"Lao Li, what's the situation? You have to tell me!" Yu Yihao firmly grasped Lao Li's sleeve and refused to let the other person leave. His expression was a little inexplicable. Just now he finally got caught up in the discussions of those people. Break free of yourself, I really don't understand what happened.

Lao Li turned his head and shook off the man's sleeve viciously again, his eyes were cold: "Old Yu, I have to go home to live, can you stop getting annoying?"

"Go home?" Yu Yihao couldn't care about asking himself about being chased and scolded, and blurted out, "What about the small gambling hall after you left?" He swallowed his saliva. He hadn't entered this small gambling hall for a month or so. , If he doesn't gamble, how can he turn over, how can he make the stinky lady regret it?

"Gambling hall?" Old Li sneered, looking at the fellow countryman who hadn't figured out the state of the development of the matter up to now, "No, no more! This is to ask you, ask you, how much harm has been done to us. "

Yu Yihao was dumbfounded, he stretched out his finger and pointed at himself: "Me?" What does it matter to him?

Lao Li glanced at the dazed man in front of him, he understood now, he really didn't know anything! People say that stupid people have stupid blessings, but why is this Yu Yihao stupid not blessed? He thought for a while, and he should explain the ins and outs of the matter with the other party. It can be regarded as all the friendship of the same country, and it has offset the debt that the people he helped to set up for the casino to damage his family! He opened his mouth and said.

It turned out that just half a month ago, with the news published in the newspaper and on the TV station, their small gambling hall with a small footprint also attracted the attention of everyone. Although they are in the same city, there is sunshine and sunshine after all. Darkness, for most people, the gambling in their concept is nothing more than the kind of playing mahjong and poker at home and losing a few dollars in one go. How do you know that there is such a small gambling hall just around the corner? Hovering around them, looking for an opportunity to drain their blood.

Yellow, gambling, drugs and black have always been the focus of the crackdown on public order, and this small gambling hall accounts for two.

It just happened that several big leaders of city b were in the preparatory activities. They immediately followed the news on TV and the evening newspaper and organized a crackdown on gambling, and made every effort to wipe out the current underground gambling halls in city b. The criminal forces in the gambling hall have even cleaned up, and the small gambling hall they have been in all the year round is the center of the storm and the most important activity.

Lao Li was lucky. He was not too involved in the gambling hall, that is, he introduced Yu Yihao in at the beginning. He was at most a middleman, but all the black-hearted money earned in the gambling hall over the years was returned. Some He spent it or sent it home, and wrote an IOU directly to the gambling hall, but after all he saved his freedom and life. The boss and several supervisors on the gambling hall have been put in the detention center and waited. The trial, I heard that every ten or eight years, has not come out.

Lao Li greeted Yu Yihao, who was dumbfounded in front of his eyes, and smiled, his smile was bitter: "Now, how can there be a small gambling hall? That restaurant has been sold out. As for me? I have to go to work to pay off the debt." He knew the truth about the high interest rate loan, but what else could he do? This was his original retribution, and he eventually harmed people.

"...How could this happen?" Yu Yihao became a little panicked. He always regarded the gambling hall as a bank. He always felt that the little money he had inputted back then was still in the gambling hall. Sooner or later he I can double and win it back, but how come the gambling hall is closed before he wins it back? He tried to grab Old Li's hand again, but he dodged him, "I've heard before that there are people at the back of our gambling hall. How could it fall so easily? Did you lie to me?"

Lao Li almost didn't get amused by what the other party said. Their gambling hall is small, so what kind of background can there be? Besides, this time the incident is so big, how could it be suppressed, he looked at Yu Yihao, with an unpredictable expression: "Believe it or not, but I suggest you to worry about yourself!"

"Worry about myself? What's wrong with me?" Yu Yihao became vague.

Lao Li patted the other party on the shoulder: "Our small gambling hall is down. In the final analysis, it's because you opened your mouth on TV to gamble at the gambling hall. This exposure is too big, and no one can hold it back. Now our restaurant is a little involved. Many of them have been arrested. Do you think people outside can let you go? Of course, they will not do things like murder and arson, but I can't promise you other things. "

"My fellow, I, the last thing I can tell you is to let you buy a few copies of the B City Evening News from the past half month. If it doesn't help, you can watch TV replays, and then run as long as you can. Go far! In city b, you can't go on!" He shook his head and walked away, walking quickly, giving Yu Yihao no chance to stop him.

Yu Yihao stood with his eyes empty, and in a blink of an eye, Old Li had disappeared. He looked at the familiar small gambling hall blankly. At this moment, someone was stepping on a ladder to remove the original lantern. With the sign of the noodle restaurant hung above, he suddenly realized that these words that sounded like a fantasy to him were definitely not made up, and he hung his head and walked out quickly.

With the experience of being blocked and scolded just now, he knew how much hatred his face could bring, and finally reached the newsstand on the side of the road with an old gentleman who was napping inside. He asked in a low voice: "Is there any evening paper from the other day? I want to buy some copies."

When he said this, the old gentleman also opened his eyes and glanced at him intently. He looked down and asked, "You want a few days, and the newspapers of the previous few days are discounted." He moved quickly and took that A stack of evening papers with a small amount of remaining newspapers was clipped out.

"...For the past half a month, give me everything if you have anything." Yu Yihao didn't care about the money anymore. He took out the small change that had been properly hidden from his pocket, and the money was fifty full. , It was given to him last time by reporter Wu of the Evening News.

The old man quickly picked out the newspaper, and after he reported the number, he folded the newspaper and handed it to him, but he just stretched out his hand a little suspiciously, and squinted his eyes. He always felt that the person in front of him became more and more familiar, and couldn't help it. Question: "How do I look at you so familiar? Where do you think you have seen it?"

When Yu Yihao heard the old gentleman say this, he panicked. He lowered his head and stuffed the money into the old gentleman's hands, and then ran away with the newspapers, without looking back, only afraid of the other person. Recognizing him, and after he left, the old gentleman thought about it for a long time, only a glimpse, did not match the face of the person in his memory.

He ran very fast, and finally ran to the corner of the unpopulated street. Then he found a slightly clean place and sat down to read the newspaper seriously. It is said that he didn’t even spend that much when he was a clothing store owner. He has read the newspaper with much thought. He thought he was looking for it for a long time, but he didn't expect that this news about him was still in the prime position, and he could see it as soon as he turned it over. But when he saw it this way, his heart sank .

For fifteen days, there were new themes in the newspaper almost every day, starting with "the **** crimes in shanty towns, everything is only because of gambling", "After reporting the crime, the failure to stop crimes is criticizing the insufficiency of the education system or the criminals are unchangeable?" , "Domestic violence: Is it the imminent gambling debt that ruined the family, or the evil nature of human nature that brought tragedy!" ... Until yesterday, the newspaper even wrote clearly in the last sentence, "The criminal Yu Xiao No. (pseudonym) will leave the detention center tomorrow. This **** crime brought him only half a month of detention."

Yu Yihao's body couldn't help but tremble, and his face was crying, rubbing his pocket. Now there are not fifty "interview fees" left, just for the fifty? Why on earth was he so excited about these fifty eyebrows that he couldn't wait to confess all his affairs, even arrogantly at the camera, he looked at the excited face in the camera, and his heart suddenly grew more and more.

He has to go, yes, he has to go!

Yu Yihao suddenly realized something. He stood up and hurriedly went home, but this time he walked, while lowering his head lower, so that people around him would never see it. He had to go home first. , Ask that stinky lady to ask for the money, as long as the money is received, he will leave immediately, with his ability, isn't he not famous in the field? Soon, he arrived at the door of the house, but he stood there, and some reaction was not very good. It was not long before he left, why the shoe cabinet at the door of the house was gone, and he didn’t even know the spring couplets posted by Shan Jingqiu on the door. Where did you go?

He suddenly realized something and turned around to run, only to find a few people behind him. Some of them were face-to-face and some looked familiar. They were the former security guards in the small gambling hall, and he recognized each other.

The one in the head smiled when he saw him: "Oh, we Mr. Yu is back, have you upset city b in the past half month?" He raised his eyebrows, "Don't worry, your wife and children are all gone. It’s been more than half a month, and this house is now rented out."

He said: "And you, just go back with us obediently."

Yu Yihao accompanied the smiling face. He knew that there was nothing to eat when he was caught back. His brain worked desperately: "No, I don't have much money with me now. I am a lazy person, and I can't help you in the future. I'm going to find my wife! She is capable and earns a lot of money. When the time comes to let her pay, you can put your heart in your stomach, I will do it! Leave it to me, it's safe!" He patted his chest Guaranteed.

The people on the opposite side could not help showing a bit of contempt at the same time. They all said that tiger poison does not eat children. This person not only eats children, but also acts on his wife. Now this thing has happened, and he plans to continue to do His ladies dragged down the water, and even they felt that they looked down, but they didn't say anything, just smiled and said: "Our boss said it, as long as you."

The reporting of this news also gave Yu Yihao's wife and children a protective umbrella. They all read it in the newspaper. The newspaper also allowed them to write to the family and report to the society to help transfer it! In case it was revealed that they had done something to a single family at this juncture, they could not end it. Yu Yihao still wanted to let them step on the pit.

Yu Yihao didn't feel right. He just saw some gaps between these people and tried to run away, but they got stuck tightly. They laughed and said, "Oh, I'm good, and I want to run. Don't worry. If you don't beat you, it's better than you treat your wife! What are you afraid of, we will be considerate of you!" Then he wrapped him and left directly.

Yu Yihao was framed, and he could see that his home was getting further and further away from him. He was in a daze in panic. It was obvious that a few years ago, he and his wife started a business and had their own store. They were respected when they went out and had money. It's never been short, and my son always looks at him with admiration... But now? Why does he have nothing? But at this moment, he still couldn't help but hate his wife. The lady was beaten when he was beaten. If he didn't call the police, could there be so many things? With hatred in his heart, if Shan Jingqiu appeared in front of him now, he might be able to pounce on the spot.

Unfortunately, he didn't know that, after that, he never had a chance to see them again.

...

Shan Jingqiu slowly opened her eyes, and next to her ear was the rumbling sound of a high-speed train. She couldn't help but twitched the corner of her mouth. The monitor that was released before had just returned, and she had clearly seen Yu Yihao's body. What happened, the boss didn’t intend to take Yu Yihao’s life, but just let him do hard work to pay off the debt, and the figure of Yu Yihao’s debts photographed by the monitor estimated that he would have to work at least half of his life to pay it back. Maybe this is because the wicked have their own wicked torment. Yu Yihao, who is addicted to gambling, probably didn't know that he would end up like this.

Shan Jingqiu gathered the child she was holding, Yu Yanze was still asleep, and Lin Xiufang beside her was dozing off with Teng Xiangling in her arms. The trains of this age are going to be a little bit more boring than she thought, and she wants her to do it. There is also a bit of backache, but the scenery passing by the window is as fast as the fast-moving train as if it is driving towards a new future.

When she was still living in the hospital that day, Lin Xiufang hugged Teng Xiangling to the door. She waited to see Xiangling go out and cried to her. Shan Jingqiu stopped tears before comforting her and hesitated. It took a long time to tell Shan Jingqiu that she wanted a divorce, but there was still some hesitation between her eyes.

This really surprised Shan Jingqiu. After all, if Lin Xiufang hadn't been too shocked by Shan Jingqiu's death in her previous life, she had never thought about divorce. She once had some ideas and planned to talk to Lin Xiufang after she was discharged from the hospital. , But I didn't expect that after watching the news on TV, the other party was more impacted than in the previous life, and directly decided to divorce.

Shan Jingqiu did not hesitate, and directly proposed to the other party the idea of ​​starting a business in s city together. Lin Xiufang also chose to agree after hesitating. After completing the divorce procedures with Teng's father, she also decisively left her home. The scattered little things sold out, and he chose to leave in the dumbfounded eyes of Father Teng, without looking back.

After a long journey for the two families, the train finally stopped at the S city railway station. The station was crowded with people. The people who got off the train were crowded together, crowded with people, like an amazingly dense crowd. Like canned sardines.

"Mom, you have to be careful not to be hit by anyone." Yu Yanze said to his mother while pulling his throat. He stretched out his small hand and tried to push the person who was squeezing his mother away a little bit, so that they would not come and squeeze. mom.

And Teng Xiangling next to her was different. She was a little afraid of life, but the astonishing noise of just getting off the train frightened her. She asked her to subconsciously cover her ears and tightly shrink in her mother's arms, if not Because there is Yu Yanze next to him for comparison, I guess I can cry directly.

While standing in front of Lin Xiufang, Shan Jingqiu sighed in her heart. They were also two children who were shrouded in childhood, but they showed completely different developments because of their personalities.

What Teng Xiangling had from elementary school was obedience. In her heart, she was dissatisfied with her father, but she had more fear. She wanted to run, but didn’t want to face it. She always showed a passive resistance to the outside world, towards strangers. Full of resistance, in fact, she was not afraid of life, but because she was afraid of being hurt, she chose to abandon all foreign elements first.

But Yu Yanze is different. Maybe because he is a boy, maybe because Yu Yihao is even less human. His character occasionally shows a bit of extreme tendency besides being strong. He dares to face it and is not afraid of hurting, but if someone gives If he hurts, he will want to fight back fiercely. Now that he is young, he can't see the extreme appearance. You may guess that in the future, even if he has a gentle appearance, he will have a sharp heart.

Therefore, in the future of the last world, the two children also took different paths. One chose to escape. As long as she no longer encountered domestic violence, she tried to tell herself that everything was over, but the other resisted desperately. , I want to prove, I want to give someone like Yu Yihao a due retribution.

"Jingqiu, what do you think we are going to do?" After finally getting out of the crowd, because the two of them dressed plainly, even those soliciting guests did not like them. Lin Xiufang hesitated as soon as he took a breath He looked at Shan Jingqiu.

In the last life, she was forced to the end, so she also used her own hard work to break out of the world, but in this life, with neighbors who depended on each other by her side, she also subconsciously gave birth to a bit of dependence, hoping to get some information from the other party. Guiding the way forward.

Shan Jingqiu had long thought about it clearly before he chose s city. The more convenient the development, the more opportunities there will be. Especially in this era, the economy is going up at a rapid pace, and you can break out if you find the right time.

"Let’s find a small house first..." She touched the money in her pocket. The money was enough to be the earliest source of fortune. She led the people behind to the intermediary near the train station, of course at this time. The intermediary is nothing more than a few intermediary walls, how can there be a lot of shops for later generations.

"Then we are going to work in the future?" Lin Xiufang was a little hesitating, she was a little confused. After the bankruptcy of the Teng family, she also went out to do a few jobs, but she didn't have much abilities for her as a young grandmother for many years, and she didn't even have enough hardship.

Shan Jingqiu turned around and looked at Lin Xiufang. In fact, Lin Xiufang looks pretty. Even after the stress of these years, she still has no loss of the beauty between her eyebrows and eyes, and her good family background gave her an extraordinary She smiled and said, "No, we can open a shop."

She blinked and said with a smile: "My old business, don't forget, I used to be a clothing store, and even before I was a job in a tailor shop! And you, how about being my model? ?"

"Model... Me?" Lin Xiufang was depressed, she pointed to herself, she knew what a model was, but she? Is she alright.

"Okay, let's look at the house first, and talk about the specific things later!" Shan Jingqiu smiled and pulled Lin Xiufang forward. She could see that Yu Yanze was blinking at her. The child in the previous life chose to do it. Clothing is also because she wants to complete her mother's career, and in this life, she will rise on the ground to give the child a stable life.

Next to him, Lin Xiufang was being pulled, and she kept talking about her uneasiness and inability. Teng Xiangling, who was held in her arms, looked at her mother curiously, and looked at Aunt Shan, but she couldn't come over.

...

Eight years later.

"The store manager, do we have any promotional activities for the next season's goods? The model photos taken before have been posted. See if there is anything else to deal with." The store clerk followed closely behind the store manager , Asked seriously with a notebook.

The store manager she said was Lin Xiufang.

Lin Xiufang is hot now with the big wavy head of the celebrity that came from Hong Kong. The head is fluffy and fashionable. She wears the new spring products of Jinglin women's clothing, which makes her originally proud figure even more slender and beautiful.

She stopped. She had already read the order of the new products that had just been hung up in the store. She was right about the purchase order book she made, and finally nodded in satisfaction, and explained to the clerk behind her: "Promotional activities are ours. I have already called the factory to help print the posters. You can just post the posters when the time comes. As for the clothes of the model at the window, I have selected them and put them on. You wait for the arrangement, I will get upstairs. Take a look." She spoke sharply and violently, and she finished the task in a short time. The clerk behind her kept nodding to indicate that the reception was completed, and then watched the other person leave.

The name of their store is Jinglin theyoung, which belongs to the children's clothing line of Jinglin Apparel Group, and this store is located in the core WeChat of children's clothing on the third floor of Mercury Department Store in S City. The same location upstairs is the group's women's clothing. Line, and upstairs is the menswear and sports line.

The clerk, Xiao Li, couldn’t help but leaned over and looked at this colleague who had already started working as a store manager’s assistant and said enviously: "Our store manager is really amazing... She manages three stores by herself. I have a lot of monthly salary!" Some of their shop assistants received a basic salary plus commission. They are among the best in the S city store. After all, everyone knows that Jinglin's clothes are good for sale, and their commissions are high compared to the store manager. Said, that would be ashamed!

Xiao Zhang glanced at the newly hired Xiao Li, knowing that the other party must not even memorize the names of those group leaders, and reluctantly said: "Our store manager is not the store manager of our three stores. She is the manager. The store manager, it’s just that the company has opened branches in city b and city h. Our original store manager transferred resources, and she first came to us to help coordinate the work for half a year."

"The head of the store?" Xiao Li was even more envious after hearing it, she couldn't help but said, "It must make a lot of money? It's great, I don't know when we will reach this level."

Xiao Zhang ignored her this time, and planned to go to the front to arrange the two models. She didn't want to talk too much to the newcomers who didn't know anything. She had been in the store for a long time, and the news was pretty good. Many, the store manager is not only the head of the store, but I heard that he is also a business partner with the chairman. The two of them came to s city together eight years ago. From penniless to the present branch, they even opened a province. It is said that there are foreign newspapers coming to interview the chairman!

She shook her head, no longer thinking about it, she still has to be herself, after all, who knows how true these rumors are? Some time ago, someone said that Store Manager Lin Xiufang was very shy and didn't like to talk to others! Some people also said that the chairman of the board had been on social news at the beginning, and in which city was he very famous, but now it seems that they are all fake. Just the store manager, she can’t be shy.

She has changed the clothes according to the model picture. Since the opening of the children’s clothing store, the queen’s model is the man and woman in the picture. Both of them look very outstanding. Wearing theyoung clothes looks like a natural fit, but these two People are getting bigger and bigger and she is about to change models. She can't help but start to think of her natal nephew. In fact, her nephew is also very good-looking. Or, would you recommend it to the store manager?

Outside the store, I don’t know when the large model photos have been hung up. The main theme of this summer is the hot sun. The boys and girls in the pictures are sitting back to back on the grass, facing the light, looking extraordinarily dazzling.

...

"Let's go?" Yu Yanze reached out and carried Teng Xiangling's bag on his back. There were a lot of textbooks in the first year of high school, so he looked a little reluctant to carry two bags by himself. Teng Xiangling, who was opposite him, wanted it embarrassingly. Reached out to take it, but was avoided by Yu Yanze.

Yu Yanze smiled and said: "Wait when you go home, if you let your mother see you carrying such a heavy bag, you can call me! Don't worry, I can carry ten by myself. This bag is not heavy!" Of course, Shan Jingqiu would not say that. She simply means that boys should help girls more. She has never asked so severely, but Yu Yanze has an endless desire to protect Teng Xiangling since she was a child. After so many years, I still feel that the other party is like the little girl who would only squat in the corner and shed tears when she was wronged.

"Aunt Shan would not be like this!" Teng Xiangling looked at him and couldn't help but laughed, did not grab the bag, but silently followed behind and walked outside the school, but on the way, the two people's turnaround rate was down. It's also quite high. This is a bit strange for the two of them. They have always commuted to and from get off work together since they called S City, so back in elementary school, there were rumors that they had never heard of.

I don’t know who created the identity of a cousin for them. They said it was really funny. They thought it was funny, but they were too lazy to explain. They didn’t deny it, and they have continued to this day. They are the only two in the school who walk on the road with integrity. No one will be caught by the teacher.

So this suddenly gave birth to a bunch of people and looked at the two of them from time to time, and it was very helpless to make them both.

The very familiar chubby in the class may have just finished playing, he came up from behind, grabbed Yu Yanze, winked his eyebrows, and said bashfully, "Yo yo yo, isn't this our kid Yu? Is it really cool to run freely on the grass!"

Yes, the case is solved! Yu Yanze and Teng Xiangling looked at each other at the same time, wishing to have a long conversation. Back then, their mother and Aunt Lin founded Jinglin. Firstly, the women's clothing line was cut in. Later, because the popular children's clothes on the market were rejected by their mothers, Jinglin started directly. I created a children’s clothing line, but since the store opened, the two of them were designated models.

From the very beginning of one meter to the current one meter six and one meter seven to eight, the photos taken this time were still the adult size that Shan Jingqiu specially asked the men's clothing store to do. Yu Yanze remembered that Aunt Lin was holding a camera at that time. , Asking them to run in circles in the sun, playing the game of you chasing me and me chasing you can’t help but feel helpless. Their mothers are getting younger and younger, full of mischievous thoughts, but the two of them are willing to indulge. The ambassador of this children's clothing model has been agreed by my mother to end this year, otherwise the two will have to continue to share the joys and sorrows next year.

It is said that if you oppose your mother, they will not force it, but they are reluctant. Yu Yanze knows that Teng Xiangling's mind is the same as him. After that unhappy life, mother and Aunt Lin began to struggle for their careers, and the two of them did not relax. , If you change to the present, the two can be a little relaxed and relaxed, and live a little more childlike, it doesn't hurt.

"Okay, please let the king let go of this kid, okay? I have to go home first!" Yu Yanze helplessly coaxed Xiaopang, and continued to walk home with Teng Xiangling, saying that they had been Jinglin for so many years. The reason why the model is not suspected of being related to Jinglin is because their simple mothers bought two small houses near the school and told them to walk to and from school. Neither of them had ever had it before. What a luxury life.

The two of them exercise all the year round, so they walked very fast. They arrived at the gate of the community after a while. When they saw them, the security guard of the community smiled and greeted them: "Come back! Here is your letter, come and get it !" He came out directly from the guard's room with a box of letters. There was a lot in it, but it didn't seem to weigh too much.

Teng Xiangling passed Yu Yanze and accepted the letter first. She held the box firmly in her arms and walked home step by step.

This time, Yu Yanze, who fell behind, looked at Teng Xiangling’s hands exposed due to the hot weather, feeling a little lost. Even after eight years, there is still a shallow trace on the hand. If you look far away, you can’t see it. But as long as you get closer, you can see clearly.

He quickly followed with his bag on his back. He couldn't help but recall the time when he and his mother arrived in s city. At that time, he and Xiangling were both small, but they had strong self-esteem. They wrapped themselves tightly every day. It was really unwilling to show a little bit of it. It was obviously a trace of injury, but they felt extremely ashamed and ashamed. It was obvious that they were all the same victims, but even to advance these things again, it was like splashing water on the scars.

At that time, even when he mentioned his father occasionally, he felt a little bit of inexplicable hatred. He even... he lowered his head and looked at the floor. Even in the letter from Officer Li, when he heard that his father was missing, Yu Yanze He felt brisk from the bottom of his heart. He felt that the shadow shrouded in his heart seemed to disappear after a gust of wind, but after that brisk, his heart suddenly became heavier. He found that he had become so terrible. It was his father. His father was missing, but he thought it was great.

At that time, he was a little unable to sleep, as if closing his eyes, his father's face appeared. He said to him savagely, "You think I'm missing, it's great, right?" Then he pounced. Let him wake up directly and open his eyes until dawn.

And when did things change?

"Are you back?" Shan Jingqiu smiled and opened the door, welcoming the two children who were going home from school. She had already gone to see the pattern and proofing of the new clothes for the next quarter, so she was not too busy afterwards. She also went home early to clean up. She reached out and took the box in Teng Xiangling's hand directly, smiled and said to her, "Thank you!"

Although the two families live in the opposite door, they usually eat dinner at Shan Jingqiu's place. After all, Lin Xiufang is now the manager of the store and has a long time to work overtime, so she often can't come back on time.

"Would you like to open the letter for me?" Shan Jingqiu smiled and blinked with the two guys who were still small in her heart, and directly opened the box of letters. There are roughly a hundred in it. .

"Yes!" Teng Xiangling first raised her hand to sign up, and then leaned close to Aunt Shan, and Yu Yanze followed behind, sitting cross-legged beside her mother in silence, preparing to open the letter.

Yes, everything started to change after seeing those letters.

As soon as they arrived in city s, their mother sent a message to the evening news of city b, and would reply to a letter almost every few months, telling them about their situation. After the family stabilized, they would send back some s from time to time. The specialties of the city were presented as a gift from everyone’s help, and there were more letters from city b than expected.

He was led into the study by his mother at that time. There was a whole box of letters in it, which were well preserved. His mother opened them one by one in front of her, reading them to him who was not very literate at that time. The handwriting on the letter is very ugly. There are children and adults. Except for some people who send letters to care about their current situation, most of them are to see their tragic experience in the newspaper, empathize with them, or endure it for a long time. I sent a letter to talk.

He listened to many letters that day, and he was curious at the beginning to heavy at the back. Some parents loved him, but they always cursed and typed at every turn, making the other person feel like being at home. A welcome existence; some people are like him, who have been abused by their parents since childhood and have nowhere to hide; others have been violently abused by their husbands since they were married, and the elders in the family say they are embarrassed, even if she breaks her leg, they refuse to agree to her divorce ...

At that time, he still didn't know how to describe his mood, but now, he already knew that his mood at that time was called shock.

Mom touched his head and said seriously: "Mom and you, including Xiang Ling and Aunt Lin, we have all experienced many unhappy things, but I don’t want these unhappy things to affect them forever. You become your shadow. Because we have encountered these pains and unhappiness, we know more about the struggles and the happiness that can pass the past. We must cherish our current life and try to help if we can People around, are you right?"

Mother said a lot that day, but it didn’t seem to say anything. She just asked him to read the letter silently by her mother, reply to the letter with her mother, give advice, and even asked him to reply. At that time, he was writing clumsily. :

"Auntie, I know you have worked hard, please hold on, we can work hard together to run out, right?"
