Your third senior brother's aunt is seriously ill, so I'm going to greet them.
Please tell everyone that I should be back in two or three days.
By the way, we're about to set sail, so you need to practice your swimming skills. I'll definitely be back before we leave.
Ning Bao nodded obediently after hearing Bai Ming's words.
"Yes, yes, don't worry, senior brother, I will practice diligently."
For some reason, Ningbao felt a little panicked after learning that her third senior brother's aunt was seriously ill...
She paused for a moment, then took out a lucky charm from her handbag and handed it to Bai Ming.
"Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother's aunt is our aunt. I'm very worried about her because she's sick. Could you please help Ningbao deliver this amulet to her?"
Ningbao hopes her aunt can recover and defeat her illness soon.
Bai Ming was stunned for a moment when he took the amulet from Ning Bao. The moment he held the amulet in his hand, he felt very calm and relaxed, and a very comfortable feeling instantly spread throughout his body.
It seems that his junior sister's talisman-drawing skills have improved quite a bit.
And if he wasn't mistaken, the amulet in his hand was a little different.
Bai Ming carefully placed the peace charm away.
"Alright, your senior brother will definitely give the peace talisman to your third senior brother."
Feeling a bit flustered, Ningbao didn't continue her beachcombing trip. Instead, she went to find her master to catch rabbits in the back mountains.
Her master said that there's nothing a good meal can't solve, so since she didn't know why she felt flustered, she simply stopped thinking about it.
Let's turn our panic into appetite and eat first!
Watching Ning Bao leave, Bai Ming walked back into the manor while giving instructions to Bai Dong.
"Bai Dong, my third junior brother is in a hurry, so I won't take the carriage and will ride directly there. Unload the carriage and wait for me at the door."
I'll go and explain to Madam Shen..."
He doesn't yet know how many days it will take for him to return. Shen Muyang's acupuncture treatment hasn't finished yet, and if it can't continue in the next couple of days, he'll need to take an extra dose of medicine.
Otherwise, all the treatment I've received these past few days will have been for nothing.
As soon as Bai Ming entered the manor, he saw Shen Junshan and his wife leading Shen Sikang out.
Upon seeing Bai Ming, Shen Junshan quickly walked over.
“Young Master Bai, we have made up our minds about the apprenticeship. We have no objection to our child’s willingness to learn. We will be troubling you from now on.”
"You've reached an agreement? Then let's become disciples!" This disciple's arrival was just in time.
Before Shen Junshan and Liu Qingru could react, Shen Sikang knelt down in front of Bai Ming and kowtowed three times.
"Disciple Kang pays respects to Master."
Bai Ming then concealed his intentions and directly took out a dagger and a medical book, handing them to Shen Sikang.
"Get up. This dagger is your apprenticeship gift. Take this medical book and read it first. If we haven't set sail in seven days, I will test you. If we have set sail, you can memorize it more on your own."
After Bai Ming finished speaking, he looked at Shen Junshan and Liu Qingru.
"Uncle Shen, Aunt Shen, Ningbao is like my own sister. You are Ningbao's family and also my family."
You don't need to be so polite anymore, just call me Bai Ming.
I'll accept Sikang. But don't worry, I won't interfere if he wants to practice martial arts or take the imperial examinations in his spare time while studying medicine. As long as he masters medicine, everything else is his freedom.
Originally, I was supposed to hold a proper apprenticeship ceremony, but unfortunately, I have an urgent matter that requires me to leave for two days, so the ceremony will have to be postponed.
Liu Qingru quickly waved her hand.
"It's alright, the apprenticeship banquet and such are just formalities. We are very happy that Kang'er can become your apprentice."
"If Bai Ming doesn't mind the apprenticeship banquet, I'll personally prepare it when you have time, and we can all get together and have a good time."
