Yang Ming and Xiaoxiao made a decision; he would first take his wife and An’an back to the Grand Theater, and then co out to inquire about the Divine Doctor Xue.
"Alright." He agreed, then hurried the carriage to continue forward.
But there were still people rushing towards the intersection, and even though the two decided not to join the bustle, their eyes occasionally lingered toward that direction.
Suddenly, they heard people talking around them.
"What are they so busy rushing for?"
"I heard that the Divine Doctor Xue is selling miracle dicine again. Soone just said it seems that this ti he only brought a hundred bottles, and they’re hurrying over to make sure they don’t miss it."
"Oh my, I heard last ti that the divine dicine from Doctor Xue is miraculous; it supposedly cures all diseases, so people felt better imdiately, it’s one tael of silver per bottle, and it was snatched up instantly. Alas, I just don’t have the silver. If I did, I’d buy a bottle to keep it."
"Indeed, even though one tael of silver isn’t an outrageous price, it’s still enough to last an average family for quite a few days, and many still can’t afford it."
"..."
"..."
Hearing the chatter, Xiaoxiao widened her eyes. Unexpectedly, they hadn’t even reached the Grand Theater yet and already encountered it; it seems what Xiao’er said was true, that Divine Doctor Xue was selling miracle dicine here in Lin County.
Regardless of whether it’s true or not, they must go and have a look. "Honey."
Yang Ming understood his wife’s intention and imdiately turned the carriage around, but as soon as the carriage made the turn, an accident happened.
With just an "ah" sound, a woman fell to the ground unable to get up.
Xiaoxiao saw clearly; their carriage hadn’t touched the woman at all, so why couldn’t she get up? Could it be they encountered a scam?
Despite the doubts in their hearts, they quickly jumped off the carriage. Xiaoxiao went forward to support the woman, "Big sister, are you alright?"
The woman lay on the ground, groaning and clutching her belly; Xiaoxiao then realized the seriousness of the situation.
This woman was pregnant, likely not a scam but frightened by their sudden turn.
Xiaoxiao beca anxious, seeing the belly wasn’t very big; could they have run into trouble? If the shock caused the baby to be lost, it would be disastrous. "Big sister, don’t be afraid. Is your stomach hurting? We’ll take you to the dical clinic right away."
"I... I... might be going into labor."
Huh? Xiaoxiao was sowhat at a loss; her belly doesn’t look big, how could she be giving birth? Could it be a premature birth from the scare? Xiaoxiao beca more anxious and hurriedly said, "Honey, quickly, carry this big sister onto the carriage; she seems to be going into labor right away."
Yang Ming rushed over, intending to pick her up, but before he could touch the woman, she used all her strength to shout out, "Don’t touch ."
Only then did Xiaoxiao realize; this big sister seed overly conservative. Because Yang Ming was male, she refused to be touched.
Since that’s the case, there was no choice; Xiaoxiao had to rely on herself to help the pregnant woman up. "Honey, forget it, I’ll help this big sister."
"Big sister, how are you feeling? Can you move now? Can I help you up? Let’s slowly walk to the carriage."
The pregnant woman listened to Xiaoxiao’s words and seeing Yang Ming not coming over anymore, she nodded in agreent, "Alright."
Just as Xiaoxiao was about to help the woman up, several people who were just discussing Divine Doctor Xue’s dicine rushed over upon hearing the commotion.
