Then, the Master continued to explain to Xia Chuyi, "More than twenty years ago, my family wanted to be with soone else, but I refused and left ho with your Master Father to fend for ourselves."
"For several years after that, I didn’t communicate with my family."
"Later on, I thought about going back to look for soone, but..."
Master sighed deeply and said, "As a result, it almost got your Master Father thrown into a labor reform camp."
"In order to avoid disaster, we moved to City G with your Master Father."
Master looked off into the distance and fell silent for a while.
She then continued, "To tell you the truth, I never planned on returning to Capital City... partly because I was ashad, and partly because I didn’t know if the past events would recur."
Xia Chuyi understood what Master ant.
She silently nodded, thinking to herself: No wonder my Master Father hid in this little alley, running a small noodle shop to barely make ends et.
While Xia Chuyi was reflecting on the past in her heart.
She heard Master speak with a tone full of emotion, "However, now that Xiu Zhi is still alive, I must go back and see her..."
"Because it’s probably just the two of us left in our family."
Master’s words carried a hint of sadness.
Xia Chuyi then said, "The past is the past, the future will definitely be better."
Her tone was incredibly resolute.
Hearing this, Master imdiately smiled and said, "Good, you are a student from Kyoto University, what you say must be right."
Master said this clearly trying to lighten the mood.
However, Xia Chuyi seriously told the Master, "Believe , our future will definitely be better."
Seeing her so earnest, Master’s expression softened as she said, "Yes, the future will definitely be better."
After saying this, the two looked at each other.
Then, they both silently smiled.
After finishing the conversation with Master, Xia Chuyi was called by Old Sir Guan to learn skills.
"Now that the conditions are not sufficient, you can start by learning to make noodles with ," Old Sir Guan told her.
"Making noodles?" Xia Chuyi was a bit surprised.
She had thought her Master Father would start her off with nial tasks like washing vegetables, washing dishes, or kneading dough, as he had done in her past life.
Seeing Xia Chuyi’s surprise, Old Sir Guan’s face darkened imdiately and he said, "If you despise it, then don’t learn at all!"
"Not at all, not at all!" Xia Chuyi quickly replied, "I just thought you would start teaching from the very ’basics.’"
Unexpectedly, Old Sir Guan seed to understand her intention and, furrowing his brows, he told her, "You already have a good foundation, why start from the basics?"
