Chapter 1285: Chapter 1107: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei
Some had ill intentions, and Xia Dabao immediately turned and walked away as soon as she sensed a wrong look in their eyes.
After asking around, she finally reached Yish Street. The Medical Hall was called "Yiyang Hall," with many people lined up outside, probably from far away seeking medical treatment—indicating Dr. Tian Guangren’s medical skill must be brilliant.
Xia Dabao observed "Yiyang Hall" a bit further; the premises were quite expansive—a large courtyard with the front used for diagnosing and treating illnesses, and the back, likely for living quarters. The building was made of bricks, even painted on the outside, its wood pillars at the door painted red, with two protective pixiu statues at the entrance, evidencing the family’s substantial wealth.
Was Tian Xiaobei living here?
At this moment, Xia Dabao was extremely excited, having finally found this place; she would soon be seeing Tian Xiaobei.
She hurriedly walked toward the entrance.
However, her action stirred up some commotion among the people in line:
"Lady, are you here to see the doctor? Don’t cut in line, okay? Can’t you see there’s a lot of people in line here?"
"Yeah, look at you, running and jumping around while many here can barely walk. Could you not be so shameless?"
"..."
Xia Dabao wanted to explain that she wasn’t there to seek medical help, but with so many people accusing her, her voice couldn’t overcome the crowd, and she chose to stay silent.
Just then, an assistant from the Medical Hall came over upon hearing the commotion. However, this attendant was not the one Xia Dabao had seen before. The attendant asked as soon as he came out, "What’s the fuss about? We’re treating patients inside; can everyone please not make noise?"
Someone pointed at Xia Dabao: "She’s trying to cut in line!"
"Yes, why should she get to cut when everyone else is waiting in line?"
"..."
Xia Dabao hurriedly approached the attendant, smiling as she explained, "I’m not here for medical treatment; I’m looking for Tian Xiaobei, he’s my friend."
"Young Master?" The attendant couldn’t help but look Xia Dabao up and down, "Our Young Master has gone out and probably won’t be back until the evening. You should come back later."
"But..." Xia Dabao thought she could wait inside, otherwise where else could she wait outside?
But the attendant didn’t care to hear more and went back inside without a word of courtesy.
Probably because Xia Dabao looked shabbily dressed, "Yiyang Hall" had garnered even more attention from the people of Provincial City since its reopening, with many seeking connections with the establishment. What was Xia Dabao, a mere young girl, in their eyes?
Having been turned away, Xia Dabao decided to find something to eat first.
She hadn’t eaten much since the previous day, and she didn’t sleep well the night before either, truly feeling both tired and hungry.
Xia Dabao found a noodle restaurant, sat in a corner, and ate a bowl of noodles slowly, hoping to pass the time. As the restaurant got busier and ran out of seats, the owner gently ushered her out.
With nowhere else to go, she returned to the doorstep of the Medical Hall.
It was already the afternoon, and there were still many people in line at the entrance of the Medical Hall. Some gravely ill patients were sitting on grass mats spread on the ground. Xia Dabao simply found a tree to sit under and, perhaps because she was too exhausted, she fell asleep shortly after sitting down.
When Xia Dabao awoke, she was suddenly startled.
It had gotten dark!
She couldn’t help but slap her face a few times, "Xia Dabao, when you’re out and about, you can’t afford to oversleep, but you just slept like a log; you deserve a smack!"
