After speaking, Ge Lihua continued forward to the workshop area to inquire about the boy who had been taking care of his sick grandfather from someone from the same village, "Brother Xu, how was Xu Zeliang's grandfather last night…?"
She intentionally left her question half-asked, so she would know the truth as soon as the other party responded.
The man known as Brother Xu immediately said, "Last night, Zeliang's grandfather was in a critical condition, nearly passed away. Thankfully, he devotedly took care of him deep into the night, and only then did his grandfather's condition improve. The boy's filial piety is commendable."
It seemed that Xu Zeliang was telling the truth. Ge Lihua nodded, "Thank you."
The man waved his hand. "You're welcome."
Ge Lihua returned to the schoolhouse, finding the boy who had been sent away still kneeling at the entrance.
