Chapter 19: New Hope
第十九章：新的希望
On the way to the city, Mother asked me, "What do you want to do in the future?"
在去城里的路上，母亲问我："你以后想做什么？"
I thought for a moment and said, "I want to write something, record the stories of my hometown, record the lives of the villagers."
我想了想，说："我想写一些东西，记录下故乡的故事，记录下乡亲们的生活。"
Mother said, "Good, I will definitely read the articles you write."
母亲说："好，你写的文章，我一定会看的。"
I smiled and said, "Okay."
我笑着说："好。"
Yes, I want to write. I want to write the stories of my hometown, write the story of Run Tu, write the stories of those farmers. I want to let more people know that there are still many people in this society living very difficult lives, that there are still many unfair places in this society.
是的，我要写。我要写故乡的故事，写闰土的故事，写那些农民的故事。我要让更多的人知道，这个社会还有很多人生活得很困难，这个社会还有很多不公平的地方。
Perhaps, my articles cannot change anything, but at least, I can record these stories and let more people know.
也许，我的文章不能改变什么，但是至少，我可以记录下这些故事，让更多的人知道。
This is my new hope.
这就是我的新的希望。
