Zhao Erhu's grandfather, when he passed away, was worried about his young grandson, and especially asked an old friend to look after him, which is why Zhao Erhu's father and stepmother, despite not having much love for him, still arranged his marriage to Lin Yue. It was due to the pressure exerted by his great-uncle, though the silver for the wedding ultimately still came from Zhao Erhu himself. Zhao Erhu, in his spare time, would also visit his great-uncle. In fact, according to Zhao Erhu, if not for the duty of filial piety weighing on him, he would rather transfer his father's share to his great-uncle, as he had no other emotional ties to the old house except for his big brother's family.
