Red Scarf Girl Continue

Ji-li Jiang must be going through so much.
She such a good daughter and older sister.
The kids had no right to make fun of her because of her family background.
Song po-po really wanted to help them after what happened.
They must be happy to know that their dad came home but sad after they found out that he's not staying at home.

Did it bother JI-li Jiang that she had to stay home and help the family?
How did she feel when she found out that her family owns over 33 hundred acres of land and lots of business?
Why couldn't her father stayed home he was free of charge?
Why didn't Song po-po look at Ji-li Jiang family differently?
