The entire Shi household was in chaos. All the servants busted about as they rushed to follow Elder Shi's instructions. Though the old man never much interfered with the household staff and lived almost like a ghost in his mausoleum of a house, today it seemed as if someone had breathed life into him. Even his white glossy hair seemed to be shining like a halo.
For Elder Shi, it really was a rebirth, a chance to correct his past mistakes. And make amends to his remaining family. Finally both his granddaughters were going to be under his roof. He felt saddened for a moment that he had missed out on their childhood but then with the experience of age, he understood that we can only look forward. Since he did not know what his granddaughters liked to eat, he had sent the cooks in a flurry by ordering them to make all the dishes that his wife and daughter had liked to eat.he even ordered some western dishes in case they did not like the traditional Chinese fare.
