“Why?” Gu Zi hugged his leg, her voice soft and curious.

Su Shen straightened up, his tall frame casting a shadow over her as he blocked the sunlight. “Whether our parents’ generation was rich or poor wasn’t a choice they had. Not every era had the opportunity for reform and openness, and we didn’t always live in peaceful and stable times,” he explained.

Su Shen understood the value of peace better than most. He knew that it was a rare and precious commodity. For a country to prosper and its people to be happy, a peaceful environment was a necessity.

Unfortunately, since the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the fate of the country had been tumultuous. Now, it seemed like things were finally settling down. In their parents’ time, given the national circumstances, most people lived in poverty, and they had little chance of escaping it. It wasn’t due to a lack of effort, but rather the country’s need for development.

Gu Zi couldn’t help but ask, “So, do you believe our country will prosper in the future?”

Su Shen replied confidently, “Why not? Most of our parents were ordinary people, and we don’t expect them to provide us with much. They couldn’t even if they wanted to. But our generation lives in a time filled with opportunities. We can work hard and create better lives for ourselves. There’s no reason to doubt our country’s potential for prosperity.”

A smile spread across Gu Zi’s face as the worries that had clouded her mind since Aunt Yang’s ordeal began to dissipate. “You have such wisdom, Su Shen. It’s no wonder you’ve risen above adversity. I’m truly grateful that I had the chance to meet you,” she said.

Gu Zi resonated with Su Shen’s perspective. The fate of a nation had a profound impact on the destinies of families and every citizen. Family and country were intricately connected, and their fortunes were often intertwined. When the country thrived, so did its people. Sometimes, personal abilities couldn’t overcome the constraints of poverty. freewebnøvel.coɱ
