Yu You said to her father again: "Dad, the weather is getting colder and colder. How are we going to survive the winter? A stove is easy to buy, but coal briquettes are hard to come by. Do we need a kang?"
Yu Weimin said worriedly: "Neither your father nor I know how to build a kang!"
Yu You suddenly had an idea: "Dad, isn't Uncle Zhou a construction engineer? Why don't we go ask him?"

Yu You washed the last bit of powder in the paper bag with hot water and said to Qin Wei, "Dad, you can stop taking the medicine after this one. It's okay as long as you recover. It's not good to take too much of this anti-inflammatory medicine."
