Hearing Su Zhi's sigh, A Jin stopped what she was doing.
Su Zhi shook her head and smiled faintly. ”A Jin, do you still want to return to An Jing village?”
”Mother, why do you ask this?”
”Mother didn't have any other intentions. I just wanted to ask if you think it's better to return to the village or if you're willing to change the environment.”
A Jin was at a loss, unconsciously moving the branch in his hand. Returning to Tranquil Village meant that they would have to live their past lives once again. The long-tongued woman next to them had cut off their heads and bullied them.
In the past, with her father here, no one would dare to touch them. Now that her father was gone, it was certain that her days would not be easy.
But if they didn't return to Tranquil Village, they would really become homeless.
He looked at Su Zhi's hands that were red from washing the dishes and felt deflated.
”Mother, if we don't return to Tranquil Village, where else can we go?”
”As long as A Jin is willing, we can go anywhere and use our own hands to create a future that belongs to us.”
It was too hard, A Jin understood.
The first time he went to the market, he was envious of the children who were attending school and holding books. He hoped that one day, he would also be able to sit in the school and listen to the teacher's lessons.
When Nie Rufeng was here, even if his family was poor, he wouldn't dare to speak up, let alone now …
”Jin, returning to Tranquil Village is not the last resort. As long as we don't have to go back to the last resort, we can try.”
”If you work so hard, you must want to go to school, right? You are an extremely talented child, and you will definitely become a great person in the future. After you learn it, you will have your own thoughts and thoughts. At that time, you might even be able to get into the top scholar and have great accomplishments. ”
As A Jin listened to her narration, she began to see vague blueprints appearing in her mind.
After thinking for a long time, he finally raised his head, met Su Zhi's probing gaze, and sincerely replied, ”Mother, let's not go back to Tranquil Village anymore.”
Su Zhi nodded with a smile. Such a decision was exactly what she wanted.
