Although Yi Anguo didn't know much about his sister-in-law's personality and temperament, he was somewhat aware, since people in the village would occasionally mention her.

The sister-in-law was relatively assertive; calling her fierce would also be accurate. She had a particularly sharp tongue, and in an argument, most people couldn't beat her. When pushed, she would resort to physical blows.

During the division of the family property, she had quite a few arguments with her in-laws. People in the village, when talking about her, were somewhat unsure of how to comment on her as a person.

After the older brother's sacrifice, the sister-in-law received care from the local government and got a job at the lime factory. Later, she transferred to a state-run forestry workplace and then went to work at the Jian'an Fertilizer Plant.

The most talked-about aspect in the village regarding the sister-in-law was that after the older brother's sacrifice, she got involved with several men one after another before finally settling down with a man at the fertilizer plant and formally married him.

Initially, the two sons were taken care of by their grandparents, but later they went with their mother to the school affiliated with the fertilizer plant.

Not long after, that man was transferred to work elsewhere, and the sister-in-law took the two nephews with her, after which contact with them nearly ceased.

But Yi Anguo somewhat understood the sister-in-law's painstaking intentions in his heart. As a woman who had lost her husband, there was nothing wrong with her finding another man, remarrying, and starting a family.

Moreover, the sister-in-law had not let down the older brother; she didn't abandon the two sons, and even after remarrying with them, she didn't change their surname.

The reason the sister-in-law became involved with a few men after the older brother's sacrifice is also not her fault; she didn't actually do anything wrong.

Because her future partner needed to be someone she liked, and someone that her two sons could accept.

That man not only had to be good to her but also good enough to her two sons, treating them as his own.

Additionally, the man had to be capable, have a good job, a stable job, and a high income.

This way, he could take better care of her and her two sons.

This wasn't selfish of her at all; it was precisely a demonstration of the sister-in-law's greatness as a mother.

The facts also proved that the man she finally chose treated her two sons as if they were his own.

Not only did he sponsor her two sons' education, but he also helped them establish families and careers, with each having a house when they got married.

If the two nephews had stayed in the village, living with their grandparents, they would certainly have grown up fine, possibly finishing junior high school, but establishing families and careers wouldn't have been easy.

So in Yi Anguo's heart, he had no objections to his sister-in-law and could understand her hardships.

Now on the phone, his sister-in-law kept talking to Yi Anguo, fundamentally it was because of her two sons — for their benefit, pleading with their uncle to take care of them, hoping he would give them some advantages.

Yi Anguo practically grew up with his two nephews; the last time they met, they were about seven or eight years old. The eldest, Yi Haijun, was indeed an honest man with a sensible disposition from a young age.

The second, Yi Haitao, on the other hand, was quite mischievous, not willing to suffer losses, and had a bit of a cunning character, being sharp-witted and articulate.

The previous men that the sister-in-law dated were all sabotaged by the second, Yi Haitao. If Yi Haitao didn't like them, the sister-in-law had no choice but to compromise.

The man she finally settled with managed to subdue Yi Haitao, truly liked him, and treated him as his own, which showed the man was indeed capable.

This was indeed the case, as the man turned out to be a retired soldier who had seen combat and was assigned to work at the fertilizer plant.

Additionally, he was an educated man, able to write beautiful calligraphy, and he was tall and powerfully built, responsible for procurement and sales at the fertilizer plant, and was also a lawyer knowledgeable in the law.

Good job! High income! Good looks, being good to the sister-in-law, and genuinely good to her two sons. That's why they could last together.

The two nephews also greatly respected this stepfather, treating him as their own father.

A few days later, on a Sunday, the sister-in-law brought her two sons, the daughters-in-law, and four grandchildren to Shenzhen to find Yi Anguo. Yi Anguo saw the long-unseen and slightly unfamiliar sister-in-law's family at his villa by Xiangye Lake.

Yi Haitao was tall, about 1.8 meters, having fully inherited the superior genes of the older brother. Though not fat, he looked robust and powerful, having a clean and fair face, seemingly even more handsome than his uncle, Yi Anguo.

Yi Haijun, on the other hand, was slightly shorter, less than 1.7 meters, with a relatively thin build. Wearing glasses, he appeared more refined, and there was a hint of shrewdness in his eyes.

Their wives seemed to be quite good at choosing partners, both having a bit of a plump figure.

The sister-in-law wasn't slim, but not particularly fat either, her hair showing a lot of gray. Being almost 60, having gray hair was quite normal.

"Sister-in-law!" Despite not seeing her for many years, despite his memory already blurring, and despite the sister-in-law having long lost her youthful appearance, Yi Anguo could still recognize her because she was the oldest among those who came.
