It was getting colder. It was so cold that one could even see one's breath when exhaling.
When they saw Wang Yao, they quickly greeted him. "Hello, Mr. Wang."
"Are you going to the mountain?" Wang Yao asked.
"Yes."
"OK, have a nice day."
Wang Yao turned and walked toward his home. Just as he reached the door, he saw a car speed by and head south of the village.
He thought, Are they here to see a doctor?
Once the car stopped, a man jumped out of the car. Next, a woman carrying a child got out. She had an anxious look on her face. Wang Yao hurriedly turned around. Although his pace was not fast, he was soon at the clinic.
"How come it's closed?"
The man and woman were sweating profusely.
"What's wrong with the child?" Wang Yao asked. The child's face was slightly blue.
"He choked while eating."
"Let me check," Wang Yao said.
