“That’s fine too,” Li Hehua smiled and held her hand instead. She was just afraid that she would lose her.
After walking through the alley and taking a detour, Jiang Yue finally saw a clinic called Shen’s Medical Center. Presumably, the doctor here had the surname Shen.
The street where the clinic was located wasn’t very prosperous, but there were people going in and out of the clinic from time to time. It seemed that business was not bad.
That’s right, Xue Yan said that this doctor had a certain reputation, so his business would naturally flow well.
“That’s the place,” Xue Yan pointed at Shen’s Medical Center and spoke.
Xue Yifu and Li Hehua were illiterate, but the decorations of a typical clinic were different from other shops. They still knew which one was the real clinic, but they didn’t know that it was called Shen’s Medical Center.
Xue Yan told them, “This clinic is called Shen’s Medical Center. My classmate’s surname is Shen. He’s seven years old, the same age as me. He’s his father’s son. His father is quite old, so everyone calls him Doctor Shen. You can call him that when the time comes.”
“Alright, alright, alright.” Xue Yifu and Li Hehua responded in a hurry.
Before they entered the clinic, a child in the clinic saw them and hurriedly came out to greet them. “Young master, please come in. Your friend is not in the clinic now, he’s in the school.”
Xue Yifu and Li Hehua felt rather proud to be treated with pristine, but they didn’t dare to say anything for fear of embarrassing Xue Yan.
Jiang Yue remained calm. She had heard people call Xue Yan young master before.
“I’m not here for my friend.” Xue Yan bowed to the child. “Is Doctor Shen in?”
The child hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed at a 90-degree angle in return before answering, “Yes, yes. He’s taking someone’s pulse in the inner room. Please wait a moment.”
The child led them to a few chairs and served them tea. Then, he went to the inner room next to them and told Doctor Shen that Xue Yan had arrived.
Xue Yifu and Li Hehua were extremely reserved. They only dared to touch the chair with their buttocks, and they were unable to sit at ease.
“Xue Yan, we…” the two of them were clearly too reserved. They felt that they were completely out of place here. They were clearly farmers, but they were enjoying the courtesy of distinguished guests. They were sitting on black round chairs with tea beside them. They had never drunk tea in their entire lives. The blue patterned tea bowls were so beautiful that they didn’t even dare to touch them, let alone lift them up and open the lid to drink.
The chair was comfortable, and the paintings were astounding here.
The chairs in their house weren’t painted, and they weren’t this kind of circular chair, because this kind of circular chair was more troublesome to make than the ones at home.
“You don’t have to be so stiff. Doctor Shen is an extremely kind person.” Xue Yan smiled.
Xue Yifu felt slightly better.
However, Li Hehua rarely comes to town, so she was really inexperienced and reserved. Seeing this, Jiang Yue got down from her chair and walked to Li Hehua’s side.
Li Hehua immediately picked up the little girl and let her sit on her lap. In this way, Li Hehua also sat firmly on the chair, and she was not so restrained, so she naturally felt more at ease.
At this moment, the child came back and said with a smile, “Young master, you have to wait a little longer. The condition of the guest inside is still being assessed.”
“Alright, thank you for your trouble.”
After a while, the 60-year-old doctor with a white beard walked out from the inner room and smiled kindly, “Shen Qing has come.”
