"You're really hardworking."
"It's necessary, otherwise I'd have nothing to eat." Xiao Hu responded, "Uncle brought me to the courier station because here, you earn your meal with your hands. We don't keep idlers here."
"Yes, as long as you have hands, feet, and a brain, if you work hard, you'll have food to eat." Chun Nuan said, "Come over here, let me take a look at your ear."
"Um..." Xiao Hu hesitated, "Uncle says my ears are very dirty, afraid that they might disgust the guests and they won't eat. Maybe... you shouldn't look."
"It's okay, didn't you say that I'm a doctor? Doctors don't mind such things." Chun Nuan replied, "I need to look at your ear to understand the situation, then I can prescribe the right medicine."
"Alright then."
Xiao Hu walked over, and Chun Nuan had him sit on a small stool.
"How old are you this year?"
"I'll be fourteen in two months."
Chun Nuan couldn't help but glance at him twice, he was about the same age as Chun Ning, yet a head shorter.
