Under One Person: The frog cub gave me an insulating claw at the beginning

The butler smiled. He seemed to see the old man in the child, and the old man used to say the same thing.

“You’re right. Actually, your grandfather was also like that. But later, because his business was not doing well, he accidentally lost his way. If he were still alive, he would be very pleased that you grew up to look like this.”

"But it's okay now. I'm by your side, protecting you. I will never let you go astray. Otherwise, I would definitely be letting down your deceased grandfather."

After hearing what the butler said, the little boy became even more curious about what his grandfather looked like, since the old man had sent him away after he was born.

He knows his status as an illegitimate child is awkward, but unfortunately, his family members are either dead or disabled, leaving him all alone.

"But I'm still so young, how can I inherit the family business? And although my grandfather didn't like me before, I understand that this is a family tradition, but that doesn't mean I can inherit it."

His expression was serious; he knew he might not be able to do it, so he made no promises.

Moreover, he was filled with worry at this moment. When the butler heard this, he sighed, but he knew that no matter what happened, he would stay by the child's side.

"Don't worry, I'm here for you. I will definitely help you rebuild your business. I know it will be difficult and I'm sorry to trouble you."

After he finished speaking, the butler began to call in the teachers outside; these were the teachers he had hired for the child.

The children are still young, and he will help manage the family businesses, but he will never take those businesses for himself.

If he had wanted to, he would have started his own business when he was younger, and the little boy clearly trusted him implicitly.

The old man was drinking a cup of tea when he suddenly spoke.

“That old man Su is my childhood friend, after all. It should be the seventh day after his death by now. Let’s go and see him.”

After saying that, he picked up the cane beside him. At this age, he didn't have many friends left. When he was young, Old Master Su was one of his close friends.

Anyway, at his age, right and wrong don't always matter, and the other person is already dead, so there's nothing to argue about. Feng Tianci knew that his grandfather missed his good friend, so without saying a word, he went with the old man.

"Grandpa, since you want to go, I will definitely go with you."

A light rain began to fall outside. Feng Tianci followed behind the old man, holding a black umbrella. The old man stared at the black and white photo and was speechless. "Why are you so competitive?" he said.
Perhaps you don't need to worry about it. Your business will continue to grow gradually. Your children and grandchildren will have their own lives. Why do you have to open your mouth so wide?
"Old man, even after you were crushed to death, you all accomplished your careers. It's a pity. I still feel healthy and strong. How did you become like this? If you hadn't become like this, maybe I could have given you a hand."

“You used to say that I was a hard-hearted person, and that I would not even acknowledge my own son if I found out about something improper. You were right. After all these years of relationship between us, I did not even acknowledge you after what happened.”

The old man seemed to have aged considerably in an instant. In truth, Feng Tianci knew that his grandfather must have struggled internally about whether or not to forgive his friend. But after the struggle, his grandfather still chose to stand on the side of justice, so this time his grandfather felt as if he had let his friend down.

“It’s alright, Grandpa. Before he died, Grandpa Su said that you have always been a very righteous person, and he does not regret anything he has done. He just felt that since he had been discovered, he would never live a life of dishonor.”

The old man started talking about their youth, and Feng Tianci just listened. By the end, the old man felt he had been rambling on, and there was nothing more to say about the past.

"Alright, let's go back. I know we've been here for a long time, and if we linger any longer, your mother-in-law will start nagging again when we get back. She cares about you a lot, so don't disappoint her."

After the old man finished speaking, he walked away with his cane. Looking at his grandfather's back, Feng Tianci even wondered if he had done something wrong.

Suddenly, a figure appeared beside them. After Baihe finished her work, she came over and saw Feng Tianci looking lost.

Knowing about recent events, and understanding that Feng Tianci had struggled internally, perhaps even wanting to compromise for his grandfather.

"Want to go out for a drink? I knew you needed someone with you at this time. If it were your mother-in-law, you would feel that it would only cause her more trouble, so I'm the best choice."

Seeing how relaxed he was now, completely unlike his former self, Feng Tianci was genuinely happy for him.

"You've become a bit more lively, but that liveliness is just what makes you happier."

“My sister has changed a lot. That little girl is getting healthier and taller. She loves her job very much. Aside from all that, I think you should also find something more relaxed to do.”

Feng Tianci had no intention of listening to his advice. When the two arrived at the tavern, Baihe, as before, ordered some food for each of them.

How has your mother-in-law been feeling lately?

"Your health is pretty good. Didn't you recently say you wanted to go somewhere else to gain some experience?"

The two chatted casually, while under the eaves, the old man drank alone.

If he were at home, perhaps the housekeeper could keep him company, but he wasn't at home, so he could only drink alone, and he had no idea what that old man was doing.
Just then, the housekeeper called the old man.

"Grandpa, everything's fine here lately, and several people are helping to keep things stable at the company, so you can travel around for a while longer before coming back. But you told me you insisted on sending me some local specialties, those haven't arrived yet." (End of Chapter)
