"First, I want to make a self-criticism, the decision to buy apples yesterday was impulsive of me."
Pei Ziheng, such a bright child, immediately guessed what was up when he heard Shen Mingzhu's words, "Mom, did the villagers give you a hard time?"
Shen Mingzhu tapped her son's nose and didn't sugarcoat the reality just because he was young.
In her view, this incident was not only a lesson but also a cautionary tale for Pei Ziheng to understand the complexity of society and the wickedness of human hearts, so as not to be too indiscriminately kind like her in the future.
Pei Ziheng said, "Mom, you're overthinking, it's already quite something that I don't turn out to be a bad guy, being a good person, that's impossible in this lifetime."
After hearing about Shen Mingzhu's encounter in Red Star Village, Pei Ziheng immediately comforted her tenderly, "Mom, it's not your fault, those people are the bad ones, selfish and ungrateful."
