Chapter 960: Chapter 957: Eating More Vinegar Is Good for Your Health
"Just because it hasn’t happened doesn’t mean it won’t."
Captain Kang’s expression was heavy: "Whose child isn’t precious? Those city kids who can marry our local boys or wed our local girls, they’re clever!
Before choosing a partner, they’ll first look at the other family’s conditions, labor situation, and whether the partner is favored at home; otherwise, they won’t easily talk about marriage."
Kang Li was slightly surprised, then incredulous: "Dad, isn’t what you said a bit too much?"
"I know what you’re trying to say."
Captain Kang shook his head: "You’re smart, but you’re still inexperienced. Those people are all cunning! Not to mention others, just take Educated Youth Su from our village; if she wasn’t interested in Zhou Weimin’s family’s situation and his job at the town supply and marketing cooperative, would she have ruined your engagement?"
Once he finished speaking, Captain Kang realized something was wrong. He turned his gaze to Luo Yanqing: "My mention of Li Bao and Zhou Weimin has no other meaning, just using Educated Youth Su as an example of cunning, don’t let this cause a rift between you and Li Bao."
"It won’t."
Luo Yanqing’s lips curved into a shallow smile as he glanced at Kang Li: "Xiao Li was just engaged to that person; to me, it’s nothing to worry about. Besides, you just made things clear. If I still feel uncomfortable about it, Xiao Li would say I’m jealous."
Captain Kang didn’t quite grasp Luo Yanqing’s latter words, so he said: "Eating more vinegar is good for your health."
Kang Li couldn’t help but laugh aloud.
Luo Yanqing, seeing this, touched his nose and let out a mild laugh, feeling a bit uneasy.
Watching the two of them, Captain Kang looked puzzled but didn’t ask anything.
...
Before sleeping at night, Cai Xiufen asked Captain Kang: "Li Bao agreed so quickly?"
"He came to our door, and Li Bao could agree, which means she knows she can handle this herself. Moreover, Li Bao later told me that the university the Cui Family’s son-in-law got accepted into is the same university Aunt Li works at, so finding someone won’t be a hassle."
As Captain Kang finished speaking, Cai Xiufen said: "It’s not a hassle, but it’s a matter of personal favor."
"So what should we do? Should Li Bao refuse to help even when she can? You didn’t see Old Cui wiping his tears in front of me, I felt really bad. At that moment, I even thought,
If I were Old Cui, I would do the same. As long as there’s a sliver of hope, I’d beg without hesitation just so my daughter, whom I’ve raised so dearly, can be normal again, can live well in the future!"
"Spit, spit, spit, what are you talking about?"
Cai Xiufen smacked the blankets over Captain Kang twice: "My daughter is fine in every way, don’t curse my Li Bao for no reason, or you won’t get any sleep tonight!"
Captain Kang felt wronged: "How am I cursing our Li Bao? I’m just..."
"Just what? I’ll tell you, if you don’t want to be kicked out of bed now, you’d better keep your mouth shut tight!"
Giving Captain Kang a kick under the covers, Cai Xiufen shifted and put some distance between herself and Captain Kang, fiercely pulling the blanket to her side, and in the next moment, Captain Kang’s voice, full of frustration, rang out:
"Can you be reasonable, woman? I was just speaking casually, and without any ill intention. Why are you still holding onto it?"
