Regarding Mrs. Wang's literacy, Shuangshuang always felt that her mother must have come from an extraordinary background, at the very least she should have been a child of a scholar's family, only then would she have had the opportunity to learn to read. However, she did not understand why her mother ended up being sold as a slave.
But Mrs. Wang never mentioned her past, only saying that she had forgotten due to memory loss. Shuangshuang felt her mother wasn't telling the truth, but her past must have been very painful, so Shuangshuang thoughtfully never asked, and her father, Yin Zheng, understood this as well.
That aside, now that the conditions are right, this love for reading should certainly be fulfilled, and reading can also enhance one's knowledge, broaden horizons, cultivate character, and serve as a good pastime.
