Wei Aiguo took Song Yan to see Lao Zeng.

Song Yan showed the things that Shen Ruomei had given her to Lao Zeng.

"What are you doing?" Old Zeng asked.

“Godfather, this is what I should be asking you,” Song Yan said.

"Don't you like courtyard houses? I already told you, if you return them, I'll give them to you."

"I've given you everything, my godfather. I'll be relying on you for my retirement." Old Zeng said, patting the property certificate.

"Godfather, even without these things, I can't let you go hungry."

But do you understand? Sons and grandsons are not as valuable as money. It's always better to keep things in your own hands.

Besides, they are your children after all. You need to consider these things carefully. Song Yan believed in the saying, "The deeper the love, the deeper the hate."

If a complete stranger kicks you when you're down, then so be it. But if it's a close relative, it could become a lifelong unresolved issue.

The reason is that hatred only arises from feelings.

Old Zeng rubbed his face vigorously with his hands. "Sigh! Xiao Yan, you're young! There are some things you don't understand, you really don't understand."

Are you afraid I'll regret giving you something?

"Impossible."

Song Yan was about to speak when Old Zeng waved his hand. "Child, sometimes people are stubborn; once they've made up their minds about something, they don't want to change."

Like Shen Ruomei, I heard you were classmates with her. She's a really nice girl, isn't she? But no matter how nice she is, I don't want to give her my sister's things. Giving her a few things as a keepsake is fine, but nothing else.

Xiaoyan! You're my daughter, so you can have my things.

I didn't have these things before, they were buried underground. I thought that if I hadn't accepted you as my daughter, those things would have remained buried underground forever, and I would never have given them away.

Both children have taken the surname Fu; their surname is ingrained in their bones and can never be changed back.

There are some things you don't know. In the first few days after I came to the brigade, Fu Baozhen came to see me... no, she didn't come to see me, she came to find me... and we were no longer father and daughter.

Needless to say, there's that kid who's called me "Dad" for over ten years. I've never really liked him since we were kids, and we're not meant to be.

If you and this kid aren't from the same family, I can give him a courtyard, and I can also give him some of the things that come with it.

Since you two are from the same family, you can take all the things.

Old Zeng is quite stubborn; once he makes a decision, he doesn't easily change it.

Song Yan thought for a moment and put the things away, deciding to leave them with him.

If Lao Zeng ever decides to reclaim this property, I'm not going to refuse him.

"Godfather, I've put the things away for now. I'll keep them safe for you."

Old Zeng waved his hand, saying that Song Yan could say whatever she wanted, as long as she took the things.

There are a lot of people at home during the day, and it's been quite noisy lately. Old Zeng didn't want to wait until later to talk about it; he wanted to chat with Wei Aiguo right now.

Old Zeng: "Take Xiao Yan back, and I'll have a chat with you."

Wei Aiguo nodded and sent Song Yan back.

After Wei Aiguo returned, he sat down face to face with Lao Zeng.

Old Zeng cut to the chase and asked him, "How much do you know about your background?"

Wei Aiguo placed the two bullet heads in front of Lao Zeng.

Wei Aiguo's hands trembled slightly. It was a gift his wife had prepared for him and his sister. "I thought I'd never see another bullet in my life."

“I never thought it would happen to me,” Wei Aiguo said.

"You've acknowledged him as your father?" Old Zeng asked.

"No, I don't want to admit it," Wei Aiguo answered without hesitation. "Besides, I don't want to tell my mother about this yet. Let's talk about it when we get to Kyoto..."

The two talked for a long time. When Wei Aiguo returned, Song Yan was already asleep…

The next day, everyone in the village knew that Wei Aiguo had returned to take his family to Kyoto. Even Wei Aiguo's job was transferred to Kyoto.

This is making a lot of people extremely envious.

What kind of place is Kyoto? Where is Aunt Wei going to live?

When Wei Ping and Wei An were little, everyone said they were pitiful, and that when Song Yan came in, everyone was waiting to see what would happen! But it turns out these two kids are well-fed and well-dressed. Now they're even going to Kyoto with their uncle.

There will always be people who make sarcastic remarks.

"Kyoto is such a good place to live! Song Yan is still in school, and Wei Aiguo's salary alone can support a whole family."

"Tch! You guys have no taste, have you? Song Yan has recognized Old Zeng as his godfather. Look how much that old man dotes on Yueyue now, just like his own granddaughter."

"Chang Xiaohu brings home food every day, saying that Old Zeng paid for it..."

I heard that old man's salary is quite high now.

Someone else is being sarcastic: That's a money pit!

Many people then realized: they should have treated them better.

What others say has nothing to do with Wei Aiguo.

Wei Aiguo and Song Yan both wanted to visit the families of their friends and even brought them gifts!

Wei Aiguo and Song Yan carried salted duck eggs, dates, two pheasants, dried bamboo fungus, and a headscarf. Song Yan wouldn't let them keep the headscarf. "Give it away! It's still a pretty presentable gift these days."

The captain's wife, and Wu Dayong and Wu Eryong's wives. Song Yan went to Captain Wu's house and made everything very clear.

Their family needs to leave the production brigade, which will definitely require a letter of introduction from the brigade leader. The brigade leader certainly won't make things difficult for them in this matter.

Over the years, I have received a lot of care from the brigade leader. It is only right that I express my gratitude.

It would be a lie to say that the team leader's wife wasn't moved when she saw Wei Aiguo carrying so many things.
