Nan Qianyue smiled and pulled Alan forward, "This is all thanks to Alan."
"Miss Zhu is very skillful," Bai Shu praised.
Alan bowed slightly. "Dr. Bai is truly apt."
"Judging from Miss Zhu's demeanor, she doesn't seem like someone who does manual labor," Bai Shu said, his tone seemingly joking.
Nanqianyue raised her eyebrows slightly, thinking to herself, "Brother Bai really has a keen eye for people."
Alan smiled and lowered her head. "I've had a lot of interactions with the young ladies from noble families in the county town, and over time I've learned some manners. I hope you'll forgive my ignorance, Doctor Bai."
"where."
Bai Shu didn't say anything more, his gaze falling on Nan Qianyue, "A Yue, your hair isn't completely dry, why don't you go over and dry it?"
Nanqianyue once again marveled at Bai Shu's keen observation skills, nodded with amusement, and walked towards the stove where medicine was being boiled.
"Miss Nan, the fire's too hot over here, come grill over here!"
Wang Agou waved enthusiastically, his dark face beaming with a silly, joyful grin.
Nan Qianyue glanced at it and quickly refused, "No need, I don't want to smell like meat."
Wang Agou paused for a second before immediately realizing what was happening, and a silly grin returned to his face. "Hehehe, it was my oversight."
"Brother Bai, how are the villagers doing?" Nan Qianyue turned to ask Bai Shu, who was sitting next to her adding firewood.
Bai Shu moved very gently, without stirring up any dust. "It's stabilized now, but we might need to be a little more careful with the older ones."
The older one, isn't that Alan's grandfather?
Why doesn't Alan ask about her grandfather's condition?
"Dr. Bai, how is my grandfather? He has never been in good health, and now he has contracted the plague. I'm afraid he will have a very difficult time."
Alan's question was perfectly timed, instantly silencing Nanqianyue's suspicions.
Bai Shu comforted him, "Don't worry, your grandfather is doing well now, he just needs to take more medicine than others."
Alan bit her lower lip, looking somewhat guilty. "Then...then I'll help you brew the medicine. I'm healthy and can do some manual labor."
Bai Shu was very understanding. “You don’t need to feel guilty. Most of the medicine here was donated by the people of Dongling. You are citizens of Dongling, so you should enjoy it.”
Alan's eyes reddened as she listened. "Thank you for your understanding, Dr. Bai."
A hint of doubt appeared on the face of the person migrating south.
Did she misjudge him? Was Alan just an ordinary villager?
No.
We need to test the waters a bit more.
