Cease fretting over unforeseen future events and losing precious sleep.
Her focus realigned, Elder sister-in-law Kang redirected the conversation back to Kang Li: "Do you truly believe Li Bao will remain abroad for three full years?"
"Li Bao never stated he wouldn't return. However, his pursuit of that degree overseas spans three years. With Bun and the others still so young, returning home frequently would be inconvenient and unproductive."
"Your reasoning is sound, but in that scenario, won't Ruirui and the little ones be unable to see Li Bao for three years?"
"Why torment yourself with unnecessary worry! Li Bao contacts Ruirui and the others nearly every week. He even mentioned previously that he'd arrange for them to visit him abroad during their summer vacations, ensuring no distance grows between them."
"Alright, alright, I suppose I am worrying needlessly. When might our parents return? Could they possibly be relocating there permanently?"
"This age-old saying about women possessing long hair but limited foresight certainly holds true. Just ponder it: what conceivable reason would our parents have to remain abroad for over two years?"
"..."
Elder sister-in-law Kang found herself at a loss for words, as such matters remained beyond her comprehension.
"Li Bao is abroad for advanced studies and can extend his stay for three years. However, our parents are visiting relatives, and Yanqing is participating in a group tour for study. Both have defined timeframes," explained Big Brother Kang. He paused briefly before continuing, "Barring any unforeseen circumstances, our parents should return within the next month, accompanying Yanqing."
Elder sister-in-law Kang: "I hardly have a grasp on what life is like abroad."
Big Brother Kang: "Did you not see the photographs Li Bao dispatched back?"
Elder sister-in-law Kang: "I did, but one can only perceive such a limited scope through photographs."
"If you aspire to visit foreign lands, perhaps wait until your own son achieves something significant, and then see if they'll permit you a glimpse. As for Li Bao accompanying you, that seems unlikely."
"The manner in which you phrase it makes it sound as though I would pester Li Bao to take me abroad! I am merely a little curious, nothing more. Furthermore, even if foreigners are ubiquitous, it doesn't necessarily equate to an inherently superior existence."
"Very well, let us retire for the night. I am utterly exhausted, struggling to keep my eyes open."
With a yawn, Big Brother Kang closed his eyes and swiftly succumbed to a profound slumber.
...
Abroad.
The Jiang family estate.
"Brother-in-law," Allen frequented the Jiang family estate, visiting almost every other day since Kang Li emerged from her confinement. He was quite attentive to her, often engaging in play with Bun and the other two children.
Aware that Kang Li attended classes during the day and had other commitments, Allen typically arrived in the late afternoon.
Jiang Hongfa and Jiang Boya found his regular visits quite agreeable, considering Allen was, after all, a descendant of the Jiang lineage. While they hadn't formally declared it, they had implicitly accepted him into their hearts.
Consequently, Allen was free to visit at his convenience, with neither of them voicing any objections.
In stark contrast, Luo Yanqing harbored no fondness for Allen's presence, perceiving him as an unwelcome interloper. He felt Allen was overly attached, constantly vying for Kang Li's attention, clinging to his beloved girl, and wishing he could simply banish Allen from Kang Li's vicinity.
To put it plainly, she was assigning blame elsewhere for her current predicament, failing to acknowledge her own shortcomings.
Truly a sorrowful, pitiable, and regrettable situation!
Outside, the night was tranquil, moonlight cascading like liquid silver. Separated by a wall, the original chamber of Cai Xiufen and Captain Kang was now occupied by Elder sister-in-law Kang and Big Brother Kang. At this moment, Elder sister-in-law Kang turned, positioning herself on her side to face Big Brother Kang, and said:
"Isn't Li Bao truly remarkable? After years of being diagnosed with congenital weakness and deemed unlikely to conceive, she is now pregnant with triplets and delivered them without issue – such immense blessings!"
Big Brother Kang chuckled and responded: "Indeed, Li Bao is exceptionally fortunate. I distinctly recall when our parents brought Little Wu and Li Bao back from the clinic. We were all overjoyed upon seeing him,
eager to bestow our most cherished possessions upon Li Bao, clamoring to hold him, believing we could absorb his good fortune. Because of this, our parents frequently cast warning glances our way, cautioning that any attempt to startle him would result in severe family reprimand!"
Upon hearing Big Brother Kang's narrative, Elder sister-in-law Kang couldn't suppress a laugh: "You and Second Brother were quite the rascals back then. You were considerably older than Li Bao and Little Wu at the time."
"It was nothing significant; we had always yearned for a younger sister. Moreover, on the very day our mother brought Li Bao home, despite his diminutive size, he genuinely resembled a glutinous rice ball – fair-skinned and utterly adorable."
Recalling the initial sight of the infant sister nestled within her swaddling clothes, Big Brother Kang felt a profound warmth spread through him, his voice softening into a tender cadence.
"You all clamored to hold Li Bao, but did you give any thought to Fifth Brother's feelings?"
