The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 240

Xu Tian smiled faintly, turned to look at Dongfang Tingyun and said, "Thank you, Master Dongfang, thank you, Master Dongfang."

Seeing that Xu Tian was calm and composed, Dongfang Tingyun immediately felt that her previous approach had been a bit too aggressive and felt somewhat embarrassed, so she shut her mouth.

They saw Xu Tian go directly to the main hall used for receiving guests.

The woman and the man looked at each other and said, "My little Bao has had a lung disease since he was a child, and no other private school will accept him."

“What nonsense are you spouting, Grand Tutor? We’ve come today to take Xiao Bao back home. He used to drink Niuhuang Jiedu Pills and Jixiang Liubao Soup at home. If we leave him here, it might interfere with his schooling.”

Xu Tian could tell at a glance that the family was poor. The auspicious six-treasure soup needed ginseng and lingzhi as medicine, while the bezoar detoxification pill was mainly for detoxification.

Xiao Bao should drink Jiu Hua Jiu Cao Wan. Mo Xuan Academy must make a lot of money on a regular basis, yet they suggested such an inappropriate herbal medicine.

Xu Tian immediately smiled faintly and said, "You two don't need to worry. I've already asked the life teacher to take Liu Xiaobao to the manor's infirmary. His condition has now been brought under control."

After all, Xiao Bao fell ill while at school. If we were to go to see a doctor outside now, it would probably waste Xiao Bao's time. Don't worry, both of you! Xiao Bao might have already woken up by now.

Sure enough, the steward came in and said excitedly, "Grand Tutor, rest assured, Niu Xiaobao's condition has stabilized, and he has already woken up. The doctor told Xiaobao to rest in bed."

Niu Xiaobao's mother was quite excited upon hearing this and stood up abruptly, but she was still somewhat suspicious and turned to look at her husband.

If Xu Tian says he won't call a doctor or will return the person to the couple, they will follow the previous script and push the matter onto Xu Tian, ​​making him pay for a doctor and sabotage Hongwen Academy.

But Xiao Bao has now been sent to the infirmary. Hearing that her Xiao Bao is alright, the woman was relieved. But this man has already accepted the money from Mo Xuan Academy. If this is the case, Mo Xuan Academy will probably take the money back and make them pay three times the amount in silver. Where will he get so much silver?

This isn't because of Xiao Bao's illness. As his mother, she would never send him to a private school to learn the Three Character Classic at this age.

Yang Chao saw what the two were thinking and sighed, saying, "You should go and see Xiao Bao. Xiao Bao is currently in poor health and needs his parents away. If you don't mind, you can stay in the dormitory."

The man was somewhat surprised and asked as he walked, "What is a dormitory? And what about the infirmary you mentioned earlier?"

Xu Tian was speechless for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"This dormitory is prepared for students. If it is inconvenient for you two to take care of Xiaobao, you can leave him in my Xu residence for care."

As for what Mr. Niu asked me earlier about the infirmary, it's an institution specifically established for the students' health, with a doctor on duty every day, and this doctor is an expert in pediatrics.

The couple had never heard of sending their child to a private school before, and they were immediately worried.
