Wang Pan wasn’t listening to a word Kang Guoan said. She sobbed, "Are you saying I’m causing trouble?"
"Isn’t that the case?"
With lifted eyes, Kang Guoan’s gaze was calm and restrained, as he stared at Wang Pan: "You should be clear, in our family, you’re not the only daughter-in-law who can bear a son. My mother took care of you and the child for a whole month during your postpartum period, but how did you treat her?
You thought my mother was a rural person, and every mealtime during the whole month, you repeatedly reminded her to wash her hands and pay attention to personal hygiene. Thinking you’re in postpartum recovery, my mother never argued with you, nor did she allow me to say anything in front of you.
But do you realize that your words and actions were an insult to my mother?
Yes, our family indeed comes from the countryside, and my mother is a genuine rural woman, but what part of her is filthy?"
Seeing Wang Pan’s obviously guilty expression, Kang Guoan, not knowing how long he had been holding back his anger, let it all out at once: "Since you look down on rural people so much, why did you start a relationship with me back then?
Wang Pan, remember this, I am a rural child, my parents are farmers. If you despise them, it’s equivalent to despising me.
If you feel wronged marrying me, I’m ready for you to bring up a divorce anytime.
Moreover, as a city person, and particularly a North City person, can you honestly say that if you trace back three generations in your family, they weren’t farmers?"
After a slight pause, Kang Guoan intensified his tone: "Honestly speaking, I don’t know where you get the nerve to look down on others. Comparing your family and ours nowadays, do you think yours can compare to ours?"
Wang Pan’s cheeks flushed red, she lowered her head and bit her lip, unable to say a word.
Well, not unable to speak, just too ashamed to say anything.
Yet, Kang Guoan didn’t fall silent, he coldly continued: "My parents are capable people in our village, they’ve raised several of us children in their lifetime. Name anyone among us who hasn’t succeeded."
Realizing Kang Guoan was truly angry, Wang Pan stammered, "Can’t I just admit I was wrong? Do you need to say so much?"
"Saying much? If you didn’t start trouble with my sister, would I be arguing with you here?" Kang Guoan’s voice was clear and cold: "What I’ve said today isn’t just random words; you better listen carefully, otherwise, we won’t last long!"
With those words, Kang Guoan turned towards the living room, seeing Kang Li coming over with an enamel mug, he said: "No need to accommodate your Fifth Sister-in-law. If she speaks disrespectfully in front of you, just talk back."
"Big brother..."
Kang Li was a bit unsure of what to say.
