Shen Siyuan had thought that the generational gap Shen Jianjun and his wife spoke of was merely a matter of age.
But he hadn't expected that it was far more than that.
It turned out that Yu Youcai had a comrade fall in battle, and with his dying breath entrusted his wife and daughter to him.
The two were from the same hometown, and Brother Yu had taken good care of him, so Yu Youcai felt obliged both morally and emotionally.
Upon returning from military service, he kept his promise, showing great respect and care for Brother Yu's wife and daughter.
Because of this bond with Brother Yu, the two families interacted quite frequently.
Back then people were simpler, and their feelings towards each other were very sincere.
"Eh, it couldn't be that the comrade's widow fell for uncle, could it? That's really nothing to make a fuss about."
A widower with a widow would be considered a match made in heaven.
