"Besides, the money you He Family borrowed, it’s not like you are so rich that you’re scared there’s no place to spend it and thus sending the two girls to school.

What’s the point? One is a daughter-in-law, one is a daughter, one is already married in, of course, the important thing is to have a child.

The other is anyways going to be married to someone else’s family.

Spending this unjust money, I really don’t understand what’s wrong with your brain, He Zhongguo. "

"Why do all of you care about our family affairs? Your own daughter doesn’t have the ability to get into a university, are you upset with us because we can?

Going to work in a factory is considered capable?

When I get to college and graduate, I’ll easily outperform them!

When I’m capable, I will honor my father and let him enjoy his fortune. What about it? Does it offend you?"

He Dongxue could not bear it anymore, and retorted a few words right back, "Your daughters might be outsiders in your eyes, but the daughters of the He family will always be our own. No matter where I marry to in the future, my father will always be my father! This place will always be my He Dongxue’s home! "

"That’s right! Dongxue is right! Don’t listen to these people!

" The auntie from the grocery store cheered He Dongxue on, "I heard you want to be a doctor? Being a doctor is good, being capable is good, having a good job is good! Auntie thinks, having a capable daughter is also a kind of blessing for the parents! In the future, if my daughter gets into university, even if I have to sell everything, I’ll support her! "

"Auntie, you are the one who understands! Our young people’s thinking cannot be the same as some old antiques.

So, some people who don’t consider their own daughters as family will never enjoy the blessings of their daughters in their lifetime.

" He Zhilan continued, casting a meaningful glance at those old wives who hoped that the He family would not sponsor her and He Dongxue’s education.

He Zhilan just doesn’t understand why there are always these people who like to meddle in other people’s affairs and especially can’t stand it when other families have good things happening.

"Dear sisters, this is my He Family’s business.

Though my He family is poor, we have never borrowed money from you.

There is no need for you to worry about our affairs.

In my heart, a daughter is also a child, there’s no difference.

If a daughter can enter university, it’s also a blessing to my He Family.

The He Family is a genuine peasant family, no one from our ancestors has ever been a scholar.

But now, with my two daughters becoming scholars, it’s also my He Zhongguo’s pride!

Even if I have to sell my blood, I will send my children to school! "

After saying that, He Zhongguo led his daughters home, "Zhilan, Dongxue, don’t listen to those old women. In your father’s eyes, you are the same as your brother, all are my children."

"Dad, you don’t need to explain. How can me and Dongxue not know? Dad is the best dad in the world, having such a good dad like you is my, He Zhilan’s, blessing!"

He Zhilan didn’t take their words to heart at all. Life is like drinking water, it feels cold or warm only to the drinker. A few words from someone else won’t make her life seem bad.

When they got home that night, He Zhongguo actually slew a small chicken, added some mushrooms picked from their own mountain, and made a clear stew. This was the best nourishing dish the He Family could make.

"You haven’t been back for a year. Your aunt missed you a lot. Tomorrow, go with Dongxue to visit your aunt in the town." He Zhongguo mentioned He Hongmei, who lived in the town, during dinner. Back during the summer vacation, He Hongmei had already asked about He Zhilan’s return.

"Alright, tomorrow morning I’ll go to aunt’s place." He Zhilan nodded in agreement.
