Xia Yao looked at the half-new calendar on the wall in a daze, her grandfather asked her to tear off a page every day, tearing the calendar became one of her few pleasures, and not a day was lost, so the calendar showed April 1, which is the exact date of today. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

April Fool's Day? She hooked her lips and smiled, God really likes to joke and let her be reborn today.

Grandpa...... She closed her eyes and found that the image of the old man was so blurry in her memory that she couldn't even remember when he had left, it seemed that it was not long ago.

For the past few years, her grandfather has been responsible for taking care of their mother and daughter, until one day, her grandfather said that her uncle's family needed help urgently, so he left in a hurry, leaving no contact information, and since then there has been no news, leaving only their mother and daughter to rely on each other.

Later, she didn't think about looking for her grandfather, but after many years, she found her uncle's family, but she never saw her grandfather again, and the old man had passed away.

Her eyes were cold, and she remembered the shameless face of her uncle's family, her uncle's cowering and disgust, and her aunt's cunning calculations, and she felt disgusted even thinking about them too much.

It would be nice if she could find her grandfather, she was confident that she could take care of him in this life, she pursed her lips, and she would not forget that in this year's summer vacation, she was selected by the Fang family and sent to the training camp, and since then she has bid farewell to this family.

In this way, it was only more than two months since she was selected, and she frowned slightly, this time she didn't want to leave her mother again and be sent to that place.

She took out the cooked porridge, cut a few pieces of pickles, and coped with a meal, although there was no nutrition, but after all, she filled her stomach, her little body had strength, and the whole person felt comfortable and relieved.

Xia Fanglian slept peacefully, she squatted beside her and looked at her carefully, she was gentle and serene when she fell asleep, there was a quiet beauty, she was undoubtedly a beauty when she was young, even now, wiping the dirt off her face is still amazing.

Time and illness have not taken away her beauty, which is undoubtedly extremely rare.

It's just that she doesn't have many times when she is so calm, I remember that she would wake up loudly in her sleep, thinking of Xia Fanglian's eyes full of horror, how could she bear to wake her up from her sleep.

Warm the gruel in a pot, boil a pot of hot water, and rinse the dark body in the bathroom.

Fortunately, my grandfather was still a small leader in the factory back then, and the dormitory assigned to him was not large, but it had a kitchen and bathroom, and a small balcony.

She touched the top of her head, and the blood was no longer flowing, and the dried blood stains made her hair as dry and hard as firewood, and at the same time, she was helpless to find that she couldn't even find a bar of soap at home, let alone a comb and a mirror.

My grandfather is a big man, although he has taken care of his daughter and granddaughter for many years, he is still relatively careless after all, and it is impossible to prepare all the daily necessities one by one, not to mention that he left in a hurry, and he only had time to prepare the most important medicine, and the other daily necessities have almost been exhausted.

Fortunately, at this time, she was ten years old, and she had been helping her grandfather work since she was a child, and her grandfather was still more at ease with her, and handed over the most important money and medicine to her for safekeeping before leaving.

She hung the laundry on the balcony, the anti-theft net on the balcony was firmly welded, and even a few iron bars were welded horizontally and vertically, people couldn't get out no matter what, but staying on the balcony was like going to prison, and there were only iron windows as far as the eye could see.

She leaned on the iron window and looked at the building opposite, behind each window there were dim or warm white lights, from time to time there was the sound of playing mahjong shuffling, drinking and guessing boxing, and the sound of parents reprimanding their children, children crying, everything was full of the breath of life, worldly and lovely.

She used to think that she was full of disgust for this place, the adults here humiliated her and her mother with all kinds of vicious words, the children took pleasure in bullying and beating her, their mother and daughter were the jokes that distracted them from their boring lives, they vented their dissatisfaction with reality by insulting them, and the two of them seemed to be the two most unbearable dogs in this compound, everyone could go up and kick and spit twice.

When she left, she had vowed that one day she would straighten her spine and return home, and she would take revenge on these vulgar people who had abused and humiliated them.

But when she came out of the cannibalistic purgatory, the anger that had tormented her for a long time was all insignificant, the dead soldiers of the Fang family did not need feelings, and she was always accompanied by the coldness of black ashes.

And she died once, she slowly accepted all the feelings that belonged to a normal person, and gradually returned to her, at this moment she is flesh and blood, more like a real person.

Those resentments and hatreds are gone, live a good life, from now on, there will be a person under the lamp who will always wait for her return.

With a rare smile on her lips, she turned around and opened the drawer, which contained a bank card and an envelope, all the possessions that her grandfather had left them.

There was a thousand yuan in the envelope, which was the cash left by her grandfather before leaving, she had not touched it in order to save money in the past two months, and she had the impression that she had only been to the vegetable market a few times when she was hungry, but the money used to buy vegetables was the change in another tin box in the drawer, and the rest of the time she almost secretly picked up other people's leftovers to eat.

At that time, she was full of a sense of crisis in her heart, she knew that her mother's medicine was very expensive, and she tried every possible way to save the money to buy her medicine to eat, and no matter how poor and miserable her life was, she didn't dare to touch this money.

Looking at the thin banknotes in her hand, she no longer had the feeling of trembling back then, she didn't know where the medicine her grandfather bought came from, but she was sure that she wouldn't dare to give Xia Fanglian this problematic medicine anyway.

Medicine has to be bought, and food has to be eaten.

Although they are poor now, they are not starving to death, and my grandfather's salary of more than 1,000 yuan will be credited to this bank card on time every month, at least they don't have to worry about eating, and they can still live if they live on a budget.

The only thing that worries her is Xia Fanglian's illness, a mentally ill person is undoubtedly a huge burden that is unbearable for a poor family, especially since they now have no financial income other than their grandfather's salary.

The medicine left by her grandfather was fake, and Xia Fanglian's torture would be heavier every day she dragged on, not to mention other treatment methods, the most important thing was to get some medicine to calm her down when she had a seizure.

I have to find a way to make money, she sighed, it is not difficult to make money with her skills, although her gambling skills are not superb, but she dares to guarantee that there will be no opponents for her in this small Yunliu City.

It's a pity that she is only ten years old, and gambling on this kind of thing will have something to do with the underworld, and there are no elders in the family who can help her cover up and rely on.

Thinking that she might meet someone from the Fang family in two months, she felt a burst of irritability in her heart, she couldn't be clearer about the methods of the Fang family, and she would definitely be investigated at that time, if the money from unknown sources aroused the suspicion of the Fang family, then what was waiting for her would be......

Looking at the calendar on the wall, she shuddered, Fang family, Fang family, she had to deal with it with twelve points of spirit.

She needs money, but it must come from the right source, it doesn't need to be disguised, and it can't be too much, and it's not easy to control it within the range that can improve their lives.

She was stunned for a while, her eyes inadvertently glanced at the broken schoolbag in the corner, and then she remembered that she was still a student, and she was going to class tomorrow, and with her usual study habits, today's homework should still not be touched.

I really didn't expect that I was old and had to deal with my homework in school, she smiled bitterly, pulled the schoolbag resignedly, and almost accidentally broke the strap of the schoolbag.

The primary school she attends is naturally not a key school, it is a vegetable market primary school near the compound, and most of the children who go to school in this primary school are not from very good families.

But even so, her living conditions are the worst among her friends, other classmates can at least go home to eat a hot meal, and they can concentrate on studying, but she also has to take care of Xia Fanglian, which is undoubtedly too heavy a burden for a ten-year-old child, because most of her energy is involved in Fang Lian, she is not a playful child, but she is not a diligent child, she often sleeps distracted during class, and she does homework after returning home, and she naturally reads unsatisfactory.

At that time, she was too young to realize the importance of reading, and after being recruited by the Fang family, her cultural foundation was also the worst, and it took a lot of effort to catch up, and only she understood the hardships and hardships.

Pulled out a short pencil tip from her schoolbag, this is her only stationery, the schoolbag is empty, except for textbooks, there is only the school's homework book, on which are written crookedly, she writes carelessly, and the teacher's correction is also careless.

The homework in their school is really not difficult, not much, it is completely in accordance with the syllabus, and it is naturally easy to cope with it at her current level, if it is changed to the homework of a key school, I am afraid she will have to scratch her ears and cheeks and spend a lot of effort.

She lay on the table, writing stroke by stroke very seriously, so earnestly that it was even close to piety.

It's ridiculous to think about it, in this life, she doesn't want to be the dead soldier who licks blood from the knife edge anymore, but ******** wants to be a good student who makes progress every day.

After finishing her homework, she looked at the textbook with fascination, how many years had not come into contact with such a simple and childlike reading material, she not only felt naïve, but full of interest.
