Xiaobao laughed, and Yueyue laughed as well.

The boys standing nearby laughed along too.

Xuan Ge’er was annoyed by their laughter and scolded, “What are you laughing at? If you laugh again, this young master is going to give you a beating!”

His nose was already sniffling and after all this commotion, some of his snot flowed out. The bright white liquid hung on his lips. He stretched out his hand and casually wiped it off. He wanted to beat someone, but his buttocks hurt too much, so he only limped forward a little.

Everyone wanted to laugh again, but Xi Ge’er, who had always been close with him went up to comfort him. “We weren’t laughing at you. After you went home yesterday you must have received a scolding. I did too.”

After saying this, Xi Ge’er lowered his head sadly.

When it came to this, the others all received pretty much the same treatment at home, so there was no need to laugh at Xuan Ge’er.

Xiaobao’s eyes flashed, and he also showed a bitter face. “Turns out you guys were also scolded?”

“Even you were scolded?” The several little guys who had all been scolded gathered around. However, Han Ge’er was a little smarter than the others. He stared at Xiaobao with suspicion evident in his eyes, “You must be lying. We were punished when we got home and my father even used you as an…” He paused after saying ‘used you as an’. “Anyways, you’re lying.”

“Who lies about being punished? Why don’t you lie for me to see?”

Even though Han Ge’er might be more sensible than the others, he was still a child, so he naturally couldn’t keep up with this rapid change of tone. As for Shan Ge’er, who had performed just as well as Xiaobao yesterday, he looked at this group of children with cold eyes.

“So you were also punished. Then I won’t give you a beating. I had it the worst out of all of you. My father said that I was making trouble yesterday in the imperial study and beat me up. My butt is still hurting even now.” Xuan Ge’er rubbed his butt as he said this.

Xiaobao looked surprised. “Your father is really heavy-handed! My father only scolded me for a few words. Does your butt still hurt? I have some ointment here. I often fall and hurt myself. If you use this, it won’t hurt anymore.”

“My mother gave me medicine, but it still hurts.”

“Then I’ll lend you some of my ointment.”

As they spoke, Xuan Ge’er’s personal eunuch, Xiao Xizi, came up and said, “Thank you, Young Master Chen. This servant has some medicine here. Her Highness said before we left that it will be used on the young master every shichen. There’s no need to use yours.”

Xuan Ge’er reprimanded, “You speak too much! You think this young master doesn’t know how to speak?” Then he asked Xiaobao, “Does your medicine really work? My mother rubbed some on me, and it doesn’t seem to work.” Kids at his age especially hated others meddling in their affairs and treating him as if he can’t speak.

“It’s definitely useful.”

“Then lend me some. I can’t even sit properly right now. My father is too cruel. After giving me a beating, he still made me come and study.”

What a pitiful child. Xiaobao suddenly found Xuan Ge’er to be quite funny. He used to think of him as a little bully, arrogant and unreasonable, but now as he listened to him talk, he found him to be quite cute.

Xiaobao reached out to An Shiyi. An Shiyi, who was pretending to be a eunuch, took out a small porcelain bottle from his pockets and handed it to him.

Xiaobao gave the porcelain bottle to Xuan Ge’er.

Xuan Ge’er scratched his head and said, “Even though you gave it to me, I can’t apply it myself.”

Xiaobao cheerfully said, “We can all help you.”

“Okay, sure!”

Then the little brats all went to look for a place to help Xuan Ge’er apply the medicine. Xiao Xizi wanted to go with them and was chased away by Xuan Ge’er. Yueyue also wanted to follow them, but Yu Chan stopped her.

“Young miss, you can’t go over there.”

There wasn’t any cover by the entrance of the imperial study. With no other way, Xiaobao and the others could only stand in a circle around Xuan Ge’er to block him from outside view.

“Hurry up, the teacher will be here soon.”

Xuan Ge’er immediately pulled down his pants, revealing his little buttocks.

Xiaobao was startled by his sudden no-nonsense act.

“Hurry up, what are you dawdling for?”

The children all looked at Xiaobao. They didn’t know how to apply medicine to others. Xiaobao touched his nose and stepped forward to apply medicine to Xuan Ge’er. He scooped out a blob of ointment and applied it to Xuan Ge’er’s butt. Xuan Ge’er grimaced and looked like he wanted to cry again. “My father is too cruel…”

Xiao Qian walked over from a distance and saw this scene. “What are you doing?”

The small dumplings immediately panicked. Hao Ge’er tried to urge Xuan Ge’er to hurry, but the more he urged Xuan Ge’er, the more he couldn’t pull his pants up. Even under normal circumstances, he only knew to take off his pants and didn’t know how to put them on.
