Wang Pan’s cheeks flushed red. She lowered her head, biting her lip, unable to say a word.
Well, it’s not that she can’t speak, but rather she’s too embarrassed to say anything.
However, Kang Guoan didn’t stop there. He continued coldly, "My parents are capable people in our village. They’ve raised us children. You tell me, which one of us has no prospects?"
Realizing that Kang Guoan was genuinely angry, Wang Pan mumbled, "I was wrong, okay?! Do you really need to say so much?"
"I’m saying too much? If you didn’t pick on my sister, would I be here arguing with you?" Kang Guoan’s voice was clear and cold, "What I’m telling you today isn’t just for the sake of it. You’d better listen, otherwise, our days together definitely won’t last long!"
With that, Kang Guoan turned and headed toward the guest room. Seeing Kang Li holding an enamel mug coming his way, he said, "No need to put up with your fifth sister-in-law. If she speaks rudely in front of you, feel free to talk back to her."
"Brother..."
Kang Li felt a bit at a loss for words.
"Listen to your brother."
Taking the enamel mug from Kang Li’s hands, Kang Guoan looked at Wang Pan, "Li Bao made you some brown sugar water. If you’re not coming to get it, do you expect me to feed it to you?"
Regarding this wife, he couldn’t say he was too disappointed, but after just a year of marriage, he started to feel somewhat displeased.
Things were fine when they were dating, but once they got married, all sorts of flaws were exposed.
Being simple-minded is one thing, but can’t she stop equating ignorance with simplicity? Throwing inexplicable little tantrums, needing to be coaxed every time—after a while, doesn’t she feel any shame?
Kang Guoan sighed inwardly, thinking to himself more than once: It’s entirely my fault for not seeing her true character when we first started dating.
I thought she was simple and kind, a good-natured girl to get along with. Who knew that marriage would reveal everything.
"I’m not thirsty."
Seeing the enamel mug in Kang Guoan’s hand, noticing its chipped edge, Wang Pan felt a bit repulsed and declined with an excuse.
After staring at her for a moment, Kang Guoan withdrew his gaze and told Kang Li, "I’ll drink this brown sugar water."
"Be careful, it’s hot."
Kang Li smiled. Seeing Kang Guoan nod and then carry the enamel mug into the guest room, she turned her gaze to Wang Pan, "So, what’s your issue with me?"
She never tolerated unreasonable behavior, even if the person in front of her was her sister-in-law.
"What do you want me to say?"
Wang Pan met Kang Li’s gaze, her expression full of defiance.
"You don’t know?" Kang Li quietly observed Wang Pan, but it was precisely this calm and peaceful gaze that made Wang Pan feel exposed.
With a curl of her lips, Kang Li said, "Didn’t know you were picking on me?"
Wang Pan’s face burned, and she averted her eyes from Kang Li’s gaze.
"I was just showing concern, yet you had to think the wrong way. Wang Pan, if you feel I’m beneath you, then just stop having anything to do with me.
Also, my parents are elders. If you have issues with them, feel free to talk to my brother. I believe my brother will address them, but if you show disrespect to my parents and give them the cold shoulder, don’t blame me for being impolite."
At this point, Kang Li was silent for a while before continuing, "Now let me remind you how you and my brother got together. Initially, you showed interest in my brother, frequently writing letters to him and seeking him out. Eventually, my brother was moved by you and confirmed a relationship.
After graduation, you and my brother got married, indicating you had decided on him. It wasn’t my brother who begged or forced you into marriage.
So, I don’t wish for you to act superior in front of my brother or my family!
Marriage is not only about two individuals but also between two families. As a sister, I naturally hope for my brother’s marriage to be happy and for our Kang Family to remain harmonious,
