In the evening, it was already dark when Zhou Ying and her husband returned home. They were exhausted after a day on the mountain.
When they returned home, Gu Chengrui still had to head to their old house to see how the two patients were doing. If they were awake, he would be entirely at ease.
Zhou Ying moved some firewood out of her interspace and stacked it in the shed. Then, she simply washed her face and started a fire to cook dinner.
The meal was simple. She stir-fried a plate of cabbage with vinegar, mixed it with a plate of mustard and fungus, and finally took out a roasted chicken from her interspace. She cut it up and put it on a plate. Finally, she cooked a small pot of rice and mung bean congee.
When she was almost done, Gu Chengrui returned. She turned and asked, "Rui, how's it going over there?"
