After Escaping Famine, Three-Year-Old Fu Bao Became Everyone’s Favorite

During the famine, a sack of grain was traded for a little girl. Everyone thought the family had lost their minds.

But ever since they adopted little Qingtian, it was as if their lives had be...

Chapter 178 It’s just an empty shell

She was now finally breaking free from the shadows of those years, and finally stopped thinking about where her family had fled to and whether they were safe.

But why does someone have to disrupt her life?

Could it be that she owed her father too much in her previous life, so she had to repay him one by one in this life?

"I really don't mean anything else..." Mr. Cen was shocked by Mrs. Ye's complex look of sadness and helplessness, and his words were much softer than before.

"I just think that it's fate that we met. I can help you find some work in the future, and I guarantee that your life will be many times better than it is now."

"No need, we are living well now." Mrs. Ye remained unmoved.

Mr. Cen immediately became anxious, and then he couldn't help but glance at Boss Ye out of the corner of his eye.

He thought to himself, didn’t you say that soft words would be effective?

Weren’t the words I just said gentle enough?

Boss Ye winked at him helplessly, but Boss Cen couldn't understand what he was saying at all.

Mrs. Ye had already taken a step towards him and saw the exchange of glances between the two.

She held her daughter in her arms and deliberately asked, "Qingtian, tell me, what did your father say to this grandfather just now?"

"How can you call me grandpa? Isn't that a generation difference?" Old Cen protested in a low voice.

But Mrs. Ye ignored it.

Elder Cen looked at the clear sky and thought, Mr. Jiang had said before that this child was only four years old, what could he possibly remember? Wasn't that a useless question?

Unexpectedly, when Qingtian opened his mouth, he actually repeated their conversation from beginning to end.

Although it is not word for word, there is absolutely no mistake in the meaning.

Elder Cen looked at Qingtian in surprise and asked, "Is the child already enlightened at such a young age?"

"No, she has had a good memory since she was a child. She can remember everything others say." Mrs. Ye looked at Qingtian proudly and smiled at her.

Qingtian spoke first, "Mom said she would save money to send me to a girls' school. Then I would be able to read and write."

Mr. Cen had some knowledge of women's education, but some people wanted to follow the West and allow both boys and girls to go to school.

However, due to the differences between men and women, they could not be allowed to attend the same academy at the same time, so they submitted a memorial to the emperor and finally a girls' school was built.

A few years passed, and the girls' school could only accept a few students every year. There were often students who would ask to go home and never come back after studying for a few days.

So the so-called women's school is actually just an empty shell, used just to fool outsiders.
