"What a smart kid. He must know that's his grandfather."
Yang Wenxiu nodded. "We've told him all about it."
"Shitou's father was a martyr. It hasn't been easy for your mother-in-law all these years, but it's a good thing she has you now."
Yang Wenxiu was deeply moved. "Yes, my mother-in-law is a wonderful person. Thanks to her help all these years in Beijing City, we've been able to work without any worries."
"I never knew before that my mother-in-law was literate. She can even tell the kids stories."
Xue Yue was also a little surprised. "Really?"
"Mhm, I only heard about it from Shitou. His grandmother was the daughter of a wealthy family, but the war destroyed her home, and only then did she marry his grandfather."
"No wonder she's literate, then."
The conversation then turned to work. Xue Yue asked her, "I've been so busy I haven't had a chance to stop by the store. Are you settling in as the store manager?"
