Chapter 1324 Reason for Refusing Marriage 2
Bai Shan stopped Bai Erlang who was trying to provoke Bai Dalang and said to Bai Dalang, "Cousin, this is your reason for rejecting the marriage."
Bai Dalang: "...Do you think my mother will believe it?"
Not to mention Bai Shan and Bai Erlang, even Man Bao shook his head, "No."
She said, "I told my father and the others about it. My mother and eldest sister-in-law believed it, but my father and brothers didn't believe it at all. Especially my father, he even asked me quietly if my second aunt's family had offended me."
Bai Dalang said, "If I dare to use this excuse, my mother will think so too."
Manbao sighed, "Sure enough, it's not that easy to be a smart person."
Bai Shan laughed for a while, then said to Bai Dalang, "That's easy. Just tell your uncle that you want to marry a daughter of an official family. It will also help your career in the future. You don't need to tell him, your uncle will convince your aunt."
Bai Dalang: "...What a stupid idea! Where can I marry a daughter of an official family?"
If there were no daughters of officials, would he still marry?
Bai Shan broke off the skin of the toasted steamed bun and ate it bit by bit, smiling and saying, "What's so difficult about this? Let my cousin spread the word, and the ladies will come to us."
Bai Dalang looked incredulous.
Bai Shan said: "Don't underestimate yourself. You are now a student of Simenxue, your younger brother is a student of Taixue, and your cousin is a student of Guozixue. Do you know what this means?"
Bai Dalang was slightly stunned.
Bai Shan ate all the steamed buns, clapped his hands and said, "This means that as long as the three of us brothers don't die young or get into trouble in the Imperial College and get expelled, we will all become officials in the future."
Bai Dalang seemed to be lost in thought.
Bai Erlang looked at Bai Shan, then at his elder brother.
Manbao also finished the steamed bun in his hand and said, "Your Bai family is at least in the clan history. Even if your branch has split off, it's still possible to say that there's a lady from a small aristocratic family. If it's not a noble family, it's even easier to say that there's a lady from an official family."
Because in the eyes of the world, a noble family is much more valuable than an official position.
Because they were all from the same family, Bai Erlang, who had no feelings for Longzhou, was stunned for a moment. Then he realized, "I am also from a noble family?"
Bai Dalang was shocked. Like his brother, he always felt that he was the son of a country gentry. Only now did he realize that their branch was indeed from the Longzhou Bai family, and the Longzhou Bai family was indeed in the clan history, even though it was in a very corner, ranked very low, with only two short sentences, but they were still from the same clan.
Bai Dalang rolled his eyes and thought, opening the door to a new world.
Manbao looked at the time, reached out and twisted the needle on his body and pulled it out, felt his pulse and waited for a quarter of an hour, then changed the needle and gave him another set of acupuncture.
Bai Dalang was still thinking, and Bai Shan turned to ask her, "Will you continue the acupuncture like this tomorrow?"
Manbao shook his head and said, "It depends. If the pain has stopped, he'll take medicine and have acupuncture twice a day. I'll go find some moxa sticks and give him some moxibustion. He should be fine in four or five days."
Manbao raised his head and looked at Bai Dalang sympathetically. Bai Dalang sensed something was wrong and couldn't help but tense his back. "What's wrong?"
Manbao said, "You have to pay attention to your diet during these ten days. Even if your appearance improves, the disease inside won't be cleared up so quickly. You're having blood in your stool, which means your intestines are festering and bleeding. It will take time for them to recover."
Bai Dalang didn't grasp her underlying meaning for a moment and nodded, "I'll pay attention to my diet."
Manbao said, "There are only seven days left until the New Year."
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang also looked at Bai Dalang with sympathy.
Bai Dalang: ...
He gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not a child anymore. I won't indulge in food."
Three people: No way!
If you are alone, you can just not eat it, but when the whole family is together, or even the whole village is enjoying delicious food, and the air is filled with fragrance, but you can only smell it but not eat it, it is extremely painful.
When talking about the New Year, the three of them had countless things to talk about. Bai Shan said, "I saw a recipe for stir-fried candy in the book you gave me last time. I asked Aunt Rong to figure it out, but unfortunately she hasn't figured it out yet. Do you want to let your sister-in-law try it? I saw the description, and it looks delicious."
Bai Erlang was also tempted, "I've seen it too, why not try it on my cook?"
When it comes to eating this kind of thing, the more the better.
Seeing Bai Dalang looking at them, Manbao said, "You can't eat sugar. Oh, and you can't eat tofu or greasy things. So you can't eat anything meaty..."
Bai Dalang only realized the seriousness of the situation now, "Then what can I eat?"
"Have some white porridge and steamed buns. Actually, big white steamed buns are quite delicious. They become very sweet after chewing them a few times. White rice is also sweet."
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang nodded in agreement and looked at him with sympathy.
Bai Dalang found their expressions very irritating, so he turned his head away and ignored the three of them.
Because they had already slept, although only for two hours, the four of them were still very energetic and didn't feel sleepy for a while.
While talking to them, Manbao kept an eye on the time and occasionally twisted the needle for Bai Dalang. When she started to leave the needle in place, the room was already filled with the aroma of medicine, and the medicine on the stove was gurgling quietly.
Bai Shan estimated that the time was almost up, so he yawned, poured out the medicine and set it aside to cool, ready to give it to him later.
After Bai Dalang drank the medicine and removed the needle, he felt that his stomach, which had been very hungry, was full. He yawned and wanted to sleep.
The three of them did not disturb him. They moved the brazier away from the bed and got up. Manbao went back to sleep next door, while Bai Shan and the others continued to lie on the wooden couch.
He asked, "Do you need another injection later?"
Manbao checked the time and said, "It's the second day now. I checked his pulse and it's fine. Maybe it's not necessary. But you should also pay attention. If he feels any pain or gets up, be sure to call me."
Bai Shan and Bai Erlang agreed.
Manbao yawned and went back to the next room, and got straight into the quilt. The quilt was already cold, and it took her a while to fall asleep.
Bai Dalang's condition was obviously more urgent and serious than Manbao had expected. When it was almost dawn, he got up and went to the toilet again. Manbao felt his pulse with half-closed eyes, gave him another injection, took out the residue of the first prescription, boiled it again and fed it to him, then gave him a second set of acupuncture. When he turned around, it was already dawn outside.
She couldn't help but yawned loudly. Seeing this, Bai Shan and Bai Erlang, who were drowsy beside her, also yawned loudly. On the contrary, Bai Dalang on the bed was very energetic, staring at the mosquito net above his head with his eyes bright and sparkling.
Sprinkle flowers and ask for monthly tickets
No, Bai Dalang is begging for monthly tickets pitifully
