Chapter 26 -26 might be the fear of having no money for medical treatment.

Bai Da furrowed his brow and glared at Bai Zhi when he saw how tired Ye Xiu was, of course, he wouldn’t dare to glare at his old man.

“We’re all panting from chasing!”

It was as if what Bai Dan and Bai Zhi did was terribly wrong.

Bai Dan couldn’t help but want to laugh, albeit a laugh filled with anger,

“Am I your father, or are you my father?” he asked coldly, looking at Bai Da.

“Of course, you’re my dad!”

Bai Da was somewhat confused, why would his dad ask such an obvious question?

“Then what right do you have to question me? You went to play, I took Xingxing to change her medicine. We weren’t on the same trip.”

At their pace, by the time they got there, the doctor would have finished his shift.

You see, the doctor in town and the one at the county hospital are different because the town doctor is only in town before three in the afternoon, and the rest of the time, he’s either running to the countryside or has to go back to the county to make records and such.

So, unless it’s market day, they would have left by three and weren’t in the town’s clinic anymore,

But here they were, strolling like they were on a spring outing, probably slower than a tortoise.

“Grandpa, how can you say that? We went to town for Bai Zhi.”

Bai Ye couldn’t listen anymore and, feeling indignant for his father, put his hands on his hips and glared at Bai Dan.

“Nonsense! What does your trip to town have to do with Xingxing? Did we ask you to go? How can you use the excuse of doing something for Xingxing to go and have fun? You walk slower than a tortoise, by the time you get there, the doctor is off duty. Ye Xiu, I don’t think you should bother going, just enjoy your spring outing here, we won’t accompany you.”

After saying that, Bai Dan didn’t even want to give them another glance, took Bai Zhi, and walked off. With such a family, he didn’t want to deal with them. He thought his daughter-in-law was a good one, but it turned out she was also clueless, saying they were taking Xingxing to change her medicine,

but in the end,

Humph!

He really didn’t want to say anything more!

“Dad…”

Ye Xiu’s face suddenly lost its rosiness because her father-in-law wasn’t wrong, she indeed hadn’t been aware of this,

“Dad, if you have to say something, say it to me, how can you say that about Ye Xiu?”

For Bai Da, you could scold him or even beat him, but you couldn’t say anything about Ye Xiu!

Bai Dan didn’t bother with them and walked faster with Bai Zhi,

They wanted to catch up, but there were a few who lagged behind. They said they were too tired to walk…

Bai Da didn’t care much for the two boys, but he was worried about Xixi, so he quickly picked her up to carry her on his back,

Ye Xiu took Bai Yu and Bai Ye by the hand, and indeed, they moved much faster this way!

After walking for a long time, Bai Dan realized a problem; Xingxing could be tired!

“Xingxing, are you tired? It’s all Grandpa’s fault, dragging you along so quickly. How about Grandpa carries you?”

As he said this, Bai Dan had already squatted down, waiting for Bai Zhi to hop in his back-basket.

Bai Zhi looked at this scene and laughed out loud. If it had been when she was little, perhaps she would have easily climbed in, but she wasn’t that small anymore!

Let alone the fact that she was actually a twenty-year-old, even a nine-year-old Bai Zhi would seem strange in it, right?

Of course, because Bai Zhi was thin and small, she looked similar to a seven or eight-year-old, but it was still unsuitable for her to climb in, unless she were maybe two or three years old!

Actually, that too would be dangerous because if one isn’t careful, one could fall out. Nowadays, people don’t have this awareness, and naturally, the kids wouldn’t be so mischievous either,

“Grandpa, I’m grown up, I can walk by myself. Besides, we’re almost there,

but I think, Grandpa, you could weave those kinds of backpacks that small children can sit in,

like the usual backpacks but make a concave seat in them, like a child’s stool. Do you think that would sell well?”

Bai Zhi’s offhand suggestion caused Bai Dan to be startled; the market for backpacks was actually a bit saturated now,

How can I put this?

Because the situation is now like this,

His carrying baskets are of particularly good quality, and very exquisite; whether it’s for cutting pigweed or this type for going out to buy groceries, one could last for years,

So who would buy them when most people already have one?

But the idea Xingxing mentioned is different; isn’t it common for grandparents to look after the children?

And when there’s work to do at home, they have to go up the mountain, so if they could carry the child, who would choose to hold them instead?

So this idea is pretty good; there’s even space to put things!

“Alright, when we get back, I’ll give it a try!”

So he really thought the idea was good and decided to give it a try—he would just make two to start with!

“Uh-huh. Grandpa, I think it’s worth a try. Let’s make those refined and attractive ones,

But not too many, just one a month is enough. I don’t want you to overwork yourself. When my fries business gets bigger, we, grandparents and grandchild, can sell potatoes every day, counting money until our hands cramp, how about that?”

Bai Zhi was very confident in Bai Dan’s craftsmanship; whether it was carrying baskets, frames, or baskets for drying mats, each was unique.

Hearing Bai Zhi’s words, Bai Dan also laughed, laughed so much he couldn’t contain himself.

“Alright. Count money until our hands cramp!”

Although he supported his granddaughter, he didn’t have too high hopes,

Anyway, as long as Xingxing was happy, that was what mattered. A little bit of potatoes, he could afford the loss!

In his heart, he felt just a tiny bit that those fries weren’t that tasty,

Not nearly as good as eating meat!

Talking all the way, they soon arrived at the town,

Looking back, to their surprise, Ye Xiu and the others had just barely caught up, panting heavily, with Bai Ye and Bai Yu’s faces flushed red and drenched in sweat; apparently, they had run the last stretch!

“Dad, you walked too fast!”

Ye Xiu had always been a teacher in town and had not done much physical labor, so at this moment, like Bai Ye and Bai Yu, she was also gasping for air. The only ones faring somewhat better were Bai Da and Xixi.

Xixi was obediently lying on Bai Da’s back, looking worriedly at her two brothers.

Bai Yu seemed to notice Xixi’s concern and patted her hand.

“Don’t worry, we’re fine, we can keep going!”

Xixi was still very worried, looking at them with concern,

Bai Zhi’s gaze turned to their interaction, but she only glanced briefly.

At the hospital entrance, fortunately, the doctor hadn’t left yet,

Seeing Bai Zhi, he waved at her,

“Come over here and let me take a look, it seems you took my words from yesterday to heart!”

The doctor was a young man, only in his twenties, probably an intern on duty.

“Doctor, what you said yesterday?”

Bai Dan immediately became anxious and asked, what else was there that Xingxing hadn’t told him?

The doctor was startled, not expecting the parent to be unaware. He glanced at Bai Zhi, who was now looking down, pretending not to hear?

“It’s probably because she was worried about the medical expenses. I told her yesterday that her wound should be dressed daily, otherwise it might scar. As the weather gets hotter, it’s also more likely to become infected.”

The doctor, filling in the blanks himself, came up with a plausible explanation for Bai Zhi, who actually didn’t mind about scarring at all and found coming in every day too troublesome.

Besides, she really didn’t think it was necessary to change dressings every day; it was only a few stitches, after all.

Bai Dan was still trying to process this when Ye Xiu already covered her face, tears welling up in her eyes—how could her daughter Xingxing be so foolish?
