Chapter 98 Looks suspicious

At this time, many people in the carriage had boarded the train in the middle of the night and were resting.

The baby's sudden cry was particularly loud in the car.

But in just three minutes, most of the sleeping people in the carriage were woken up.

Lu Nanzhou was no exception. He just woke up from his sleep. There was a sense of stupid clarity in his eyes. After a while, he came back to his senses. He first glanced at Xu Nan, then frowned and looked at the source of the sound.

go.

The baby's crying continued, and the middle-aged man and woman's movements in coaxing the child seemed a bit unfamiliar. After coaxing the baby for a long time, the baby's crying not only did not stop, but became louder and louder.

The crying lasted for almost twenty minutes, and the baby's voice was obviously much hoarse compared to the beginning.

The people around me were initially understanding, but gradually became impatient.

Xu Nan frowned and looked over. The middle-aged man and woman holding a child were sitting in front of them, about two rows away from her and Lu Nanzhou.

There were a few strands of white hair in the woman's hair. Seeing that her movements in coaxing the child were unfamiliar, Xu Nan guessed that she must be the child's grandmother.

At this time, the quiet car suddenly became noisy. Passengers in the car said to the middle-aged man and woman:

"Hey, this child's voice is almost hoarse from crying. You guys have been coaxing him for a long time, but it has no effect at all?"

"That's it. This child is crying pitifully. Is he hungry or peed? You two should take a look. If you just keep coaxing him, what's the use?"

After Lu Nanzhou heard this, he couldn't help but look up. As a doctor, after hearing the words of the people around him, the child was crying no matter how much he coaxed him. Maybe it was because his body was not convinced.

Just by looking at them, he clearly noticed something was wrong with the two of them.

After the middle-aged couple heard what everyone in the carriage said, they not only did not follow what others said to check on their child's physical condition.

Instead, he lowered his head even lower, not daring to look at the faces that everyone was looking at.

Xu Nan sat next to Lu Nanzhou, knowing that he was not a nosy person. Seeing his frown getting tighter, he looked over curiously.

I saw the middle-aged couple, under the suspicious eyes of everyone, hurriedly opened the swaddling clothes of the baby in their arms, checked it, but quickly closed it again.

After the kind people around saw it, they opened their mouths and gave guidance:

"This child hasn't pooped or peed. If he's crying like this, he's probably hungry."

"You two seem to be quite young, how come you don't even have this bit of common sense?"

"Yes, at your age, are you the child's grandparents or parents?"

People around asked suspiciously. After all, these two couples looked like they were the parents of a child. At this age, they definitely couldn’t be the parents of a child. They would have some experience. However, no matter how they looked, the actions of these two couples

, all seemed so unfamiliar.

They are said to be the child's grandparents, but they don't look alike in age.

"That's right. When you go out with your child, why are you carrying such a small bag?"

"Don't talk about milk powder and diapers when you go out. It seems to me that you don't bring any of them?"

Seeing that everyone was pressing the question too hard, the woman in the middle-aged couple had no choice but to respond:

"No, no, I am this child's distant cousin. My sister passed away during childbirth, and I came all the way to pick up the child and bring him back to my hometown."

"You see, I haven't held a child in decades. My movements are a bit rusty. I have even forgotten how to carry a child."

When the people around him heard this, half of their suspicions disappeared immediately, and when they looked at the child, there was pity in their eyes.

But this explanation was obviously too far-fetched. Xu Nan and Lu Nanzhou looked at each other, and due to a tacit understanding, they both saw suspicion in each other's eyes.

Xu Nan pulled Lu Nanzhou's arm, motioned him to lower his head, put his lips close to his ear, and said in a voice that only two people could hear:

"Something's wrong. Look at that child. It looks like he's about five months old. He's obviously not a newborn."

What's more, it's a difficult delivery. How could the child's father not be around? And why would he have to take a train all the way to give birth to the child?

The words of this middle-aged couple were full of loopholes, but there was no corroborating evidence at the moment, so Xu and Nan had no choice but to observe.

Under the urging of everyone, the middle-aged couple took out a box of pure milk from a worn-out backpack, tore open the milk bag, poured it into a mineral water bottle, and then directed it toward the baby.

pour it into your mouth.

Ice pure milk, plastic water bottle, feed the child directly?

Xu Nan opened her mouth in shock. After all, no matter how poor you are these days, you won't be able to feed your children directly from plastic bottles. What's more, the milk is not suitable for babies at all, and it is also iced.

Lu Nanzhou, who was sitting aside, couldn't bear it anymore. He walked directly to the couple, stretched out his hand to stop their behavior, frowned and said:

"Babies have weak spleens and stomachs and are not suitable for drinking milk. Babies at this month of age should drink formula milk. If you continue to feed them like this, your baby's gastrointestinal problems will occur."

Seeing Lu Nanzhou approaching and saying this, the middle-aged couple trembled visibly. The man looked impatient. But seeing everyone around them staring at them, he had no choice but to endure his temper and explain to Lu Nanzhou.

:

"Child, of course we know it is wrong to feed her this way, but given our family conditions, it is already very difficult to raise this child, let alone buy milk powder."

Hearing what he said, people around him also asked suspiciously:

"But this milk is not much more expensive than formula milk powder. If you feed your children this way, the cost will be much more expensive than drinking milk powder."

Seeing that the explanations became more and more confusing, the middle-aged man lost all patience and scolded the kind person who just spoke:

"How I raise my children is none of your business? I can feed them whatever I want? It's none of your business!"

"Hey you, I'm talking to you out of kindness, what's your attitude?"

Seeing that the momentum was not right, the two people were arguing more and more fiercely, as if they were about to fight in the next second. Seeing this, the middle-aged woman took out a free hand holding the child and pinched the man's thigh fiercely.

Pain hit him, and the middle-aged man seemed to have just come back to his senses. He shut his mouth directly, but his eyes were still staring at the kind man.

Seeing that the situation was not right, the middle-aged woman could only bite the bullet and explain to Lu Nanzhou and the others:

"I'm sorry, young man, the child just lost his mother, and we both feel uncomfortable. My man is a bit grumpy, and he didn't mean to do it."

"When this milk was still in the hospital, a kind person gave it to us, so we used it to feed our child. I thought that there was milk on the left and right, so this child is the same as everyone else."

After saying that, she glanced at Lu Nanzhou and saw that the suspicion on his face was still there, and there was also a bit of impatience on his face. When she spoke, her tone was obviously not as good as before:

"Say, young man, I've explained this to you, why are you still standing here?"

"I advise you not to meddle in other people's business!"
