Old Man Gao's father was from another village.
Because of his family's decline, he stayed here and met Old Man Gao's mother, then settled down and married.
Though he was from a declining family, he had been in business before.
Old Man Gao's father used the remaining money he had to buy a large piece of land in the village, intending to leave it all to his son after he died.
However, not long after Old Man Gao's father passed away, the village chief set his eyes on this land.
The village chief borrowed the land from Old Man Gao under the pretext of his son getting married.
Clearly, both parties agreed that after the village chief's family planted crops of sorghum, they would give the harvest to the bride's family as a wedding gift and then return the land to Old Man Gao.
However, after the village chief's son got married, he continued to occupy the land.
The excuses kept piling up.
Such as the daughter-in-law being pregnant, the grandson being born.
