Chapter 1599: Thanks
After being persuaded, Mrs. Cheng felt more at ease and closer to Zhou's family.
It happened that Mr. Zhuang also came back, so the families got together for dinner.
Mr. Zhuang didn't expect that after just staying out for one night, he would see so many people and see such big changes when he came back.
However, after going through so much trouble, he quickly came to his senses. Old Zhou took the medicine and felt much better now.
After all, it's just heatstroke, and you'll be fine once you get over the pain.
He has great respect and gratitude for Mr. Zhuang, and believes that without Mr. Zhuang, Manbao would not be where it is today.
So at dinner that night, when talking about Manbao's current official rank, Old Zhoutou said directly to Manbao: "Quickly kowtow to your master. If it weren't for your master, how could you be where you are today?"
Manbao stood up and knelt to kowtow. Mr. Zhuang quickly reached out to stop her, but Old Zhou held her back and said, "Mr. Zhuang, let her kowtow. This child has been studying with you since she could talk. As her father, I didn't teach her anything. You taught her everything. Now that she's an official, she must kowtow."
Mr. Zhuang looked helpless and said to Bai Shan, "Hurry up and help Manbao up."
Bai Shan looked at his future father-in-law, then at his master, and then at his future daughter-in-law who had already knelt down and kowtowed, but did not extend her hand. So he also knelt down beside Manbao.
They both kowtowed to Mr. Zhuang.
Bai Erlang stood aside with his eyes wide open, then hesitantly turned around and asked his father, "Dad, should I kneel?"
Mr. Bai felt a little depressed.
Bai Dalang, who was standing behind him, kicked him directly. Bai Erlang staggered forward two steps and knelt down.
The three of them kowtowed in a chaotic manner. Mr. Zhuang was held by Old Zhou and had no choice but to endure it. After the three of them finished kowtowing, he said, "Get up."
The three of them then stood up with a smile.
Mr. Zhuang sighed, turned around and said to Old Zhou, "Brother Zhou Jin, Manbao's success today is largely due to her own abilities..."
Old Zhou insisted, "Didn't she learn these skills from you?"
Mr. Zhuang laughed and said, "I only taught her literature and worldly affairs, but I didn't teach her medicine..."
Old Zhou shook his head and said, "If you hadn't taught her to read and write, how would she have understood medical books? If you hadn't taught her how to behave, how would she have learned so many medical skills from others?"
He said, "Although our Manbao is the reincarnation of a fairy and is very smart, she is still a mortal in this life. She can't do anything without someone to teach her."
Qian on the side nodded.
Bai Shan then whispered to Man Bao, "If Uncle Zhou hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten that you are the reincarnation of a fairy."
Even a reincarnated fairy wouldn't be as smart as him.
Manbao gave him a rather resentful look.
The Cheng family heard this for the first time and was amazed, "Master Zhou is the reincarnation of a fairy?"
Now, there was no need for Qian to say anything, Fang and others could just tell the legend that had been circulating in the village for years and seemed to be true more and more.
In the end, Mrs. Cheng's eyes changed when she looked at Manbao.
She thought to herself: No wonder so many imperial doctors couldn't cure the prince's illness. Zhou Man had only been in Beijing for less than a year and he had already made the princess pregnant. It turned out that she was the reincarnation of a fairy. Was this to save face in front of the Taoist Master?
Mrs. Cheng took her daughter's hand and decided to let her spend more time with her in the future. After all, Bai Dalang was also Mr. Zhuang's student, so they were still senior and junior students.
When you think about it this way, the relationship between the two families is indeed very close.
Mrs. Cheng also had a huge smile on her face.
Mr. Zhuang had a lot to say, but when he saw that the topic had turned to what Manbao was in charge of in the fairy world in his previous life, he shut up and said nothing.
Bai Shan and the other two quietly retreated to the side and talked in private.
Bai Erlang breathed a sigh of relief and grumbled softly, "Next time you're going to kowtow, tell me in advance. My father looked at me with a knife in his eyes just now, you know?"
Bai Shan then looked at Man Bao.
Manbao pushed the pot back and whispered, "My father asked me to kneel. It was originally my own business. Who asked Bai Shan to kneel too?"
Bai Shan whispered, "The master asked me to hold you, but your father won't let me. So who should I listen to? I can only kneel down."
He glanced at Bai Erlang and said, "You are so tactless. Your senior sisters and brothers have already knelt. Why don't you hurry up and kneel down?"
Bai Erlang felt extremely frustrated and whispered, "Blame me? You two are not only senior brothers and sisters, but also engaged husband and wife. How should I know whether I should kneel or not?"
Bai Shan thought about it and said, "Next time I'll give you a signal. If I'm not looking at you, don't kneel. If I'm looking at you, come over and kneel with me."
Bai Erlang hummed in agreement, rubbed his butt calmly and said, "My elder brother must be seeking revenge."
While they were whispering to each other, Old Zhou was still thanking Mr. Zhuang, "This time when we came to Beijing, your Dalang asked us to bring you some things."
Mr. Zhuang happened to be unable to fit in with the conversation between Mrs. Liu and the others, so he took the opportunity to say goodbye and go with Old Zhou and the others to see the things their family had brought him.
Mr. Bai didn't want to sit with a group of women, so he took the opportunity to get up and leave with them.
When Bai Shan saw this, he immediately pulled Manbao and Bai Erlang. The three of them looked at each other and immediately followed them out quietly.
Bai Dalang hesitated for a moment and glanced at Miss Cheng Er who was half hiding behind Mrs. Cheng. Because they were about to get married, although they had dinner together tonight, they still couldn't talk to each other.
And because of customs, they couldn't even look at her openly. Seeing that she was a little uncomfortable, Bai Dalang didn't want to stay any longer, so he slipped away too.
As soon as he left, Mrs. Cheng no longer forced her daughter to hide, and began to sit down and talk openly with Mrs. Liu, Zheng, Qian and others.
The two boxes that Zhuang Dalang asked Lao Zhoutou and the others to bring were full of clothes and shoes, as well as some homemade smoked meat and smoked sausages, all of which were Mr. Zhuang's favorite foods.
There are clothes for three seasons, including summer, autumn and winter, and more than ten pairs of shoes that fit the feet are also made.
There was also a letter.
Zhuang Dalang had received his father's letter and also learned from the Bai and Zhou families that his father had become an official. He expressed his happiness for his father, but also advised him that as he grew older, if he felt tired, he should resign from his official position.
He did not agree to let his eldest son go to Beijing to study. Although he was tempted for a moment, he felt a little reluctant when he thought about his child going so far away from home.
Moreover, he had walked the road to and from the capital. Although he was still young at the time and his memory was a little confused, he knew that it was not easy on the road, and he did not want his children to suffer such hardship again.
So let the children go to the county school.
After reading the letter, Mr. Zhuang sighed inwardly and said to Old Zhou, who was complaining to Mr. Bai about Zhou Silang's disappearance, "The child is still young. It's a good thing that he wants to go out for a walk."
