Chapter 697: Chapter 686: Visiting

Manbao still really wanted to go see Ji Hao, especially to feel his pulse, even though Doctor Ji had been keeping her updated on it, but she still wanted to see for herself.

After all, it was the prescription she and Teacher Mo had discussed for half the night that had caused her a great sense of accomplishment.

Thus, with bright eyes, she went to see Bai Shan.

Bai Shan could only nod, "But all the adults from the Ji family are here, can we actually get in to see anyone?"

Wei Ting said, "Second Madam Ji is at home, we are Ji Hao’s good friends, why can’t we go in?"

Jiao Yong saw them standing at the back, talking and not keeping up, so he also slowly left the group and ran up to ask, "What are you discussing?"

Wei Ting invited him, "We’re going to see Ji Hao, are you coming?"

"Yes, let’s go, quickly."

Bai Erlang, naturally following the crowd, went along as well.

And just as Wei Ting had said, they entered quite easily, Second Madam Ji was very familiar with Wei Ting, and most of the children were her son’s friends and classmates. More importantly, Ji Hao was awake at the moment, and as soon as the servant reported in, he said that he wanted to see them.

Second Madam Ji naturally wouldn’t oppose him, so she let the servants invite Wei Ting and the others in.

Seeing Manbao mixed in among the young men, Second Madam Ji did not mind, she smiled at her and stood up saying, "Talk to each other but don’t get out of bed, don’t get angry or excited, understand?"

Ji Hao casually agreed, "Mother, don’t worry, I won’t leave the bed."

That allowed Second Madam Ji to leave, with only the old maidservant keeping watch over them.

The old maidservant was quite surprised to see Manbao; Second Madam did not know, but she was aware that the prescription that had improved the young master’s condition had also been brought by her.

The old maidservant stepped out of the tent, silently stood in the corner, and did not disturb their conversation.

Ji Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief and complained to Wei Ting and the others, "Why did you only come to see me now? I’ve been so bored."

Wei Ting said, "We still have school, and besides, you were so badly hurt before, and although we heard you woke up, we feared you couldn’t be overexerted, so we dared not visit you. How are you feeling now?"

"Much better, just that my stomach is both painful and itchy, and occasionally I feel a bit dizzy and not too spirited."

Manbao looked at his complexion and said, "It might be a sequela from losing too much blood, right? Wounds do itch when they heal."

Only then did Ji Hao notice Manbao, he was slightly taken aback, sizing up her clothes, before fixing his gaze on her face and asking, "You, you’re Zhou Man’s twin sister? You look so alike?"

Manbao looked at him and said, "I am Zhou Man!"

Ji Hao’s eyes widened, and Wei Ting excitedly told him, "Ji Hao, you don’t know how amazing she is. When your bleeding wouldn’t stop, it was her who acupuncture you to stop the bleeding, it turns out she’s studying medicine."

Ji Hao subconsciously covered his stomach, his face pale as he said, "Then, then you saw me... all exposed?"

Bai Shan stared at him and said, "There are quite a few who have seen everything, I’ve seen it too."

Ji Hao: ...

Manbao, unconcerned, waved her hand and said, "In a doctor’s eyes, a patient is just a patient, there’s no distinction between male and female."

Ji Hao disbelievingly said, "Can men and women really look the same?"

Manbao then looked at his stomach and said, "At least what’s inside the stomach is the same, right?"

Ji Hao felt a chill in his belly.

Bai Shan said, "She didn’t see anything else except for your stomach," after thinking for a while, he added, "Oh, and what’s inside of it."

Everyone: ...

For some reason, Ji Hao suddenly felt a bit angry. He stared at Bai Shan and Manbao for a while, his face full of suspicion, "Did you really help stop the bleeding? Aren’t you bluffing, how old are you this year..."

Bai Shan said, "If you doubt us then you should ask your own servants, you don’t believe what we say, what’s the use of asking us?"

He said, "You’ve walked through the gates of hell and still haven’t learned to watch your mouth, the words you spit out are still so unpleasant."

Ji Hao was taken aback for a moment, standing there in a daze, while Wei Ting and the others were somewhat silent.

Bai Shan took Manbao’s hand directly, "Let’s go."

Manbao looked at Ji Hao with regret, she still wanted to feel his pulse, but she would not lose face for Bai Shan, and Doctor Ji had said that if a patient doesn’t trust the doctor, it’s better not to treat them because it would be futile.

Sometimes, because of distrust, the patient might do something contrary to the doctor’s advice, and it could backfire.

So Manbao and Bai Shan turned and left together.

Bai Er also glanced at Ji Hao, snorted, and followed them with his head held high.

The old maidservant was stunned, she didn’t expect them to have a falling out so quickly, she hurriedly chased after them to apologize and ask Bai Shan and the others to stay.

Bai Shan looked at her strangely, not understanding why a servant would talk so much, his own Daji wouldn’t act like this.

He said, "We’ve been out long enough, we were just coming to check on Ji Hao’s injury, and since he’s recovering well, we can rest assured."

Manbao nodded, "Maidservant, there’s no need to see us out, we’re not angry with him, we all know how he is."

The old maidservant then sighed with regret, admiring how nicely these two children spoke.

Looking back at their young master, she sighed again. To think, their young master was several years older than these two.

Ah—

The old maidservant also didn’t dare to let them leave empty-handed, after all, both of them were lifesavers of their young master, one had saved him from under a horse’s hooves, and the other at the sickbed.

Nowadays, Old Madam has not made a stir because the affair is not yet concluded. Once this matter is settled, knowing Old Madam’s character and the way she conducts things, she would definitely want to properly thank these two.

So, the old maidservant hurriedly had people prepare three gifts for them to take, yes, Bai Erlang tagging along also managed around a gift too.

The old maidservant smiled, "They’re nothing much, just some pastries made at home, and some fruit that came from the orchard below, for the young masters and ladies to enjoy something fresh."

Bai Shan glanced at them, found indeed they were pastries and fruits, and accepted them.

The old maidservant escorted them all the way to the gate, watched the servants place the items in the carriage, and watched as the three of them drove away in the carriage, only then did she turn back.

She briskly returned to the young master’s room, where Wei Family’s young master was scolding their master, "You really shouldn’t speak like that, you don’t know, when you fell from the horse, we were all terrified. It was Bai Shan who reacted first and chased after, his servant blocked your horse for a moment, and cut the stirrup to rescue you."

Jiao Yong was not present at the scene, he didn’t know, but he had heard about it, "Right, everyone in the school said, if it wasn’t for him, you might not have been saved, with the horse running that fast, and your stomach being cut open, if you were dragged any further, even if you didn’t let go, you wouldn’t have survived."

Ji Hao couldn’t help but stubbornly say, "I was unconscious, I didn’t know."

"But aren’t we telling you now? Shouldn’t you have asked us first, who starts off by offending people like that?" After this incident, Wei Ting also became much more assertive, "You should change that, in my opinion, you were also wrong about the Qixia Mountain incident. Even if you want to settle the score with Ying Wenhai, you shouldn’t have called him son of a stepmother."
