Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All Chapter 1727 - 1315: Didn’t Get a Good Deal_2

Cai Xiufen spoke, her eyes slowly growing wet at the corners. She wiped them casually: "Alright, let’s not talk about those old stories anymore. It’s getting late, you two should head over and get things sorted out—so they can get ready in advance."

No doubt, by "over there" Cai Xiufen meant Big Uncle Kang’s house.

"Mom, if the dead really know things underground, then Grandma and Grandpa would be so happy to know you had their graves redone, and that every time you come back home, you pay respects at their grave. They’d be really glad."

About Grandma and Grandpa from the Cai Family, the original owner left Kang Li with almost no memories.

Back then, the original owner was only five years old. There were disasters sweeping the country—rural folk went hungry, but even city folks weren’t much better off.

With that in mind, it wasn’t hard for Kang Li to understand what Cai Xiufen was saying—her late grandma and grandpa went without food just to save a little bit more for their kids.

And things like that, Kang Li knew, happened in lots of places without even needing to think about it.

"You really know how to talk."

Cai Xiufen felt a little better after hearing Kang Li’s words.

"I’m not just making things up."

Kang Li smiled, but deep down she knew—that was all just to comfort her mom.

Because when people die, it’s all over, and the living have to keep going. In times like these, a little comfort from the ones around you—it’s needed, at least Kang Li thought so.

But truthfully, Kang Li believed: real filial piety means being good to folks while they’re alive!

Of course, her mom and her grandma and grandpa had a special case.

...

Big Uncle Kang’s House.

"Li Bao, are you sure you want to take your grandparents to North City?"

Big Uncle Kang asked Kang Li, but his eyes went to Captain Kang. When Captain Kang nodded, Big Uncle Kang said, "Is this really okay? You’ve got work, so many kids at home—will your grandparents be alright living with you?"

"Uncle, don’t worry. My kids don’t need looking after—Ruirui, Hanhan, and Vivi all go to and from school on their own. I just drop Bun and the little ones at kindergarten. And with my parents there too, not a bit of it will mess with my work."

No smile in Kang Li’s eyes, she spoke gently: "Plus, my place is nice and roomy, lots of bedrooms, for sure my grandparents will be comfortable and have fun. When the National Day holidays come around, if they don’t want to stay in North City, I’ll drive them and my parents back home."

"You and your wife coming home during National Day?"

Big Uncle Kang asked Captain Kang.

"Yeah."

Captain Kang nodded.

"Uncle, next time, I’ll take you and Aunt to North City too. We’ll all have a good time."

Hearing Kang Li say this, Big Uncle Kang waved his hand, smiling: "No need, no need. Uncle and Aunt won’t give you extra trouble."

Kang Li: "What trouble would you bring? If I said I’ll do it, I will."

"Closing my eyes in this life and getting a chance to stroll through North City—Aunt feels she hasn’t lived in vain."

Sun Fengzhu said, cheerful as always. Kang Li replied, "Aunt, your wish is way too small. Wait and see—I’ll take you and Uncle to North City for sure, and if we get the chance, I’ll take you, my parents, and my other uncle and aunt overseas for a trip."

Kang Li wasn’t just bragging. If the kids were settled, she could book a whole plane and fly the whole Kang Family’s elders abroad for a vacation.

Sun Fengzhu: "Our Li Bao is so filial, not like your brother Guozhu and the others—just know how to give me and Uncle a headache."

"Mom, don’t blame me. When did I ever upset you?"

Kang Guozhu grumbled in his thick voice.

"If I say you did, then you did. What, you want to argue with me?"

Sun Fengzhu glared at her eldest son. Immediately, Kang Guozhu changed his tune: "Whatever Mom says is right. It’s my fault—not as thoughtful as Li Bao, not as filial either!"

"Glad you know!"

She shot her eldest son a look, then Sun Fengzhu held Kang Li’s hand and told Grandpa Kang and Grandma Kang: "Dad, Mom, Li Bao’s got a good heart. And now his second uncle has come, and together they want you to go visit North City. You should just go with them. I’ll pack you a couple of changes of clothes, put them in Li Bao’s car first thing in the morning."

"Your dad and I, we’re too old now—can’t handle all that. We’re better off at home, not causing trouble for Li Bao with a long trip. Wouldn’t want to mess up her work, that’d be a sin."

Grandma Kang shook her head.

"Your mom’s right, we’re both in our seventies and eighties, staying home is best."

Grandpa Kang agreed.

"Grandpa, Grandma, I drive real steady, and besides, it’s all big roads the whole way. No way you’ll be bumped around."
