Chapter 1056 The Little Miracle Doctor is Here
Although I really want to stay outside, I still have to go home for lunch at noon. The most important thing is that Mrs. Liu and the others have just arrived, so we have to have the first meal together.
The three of them went home in fear.
However, Old Madam Liu did not settle the score with them. Instead, she asked them to sit down and eat with a faint smile on her face.
After finishing the meal, she held Manbao's hand and said to them, "The new house we bought is not far from Changqing Lane. It's just around the corner. I know you are used to living here, so there is no need to move. Just come and see me every now and then."
The three of them nodded vigorously.
Madam Liu said, "I brought you a lot of things, Manbao. Your family asked me to bring you a lot of food, clothes, and daily necessities. I'll leave Madam Liu here to help you sort it out."
Manbao thanked him happily.
Madam Liu smiled and said, "You have to learn medicine and study, so your time is even tighter than theirs, so leave these mundane matters to the servants."
After she finished talking about these things, she brought up this famous event. She sighed and said, "You guys are still too careless. The capital city doesn't have many other things, but it has a lot of people. With so many people, the power becomes complicated. Now we don't know who is hiding in the dark and involved in this."
"But no matter who it is, once they investigate this matter, they will definitely find you," said Old Lady Liu. "The fact that you hired someone to spread your fame is not a very private matter. Once they investigate, they will find out for sure."
Manbao said, "Just investigate. There are so many people who have become famous this way, and we haven't broken any laws."
"It's not illegal, but there will always be people who think you don't live up to your reputation."
Bai Shan said, "But those talented people also paid people to promote their fame. I also spent money at that time. Why didn't Grandma worry that I didn't live up to my reputation?"
"Writing poetry is different from being a doctor. People can tell whether a poem is good or not by listening to it, but the quality of a doctor's skills is not something that laymen can judge," Old Lady Liu explained carefully. "So, paying someone to promote your reputation is something only scholars would do. People wouldn't think it's a bad thing if they knew about it. But if you, a doctor, were to pay someone to promote your reputation, they'd probably be even more suspicious. Some might even think your reputation isn't legitimate."
Manbao thought about it and was very open-minded. "It's okay. The young master's story is not fake. There will always be people who believe it. As long as there are people who come to me for treatment, it's fine."
She said, "The reason we want to become famous is so that we can have more opportunities to see His Majesty after we spread our fame. So as long as the fame is there, it doesn't matter whether others think it's true or not."
Madam Liu tapped her forehead and said, "This is your reputation, and you don't care about it."
"We can't control places far away. The powerful families in the capital can find out the truth by just asking at the Duke of Pi's mansion. Common people are the most likely to follow the trend. I sit in the Jishitang and have a good reputation here. It won't damage my reputation. So we won't control places far away. We'll talk about it later."
If they can't survive the killing stick, then there's nothing they can do, whether far or near.
Seeing how thoroughly she had thought things through in such a short time, and how she had even considered things she hadn't, Old Madam Liu couldn't help but sigh, patted her hands, and said, "In the blink of an eye, you've all grown up."
Manbao smiled embarrassedly.
"Since you know it in your hearts, then make your own decision. If you are unsure about something later, come back and ask us."
The three of them agreed and together they sent Madam Liu back to Daliushan Lane. There was a stream of water coming in from the moat here. The side door of the house bought by the Bai family faced the water. Because there were rows of big willow trees hanging down into the water at the end of the lane, it was called Daliushan Lane.
This house is a little smaller than the one they are renting now, but it also has two entrances, which is more than enough for Madam Liu and Zheng to live in.
She also left a room for her three children so that they could come back and stay when they were free.
Old Madam Liu led them to the main hall in the backyard. The servants had already moved all the boxes and cages into the house, but had not yet cleaned them out. As soon as the old madam and the others came back, they brought hot water and hot tea.
Madam Liu waved her hand to dismiss them. "This house's location isn't as good as the one you rented, and the lighting isn't as good as yours. Unfortunately, our own courtyard is rented out, so it's hard to chase them away. We can only wait until next year to take the house back."
She said, "That house is great. It has a small three-story building. When the time comes to take it back, you can move in and live there. It will be convenient for studying and other things."
Bai Shan hadn't visited their family's courtyard yet, so he asked curiously, "Didn't they say it had two entrances?"
"It's bigger than the two-story building. Back then, your father loved elegance, so he carved out a part of the back to make a small garden, making it the third-story building. He and his classmates, friends, and colleagues used to love to hold literary gatherings and poetry gatherings at home."
Bai Shan nodded.
Madam Liu recounted Bai Qi's time in the capital, then continued, "Although our time in the capital was short, we made some friends and have been seeing each other over the years. Your mother and I will be traveling soon, and we won't be able to take care of you."
She said, "I won't pursue what happened today, but you have to go to school tomorrow, understand?"
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang felt relieved and nodded repeatedly, indicating that they would go to school even if it rained knives from the sky tomorrow.
It was impossible to stab them, they just changed the order of getting off the car. Manbao and Daji first sent them to the Imperial College, and after seeing them go in, they drove to Jishidiang.
From a distance, before reaching the entrance of Jishiditang, she poked her head out to take a look and found that there were still quite a few people gathered in front of the entrance. Manbao whispered to Daji, "Let's go to Baohe Medical Clinic and climb to Jishiditang from there."
Daji: "...Miss Man, no matter how you get in, don't you have to open the door and sit in the hall? There will still be a traffic jam."
Manbao thought about it and felt that this was true, so there was no need for them to sneak through other pharmacies.
Daji suggested, "How about we not work today and go back home to rest for a couple of days?"
"No, instead of wasting time like this, I might as well go to the Duke of Pi's Mansion to see Su Jian." Manbao has always been a person who never gives up. The more she can't go to the pharmacy, the more she wants to go.
She glanced at the people gathered in front of her, lowered the curtain and said, "Let's go to work."
Daji hesitated for a moment and then hurried forward. Someone who was lingering in front of the Jishiditang saw the familiar carriage parked in front of the Jishiditang and his eyes immediately lit up, "The little miracle doctor is here! The little miracle doctor is here!"
The next update will be around 9pm
