Qin Lei parked the car and started unloading the things one by one, noticing his mother and wife chatting in the courtyard.
"Why are you chatting out here? Come inside, it's cold." Even though spring had arrived, the weather was still very frigid.
"Alright, I didn't realize. You all should wash your hands and have a meal inside where it's warm." Mrs. Qin had become anxious earlier, which was unusual for her to pull aside her son and daughter-in-law the moment they came back for a chat outside.
"Alright, thank you, Mom." Nangong Shulan replied gently.
"Silly girl, we're family. Don't be so formal." Mrs. Qin always treated her daughter-in-law as her own daughter, so their relationship was very good, with no conflicts or arguments ever.
"I won't be so formal in the future. Lele, hurry up and come out to wash your hands and eat." Nangong Shulan smiled and then called her daughter. Had she forgotten to come out for dinner after going inside to keep her school bag?
