The Lin Family.
Chen Shulan finished dinner and sat in the courtyard, watching Daya and Tie Dan play. She looked at her two children with immense satisfaction.
She wasn't a very cultured person, but both of her children had been sent to the commune's primary school to study. For Chen Shulan, this was a matter of great pride.
After all, very few families in the entire village were willing to spend that kind of money.
"Daya, Tie Dan, you two need to listen up. Ma sent you to the school in the commune, so you have to make me proud."
'She was counting on her son and daughter to be successful so she could enjoy a comfortable life in her old age!'
Lin Daya and Lin Tie Dan were long used to this, so they both gave a perfunctory reply.
"Don't worry, Ma. I'll definitely make you proud."
Lin Tie Dan's eyes were fixed on the toy in his hands, his tone sounding just like he was shouting a slogan.
