"Mommy, do we... really have a big house?" he babbled.

Li Qing had sent over some rice and dishes. After Si Jin went to the door to receive them, he closed the door once again.
Qi Qingyao asked if they should wake the children up to eat but Si Jin said there was no need—the children had eaten lots of treats in the morning and were probably not hungry now.
Qi Qingyao carried the children to the bed and covered them with a blanket. After that, she sat down at the dining table.
