"Has the lady given birth?"
A tall middle-aged man walked in through the gate from outside the mansion, and while hurriedly walking towards the backyard, he anxiously asked the old woman who was waiting for him at the door.
"It's almost there! It's three fingers dilated! If I'm lucky, I can give birth tonight!"
The old woman wiped the sweat from her forehead and jogged after the middle-aged man, barely able to keep up with his pace.
The huge mansion had five courtyards in and out. The mistress's room in the backyard was crowded with people inside and outside. Servants and maids were coming in and out, all of them busy and sweating.
