Lu Jiao was jolted awake and she did not like that. She figured that Baohe Tang sent someone here on a horse. They must have accepted an emergency patient or else they wouldn't have rushed over here before sunrise.
Lu Jiao yawned and walked outside.
Inside the east bedroom, Xie Xiaobao and the four little ones had woken up from the noise as well and they ran outside.
Lu Jiao ran into them and the children happily greeted her, "Mommy, you're back!"
"Yeah, I came back a while ago."
As they chatted, someone got off the horse carriage. Unexpectedly, the person who came today was Baohe Tang's Manager Li.
When Manager Li saw Lu Jiao, he started to shout anxiously, "Lady Lu, hurry, come with me to Baohe Tang. We have with us a pregnant woman with dystocia. The mother's water broke last night but still has not given birth. If this drags on longer, the child may die in her stomach."
