Summer, 1971. Rain pours down in sheets.
Wearing a bamboo hat, Ye Meiyuan walks five miles through the night to deliver a baby.
She has barely stepped into the west wing of the house when someone grabs her arm.
“Who are you?”
“Ye Meiyuan, midwife at the Qingjiang Maternity Station.”
Oh, the youngest midwife in the county, and the one with the highest rate of safe deliveries.
Nothing special.
