She pulled Mr. Xiao out to help, left the children with Wen Ran and the others to watch, and Mrs. Xiao rolled up her sleeves and got to work in a whirlwind.
As parents, they might not be able to help with much, but making sure the kids get a hot meal is the least they can do, right?
With Mr. and Mrs. Xiao out working and not nearby, Yun Miao finally got the chance to speak.
"Is that your mother-in-law?"
She doesn't seem like a mother-in-law at all, more like a real mom.
No!
Even a real mom might not be this good at showing concern and warmth.
"Yes," Wen Ran had already picked up a child and teased him a bit, "my mother-in-law."
Only then did Wen Ran belatedly realize, where did her husband go?
Bai Zhenzhu lifted the curtain and walked in, holding a teapot and smiling warmly, "I'm back."
She set out three cups, speaking softly, "The weather outside is cold, have some hot tea to warm up."
"Okay, thanks, Grandma."
