Ms. Ping had a bit of insomnia last night.
She tossed and turned, eyes wide open until midnight.
Today, Xiao Daya also stayed over at home, sharing a room with Ms. Ping.
Exhausted as Xiao Daya was, and not one to worry about things, it didn't take long for her to fall asleep, her snores resonating in the room.
Unable to fall asleep, Ms. Ping felt a rush of annoyance as she listened to Xiao Daya sleep soundly.
Around midnight, she nudged Xiao Daya awake.
Xiao Daya stirred: "Mother, what's wrong?"
Ms. Ping turned over, propped herself on the bed: "My back hurts, rub it for me."
Xiao Daya had no choice but to get up and massage Ms. Ping's back.
Ms. Ping found it very soothing and after a while, feeling more comfortable, she asked Xiao Daya: "What do you think, should I act the part of the mother-in-law tomorrow?"
Xiao Daya was perplexed: "Mother, what are you talking about?"
"I'm asking you whether or not I should act the part of the mother-in-law?"
