The only witness present...
"Everyone was so happy that we couldn't sleep because Master was back."
Su Mei smiled as she served food to Shi Bao.
Fu Shi is like a donkey that responds to gentle persuasion, not force; just praise him slowly.
Seeing this, the others followed Su Mei's example and served food to Fu Shi, acting even more affectionately than their own mothers—although in reality, these people had only ever served food to Li Sushang, their daughter.
Well, anyway, there's not much difference.
"Hehe... I can't accept this, please eat, please eat." Feeling a little flattered by everyone's praise, Shi Bao put on an elder's pedestal and served Li Sushang a piece of food.
"Thank you, Grandmaster Uncle." Li Sushang did not refuse at all.
Well, this girl is also troubled about the matter of Fu Shi, but her troubles are about how to make Fu Shi ride on Fu Hua's head.
Of course, since it seemed like any method would result in a painful backside bruise, she decisively gave up and decided to continue being a good girl. Why should she meddle in the affairs of her grandmother's generation?
After a while, Liu Bai saw that everyone had almost finished eating, so he gently tapped the edge of his bowl with his chopsticks—a little impolite, but it successfully drew everyone's attention.
"By the way, Miss Fu Shi, I discussed some things about you with everyone yesterday."
"Huh? My business? What business is it of mine?"
In his euphoric state, Fu Shi was completely unaware of the subtle malice in Liu Bai's tone.
"Hmm...it's a memory problem."
"what……?"
When it came to memories, Shi Bao seemed to realize something, and the smug look on his face lessened considerably.
"Yes, you must be missing memories about talismans right now, so we were thinking, could we help you recall some memories by seeing these objects?"
"Oh? Is that so? That's great."
Upon hearing Liu Choubai's words, Shi Bao's expression, which had been about to become serious, immediately softened, and he went downstairs to grope for breath.
They're doing this for my own good, and I'm genuinely quite curious about my past life called "Fu Shi," so why should I refuse?
Thinking of this, Fu Shi wiped his mouth and then pulled Liu Bai up.
"Come on, come on, you've finished eating too, let's go now."
Well, Shi Bao is quite perceptive, knowing to catch him for dinner, which saves Liu Bai from having to volunteer himself.
"Okay, let's go to the study first."
Liu Bai happily got up, took Shi Bao out, and after the footsteps faded away, everyone present immediately stopped eating, cleared the table, and then carefully walked towards the study—they all wanted to see what Liu Bai's "demonstration" meant.
The group tiptoed to a secluded spot on the outskirts. Just as they crouched down, they heard Shi Bao's somewhat agitated voice from inside.
"Wait, Liu Bai, did you come to the study to read?"
"Otherwise what? Miss Fu, have you forgotten these books that you love most?"
Liu Bai pointed to the Four Books and Five Classics and textbooks for primary and secondary school students on the table.
"Hmm... wait a minute, forget about the Four Books and Five Classics, what's with these textbooks for primary and secondary school students?"
"Have you forgotten that these are all textbooks for primary and secondary school students that you carefully selected?"
"Huh? No, why would I choose textbooks for primary and secondary school students?" Shi Bao's tone was a little hesitant.
Well... she felt that Liu Bai could actually give her a reason.
"Of course, it's for the sake of the younger generation of Mount Taixu!"
"...?"
“Miss Fu Shi, I only learned about your foresight last night from Miss Chao Yu and the others. Even before Li Sushang was adopted, you had already begun selecting teaching materials for the younger generation and communicating with the town school down the mountain.”
"Eh...Is...is that so?"
"Although the textbooks have been revised and deleted a lot over the years, the major questions still show your discerning eye when you selected them, which is why Ms. Chaoyu and the others brought these books over."
Liu Bai's tone carried a hint of emotion—as if he were expressing his feelings of longing for their martial uncle among the Seven Swords of Taixu.
"Something feels off," Shi Bao scratched his head, his irrational intuition kicking in.
"In that case, we were the ones who were wrong," Bai said, her tone shifting to one of grievance towards Daiyu. "We've worried ourselves sick for you, Senior, only to be met with such suspicion. If we had known this would happen, why would we have bothered rummaging through all these books?"
"Uh...no, that's not what I meant."
Shi Bao's expression froze; he hadn't expected Liu Bai to react this way at all.
"I am... yes, it's all because of my sister's memories."
Shi Bao quickly came up with an excuse.
(Anyway, it's just reading books, and the books were found by my junior disciples, so it has nothing to do with Liu Bai...)
"I'll flip through it right away, Liu Bai. Which book do you think I should read first?" Shi Bao felt that she was indeed being ungrateful, so she quickly sat down and showed an impatient expression.
Seeing Shi Bao give in, Liu Bai instantly abandoned his Lin Daiyu demeanor and picked up a sixth-grade elementary school Chinese textbook from the table.
Children who are too young don't need to read this; start with the sixth-grade Chinese textbook.
"Tsk..."
The glaring "Sixth Grade, First Semester" on the book cover annoyed Fu Shi a little.
But since things had come to this, Shi Bao could only turn the pages of the book.
With Fu Hua's memories as a knowledge base, Liu Bai obviously didn't need to teach anything from the mere sixth-grade Chinese textbook. So Liu Bai simply sat down next to Shi Bao and watched him read the book.
In less than half an hour, Fu Shi had finished flipping through the entire textbook.
"..."
No, we've gained nothing.
Fu Shi's expression was somewhat strange.
They said they picked it themselves, but I have absolutely no recollection of it. The part of the whole book that attracted me the most was the little turtle drawn by Su Chang.
Liu Bai very conscientiously handed over the second volume of the book.
Shi Bao's eyes flickered; he didn't really want to take it.
But then she remembered the aggrieved look on Liu Bai's face that had given her a headache before, so she had no choice but to accept it.
In less than two hours, Shi Bao had finished flipping through all the textbooks on the table.
"Did Miss Fu Shi make any progress?" Bai Xiang smiled curiously at Shi Bao.
"...There is absolutely no such thing."
Shi Bao's lips twitched as he answered.
She had been called a senior before, but now she was back to being a young lady—Shi Bao felt like she had fallen into some kind of trap.
"Perhaps your memory isn't deep enough?" Bai pretended to ponder for a moment. "How about this, Miss Fu, do a few more practice tests to review and learn something new."
"ha--!?"
"Senior, are you tired of this again? You don't need to be nice to me one minute and mean the next. If you're angry, just let it go. Why say these things?"
Liu Baiwan looked like a delicate young girl, her face full of grievance, and she sighed deeply.
"I only regret that I had such good intentions..."
"Wait, wait, wait! What did I say to you?"
At this moment, Shi Bao felt even more aggrieved than Liu Bai.
I didn't just say "Meng Ha—Er—!?)" and then I heard an O sound? It sounds like I'm the one being insulted! You're cursing me like I'm being brutally murdered?
Not even a 'ha' is allowed?
"Look, I only said a few extra words, and you're already like this, senior. Never mind, it was my fault for being nosy. I shouldn't have meddled in these family matters. I'll go and call Su Mei over now." The pale face looked even more aggrieved—and Shi Bao looked even more aggrieved.
I haven't done anything good for you!
I'm even more aggrieved than you are, okay?
"Gulp..." In that instant, Shi Bao felt as if a huge fishbone was stuck in her throat, unable to go up or down. The aggrieved look on Liu Bai's face left her speechless.
"You... no, never mind, I'll do it."
Shi Bao really wanted Liu Bai to work on his mental fortitude, but he also felt that if he told Liu Bai, Liu Bai would just continue to feel wronged for no reason.
With tears in her eyes, she picked up her pen and began working on the test paper that Li Sushang hadn't finished before.
"...Pelu, has Mr. Liu Bai always been like this?"
Li Sushang, who had been squatting for nearly two hours, listened to the sounds inside and looked at Peruvier with a strange expression.
You're telling me that the guy inside who's sighing and lamenting like a male Daiyu is that talkative and wise Brother Liu Bai?
Um... okay, although it was indeed very successful in terms of results.
Without even a second thought, the talisman inside must have it firmly under its control.
"This is what they call speaking human language to human beings and ghost language to ghosts, adapting one's words to the situation," Su Mei said, glancing at her silly daughter.
Forget it, this trick looks simple, but this silly girl is good at imitating others but can't expect to master it.
“Our Martial Uncle Fu Shi has the heart of a young girl, a strong sense of self-esteem, and a strong sense of vanity. We have always flattered her, and Mr. Liu Bai has seized on this point, using self-deprecation to morally blackmail her.”
Some people, once they're put on a pedestal, have no choice but to care about their reputation, and Shibao is clearly one of them.
It's a bit bitchy—but that's okay, as long as it works.
Su Mei glanced at her senior sisters, junior sisters, and junior brothers.
Everyone nodded in agreement. With Liu Bai teaching to this extent, how could they not understand?
After a while, Liu Bai came out and pointed at Lin Chaoyu. This little darling of Fu Hua immediately understood, nodded, and picked up Li Sushang.
It would be irresponsible not to let Li Sushang do some practice tests during such a good opportunity.
"Great-Master Uncle?" Li Sushang's crisis radar was beeping as a student, but she was helpless against her great-master uncle.
I don't want to do the test paper!
"Don't worry, Master Fu Shi's exam paper has nothing to do with you." Lin Chaoyu saw through Li Sushang's thoughts at a glance and reassured her.
"call……"
"What you need to do is study the actual college entrance exam questions, of course. Your junior uncle's middle school exam papers are none of your business." Lin Chaoyu looked at Li Sushang, who was letting out a sigh of relief, and the kind mother revealed a mischievous smile.
"—!"
No, no, no! This is even more terrifying—!
"Su Chang won't betray us, will she?" Ma Yanqing yawned.
"Then I'll beat her buttocks into eight pieces," Cheng Ling Shuang said coldly—her indifferent tone revealing a hint of impatience.
Having neither a full bust nor a shapely bottom, Cheng Ling Shuang couldn't wait to destroy her direct disciple's buttocks.
Li Sushang shivered as she entered the room.
Rebellion?
Li Sushang was just thinking about it. Although her grandmaster was good, he was still a law enforcer after all, and she still needed to be taught and guided, just as Liu Bai had said.
"Um... Chaoyu, you're here." Seeing that Lin Chaoyu was the next to enter, Shi Bao breathed a sigh of relief. "This exam paper..."
"Keep going, Uncle-Master. We're doing this for your own good!"
People who have been parents are actually more adept at moral blackmail than Liu Bai.
Shi Bao: "..."
Oh no, I have a bad feeling.
—As it turns out, the intuition of the Lawbringer was very accurate; the Lawbringer didn't step out of the door all day.
The entire study was filled with quotes from Daiyu.
"If that's your attitude, Uncle-Master, it would be better to just ignore Su Mei. It makes Su Mei seem unreasonable."
"Anyway, you have other junior disciples who are better at chatting, better at acting cute, and better at making their master happy. So Wanxi jumped off Mount Taixu to avoid offending their master's eyes."
