So the mother and daughter hugged their backpack and moved their clothes to Da Lat land.

Occasionally, Nhung would go to the garden to watch the vegetable beds grow lushly each day by herself. Or watch the hand-made wooden furniture that is not excellent, but the feeling of happiness is indescribable. The scenery around the Nhung house is a valley, surrounded by pine forests. In the morning, the clouds filled the way, the birds sang the sky, the cool air made people’s moods softer and lighter.
