Ni Cuihua is a bona fide country folk, deeply influenced by the tradition of favoring males over females, and has received no formal education from childhood.

As a child, her days were filled with picking pigweed and toiling in the collective farm to earn work points.

However, such conditions were not unique to Ni Cuihua. Many rural women her age were illiterate.

Some have even never stepped foot outside their county their entire life.

Read the alphabet?

Ni Cuihua was taken aback at first, then bursted out laughing, “At my age? Learn to read?”

Illiteracy was a significant problem and incredibly inconvenient.

Every time Ni Cuihua held out a stack of papers to ask Ni Yang which were important and which could be thrown away, it tugged at Ni Yang’s heartstrings.

Especially in the advanced information-technology era, being illiterate was practically paralyzing.

If she was going to relive her life, Ni Yang wanted to change not only herself but also her mother.

She was determined to help Ni Cuihua become a little better than before.

“You have to learn,” insisted Ni Yang very seriously. “Mom, you’re only thirty-six. There’s no limit to what your future can hold. Being illiterate is a laughing matter out there.”

At that, Ni Cuihua was dumbfounded.

Did her future truly hold unlimited possibilities?

Back in the countryside, everyone was illiterate so she didn’t feel out of place. But ever since she arrived in Beijing and started interacting with the local villagers, Ni Cuihua had come to realize her own shortcoming.

Like when that disdainful woman, Wang Jinfang, from the village covertly ridiculed her for being an illiterate, she didn’t even know what being an illiterate meant… _{freeωebnovēl.c૦m}

And she had just laughed along with everyone else.

It wasn’t until much later that she found out illiterate meant not knowing how to read or write, being uneducated.

Thinking about this, the smile on Ni Cuihua’s face gradually faded. Looking up at Ni Yang, she asked, “Yangyang, can I still learn now?”

With such an outstanding daughter, she as a mother must not hinder her progress.
