"Let me take a look at you," Wang Yao said.
"OK," the old man said.
Wang Yao took a close look at the old man to make sure he was alright.
"I'll give you an acupuncture therapy when your wife is back," Wang Yao said.
The old man's wife soon came back from outside. She had a bottle of soy sauce in her hand. Apparently, she had gone grocery shopping.
"Hello, Dr. Wang," the old woman said.
"Hello, Ma'am. Are you feeling better?" Wang Yao asked.
"Much better. There is no pain in my legs anymore," the old woman happily replied.
"Good. I was about to take a look at your husband. It is a bit cold here," Wang Yao said. He didn't feel cold, but the old man would feel cold after taking his clothes off for massage and acupuncture therapy.
"I'll start a fire," she said. Soon, the heatable brick bed was nice and warm. The room was warmer, too.
"Sir, can you take your clothes off?" Wang Yao asked.
