After crying for a while, the family wiped away their tears embarrassedly and talked to Qian Xiaolan.
The woman’s husband’s surname is Jiang, and these two elderly people are her parents-in-law. Big Head Daddy went out to sea and never came back.
The two old men are only in their fifties, with hunched backs, but their faces look like they are in their sixties or seventies.
The old lady's hand was shaking as she held Qian Xiaolan's, and she kept saying thank you.
