?Chapter 426: Chapter 426 Returning to One’s Roots Chapter 426: Chapter 426 Returning to One’s Roots Su Laoqi naturally had brothers and sisters, but two of them hadn’t survived, and another had passed away the year before last.

He was the youngest in the family.

He was over thirty now, and his parents had passed away long ago.

He had two children, and the level of poverty in the village was much the same.

But last year, when his eldest son went to school, the school was hosting a sports day, and naturally, sports day required wearing sneakers. His straw sandals would not allow him to run alongside the other students, and he would also be laughed at.

The school sports day was held once every three years, and for their commune, it was considered quite a large event. The teacher required all competing students to buy sneakers.

However, if one genuinely could not afford to buy them, then they would have to forgo participation and give their place to another student. His eldest son was particularly athletically gifted; as soon as he could walk, he would run through the fields every day, and he was the fastest – just like a monkey. During the school selection, he was the fastest runner too.

Even so, the entire village couldn’t scrape together enough money to buy a pair of sneakers for the boy.

It was only later, when relatives visited his second eldest brother, that they loaned him two yuan, which he added to the pot to buy his son a pair of sneakers.
