"Yes, this is Zhang Erlang's home. Are you Erlang's friend?"
She looked at the strange man in front of her suspiciously, because in Mo's impression, she seemed to have never seen this kind of person come to Guangming Village.
The strange man immediately introduced himself.
"Sister, my name is Luo Dahu. My wife is the younger sister of Chunhua, Erlang's wife. Recently, our hometown has been plagued by insect pests, so all the crops have been harvested. I don't see much farm work, so I wanted to come to my sister's house for a visit."
"Oh, why are you alone? Where's your wife? Isn't she coming with you?"
"She's coming, but she needs to sort out some things, so she'll probably be here two days late."
"Arriving two days late? That's not right. The baby you're holding is obviously newborn. How can the baby survive if it leaves its mother so early?"
As soon as he asked this question, the baby in Luo Dahu's arms started crying loudly.
Luo Dahu was so scared that he quickly explained.
"No, big sister, this baby is not mine. I found it on the way to Guangming Village. It was raining heavily outside, and I saw that some fool had left it under a big tree. I heard it crying, and I couldn't just stand by and watch it die, right? So I brought the baby to my sister."
"Oh, I see."
"Sister, can you call my sister or brother-in-law out for a moment? The child might be hungry. If she doesn't eat, I'm afraid she won't make it through the day."
"Your sister is giving birth in the house..."
Just as she finished saying this, Mrs. Mo suddenly covered her mouth and looked at Luo Dahu as if he were her savior. She said anxiously, "Give the child to me. I'll let Chunhua feed her. Chunhua just gave birth and she has milk now."
Luo Dahu hurriedly handed the baby in his arms to Mrs. Mo.
Mrs. Mo had just brought the baby into Zhao Chunhua's room.
At this time, Zhao Chunhua woke up again. She took one look at the crying baby in Mo's arms and was indescribably excited. She asked, "Sister-in-law, is that... my child in your arms? Can I see him?"
"Chunhua, our child has already..."
Mrs. Mo immediately interrupted Erleng.
"I just changed the quilt for your child, but the black blanket on the outside is not comfortable. I'll take it off first. Chunhua, you can feed the baby later!"
"I'm really sorry to bother you, sister-in-law."
"What trouble are you talking about? I'm being polite."
As she spoke, Mrs. Mo took off the big black blanket that wrapped the baby, leaving only a small red quilt, and handed the baby to Zhao Chunhua.
Zhao Chunhua, who was completely unaware of the situation, actually thought the baby she was holding was her own child. After feeding the child, she was exhausted and finally fell asleep holding the child.
After making sure Zhao Chunhua was sound asleep, Erlang stepped forward and asked, "Sister-in-law, what's going on?"
So, Madam Mo told Erlang about Luo Dahu bringing an abandoned baby. She then said, "Anyway, this child was abandoned by someone else, and your child died young. I think this is God's will. I think you should just treat this child as Sister Chunhua's. Look at how weak Sister Chunhua is now. If she wakes up and finds out her child is gone, she definitely won't be able to bear the blow."
"Sister-in-law, will this really work? You don't know Luo Dahu. If he lets the cat out of the bag, won't it be a bigger blow to my wife in the future?"
