Shen Qinglan watched as a few people left. As she turned back, she saw Qiu Li standing at the doorway holding the child, "I wanted to come out earlier, but it's cold outside, I'm afraid Le'er might catch a chill."
Shen Qinglan smiled at her, "Has Le'er fallen asleep again?"
"Not yet." Qiu Li looked down, glanced tenderly at her son, and then looked up, "It's cold outside, let's talk inside."
Shen Qinglan nodded and looked down at Shen Qingping, "Qingping, why are you doing your homework outside?"
Shen Qingping replied, "The sun will be out soon, it's cold inside."
"Cold inside?" Shen Qinglan raised an eyebrow, "Is there no charcoal left?"
Shen Qingping nodded, "There is, but I prefer basking in the sun."
"Alright then." Shen Qinglan smiled and ruffled his little head, "Go do your homework then, I'll go inside to see little Le'er."
Shen Qingping obediently nodded, "Okay."
Shen Qinglan ruffled his little head once more, then smiled and walked towards Qiu Li's room.
