Although the father and son were both quite older and a bit eccentric, Yan Fei found himself fond of them rather quickly. Seeing them both speak so freely on the matter, it seemed certain they weren't just blowing smoke. It was normal for people in small villages to have the same last name and to all be related, making it feel like one big family.

However, given how enthusiastic they were to approach him, Yan Fei figured the situation was more good than bad.
