Transmigrated to a Period Novel as the Genius Antagonist's Birth Mother

Chapter 59: Shave

"What's the matter?" Chu Xia was feeding the puppies when she heard Cen Huai'an's words. She turned her head to look at him and asked.

The location of the puppies was very close to the house. After going back and forth, the food was still hot. Chu Xia poured some soup from the porridge into a bowl, soaked some steamed buns in it, and placed it in front of the two puppies.

The two puppies were probably very hungry, eagerly approaching the bowl and eating with their tongues, eating fiercely and anxiously.

Cen Huai'an told her about Liu Tian's situation. He couldn't tell Bangzi and the others, but he could tell his mother. His mother would tell him what to do.

After listening to Cen Huai'an's words, Chu Xia had already walked to the water basin to wash her hands. She wiped her hands with a towel and looked at Cen Huai'an's confused face in front of her. She raised her hand and touched his head.

"You didn't do anything wrong. We all sympathize with Liu Tian's situation, but you are just a child. I don't know her parents, and we can't help her. Only the teacher can help her do her parents' job, if the teacher is willing."

Chu Xia sighed. In fact, not only Liu Tian, but there were also parents in their residential building who didn't want their daughters to go to school. Outsiders could only offer some advice, but there was no other way.

If it's about financial support, how can so many people afford it? Besides, no one is wealthy at the moment. It's already good enough if they can support their own families, let alone provide support to others.

Chu Xia wouldn't suggest sponsoring Liu Tian either. They had no personal relationship, and if she said she wanted to support her, people would think she's being sick in the head. Liu Tian's parents wouldn't appreciate it either; they would only think she was meddling.

Because Liu Tian's parents were workers, it was impossible for them not to afford their child's tuition. They just didn't want their child to go to school.

Getting involved in other people's family affairs in this situation would only cause trouble for oneself. Chu Xia was not a savior; she couldn't save everyone, and she didn't want to be a savior.

In this era, there were so many out-of-school children all over the country. No one had the power to save everyone, not even the country itself. Just like compulsory education in the future, there were still children who were not allowed to go to school despite the exemption of tuition and miscellaneous fees.

Chu Xia said to Cen Huai'an, "We can help within our capabilities, like saving these two puppies today. Don't burden yourself with things that are beyond our abilities. An'an, you comforted Liu Tian today and told her to find the teacher, which is already very good."

If it were the previous Cen Huai'an, he wouldn't even bother to check when he hears crying, let alone tell her to ask a teacher for help.

Now, An'an's heart is no longer filled with resentment. He himself hasn't realized it, but there is already love in his heart.

Chu Xia is very pleased with his current appearance. After all, she slowly nurtured him into this state.

An'an nodded, feeling much better about his pent-up emotions.

After eating, Cen Huai'an went to play with the puppies and wanted to touch them, but Chu Xia stopped him.

"They are dirty now, probably with bugs and fleas. You shouldn't touch them for now."

Cen Huai'an could only retract his hand and ask Chu Xia, "Then, Mom, when can I touch them?"

"Wait until I give them a flea treatment."
