Chapter 1249: Chapter 1249: You Won’t Lie to Me, Right? (Second Update)

"I can’t bear to leave Grandpa," the girl said gloomily, lowering her head and unhappily twisting her fingers.

Whenever the girl was unhappy, she would twist her fingers.

Mr. Miao held the girl’s hand, sighed, and said, "You’ve grown up. In the future, on your path of learning, you will have to leave Grandpa."

"I won’t." The girl snuggled close to Mr. Miao reluctantly.

"Dear, I can’t stand the thought of you staying in the village forever. I want to see you become a real doctor." Mr. Miao turned his eyes to her, filled with kindness, and said, "Grandpa will stay at home, waiting for you to come back. In the meantime, you should learn as much as you can, alright?"

The girl: "..."

She kept quiet. Even though she knew Grandpa had her best interests at heart, she wasn’t happy.

"If you miss Grandpa, you can always come visit," Mr. Miao encouraged her warmly. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝙚𝔀𝒆𝒃𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝓵.𝙘𝒐𝒎

The girl suddenly stood up.

Mr. Miao watched her leaving, thinking about how to persuade her.

The next day, Mr. Miao talked about it with Tang Jun. Tang Jun thought it was a good thing and volunteered to take care of the girl, but Mr. Miao declined, saying, "Old Man Xu will take good care of her. He is a skilled traditional Chinese medicine doctor and would be glad to have my girl learn from him."

Initially, Mr. Miao also thought of letting the girl go with Tang Jun, but he dismissed the idea, feeling it might seem like trying to repay a kindness. Especially after meeting Old Man Xu, he completely gave up on that thought.

Sending her to Old Man Xu brought no burden, as he had once saved Old Man Xu’s life.

Tang Jun understood that Mr. Miao had made up his mind, and since the girl would indeed learn more with Dr. Xu, he didn’t say more. He assured Mr. Miao, "Grandpa Miao, don’t worry. I will help persuade her."

"Brother Tang."

The girl hadn’t slept well the night before and looked weary.

"What’s wrong, didn’t sleep well last night? How about taking a walk with me? We could check out how the roadwork at the village entrance is going?"

Tang Jun suggested.

The girl glanced at his eyes and decided not to say anything else, just answered, "Brother Tang, come with me."

Along the way, she chattered on, reminding Tang Jun where to turn and which parts of the road were uneven.

"How much of the road is finished?"

Tang Jun inquired.

"A lot has been done, a smooth cement road. Soon, we can even take a bus to town," she said excitedly about the roadwork, not just she but the entire village was thrilled. With a road, they could get to town—driving an ox cart was much easier than walking.
