XH 303* - Eighteen Years Old

Not much to everyone's surprise, 'Xiao Bao' shop was welcomed in Bai land, especially for the elderly patients that could not stand long in line without a shade or rest.

Doctor Bai started implementing number cards for patients to take to indicate their order to consult the doctor, which gave them an estimated time to wait for their turn. They would use the waiting time to enjoy the special meat buns and varieties of snacks from the 'Xiao Bao' shop.

Some also went to the shop just to catch a glimpse of Xiao Hua, the legendary Doctor Bai's foster daughter and the handsome Doctor Long Zhu's wife.

However, there was also some opportunist businessman that wanted to open a shop at Bai land too after seeing the crowd, but Bai Chuan refused. No one could say anything since Bai land was under the authority of Bai Chuan and his descendants. Not even the Four Kingdoms could interfere with Bai land.

Who told Bai Chuan to be a legendary doctor where the whole world praised him up to heaven?

Xiao Hua had told Long Zhu that as a doctor, he must not give them half treatment just so that the patients could come back again. They had to uphold Doctor Bai's name and good reputation.

Long Zhu agreed, with a helpless expression mixed with the feeling of being wronged since he had not thought of that cruel, money-grubbing treatment. Was his impression in Xiao Hua's mind that terrible?

Or did his teacher do something that made her have a rather dark outlook about their profession?

"Why do we still have so many patients?" Xiao Hua grumbled as she gazed out of the window where she could see the crowd before the Bai clinic. If she had not recognized any of the patients, she would have thought Long Zhu had not treated their illness properly.

She thought that with how many patients her husband had treated, there should be lesser people coming, but reality smacked her face!

...Should she recommend increasing the fees?

With the shop taking almost all her time, it felt like time passed by quickly and today was already her eighteenth birthday. Luckily, tomorrow was their rest day where Bai clinic and 'Xiao Bao' shop will be closing. They had extended the holiday to two days, allowing them to celebrate way past bedtime.

The birthday party will be during dinner time, with lavish dishes and specially brewed wine, homemade by Doctor Bai, Yu Zheng, and Tian Chi.

The couple closed their shop earlier, and the trip back to the mountaintop was completed in mere seconds. It was all thanks to the teleportation array made by Duan XiYing, connecting the two places.

Xiao Hua was extremely grateful for it because she does not need to wake up much earlier every day just to walk down the mountain.

Hao Li, Lin Fei, and Han Mei were all invited to the party. They were reluctant to accept at first, but Xiao Hua insisted that they were their trusted employee and it was just an informal feast among friends and family.

Xiao Hua became even more insistent in having them join the party after they had given her presents, even if they were just simple gifts.

Right on time before dinner, Heise teleported right at Bai land with Heng Xin, the Empress Dowager, and the retired Emperors. When Long Zhu announced his plans to migrate to Bai land, Long Yuen had wanted to follow his favourite grandson, but he was also worried about his Emperor grandson, who was still young and needed guidance.
