After dinner, Li Qiao and Qin Jin walked the dog and went to bed, but Old Mrs. Qin tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
She had recently taken Jin for a thorough health check-up; there was not a single issue.
Qiaoqiao must be fine, too.

When she was young, her in-laws lived in a different courtyard, and she and Jin's grandfather had much privacy.
Now, living next door to her child really didn't seem proper.
The next day, she made some indirect inquiries about when Qin Jin was going back to their hometown.
