I would ignore it at the moment, whilst filing it away for future reference.
I have observed that many relationships have come under stress during lockdown - a lovely neighbour made some very strange remarks to me (not personally upsetting, but critical and unpleasant about other people, very unlike him).
I also think that coming out of lockdown has increased stress as people cope with more worrying change in routine.
I think:
Your daughter's marriage may be under stress, she may want to see you and chat about it, but didn't want to spoil your first visit.
Your s-i-l may indeed have been 'joking' but is rather out of sorts at the moment, and dealing with his new way of working.
Whatever is going on - and it may be nothing significant, your daughter wants you to visit, so be guided by her.
If she is under stress, she doesn't need to cope with you taking offence, she needs you to be calm and helpful.
I would take the cue from her, and if there are other remarks, it may be time to say something then.
