Old Madam Liu smiled and patted his shoulder, "Originally, I thought you were the only one in the family, and since we don't have a good relationship with the main family, only Dalang and Erlang could support each other with you. Unexpectedly, Manbao also managed to make a mark in the officialdom. This is good, with her around, you'll have more support in the officialdom in the future."
"The officialdom is no less turbulent than the battlefield. You must be careful in the future..." Old Madam Liu gave many instructions and only allowed Bai Shan to leave and return to his room when it was late at night.
The main courtyard was still lit, with Manbao writing under the lamp. May and Jiu Lan, along with Xi Bing and Xi Hua, stood by her side, serving tea, pouring water, and grinding ink. It was truly a picture of elegance, but Manbao found it hard to bear.
She held her face with the pen in hand and asked them, "Aren't you tired? Do you want to take a break?"
