After Yegu and Dabao left, Tian Xiaobei was still trying his best to persuade his parents, hoping they would give up the idea of going to Capital City. He just wanted to stay behind to help his parents run the Medical Hall and to marry Xia Dabao and remain together for life.
But no matter what Tian Xiaobei said, Tian Guangren and his wife simply were not willing to relent.
Tian Xiaobei even thought of going on a hunger strike to try to convince his father.
But before Tian Xiaobei had a chance to put his plan into action, Tian Guangren attempted to hang himself.
That day, as soon as Tian Xiaobei stepped out of his room, he saw someone hanging from the old locust tree in the courtyard, and he thought he was dreaming. But to his horror, it turned out to be Tian Guangren hanging from the tree. He quickly called for help and held onto Tian Guangren tightly.
