Hearing Su Zhi's sigh, A Jin stopped what she was doing.

Su Zhi shook her head and smiled faintly. "A Jin, do you still want to return to An Jing village?"

"Mother, why do you ask this?"

"Mother didn't have any other intentions. I just wanted to ask if you think it's better to return to the village or if you're willing to change the environment."

A Jin was at a loss, unconsciously moving the branch in his hand. Returning to Tranquil Village meant that they would have to live their past lives once again. The long-tongued woman next to them had cut off their heads and bullied them.

In the past, with her father here, no one would dare to touch them. Now that her father was gone, it was certain that her days would not be easy.

But if they didn't return to Tranquil Village, they would really become homeless.

He looked at Su Zhi's hands that were red from washing the dishes and felt deflated.

"Mother, if we don't return to Tranquil Village, where else can we go?"

"As long as A Jin is willing, we can go anywhere and use our own hands to create a future that belongs to us."

It was too hard, A Jin understood.

The first time he went to the market, he was envious of the children who were attending school and holding books. He hoped that one day, he would also be able to sit in the school and listen to the teacher's lessons.

When Nie Rufeng was here, even if his family was poor, he wouldn't dare to speak up, let alone now …

"Jin, returning to Tranquil Village is not the last resort. As long as we don't have to go back to the last resort, we can try."

"If you work so hard, you must want to go to school, right? You are an extremely talented child, and you will definitely become a great person in the future. After you learn it, you will have your own thoughts and thoughts. At that time, you might even be able to get into the top scholar and have great accomplishments. "

As A Jin listened to her narration, she began to see vague blueprints appearing in her mind.

After thinking for a long time, he finally raised his head, met Su Zhi's probing gaze, and sincerely replied, "Mother, let's not go back to Tranquil Village anymore."

Su Zhi nodded with a smile. Such a decision was exactly what she wanted.

"Jin doesn't have anything she likes. We can go there."

A Jin dragged her head to think about it carefully, as if recalling her memories, "I remember dad always saying that he would take us to Xuan City when we have enough money. It was just a mountain away from the capital, but it was the most bustling and bustling place apart from the imperial city. "Father also said that Xuan City is a beautiful place with the mountains and the waters. It is the Yi family without the many influential people in the capital."

Xuan City's territory was not under the jurisdiction of the capital, but because the two places were very close to each other, there were often endless caravans and carriages on the public roads. The place was open and fertile, and even the owners were better off than the others. It was a veritable treasure ground for crouching dragons.

Before the Great Wei, this was the capital of the former dynasty that had a few hundred years of prosperity.

Wei Gao Zu became an early stage, but resolutely gave up on this precious land and chose Jinling, which was behind a mountain, as his stronghold.

Without the suppression from the royal power, Xuan City, which had been left behind, did not become lonely. Instead, it became more prosperous.

A large number of merchants had planted their roots here, and the farmers were also willing to move here. Even after experiencing the war, Xuan City's glory had not diminished in the slightest.

Su Zhi didn't know much, but when she saw the longing in A Jin's eyes, she also began to imagine every blade of grass and tree in Xuan City.

"Then let's go to Xuan City together."

"En!"

With this hope, there was hope for a new one. Su Zhi was full of energy and made up her mind to properly settle down in Xuan City and earn money to raise children.

She listed a lot of things she would do in the future, but she forgot to consider whether or not she should find a stepfather for Little Dou Bao and the rest.

As far as she was concerned, as a man, it was not as if he could not continue living his life. He did not need to find people to work with to live his life together.

A moment before noon, the tightly shut gates opened once more, and a wave of noise rushed into the barracks.

The soldiers who went to hunt returned with seven or eight goats, a dozen wild boars, and dozens of pheasants.

Before she left, Su Zhi requested that she bring back some wild fruits and some ferns.

Although the generals did not understand, they still agreed.
