The hardest ones to teach are those who have never been to school and are a bit older, so their memory is not that good. She needs to be very patient.
"Nian Nian, we work in the fields every day, what's the point of learning this word?"
"Of course it helps. Think about it, if you are asked to sign something in the future, how can you succeed if you can't even write your own name?"
The aunt who was speaking felt her face flushed.
