On the Xiangyang Brigade side, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yi seem to have matured a lot since their father's accident.
Now living in the cowshed, they not only help with the cleaning every day, but also think of all the things that need to be done in advance without complaining.
Old Fu, who lived in the cowshed, could occasionally hear the faint laughter of children in the distance. His face would light up with a smile, and he would be full of energy.
This man is getting old; he's just chasing a single thought.
The young master still needs to hold on to his frail body and watch him grow up properly.
And revenge...
Thinking of this, the straw in my hand snapped, almost pricking my palm, but it was already calloused from the friction, so I just wiped it away.
Without even a furrow of his brow or a change in expression, he nimbly resumed his work.
These days, he's been thinking about whether or not to meet Shi Lingheng. Although Zhang Desheng is now following Shi Lingheng, in terms of the Fu family's relationship, he's still closer to him and listens to him more. So Shi Lingheng is unaware of his existence.
But now he...
Looking at his broken leg, the old man felt powerless to do anything.
That day, when Zhang Desheng had some free time to come over, Old Man Fu mentioned this matter. Zhang Desheng respected Old Man Fu as much as his own grandfather, so upon hearing this, he nodded and immediately agreed.
Suddenly, Zhang Desheng used an emergency meeting signal to arrive at the agreed location. After listening to him, Shi Lingheng exclaimed in surprise, "What? Old Master Fu?"
He had an impression of Old Man Fu; he had heard his brother mention him before, but he had never met him in person.
He didn't think much of the fact that Old Man Fu had asked Zhang Desheng to conceal his existence; he was full of cunning and wanted to see if Zhang Desheng was reliable.
Moreover, he guessed that Old Man Fu probably knew of Fu Weidong's existence. His elder brother had mentioned before that Old Man Fu held a certain position in the Fu family, so he figured that Old Man Fu had many things to discuss with him...
Therefore, it was natural that they had to meet.
As for the meeting, let Zhang Desheng make the arrangements.

That day, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yi returned, and Old Man Fu pointed to the water that was cooling down next to them, saying that it was prepared for them.
Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yi, the brother and sister, didn't think much of it. These days, Old Man Fu had been like this: when they came back from outside, they were extremely thirsty, and it would be best to have water readily available.
After drinking their water today, Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yi yawned and couldn't help but say, "I don't know if we're too tired, Grandpa Fu, let's rest for a while, and then we'll get something to eat..."
Old Fu glanced at them, gave a nonchalant "hmm," and continued weaving the straw in his hands.
In the dead of night, when he heard a nightingale sing outside, Old Man Fu put his hand in his mouth and skillfully made the same sound.
Shi Lingheng and Zhang Desheng entered one after the other and saw Jiang Cheng and Jiang Yi sleeping soundly beside them...
He didn't say anything.
Since Old Man Fu allowed them to come in like this, he must have already made arrangements.
Old Fu had been weaving thatch without stopping. Over the years, he had gotten used to it. He felt uneasy when he didn't have anything in his hands.
He glanced at Shi Lingheng, a rare smile appearing on his usually expressionless face: "Just like our son-in-law, he's a respectable young man."
