The house they lived in was part of a large residence assigned by the state. Most of the people who worked in the same factory lived here. There was a large courtyard at the ground level and many old people liked to hold their activities there.
Zhou Hong's family lived on the third floor. The house consisted of three rooms and a living room, and had a floor area of about seventy square meters. In the town, it was considered to be a fairly spacious house. Both Zhou Hong and Wang Guozhu worked, so they had been assigned this type of housing.
When Zhou Hong returned, she saw the old lady, whose name was Liang Zhaodi. Her name alone showed what kind of family she had been born into. Also, Old Madam's personality truly matched her name.
Sitting in front of her was another old lady from the residence. The latter was carrying her young grandson in her arms, while a slightly older grandson played nearby. Her eldest grandson, from another son, was at her house.
