Chapter 1427: Chapter 1239: Kang Li Knows..._5

Min Rui: ”Mom...”

Kang Li: ”Hm?”

”According to what you said, I think Guoguo calling ’old grandma’ sounds a bit strange.” As soon as Min Rui said this, Jiang Hongfa’s sudden cough rang out, and seeing the old man wink at him, Min Rui realized something was amiss, and he quickly said to Kang Li: ”Mom, you didn’t quite hear anything just now, right?”

Kang Li laughed with an ambiguous expression.

Min Rui tugged at the corner of his mouth, chuckling awkwardly: ”Actually, your dear eldest son didn’t say anything, Mom...” He even brought out the hometown dialect, the ”dear eldest son” phrase that Kang Li often uses, dragging the tone to unusually act spoiled, Kang Li, at this moment, no matter how many thoughts she had, suddenly they all vanished.

”The wind was loud just now, did your dear eldest son say anything, Mom? It seems like I didn’t hear clearly.”

Suppressing her laughter, Kang Li looked at her dear eldest son with interest.

”No, nothing, I didn’t say anything.”

Min Rui shook his head like a rattle.

Tangyuan chuckled upon seeing this.

Bun smiled slightly, eyes filled with laughter.

Even Jiang Hongfa, the old man, laughed out loud, feeling that the always steady and restrained Min Rui finally looked like a child.

”Remember what I said, do you two think Guoguo remembered?”

Kang Li said this to Bun and Tangyuan, and upon hearing it, they first paused together, then exchanged glances, and finally shook their heads in unison: ”Don’t know.”

It seems Guoguo has upset mom, and it’s related to this ”old grandma” title.

The little brothers thought this and silently wiped cold sweat for their sister Guoguo!

They are very clear that Mom usually doesn’t lose her temper, but if she gets angry with them, there will be no good fruit for them.

Tangyuan: Sister, you’re on your own, Fifth Brother can’t help you!

Bun: You’re on your own, little sister, your Fourth Brother can’t help you!

After having a harmonious lunch, Aunt Fu naturally called the hired help in the kitchen to clean the dishes, without needing Kang Li to do it herself. Thus, Kang Li was called by Luo Yanqing to the courtyard where he lived, and the two walked into the study one after the other, Jiang Boya pursed his lips as Kang Li sat down, remained silent for a while before asking: ”Do you want to know about your biological mother?”

Kang Li: ”...” How should she answer this? Truth be told, she doesn’t want to know, since in her life, that so-called biological mother, whether she appears or not, wouldn’t be kept in her heart.

—That person to her is just a stranger with some blood relation!

After a moment of silence, Kang Li began: ”If Dad wants to talk, I’ll listen; if Dad doesn’t want to say, then I don’t feel the need to know.”

Her voice calm and indifferent, not a trace of emotion could be heard.

”Your grandmother should have told you some things about your biological mother during her lifetime...”

Jiang Boya’s expression likewise showed no emotional fluctuation, he said slowly: ”Let Dad tell you now, your biological mother’s surname is Fang, her name is Fang Sumei, daughter of the housekeeper,”

”Your biological mother’s mother was her father’s legal wife, so, despite being born and raised in the Jiang Family as a maid, your biological mother actually lived a life not much different from those young ladies of small families.”

No worries about food and clothing, she didn’t seem at all like a maid, while I was in my rebellious phase, whatever your grandfather forbade, I insisted on doing.”

When I heard your grandfather and grandmother were planning to find a match for me, I was particularly unwilling. Coincidentally, your biological mother was the senior maid in my courtyard at the time,

She was pretty, at thirteen or fourteen, she liked to be around me. Her gentle speech and keen perception left a good impression on me,

So when I heard your grandparents discussing arranging a marriage for me, I resolutely listened to your biological mother’s words and chose to elope with her, thinking that once we had a child out there, there would naturally not be any marriage.”

With a slight change in expression, Jiang Boya paused shortly, then continued: ”Before eloping with your biological mother, based on the good impression I had of her, I’ve developed feelings for her, thinking even if I were with her for life, I’d want it, but both your biological mother and I knew the reality wouldn’t allow us to be together,

Yet, our affair was discovered by your grandparents, your grandfather demanded us to break our ties, but I insisted on not agreeing... Thus, we secretly ran away,”
