It wasn't long before Doctor Cui arrived. Jin Nanxi hurriedly pulled Doctor Cui and ran upstairs. As Doctor Cui was older, he couldn't withstand such hustle and bustled, saying, "Hey, slow down a bit."
It was then that Jin Nanxi realized he had run too fast in his anxiety and apologized, "Doctor Cui, I'm sorry, I was too anxious."
"It's all right, it's all right."
Doctor Cui didn't blame Jin Nanxi. The family members of patients were all like this, rushing around in a panic over major and minor illnesses as if they were about to die.
When Doctor Cui arrived in the room, Xu Niannian had fallen asleep again. Since Jin Nanxi had entered the room before and knew that Xu Niannian slept in pajamas and pants, he saw no need for modesty.
"Doctor Cui, please take a look at my niece-in-law. Is she having a fever?"
Doctor Cui first took Xu Niannian's pulse, then pried open her eyelids to look for a while.
He eventually concluded that she was just running a high fever.
