Reborn as a Weak Beauty Pampered by All

Chapter 422: Chapter 422: No Ability Oneself

After Kang Li entered the yard, Mrs. Qi helped to pull the gate shut firmly, which prevented the onlookers from seeing what was happening inside. They only knew that the pig-like screams of agony had come from Kang Li’s home.

At this moment, Kang Li’s voice was low, and Wang Guilan didn’t speak loudly either. So, those outside couldn’t hear anything.

”Abandoning your young son, that’s your original sin. If I were you, I’d never show my face to that child again for the rest of my life, lest your son asks you, ’Mom, why didn’t you want me back then...’”

Kang Li’s gaze didn’t hold a trace of warmth, and her voice was just as icy. She said, ”Luo Yanqing was abandoned by you and lived with his grandparents for two years. Who knew that both old people would pass away from illness one after another? He should have had his uncle, yet he ended up at the welfare institution.

But his uncle, seeing no benefits to be gained, sent his eight-year-old nephew to the welfare institution. Comrade Wang Guilan, are you listening? This is the sin you’ve committed! Not only did you deny Luo Yanqing a mother’s love from a young age, but you also made him lose any hope in family and kinship, turning him cold towards everyone! Now, do you still want to see Luo Yanqing? Do you still want to take advantage of him?”

”...I am his mother!”

Bowing her head in silence for a while, Wang Guilan looked up at Kang Li with a mix of shame and embarrassment. She said, ”If it weren’t for really not being able to make ends meet, I wouldn’t have thought to find Yanqing... My man is dead, and out of six sons at home, only one has married a wife...”

”Don’t talk to me about that.”

Kang Li scoffed, ”My words remain the same, if you were able to give birth to them one after another, you should be able to bear the responsibility for your sons’ problems.” After a brief pause, Kang Li asked, ”Tell me how you found your way here. I want the truth; otherwise...”

She carelessly waved the stick in her hand, frightening Meng Xingwang and his brother, Meng Xingping, who both shivered. Then, Xingping, the weaker of the two, hurriedly said:

”A letter, we received a letter at home sent from North City. It contained the exact address of this compound, stating that if we just found this place, we would be able to see my eldest brother... no, that we would meet Comrade Luo!”

As soon as the words were out, Meng Xingping, afraid of being greeted by the stick again, fished out the letter from his pocket and tremblingly handed it to Kang Li: ”Here... for you... ”

”You’re grown men and can’t find wives, which proves you guys lack ability!”

Since Meng Xingping couldn’t immediately get up from the ground, Kang Li had to bend down to receive the letter. Standing up straight again, she said to Meng Xingping and Meng Xingwang:

”In the countryside, as long as you’re strong, diligent, and can earn work points, I don’t believe there’s no girl who would fancy the two of you... Besides, marrying a wife in the countryside doesn’t cost much. Work hard, if you can’t save enough this year, keep saving the next, eventually, you’ll have enough to bring a wife home. But what have you done? The beam is crooked, and the rafters are askew; all of you are lazybones, not willing to work for points. No wonder no girl would fancy you!”

Glancing at the handwriting on the envelope, Kang Li turned her attention back to Wang Guilan. However, before she could say anything, Mrs. Qi’s voice came from outside the gate: ”Li Bao, the public security officers are here.”

”I don’t want to be taken away by the public security officers... Mom, please say something. I don’t want to be taken away!”

Meng Xingping crawled to his mother’s side, his face showing a mournful expression as he spoke:
