The saying goes, 'First generation close, second generation distant, third generation blurred.' Because Ye Weidong is an only child, with no siblings, and he spends most of his time here in Jinling, there's really nothing left in the old home except an old house, a few plots of farmland, and hillside.
In fact, Ye Weidong knows that his father's generation, or Ye Qiu's grandfather, might have had some real familial ties, like his uncles and such.
For instance, among Ye Weidong's uncles, the oldest is already eighty or ninety years old, while the youngest is over sixty. Additionally, the aunts who got married off should be seventy or eighty at the oldest, and fifty or sixty at the youngest.
Anyway, they seldom meet.
In the past, when Ye Weidong and his wife worked at the textile factory, which was state-owned, his cousins of the same generation really envied him for living in a big city.
