Reborn as an Ugly Wife in the Countryside

Chapter 805: Chapter 808: I’ll Go Run an ErrandThe family of three really ate, drank, slept, and relieved themselves at the gate, due to the child being young, the sound of the child crying could often be heard.

The guard at the gate was left speechless after trying to persuade them to leave several times, but it was useless. Xiaoxiao and her family remained adamant not to leave unless they were let in.

The young man was helpless, so he returned and continued to guard the gate. This went on for two days.

Xiaoxiao and Yang Ming felt even more unsure in their hearts. If this continued, they would really be out of options because the food they brought was almost gone. If they couldn’t get in, they would really have to make a fire and cook on the spot.

During these two days, Xiaoxiao also observed that other people came seeking medical help. Some were turned away, while others were let in.

It appeared that Medicine King Valley strictly followed the rules—those without a letter were turned away, while those with a letter were allowed entry.

Of course, those who were turned away did not persist as Xiaoxiao and her family did. They heeded the suggestion of the gatekeepers and went to Beijing to seek medical help.

On this day, Little Liufu started crying loudly again, annoying the young man guarding the gate, who came running over once more.

Impatiently, he said, ”You’ve been here for days. You’ve seen it. It’s really no use; you should leave and quickly find another doctor for the child.”

Seeing the gatekeeper coming again, Xiaoxiao decided to use her persuasive skills, reasoning that as a woman, she would be more effective than Yang Ming.

So, she held the child, trying to soothe the crying child, as she spoke, ”Young man, please be kind and ask for us once more. You see, the child is really sick; otherwise, as parents, we wouldn’t bear it to bring such a young child here to suffer. The child is indeed sick; we’ve seen other doctors, and no one can cure him. We had no choice but to come to Medicine King Valley. If there were any alternative, we wouldn’t be doing this.”

As Xiaoxiao spoke, she wiped away her tears, crying, ”As the saying goes, saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-tiered pagoda. Please consider the face of the Buddhas and help this child. If the child isn’t treated soon, he might die. Imagine the news of someone dying at the gate of Medicine King Valley; it wouldn’t be good. You have so many doctors inside, yet someone died outside. How would that be perceived?”

”This...” The gatekeeper seemed somewhat moved by her words.

Seeing this, Xiaoxiao continued, ”People outside wouldn’t say Medicine King Valley was heartless; they would definitely say Medicine King Valley’s medical skills are lacking. So many doctors couldn’t save a child. Do you think it’s bearable if Medicine King Valley is rumored to have poor medical skills?”

Xiaoxiao went on soothing the child, ”Look at this child, still so young, so cute. It would be such a tragedy if he lost his life. Medicine King Valley just needs to open the door to save this child. I beg you.”

Xiaoxiao was about to kneel, but the young man stopped her, ”Alright, alright, you don’t need to kneel. I’ll go make a trip.”

But after the young man left, Xiaoxiao kept crying earnestly. Yang Ming comforted his wife, ”Honey, don’t cry, maybe this time there’s hope.”

Xiaoxiao didn’t want to cry, but she wasn’t acting; it was a true emotional outpouring. Heaven had finally granted her a child, and she felt it was destiny. Even if given another child, it wouldn’t be right if it wasn’t this one.
