Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 1572: Chapter 1275:

Captain Kang didn’t speak, but from his expression, it was clear he shared Cai Xiufen’s thoughts.

...

As it neared 7 PM, the three large tables of appetizing reunion meals were laid out.

Each table was fully occupied.

"Dad, Mom, I toast you both. Thank you for taking care of Xiao Li and the kids all these years!" Luo Yanqing couldn’t drink alcohol but insisted on toasting Captain Kang and his wife with white liquor.

In his view, using tea as a substitute for liquor showed a lack of sincerity.

"It seems Li Bao hasn’t offended you, and the reason you can’t get along with Li Bao is due to jealousy."

As Kang Guoan spoke, he noticed Wang Pan’s emotions noticeably changed. He paused for a moment and continued, "In your family, you were spoiled by your parents and brothers; you were their treasure. After marrying me,

you found that my sister was not only spoiled by my parents and us brothers but also by sisters-in-law and nephews. You were jealous, so you made trouble out of nothing, saying Li Bao’s concern was her hoping you’ll get sick,

and even claimed she was cursing you. Wang Pan... do you remember you and my sister were not just classmates but friends? If it weren’t for you and my sister being together back then, do you think I would have noticed you?"

"You... don’t tell me you married me because you liked your sister?" Facing Kang Guoan’s emotionless gaze, Wang Pan stared at him: "Kang Guoan, speak up, why aren’t you saying something?"

Lips tightly pursed, Kang Guoan fell silent. After a moment, he said expressionlessly, "Without my sister, I wouldn’t have noticed you. As we got together, I thought you were a bright and cheerful girl,

a bit spoiled but very genuine. But what you said to me today makes me doubt that my initial perception might have been mistaken."

Footsteps approached, and Kang Guoan looked over to see Kang Li drawing near.

"Brother, maybe sister-in-law misunderstood me somehow, I’ll come to talk to her."

Facing Kang Guoan, Kang Li smiled, then turned her gaze to Wang Pan: "Fifth Sister-in-law, I truly didn’t mean anything else before, so please don’t overthink. Besides, if I have offended you in any way, you can speak up. If it was indeed my fault, I apologize; otherwise, let’s clear the air."

Wang Pan kept her head down, ignoring Kang Li completely.

Seeing this, Kang Guoan suppressed his displeasure and said to Kang Li, "Alright, Li Bao, your Fifth Sister-in-law is currently in her menstrual period, and her body is indeed not feeling well."

Hearing this, Kang Li responded with an "Oh" to show acknowledgment, then said, "How about I make Fifth Sister-in-law a cup of ginger sugar water?" Without waiting for Kang Guoan’s response, Kang Li turned and left.

"Did you hear?" Kang Guoan rubbed his forehead and said, "Li Bao is always considerate. She never makes trouble for no reason and never clashes with her family. Think it over!"

Wang Pan couldn’t listen to Kang Guoan’s words, she sobbed, "Are you saying I’m the one making trouble?"

"Isn’t it?"

Looking up, Kang Guoan’s gaze was calm and reserved, he stared at Wang Pan: "You must understand that in our family, you are not the only daughter-in-law who will give birth to a son, and my mother took care of you and the child for a whole month during your postpartum, but how did you treat my mother?

You thought of my mother as a countryside person, and everytime it was mealtime during your postpartum period, you kept reminding her to wash her hands, to pay attention to personal hygiene. Since you were in postpartum, my mom never argued with you and didn’t allow me to mention anything in front of you.

But do you know that your words and actions are an insult to my mother?

Yes, our family indeed comes from the countryside, my mother is a typical rural woman, but in what way does she ever behave dirty?"

Seeing Wang Pan’s clearly guilty expression, all the pent-up anger in Kang Guoan suddenly surged: "Since you look down on rural folks so much, why did you want to be with me in the first place?

Wang Pan, remember, I am a country boy, my parents are farmers. If you despise my parents, it’s equivalent to despising me.

If you feel wronged marrying me, I’m ready for you to talk about divorce at any time.

Moreover, as a city dweller and a North City person, do you dare to declare that three generations up in your family are not from a peasant background?"

After a brief pause, Kang Guoan amplified his tone: "Honestly, I don’t understand where you get the nerve to look down on others, but comparing your family with mine now, do you think your family can compare with mine?"
