Mu Yi'an, a teacher at an agricultural school, in her thirties, unmarried, nearly expelled from her family by her biological mother.
Jiang Shuyun, a high school political teacher, in her ...
Jiang Shuwen was happy to learn that his parents were moving to the county town. It would be much more convenient for him to visit them now that they were closer.
In the past year or two, he has also noticed that the villagers, especially the clansmen, have changed a lot.
My second brother and sister-in-law have come a long way; their lives cannot be ruined.
It wasn't until the tenth day of the lunar month that many horse-drawn carriages arrived in the village and stopped at the Jiang family's old house. Only then did everyone realize that the Jiang family was moving to the county town.
"How can you just move out like that? This is our ancestral home. Don't you care about your ancestors?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by abandoning our ancestors? The county town isn't far away, so we can still worship our ancestors without any problems, and the ancestral graves haven't been disturbed."
Wang's cousin, who is also the current village chief, rebuked them, saying, "What are you all?"
The village chief, the clan chief, and my great-grandfather have all come over. They've already discussed it and decided that the whole village will hire a teacher and the school will not be closed.
"Shuyun is a dutiful daughter to her parents. She bought them a house in the county so they could enjoy their old age. What nonsense are you spouting?"
"In the future, if you have the ability, you can go not only to the county seat, but also to the prefectural city. No one will say you've forgotten your ancestors."
The third grandfather glanced at the people gathered around the courtyard. Many of the clansmen had expressions of frustration on their faces, but the people from other villages seemed no different, and many were happy for Ziwen.
Is there anything better than having a successful and filial son?
They would be happy if their descendants did the same.
"If Shuheng leaves too, what will happen to the school? The children still need to study."
"Ziwen lent the school to the village free of charge. We will hire a new teacher so that the children's education can continue."
After the new gentleman arrived, Shuheng left.
After Grandpa San explained the situation, everyone started helping to move the things.
There's no need to move any furniture or anything; the new yard already has everything.
Many hands make light work, and in no time, the goods were all moved. The carriage left, leaving behind a cloud of dust and people with their own thoughts.
