"Oh my, why is he crying so hard all of a sudden?" Ma Xiaocai put down the luggage and took the baby from Su Hai's arms, trying to calm him down by rocking him to no avail. "Hmm, the diaper is not spoiled. Could he be hungry? I think we should return first to tend to this little one, don't you agree?" she directed the question to Su Hai, receiving a nod of agreement in return.
Ma Boliu helped pick up their luggage. "Then we should hurry. He must not have gotten accustomed to being here yet. Poor boy, look at him crying so pitifully."
He ushered the two women to go on, but then he abruptly recalled that they were not the only ones here. Only then did he turn to Song Zhuyu, who was still frozen on the spot. "Ah, Mr. Song, apologies for the ruckus. Do you have any business around here? Is there something I can help you with?"
