621 The Grand Master Officially Takes Over the Young Disciple
At dusk, Ping An returned to the Marquis of Jing'an's Mansion with his master.
As soon as I entered the courtyard, I heard Mu Yang's loud laughter.
Sun Sicheng's lips immediately raised: "Mu Yang, grandpa is back, where are you?"
"Grandfather, I'm here. I'm playing with the master." Mu Yang ran out from the corner with a smile, followed by Dean Wang.
"Sir, you are here."
"Mr. Wang, please come in and sit down." Sun Sicheng hurriedly stepped forward to greet him and picked up his beloved grandson.
No one in the Sun family had the heart to eat. The old man who rushed back from the village kept looking at his eldest grandson and Ping An. The two most important men in the family had to go to the worst-hit areas. Their Sun family was a medical family, and no one knew better than them what would happen in the disaster area under the scorching sun.
So it’s even more worrying.
What's even more worrying is that I have no choice. In fact, Siyuan is right about one thing. It might be better to live somewhere else away from the capital.
Awu naturally knew about this as well.
But she couldn't show any anxiety yet. She couldn't let her husband go to the disaster area with worries. She had to let him concentrate on his work so that he could return home safely.
After dinner, the Sun family’s wife took the children to the backyard, while the men discussed the outing in the main hall in the front yard.
Dean Wang analyzed the situation from all aspects and gave his own opinions.
It was a foregone conclusion that Ping'an and Sicheng would go to Jiangnan. The only thing he could do was to ask the emperor to lighten the burden on their shoulders.
Because of the savior, their two families have been promoted from earl to marquis, and Ping An has been promoted from the sixth rank to the fifth rank.
If you do well on this trip, you will only get some rewards such as gold, silver, and farmland. Other rewards are already available for the time being, and it is impossible to get a higher reward.
But both families have no shortage of money, and upgrading too quickly is not a good thing. Is it necessarily a good thing to have everything going on?
Of course not.
Although General Hao is a military general, he is actually a shrewd and skilled martial artist, and he has three thousand elite soldiers around him. If he really falls ill, Sicheng and Ping'an will be able to treat him immediately.
"Sicheng, Ping'an, we don't seek to achieve any merit on this trip. It would be great if we can save as many people as possible while protecting ourselves and our people.
This requires you to be ruthless. If there are too many patients and only a few good medicines are left, then these medicines must be kept for your own people. Even a good cook cannot cook without rice." Dean Wang looked at Ping An, "Ping An, Mu Yang, what are your plans?"
"Sir, I plan to send it to the farm. My farm is very tight and can follow the Grand Master."
He hadn't finished his words.
Dean Wang said, "I plan to move to the manor to take care of your master. Mu Yang will be placed in my small courtyard. When I am on duty during the day, I will let your master take care of him. Your master's wife will also live in the manor most of the time. I plan to open Mu Yang's eyes this year."
Ping An stood up, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed: "Ping An thanks you, sir. I will leave Mu Yang to you. I will ask Mu Yang to serve you tea later."
Dean Wang raised his lips and said, "Whether he offers tea or not, he is still my legitimate disciple."
Sun Yinan's eyes turned red, and he smiled and said, "Master, can you bring Changqing's child with you later?"
Dean Wang stood up and said, "Let's talk about it later. Now he is still a little brat who peed on me. I am going back. I will move to the manor tomorrow. Muyang, you can take me to the manor the day after tomorrow."
Ping An nodded, and they would set off in five days.
It is estimated that the imperial court is waiting for a letter from the Yuhang government. They can prepare in advance, but they cannot assemble a large group of troops based on a letter from Huo Zhi alone.
Otherwise they would have to set off in three days at the latest.
"Sir, I'll take you back."
Dean Wang said nothing. He really had this intention, but he still had to give more instructions for safety on the way. He felt distressed.
It is not a good thing to raise your child too well, because the court will think of you when anything happens.
Sun Yinan waited for Ping'an and Dean Wang to leave the courtyard. He said to Changqing with a serious face, "Changqing, I warn you again. Go back and have a good talk with your wife. Don't spoil your child too much. Spoiling a child is like harming him.
Mu Yang is only half a year older than Bai Qing. He runs around everywhere, eats by himself, and has memorized the names of medicines. Look at Bai Qing, who needs to be held all day long."
Chang Qing lowered his eyes and said, "Yes, Grandfather."
He also envied Ping An very much. Mu Yang was as dazzling as a child prodigy. How could he look like a two-and-a-half-year-old? He was as sensible as a five-year-old child.
My son is indeed too spoiled. Not only his wife, but also his grandparents and mother are spoiled too much. To be honest, I and my father are the only ones who don't spoil Bai Qing.
Before leaving, Sun Sicheng said, "Changqing, if you want your son to have a promising future and Bai Qing to study under a great master, you should not spoil him from now on, otherwise you will never be able to catch up with Mu Yang even if you flatter him."
After saying that, he ran straight to his yard without looking back.
Awu is pregnant, and Mu Yang has been sleeping with her and her husband these days. The little one is very attached to him.
Sun Sicheng quickened his pace, feeling sad. He was going on a long journey in a few days, and when he came back, he was afraid that Mu Yang would have forgotten that his grandfather was the one who loved him the most.
The old man hasn't said a word since Mr. Wang left.
He needed to think about what else he should bring for Sicheng and Ping'an, and he would have to look through his collection himself tomorrow.
The old man stood up and walked out, and Sun Yinan and Chang Qing hurriedly helped him up.
The old master said, "No need to help me, I'm in good health now. Changqing, your father is right. Bai Qing should not be spoiled too much. He is your eldest son and your father's eldest grandson. If he is unable to support the Marquisate in the future, he will be laughed at."
Chang Qing blushed.
He himself was neither good at literature nor martial arts, and his medical skills were not very good. It could be said that he was far inferior to Ping An in every aspect.
Just like his father once had a heart-to-heart talk with him, he said that his ability was limited and he still had his father and Ping An to help him. But when his father got old, he couldn't let Ping An's son help Bai Qing anymore, he had to let the child strive for success.
I safely escorted the gentleman to the Wang family’s gate.
Before getting off the car, Dean Wang spoke to him again.
"Ping An, when you get to Jiangnan, don't try to be brave. Don't go to places where people are sick. Think more about your parents, your son, and me and your master. Otherwise, you will be unfilial."
"Sir, Ping'an will listen to you. You just stay at home and wait for us to come back. I will try to go home before the end of the year. Awu's due date is after the Lantern Festival.
Sir, Qingshi and the others won't go, they are all in the hospital, go and see them if you feel uncomfortable, I will ask them to come to the village to check in a few days."
"Okay." Mr. Wang turned and walked into the yard without even looking back.
The disciple was leaving again in a few days, but he was already worried.
There was nothing else he could do but take good care of Mu Yang and try not to let Ping An and A Wu worry about the child.
