The next morning, as the sky was just faintly beginning to brighten, Song Granny knocked on the door with some urgency, "Lady, lady."
Zhulan opened her eyes and sat up at once. Song Granny wouldn't come knocking early in the morning without good reason. If she was doing so now, it must be that Su Xuan was about to give birth, "I'm getting up now."
As she spoke, Zhulan saw Zhou Shuren getting up as well, "Move aside, let me go have a look."
Zhou Shuren withdrew his legs and rubbed his forehead, "Be careful not to trip over."
Zhulan quickly put on her shoes. Thankfully, it was spring, so the clothes weren't so bulky. She quickly dressed and, pushing open the door, saw Song Granny holding a damp handkerchief. Zhulan took it and wiped her face as she walked, "How is the Magistrate doing?"
Song Granny answered, "Just now, a midwife from the fourth room came over and said the labor had started."
Zhulan asked, "Has someone been sent to notify Imperial Physician Liu?"
