Didn't you say you were taking your grandson out to visit friends?
He hasn't been gone long, how come that guy got married and left his wife in his hometown?
She probably doesn't want her eldest grandson to live under her stepmother's care, right?
This father-in-law is truly a man who, when he does speak, makes a stunning statement.
I've never seen him act so decisively before.
What triggered this?
Shi Xiucai ignored their shock, plopped down, took a couple of sips of tea, and then slowly explained the reason:

If his father hadn't mentioned his son, he wouldn't have realized the kid hadn't come back.
It was also because he didn't care much about his eldest son from his previous marriage. However, he was still a little unhappy to hear that his good-for-nothing eldest son had been left in his hometown.
He couldn't explain why.
