"Only three daughters?" Lou Wenjian looked curious and feigned confusion, "I heard there's a little son too."
"That's Liu Guangmao's youngest brother's." The middle-aged man sighed, "Guangliang used to be our brigade's only officer, but who'd have thought he'd pass away so young, leaving a little child to make a living in someone else's hands."
"Make a living?" Lou Wenjian was surprised, "Logically, since their family has no son, wouldn't they be even more affectionate towards their nephew?"
"Hey, their family..." The middle-aged man started to say but then thought better of it, realizing the person was here to inquire about the girls' family. It wouldn't be good if he ruined their chance, so he made an excuse to leave for work.
Next, Lou Wenjian found some women. Women like to talk more and once they heard he was asking about Liu Guangmao's family, the women sitting under a big banyan tree in the village, cooling off and sorting vegetables, began to chatter away.
