"Come, move that box next to the eldest daughter," the Prime Minister's wife ordered proudly.
Who can blame her for having such an outstanding daughter?
Looking at the box that had been moved to her feet, Nan Qianyue's lips twitched for a long time but she couldn't manage a smile.
She suspected the Prime Minister's wife was trying to slack off, but she had no proof.
The weather was warm and sunny, which should have been perfect for leisure and relaxation, but instead, I had to complete a box of homework during my southward migration month. I never experienced this back in my school days.
