But this matter was beyond Old Master Bai's—or even Mr. Zhuang's—control, so they only talked about it briefly before moving on to this year's harvest.
Old Master Bai truly suffered heavy losses this year. He was already in a foul mood, and seeing his youngest son acting so foolishly did nothing to improve his spirits.
After asking about Bai Erlang's studies, he turned to discuss Bai Dalang with Mr. Zhuang.
Bai Dalang was Mr. Zhuang's first batch of students, and he is currently studying at the Yizhou Prefecture School. Mr. Zhuang had made considerable efforts back then.
Of course, he merely introduced the person to Old Master Bai; how to get him into the prefecture school was Old Master Bai's concern.
Compared to Bai Erlang, Bai Dalang was considered industrious and studious, and he was also quite intelligent.
