Chapter 617: Chapter 617: Sour

He Hui’s smile radiated pure bliss.

“Congratulations, Second Sister-in-law, and also congrats to my Second Brother who’s going to be a dad again!”

As Kang Li spoke, she glanced at Second Brother Kang, making the tough guy seem somewhat uneasy.

“Second Brother, Second Sister-in-law.”

Before Kang Li could make introductions, Luo Yanqing and his wife Kang Guosheng greeted them.

The moment He Hui saw Luo Yanqing, her eyes lit up, and she purposefully asked Kang Li, “Li Bao, this is your brother-in-law, huh?”

“Yes, his surname’s Luo, first name Yanqing. Second Sister-in-law calls him Little Luo or Yanqing,” replied Kang Li, smiling.

Upon hearing this, He Hui leaned close to Kang Li’s ear, lowered her voice, and said, “Your brother-in-law is really handsome; you two are a match made in heaven.”

Kang Li smiled, her gaze towards Luo Yanqing filled with tenderness. She said, “Everyone in our family is attractive.”

He Hui also grinned, “Right, right, right, there’s not a single ugly one in our old Kang family.”

Kang Li: “I just love it when Second Sister-in-law speaks the truth.” Upon hearing this, He Hui openly laughed.

A big crowd entered the yard, leaving the neighbors green with envy.

Because in Aoli Village, the Kang family was not only harmonious but also blessed with good-looking descendants, and now the whole family had two more people drawing public rations. Moreover, their only daughter married well, making life in the village even more prosperous and enviable.

“The Team Leader’s second son has also come back, I heard he’s now a regimental cadre.”

“Where did you hear that from?”

“Mu Laosan told me.”

“How does he know?”

“He casually asked Guosheng.”

“Looks like the Team Leader and his wife are really blessed!”

“Isn’t that the truth?!”

“Tomorrow the Team Leader’s house is hosting a banquet, I wonder if it’s open to outsiders.”

“Not sure.”

“Right, Guosheng’s wife seems to be pregnant again!”

“What’s so surprising about that? They already have two sons, it’s perfectly normal for her to be pregnant again!”

“True.”

“Can Li Bao really not have kids?”

Someone changed the topic.

“What does that have to do with us? Don’t be a busybody, or if someone from the Team Leader’s house hears you, they won’t let it slide.”

“I was just thinking, Li Bao has been married for two years but her belly is still flat as it was when she came back this time. It makes me recall those rumors about Li Bao’s health,” remarked Li Daniu, who stood gossiping with Wang Chunhua and The Loudspeaker, among other women.

“You really know how to bring up an awkward subject! Even though those rumors exist, none of them explicitly say Li Bao can’t have kids.”

The Loudspeaker then chimed in, “It’s just that Li Bao isn’t able to conceive easily.”

“If Li Bao can’t have children of her own for her whole life, it’s uncertain if she’ll have anyone to rely on when she’s old. Marrying well is one thing, but without your own kids, you ultimately lack a certain security,” mused Li Daniu sourly.

Wang Chunhua rolled her eyes, “You’re just being a meddler. Aside from saying that her son-in-law’s three kids each look well-off, just consider Guowei and his brothers’ kids, they wouldn’t let their aunt suffer in old age, would they?”

Li Daniu was momentarily speechless.

Indeed, Li Bao had many nephews; if they knew their aunt was destitute, they would undoubtedly care about her welfare.

Besides, Li Bao’s husband clearly was a capable man, and he seemed really good to Li Bao, so how could he let his wife suffer in the future?
