"I've been knocking on the door for a long time. What are you doing so early in the morning?" Mrs Lin glanced at the opposite door before she went in after Jiang Yao.
"I'm doing some handicrafts," Jiang Yao explained. Since she was focused on the task, Mrs Lin had knocked on the door for quite a while before Jiang Yao heard it.
When she realized that Mrs Lin's expression did not look quite right, Jiang Yao asked, "Did something happen?"
Mrs Lin nodded, then pulled Jiang Yao to sit on the sofa. It was obvious that she had something to tell Jiang Yao. "You haven't gone out today, right? So two things happened—one good thing and another bad thing!"
"What good thing? What bad thing?" Jiang Yao did not like to go out in the cold weather, so she could not guess what Mrs Lin wanted to say.
