Bai Xiaolan also realized recently Xiaobei didn't visit as often. The weather was hot, and she felt slow and heavy in her body, not keen on wandering around. She had considered going to ask Xiaobei, but upon further reflection, she realized the issue was with her mother, and she was unsure of how to address it.
Bai Xiaolan originally wanted to talk to Zhou Siping about it, but after consideration, she felt that if she blurted out to Zhou Siping that Xiaobei hardly visited the courtyard due to her, it would only put Xiaobei in an awkward position.
Laying in bed at night, Bai Xiaolan couldn't help but grumble to Ji Xiangdong: "With my mom around, Xiaobei doesn't bring her kids over any more. This is not good if it's going to be an ongoing thing."
"What happened?" Ji Xiangdong, who had been busy with work and coming home late, wouldn't know whether Xiaobei was visiting during the daytime or not.
