Chapter 61: Chapter 61 - 61 61 I Wont

Chapter 61: Chapter 61 I Won’t Chapter 61: Chapter 61 I Won’t “I want to call her mom, not stepmom, and Big Brother and Second Brother can’t call her stepmom either!”

Xiao Ming Wei suddenly became bossy and powerful, puffing her cheeks, she stared firmly at her brothers, Min Rui and Ming Han.

“Don’t worry, I like mom and promise not to call her that way!”

Xiao Ming Han stood up and chested out as he made the promise.

“Big Brother?”

Having not heard Big Brother Min Rui speak for a while, Xiao Ming Wei got a bit anxious. She slowly slid down from Kang Li’s lap, and sensing that the little girl intended to get down, Kang Li carefully watched over her movements.

“Big Brother, why aren’t you saying anything? Don’t you like mom, do you want to call her stepmom?”

Standing in front of her brother Min Rui, Xiao Ming Wei tilted her head and unhappily said, “You can’t do that, Big Brother, you can’t call mom stepmom, or else… or else I won’t talk to you anymore!”

Kang Li’s eyes were gentle, and a smile lingered on her lips. She did not join in the conversation between the siblings, just quietly watched the little ones interact.

Feeling his sister’s stern gaze, Min Rui’s mouth twitched, and he said, “I won’t.”

Xiao Ming Wei asked, “Big Brother won’t do what?”

Xiao Ming Han: “Sister is silly, Big Brother said he won’t call mom stepmom!”

Not fully believing her second brother, Xiao Ming Wei confirmed with Min Rui, “Is that right, Big Brother?”

“Mm.”

Min Rui nodded.

Kang Li laughed, she clapped her hands lightly, “Alright, sit nicely in the living room and read your comics while mom tidies up the house for us.”

“Okay, Mom.”

The twins responded in unison.

Min Rui: “Okay.”

Standing up, Kang Li returned to the master bedroom and summoned System Dwen Dwen online.

“Is there anything you need, Miss?”

Seeing the happiness points from the twins rising steadily, Dwen Dwen couldn’t be happier. As soon as he sensed Kang Li’s call, he immediately appeared in her mind.

Kang Li: “I need curtains, bed sheets, duvet covers, pillowcases, enamel basins, glass cups… Just use points to exchange for them, and if the points aren’t enough, we’ll owe them for now.”

Dwen Dwen: “No problem.”

Kang Li: “You decide on the specifications.”

Dwen Dwen: “Got it.”

After giving instructions to System Dwen Dwen, Kang Li went outside to fetch a basin of water and wiped down the furniture in each room. She also thoroughly organized Luo Yanqing’s study. By the time she had finished everything inside and out, it was already four in the afternoon.

Just then, voices were heard from the yard gate, followed by the gate being pushed open. Captain Kang, Big Brother Kang, and Kang Guoan walked into the yard one after another.

“Dad, Big Brother, Little Brother, you’re back?! Did things go smoothly?”

Kang Li poured a cup of cooled malt extract for each of the three men at the small dining table and sat down on a nearby small armchair.

“With Comrade He leading, your little brother’s employment process went very smoothly,” said Captain Kang as he took a sip from the water glass in front of him, then paused and asked Kang Li, “Why did you make malt extract?”

Kang Li: “I made it half an hour ago, thinking you’d be thirsty when you got back.”

“Malt extract is expensive, and since Ruirui and the others are growing, it’s best for them to drink it. Give dad a cup of plain water instead.”

Putting down his cup on the table, Captain Kang looked at Kang Li displeasedly.

“Ruirui and the others are already drinking it, and besides, no matter how expensive malt extract is, it’s meant to be drunk. You are my dad, and it’s alright for me to make a cup for my own dad and brothers,” she said as she handed the water cup back to Captain Kang.

Kang Li smiled and continued, “I’ve got it all planned out. From now on, even though I’ll be at home taking care of the kids, I can write some articles and send them to the newspapers to earn some fees. That way, I can also have some income of my own.”
