Story summary
Zhao Xiue has done manual labor and worked as a caregiver, yet on her first time helping Shen Henian up, she nearly makes a mistake from using too much force. Shen Henian does not blame her, only telling her to take it slowly. One is forthright in speech and brisk in action, while the other is quiet, restrained, and limited in daily life; the story begins with the start of this caregiving relationship, bringing out their distinct life experiences.
