Auntie Lu drove the oxcart to Ning Yu's home. There weren't many residents here, and they were all separated by a long distance. The walls of the courtyard weren't high, and one could see the houses inside. They were rather old, but the courtyard was very clean, with three main rooms, one on the left and one on the right.

This was Ning Yu's home.

Zhan Xiaolou jumped down from the carriage and then turned to help Ning Yu. Ning Yu was stunned for a moment before she clenched her fists and looked away.

Naturally, Zhan Xiaolou knew what he was worried about and so he retracted his hand. He said something about being careful and then stood to the side.

Ning Yu grabbed onto the edge of the carriage and jumped off as well. She thanked Zhan Xiaolou before she heard someone call out his name from the inside. Following that, a violent coughing sound could be heard. It was his mother.

”Xiao Yu? Did you come back? ”Cough, cough, cough …”

Ning Yu sighed. ”Mom, it's me.” Then he turned to Lou Zigui and Auntie Lu and said, ”I'll go heat up some hot water first. You can all go in and rest. I … The house is too simple, I hope you don't take offense to it. ”

Zhan Xiaolou shook his head and replied, ”It's quite alright. Don't be in such a hurry to boil water for now! ”First get some water, then I'll wash my hands. Then, let's take a look at Aunt Ning's condition first, shall we?” The patient was the first. She wanted to determine the illness as soon as possible.

”Right, we aren't thirsty either. Let Little Lou see your mother first.” Auntie Lu also wanted to settle the matter here as soon as possible, so she went to see Lu Yi.

Ning Yu hurriedly nodded. ”Okay!” I'll go right now! ” After speaking, he quickly found a wooden basin and filled it with water. Zhan Xiaolou washed his hands and wiped them with a cloth before following Ning Yu to the east room.

As soon as she entered the room, she could smell a strong medicinal smell along with a damp smell. She hurriedly said, ”Remember to open the windows during the day to let the patients know that the ventilation is good. Moreover, the weather is mild now. The patients won't get cold.”

Ning Yu hurriedly nodded. ”I'll remember that!” My mother is inside, sorry to trouble you. ”
