When Qi Ming was five years old, he lost his father.

In many cases, the word "loss" is easily understood as departed.

But the loss here is not.

His father did not die, nor did he say that his father divorced his mother, he followed his mother, who divorced his father.

His parents were not divorced at all, and they could not have divorced at all. It's just because his parents have always been very loving.

Lost, only because his father disappeared suddenly and inexplicably when he was young, and has not been heard from since.

No matter how relatives and friends, or even the public security police tried to find them, they could not find them.

For a while, the neighbors and villagers were discussing.

Because of his father's job, as time went on, day after day, everyone thought that Qi Ming's father had absconded with a huge amount of money.

That's why they didn't even greet their families, didn't even want their wives and children, evaporated from the world, and disappeared from counties and cities.

And this is an incomparably huge blow to Qi Ming's family.

In addition to being subject to all kinds of gossip and discussions, the financial pressure on the family is also very heavy in an instant.

With the disappearance of the pillar of the family, all the pressure fell on Qi Ming's mother alone.

She needs to work hard alone to pull Qi Ming and Qi Yan to grow up.

Qi Ming's mother was a very ordinary rural woman, introverted, and had never gone to work in her life. But for the sake of Qi Ming's siblings, after a period of overwhelm, she had to work hard to be strong, and she had to work hard to find a job to raise a pair of children under her knees.

One year, two years, three years, even five years, ten years......

Qi Ming's mother worked hard to pull the two children to junior high school.

Over the years, she has been very lost every day and depressed every day.

Over the years, she has not been less sneered. Regarding Qi Ming's father, who is also her husband, it is often mentioned by the people around him as an after-dinner conversation.

The weight of life, as well as the mental pressure, almost crushed her completely over time.

Over the years, she has endured too much suffering.

As for his mother's sadness and pain over the years, Qi Ming has always seen it in his eyes.

Although he is still young, although he looks more immature than his age on the outside, he is very precocious on the inside, he is very sensible, and he is also very well-behaved, trying his best to reduce the burden on his mother. When encountering injustices or being bullied by others, he endured it, and he swallowed all the grievances and grievances into his stomach hard.

And his sister, who is a few years younger than him, has also been like him since she was a child, obedient and very obedient, and never annoys her mother.

Having such an obedient and sensible pair of children is undoubtedly an extremely fortunate thing for parents.

However, even so, it could not fully comfort Qi Ming's mother.

She is still preoccupied, unhappy, and depressed.

When Qi Ming was in the third year of junior high school, she had a serious illness because of overwork and excessive mental burden.

And this illness not only consumed the remaining savings of the family, but also made her sick, and finally died.

In the end, only the underage Qi Ming brothers and sisters were left alone and dependent on each other.

When he was young, his father disappeared and has not been heard from since. Now, my mother fell down due to illness again, and she couldn't afford to be sick and died completely. For the Qi Ming brothers and sisters, such a blow is not a big one.

The only breadwinner of the family has also completely collapsed.

They simply don't know where tomorrow is or where they should go.

They don't know how to continue living.

As the saying goes, the eldest brother is the father.

In order to be able to continue to survive.

When there was really no way, Qi Ming had to abandon his studies and had to prepare to work to make money.

Even if his academic performance is very good, he will definitely be able to be admitted to a very ideal high school in the future.

It's just that at that time, let alone being an adult, he was not even sixteen years old, and it was even more difficult to find a lucrative job.

This is because the Law on the Protection of Minors clearly stipulates that no organization or individual may recruit minors under the age of 16. Failure to do so will result in very severe penalties.

It's also thanks to the existence of good people in this world.

Some people will make things worse when you are in the most difficult situation, but there are also people who will help and warm you in the snow.

After learning about the plight of Qi Ming's brothers and sisters, the teachers at the school and some relatives and neighbors who usually get closer to each other have given their brothers and sisters some assistance.

This allowed the Qi Ming brothers and sisters to go through the initial difficult period after losing their mother.

During this period, Qi Ming also helped people do a little work, do what he could, and make some money.

However, there is always a limit to the assistance of others.

What can really be relied on in this world is ultimately only yourself.

After graduating from junior high school and the high school entrance examination, Qi Ming did not continue to study.

This is not to say that his exam results were unsatisfactory and he failed to be admitted to high school or secondary vocational school, on the contrary, his high school entrance examination results were very, very good.

The reason why he didn't continue his studies was because of his family's poor financial situation.

My sister has just entered junior high school, and due to the nine-year compulsory education, due to the exemption of tuition and book fees, the financial burden is not very heavy.

But he's different.

The financial pressure of high school is far heavier than that of his sister in junior high school.

Moreover, due to the death of his mother, the family has lost its only breadwinner and has no source of income.

If he is still in high school, if he continues to study, not to mention the tuition fees, not even the normal living expenses of him and his sister.

The eldest brother is the father, and in the absence of parents, as the elder brother, he carries all the pressure and burden.

So, after graduating from junior high school, he went out to work directly.

And the place where he worked was the small bar he took her to for the first time after Liu Yue's college entrance examination.

Although the salary is not very high, it is barely able to meet the normal expenses of the family.

For Qi Ming, that was enough.

That's already satisfying.

Although life was relatively poor, he and his sister were at least able to survive.

Of course, although he did not continue to study, he did not give up studying, and whenever he had time, he would go to the bookstore to read books, and he would look at them for a relatively period of time.

Although his family situation forced him to give up his studies.

But he is convinced that knowledge can change fate, and he has not given up on constantly improving himself.

However, the roof leak happened to rain overnight, and the ship was late and encountered a head wind.

Heaven once again played a joke on the poor family, as if on purpose.

The pranks can be described over and over again.

A vicious car accident made this already stormy family even worse.

His sister was hit by a car on her way home from school, and the driver found out that he had hit someone and fled directly in order to avoid responsibility.
