Chapter 1676 Take it out
Manbao turned her head and looked at him curiously. Except when he was beaten or needed something from her, Bai Erlang never called her senior sister.
Manbao glanced at her father who was facing sideways, and saw that Bai Shan seemed to be supporting him, so she turned her head and nodded to Mingda and a few others, then turned around and went downstairs.
Manbao came closer and saw that all her father's strength was on Bai Shan, so she immediately stepped forward to support him. Mr. Bai also came to his senses and reached out to help.
Everyone calmly helped Old Zhou to the main courtyard to rest.
Manbao pressed his knuckles and began to rub them. Bai Shan turned around and poured him a glass of water. He drank a sip, and then Old Zhou recovered. "Why am I dizzy again?"
Manbao was confused and asked, "Are you suffering from heatstroke again?"
Old Zhou touched his forehead and said, "After coming to the capital, I feel less healthy than before."
Mr. Bai sat aside and nodded in agreement.
Old Zhou glanced outside and saw that no one was around. He then took Manbao's hand and said, "Manbao, who are those two young ladies..."
"It's the princess," Manbao said, not understanding what was so exciting about it. "You already knew it, didn't you? I'm the imperial physician in the palace, and I've even met the emperor. Bai Shan even accompanies the prince to study. What's so strange about meeting the princess?"
Old Zhou said, "But I haven't seen her in person. Now I have met the Emperor's daughter."
Mr. Bai was also a little excited, so excited that his mouth was dry. Seeing Bai Erlang standing there with a silly smile, he pointed at the table and looked at him.
Bai Erlang scratched his head and went to pour a glass of water for his father.
Mr. Bai drank the water and was finally satisfied. He said to the three people in a friendly manner: "Since we have distinguished guests, you should go and greet them quickly. We will be in the front."
Old Zhou quickly realized what was happening and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Yes, yes, go and greet the princesses. You don't have to worry about the things ahead. By the way, do you want another table for you?"
Manbao: "Dad, we are full. Let's sit down and talk now. We will go out to play later."
"Go, go! Do you want your fourth and fifth brothers to carry your things for you? As the emperor's daughter, you can't just buy things and carry them by yourself, right?"
Bai Shan smiled and said, "Uncle Zhou, the princesses have all brought their attendants with them. Would you like to go back to your room and rest for a while?"
He looked at Manbao, actually wanting to ask if he wanted to drink some medicine.
Manbao, however, thinks it is unnecessary. All medicines are toxic, and it is not good to take medicine all the time.
So she took out her needle bag and said to Old Zhou with a smile, "Dad, let me give you a few injections."
When Old Zhou saw the long needle, he couldn't help but close his eyes.
Even though his daughter is a doctor, he rarely gets acupuncture. Even though he has experience and knows that acupuncture does not hurt, when he sees the long needle, he still can't help but tense up and close his eyes.
Manbao rolled up his sleeves, pressed him, and then gave him an acupuncture needle. He talked to him to relax him, "Dad, who did you toast to just now?"
"County Magistrate Yang, he's taken good care of our Qili Village in the past. I've heard about County Magistrate Tang as well. You guys are all very grateful for his care after you came to Beijing, so Master Bai and I went to toast you two. Last time they came for the wedding, there were so many people at home that we didn't have much time to pay them any attention."
While they were talking, Manbao finished the acupuncture. Old Zhoutou felt a little better. Manbao then put away the needle and said, "Dad, the princesses are all fine. You don't have to be afraid of them."
Old Zhou swallowed and nodded, "I'm not afraid."
But he still quietly went to find Qian, and whispered: "Don't let the children offend the noble. Tell Lixue and the others not to run into the garden unless necessary."
Qian agreed, as she also felt that the princess was very precious.
Mingda and the others knew nothing about this, and they even went to visit Manbao's garden with everyone. After all, it was a house that was snatched away by Duke Zhao and given to the prince, so the scenery of the garden was quite nice.
After Manbao and his friends moved in, they basically did not change the scenery of the garden. Only Fang and his friends chose two plots of land near the wall, removed the not very beautiful and valuable flowers and plants, and planted vegetables.
I heard that Fang is planning to bury some lotus roots in the lake recently, so that there might be lotus pods to eat next year.
Mingda stood by the lake and looked at it, then smiled and said, "Although this lake is a little small, the scenery is pretty good."
Manbao nodded. "That's right. I was thinking of diverting the water from the lake when I had enough money, and then walking around every yard and then back to the lake."
She said, "You don't know, there's a stream running through the yard where my parents live. Although it's small, it's cooler than other yards in the summer."
Mingda turned her head to look at her yard and said with a smile, "This is a big project. I'm afraid it will take a lot of work."
Manbao nodded. "We haven't found a good solution yet, so we haven't moved yet. Who knows, maybe in the future we'll meet a powerful master who can direct the water to every courtyard without any major intervention?"
After they talked for a while, Chang Yu said eagerly, "Let's go, let's go to the posthouse to see the handsome man from Goguryeo."
After thinking about it, they agreed since there was nothing much to do at home.
The imperial court's posthouse specially set up to entertain foreign guests was not far from the Imperial College. It was just one street up from the Imperial College. It was much more lively there than the Imperial College. Many teahouses, restaurants and shops were located nearby, allowing envoys from vassal states to fully experience the prosperity of their Great Jin.
Because the sun was strong, Manbao and his friends did not ride horses but came in a carriage. Mingda and Changyu each occupied one side of the carriage window, staring at the bustling street market outside.
"So the posthouse is here. These envoys from foreign vassal states are truly blessed."
Manbao thought so too, and pointed to a roadside shop and said, "The mutton soup there is good. You can come and have some when it gets colder. The meat pie there is also good, but the best thing about it is the naan. It's baked crispy and fragrant..."
He pointed to a roadside stall and said, "The wontons here are especially good. Doctor Ding and his colleagues have paid their pharmacist several times to come here and buy a bowl of wontons..."
Manbao knew everything like the back of her hand. Mingda and Changyu had been looking at the stalls selling all kinds of gadgets on the roadside, but after she said that, they couldn't help but look at the restaurants on both sides.
The carriage stopped not far from the posthouse. Daji asked them, "Miss Man, do you want to go in directly?"
It was impossible to go in directly. They didn't tell their father and mother that they came out this time to see handsome men, so the two of them pushed each other and bumped into each other, and then looked at Manbao together.
Manbao leaned back and looked at them warily, "What do you want to do?"
Mingda smiled and said, "It's difficult for us to get in with our identities. Can you go in and take a look for us?"
Manbao said: "My eyes cannot replace your eyes."
"Well, if you've found them, bring them out," Chang Yu said. "Just say you're inviting them to tea and bring them out for us to have a look."
Mingda nodded repeatedly.
See you at 4 p.m.
