Chapter 1610: Chapter 1432: Epilogue
Auntie Zhao flared up as soon as she heard it, "Daniu, stop telling us what to do all the time! Who do you think you are?"
"Mom, why are you getting all worked up again? I’m your daughter-in-law, and by that logic, I shouldn’t be speaking out after I married in, but the way you’re living isn’t right. Uncle and Auntie work nonstop every day, and yet you and Datu don’t do anything. What would people in the village think when they hear about this? They’ll say you, as the eldest, bully the second. Plus, look at Zhao Datu, he’s almost twenty and still loafing around like a layabout. Isn’t that because you’re spoiling him? What’s a wife for, if not to push him to grow up? I frankly can’t stand seeing a grown man idle about all day."
"You..." Auntie Zhao was about to argue, but then she thought better of it. She couldn’t win a quarrel with a butcher’s daughter.
As soon as Daniu went out, Zhao Datu came back after a short while.
Auntie Zhao unleashed her anger on Zhao Datu, "What on earth have you done today? Look at the kind of woman you’ve brought back; she starts nagging me the moment she arrives."
"What else could I have been doing? I’ve been digging the earth, worked to death. The sun was scorching, and I couldn’t even take a break to cool down. What kind of shrew have you married me off to?" Zhao Datu also started munching on a piece of dried bamboo shoot.
"Then why don’t you put her in her place? Look at all her bad habits, she acts as if she’s the Monkey King patrolling the mountain."
"How could I discipline her? I couldn’t win against her even if I fought her. Forget it, life goes on; another day passes by," Zhao Datu looked quite dejected.
Auntie Zhao’s sister-in-law chuckled to herself from the side.
Let’s see if this doesn’t teach them both a lesson this time.
...
Capital City.
The final Medical Academy comprehensive exam had finally ended.
This exam spanned a full seven days and nights and included various aspects of pharmacology, practical experience, and imperial doctor interviews, among others, amounting to a battle of both physical and mental stamina.
Many had collapsed before the seventh day; those who held on were visibly worn out.
Tian Xiaobei and a few fellow Medical Academy students walked out together.
After all, they were young men of seventeen or eighteen, and having not shaved for several days, they looked several years older.
"Xiaobei, how did you do on the exam?"
"Just so-so, I guess; I’m not too sure myself."
"You’ve always had the best grades; you needn’t lack confidence. Those of us who should be worried and nervous are our bunch. Just now, during the acupoint exam, I couldn’t remember several points. I think I even misplaced the needles a bit during the needling. The proctor just sighed when he saw me. Ah, I really should have studied more these past few years."
Tian Xiaobei simply said, "The results haven’t come out yet; we all don’t know how it will turn out. Right now, I just want to go back to the dormitory, take a good wash, sleep for three days and nights, and then really enjoy myself for a month. Once the results are out in a month, no matter what, I have to go back to Guang Province."
"If I don’t pass, I won’t have the face to go back. Sigh, but you’re right; the most important thing now is to go back, wash up, and sleep. We’ll talk about the results a month later."
The group got on a carriage and headed back to the Imperial Medical Institute.
At this moment, Tian Xiaobei felt incredibly relaxed.
In the past two years, he had been studying intensely and had become Imperial Physician Wen’s prized disciple—Imperial Physician Wen took him everywhere, which restored his confidence.
Climbing up by one’s own efforts is far more gratifying than relying on nepotism.
And most importantly, he would finally be able to go back and pick up Xia Dabao.
He took a painting from beside his bed, held it in front of his eyes, and admired it.
