In just a short while, all three hundred or so people had finished registering, and only then did Tang Xiuwen enter the territory.
As soon as he stepped into the territory, he saw a group of people gathered in the corner.
Their eyes were red, some still glistening with tears; it was obvious they'd all had a hard cry.
Tang Xiuwen quietly averted his gaze and said directly, "Now that I've brought you all to Hope Village, my task is complete. From here, whether you want to go out and find lodging or stay here in the territory is up to you—it's your freedom now. I hope you'll get used to Hope Village soon and find your footing here."
He was genuinely relieved that they could finally start a new life.
He hoped Hope Village would become a place they'd learn to love, too.
Hearing Tang Xiuwen's words, everyone was moved.
Yeah! From now on, they were finally stepping into a new life!
As freedmen!
Sniff, sniff… just thinking about it made them want to cry again.
