Chapter 1506: Chapter 1328: Xiao’ai, Dabao, Xiaobei
“Mom…” Zhao Datu thought, why should he explain. He coldly said, “None of your business!”
“… ” Wang San was inexplicably scolded, feeling immensely wronged.
At that moment, Xia Dabao also ran down, “Axiang, Wang San, stop lining up. It’s only for those above fifty, no one believes you’re that age. You better leave quickly.”
“Is it really only for those above fifty?” Wang San felt it was a pity.
Thus, after Xia Dabao called out, many young people withdrew, leaving only those like Auntie Zhao who, despite being in their thirties, brazenly claimed to be over fifty.
Xia Dabao then observed the front for a while and noticed that the two organizers asked several questions before handing out the eggs.
Questions like, do you feel well? Any recent headaches or body pain? How’s your sleep?
Only after registering these details could one receive two eggs.
However, after distributing the eggs, the two organizers added, “Today is just for seeing the doctor, in a few days we will have a Divine Doctor come over, shall we let the Divine Doctor take a look at you then?”
…
Xia Dabao sulkily went back home.
His parents were picking beans in the yard. Upon seeing Xia Dabao returning, Nan Feng smiled and said, “What, didn’t get any eggs?”
Xia Dabao walked over and helped pick the soybeans. While picking, he said, “They’re only giving them to those over fifty, not the young.”
Yege then said, “Could it be some rich person took pity and specifically launched a campaign to care for the elderly?”
Nan Feng nodded, “Probably so, but is it really just about giving out eggs? Did those people have any other demands?”
“There were no other demands. They just asked the grandparents if they were feeling well or had any discomfort, caring more than their own children. Nothing else… Anyway, we don’t have any elderly people in our house, so I didn’t bother asking much,” Xia Dabao said while picking beans. “But they said in a couple of years there will be a Divine Doctor coming, and they claim this Divine Doctor is miraculous, capable of curing any disease. If this is truly a charitable act by a rich person, it’s really a blessing for the villagers. If it can cure all the villagers’ ailments, they would be immensely grateful. It’s indeed accumulating a lot of good karma.”
After hearing this, Nan Feng felt somewhat suspicious.
Naturally, Yege noticed and asked Nan Feng, “Fengfeng, do you have any concerns?”
“It’s nothing… Let’s wait and see in a few days.”
Seeing Nan Feng’s expression, Xia Dabao, knowing his mother was always cautious and her intuitions usually correct, asked, “Mom, could there be something wrong with the eggs?”
“There shouldn’t be, but I just feel like it’s not that simple. I’m afraid it’s all a scam. I hope everyone can stay vigilant and discern carefully.”
…
Two days later, Xia Dabao went to the grain-drying ground again with Axian.
Since the campaign targeted the elderly, only seniors were now queuing. Even Auntie Zhao didn’t join the crowd; she just watched from the side.
Xia Dabao heard people buzzing around, “I heard there’s a Divine Doctor this time!”
“That’s right, I just saw the Divine Doctor. He’s well-preserved, looks only in his twenties though he’s over forty, full of vitality. Reportedly, it’s because he has been consuming a certain medicine regularly.”
“What kind of medicine?”
“I don’t know, we’ll find out when the Divine Doctor arrives.”
“…”
