Chapter 660 Suggestions
"Of course it's not normal. What else would you wish for besides praying for your family's safety when you make a wish in front of the Taoist Master?"
Manbao was thinking, and Daohe asked, "Just say what you prayed for just now."
"Oh, pray that my medical skills will be excellent, pray that I will make progress in my studies, and pray that I will become more and more beautiful."
"Look, they never pray for anything for themselves. Then, when you ask them in detail, some are bullied by their mother-in-law or sister-in-law, and they pray for family harmony; some are beaten by their husbands, and they pray for their husbands to improve their tempers so that everything will be fine; some have unfilial children, and they pray to the Taoist Master to make them change their minds and do good..." Daohe said, "I feel tired just listening to them."
He looked Manbao up and down and said, "You and I have known each other since childhood. You can't stand being wronged and you have too big a mind. If you marry into one of those families, even if you don't end up going up the mountain to ask Dao Zun for help like they did, I'm afraid it won't be easy. So you should find someone you know to marry. Your two junior brothers are often bullied by you, so they'll get used to it after a while."
Manbao said unhappily, "I didn't bully them. I'm a very reasonable person. You saw me teaching them a lesson. That, that must be because they did something bad."
Daohe just looked at her quietly.
Daoxu couldn't help but burst into laughter.
Manbao pouted, not wanting to continue the conversation, and asked, "Your temple is so popular, aren't Taoist Master Shouqing and his men planning to recruit a few more Taoist children?"
"Master said that everything depends on fate." Daohe said indifferently: "Now Master and his family can barely support us."
Daoxu smiled and gave him a push, then asked Manbao, "I heard from people down the mountain that you're studying medicine at Jishitang in Yizhou City. How's your progress?"
Taoism and medicine are inseparable, and Taoists generally have some medical skills.
Now Daoxu and Daohe are learning some medical knowledge from the masters. Sometimes the lay Buddhists who come to burn incense are praying to the gods for help because they are sick, and they will help to take a look.
Occasionally, I have to go into the mountains to collect herbs and prepare them...
It just so happens that the three of them are of similar age, so they can discuss medical skills together.
Manbao stayed on the mountain for half a day before going down the mountain with his mother. Manbao also went to see the old doctor.
This time they could only stay at home for three days. They got up early on the last day of the holiday and left as soon as the sky was light.
We have to go to the county town to pick up Mr. Zhuang first before taking the official road to Yizhou City.
As soon as she returned to Yizhou City, Manbao decided to rest for two days before visiting the library of the provincial school. She had no idea that Ji Hao had searched the entire provincial school in the past two days but couldn't find her and Bai Erlang.
So he stopped Bai Shan after school one day.
Bai Shan rolled his eyes at him unceremoniously and said, "I told you long ago that I'm not the one going to your house to complain."
The students from Class A3 saw the two of them arguing again and quickly stopped one of them and asked, "What's going on between you two? Why have you been so confrontational these past two days?"
Class A3 is different from Class C1. Although Bai Shan has only been here for two months, he has made a few friends. At least he gets along well with his classmates sitting in front, behind, and on both sides of him.
Seeing Ji Hao stopping Bai Shan, the classmates were afraid that they would fight, so they stood between them to mediate.
Ji Hao pushed aside the students who were blocking the way and said to Bai Shan, "Of course I know. I'm not looking for you to complain. I just want to ask you, where is Zhou Man? And that kid who's a little taller than you? I've searched all over the prefectural school for the past two days and haven't seen them."
Bai Shan put all his things into the book basket and looked at him with his chin raised. "I won't tell you. If you have the ability, go find it yourself."
Humph, when he gets back, he’ll tell Manbao and the others not to come to the school for the next month or two. Just wait and see how you find them.
Ji Hao was very angry. He was sure that his original guess was correct. Those two guys were not from their school.
He gritted his teeth and said, "I'm not looking for them for anything else. Don't worry, I won't cause them any trouble. After all, they helped me, so I want to thank them. Can you ask them out?"
"Thank you? Shouldn't you thank me first?" Bai Shan said, "I got your medicine from the medical officer."
He got ready and said, "Come on."
Everyone: ...
They turned to look at Ji Hao, and sure enough, he was so angry that his nose was almost crooked.
Ji Hao felt that this boy was even more arrogant than him, and was very angry. He rolled up his sleeves and was about to beat him up. His classmates quickly hugged him around the waist and said to Bai Shan, "Hurry up and leave..."
Even Song Zheng, who was sitting on the side and had nothing to do with it, couldn't stand it anymore. He stood up and grabbed Ji Hao's arm, frowning and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"This kid is too arrogant. What gives him the right?"
"Because he helped you before," Song Zheng looked at him disapprovingly, "You were going to thank him, weren't you? Who would believe you were going to thank him with that look on your face? Bai Shan isn't stupid."
Everyone nodded, yes, yes, that's right, that expression showed that he was looking for trouble, who would bring his friends out?
Ji Hao was choked and couldn't help but turn around and ask Wei Ting, "Do I look like someone who is looking for trouble?"
Wei Ting nodded heavily, "It's very similar."
Ji Hao: ...
Bai Shan picked up his school basket with a cold face and left. The classmates who remained in the classroom watched him leave and said to Ji Hao, "Ji Hao, the teacher said that Bai Shan is the youngest and asked us to take good care of him and not bully him like the students in Class C1. You used to look down on the students in Class C1 for bullying their younger children. How did you become like that?"
Ji Hao yelled, "I didn't bully him. We just had a few arguments. He even hit me, and I didn't even hit him back."
After hearing this, Ji Hao felt even more aggrieved and said, "From childhood to adulthood, who has ever beaten me for nothing? I want to thank them now, but they don't even accept it!"
Song Zheng thought for a moment and asked, "It must be because your mouth is so foul. By the way, where did the dispute begin? Why did it involve people outside the prefectural school?"
Ji Hao immediately shut up. If others knew that Bai Shan had brought outsiders into the provincial school, he would be in trouble even if there was no evidence now.
Wei Ting also knew this, and immediately coughed and said, "We just had a few arguments outside. You're right, Ji Hao is just too talkative."
"How did I owe him anything? Didn't I just say that boy was fair and pretty?"
Wei Ting couldn't help but ask, "Are those two sentences? And what man would like to be told that?"
Ji Hao sneered and said, "A real man? Just him? I'm afraid his hair hasn't even grown out yet."
Everyone: ...He has a really bad mouth, no wonder he got beaten.
Everyone went their separate ways, ignoring him.
Ji Hao touched his chest. He had been taken home for six days, plus the five-day Mid-Autumn Festival holiday. His wounds had healed, but he was still angry. He rolled up his sleeves and called a few of his good friends, "Let's go to the second grade next door to find Pei Yun."
