Zhou An'an sorted out Zhou Xiaoan's memories well, and she realized that Zhou Xiao'an, a girl, looked quiet and easy to bully, but in fact, she had her own ideas, and she did what she knew, and it was useless for anyone to say anything.

However, it is a pity that in her short nineteen years of life, the only thing she recognized was to take care of her brothers and sisters, and for this reason, she also carried a life of the Wang family.

Of course, this is just what the Zhou family and the Wang family think, and Zhou Anan doesn't think so.

Things have to start from the time when the People's Republic of China was founded.

At that time, Wang Lamei had given up the work of taking care of the mine to her mother's brother, in order to subsidize the family, she could only go to the suburban orchard as a temporary worker, and she could not go home for ten days and half a month as soon as she was busy during the picking season, and all the housework was handed over to Zhou Xiao'an, who had just dropped out of school.

Zhou Xiaoan carried four or five-year-old Zhou Xiaoquan on her back, washing and cooking for her brothers and sisters who went to work and school like an adult, and she also had to find time to sift cinders to earn money, and almost all the family affairs were on her alone.

It was precisely because of this that she had the opportunity to leave that bag of life-saving food for her family.

At that time, not long after the founding of the People's Republic of China, all kinds of waste were waiting to be rebuilt, and the mail road was seriously damaged, and the money and tickets that Zhou Yuehai gave them every month were sent on time, but they could not receive them on time, and sometimes a pressure was a month or two, so there was often no food at the end of the month.

Once my aunt Ma Sanmei came to borrow food again, this is already a routine, every month the Zhou family has to help the Wang family a lot of food, making their own family stretched, and the children are hungry and thin.

Zhou Yuehai's email has not come for two months, and this month has just begun, and the only grain stored at home is a small bag of sorghum noodles, which Wang Lamei asked Zhou Xiaoan to leave to the Wang family before going to the orchard. She thought that Zhou Yuehai's email would come soon, and the family would survive after a while, and there was no sense of crisis.

But Zhou Xiaoan didn't think so, she looked at Zhou Xiaoquan, who was so hungry that she couldn't walk steadily, she only gave Ma Sanmei a big bowl of wheat bran and hid the bag of grain.

How did Mrs. Ren Wang cry and persecut, and even beat her, she also bit to death that there was no food at home, and there was no death!

Wang Lamei was gone for 20 days, and when she came back, Zhou Yuehai's mail still hadn't arrived, and the six children of the Zhou family, who had already married Zhou Xiaoxian at that time, survived by the bag of sorghum noodles and the wild vegetables dug by Zhou Xiao'an.

However, the eldest son of the Wang family fainted because of hunger, ran to the suburban vegetable field to steal radish, and was chased down the hillside and fell to his death.

Wang Lamei hung Zhou Xiaoan up and beat him severely, and the Wang family also hated Zhou Xiaoan to the core, thinking that she killed the eldest son of the Wang family.

Since then, Wang Lamei has been ashamed of her mother's family, and she has connived at them without a bottom line, and the Wang family has justifiably let the Zhou family support them for so many years.

But Zhou Xiaoan, who was beaten to death, had no regrets, how could she choose between the death of others and the death of her brothers and sisters? With people's lives on her back, she also has to take care of her own family first.

But after all, she was only an eleven-year-old child at the time, and no matter how much she had an idea, she had to be influenced by the people around her. Since then, she has become more hardworking and stubborn.

Since then, no matter what Wang Lamei and the Wang family do to her, she has endured it all without saying a word.

These past events have become the heaviest and darkest burden in Zhou Xiaoan's life, and now that Zhou Anan has become Zhou Xiaoan, it has become a problem that she must face.

Zhou Xiaoquan put a little of Zhou Xiaoan's personal belongings in the net pocket and carried it with the washbasin. Zhou Xiaoan said goodbye to Sister Lao and the nurses, and followed Wang Lamei out of the ward.

Han Dazhuang squatted in the corridor with his head bored and didn't send them a single step.

Instead, Tao Weiwei sent them downstairs and told Zhou Xiaoan to come and play with her.

This little girl's big round eyes shone with gossip, this is because she hasn't heard enough of the story, and she is going to let Zhou Xiaoan tell her the follow-up.

Zhou Xiaoan did not reject Tao's slight curiosity at all, and he was quite welcoming. In the matter of the Han family, she is preparing to spread more news that is beneficial to herself.

Walking to the gate of the hospital, Zhou Xiaozhu and Ma Lan greeted them as soon as they saw them.

Ma Lan stared at the net pocket in Zhou Xiaoquan's hand and was about to take it for inspection, but Zhou Xiaoquan obviously avoided it, and her sharp eyebrows stood up at once, "Seventh!" You can't turn your elbows out! ”

Ma Lan quit immediately, and if she didn't show her, she still wanted Zhou Xiaoan to take the Han family?

"This uncle bought it for my second sister, and I will help her take it home." Zhou Xiaoquan pushed back stiffly, looking at his second sister-in-law with a wary face.

He doesn't want to see the Wang family, and he doesn't want to see the niece of this aunt Ma Sanmei.

As soon as she heard Zhou Yuehai's name, Ma Lan's eyes flashed and she was no longer as bitter as usual, and immediately gave Zhou Xiaozhu a look, and the two of them sandwiched Wang Lamei left and right, "Auntie, when will the uncle go back to our house?" It's so easy to come back, you have to go back for a meal, right? ”

Wang Lamei looked at Zhou Xiaozhu, and finally had a little smile on her face, this second son looks the most like Zhou Dahai, with white skin and big eyes, and at the age of thirty-three, he is still like a young man in twenty-four or five, and he looks very energetic.

Zhou Xiaozhu also knew that his mother liked him, he was such a big person, and he dared to say anything to please him in front of his mother, "Auntie, did the uncle say anything about him?" He's on a mission? Then there has to be a bonus for young and old, right? ”

Zhou Xiaozhu is most concerned about how much money Zhou Yuehai can give to his family this time, he drew a bicycle ticket this year, and the uncle gave him money to buy a bicycle quickly.

When the time comes, press the car bell so that the bell rings crisply, stop in front of the young female workers who get off work, and light a cigarette with one foot on the ground, not to mention how energetic!

It's a pity that it's the Golden Deer of National Taiwan University, and if it's a phoenix, it will be even more eye-catching!

"Your uncle didn't say anything, let's not ask nonsense, you can't just ask about the affairs of the army!" When Zhou Yuehai disappeared, someone from the army came to do a special job for them, and the family was very impressed.

Wang Lamei and the three of them walked while talking in front, and Zhou Xiaoan and Zhou Xiaoquan slowly fell behind. Zhou Xiaoan was injured, and he was malnourished and hungry, and his legs were a little weak after walking a few steps.

The Coal Mine Hospital is built next to the family area of the mine, and it takes about 20 minutes to walk from the hospital to the Zhou family's compound through a large residential area. This distance is a great burden on Zhou Xiaoan's body.

"Sister, I'll carry you!" Zhou Xiaoquan immediately squatted down, he originally wanted to borrow a bicycle to pick up his sister, but unfortunately the people who had a bicycle didn't trust him, a half-grown boy, and refused to lend it to him.

None of the family members were willing to help him, he ran outside all morning, and he didn't know about Zhou Xiaoan's suicide.

Zhou Xiaoan patted his thin back, "Let's rest, let them go first." The sister and brother exchanged a tacit look and smiled.

Both of them don't want to listen to the second brother and second sister-in-law, and they usually never get close when they can get away.

It's just that Zhou Xiaoan has never been so relaxed or even naughty before, and he just walked away with a calm face and Zhou Xiaoquan's collar on the back of his neck.

"Sister, you ......" Zhou Xiaoquan couldn't describe his feelings, he just grinned and smirked at his sister, "You are so good, better than before." ”

Zhou Xiaoan was not weak at all, "Look at it!" Sister can be better in the future! ”

No matter how much she disguises it, there is a difference between her and the real Zhou Xiaoan, but who would have thought that she was not Zhou Xiaoan? So as long as she doesn't go out of line, she still plans to change little by little and finally be her own.

Zhou Xiaoquan nodded happily and helped Zhou Xiaoan to rest on a telephone pole, "Sister, don't worry, I promise not to let people bully you in the future!" ”

Zhou Xiaoan patted Zhou Xiaoquan's head, after all, he was a boy, and no matter how slow he grew, he was as tall as her, "Well, sister won't let people bully you in the future!" ”

She grew up in the love and connivance of a group of cousins, and subtly applied the way her brothers and sisters treated her to Zhou Xiao's body.

Zhou Xiaoquan was a little embarrassed, but he was very happy, not only because his sister said that she wanted to protect him, but also because she found that her sister suddenly became relaxed and happy.

Zhou Anan has lived in pampering and wealth since she was a child, and the kind of bright and positive attitude in her body and the confidence cultivated by the living environment are full of confidence that Zhou Xiaoan will never have, so even if there is no change in appearance, you can immediately feel it as soon as you come into contact with her.

The siblings talked for a while, and when they saw that the three of them were about to lose sight, they slowly walked home. After walking for more than half an hour, I finally walked to the door of the compound where the Zhou family lived.

It was originally the home of a reactionary businessman, but after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the reactionary businessman was overthrown, his family was thrown out, and the house was distributed to the workers by the government.

There are twenty or thirty households living in the two courtyards, and there is only one tap in the center of the courtyard, which is crowded with people queuing up to receive water at any time.

The toilets are five or six hundred meters away, almost all the open spaces are covered with black canopies and coal sheds, and the stoves of each house are built in a haphazard manner in front of their homes, and the pots and pans for eating are placed outside without any obstruction.

Everywhere there were smudges of unknown origin and complicated smells, and everything seemed to have fallen into a layer of dust, dirty and dusty, and it was depressing to watch.

It's the New Year, everyone is busy unwashing bedding and clothes, and tattered sheets and clothes are hanging on the clothesline.

As soon as the sister and brother walked to the door, Shi Laigui in the front yard walked out with an enamel spittoon, he was on the night shift in the mine yesterday, and just got up and came out to pour the urinal, "Yo! Xiaoquan, brought your sister back, is this? ”

This voice attracted all the people in the courtyard, and everyone greeted the sisters and brothers warmly, but their eyes stared at Zhou Xiaoan like searchlights, obviously knowing her affairs.

Even Luo Fool, who was squatting under the wall and basking in the sun, drooled and came over with a smile.

Zhou Xiao'an kept walking, pulling Zhou Xiaoquan to walk towards the backyard where they lived. She is usually dull and silent, and there is no need to greet them at this time.

The same was true in the backyard, where the people who saw them were unusually enthusiastic.

It was easy to walk to the door, and as soon as he opened the door, an empty carton fell to Zhou Xiaoquan's face with a snap, and an old lady's voice scolded sharply and roughly, "What are you doing when you bring her back?!" There's no shame in that! I'm so ashamed to go out! Dead Star! Hell-begging! Sooner or later, the whole family will have to kill her! ”

This is Mrs. Wang's voice, if you want to say who hates Zhou Xiaoan the most in the whole family, it is her. In Mrs. Wang's heart, Zhou Xiao'an was the culprit who killed their royal grandson! The Wang family was almost cut off by this mourning star!
