"Get up and walk around the living room in a bit, so your stomach doesn’t feel upset."
Kang Li made an acknowledging sound.
Cai Xiufen went to the kitchen.
"Mom..." Kang Li followed her into the kitchen, leaning against the doorframe, watching her mother wash the dishes, bowls, and chopsticks she had used, and said, "You’ve been working hard these days!"
"What’s this about working hard or not?!"
Cai Xiufen glanced at her beloved daughter and said, "Isn’t the reason I’m here in North City to take care of you? Besides, it’s not like our old home where there’s endless chores to do. Aside from cooking for Ruirui and taking them to and from school, I’m mostly free."
"Free? I saw the sweater you’re knitting on the couch."
Kang Li pouted rather petulantly and said, "I’ve told you more than once not to tire yourself out knitting sweaters, but you never listen, always keeping yourself busy."
Cai Xiufen dried the dishes and chopsticks and put them away in their places. She said, "You know, when you get to a certain age, if you sit around doing nothing all day, not only will you feel uncomfortable, but it’s also quite easy to fall ill."
After tidying up the kitchen, the mother and daughter returned to the living room.
"Mom, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
Sitting down on the sofa, Kang Li saw her mother hesitating to speak and couldn’t help but look puzzled.
"Today, at lunchtime, a young couple came to the gate of the compound, claiming they were Yanqing’s brother and sister-in-law..."
Cai Xiufen told her about Meng Xingsheng and Cui Shuicao appearing at the compound gate earlier that day. In the end, she said, "However, Yanqing told me not to bother with them, and ultimately they didn’t manage to come in."
