Because they were really too destitute, Manbao didn't let Shi Xiu and Liu Sanniang ask them more questions. However, she still let the two take their pulse, while she stood to the side and wrote down the pulse case. After they were done, she told the wife in the couple, "You don't have any major problems, but if you want to have children, you'd better take some medicine to regulate your body. I'll prescribe a month's worth of medicine. After you finish, pay more attention to your health, eat some meat or eggs, and gradually nurse your body back to health."
Then she said to the husband, "You have some issues. I'll prescribe you some medicine to take for half a month first and see how it goes. After half a month..."
She frowned and thought for a moment, "After half a month's rest period, you should visit Jishi Hall. It's best to go in the morning. I'll take a look then and give you a new prescription."
The man got excited, "Does that mean my illness can be cured?"
