Chapter 975 A Marriage

Probably it was fate. Jervis walked on the ridge in the countryside, looked at the vegetable garden, and saw someone choppingcabbages with a machete, so he walked over.

He also wanted to experience the pastoral life.

After all, how could there be such a strong rural vibe in Kenison City, where everyone lived a fast-paced life in an urbanizedspace?

Unexpectedly, as he drew nearer, he saw that the person who was chopping the cabbage was Mia.

She had been wearing a water-green jacket in the morning, and now she wore a black and red checked smock. Perhaps it wasbecause she was afraid of getting her clothes dirty.

Jervis stood aside, inexplicably distressed, but did not speak.

Mia, who was chopping the cabbage, picked up a cabbage and put it in the basket. As she turned around, she finally noticedJervis was standing behind her.

She couldn't help being taken aback for a moment. She then smiled with a naive look.

But she didn't speak, turned back, and continued picking up cabbages.

"Do you want to go back to school?"

Jervis asked a question.

Mia, who was chopping the cabbage, froze slightly. Then, she straightened up, turned to Jervis, and put down the machete. Sheraised her hands and gestured. "I'm dumb. My mother said it was a waste of money for me to go to school. | have no promises inthe future."

"| heard that you went to high school before. How was your performance?" Jervis asked.

Mia lowered her head and pressed her lips with a depressed and complicated expression.

Then, she raised her hands and gestured. "| was admitted to high school as the number one in the town. My family had nomoney. The school teachers also thought | had no way out, even if | could be enrolled in a university because | am dumb, andthey didn't insist on my education."

Although universities could accept the dumb now, a dumb graduate didn't have a bright future or a way out.

Of course, some dumb people stood out, but they had to work a hundred times harder than normal people to get a good job anda bright future.

"Do you want to study?" Jervis sympathized with Mia's experience.

As alittle girl under the age of 18, she had to be busy with housework. Even though her hands were full of frostbite, she nevercomplained of pain.

In the prime of life, she shoulat school. Pleasecnsaéthe originalcea Senpnercsean
