Chapter 22: Aunt

Lotus\''s voice echoed with unwavering resolve and tranquility.

段莲的声音很坚定，也很平静。

Yet, her aunt\''s reaction was vigorous. \"My dear, have you lost your senses? You spurn the wide-open road of opportunity and stubbornly choose to traverse some broken, rugged mountain path! As someone who has swallowed this bitter pill, I understand the naive optimism of youth, believing that they can amass wealth on their own and that diligence and hard work can reshape destiny. But only through life\''s trials do you comprehend the despair of impossible reversal, the profound silence when your pleas to the heavens fall on deaf ears and the earth offers no comfort.

In essence, you\''re saying: \''I aspire to be worthless, disabled, and unproductive.\''

你的那些话翻译成我的版本就是：我想变成垃圾，我想变成垃圾，我想变成残疾人，我想变成残疾人。

然后遇到了高门贵子，出生富贵，才貌双全的风流人物。

Upon laying eyes on you, He falls in love with you at first sight, vowing to stay by your side through life\''s highs and lows.
