Hu Bai called out several times before Xue Tingsheng, who was shaking with his head propped up, suddenly woke up. Remembering Fu Ling's words, he quickly closed the book and asked, "What's the matter?"
Hu Bai pretended not to notice and said, "The master asked me to ask how the eldest young master is doing with his studies."
After calming down a bit, Xue Tingsheng said, "Tell my father that I'm fine and will definitely pass the exam this time."
Hu Bai responded, his face showing concern. "Young Master, you're working so hard! I feel bad for you, especially since you're taking medicine for typhoid fever. You're dizzy and exhausted.

But Young Master, you're a precious person, a scholar, and I've never been to school, so I just think you're doing the same rough work as us. You're just talking nonsense!"
After saying that, he hit himself on the mouth.
