Chapter 629: Give Them a Straightforward Answer
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Su Wen could assist the elderly household grandpa, making it unkind of her to ignore Chen Guihua, regardless of any past grievances. Even if there is resentment between them, Zhuangzhuang is innocent.
Children have a way of softening one’s heart.
Despite the substantial support from headquarters, there seemed to be hesitation, a reluctance to fully commit, perhaps due to the involvement of a child.
“The ones who stayed behind seem to have a conscience now. What are we supposed to do?”
“Indeed, give us a straightforward answer.”
In the end, fewer than twenty people remained in the courtyard. Su Wen turned to find familiar faces—He Yulan’s husband, Xu Xiangdong, and Sister Chrysanthemum, Su Xueyong, the household grandpa.
Su Xueyong noticed Su Wen’s gaze and smiled sheepishly.
Unlike Su Xueqiang and Su Xuewu, he wasn’t as bold.
“On behalf of Chen Guihua and Zhuangzhuang, I want to express gratitude to everyone. Tomorrow, our brigade headquarters will arrange transportation for them. Once they return, they won’t be able to go back home immediately, so we’ll prepare a dormitory for the mother and son. However, they have no funds on hand, and they still need to sustain themselves.”
Li Youcai explained the challenges. Those who stayed behind contributed what they could—this family provided cornmeal, others gave vegetables, and collectively, they offered oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, rice, and noodles.
Individually, the contributions might seem modest, but together, they ensured Chen Guihua and her son would have sustenance for three months.
Despite the hardships, the generosity was evident. Everyone present, being from rural backgrounds, faced financial constraints. The collective effort, though seemingly small, held great meaning.
Observing the people gathered, Su Wen felt the warmth within. Many had strained relations with Chen Guihua due to her lazy disposition. Sister Chrysanthemum, for instance, a shop owner and competitor, had quarrelled with her countless times. Yet, she stayed to contribute significantly, emphasizing unity in adversity.
Even the five guarantees household grandpa, who refrained from using a 2.5 dollar electricity meter, offered his vegetable garden for their use upon return. He was very generous, especially for someone with limited assets.
In the Trinity village, where Su Wen had encountered sneers, insults, and betrayals, this moment revealed warmth, mutual assistance, and a sense of unity. Despite any flaws, she couldn’t harbour hatred at this moment.
The donated items, ordinary as they were, held immense value to ordinary people, symbolizing pure sincerity.
Su Wen was moved. Suddenly, her left hand was grasped, fingers intertwining—a familiar aura. Without thinking, she recognized the touch.
“Don’t dwell on it. Let’s contribute more.” Sighing, her husband expressed his kindness. Zhou Hengyang, indifferent, felt no boundless love or selfless dedication. He didn’t know what his wife found so touching.
But Zhou Hengyang was certainly not going to reveal his true thoughts. He kept his true thoughts concealed, allowing his wife to see only his brighter side.
