Outsider: The Fifth Young Master of the Kang Family

Chapter 221 Xiguan Mixed-Blood

"Hey, Fourth Uncle is back?"

On the first day of 2004, Tianxiu had lunch and was thinking about going out to play basketball on his rare day off. But when he walked to the door, he saw A-Zu carrying a basket and walking towards the Kang family. He said something and ran back to the Kang family to inform the old lady and mother, "Grandpa and grandma, Fourth Uncle is back."

"Handsome boy? You're so funny. You didn't even call before you came back?" The second sister-in-law was just preparing to make tea in the living room. When she saw A-Zu coming back, she handed him the first cup of tea.

A-Zu carefully put down the basket in his hand, took the tea and drank a sip before saying, "Thank you, second sister-in-law. Hey, why did you call back? I don't know about other families, but there is always someone at our Kang family."

"A-Zu." The mother came out excitedly and touched A-Zu's face affectionately, "You are really back? Why did you come back?"

"Mom, I miss you so much. I've been gone for two and a half months. This is the first time that my son has been away from home for so long." A Zu said sincerely. He also went to college in Guangzhou and could go home almost every week. This time, accompanying Diana to give birth was really the longest time he had been away from home.

Mazi naturally became more excited after hearing his words, but Er Lao didn't believe his nonsense and said disdainfully: "He must have had a quarrel with Diana in the United States and made Diana rush back." The others also cooperated with Er Lao and looked at A Zu with a playful look. A Zu immediately became anxious, "Hey, hey, hey, don't slander us. I really miss Mazi, not only Mazi, but also you, Er Lao, and our whole family."

"Wow, that's so disgusting." The second sister-in-law joked.

"Hey? Pretty boy, didn't you say you missed us? Why did you come back empty-handed?" Er Lao looked behind A Zu and said with a disappointed look on his face, "Where are the gifts? Nothing? And you said you missed us?"

"Of course there is. How could there not be anything?" A-Zu said with a smile. He picked up the basket he had placed on the sofa and lifted the curtain above it. "Tap, tap, tap, tap. Look what this is?"

Everyone looked inside the basket and found a child. The child had a typical mixed-race appearance, with soft hair, fair skin, and deep eyes. He looked kind and cute, and people couldn't help but want to hug him.

The mother picked up the child without hesitation, and the others could only watch and praise: "Wow, so beautiful."

"Why didn't Diana come back with you?" Zhu Wanling walked slowly and didn't have a good position, so she could only ask A Zu. Just as she finished speaking, Diana came in with two suitcases and a big bag on her back. Zhu Wanling hurried over to help.

After helping Diana put away her luggage, Zhu Wanling complained to Azu with a helpless look on her face: "Azu, you are so annoying. Diana just gave birth to a child and you asked her to carry all the luggage by herself. Aren't you afraid of tiring her?" After Zhu Wanling married Kang Qirui, although she was the youngest in the family in name, she watched Azu grow up and always treated him as her younger brother. She was used to teaching him a lesson in the past, and now she acts like an older sister when something happens.

Ah Zu didn't mind, and didn't feel that he was getting angry because of what his sister-in-law said. Instead, he smiled and said, "Hahaha, there's nothing I can do. Baby likes me more than Diana. She has to carry the luggage while I take care of Baby."

The big boss was pushed out with just some children in his arms. He came to A'zu and asked, "A'zu, you brought your wife and children back this time. You are not planning to go back to the United States? Are you going to stay here to develop in the future?" After hearing this, Kang Qirui looked at A'zu curiously, waiting for his answer.

"We hadn't planned to come back originally, but BB said he missed his grandma too much and wanted to come back to Guangzhou. So we came back." A-Zu did not give a definite answer, but used BB as an excuse to avoid the question, because he hadn't figured out what to do in the future.

"Actually, he came back because he felt it was too hard to take care of the kids," Diana said. "He came back to look for help, hahaha."

"I couldn't ask for more." Er Lao said with a smile. After the news that A Zu and Diana brought the child back to Changsheng Street spread, a group of neighbors came to Kang's house every day to see the child. Everyone was seeing a mixed-race child for the first time and was very curious. After seeing the child, they were all fascinated by the child and were reluctant to leave.

"They're exactly like them, especially the nose, which is exactly the same as mine." That day, A-Zu boasted about his child and showed him off to a group of neighbors who came to see him.

"What's so good about looking like you? It's better to look like Diana." But the neighbor didn't give him much face and immediately retorted: "It's much better to look like a foreigner. A tall and straight nose is beautiful."

A-Zu didn't mind, and continued chatting with them while holding the child. They chatted until about 12 noon before they left Kang's house. As soon as they left, the mother grabbed the child and took him back to the room. As soon as she coaxed the child to sleep, A-Zu walked in and said, "Mom, someone else is here to visit."

"Shh!" the nanny interrupted him, not letting him speak loudly. The nanny frowned and whispered, "Another visitor? He just fell asleep. Do you know that the most important thing for children is to rest? Another visitor, what do you think he is? A monkey or a panda?"

"It would be nice if he was a panda." A-Zu was originally thinking of joking, but after seeing Mazi's unhappy face, he said seriously: "Mazi, of course you don't feel curious if you see him every day. Those people have never seen a mixed-race child, so of course we have to satisfy them. Besides, he didn't come empty-handed. Who comes to visit without bringing a gift? We can't be rude to others." As he said that, he took the child away.

The mother couldn't do anything about him and could only shake her head and sigh.

A-Zu was right. Etiquette is the most important thing in Cantonese. The guests who came these days not only brought gifts, but also left a red envelope for the children when they left. A-Zu made a lot of money these days, almost enough for his monthly salary. Therefore, every time a guest came, A-Zu would greet them with a smile.

However, as the saying goes, a big forest breeds all kinds of birds. Not everyone will bring gifts to your door.

"You look so proud, your eyes are rolling. You can tell at a glance that this is a Sino-foreign joint venture product." The one who came to look after the child that day was Kou Shuiwei. He smiled at the child and said, "Where is your mommy? Hahaha."

"His mom is on a business trip, so I'll take care of the baby." A Zu said. Diana went to work as soon as she came back, but A Zu had no intention of canceling her leave. A Zu saw that Kou Shuiwei had no intention of asking for a gift, so he deliberately teased the child and said, "Baby, ask uncle for a gift."

"Gift?" Kou Shuiwei was stunned. He didn't expect A-Zu to be so direct. He said with a little embarrassment: "I wanted to buy it, but he just came back from the United States, and there is everything in the United States. It would be a waste if I bought it, and it would be bad to waste it." He was smart and thought of an excuse quickly.

"Are you kidding me?" A-Zu said in disbelief, "You are such a stingy person. My son came all the way back to Guangzhou, you should at least buy him two cans of milk powder to show your filial piety."

This is not a problem for Kou Shuiwei. "I want to buy milk powder, but I don't know what brand he should eat. You know, children can't eat random milk powder or mix them together, otherwise they will easily get diarrhea. Besides, babies who are breastfed are smarter and more lively nowadays. I have something urgent to do, so I'll leave first."

"Leaving so soon?" A-Zu wanted to struggle a bit, and invited, "Why don't you leave after dinner?" He was thinking of asking him indirectly while they were eating, and he must get something out of him.

Kang Qirui shook his head. With his understanding of Kou Shuiwei, if A Zu invited him to dinner, the only one who would suffer would be A Zu himself. "Forget it. Since Kou Shuiwei said he had something to do, then don't delay him. Fourth brother, you can see him off." Kang Qirui didn't want to save a meal, nor did he feel that Kou Shuiwei was unwelcome for not bringing a gift. He just didn't want to wait until dinner time when A Zu and Kou Shuiwei were scheming against each other, and he couldn't even eat comfortably.
