Song Yining established a women and children's foundation and travels all over the country every year to adopt abandoned children.
Especially for families with disabled members or girls, with the development of the times.
The government has proposed a policy that encourages families to have one child, and in rural areas, if the first child is a girl, the couple can have a second child.
Many girls are still abandoned; this problem exists everywhere.
To solve this problem, she also had to specifically find places in each location to take in those children.
They have dedicated teachers who guide them step by step, so they can have a skill when they enter society.
This is extremely time-consuming, but it's necessary for better development.
She also tried many methods to invest locally.
The pharmaceutical factory has been doing quite well in the past few years.
Song Yining still managed to buy the land at the former site of the Shen family's villa in the mountains.
It served as a private retreat for several elderly people during the summer. The environment there was excellent, and they could often soak in hot springs.
It's a private area inside, and Song Yining doesn't open it to the public. She only comes here when her family is together.
There are people specifically assigned to clean it up; the pharmaceutical factory is right down the mountain, so no one can get up there.
This is a private place, where family members stay.
The Shen family has recently been discussing returning to their hometown, which they haven't been back to for many years.
I don't know what the ancestral graves in my hometown are like. Our ancestors haven't paid their respects for many years.
Shen Guoliang has contacted Song Yining and explained the situation.
As someone who encountered a strange event, Song Yining also wanted to go back to visit and pay respects to her ancestors in her hometown.
After making these arrangements, Song Yining prepared to head back to her hometown.
It's been ten years since I last went back, and this time I'm going back with Shen Zhiming.
Shen Zhiming had also been away from his hometown for twenty years, and Song Yining's child was still young these past few years.
I had no intention of going back, but I'll take this opportunity to go back and visit.
They left in a hurry back then, and the village kept money there for them after they were gone.
We wonder if anyone is watching over our ancestors, or if those people have disturbed our ancestral graves.
Song Yining had no idea what Shen Zhiming was thinking when those people entered the Shen family's ancestral graves back then.
But they went in vertically and came out horizontally, and within a few months, they disappeared from the desertification control efforts in Northwest China.
Seeing the terrible state of those people, many people were so frightened that they gave up the idea.
The people of Shenjia Village have maintained their customs for over a decade, and even with the reform and opening up in recent years, they have not forgotten the kindness shown to them by the Shen family.
There was no other way, so Song Yining asked the children for leave to go back home. This time, she also wanted them to see their mother's hometown.
They chose to take the train back so that the children could see the scenery along the way.
The weather in October, the golden autumn month, is filled with a joyful atmosphere.
Amidst the joy of a bountiful harvest, the children witnessed a different scene.
Grandpa Song and Grandma went back together. At their age, they don't know how many more times they'll be able to come back.
This time the number of people is much smaller, and Mo Yucheng has also taken leave.
As the son-in-law of the Shen family, they still had to go back, and this time they brought their children with them.
After getting off the train, Zhang Lan and Song Chengzhi had been waiting for a long time.
The two were very happy to see the six children.
As the children grow older, they realize that their mother grew up with her maternal grandparents.
Because her biological parents had important matters to attend to, her mother has two grandparents and two parents.
Seeing that so many people love their mother, the children envied her even more.
After arriving at my hometown, I first went to the Song family's courtyard, which has been empty for many years.
This time, I came back to give it a thorough cleaning. As for the Shen family's old house, it has been back in the hands of the Shen family for many years.
As for the place in the Shen family that Song Yining visited, it was the courtyard that Shen Zhiming gave to his wife.
It holds many memories for the couple, and they look at this familiar place.
The couple were filled with memories, the sound of the wind blowing in their ears.
And that creepy feeling, now it can rest.
It had completed its mission, and the yard was almost tidied up.
The courtyard still needs to be properly restored in the future, as they will still return every year for their ancestral worship.
Even though they don't live here, the Shen family's roots are still here.
The main force headed towards Shenjia Village, attracting many onlookers along the way.
As the cars arrived one after another, the village chief of Shenjia Village had been waiting for a long time.
Shen Junjie had already contacted the villagers in advance, and they were ready to welcome Shen Guoliang and his group.
Shen Guoliang had already informed the local government in advance of his return.
The roads surrounding Shenjia Village were all built with funding from the Shen Group.
The Shen Group also operates factories and construction businesses in the city.
Several major projects at the city and provincial levels were spearheaded by Song Chengzhi, who worked together to complete various development initiatives.
Shen Guoliang looked at the familiar place and the familiar people, and he burst into tears.
They had no choice but to venture out into the world back then, and now they see their peers who are the same age as them.
They were all old and some had passed away, but most of the people in Shenjia Village were still alive.
They felt that it was the Shen family's ancestral graves that protected them and kept them healthy.
Many members of the Shen family live long lives, and Shen Guoliang is very gratified to see those elderly people.
Shen Guoliang led the children to the ancestral gravesite, and he carefully observed the surroundings.
This is not something that can be accomplished in just a few days, even though Shen Zhiming has already paid everyone.
Even though they've been gone all these years, those people still persist in helping the Shen family with those things.
Shen Guoliang looked at the village chief, at a loss for words to express his gratitude.
"Third brother, I left in a hurry back then, leaving the family to you."
You've worked so hard all these years, I don't know how to thank you enough.
I never imagined you've done so much for us over the years.
This trip back was also to discuss making some contribution to Shenjia Village.
Village Chief Shen knew that Shen Guoliang was a good person; he had seen everything Shen Guoliang had done for Shenjia Village over the years.
“It’s all something we should do. Besides, Zhiming has been helping us send money all those years.”
We've helped solve the difficulties in our village; these are things we could do, and we still feel quite ashamed.
While Shen Guoliang was exchanging pleasantries with Village Chief Shen, he then greeted everyone one by one.
He completely shed the air of a high-ranking figure from his time in the port city, and now he greets the elderly in the village in a very friendly manner.
He brought many daily necessities with him and came back to visit the elderly in the village.
Every family with elderly people and children received rice, flour, and cooking oil, and the villagers were very grateful to the Shen family.
The Shen family has helped them a lot over the years, especially with the children's education.
