Di Yelei didn't return until late, and when he did, he carried with him the strong smell of alcohol.
Despite her desperation to immediately inquire about the situation in court, Liu Sisi forced herself to suppress the urgency in her heart. She hurriedly ordered someone to bring water and to attend to Di Yelei as he washed up.
"Are the children all asleep?"
Di Yelei seemed a bit drunk, swaying slightly as he walked. He looked at Liu Sisi with a sincere smile.
"All the children went to bed one after another, except Chou Chou, who was particularly fussy. In the end, it was little Xiao Xiao who was sensible and took him away."
Liu Sisi spoke while continuing to make the bed without interruption.
Such trivial matters as making the bed could have been done by the servants, but Liu Sisi was used to doing things by herself and had not changed her ways.
