Old Master Lian lowered his head and glanced at Lian Manman before letting out a soft sigh.
"Grandpa, my eldest uncle can't do without you," Lian Manman said softly as well. In her eyes, Lian Shouren was somewhat of a mama's boy in certain aspects. For instance, his complete lack of responsibility during the usury incident, where he took all the benefits for himself but pushed every responsibility onto his aging father. As the eldest son on whom the family had placed great hope, a man well over forty with grandchildren and still wearing a Scholar's headband, would normally be expected to shoulder the entire family's responsibility.
"Yes, Dad," Lian Shouxin added, "I think my elder brother might not realize it himself, but in fact, he still needs your help for a few more years."
"Mhm, mhm," Lian Manman nodded vigorously, her large eyes shining brightly as she looked at Old Master Lian.
