"No!" Yu Xiao smiled at him, feeling extremely happy. She held his hand tightly and walked forward together. After taking two steps, she stopped again, suddenly grabbed his hand and raised it up, looking at it carefully.
"Baby, what new world have you discovered?"
"Kang Shaonan, what's wrong with your finger? When did you get injured? How come I didn't know?" Just when I clenched his hand, I felt something on his ring finger. When I picked it up, I realized there was a Band-Aid on it.
"It's nothing, I just accidentally scraped off a little skin! Let's go!" Kang Shaonan put his hand down and took her back to the car.
When they left the mall, it was almost noon. Kang Shaonan asked the driver Xiao Zhang to drive to a nearby hotel. They were leaving in the afternoon. When he thought about the fact that she would live in his own home and face such a large family in the coming days, he was somewhat worried. However, they were worried about many things that they would have to face sooner or later.
After lunch, Kang Shaonan took Yu Xiao back to Kang's house. When the two walked into the living room, everyone was there except Kang Shaobei. The two went over to say hello. Kang Shaonan asked the servants to take all the things in the car to his room upstairs, and led Yu Xiao to sit down on the sofa.
"Well, that's good! Xiaoxiao is finally back. From now on, you should treat this place as your own home, okay?" The first person to speak was Grandpa Kang. As he got older, the thing he liked to see most was that his family was growing more and more prosperous.
"Yes! With Xiaoxiao living here, Shaonan will have less worries and he can work with peace of mind." Kang Zhenguo nodded in agreement.
"That's right, I told you guys to come back on the day of your wedding, but you insisted on moving out. Look at the terrible result. Not only did the house burn down, but also..." Liu Xiaoyun also took over the conversation, but her words sounded a little uncomfortable. However, before she finished her words, she was interrupted by a cough from Mr. Kang. She glanced at her father-in-law and held back the rest of her words.
On the way here, Yu Xiao was a little nervous. After all, the burning of the house was related to her going to the army to find Kang Shaonan. Now, after hearing Liu Xiaoyun's words, she immediately looked at Liu Xiaoyun with guilt and admitted her mistake: "Mom, I'm sorry! If I hadn't gone to find Shaonan..."
Seeing Yu Xiao's guilty expression, Kang Yueting raised his hand and interrupted Yu Xiao: "Kid, this is not your fault! You can buy another house if it burns down. As long as you are okay, it is better than anything else!"
"Yes, Xiaoxiao, don't have any psychological burden. From now on, treat this place as your own home. Say whatever you want to say and do whatever you want to do. Do you understand?" Seeing Yu Xiao's guilty look, Kang Zhenguo was somewhat satisfied with his daughter-in-law.
"Xiaoxiao, I've said it before, everyone in our family is open-minded, so when I'm not at home in the future, you can go to grandpa or talk to your parents if you have any problems, okay?" Kang Shaonan took over the conversation at this time.
"Yes, I will!" Yu Xiao nodded obediently. Hearing that the Kang family was so tolerant of her, her originally uneasy heart slowly relaxed.
While the family was chatting, Kang Shaoxi sat silently on the sofa, listening quietly. She seemed relatively quiet today, and did not cause trouble for Yu Xiao.
Everyone sat and chatted for a while. Kang Shaonan took Yu Xiao upstairs first because he was in a hurry to return to the army. Before leaving, he still wanted to cheer her up. The two went upstairs and entered Kang Shaonan's bedroom. Closing the door casually, Kang Shaonan picked up Yu Xiao and walked to the bed to sit down. He put her on his lap, kissed her hard on the face first, and then pinched her little hand.
"I will be back to the army soon. Are you nervous living here?" What he was most worried about was that she would be unhappy living here. That was the last thing he wanted to see.
Yu Xiao shook her head, not wanting him to worry about her all the time: "I'm already 22 years old, not a child anymore, don't worry! Nothing will happen to me! Besides, don't we still have Grandpa, the commander, at home? Don't worry about me!"
"I've said hello to Shaobei. He passes by your company every day, so when you go to work in the future, you can take his car. This way it's safer and you don't have to worry about being late."
"Okay! Got it!" Yu Xiao nodded obediently.
"If you feel it's inconvenient, you can sign up for a driver's license. Once you get the license, your husband will buy you a car. Okay?"
"Really?" Yu Xiao's face lit up when he heard Kang Shaonan's words.
"Of course it's true! And... From now on, whether at work or at home, whenever you encounter something unhappy, you must tell your husband. Although your husband is not a superman, he can sometimes be your listener, don't you think?"
Yu Xiao nodded vigorously after hearing what he said, hugged his neck and kissed him on the face: "I remember everything you said! Don't worry, I'm not as useless as you think! If something really happens, I will definitely call you."
Kang Shaonan raised his hand and rubbed her face: "Not bad! Baby has grown up!"
"So when are you leaving?"
"If you give your husband a kiss, I'll leave!"
"Then if I don't kiss you, you can stay?" Yu Xiao looked at him and suddenly felt reluctant.
"Can't bear to leave your husband?" Kang Shaonan asked her with a smile.
"Hmm... a little bit!"
"My husband will be back next Saturday." Kang Shaonan said as he picked up his watch and looked at it. He felt that he could still spend some time with her, so he kicked off her slippers and hugged her to lie down on the bed: "It's still early, your husband will sleep with you for a while!"
Yu Xiao did not refuse. In fact, the physical intimacy of the past few days also made her begin to crave his embrace. It seemed that only when she was lying next to him did she feel that her world was safe and warm.
When Yu Xiao woke up, Kang Shaonan had already left. She was awakened by a rustling sound. She opened her eyes and saw a figure in the bedroom. After a quick look, she recognized who she was.
But what was she doing squatting in front of her handbags at this moment
"Shaoxi! Are you looking for something?" She sat up from the bed and asked, looking at Kang Shaoxi's back.
Yu Xiao's words made Kang Shaoxi stop her hand. She stood up slowly, turned around and looked at Yu Xiao with dissatisfaction and pouted: "What? You want to be the hostess less than two or three hours after entering our house? This is my eldest brother's bedroom, can't I take a look?" After that, she raised her curly hair and began to walk around the room and look around, as if to say, this is my home and I can appear wherever I like.
"I don't disagree with you coming to see me. I'm just asking casually. Don't take it to heart!" Yu Xiao knew that Kang Shaoxi was also spoiled by her family. Apart from being a little arrogant, she didn't think she was a bad girl.
Kang Shaoxi curled his lips, glanced at her, and walked back to the handbags. He took out five or six handbags and shook them at Yu Xiao: "I think these clothes are not suitable for you. It's a pity to keep them. Big brother spent a lot of money to buy them, so I'll take them."
Yu Xiao didn't expect Kang Shaoxi to be so overbearing. Those were all bought by Kang Shaonan specifically for her. When she mentioned them, she took almost half of them. But Yu Xiao didn't mind. She looked at Kang Shaoxi and nodded: "Okay! Anyway, I can't wear so many!"
The Kang family was mad at her for not even taking away a house, so what did it matter if Kang Shaoxi took away a few pieces of clothing
Kang Shaoxi walked to the door with her handbag, then stopped and looked back at her: "I heard that you are good at making coffee, right?"
"Not bad!" Yu Xiao nodded.
"Mom doesn't have any hobbies. She just likes to drink coffee. She likes black coffee the most. Today, the servant has gone back to her hometown. Mom will want to drink some when she wakes up. Can you make some?"
"Well, OK! I'll be right down!" Yu Xiao nodded, feeling somewhat happy. Although Kang Shaoxi seemed indifferent to her on the surface, she was still very happy to be able to do something for the family.
After all, I owe this family too much.
After hearing her agreement, Kang Shaoxi looked at her indifferently and returned to his room with the bags in his hand.
Yu Xiao washed up first, and after getting herself ready, she went downstairs to the kitchen. Although she couldn't cook, making coffee was not difficult for her at all. Although the Kang family's villa was large, Yu Xiao still found the kitchen smoothly. Of course, this was due to the fact that Kang Shaonan had told her the structure of each floor of the house before she came.
The kitchen was large, and Yu Xiao found the coffee pot and began to prepare it carefully. Just when she was about to finish, Kang Shaoxi's unhurried voice came from behind her: "How is it going?"
Yu Xiao turned around and saw Kang Shaoxi taking an apple and walking in while eating.
“It will be ready soon!”
"Well, not bad! I didn't expect you to be so good at making this!" Kang Shaoxi raised an eyebrow, walked over to take a look, and then walked to the kitchen door. Seeing that there was no one outside, he took a bite of the apple and walked to Yu Xiao and said kindly: "Although we are the same age, you are my sister-in-law now. It is said that the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is the most difficult to handle. Mom is a very particular person. Today is the first time you make coffee for her, so I suggest that you make it and bring it to Mom in person. She will definitely be very happy when she sees it."
"Well, okay, I'll bring it over in a moment!" Kang Shaoxi's words made Yu Xiao feel a little grateful to her. If her mother-in-law had a better impression of her because of a cup of coffee, she really had to thank Kang Shaoxi.
Kang Shaoxi didn't say anything after hearing her words. He left the kitchen while biting the apple.
Yu Xiao made the coffee, carefully placed it on a beautiful tray, and took it to Liu Xiaoyun's room on the second floor. When she was about to reach the door of the room, Kang Shaoxi came out of her bedroom and made a stop gesture to Yu Xiao.
"What's the matter?" Yu Xiao didn't understand what she was going to do, so he asked her in confusion. (To be continued)
