Back in the house, Lady Zhang glanced at Lian Manman, who was still giggling, and smiled while shaking her head.
"Sis, what are you laughing at?" Xiao Qi also noticed Lian Manman's smile and asked.
"Nothing much," Lian Manman certainly couldn't voice her thoughts, so she said perfunctorily, "Xiao Qi, rest for a bit, then go to the study with our brother to read."
"Let him rest a while longer. Studying is mentally taxing and exhausting," Lady Zhang quickly said, then asked Xiao Qi, "What snack do you want today?"
Speaking of which, Lady Zhang wasn't a strict mother; often, her attitude towards the children was indulgent and doting. Fortunately, all the children were very self-disciplined.
"Mom, you don't have to keep bringing me snacks. I eat well during meals and am not hungry," Xiao Qi said.
"So, is there anything you want to eat today?" Lady Zhang asked again.
