Only she and Jie Jingshan were home. If she left and something happened to Jie Jingshan, she wouldn't even know where to begin to cry.
"Sister-in-law, I'll be fine at home. You should go take a look," Jie Jingshan said.
"Forget it. I'll stay here with you." Qin Mei shook her head. She knew her priorities.
"Doctor Qiao!" an anxious voice called out.
The voice arrived before the person did. It was unfamiliar, and Qin Mei looked toward the courtyard gate.
Jie Jingshan, however, was very familiar with the voice. She said to Qin Mei, "That's Granny Guo. She lives in the same courtyard as Second Auntie."
"Doctor Qiao, is Doctor Qiao home?" Granny Guo's voice was choked with sobs. "Doctor Qiao, please save my daughter-in-law and her unborn child!"
'A pregnant woman? One slip and two lives could be lost.' Qin Mei had a bad feeling about this.
"Granny Guo, my mom isn't home from work yet," Jie Jingshan said.
