Standard Transcription (Traditional Chinese)
新婦服地黃湯來,似減。眠食尚未佳,憂懸不去心。君等前所論事,想必及。謝生未還,何爾。進退不可解,吾當書問也。
English Translation
"The new bride took the Rehmannia decoction, and her condition seems to have improved a bit. However, her sleeping and eating are still not good, and anxiety and worry never leave my heart. The matters you gentlemen discussed previously, I suppose you have reached them. Xie Sheng has not yet returned; why is that? This dilemma is baffling, and I shall write a letter to inquire about it."
