Chapter 1201: Chapter 1203: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei

"But what if the village chief can be saved? I asked Xiaobei about it, and he said he could try, but it’s not easy for him to step forward. He’s currently living at Aunt Zhao’s place, and if he gets involved, he might be driven out. Xiaobei is also unsure about what to do now, so he wanted to hear your thoughts."

"Xiaobei can cure it?" Yege’s eyes lit up as well.

"He said he wanted to hear your thoughts."

Yege, excited, said, "If he really can cure it, then we should try. The village chief has always been good to our family, we can’t just watch him die. How about this, when it gets dark, you go and call Xiaobei out, and Dad will talk to him."

"Okay," Xia Dabao immediately nodded in agreement.

...

After bathing, Tian Xiaobei was ready to go to bed.

He was now living in an outbuilding, which used to store various tools and some potatoes and sweet potatoes. It was cleared out temporarily by Aunt Zhao Er. The room always smelled faintly of potatoes and sweet potatoes.

He used to read a little before going to sleep, but Aunt Zhao disapproved of wasting lamp oil and candles on reading, so he wasn’t allowed to read anymore. Bored at night, he would go to sleep especially early.

That night, just as he was about to lie down, he heard someone calling his name outside the window: "Xiaobei, Xiaobei."

Startled, he hurried to the window, and by the dim moonlight outside, he saw Xia Dabao’s beautiful face, shining with a hint of mischief.

"Abao, how did you get in?" Tian Xiaobei whispered, looking around to see if anyone had noticed her sneaking in.

"Xiaobei, come out quickly, my dad is looking for you," Xia Dabao whispered back.

"Your dad?"

"Yes, my dad. Hurry up."

But Tian Xiaobei was still curious: "Abao, how did you get in?"

Xia Dabao pointed to the top of the wall: "Over there. But now I can take you through the back door. No need to climb over the wall."

The door could be opened from the inside, but not from the outside.

Tian Xiaobei looked at the tall wall in amazement.

How could a girl jump that high?

...

By the fishpond behind the house, Xia Dabao took Tian Xiaobei over to where Yege was already waiting.

"Uncle Ye," seeing Yege, Tian Xiaobei couldn’t help but be influenced by Yege’s aura. Even though he was standing by the wall, he stood upright and unhidden, not at all behaving as if this were a covert operation at night.

"Xiaobei, you’ve come? I heard from Abao that you think the chief’s illness can be cured, right? I want you to go see him," Yege said, and just by looking at Tian Xiaobei, it felt as though he had no time to think, not knowing how to refuse.

"Yes, I think it should be curable," Tian Xiaobei said, "but..."

"First, let’s go see the village chief’s condition. We can talk about what comes next later," Yege answered. He then pulled out several pieces of cloth from his pocket: "Your Aunt Nan Feng said it’s better to wear these, it reduces the chance of contagion."

Xia Dabao quickly took one and wrapped it around herself before handing another to Tian Xiaobei, who couldn’t help but say, "Aunt Nan Feng is actually quite knowledgeable."

...

A few people snuck up to the village chief’s enclosing wall. At first, there were some voices of women advising children to go to sleep early inside, but then the sound gradually subsided.

Tian Xiaobei quietly asked Xia Dabao, "How are we going to get in? The village chief’s wall seems to be the tallest in the village; should we go find a ladder now? Otherwise, Uncle Ye..."
