Fang's mother shed another round of tears.
"Young Miss, they told this old servant that you came to me to learn about your past. Please ask whatever you want to know."
Xiao Qingyin then inquired about Yun's difficult childbirth.

In the last few years before his death, he compiled his lifelong medical experience into a book, printed it out, and placed it in Qianjintang, where anyone who wanted to learn medicine could obtain a copy for free.

At this point, intense anger flashed in Fang's mother's eyes.
