However, there was still the mother-in-law left in the yard, with a baby who showed his teeth and drooled at everyone he saw.
"Hey, Xingyao is back? Why didn't you tell me in advance? Yuling was on a business trip. She said she was taking a team of experts to Lan City to build a new factory. But she also said before she left that she wouldn't be gone for a few days.

Li Qingmei didn't take it, and dodged it with a smile, "It's all the same, just a bowl and a pair of chopsticks, it doesn't matter who cleans it up. You're just right, practice in advance, how will you be a father later!"
