We also decline to adopt MMG’s definition of “residence” taken from RSA 21:6-a. Though the legislature has established MMG’s definition, that definition does not apply in the context of interpreting language in insurance contracts. RSA 21:1 (2000), entitled “Application,” states that the rules established in RSA chapter 21 apply to the construction of statutes. Because the instant case involves interpretation of contractual, rather than statutory, language, the definition of “residence” that MMG promotes does not apply to the instant case.
