After the small year, there were only a few sporadic cases of illness each day, and with people being cured daily at the medical tents, Yang Heshu saw fewer patients and decided to move all the medical tent patients to the separate courtyard, which was almost empty.
Manbao no longer managed the separate courtyard, focusing instead on the remaining patients at the military camp. As they gradually recovered, the eve of the Lunar New Year approached.
Thinking of returning to the capital for New Year was impossible.
Manbao, holding a hand warmer, was greeted inside by Ying Yue as soon as she got off the carriage. Smiling broadly, she said, "Young Master Bai and the others have all arrived, just waiting for Miss Man."
Manbao shrank her neck and said, "Xiazhou is really cold, much colder than the capital. Fortunately, many of the delivered herbs are for treating colds; otherwise, it would have been a lot of trouble."
