"But what if the village chief can be saved? I asked Xiaobei about it, and he said he could try, but it's not easy for him to step forward. He's currently living at Aunt Zhao's place, and if he gets involved, he might be driven out. Xiaobei is also unsure about what to do now, so he wanted to hear your thoughts."
"Xiaobei can cure it?" Yege's eyes lit up as well.
"He said he wanted to hear your thoughts."
Yege, excited, said, "If he really can cure it, then we should try. The village chief has always been good to our family, we can't just watch him die. How about this, when it gets dark, you go and call Xiaobei out, and Dad will talk to him."
"Okay," Xia Dabao immediately nodded in agreement.

After bathing, Tian Xiaobei was ready to go to bed.
He was now living in an outbuilding, which used to store various tools and some potatoes and sweet potatoes. It was cleared out temporarily by Aunt Zhao Er. The room always smelled faintly of potatoes and sweet potatoes.
