Under Elder Meng's insistent demand, Mo Yan helplessly agreed.
It was only later that Mo Yan discovered why Elder Meng was so easily angered by a casual remark. Over twenty years ago, Elder Meng's hometown had suffered a locust plague, leaving the crops with not a grain to harvest. He had led his family, all seven of them, on a long journey to the foot of the Imperial City, and if not for the kind villagers who took them in and provided relief, all of them would have starved to death.
In the end, Elder Meng's words left a deep impression on Mo Yan, "Girl, you don't know, when someone is about to drown, even if someone else just throws them a straw, that's a huge act of kindness!"
While Mo Yan agreed wholeheartedly, she also felt ashamed of herself. She had obtained "Space" and had been actively doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, but always with some ulterior motive. Compared to Elder Meng, she indeed fell short.
