Yun Jinnian struggled for a while but quieted down upon hearing Chu Yu's words.
Rourou spoke up, "You go to sleep, I'll heat up some water for you to wash up!"
Not asking where he had been?
Not inquiring what had happened, content just to be there for him!
Chu Yu gently released his hand, Yun Jinnian slowly climbed out of bed, dressed, brought water from the clean room, and with his own towel, wiped Chu Yu's face and hands, gently cleaning each finger.
Noticing his nails had grown long and there were wounds on his hands.
Glancing outside to check the time, it was already the ninth day of the ninth lunar month, he then took an oil lamp and found scissors, sitting by the bed cautiously trimming Chu Yu's fingernails.
Afterwards, he applied ointment to the wounds.
He fetched a stool, brought more hot water from the clean room, and prepared to wash Chu Yu's feet.
