Chapter 3367 Extra Strong Sister 21
"He had originally planned to take the imperial examination this year, but because of his injury he couldn't go. So he decided to travel and study, thinking he would do so after his injury healed."
Zhou Man's eyes lit up slightly, "Studying abroad is also very good."
Seeing this, Cui couldn't help but smile. "I think he's just like you. He's become wild after going out. Since he went out to study three years ago, he's been thinking about going out again since he came back. He even fell behind in his studies. Otherwise, he wouldn't have thought about the imperial examination until this year."
At this age, Yang Heshu was already the county magistrate in Luojiang County.
Zhou Man didn't expect that the fire could burn him, and he couldn't help muttering, "Studying abroad is so fun."
She had never really studied abroad before, and going to the Western Regions was half a study abroad trip, and she was really happy at that time.
Cui seemed to have heard it, and couldn't help but say, "When the eldest sister and the others grow up and want to go out to study, you will know what I think."
"I would definitely be very happy," Zhou Man said. "Just thinking about it makes me happy. If they all go out to study, then Bai Shan and I will be free. Then we can resign from our official positions and travel around..."
Just thinking about it made his heart surge with excitement. Zhou Man couldn't help but sigh, "I wonder when I'll have this opportunity again."
Cui: ...
Bai Jingxing, who had just entered the Imperial College, was also thinking about this question, "I wonder when we can go out to study, without our parents."
Li Erniang was speechless for a long while. She stretched out her hand and waved in front of her eyes, saying, "What are you thinking about? We just started school."
Bai Jingxing: "When you entered the school today, didn't you hear people in the next courtyard saying that two senior students took a leave of absence this year and applied to go on study tours?"
Li Erniang was envious when she heard this. "I heard that she took the examination for female officials after returning from her studies. It would be great if she could be assigned to the Hanlin Academy or the Imperial Medical Bureau. The Six Ministries would also be good. However, it is difficult for female officials to get promoted in the Six Ministries. It is not as smooth as in the Hanlin Academy and the Imperial Medical Bureau."
"What's so fun about being an examiner?" Bai Jingxing said, "My mother spends half the year regretting becoming an official. I don't want to be an official. I just want to travel and study."
"Aren't you still determined to heal illnesses and save lives like your mother, and achieve unparalleled achievements?"
"Who says that to cure illnesses and save lives and achieve supreme achievements, one must become an official?" Bai Jingxing said, "My mother most wants to be a traveling doctor, seeing all the patients in the world, digging up all the plants and catching all the birds and beasts in the world."
Li Erniang was shocked. "You, you want to be a traveling doctor?"
"Medicine is still a little difficult, but traveling is not difficult," Bai Jingxing said: "I plan to travel and study first, and then become a traveling doctor after I have mastered the medical skills."
"No, when I asked you a while ago, you said you wanted to pass the exam to become a doctor in the Imperial Medical Bureau and succeed your mother."
Bai Jingxing: "Haven't I figured it out yet?"
Li Erniang: "What made you figure it out?"
"It's my mother, the one you respect and admire the most!" Bai Jingxing propped up his chin and said, "She has been writing a plan these past two days, striving to resign from her official position and travel around as soon as possible. To this end, she also asked me and my two silly brothers to grow up quickly."
Li Erniang: ...
Bai Jingxing's eyes sparkled, "I just realized that my mother's wish was not to be fulfilled in the officialdom, but in the martial arts world, in the world."
"At that moment, it was as if a small seedling in my heart had broken through the soil and suddenly grew into a towering tree. I then realized that this was what I longed for most in my heart, so I immediately made it my life goal."
Li Erniang and the others surrounding her shuddered, touched the goose bumps on their arms, shivered, and asked, "Could you please not be so cheesy all of a sudden?"
Bai Jingxing glanced at them and said, "Could you please show some support and stop ruining the atmosphere? I've told you everything I feel deep in my heart."
Li Erniang: "I think you'd better think about becoming an official. That's more reliable."
"Yes, your father is the Prime Minister, and your mother is the Director of the Imperial Court. With such good resources, it would be a shame if you don't become an official."
"What's a pity? My father said that life is how a person lives. You know best what you feel in your heart. Just do what you want to do and don't worry too much about other things." Bai Jingxing said, "My father said that my mother was too concerned about other things back then. That's why she made a mistake and became deeply mired in the officialdom and couldn't extricate herself."
Everyone: ...
Anyway, Bai Jingxing figured it out, and from then on, she became even more carefree. Yang Qiong couldn't help but complain to Yang Zezhi when she got home, "She even asked me to protect her, but she just walked around the Imperial College like a tyrant, not afraid of offending anyone. She's so carefree that even the doctors can't argue with her. Yet, she's not afraid of being expelled. She's so willful."
Yang Zezhi was puzzled. "Before, although she was lively and cute, she was still a little reserved. From what you said, she is very different from before?"
"It's so different. Oh, the school is closed in two days, and mother wants to treat Uncle Bai and his family to dinner. She will come then, and you will know when you see her."
On the day off, Yang Zezhi indeed saw someone. His injuries had improved a lot now and he could move around in a wheelchair. As long as he didn't move too much, it wouldn't pull on the wound on his chest.
As soon as he saw Bai Jingxing, he felt that she was more cheerful than before.
She used to be lively, but that liveliness seemed to be restrained. Now the restraints seem to have disappeared, and she has a free and unrestrained aura.
This was something Yang Zezhi had wanted for many years but hadn't had. He was slightly stunned.
Bai Jingxing had already rolled up his sleeves and happily ran into the open pavilion. He walked around the steamer baskets on the table and asked, "Are these all crabs?"
Cui smiled and agreed, saying to her, "This is river crab. We also have sea crabs sent from the seaside. They are being cooked in the kitchen. You can try them later to see the difference. But girls shouldn't eat too much, so don't be greedy."
Bai Jingxing agreed with a grin.
After everyone was seated, Yang Zezhi picked up the wine jug beside him and poured her a glass of wine. Seeing her looking at him, he smiled and said, "This is fruit wine, not intoxicating."
Bai Jingxing thanked him happily. Seeing that the adults were chatting, she also went to chat with him, "Brother Yang, I heard that you are going to propose to Sister Zhao, right?"
Yang Zezhi: "...Who told you that? How come I don't know?"
Bai Shan and Zhou Man, who were sitting opposite her, also looked over and stared at her with frowns.
Bai Jingxing paused as he pinched the crab leg, trying not to look sideways. "Isn't that so? Then maybe I heard it wrong."
Bai Shan and Zhou Man suddenly turned to look at Bai Changsong.
Little Bai Changsong lowered his head to eat, but finally, unable to bear the pressure, he looked up and said, "I heard it from Uncle Zhao Liu and my parents. He even said that he would treat me to wedding candy when the matter was settled."
Zhou Man: "We were in the study at that time. How did you hear it?"
Bai Shan punished him directly, "Go back and copy the Hundred Family Names. It's okay to eavesdrop on the adults' conversation, but you actually spread rumors."
