"Shaobei, where have you been? Why did you come back from outside at this time? We thought you didn't get up yet!" Kang Zhenguo looked at his son's tired face and asked him a little worriedly.
"Yeah, where have you been?" Liu Xiaoyun next to him also looked puzzled, and the whole family was staring at him.
"Shaobei, what's going on?" Old Master Kang also lost his patience.
Kang Shaobei looked at everyone and said with a serious face: "There was a fire in my eldest brother's house yesterday! All the furniture inside was burned!" Kang Shaobei did not tell the whole truth. He still concealed the fact that there was a charred body inside.
"Ah?" Liu Xiaoyun was the first to exclaim in surprise. Her hand holding the spoon trembled, and the spoon fell on the table with a thud. But she didn't care about the spoon. She grabbed her son's hand and asked nervously, "What about Yu Xiao?"
No matter how unhappy he was with his daughter-in-law, he never thought anything bad would happen to her. Everything in the house was burned, so did that person get into trouble too
As soon as Kang Shaobei finished speaking, the whole family stared at him and asked nervously, and almost all the questions were raised at the same time. Kang Shaobei smiled a little: "Don't worry, sister-in-law is fine, because she ran to my brother's army alone two days ago. When I called my brother just now, she was still asleep."
After listening to Kang Shaobei's words, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Kang Shaoxi covered her chest and complained to her second brother: "Second brother, can you get to the point first when you speak next time? You almost scared me to death!" She was a little narrow-minded, but she never thought that anything serious would happen to Yu Xiao.
"Yes! My heart is so broken! Fortunately, it's okay! I'm glad that Xiaoxiao is okay! I'm glad that she is okay!" Liu Xiaoyun also breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the spoon that fell on the table again.
"I'm glad Xiaoxiao is okay! The house burned down, so I can just buy a new one later!" When Mr. Kang heard that his grandson's wife was safe, he smiled. He is an old soldier who has experienced too many life and death situations, and he can better understand the happiness of surviving a disaster.
As long as everyone is safe, there is hope!
But even if Yu Xiao was safe, the Kang family still had lingering fears about this incident. Especially Liu Xiaoyun, thinking about what she had done before, she always felt a little uneasy. As soon as she finished breakfast, she went back to her room upstairs. Kang Shaoxi seemed to see what was on his mother's mind, so he followed her upstairs and entered her mother's bedroom.
"Mom, how could this happen? When I heard what my second brother said just now, I was so scared that my heart almost jumped out!" Kang Shaoxi patted his chest, not yet completely recovered from the shock.
"Yes! Mom was scared to death. What if Yu Xiao was in there? What if something happened..." Liu Xiaoyun didn't dare to think further.
"But that little girl Yu Xiao is really lucky. But then again, didn't she go to Big Brother's army for two days? Why did the fire break out? It seems that she may not have unplugged the power cord when she left."
"Oh, right! Didn't you say before that you had hired someone to take all the things inside away? Could it be that those people moved the things away and were afraid of leaving any clues, so they burned it?" Liu Xiaoyun thought of what she had discussed with her daughter before, and her heart was startled.
"Ah? No way?" Kang Shaoxi opened his mouth in surprise, with his hand on his lips for a long time, unable to recover.
"No! I have to go to the scene myself to check it out! Your second brother just said that he had called the police, so there must be police here now. Let's go now! Go back to your room and change your clothes!" Liu Xiaoyun was afraid of any accidents, so she stood up and sent her daughter back to the room, and then she went to the closet to get clothes to change.
Liu Xiaoyun and her daughter Kang Shaoxi went to Kang Shaonan's neighborhood. When they arrived at the scene, they found out that someone had burned to death in the house. No one knew whether it was a man or a woman, or what their surname was. When the two heard this, they turned pale with fear. Kang Shaoxi held her mother's hand tightly, and her knuckles turned white. The two did not dare to stay at the scene for another second, and took the car back to the Kang family villa.
"Mom! How could someone be burned to death in there?" Kang Shaoxi followed her mother back to the room. As soon as she closed the door, she walked around the room nervously. She had just graduated from college and this was the first time she had encountered such a thing, so she was naturally very scared.
Liu Xiaoyun had recovered a little bit of her energy by now. She sat on the sofa, frowned and thought for a while, then motioned for her daughter to sit next to her.
"I guess the person who burned to death in the house is most likely the one you are looking for! He originally wanted to take all the things away, but accidentally started a fire. He didn't have time to escape and was burned to death in the house. If it is really that person, it is not a bad thing for us!" At this time, she could only try to think positively.
"Mom, what do you mean?" Kang Shaoxi didn't understand what his mother meant.
"Think about it. Our Kang family is so rich. If that man did that for us and is still alive, he will definitely come to blackmail us in the future! If his appetite is too big, we will be exposed sooner or later. Now that he is dead, we are safe. And Yu Xiao will have nowhere to go in the future. She can't live in her parents' home forever, don't you think?"
"Mom! You are so right! Why didn't I think of this?" Kang Shaoxi's eyes lit up when he heard his mother's words, and his mood suddenly became much more relaxed.
"Don't mention this to anyone anymore. Also, don't use your phone number from today on! Get a new one right away, so the police don't find out about us!"
"Well, Mom, you are still thoughtful!" Kang Shaoxi nodded obediently.
When Yu Xiao woke up, it was already daybreak. After a night's sleep, she didn't know that her and Kang Shaonan's home had already been burned to ashes. There was no trace of Kang Shaonan around her, but Yu Xiao didn't mind, because he was not by her side when she woke up every day. When she went to the bathroom to wash up, she found that there was no trace of Kang Shaonan in the living room, but breakfast was already prepared and placed on the dining table, covered with plates.
Yu Xiao stretched first, then ran to the bathroom to wash up, and then sat down at the dining table to eat. As soon as she sat down, she saw a note under the plate, which was left for her by Kang Shaonan.
Wife, my husband has to go to the military district for a meeting today. I have prepared breakfast and you can eat it when you wake up. I will wash the dishes when I come back. You can go and play with Captain Li’s family! I will be back early in the afternoon. Kiss you! The last signature is: Husband Kang Shaonan.
Yu Xiao smiled, put the note in his pocket and started eating breakfast.
Kang Shaonan was afraid that Yu Xiao would be bored at home alone, so before he left, he greeted the families of the battalion commanders and company commanders, asking them to take good care of his young wife. So just after Yu Xiao finished breakfast, there was a knock on the door. When she opened it, she saw that it was the same sisters-in-law from yesterday, who warmly invited her to play mahjong with them again.
Yu Xiao had originally planned to go to the mountains to dig shepherd's purse today and come back to learn how to make shepherd's purse dumplings, but the arrival of these sisters-in-law completely disrupted her plan. The few family members had lived here for more than a year, so they were familiar with each other and were absolutely enthusiastic. Yu Xiao couldn't resist their enthusiasm and followed them to another company commander's house to play cards.
The day passed quickly, and when Kang Shaonan came back, it was already evening. Because he called in advance, Yu Xiao was kept by the enthusiastic sisters-in-law for dinner before being sent home. When Kang Shaonan returned home, it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. Because he met a few old comrades after the meeting today, they got together for a meal. It has been several years since they last saw each other. When they were on missions together before, they had experienced life and death together, so their feelings naturally deepened a lot. Before the meal started, they drank wine first. Kang Shaonan's alcohol tolerance was not small, but when he was happy, he couldn't help but drink a few more glasses.
When he went upstairs, he was a little shaky, but fortunately the driver followed him and helped him open the door. Yu Xiaoyi frowned unconsciously when she smelled the pungent smell of alcohol, but he was her husband now, she couldn't do nothing, so she and the driver Xiao Zhang carried him to the bed and Xiao Zhang left.
Yu Xiao helped him take off his shoes and socks, and then took off his shirt. As soon as her little hand reached his chest, he pulled her into his arms. He was very strong, and even stronger after drinking. Her little body hit his chest, and the smell of alcohol on his breath instantly made her frown.
"Kang Shaonan, you stink! You reek of alcohol!" She slapped her little hands on his chest and tried to stand up with her arms, but his arms were like iron clamps and she couldn't move at all in his arms.
"Wife..." Although he drank a little too much, he was still conscious. He raised his hand to lift the hair that fell on her forehead and put it behind her ear. He clasped the back of her head and brought it to his mouth and kissed her.
"Kang Shaonan, you stink!" I had been kissed by him countless times, but this time was the worst.
The pungent smell of alcohol hit her in the face, filling her nostrils, and went into her stomach with her breath as soon as she took a breath. Her brows furrowed even deeper.
She really doesn't like his taste!
"Honey, has my period ended yet?" From the time they got married till now, his benefits have not been fulfilled, and he feels depressed no matter how he thinks about it.
"Not leaving!" Knowing what he was thinking, her face turned red and she just gave him two words.
"No way? Doesn't the period just pass in a few days? Why is yours so long?" He was not angry. He stroked her little face with his big hands. She pressed on him, and the two soft lumps on her chest pressed against his body. He liked this feeling very much.
"Who said a few days? It'll take a week!" Actually, she had already given up yesterday, but she was still timid when she thought about what would happen if she told the truth. (To be continued)
