After moving, everything was progressing smoothly.
After spending some money to buy some things, he arranged for Ikuma and Hatsuying to go to school.
Although Chuying and Ikoma were not very happy with Lin Yu's arrangement, they could only obediently go to school under the pressure of Lin Yu, Keiko, and the others.
Originally, Keiko and Uei had also planned this before. After all, the profession of steam craftsmen could be considered an iron rice bowl in today's world.
If it wasn't for the fact that he didn't have any money at that time, he would have sent the three of them to the academy long ago.
It was just that Lin Yu encountered a slight obstacle from Keiko and Uei when he was planning his future.
"Lin Yu, our family is running a small business every day. It's not like we can't support ourselves. If you have this opportunity, why don't you go to the academy with Ikuma and the others?”
" That's right, Lin Yu. You asked Ikuma and the others to go, but you refused. This is obviously a good thing. The path of a warrior is really not that easy to walk…"
Looking at Keiko and Uei, who were sitting in front of him with serious expressions and earnestly persuading him, Lin Yu's heart was filled with helplessness.
This couple, who had always treated him like their own child, began to teach him earnestly when they found out that Lin Yu refused to go to the academy.
They kept persuading him to go to school and learn about steam machinery.
Lin Yu's talent in swordsmanship was very strong in the eyes of the two of them, but they did not want him to take this path that required him to take risks and fight.
Steam craftsmen were not treated as well as warriors, but they were safer.
No elder would want their child to be in danger all the time.
Moreover, the treatment of warriors was very good, but if there was any danger, or if Kabane attacked, the warriors would have to rush to the front line.
It was self-evident how dangerous Kabane was.
When they thought of the possibility that Lin Yu would fight Kabane in the future, the two of them disagreed with each other.
Moreover, even if Lin Yu was talented, it was not easy to become a warrior under the ruling class like the Fujiwara family.
In this era, all the warriors of the main family were usually selected from the relatives of the subordinates or the retainers. This way, they could maintain the greatest loyalty to the main family.
Otherwise, they would choose some talented orphans from a young age. There was almost no hope for them like Lin Yu.
When Uei said that Lin Yu might become a samurai of the Fujiwara family, it was just that he did not want to dampen his enthusiasm.
However, what these two people were thinking was completely different from Lin Yu.
Putting aside the danger of fighting Kabane, Lin Yu would never become a warrior under the ruler.
Lin Yu had the system. Although he did not have the ambition to unify the world, he could not submit to others.
With the help of the system, even if this world was filled with Kabanet, it would be a piece of cake.
How could he be someone else's subordinate? This was complete nonsense.
"Aunty Keiko, Uncle Uei, you're thinking too much. My goal is not to become a samurai. I just want to obtain the power to protect myself in this chaotic world.”
"It's enough as long as I can protect myself, protect you, Ikuma, and Hatsukura.”
Lin Yu shook his head gently, his tone filled with indescribable determination.
"Besides, I'm not interested in steam machinery. Since I'm talented in swordsmanship, I'd better specialize in one. Otherwise, it would be too wasteful, wouldn't it?”
Shangjing was silent. As someone who had watched Lin Yu grow up, he was already clear about this child's personality.
Just like how he suddenly said he wanted to practice swordsmanship back then, from that day onwards, no matter how tired or hungry he was, or how bad the weather was, he would continue practicing without stopping.
Once this child made a decision, he would never waver.
When Keiko saw this, she wanted to say something more, but a palm pressed down on her shoulder.
"Shangjing, quickly persuade this child…"
Keiko turned around and saw that Uei's expression was exceptionally serious. His bright eyes were filled with seriousness.
"Lin Yu, have you really decided?”
Lin Yu smiled. The Keiko couple knew Lin Yu well, so did he.
Although Uei was usually a henpecked husband, he still had the final say in the family's major matters.
"Uncle Shangjing, I've already thought it through.”
After receiving Lin Yu's affirmative answer, Uei was silent for a long time. He reached out and patted Lin Yu's shoulder forcefully before pulling Keiko up from the side.
"The child has his own thoughts. We shouldn't get too involved. I believe in Lin Yu.”
It was a short sentence, but it was filled with deep concern and trust.
After listening to her husband's words, Keiko pursed her lips. Although her eyes were still filled with worry, she did not persuade him any further and only solemnly reminded him.
"Lin Yu, no matter what, we hope that you can live on in this world safely. This is our only wish.”
"I know, Aunty Keiko. This is what I've been working hard for.”
