After arriving in town, Xue Yue stopped by the state-run restaurant to buy a few buns, then carried them with her to the hospital.
She asked around at the hospital and learned that only one family had brought someone in for a fever in the middle of the night.
When Xue Yue entered the hospital room, she saw Mrs. He on an IV drip. Mr. He was seated in a chair nearby. He Lang was on the floor, leaning against the wall and dozing, while his eldest brother, He Nan, stood leaning against the wall.
"Father, how's Mom?"
Only then did they notice Xue Yue had arrived.
"Xue Yue, what are you doing here? Your mother's fine. She just caught a chill. We can go home once her IV drip is finished."
Xue Yue said, "I was worried, so I came to have a look. I also brought you all something to eat."
Xue Yue placed the food on the bedside table, took out the buns, and handed one to Mr. He, who accepted it and immediately started eating.
