Upon hearing the words from Third sister-in-law Kang, Third Brother Kang responded, "Okay."
Fourth Brother Kang and Fourth Sister-in-law Kang’s room was right next to where Third Brother Kang and his wife stayed.
"How is Li Bao’s mind wired? How come he’s so smart that there’s no comparison? He’s studying and making money abroad, and in just a few short years has earned quite a bit, and he still plans to use the money to build roads and establish a primary school back home. When this gets back home, the Old Kang’s Home will be renowned!"
As Fourth Sister-in-law Kang’s voice sounded, Fourth Brother Kang said, "Our family was already famous when Li Bao, Little Wu, and Yangyang got into college."
"True, but it’s different this time."
"What’s different about it?"
Fourth Brother Kang looked at Fourth Sister-in-law Kang in confusion.
"This time Li Bao plans to put money into it, and he’s doing great things. Our hometown folks will all benefit."
Fourth Sister-in-law Kang’s words elicited a sidelong glance from Fourth Brother Kang: "I don’t like how you put it. What’s this about ’our hometown folks all benefiting’? Li Bao spending money on road building and primary school construction,
he’s doing it with long-term thinking for the folks there. As Li Bao puts it, you need to build roads to get rich, and no matter how bitter life gets, you can’t deprive the kids, and you can’t skimp on education,
in short, my sister’s goal is simple: for the folks to live better lives, for the kids in our village to sit in spacious, bright classrooms where the wind and rain don’t penetrate, listening to teachers’ lessons."
After a brief pause, Fourth Brother Kang sighed, "To be honest, I really admire Li Bao; her vision is truly expansive!"
"Aren’t you planning to follow Li Bao’s example then?"
Fourth Sister-in-law Kang asked.
"Of course, I just need to learn from her, but right now I don’t have the ability. Once I have more money someday, I’ll learn from Li Bao in giving back to society."
Upon hearing Fourth Brother Kang’s words, Fourth Sister-in-law Kang burst into laughter: "You’re getting all literary now, talking about giving back to society, learned that from Li Bao, didn’t you?"
"You know it and still ask, can’t you give me some face?"
Rolling his eyes at Fourth Sister-in-law Kang, Fourth Brother Kang turned over, lying with his back to her.
"A big man like you, even getting bashful now, hahaha..."
Fourth Sister-in-law Kang laughed harder.
"Laugh all you want, be careful not to laugh yourself to hiccups." Fourth Brother Kang muttered, shifting his body to widen the gap between them, indicative of how uneasy Fourth Sister-in-law Kang’s laughter made him feel.
