Du Residence.
Before dawn, everyone began to busy themselves.
Today is an important day with the master accepting a closed-door disciple, both the master and madam have instructed to handle everything with care.
It’s said that two noble patrons from the Capital City will also be attending the ceremony, making it even more significant.
Fortunately, although the Du Residence retains old staff from past times, who may not be as refined in etiquette as those from the Capital City, the steward and several capable maids and sisters are accustomed to serving Imperial Physician Du and Lady Qi.
With them in charge, the Du Family remains busy yet orderly.
Everywhere, from the rooms and courtyards to the main entrance, has been cleaned thoroughly; the kitchen is brightly lit, and before dawn, they procured ingredients from agreed-upon households, which the kitchen maids are now busy preparing.
Being of age, Imperial Physician Du sleeps little, and upon hearing the commotion outside, he couldn’t stay in bed any longer and decided to get up.
Lady Qi also felt unsettled, and the two rose, freshened up, dressed, and exchanged glances.
After quite a while, Imperial Physician Du chuckled: "Old we may be, having experienced so much, yet we still feel nervous accepting a disciple."
Lady Qi candidly pointed out her worries, insisting on inspecting everywhere.
Imperial Physician Du could only grab a medical text, glancing at it occasionally.
