Ran Yan set aside all distractions and began to massage the old lady with grease.
The so-called grease was actually plant oil mixed with several herbs by Ran Yan to relax the mind and body, its primary purpose being to avoid too much dryness and damage to the skin during scraping therapy.

Given the challenging conditions, she economized where she could. Ignoring the peculiar looks from Lady Qi beside her, Ran Yan began the scraping therapy.
