Old Master Wang was worried that Feng Qingqing might misunderstand the situation, and since he played a role in the matter himself, he sought her out to explain the sequence of events.
As it turned out, the person Elder Huang wanted Feng Qingqing to treat was a young girl. She was the daughter of one of Elder Huang’s most capable subordinates, who had tragically died in the line of duty several years prior. The girl’s mother, in poor health, had passed away shortly after receiving the devastating news, leaving the child as the only surviving member of the family.
At the time, the military had intended to bring the girl in and have her adopted by military families who had no children of their own. However, her paternal grandparents had adamantly refused, insisting that their own flesh and blood must not be raised by outsiders. Though the military was uneasy—knowing that the grandmother held a strong bias in favor of boys—they could not forcibly intervene as they were her biological kin. From then on, the military pension and the monthly child support payments provided until the girl turned eighteen were deposited into the grandmother’s account on schedule.
