Bai Suihe rubbed her belly. She didn't feel that raising a baby would be hard work at all; it was simply what a mother ought to do.
"I don't feel comfortable leaving the baby with anyone else," Bai Suihe said with a firm expression. "Besides, Mother has arranged for people to come over. With their help, it won't be too exhausting for me."
Gu Kaiyuan naturally went along with Bai Suihe's wishes, resolving inwardly that he would also help take care of the baby when the time came.
Just as they placed the food on the table, a knock came from the front door.
Gu Kaiyuan frowned, wondering who would come visiting at this hour.
"Master, Miss," Dongmei quickly returned after checking the door. "The village chief is here."
The couple went to the reception hall, where they saw the village chief standing anxiously with two villagers.
"Mr. Gu," Zhu Ziqiang said, his face full of worry. "We've come to ask for your help."
