2655 Kneeling

The Southern Province was a revolutionary place. The martyr memorial park was rather grand. The people buried on the mountain were all martyrs who died for the country in the past or in recent years. Grandpa Gen was buried in a newly built cemetery.

In the black and white picture, Grandpa Gen was wearing an old-fashioned military uniform and an old-fashioned military cap. He smiled slightly and looked over with a firm gaze.

Ye Jian knelt down and looked at the kind-looking Grandpa Gen in the picture. Every time she kowtowed, she used all her strength. She could even hear the sound of her head knocking on the stone floor.

In this lifetime, if she had not gotten Grandpa Gen’s guidance and pulled herself out of the quagmire of revenge, she wouldn’t be the Ye Jian she was now.

!!

She might still be alive and well, but she would definitely be traumatized and live a gray life tortured by hatred.

It was because of Grandpa Gen that Ye Jian was able to walk on a broader path. That was how Ye Jian became who she was today and how she was able to reunite with her father.

She kowtowed three times to the old man who was sleeping here. “Grandpa, I’m here to see you, and I’ve brought my father. Grandpa, I’ve found my dad. I came with Dad to visit you.”

As soon as she opened her mouth, she choked on her words.

Mr. Fu knelt down too. He kowtowed to the old man who took care of his daughter and helped raise her. “Uncle Gen, I’m Jian’s father and Red Plum’s husband. It’s all thanks to you that Jian is where she is today. Thank you, Uncle Gen.

“You’re the benefactor of the Fu family. You’re the one who gave the Fu family hope. Without you, Jian wouldn’t be here today. There wouldn’t be a reunion between us father and son. Thank you, Uncle Gen.”

This was the first time Mr. Fu saw Grandpa Gen. He was very polite and kowtowed heavily with every sentence he said.

The old man was already dead, so Mr. Fu couldn’t use other methods to show his filial piety. He could only kowtow to express his gratitude.

The father and daughter got up after kowtowing. Then, they stood in front of Grandpa Gen and bowed deeply.

“Grandpa, I’m going to visit Mom with Dad. I’ll come and see you next time.”

Ye Jian looked at the old man in the picture. The old man was smiling at her. Just like every time she left the village, the old man would always straighten his back and watch her leave step by step with a kind and encouraging gaze.

“Goodbye, Uncle Gen. Next time, I’ll bring my daughter to visit you.”

Full of gratitude, Mr. Fu thanked Grandpa Gen again before leaving with Ye Jian.

After paying their respects to Grandpa Gen, the father’s and daughter’s hearts were a little heavy. Ye Jian walked up the long stone stairs and talked about Grandpa Gen’s deeds when he was alive so that Mr. Fu could understand Grandpa Gen better.

Mr. Fu listened for a long time. A hint of doubt flashed past his mind. He asked, “You only met him when you were in junior high. What about before that? Who adopted you before you were 14? Since I’ve come back to the Southern Province and I’ll even be visiting Principal Chen, I’ll also thank the family that adopted you.”

Ye Jian’s facial expressions froze.

Yes, that was right.

She kept talking about Grandpa Gen, Principal Chen, Commander Liu, Commissar Yan, and Captain Xia in the military unit. Her story started when she was in junior high. She didn’t mention anything before she turned 14 years old.

Initially, she planned to tell her father more secrets after visiting her mother. Besides, her father had been immersed in the sorrow of meeting her and her mother’s passing these few days, so he didn’t ask about her life before she turned 14 years old.
