Wang Hong saw that the man's refusal wasn't because he couldn't bear to leave his family, and her eyes sparkled with excitement.
"Father, we can just lease our land to someone else to farm," she said. "All they have to give us is ten percent of the crops, and they can keep the rest. I bet no one would refuse that."
Seeing her husband wavering, Wang Hong continued, "Look at our three kids, how happy they are when they come here. Every time I see other children with their families, it makes me think of our own.
Besides, if we stay in the Provincial City, our children can go to schools here. Isn't that hundreds of times better than the education they'd get in our village?
Our kids are all obedient and well-behaved. We didn't have the means before, but now we do. If the kids want to learn, we'll grit our teeth and support their education.
Who knows? Maybe our family could also have a university student one day?"
