She knows her daughter better than her husband.

Although Lin Jianxue sometimes looks weak, she is actually very stubborn.

At this moment, looking at his daughter's calm yet resolute eyes, Shen Wu knew in his heart that his daughter's decision to go to the countryside was probably not a spur-of-the-moment decision, but a decision made after careful consideration.

Seeing his wife remained silent for a long time and was still eating the cake leisurely, Lin Yuefeng became even more furious and turned his attention to her: "Hey, I'm talking to you! You're still eating! Is that how you eat cake? You should persuade her quickly! This kid is really driving me crazy!"

Chen Wu put down the small fork in her hand and raised her head. A gentle but scrutinizing gaze fell on her daughter's face. She asked softly, "Xiaoxue, tell me the truth, why did you suddenly want to go to the countryside? And to such a faraway place like Heilongjiang Province? Was it... because of what your friends in the literary group said, or because of someone's influence?"

She subconsciously felt that perhaps it was the words of those young people in the literary group who were active in thinking and yearned for "a broad world to do great things" that influenced her daughter.

Lin Jianxue met her mother's inquiring gaze and gently shook her head: "No, Mom. No one really influenced me, nor did I listen to anyone."

"I want to see it, experience it, and live a different life."

In her previous life, the reason why she and her parents were deceived so badly by Jiang Yuqi, Jiang Yuning, Tong Caihe and the like was certainly because that family was good at disguise.

But another factor that cannot be ignored is that their own affluent living conditions have become an invisible barrier.

Their family, especially herself, grew up in the "ivory tower" built by her father's factory compound and her mother's school. The world they were exposed to was too clean and too narrow.

Accustomed to the friendliness and respect of the people around him, he thought that everyone in the world should be like this. He knew almost nothing about the complexity of the lower society and the sinister nature of human hearts. This gave the Jiang family an opportunity to take advantage of him.

She didn't want to be the naive Lin Jianxue anymore.

She wanted to see the wider world outside the circle of Kyoto, to come into contact with the real life of the lower class, to experience the real hardships, and to hone herself.

Lin Yuefeng frowned and looked at his stubborn daughter in front of him, feeling angry and hurt.

This girl, who had just been rescued from the wolf's den by him, was still injured, and now she was going to be sent to an even more bitter and cold place! As a father, how could he bear to let her go?

Having suffered such a great loss and injustice this time, he wanted to tie his daughter to his belt, keep her under his nose, and dote on her doubly to compensate her. How could he bear to let her jump into the unknown sea of suffering of "going to the countryside"?

He frowned and deliberately used the harshest tone to scare her: "Go to the countryside? Do you know what going to the countryside means? It's not for you to travel around! It's for you to work! Just like the fellow villagers, work from sunrise to sunset! Face to the loess and back to the sky!

In spring, we have to plant rice seedlings in the wind and sand, in summer, we have to harvest wheat in the scorching sun, in autumn, we have to rush to harvest, and in winter... Oh, in Heilongjiang Province, the temperature is dozens of degrees below zero, the ground is frozen as hard as stone, and even your eyebrows and beard will be covered with ice when you go out!

Food? We were lucky to have steamed buns made of glutinous rice flour. Most of the time, we had steamed cornbread or cornmeal porridge. If we were unlucky, we couldn't even fill our stomachs! Housing? A mud house, drafty on all sides. Sleeping at night was so cold that it hurt to the bone! And there were fleas and lice... How could you, with your delicate skin and flesh, bear it?!

He told his daughter a lot about the hardships of going to the countryside in one breath, trying to make her give up.

Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Lin Jianxue was not frightened, but instead burst out laughing.

"Dad," she said in a clear voice with a hint of coquettishness, "I know everything you said. But I'm not afraid!"

She tilted her head, looked at Lin Yuefeng with sparkling eyes, and said in a long voice: "No, there is - Dad - Dad -!"

"Besides, even if we really encounter some unsolvable difficulties, Dad, you have such a wide network of contacts, you must know someone outside! If the time comes, you can just send a telegram to me, and then you can watch your daughter really eat coarse food outside?" She blinked, "You will definitely help me deal with it, right?"
