Gao Jianguo has already prepared the meal.

"Jianguo, how can you be so kind?" Shang Yanfang, who had just put the things away, couldn't help but praise the egg noodles she had just made.

"Then eat a little more today," Gao Jianguo suggested. He had always felt that the little girl didn't eat enough.

"Um, I'll try my best." Shang Yanfang really couldn't eat that much.

"Try to eat as much as possible." Gao Jianguo still didn't want to back down.

"Okay then!" Shang Yanfang said reluctantly.

At the dinner table, Shang Yanfang looked at the large bowl of rice and was really worried.

However, she still forced herself to finish the bowl of rice, and was so full that she could hardly sit up.

"Gao Jianguo, it's all your fault, I really feel so full," Shang Yanfang complained, clutching her stomach.

"Come on! I'll help you digest your food." Gao Jianguo reached out and pulled the little girl up from the stool.

Shang Yanfang also stood up with his help.

"Grandpa, I'm taking Yanfang out for a walk to digest her food." Doesn't this sound like a child going out and informing their family?

Gao Jianguo greeted his grandfather, who was enjoying the cool air in the neighboring courtyard, and then slowly strolled around with Shang Yanfang in his arms.

The two only walked in places with fewer people, because if people saw them holding hands, even if they were engaged, there would still be a lot of gossip.

After walking for a while, Shang Yanfang saw the cowshed ahead and remembered what Liu Yan had told her earlier that day.

“Jianguo, Sister Liu Yan told me that Grandpa Gao in that cowshed wants to see you,” Shang Yanfang said, pointing to the cowshed next to her.

"Grandpa Gao from the cowshed? I don't think I know him very well." Gao Jianguo was puzzled. "What does he want with me?"

"I asked Liu Yan, but she didn't know either."

"Alright then, let's go back first, and I'll come back later when it's a bit later," Gao Jianguo said, glancing at the villagers still passing by.

"Okay, let's go back first. I'm not feeling too full now," Shang Yanfang said, touching her stomach.

The two went home together.

Grandpa Zhang and Grandpa Chen were playing chess next to their older brother.

"Grandpa, Grandpa Zhang, thank you for taking care of my brother." Shang Yanfang was deeply moved when she saw the two elderly people quietly taking care of her brother.

"What are you saying? Girl, you're my future granddaughter-in-law, and your brother is practically my grandson too," Grandpa Chen comforted Shang Yanfang.

"Yes, Grandpa, I'll have my brother take care of you in your old age."

"It's getting late, I should go back and rest," said Grandpa Zhang, standing up.

"Grandpa Zhang, let me take you home," Gao Jianguo said, helping Grandpa Zhang up.

“Yes, Jianguo, take it back to your Grandpa Zhang,” Old Master Chen said, waving his hand.

"Grandpa, come, let me help you back to your room to rest." Shang Yanfang helped Grandpa Chen back to his room as well.

Back in the room, Shang Yanfang first touched her brother's head and, finding it wasn't hot, took out a book from her luggage and started reading.

She didn't even notice when Gao Jianguo returned.

When Gao Jianguo returned, he saw the little girl reading a book attentively, so he picked up a book and started reading as well.

Time passed quietly.

It was already ten o'clock when Gao Jianguo came out of the book.

"Clang, clang, clang." Gao Jianguo tapped on the table, trying to get the little girl's attention.

Seeing the little girl raise her head, Gao Jianguo said, "Yanfang, I'm going to the cowshed to see what Old Man Gao wants with me."

"Ah, oh, okay, go ahead!" Shang Yanfang had just come out of the world of books, and her mind was still a bit fuzzy.

Gao Jianguo was so adorable by the little girl's dazed look that he couldn't help but rub her head again.

"Jianguo, please bring some food for the two elders," Shang Yanfang instructed the man, after all, the two elders were getting on in years.

"Okay, I'll take a few eggs and a handful of noodles, is that alright?" Gao Jianguo also really enjoyed being managed by someone.

"Okay, be careful on the road and stay safe." Shang Yanfang really has endless worries.

The other side is the cowshed.

"Old Gao, are you sure that Gao Jianguo is your grandson?" Old Master Liu asked his good brother and leader.

"Yes, from the first night we came here, I only saw half of his face in the light, but I felt it was him, it really was him. After that, I could see him every time he passed by. I was sure, he was my eldest grandson who had been missing for many years." Grandpa Gao couldn't help but recall.

"Let's ask him again later. I don't know if he'll come today." Grandpa Liu has been feeling uneasy ever since he told Liu Yan about this in the morning.

"Knock knock knock." Just as the two were about to give up, there was a knock on the door.

"They're here." This time, it was Grandpa Gao who was quickest and opened the door first.

Grandpa Liu glanced at Grandpa Gao, who was three years older than him, and couldn't help but sigh, "An old leader is indeed an old leader; his legs are still so nimble."

When Grandpa Gao opened the door and saw that it was Gao Jianguo, he felt relieved.

Actually, he didn't know whether the young man was willing to come and see him.

"Grandpa Gao, I heard you wanted to see me?" Gao Jianguo said politely.

"Please sit down, please sit down." Old Master Gao pulled the person into the house, peeked around to check the surroundings, and only closed the door after confirming that no one was there.

After lighting the kerosene lamp that Liu Yan had given them a few days ago, they finally sat down.

He scrutinized Gao Jianguo's face closely. 'It's so similar, so incredibly similar, almost exactly like him when he was young.'

Grandpa Liu, who was standing to the side, was also staring at Gao Jianguo in a daze.

"Child, I heard you were picked up from the mountain." Old Master Gao went up and asked him about the information he had learned from the villagers.

Gao Jianguo felt uneasy under the scrutiny. When asked the question, he thought for a moment and said, "Yes, yes."

Upon hearing Gao Jianguo's answer, Grandpa Gao became even more excited.

"Um, who gave you this name?"

"My name? I've forgotten." Gao Jianguo said, trying hard to recall his childhood.

"Do you remember anything from before you were five years old?" Old Master Gao asked persistently.

"I don't remember," Gao Jianguo said directly this time. He had now realized that this person probably knew his biological family.

"Child, your name is Gao Jianguo, you are twenty-three years old this year, and you have a birthmark on your left shoulder, don't you?" Old Master Gao asked somewhat agitatedly.

"Yes, there is." Gao Jianguo thought for a moment and then told the truth.

“Child, I am your own grandfather. I even named you!” Old Master Gao revealed their relationship.

"Um, Grandpa Gao, are you sure?" Gao Jianguo was still a little incredulous.

"It's certain, you look exactly like me when I was young. I'm not lying to you, you can ask your Grandpa Liu if you don't believe me," Grandpa Gao said hurriedly.
