Fifteen days after Xiaoshu, Shengjing welcomed Dashu.
This was the hottest time of the year in the Liang Dynasty, and the thunderstorms made the humidity and heat of the ground even more oppressive, so much so that even lying on a bamboo mat felt sticky and uncomfortable.
With the sultry heat increasing, there were much fewer visitors to the medical clinics during the day.
Du Changqing arranged red dates on a mixed plate, placed it in front of the counter, and beckoned Ah Cheng to come and eat. Yin Zheng piled up the bamboo tubes that had been used for drinking the slurry, filled them with water, and added the jasmine flowers bought by Xia Rongrong, filling the entire shop with fragrance.
Official Hu came to the clinic early in the morning, asking Ah Cheng to make tea for him.
