Chapter 642 Climbing the Wall
In the end, Wei Chen was stopped by the doorman carrying an empty book basket.
After checking his wooden sign, the concierge said, "This isn't your sign. Are you a resident student? Where's your sign?"
Wei Chen looked at Bai Shan with a pale face.
Bai Shan walked past him without even looking at him, with an expression that said, "I don't know him."
The concierge followed his gaze and stopped him when he saw Bai Shanhou. "Classmate, do you know this man?"
Bai Shan raised his eyelids, glanced at Wei Chen, and nodded, "I know him, we're in the same class."
The concierge narrowed his eyes, "You helped him skip school?"
Bai Shan shook his head, "I'm not familiar with it."
Wei Chen glared.
The concierge asked, "Does he live outside or in school?"
Bai Shan continued: "I'm not familiar with it."
Wei Chen secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly said, "This is really my wooden sign. Perhaps it's because I've grown a bit, so you think the description doesn't look like me..."
The concierge waved his hand to interrupt him, "I know this Ji Hao."
Wei Chen: ...
Doorman: "He just came in with a book basket."
Wei Chen: “…”
Bai Shan had already floated past him with her basket of books, without even stopping.
Wei Chen could only watch his back disappear, unable to drag him down with him.
He could only sigh quietly and plead guilty.
The concierge also withdrew his gaze and said something unusual, "Do you know why I checked your wooden sign?"
"Yes, why are you checking my wooden sign? There are so many students coming in."
"Because you've been talking to Bai Shan." The doorman said, "For three months now, except for the beginning when I had no memory of him, every time I saw him later, whether going to school or coming home, he always went in and out alone. This morning, you were there too, and you looked a little unfamiliar, so I couldn't help myself."
Wei Chen: ...He hated me so much. If he had known, he would not have gone in with Bai Shan.
Bai Shan of course heard this reason afterwards and secretly took note of it. It seemed that in the future, if Manbao wanted to use a wooden sign to enter and exit the provincial school, he would have to stay away from him.
"How will the supervisor punish you?"
"What other punishment can I get? Kneel before the Master's portrait, copy the text, and copy the school rules." Wei Chen said with his head hung low. "You're so cruel! You actually just left me alone."
"If I don't leave you behind, won't I be punished along with you? Then who will help you copy the books?"
"Huh? You want to help me copy the book? That's great," Wei Chen became excited, then thought of something and felt disappointed. "No, your handwriting is different from mine. The supervisor will definitely compare them."
Bai Shan stretched out his hand and said, "Show me your handwriting."
Wei Chen happily showed him his handwriting. Bai Shan frowned after reading it and said, "You are so much older than Manbao and me, how come your handwriting is so bad?"
Wei Chen: ...
Bai Shan frowned, "I may not be able to imitate it. I can imitate Manbao's handwriting, but our teacher can see it, but we can't tell the difference. I can also imitate Bai Er's, but Manbao can see it, let alone the teacher..."
Hearing his unstable level, Wei Chen immediately hesitated to entrust him with such an important task. He pulled the manuscript back and said, "Don't harm me. If the supervisor finds out I'm cheating, the punishment will be even heavier."
Bai Shan said regretfully, "Then it seems you can only copy it yourself."
Wei Chen was very unhappy.
Bai Shan asked, "Should I bring you some snacks to comfort you?"
Wei Chen looked at him and said, "If someone shows kindness without any reason, he is either a traitor or a thief. Tell me, what do you want?"
"Let's go to the library together tomorrow. It must be boring for you to copy books alone, so we can accompany you." Bai Shan said, "It just so happens that we have homework to do after school, so we can do it in school instead."
Wei Chen guessed what he was going to do and was not happy about it. "What if the supervisor catches us..."
Bai Shan: "It has nothing to do with you. I will take full responsibility."
Wei Chen hesitated.
Bai Shan said, "An ice cream from Mi Xin Tang!"
“Two!”
Bai Shan raised his hand, "Deal."
Wei Chen clapped his hands and said, "I should have said three times earlier."
"If you say so, I'll chop it down too." Bai Shan patted his butt and stood up, saying, "I'm going home. See you tomorrow."
The next day, Manbao had lunch at the pharmacy, asked Dr. Ji some questions, took note, and packed up to go home.
Doctor Ji asked curiously, "Why are you going home so early today?"
Manbao explained, "We have a lot of schoolwork lately, so I'm afraid we have to go back early."
Doctor Ji nodded, knowing that in addition to learning medical skills here, she also had to study with Mr. Zhuang. She was learning very quickly now, mostly through case studies, so there was not much he could teach her besides seeing patients, but he did not stop her.
As for preparing medicinal materials, that is the expertise of herbal farmers and drug dealers. As doctors, they basically only need to know how to distinguish between good and bad.
Manbao returned to the courtyard, rested for a while, and then ate some snacks while listening to Mr. Zhuang's class or organizing his own manuscripts.
Feeling that Bai Shan was about to finish school, she changed her clothes and went to find Daji to go to the provincial school together.
Mr. Zhuang had no classes at Dazhi Academy today, so he stood by the window with his hands behind his back, watching her leave. He thought of something, shook his head and smiled, then returned to his desk and sat down to continue writing his lesson plan.
Manbao said to Daji, "Let's go pick up Bai Erlang first."
Daji nodded.
After picking up Bai Erlang, Daji drove to the West Lane of Fuxue without them saying anything.
The two of them couldn't help laughing when they saw it, and climbed out of the car. They patted Daji on the shoulder and said, "Daji, you are very smart."
Daji remained silent. He actually wanted to be a little dumber so that he wouldn't have so many worries.
Arriving at West Lane, everyone began craning their necks to find a spot. Manbao spotted a piece of sky-blue cloth sticking out from the top of a wall. It waved as if it wasn't conspicuous enough. Manbao immediately said, "There it is, there it is."
Daji naturally saw it as well and drove forward.
When they got closer, they found a pile of straw under the wall, half as high as the wall. Manbao's eyes sparkled as he looked at it, "This means we won't need the stools we brought."
Bai Erlang also said: "This is better than a stool."
The two of them jumped out of the car, climbed onto the straw pile, and then jumped slightly, reaching out to grab the top of the wall...
The two of them were very naughty when they were in Qili Village, and they often did things like climbing trees. In addition, they were young and very flexible. Manbao was pushed by Bai Erlang, so although she was small, she still climbed up the wall.
Manbao sat down on the wall panting, and after he was firmly seated, he reached out to pull Bai Erlang.
Daji stood at the foot of the wall and looked up, neither stopping nor helping.
Bai Erlang was a little taller than her. He held her with one hand and hugged the top of the wall with the other. After a while, they climbed up and the two of them looked down.
Bai Shan and Wei Chen were standing at the bottom of the wall, smiling at them and waving, "Hurry and jump down."
The next update will be around 9pm
