Chapter 1440: Chapter 1262

"Among so many grandsons and great-grandsons, Yanyan is the most thoughtful. Unlike the others who know that Grandpa is sick, they don’t even come to see me," Old Master Pang was quite unhappy.

"Grandpa, if you want them to come, that’s easy to fix. Tomorrow I will call each and every one of them over, and they won’t be allowed to leave. If they think of running, I’ll tie them up right here!" Yanyan said.

"Haha, look at you, girl..."

"Grandpa, come on, drink this sweet dew first."

...

Imperial Physician Wen had to come every day to check on Old Master Pang, similar to the modern ward rounds. He had also promised to bring Tian Xiaobei over, and the next day he indeed brought Xiaobei along.

Tian Xiaobei was also happy, purely using Old Master Pang as a test subject, applying his own set of treatment plans to Old Master Pang.

And when Tian Xiaobei arrived, Pang Yanyan happened to be there as well, and she just watched Xiaobei without saying anything.

Tian Xiaobei, who was barely fifteen or sixteen, a young boy, was surprisingly composed while treating the illness; the silver needles went in steadily without a trace of nervousness or panic.

Tian Xiaobei was also aware that Pang Yanyan was watching him.

When boys are doing something and there’s a girl watching them, they always put extra effort into it, and if the girl applauds or gives an admiring look, they are even happier.

Tian Xiaobei, although outwardly composed, was actually very calm inside. Only after completing the treatment plan did he bow to Old Master Pang and then look towards Imperial Physician Wen.

Imperial Physician Wen, of course, didn’t say anything. If he hadn’t agreed with Xiaobei’s treatment plan, he wouldn’t have brought him here.

As they were packing up to leave, Pang Yanyan said, "Let me walk you out."

After that, she followed them out.

Once they had left Grandpa’s ward, Pang Yanyan became more talkative, and she was, of course, talking to Tian Xiaobei the whole time.

The Lady from the Capital City, being the legitimate granddaughter of a great official family, was naturally more forthcoming, saying whatever she wanted to say.

Pang Yanyan asked, "By your accent, you’re not a local. Where are you from?"

Tian Xiaobei hadn’t fully integrated into life in the Capital City and lacked the background to pass among its inhabitants, so naturally, he was more reserved. He replied politely, "I come from Guang Province."

"Oh, from Guang Province, how did you come to the Capital City? Are your parents here?"

Imperial Physician Wen, seeing a different sort of chemistry brewing between the two, excused himself to Pang Yanyan first: "I have some things to take care of at home. Xiaobei, you can talk with Lady Pang for a bit. You might discover some more about the patients’ daily habits, which could make treatment easier."

"Okay," Tian Xiaobei answered.

He was naturally happy to do so.

Coming from the far-off Guang Province with no relatives in the Capital City, he usually spent his days off reading in his dormitory. Getting acquainted with some of the young Lords and Ladies could be helpful for his future endeavors.

Yes, he hadn’t considered this before; it was a routine he had slowly figured out after arriving in the Capital City, and then he found that his personality might be better suited for making his way in the Capital City.

In the Capital City he was continuously admired and praised, but what about in Peach Blossom Village and the Provincial City? There, he could only be criticized and looked down upon.

Once Imperial Physician Wen had left, Pang Yanyan asked Tian Xiaobei again, "You haven’t answered my question yet. Are your parents in the Capital City?"

"No, my parents are also in Guang Province. I got into the Imperial Medical Institute on my own," Xiaobei said.

Sure enough, the admiration in Pang Yanyan’s eyes intensified. She went on to ask, "I saw you working the hardest among your classmates yesterday. Apart from reading and treating patients, do you have any hobbies?"
