Captain Kang reassured a worried Cai Xiufen that Kang Li's recognition of her biological father would not strain their bond, citing her financial independence and loyalty to family ties like Aunt Yu. The couple bickered playfully before settling down to sleep. Kang Li chafed under her month-long postpartum confinement, protesting her mother's demand for two full months despite her swift recovery and vibrant health.

"Really, your body doesn’t feel uncomfortable anywhere?"

My dear daughter appeared so vibrant, her skin shining with a healthy glow, but Cai Xiufen couldn’t fully shake off her concerns, since Kang Li’s past weakness had burrowed deep into Cai Xiufen’s heart.

She simply dreaded that remote possibility...

"Mom, do you still see me as fragile?"

Kang Li blinked at Cai Xiufen and said: "Your quietness tells me you do. But Mom, think again. If I weren’t healthy, how could I have gotten pregnant with Bun and the rest?

How could I have given birth so safely, with everything going smoothly? Plus, looking at my condition now, do I seem ill at all?"

"Tell Mom truthfully, has your body fully recovered without any problems?"

Cai Xiufen gazed fixedly at Kang Li, her worry still evident.

"Here’s an idea: the day after tomorrow, let’s head to the hospital for a complete checkup from the doctor. The results will have you grinning widely."

Kang Li grinned mischievously as she spoke.

"Get serious!"

Cai Xiufen gave Kang Li’s arm a gentle tap.

"When was I not serious?" Kang Li pouted and replied, "You’re misunderstanding your daughter!"

"Now I see why you called Hanhan dramatic before." Cai Xiufen shook her head with a mix of amusement and helplessness, "Like right now, you’re being totally dramatic!"

Kang Li laughed heartily, "Mom, you adapt so quickly—you’ve picked up new phrases from my brother and Yangyang. It’s obvious you’ve learned plenty from Hanhan too."

Cai Xiufen: "There’s that proverb, ’Live and learn.’ Even if your mom lacks formal schooling, I’ve come across it."

Kang Li’s eyes widened: "Who dares say my mom isn’t educated? Back then, you picked up lots of words in literacy class and wise sayings from the teacher. That’s why you became the Women’s Federation Director in our village from the beginning!"

Cai Xiufen: "Enough with the flattery!"

Kang Li waved dismissively, "I’m not flattering at all, just speaking the truth." Right then, as Kang Li finished speaking, Ah Xiang knocked and entered with Ah Lan, both holding two big gift boxes: "Miss, these are the dresses Mr. Jiang got ready for you and Old Madam Kang."

"Just set them on the table."

Kang Li responded softly, then Ah Xiang added: "Old Master Kang and your husband’s suits, plus clothes for the two young masters and young miss for tomorrow, are all set. Ah Lan and I will bring them shortly for your inspection."

"Okay."

Since Kang Li began addressing Jiang Boya as Dad, Jiang Hongfa had the manor servants call Old Master Kang ‘Old Master’ and Jiang Boya ‘Master.’ Thus, Kang Li became ‘Miss’ instead of ‘Young Miss.’

Yet Jiang Boya hated ‘Master’—it sounded too old-fashioned—so he wanted servants to use ‘Mr. Jiang.’

Jiang Hongfa shot a glare.

Jiang Boya acted oblivious.

After placing the gift boxes, Ah Xiang and Ah Lan departed, soon returning with two more large ones.

They did this three times before vanishing.

"Are all these packed with fancy dresses?"

Cai Xiufen tsked, "Your dad and I have fresh outfits already—the ones you got us before. They’ve been washed once and still unworn. No need for your dad to splurge like this."

Kang Li furrowed her brow, "You say that every time! Whenever I get clothes for you and Dad..."

Cai Xiufen looked sheepish, "Fine, fine, Dad and I appreciate your devotion, but we hail from hard times. We’re not short on clothes, so how can we wear your gifts right away? People would gossip."

"That’s just envy."

Kang Li huffed softly.

Lifting the lids one after another, Kang Li held up a refined, noble cheongsam with subtle patterns and fitted it to Cai Xiufen, smiling: "Seems perfect, Mom. Try it on—let your daughter admire you." The slit reached the knee, which Kang Li liked a lot.

"No way, I can’t carry it off." Cai Xiufen refused, shaking her head and waving, "I’ll wear what you bought before tomorrow. This cheongsam isn’t for me."

"Mom, you must wear it—Mr. Jiang chose it specially. Look, he even got shoes and jewelry for tomorrow, and I bet a styling team will arrive early to glam us up and style our hair."
