Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All Chapter 1308 - 1209-2

Reflecting on the very first moment he laid eyes on the infant cradled in arms, Big Brother Kang felt an overwhelming warmth surge within him, his voice naturally softening.

"You all are preoccupied with cradling Li Bao, gazing at Li Bao, but have any of you considered Little Wu's feelings?" Elder sister-in-law Kang inquired with a gentle smile.

"He's merely an infant; what feelings could he possibly possess? Moreover, can he even be compared to Li Bao? They both emerged from our mother, yet he isn't as fair or as pleasing to the eye as Li Bao. All wrinkled, he genuinely resembled a tiny old man. At a glance, I truly believed he was quite a sight." Big Brother Kang's words carried an unconscious tone of disdain.

Upon hearing this, Elder sister-in-law Kang erupted into laughter once more. "What's so unsightly about Little Wu? He's tall and handsome; among your brothers, he might very well be the most attractive."

"You're speaking of him now, as an adult. But when he was first born, he was undeniably difficult to look at," Big Brother Kang persisted in his dismissive remarks about his younger brother, Kang Guoan.

Elder sister-in-law Kang probed, "Would you dare utter such words directly to Little Wu?"

"I could, but I ought not to. After all, Little Wu is already a grown man with a partner. I must offer him a degree of respect, wouldn't you agree?"

Within their family, whether it was himself or the four brothers who followed, they all bore a striking resemblance to their father. And their father, even in his youth, was hailed as the most handsome lad in all the surrounding villages. Even now, despite the passage of years, he remained the most dapper among his contemporaries.

"I truly believe our family's feng shui must be exceptional; otherwise, how could every single member of our family, regardless of age, be so blessed with good looks! Furthermore, our lineage is quite peculiar; we've exclusively had sons, never a single daughter. Speaking of which, I do harbor a touch of regret." After bringing forth three sons, Elder sister-in-law Kang found herself daydreaming daily about having a daughter, only for the fourth child to also be a son, which left her profoundly disappointed at the time.

"I haven't had the chance to visit our little granddaughter in quite some time. You should make an effort to see our in-laws soon. And while you're there, perhaps pick up some snacks for our granddaughter to bring along."

"Tomorrow. I'll conclude my work at the shop a little earlier tomorrow afternoon."

"Don't dwell on it excessively. Since Third Brother's wife has already joined our family and is living harmoniously with Third Brother, we shouldn't allow these thoughts to consume us, lest they inadvertently influence the children."

Following Big Brother Kang's counsel, Elder sister-in-law Kang fell into a moment of silence before responding, "Even if I feel a certain unease, what can be done? It was Third Brother who lacked drive and insisted on marrying her; the fault cannot be placed upon Yan Rou. But… whenever I consider that Ranran and Yinyin are not Third Brother’s biological children, my heart grows restless. Especially when I imagine the children discovering their true lineage upon growing up and perhaps becoming ungrateful. At that juncture, wouldn't Third Brother have raised them in vain?!"

"The children are merely one year old; can't you entertain a more optimistic outlook?" Big Brother Kang remarked, though a flicker of unease stirred within him.

After all, the fact that they were not his biological offspring meant that once their true lineage came to light, who could guarantee they wouldn't overthink the situation or feel compelled to seek out their biological father? If their biological father were to sow seeds of discord, they might develop resentment towards Third Brother, believing he was the catalyst for their family's fragmentation.

"It's not that I'm unwilling to be optimistic," Elder sister-in-law Kang retorted, fixing Big Brother Kang with a glare. "Do not forget that Ranran and Yinyin's biological father hails from North City; there's always a possibility they might cross paths with him someday."

Big Brother Kang contemplated, "Even if they were to encounter him, what consequence could arise from that? Ranran and Yinyin bear a resemblance to their mother; even if they were to bump into their biological father on the street..." Suddenly, Big Brother Kang fell into silence, prompting Elder sister-in-law Kang to ask with bewilderment, "Why have you stopped speaking?"

"Ranran and Yinyin resemble Third Brother’s wife. If their biological father were to chance upon them, he would undoubtedly connect this observation to Third Brother’s wife, and subsequently, recall the children's lineage." Upon uttering these words, Big Brother Kang's brow furrowed deeply. "The situation between Third Brother and his wife is precarious and cannot withstand close scrutiny." The date on their marriage certificate had been manipulated through influential connections to appear earlier than it was. However, did Third Brother even have a relationship with his wife at that time? The villagers, being hardly naive, were certainly aware of this. Furthermore, the documented childbirth date of Third Brother's wife was indisputable. With a simple calculation, her previous partner would find it rather straightforward to deduce that the two children were indeed his offspring.

With a heavy sigh, Big Brother Kang found himself at a loss for words, his countenance etched with a troubled expression."Forget it, no need to dwell on it. Once my third brother and his wife complete their studies, I'll encourage them to have a child quickly." Since they aren't biologically related, their future well-being is a bit uncertain. It's truly best to approach this with a balanced perspective.
