<strong>Chapter 266: Chapter 266: What’s So Good About a Second Marriage Leader?</strong>
“It feels sofortable to touch; Li Bao really put thought into it!”
Elder sister-inw Kang’s eyes and brow were all smiles as she touched the cotton socks in her hand and then the bright red cashmere scarf that her sister-inw, Kang Li, had bought for her. She felt truly d to have treated her sister-inw so well.
“Mom, Elder sister-inw is right; Li Bao really cares about us sister-inws!”
Third sister-inw Kang agreed.
Hearing this, Cai Xiufen nced at her two daughters-inw, “Is there anyone in our family that Li Bao doesn’t care for?”
Her daughter was not only beautiful but also kind-hearted, always sending things home, making sure everyone, big and small, was included. So she and the old man wouldn’t have a hard time.
Although this made her as a mother feel relieved, she also felt pity for her daughter Li Bao, who had to spend quite a sum of money every time she sent things home.
“Mom! Mom, the socks that little aunt sent—do they have my size?”
Kang Yifei’s eyes sparkled as he approached Third sister-inw Kang, reaching out to touch the cotton socks held in his mother’s hand.
“Don’t touch; be careful not to dirty them. We’ll take them out to wear after the New Year.”
Third sister-inw Kang dodged her son’s little hands and walked toward the room where their family of three lived.
“Are my hands that dirty?”
Looking at his hands, Kang Yifei was confused.
“Yangyang, take this candy and give two pieces to each of your brothers.”
Cai Xiufen took out a pack of White Rabbit Creamy Candy from the box and called her eldest grandson, Kang Yiyang, over to her.
“Okay, thank you, grandma!”
Kang Yiyang grinned, showing off his big white teeth.

“I heard Li Bao sent more stuff back home again; is that really true?”
It had been around noon when Captain Kang picked up the parcel from the post office. Riding into the vige, it was unavoidable for people to notice. And now, led by Cui the Loudspeaker, a few women gathered around with their bowls of rice, eating and starting to gossip.
And the first to speak was none other than Cui the Loudspeaker.
Wang Chunhua casually answered, “I mean, The Loudspeaker, could you have heard about it if it wasn’t true?”
“Who are you calling The Loudspeaker? I’m telling you, Aunt Wang, I sure like to gossip, but you and Li Daniu are just the same, aren’t we all like crows on the wallughing at the pig for being ck? Let’s not judge each other, shall we?”
Whoever it was that damnedly gave her the nickname “The Loudspeaker”, making it seem like she couldn’t keep anything to herself, broadcasting everything wherever she went.
“You talk about your stuff; why drag me into it all of a sudden?”
Li Daniu felt ufortable inside, but her face didn’t show much of it.
Cui the Loudspeaker: “What do you mean dragging you into it? We’re just having a casual chat here; nothing serious. Xu family, wouldn’t you agree?”
Referred to by Cui the Loudspeaker as “Xu family,” it was Xu Chunxia’s mother who sourlymented, “What’s there to talk about Captain Kang’s family affairs? It’s just about marrying off their daughter to some twice-married guy with a bit of spare cash.”
“Xu family, if you didn’t talk so sourly, I might have believed even the first part of your statement,”
Cui the Loudspeaker curled her lips, and then asked Mrs. Xu, “By the way, haven’t you been looking for a match for Chunxia for thest couple of months? Have you had any results?”
“Matching is all about fate; perhaps Chunxia’s fate hasn’t arrived yet, but we should have some clues before the year is out.”
Mrs. Xu had a rather sharp and critical look which might be why she wasn’t very well-liked around Aoli Vige. However, since everyone was from the same ce, even if people weren’t fond of her, they still managed to maintain a polite facade.
Cui the Loudspeaker: “You’re not nning to find a son-inw for Chunxia like Captain Kang’s, are you?”
“What’s so good about a man who’s been married twice?
