"Little sister, where are you headed?" Li Nuanchun quickened her pace and went downstairs, pulling Tong Yao towards her own room, she hastily explained, "I just went up to the rooftop to dry my quilt."
When Tong Yao heard the footsteps coming from the stairwell, she understood, "Sister-in-law, I just wanted to ask if you know where I can order fresh milk."
On any ordinary day, Li Nuanchun would not be able to resist chiding Tong Yao for her spending habits. But now, out of fear Tong Yao would discover her secret, she vaguely replied: "Yanmei gets fresh milk for Baodan. It gets delivered to the entrance of the residential building every day. If you want, you can just wake up early tomorrow and go tell the milkman."
"Alrighty! Thanks, sister-in-law."
After asking about the milk, Tong Yao went back to her room. Li Meiyu's room door was closed, and it was silent inside, she must have gone out.
