Two elderly people came to pay their respects at a gravesite in the fields of Huojiabao Village.

The village chief accompanied them all the way, telling them about the living conditions of Old Huo's adopted son after he was brought to the village, and the situation of his wife and children after his death.

The old leader asked the village chief to lead them to talk to Song Yinhua.

"Jianguo's wife isn't home; she should be at the wonton shop in town," the village chief said. "The wonton shop was reopened two weeks ago."

"Why don't you take us to her house first?" the old leader's wife said gently.

The village chief then led them there.

There were two black wolfhounds guarding the yard. When they saw someone coming, they barked at the gate.

Little Flower came out of the house and saw the village chief and two unfamiliar elderly people. She said, "Village chief, are you looking for my mother? My mother is not at home, she is in town."

When the two elderly people saw Xiao Xiaohua, they thought she was Huo Jianguo's daughter. The village chief whispered, "This is Yinhua's adopted daughter. Actually, she is the daughter of Yinhua's younger sister, Song Caixing."

The old lady took a bag of candy out of her bag and asked the village chief to give it to the child. Then the two elderly people went to the wonton shop in town.

Song Yinhua's wonton shop is easy to find.

That's the one with the best business.

The restaurant was past lunchtime, but there were still quite a few customers coming to eat wontons.

The two elderly people came in and casually found a seat to sit down.

The shop hired two waitresses to run errands, while Song Yinhua cooked wontons in the kitchen.

The two elderly people ordered two bowls of wontons and asked the waiter if Song Yinhua was in the store.

The waiter looked towards the kitchen and said, "That's Sister Yinhua."

The two elderly people saw Song Yinhua busy inside through the glass. They watched her for a long time but did not disturb her.

After finishing their wontons, the two elderly people chatted for a while, then paid the bill and left.

Just as he returned to the guesthouse in town, the retired senior officer suddenly received a phone call.

He exclaimed in surprise, "Not dead? Found them? What happened?"

The old man's expression gradually changed from solemn surprise to relief, and then he laughed loudly.

"Hahaha, great! Great!"

After the call ended, his wife asked him, "What made you so happy?"

“Jianguo didn’t die. Back then, when he was on a mission at the front, his comrade was injured by a bomb, his face was blown off. They also encountered extreme weather. He took off his clothes and gave them to his comrade, which led to the misunderstanding. In that conflict, he and another young man accidentally fell into the sea and were rescued by foreign fishermen. One of them was seriously injured and unconscious, and the other lost his memory. He only regained his memory a couple of days ago. While taking care of his unconscious comrade, he immediately contacted his superiors.”

"Our grandson is still alive!" the old lady said, her eyes filled with tears.

She only discovered she was pregnant after her husband joined the army.

When her child was three years old, she received news of her husband's death. Her relatives took away her son and property and sold her to an old bachelor. She fled overnight, and when she returned, her young son had already been sold by her relatives.

There has been no further news about the child since.

After her husband returned in glory and reunited with her, they searched for decades but could not find their biological son.

This became a lifelong pain for them.

The old leader patted his wife's hand reassuringly, though he wasn't sure if Huo Jianguo was their biological grandson.

There are many people who look alike.

The phone suddenly rang again.

The old man answered the phone again, "Is that kid having some new relationship...? What? The arsonist who burned down the orchard has died suddenly? This matter must be investigated to find out the truth!"

When news of Tang Dafei's death reached the Tang family, Zhou Qiaoyun threw herself on Tang Dafei's body, which was covered with a white sheet, and wept bitterly.

Old Man Tang ordered Wang Xiaowei to lead a group of people to smash up Song Yinhua's wonton shop, claiming that Song Yinhua had cursed Tang Dafei to death.

There were customers from Songzhuang Village in the shop who advised Old Man Tang not to cause trouble. They said that his grandson framed someone and burned down someone's orchard, which is why he was arrested and died suddenly in the detention center. What does this have to do with Song Yinhua?

Many villagers in Songzhuang Village knew that Old Man Tang had disliked Song Yinhua since she was a child, constantly causing her trouble and spreading rumors behind her back to frame her.

But no one knows exactly why Old Man Tang targeted Song Erzhuang's eldest daughter.

Old Tang was convinced that Song Yinhua was responsible for the death of his eldest grandson.

If it weren't for Song Yinhua, would her eldest grandson have sent someone to her shop to eat wontons and frame her? Would he have burned down her orchard in the middle of the night? Would he have been arrested? Would he have died?

"It was Song Yinhua who cursed my grandson Dafei to death!" Old Tang was so angry that he raised his cane and slammed it on the dining table. "Xiaowei, bring Yinhua here. I want her to pay for Dafei's life!"

A diner from Songzhuang Village advised Wang Xiaowei, "Xiaowei, murder is illegal. Don't listen to your grandfather. If you cause a death, you'll be in trouble, and your three children might even have to change their surnames."

Wang Xiaowei knew perfectly well how ruthless it was.

He was happy to smash up the wonton shop so that Song Yinhua couldn't do business and make money.

But he absolutely refuses to cause someone's death.

"Grandpa, let's teach Song Yinhua a lesson, smash up her shop, and make sure she can't do business anymore."

"Did Da Feibai die?" Old Tang asked angrily.

“Grandpa, if you want Song Yinhua to pay for Dafei’s life, go find Seventh Uncle. I won’t do it. If I do it, I’ll go to jail myself. Then my wife will remarry with our three children, and my three children will have to call someone else ‘Dad.’”

"Xiaowei, Dafei is your own cousin. How can you bear to watch him die from Yinhua's curse?" Old Man Tang roared in fury.

"I'll smash her shop to pieces to vent Dafei's anger. Grandpa, don't be angry anymore." Wang Xiaowei said, and started smashing the shop again.

Tang Dafei's younger brother, Tang Xiaofei, also grabbed a stick and started smashing things wildly, wanting to avenge his older brother.

Old Tang praised his grandson, "Xiao Fei, well done! Go and bring Yin Hua over!"

Fifteen-year-old Tang Xiaofei rushed into the kitchen, smashing all the glass panes to pieces. He kicked open the kitchen door and was about to hit it with a stick when he realized that the person inside was a waitress, not Song Yinhua.

The police car was parked outside at that moment.

Police officers rushed in and arrested the group of people causing trouble.

The elderly officer and his wife, who had been sitting at the corner table, witnessed the whole thing and were shocked that their granddaughter-in-law's family could be so arrogant and domineering in this small rural town.

From the moment Old Man Tang and Wang Xiaowei led a group of people in, the two elderly people recognized the three members of the family who were leading the vandalism.

They met once when they were in the provincial capital.

When my granddaughter-in-law gave birth, more than a dozen members of her family came to the provincial capital to see her, and we had a meal together.

At the dinner table, the Tang family was very kind and polite, and treated him with utmost respect, unlike their domineering attitude today.

When Old Tang was taken away, he shouted, "My grandson-in-law is Tao Dayong, and his grandfather is a retired senior official. Let's see who dares to touch me."

The old man sitting in the corner frowned.

"We'll talk about it at the station." The government officials still took the whole group away.

Song Yinhua, who had just run out of the wonton shop to call the police during the chaos, stood outside the door. Old Man Tang was so angry that he cursed Song Yinhua for killing his eldest grandson and demanded that Song Yinhua pay with her life.

He even boasted that his grandson-in-law's grandfather was a man of great status, blah blah blah...

Tang Xiaofei broke free from the police officers and rushed forward to hit Song Yinhua, but was pulled back by the officers and they were all put into a police car and taken away.

Song Yinhua entered the store, apologized to all the diners, and announced that the meal would be free.

A month later, the true cause of Tang Dafei's death was found out.
