The old man glanced at Ke Meiyu, knowing she wasn't the type to gossip, so there must be a reason why she asked.
He ignored Zhao Fanghua and said directly to Ke Meiyu, "It was the Red Star Commune under Ji County in N Province back then. I don't know what it's called now."
“Back then, some of us old folks took the train to Beijing, but something happened on the way, so we had to get off and take a bus. That's where we passed through. My second daughter-in-law was about to give birth and didn't have time to go to the hospital, so we found a fellow villager’s house.”
"For various reasons, I couldn't bring my granddaughter to Beijing, so I entrusted her to someone else. I didn't bring her back to my side until she was five or six years old."
"At that time, her biological parents died in an accident."
Ke Meiyu narrowed her eyes slightly and asked calmly, "Grandpa, what proof do you have that you acknowledge your granddaughter?"

"Enough! Who are you? I've been in this house for over twenty years. Now you, a guest, are questioning my identity? Aren't you being a bit too nosy?" Zhao Fanghua said angrily, kicking her foot.
"Grandpa, do you really trust a stranger? She's definitely trying to sow discord! I'm your own granddaughter whom you asked someone to find!"
The old man lowered his eyelids, still ignoring Zhao Fanghua, and earnestly answered Ke Meiyu: "Because that fellow villager used to be my subordinate, he is a very trustworthy person. So, there shouldn't be any chance of making a mistake."
Ke Meiyu suddenly asked, "Grandpa, have you ever met my grandfather?"
Grandma Ke leads everyone in square dancing, but she also joins Grandpa Ke in the choir, one singing and the other playing the trumpet.
The number of people at the senior citizens' university is not large, but it's not small either—five hundred people. Perhaps some of them have never even met you.
