As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the government officials were about to escort Shopkeeper Tian and Tian Sihai away.
Shopkeeper Tian took a few steps before barely regaining his senses, "Honorable officers, honorable officers, the County Magistrate gave the order, and I dare not disobey. But I have a request for you esteemed officers to show mercy. My daughter-in-law is pregnant, and today, due to a few quarreling words with my wife, she has disturbed her fetus. I was just about to let my son go fetch a doctor."
"I dare not delay on behalf of the County Magistrate, but I beg you officers, could you please invite a doctor from the Peace Clinic to see my daughter-in-law, to preserve this lineage?"
Since the Dragon Boat Festival that day, when he inserted the incense into the dragon boat, Shopkeeper Tian's eyelids had been incessantly twitching, and his heart had been uneasy, always feeling that something was about to happen.
