Chapter 637 - 626: Examination of the Mansion School (extra update for the book friend "Al Pacino")
In the carriage, Mr. Zhuang, while stroking Manbao’s little head, said with a beaming smile, "From now on, you can study medicine at ease. Tomorrow, I’ll prepare a gift for you, and you can select a medical book to send to Doctor Ji."
Manbao happily agreed, "Yes." In her heart, she went over the incident that had just occurred, as well as the words her teacher said earlier at the County Governmental Office. She felt she had learned something, but couldn’t quite grasp that specific point.
She could only exclaim in admiration, "Teacher, you’re truly amazing."
Mr. Zhuang smiled faintly, tenderly patting her little head; these were just small tricks, yet they were the result of contemplation from the first half of his life.
He only hoped that his students would not need to learn such cunning tactics in the future.
Mr. Zhuang personally prepared a generous gift; together with the medical book from Manbao, they were sent to Jishi Hall. After that, whenever Manbao went to Jishi Hall to study, Doctor Ji took even more care in teaching her.
Without mentioning other things, when encountering some special diseases, he would observe and simultaneously point things out to Manbao, and afterward would explain in detail the prescriptions he formulated.
Apart from that, Doctor Ji also took special time out to teach her his cursive script so that she could quickly understand the prescriptions he scribbled.
And so, Manbao spent half of her time practicing at the pharmacy and the other half reading with Mr. Zhuang, living an incredibly enriching life.
Zhou Silang made the trip between Yizhou City and Qili Village every five days. Not only did he and Zhou Lijun develop their own grain business, but they also provided excellent conditions for communicating with their family in Qili Village.
After teaching several major classes at Dazhi Academy, Mr. Zhuang also sent Bai Erlang there.
