After going out, both children have grown quite a bit taller, especially Mu'er, whose growth is particularly noticeable.
When Xu Han hugged him, she could clearly feel that he was a little stiff, obviously embarrassed that he was being held in his mother's arms at such a big age.
Xu Han naturally sensed his change, but she didn't care. He was her own child, and only a few years old. What was there to be afraid of? Couldn't she just give him a hug?
Although Mu'er felt embarrassed, she still missed her mother's embrace, so she hugged her mother tightly.
Ze'er didn't have so many worries. He was still like a mischievous monkey. If he hadn't felt his father's nervous gaze, he probably would have jumped up in Xu Han's arms.
The Taoist priest and Grandpa Zhao also came over from outside. The four of them greeted each other and began to reminisce.
"Mu'er, Ze'er, quickly pay your respects to your parents." Grandpa Zhao reminded them as they were busy talking.
Although family members don't care about such superficial things, things are different now than before, so Xu Han didn't say anything and sat quietly.
Upon seeing this, Mu'er and Ze'er knelt down and kowtowed deeply, paying their respects to the two brothers.
"Get up quickly, come over here and let your mother take a good look at you," Xu Han said, beckoning him over.
The two children snuggled up to her again. Xu Han looked at the two children and tears streamed down her face. After being apart for several months, how could she not be overjoyed and cry tears of joy upon seeing them again?
"You've grown taller and stronger. Not bad, not bad, but you've gotten quite tanned."
Grandpa Zhao chimed in, "These two children are very obedient."
I never complained about the hardships or fatigue along the way, and I was able to handle anything that happened. I grew a lot from this trip.
Haha, he's a bit dark-skinned, but he's a boy, so it's okay to be a little dark.
The Taoist priest smiled and said, "It's normal to have dark spots after being out in the wind and sun all day."
Lu Chuan also laughed and said, "Dark spots are healthier; fair skin doesn't look good at all."
Xu Han was very happy to see that everyone had returned safely. She looked at this person and that person from time to time, and the smile on her lips never left her mouth.
The couple then had dinner with them, and at the dinner table, they asked each other all the questions they wanted to ask.
After learning about their experiences along the way, I felt very gratified for the two children.
The praise never stopped all night, making the two children's faces turn dark red, which was quite amusing.
"Alright, it's getting late. You should all go back and get some rest. We can talk about it tomorrow."
The girl is pregnant, she must be tired so late.
We won't leave the table for a while; it won't make a difference. We can talk later.
Xu Han did feel tired, so she didn't force herself and went back to her room to rest with Lu Chuan.
Back in her room, Xu Han was so sleepy she could barely keep her eyes open. Lu Chuan helped her take off her shoes and socks, and she immediately rolled over and found a comfortable position to fall asleep.
The next morning, when Xu Han got up again, the sun was already high in the sky.
With the help of Chunmei and Granny Ma, they got dressed and ate breakfast.
"Where is the master? Is he home?"
Granny Ma handed over a cup of mouthwash, and Xu Han took it and started rinsing her mouth. "Master went out early this morning. He didn't say where he went in detail, but he said he would be back for lunch before he left."
Xu Han raised an eyebrow but said nothing.
Seeing this, Granny Ma continued, "The two young masters and Taoist Master Zhao are in the backyard. They said they want you to come over after you finish your meal."
"Okay, I understand. Let's go now." Xu Han said, then got up and walked towards the backyard.
When she arrived, the Taoist priest was practicing swordsmanship with the two children.
Upon seeing her, the three stopped. "Mother, you're awake. Mother, have you eaten?"
"You've eaten, you've eaten. How was it? Did you two sleep well last night?"
"You slept very well. Did your little sister and brother sleep well?" Ze'er said, then reached out and touched Xu Han's belly.
Xu Han didn't stop him and let him touch her.
No one answered Ze'er's question. He touched it by himself for a while, then sat down to the side and talked with the adults.
"Xiao Han, stretch out your hand, let me see how you and the child are doing?" After saying that, Grandpa Zhao opened the medicine box next to him and took out a pulse pillow.
Xu Han stretched out her hand, and Grandpa Zhao first checked it himself, and then had Mu'er take her pulse.
Xu Han wasn't curious at all about Mu'er taking his pulse. After all, Grandpa Zhao had taught him before when they were at home, and Mu'er often took their pulses, so everyone was used to it.
However, Mu'er's pulse diagnosis wasn't very accurate before; she could only detect some obvious symptoms, and couldn't feel anything else.
However, to Xu Han's surprise, Mu'er's answer shocked her greatly. She hadn't expected Mu'er to have made such great progress during this trip.
In just six months, he has been able to accurately describe Xu Han's current physical condition. Most importantly, Grandpa Zhao did not add anything this time.
After Mu'er finished speaking, Grandpa Zhao nodded, "Not bad, you got 90% right. Now, take a closer look at the key details."
Upon hearing this, Mu'er began to focus on sensing again, and after about three minutes, she added the last bit.
Grandpa Zhao was very pleased to hear this, and Xu Han almost burst into tears. She never expected her eldest son to be so amazing at such a young age.
"Prescribe a prescription based on the pulse diagnosis you just made."
Mu'er picked up the brush, ink, paper, and inkstone that had been prepared beforehand, and began to write.
Seeing him writing so diligently, Xu Han quietly widened her eyes and asked Grandpa Zhao in surprise, "Mu'er is so amazing now? She can even start writing prescriptions?"
"Yes, you don't know, this kid has a real talent for medicine."
During the six months I was away, I often took him to take pulses of different people and let him prescribe his own medicine. Then I would add or subtract some medicines according to his prescriptions and give him some pointers. Next time he encountered this kind of problem, he would be able to solve it by himself.
Most importantly, I made him record all the pulse readings he had taken, as well as the prescriptions he had written and the revised prescriptions he had written.
Whenever he has time, he will hold the booklet and study it, and he even has to take a look at it before going to bed.
He's hardworking and quick-witted, so his progress is naturally fast.
Upon hearing this, Xu Han's eyes widened. She felt proud to have such an amazing son, but at the same time, she also felt sorry for him.
Mu'er is able to make such rapid progress precisely because she studies hard both morning and night.
Only he himself knows the hardships he endured.
"Great-Grandpa, please take a look." Mu'er handed the written prescription to Grandpa Zhao, who then added a few more ingredients and adjusted the dosages.
Seeing that Mu'er was puzzled, Grandpa Zhao patiently explained the reason to him.
Mu'er listened obediently, looking as if she had suddenly realized how it was done.
