“…”
Fang Jian was stunned and didn't react for a long time. When he finally reacted, he sighed deeply.
Mei Xianzhang asked, "Why are you sighing?"
Fang Jian said, "I was just sighing. What a talented and intelligent Shao Erlangzi is! I really underestimated the heroes of this world."
Mei Xianzhang finished all the rice at the bottom of his bowl, leaving not a single grain behind. It was as clean as if it had just been washed. After Mei Xianzhang put down the bowl, he looked up at Fang Jian again and asked, "Can you read and write? Oh, I remember you said you took the imperial examination before?"
Fang Jian nodded and said, "Yes, I will."

"Ahem." Fang Jian coughed, then stood up and helped Mei Xianzhang to her feet. He brushed the dust off her knees and said, "Now that you've accepted me as your master, I'm your master. Master, master, from now on, I'll be both your teacher and your father. Do you understand?"
Then he took the bowl of water from her hand and took a sip. Then he heard Mei Xianzhang nod seriously and say, "I understand, Dad."
"puff!"
