Ng Hung On’s father was originally a descendent of the eldest branch. He was adopted by the 4th branch when he was 7 or 8 years old. When a family had too many children to support, they would have some of them adopted so the adopted children had better living. The eldest and 4th branches had a common founding ancestor. Although being adopted, his father kept in touch with the eldest branch (his family), but he was not eligible for inheritance of the eldest branch’s properties and attendance of their ancestral worships. Ng Hung On had never met his natural grandfather. But he had heard about his natural grandfather’s children from his father. Ng Hung On had close relationship with uncle Tei Hing, who was a member of the eldest branch. Uncle Tei Hing was 10 years older than him. When Ng Hung On was a child, uncle Tei Hing used to take him out for entertainment. After the Second World War, uncle Tei Hing worked in the military service where he was the ‘No. 1 of coolies’. Later on he went to Britain where he worked and settled. At first, he worked as a waiter in the restaurants and later opened his own restaurant. When uncle Tei Hing was 70 years old, he returned to Hong Kong for celebration of his birthday. His uncle’s eldest son Sui Kuen returned to Hong Kong more frequently. He returns to the village every year for the ancestral worship.
