Chapter 278: Distant Water Cannot Put Out a Nearby Fire

Mu Baobao stood on tiptoe to read the letter.

Apart from recognizing a few words, I can't understand the rest.

"Master, does Third Brother want to come to my house to play?"

"Why doesn't he go home? Is it fun outside? But my second brother said it's not fun outside."

Doctor Deng put the letter aside and said with a smile, "Your third brother doesn't like staying at home. He likes to play outside."

"Baby, everyone has different ideas. Not everyone likes to stay at home."

Among his four disciples, excluding Bao Bao's medical skills, this third disciple has the best and most talented medical skills.

Unfortunately, his mind was not on medical skills, and he spent all day traveling outside under the pretext of looking for medicinal herbs.

Mu Baobao finally understood, "Master, why did Third Senior Brother write this letter?"

Doctor Deng said, "Your third brother invited you to Rongdu."

"Yes, I prepared a lot of gifts for you."

Based on his understanding of the third apprentice, this kid definitely has a "conspiracy".

Mu Baobao was very puzzled. "I haven't even met Third Brother yet, why would he prepare a gift for me?"

"I still need to prepare the gifts in Rongdu. I have to go to Rongdu first."

Doctor Deng thought to himself, this baby is indeed a smart little brain.

"So, are you going to Rongdu?"

Baby Mu shook his little head like a rattle, "No, no, no!"

"I won't go to Rongdu alone."

"Master, please tell Third Senior Brother that I don't want the gift anymore. Please give it to someone else."

Doctor Deng smiled and said, "Okay."

"Just look at the herbs."

Mu Baobao obediently went to look at the medicinal herbs.

Doctor Deng turned to look at Baozi and asked quietly, "Has anything happened to the Shangguan family recently?"

His third disciple was from the Shangguan family, the Minister of Justice.

The family of the Minister of Justice are all loyal to the emperor and always obey the orders of the emperor alone. They will not give others a good face... no matter if you are the prince or anyone else.

Only his three disciples were the exception. They were on good terms with everyone, yet not on good terms with anyone. They were always smiling and frolicking, and were often beaten by their family members.

Baozi suppressed his laughter and said, "I heard that it was Lord Shangguan who forcibly brought the Third Young Master Shangguan back, intending to let him marry."

"The Third Young Master Shangguan was locked up at home and tried countless ways to escape but couldn't."

The Third Young Master Shangguan has many female confidantes, but no concubines.

As it happened, all of the younger brothers and sisters of the Third Young Master Shangguan were married, and his older brothers and sisters were also married.

The only one who was left alone was the Third Young Master Shangguan, and he was often criticized by the people in Rongdu.

However, the Third Young Master Shangguan goes his own way and doesn't care about these things at all.

Doctor Deng almost laughed out loud. He knew that his third disciple would be forced to get married one day, but he didn't expect it to happen so soon.

"After all this time, he's trying to use the baby as a shield."

Baozi suppressed his laughter and nodded. Third Young Master Shangguan must have had no other choice but to resort to this trick.

Doctor Deng had no intention of helping his third apprentice, as he had been annoyed by this naughty boy many times over the years.

That bastard relied on his talent and eloquence and refused to study medicine properly.

And Shangguan Quan, the third young master of Shangguan, who was far away in Rongdu, was sitting there crying and refusing to look at the portrait of the noble lady again.

Madam Shangguan felt a throbbing pain in her head. How could she have given birth to such a bastard?

"You have to see this portrait of the noble lady."

Her face turned livid and she angrily said, "You have to get married even if you don't want to!"

Shangguan Quan was a scoundrel who hugged his mother's thighs and cried, "Mom, I haven't even met my junior sister, how can we get married?"

"I must meet my junior sister before I am willing to get married, otherwise I will run away from the wedding."

Madam Shangguan pointed at him angrily, so angry that she couldn't speak. She really owed this evil creature.

"Madam, don't be angry, don't be angry." The nanny quickly patted her back and comforted her, "The Third Young Master just hasn't met someone he likes."

"If the Third Young Master had met someone he liked, there would be no need for you to urge him."

Madam Shangguan said unhappily, "With his erratic personality, even if he met someone he liked, no one would be willing to marry him."

"Look at what he did. It makes me cringe just thinking about it."

The only serious thing this brat has done since he was a child is to take Doctor Deng as his teacher.

Shangguan Quan stood up with a smile and helped his mother lower her shoulders. "Mom, I have a brother and sister-in-law above me, and a younger brother and sister-in-law below me. Why would I need to start a family again?"

"I think how about this, Mom let me go out and play for a few more years, maybe I'll be ready to get married."

Madam Shangguan would not be fooled by him again. "Your father said that if you don't get married, you will be sent to the Imperial Guard and taught by specialized personnel."

Shangguan Quan's expression changed. Being a member of the Imperial Guard was not an easy job, especially when one was ordered to take care of someone.

"...Mother, you see, I haven't even met my junior sister."

Madam Shangguan understood his thoughts all too well and snorted, "Didn't you write a letter to your master?"

"If your master is willing to bring your little sister back, that's a good thing. If not, you must get married obediently."

Shangguan Quan understood after hearing this. No matter whether he asked Junior Sister for help or not, he had to get married.

But he doesn't want to get married!

What's good about getting married?

There is one more person to supervise him, and he has to follow the rules and regulations. He can no longer be as free and easy as before.

Madam Shangguan tapped his forehead twice, her expression finally looking better. "You are shameless too. You even want to take advantage of such a young child."

Shangguan Quan said confidently, "I'm not using you, I'm just asking Junior Sister for a favor."

He knew his master's temperament too well.

The fact that the master accepted her as his disciple is enough to show how much the master likes the little sister.

If he could ask Junior Sister to plead for him, then Master would definitely help him.

He wouldn't be forced to get married.

Mu Baobao, who was far away in Xingzi Village, could not save her third senior brother, and she had long forgotten about this matter.

After a while, the private school was built.

Mu Baobao and his classmates moved to a private school and no longer attended classes at Cheng Zishi's place.

The private school is very similar to the one in town, but it is smaller and does not have some unnecessary facilities.

The private school has a front yard and a back yard.

The front yard is for children to play, practice martial arts, etc.

The backyard is planted with fruits and vegetables, and the gentlemen can take a walk around.

There are six classrooms and three dormitories in the private school.

The dormitory is for the gentlemen to live in, and children who live far away can stay there temporarily.

Mu Baobao pulled Zheng Xingguang around in the private school.

“It’s so big.”

She looked here and touched there, "Little brother, isn't the Imperial College much bigger than here?"

Zheng Xingguang hummed, "It's much, much bigger than this place."

"Baby, have you decided whether to go to Rongdu?"

Mu Baobao was very embarrassed, "I want to go, but my family doesn't want to go."

"Little brother, how about we just forget about this?"
