Man Bao was stunned, and then remembered this matter, yes, it was just said last month, she has to attend the Great Court Meeting.
After a while, Man Bao closed his mouth and said: "It's okay, I have nothing to do when I go, I guess I will listen to their discussions on politics."
Bai Shan thinks so too, she is just a writer, and her speech is rarely used.
So everyone also discussed that it was time to go out and make snowmen the next day.
The snow was so thick in the ground, they found a clearing, and the snow looked white, so they took the shovel and went forward.
Of course, you need to use a shovel to make a snowman. Only fools use their hands. It was the first time Man Bao saw such a big snow when he arrived in Beijing last year. He had no experience, so he poked the snow with his hands just like he did in his hometown, and then picked it up to play. It was not lightly frozen at once.
Later, I foolishly used my hands to build a snowman, but was teased by the children in the alley, and then I haven't built the snowman yet.
The experienced Man Bao and the others skillfully directed everyone to shovel and pat the snow with shovels. They piled the snow together and patted it firmly before proceeding to the next step.
Even Yin or saw it for the first time, walking around crunching on the snow with his boots on.
A group of people built three snowmen on the ground, with different body shapes, some with too big stomachs, and some with square heads. Everyone couldn't help laughing.
Zhou Lijun ran to the side of the road and picked up a few black stones, and pressed them directly into the snowman's forehead to serve as eyes. Others also went around looking for a suitable nose and mouth for the snowman. Man Bao directly broke a thin stick and bent it a little. Then press it in to be the snowman's mouth.
It's just that when you take two steps back and look at it, no matter how you look at it, you feel horrible.
After they dressed up the three snowmen, Zhou Zhoulang and the others came over to watch the excitement, then shook their heads and said, "Anyone who passes by here at night can scare people to death."
Man Bao decided to ignore him, anyway, she thinks the snowman is still okay.
Unfortunately, they still have to go back to the capital, so they can't stay for long.
So after watching the snowman for a while, they went back to Zhuangzi for lunch, and then they left and went back to Beijing.
Old Zhoutou and Qian decided to stay with Zhou Dalang and his wife, and Zhou Zhoulang was not in a hurry to go back. He planned to go to Yongzhou City in the next two days. The fur goods on the grassland began to be shipped. He and Xiang Mingxue both planned to Do another fur business this year.
Zhou Lijun planned to go with them to see the world, so the others followed Man Bao and the others back to Beijing, and then went about their own affairs.
It was the first time for Man Bao to go to the Great Court Meeting, and he needed to get up earlier than usual, and now the sun is short, it gets dark quickly, but it gets late, not only that, but he is also very lethargic, and he likes to lie in the warm bed Can't get up.
Even though Man Bao had asked Ke Ke to remind her to get up in advance, she still opened and closed her eyes, then slipped under the quilt and fell asleep again.
Keke realized that he was speechless for a while, and was about to continue calling her, when he scanned Bai Shan walking over sleepily wearing a cloak, and it immediately stopped interfering.
Bai Shan was also sleepy. He went to Man Bao's door and raised his hand to knock on the door. Seeing no movement inside, he knocked again and said, "I know you're awake, get up quickly, or you'll be really late."
Man Bao rolled up the quilt and shouted, "I don't want to get up."
Bai Shan said: "If you are impeached by the censor, at least one month's salary."
Man Bao became depressed for a while, and finally sat up holding the quilt, sighed deeply, then lifted the quilt and got out of bed, smeared and lit the lamp.
Seeing that the light was on, Bai Shan nodded in satisfaction, turned around and said, "Then hurry up, I'll call Bai Er."
Man Bao asked in a daze, "What are you calling him for?"
Bai Shandao: "Share the blessings, share the troubles."
Man Bao just didn't think about it, she sat on the chair blankly, but still felt that the chair was too hard, so she sat back on the bed again.
As soon as she sat on the bed, she felt so soft and comfortable, she couldn't help but lay down...
Koko: ...
Feeling that her breathing was getting longer and longer, it seemed to be falling asleep again. It was speechless for a while. When it was about to remind her, she suddenly raised her head, stretched out her hand and patted her cheeks heavily, and said to herself : "I can't sleep, I can't sleep, my butt is pierced, my head hangs from the beam..."
Seeing the host leaving the bed with difficulty, Keke didn't speak anymore.
It seems that in order not to regret it, Man Bao didn't even make the bed, just put on his clothes and went out to fetch water with the wooden basin.
The people in the kitchen woke up early, they were always the first group of people to get up in the mansion, and the other servants in the mansion also started to work, seeing Man Bao coming to fetch hot water in a daze, a girl Then he stepped forward to take the wooden basin and said, "Miss Man, why didn't you wait for me to bring the water over?"
Man Bao shook his head and said, "I'll do it myself, I'll be much more refreshed after blowing some air."
Girl: ...
Man Bao fetched water and went back to the house, washed his face and hands first, and then he was completely awake.
When she got ready and went to look for Bai Shan, she found that he had already sat at the dining table with Mr. Zhuang Bai Erlang, and the three master and apprentice were waiting for her to eat.
Man Bao saluted his husband and asked, "Why do you all get up so early?"
Mr. Zhuang said with a smile: "I'm getting older, I feel less."
Bai Shan said with a smile: "I went to bed early last night, so I got up early today."
Bai Erlang sat silently.
The light was dim, and Man Bao went up to look, only to find that Bai Erlang's eyes were closed, his head was lowered, and he could hear a soft snore when he listened carefully.
Bai Shan bumped him with his elbow, Bai Erlang shook and almost fell, he immediately sat upright, and said in a daze, "Share the blessings, share the troubles!"
Man Bao always felt that these words were very familiar, as if he heard them this morning.
She turned her head to look at Bai Shan.
Bai Shan directly picked up a steamed stuffed bun for her, and said: "The court will be long, so you should stop eating porridge, eat more buns and steamed buns, and drink less water."
Man Bao nodded, picked up the steamed bun and ate it.
When they went out, Tiantian was slightly bright, and there was no one on the street. Man Bao couldn't help dozing off in the swaying carriage, and so did Bai Shan and Bai Erlang.
She was still very moved today, "Next time you don't have to wake up early with me, it's not worth it to rush so early."
Bai Erlang nodded again and again, "Okay, okay."
Bai Shan glanced at him and said: "It's okay, I will see you off in the future, anyway, I will go to court in the future."
Bai Erlang woke up a little bit, and said, "You are really conceited."
Bai Shan: "This is called self-confidence."
"It will take me twenty years. Even if you are better than me, it will take at least ten years. After ten years, Manbao may not only go to the court meeting. Hmph, it depends on what you will do then."
Man Bao thought for a moment and shook his head: "Although the bigger the official, the more salary and job field, but I think it's better not to be too big an official, because I'm so tired, I don't have time to do other things son."
The highest imperial doctor is the fourth-rank hospital administrator, she has to take care of so many things, so she is not the right one.
The other officials have a lot of things to take care of when they are high-ranking. She doesn't like treating diseases and saving lives.
After queuing up to enter the Great Court Hall and finding his seat to sit down, Man Bao felt that she was a very good official, because the assigned seat was very good.
