The Xu Household was large.
Although Mr. Xu An's courtyard was within the Xu Household, it had a separate entrance. There were not many descendants in Xu An's branch; he only had one son, Xu Lin, and two daughters who were married off.
Mrs. Xu passed away early. Xu An spent a lifetime curing countless patients, yet he couldn't save his own wife.
This too was a lifelong pain for him.
The two daughters were not born to Mrs. Xu; Xu An married two concubines, each giving him a daughter.
The two concubines were proper women, and one now served tea while the other administered medicine, taking care of the old man with dedication.
