Yang Manti's real name is Yang Wu'er, she has a family, thousands of miles away on the banks of the Ussuri River, there are five sisters in the family, and she is the fifth.

The youngest child should have been the most favored, but Xiao Wu's life was hard and he beat his brother to death in his mother's womb. Therefore, she has not been treated well since she was born, and her relatives are thin, her father hates her for being a girl, and her mother does not cherish this little daughter. The sisters are still young, the youngest is only three years old, and the oldest is a half-old child, and there is nothing they can do about their parents' arrangements for their little sister.

Poor Wu'er was doomed to her tragic fate from birth. The inside is hollowed out, there is no home in the heart, there is no support, and the brilliance of the appearance cannot fill the emptiness and loneliness in the heart.

But before she was born, she was eagerly anticipated by all her relatives. It can be said that the fifth child was pinned on by the whole family, especially the father of the child.

In rural areas, every family is looking forward to having a son, and if there is a son, there is hope.

Although no one knows exactly what this child will be able to do when he grows up, what kind of person he will become. There are those who are promising, those who can make money, those who are big officials, or those who are unproductive, those who are poor, and those who are grass-dwellers. No one said clearly. The fate of man is known only to God. But everyone is still looking forward to their son.

What's the use of having a son? In the end, it's still incomprehensible vanity. Everyone says that it is good to have a son, and everyone can be energetic to have a son, which seems to have become an unshakable trend. Just like the waves on the sea, like the ears of wheat lodging down in the wind, everyone rushed to the market as if they were rushing to the market, for fear that they would be laughed at by their predecessors if they were one step too late, and they all rushed to give birth to a son.

Wu'er came to this family in an atmosphere full of anticipation, lay down in the hostess's belly, quietly dreamed her sweet dreams, and silently guarded the family's ardent hopes.

When her mother was pregnant with her, her belly was so big that she could grind soy milk, and his father was looking forward to a twin son, a double stick, and the neighbor cursed him for not having such a blessing, and he couldn't afford to raise two sons, his father didn't care, if it was really two sons, that is, he was willing to sell his first four daughters for money to raise his son.

Her father has long been tired of his wife, who always gives birth to a younger sister. The first time was a girl, and there was a little comfort in the feeling of loss: the girl is good, she can't earn face, but the girl can help with the work when she grows up, and she can do the farm work at home, help her father and mother share the work, and take her younger brother. How nice it is for my sister to take my brother.

The eldest sister is like a mother, saving a lot of worry about being a mother. Besides, if a girl grows up, as long as she is passable, she can find someone to marry, and then she will wait to be her father-in-law and mother-in-law, and wait for the blessing of raising someone's son. has never suffered the hardships of raising a son, but enjoys the blessings of other people's sons, and it is a good deal.

It's better to have a beautiful daughter.

Her father comforted and deceived himself so much, the first time, the second time, the third time, the fourth time...... These little lives without prophets were thrown into this family, and the hopes of the man were disappointed again and again. Oh my God, I don't want a daughter, it's all four table legs. What is the use of so many daughters, who can inherit the incense? Who can help with the farm work in the field?

Her father was very afraid of having another daughter, and when he saw that his wife's belly was different from the previous ones, it was very big, so he had an idea. Such a big belly must be two. If it's two, there will be a boy, and at least one of the two children must be given to me, God, you've already given me four daughters, I don't want it—

Her father went to the temple to pray to God and worship the Buddha, prayed again and again, and every time he finished praying, he saw the Buddha smiling at him. A wave of joy came to his heart, looking forward to his son! My first son, the first son in my life.

After only six months of such joy, her mother's stomach ached in the cold all night, and his father hurriedly found the midwife, and waited happily outside the door curtain, waiting for the son to cry loudly.

The wife was crying and shouting inside, scolding him for being a villain, and asking her to harvest the seeds, which was pulling meat from her body, and it hurt so much that it was torn apart... His father leaned on the door frame, grabbed the rotten wood, wanted to scold and was afraid of scaring his wife, she couldn't give birth and it would be over, this mother-in-law had given birth to four money-losing goods, why was she still so impatient?

The first four girls in the room stood in a row, listening to the thrill, looking at their father, and asking in fright, Dad, is my mother going to die? - Nonsense, your mother is giving you a little brother! Don't be noisy. The four girls were all a year old, one was half a head shorter than the other, standing in a row like a ladder, and their expressions were more nervous than the other.

The eldest sister listened to the mother's cry three times, every time the mother shouted, quiet, the midwife came out with her sister in her arms, and then the sound of the father smashing the chair and smashing the water tank, the eldest sister was born, the father rushed to the mother's bed and scolded, and the mother cried.

After that, every autumn, my mother will have another one, every year is a sister, every year is a shouting and scolding, scolding is finished crying. His father scolded his life, and his mother cried for her life, all because he didn't have a younger brother.

There are many mice in the house, and my father has a cat with a turtle shell pattern. This cat also gives birth to cubs every year, and the eldest sister will always take her sisters to distinguish the little male cat, so that the female cat can be thrown away and replaced by her son. Strange to say, this cat, like the hostess, is also a litter of females for life.

It's the fifth year of this year, and the female cat finally gave birth to a different one, but it made the father happy, thinking that his incapable wife should give herself a long face this time.

The five people looked forward to it, the mother shouted hoarsely, and the midwife suddenly broke the curtain and said to them, quickly take the basin to catch the blood.

His father panicked, why did he take a basin to catch blood? Did you give birth to it? Boys?

The midwife gave him a blank look, and did not answer, and soon a basin full of blood was brought out, and his father vomited repeatedly, and the hot and fishy smell of blood made him nauseous.

"Where's the son?"

His father shouted into the house.

"That's the dead one."

When his father heard this, he was stunned, what, this basin of blood is his son? He hurriedly picked up the blood basin and looked at it carefully, son, you turned into a bubble of blood and it was gone, son! The four daughters gathered around their father to comfort him, but his father scolded:

"It's all you, you four killed your brother, come and see, this is your brother."

The girls were so frightened by their father's appearance and the horrible blood basin that they cried out loud.

"Shut up!"

His father shouted at his four daughters. He was very irritable in his heart, originally thinking that his wife would be able to give birth to the child smoothly this time, and the midwife would take it out for himself as soon as he gave birth. This time he had thought of his son's name, and both sons had figured it out. So now suddenly one died?

Her father suddenly felt a swelling pain in his head, and in a daze, he heard several generations of ancestors noisily surrounding him, buzzing like bees, "Give birth to a son!" Give birth to a son! ”

"If I can't give birth to a son, our family will have no queen, and I won't have the face to see my ancestors and ancestors in the future, can I still enter the ancestral hall? I've become a sinner of the old Yang family! ”

Thinking of these messy things like this, his father's head hurt even more, and he longed to hit his head against the wall to immediately avoid this difficult anxiety and pain.

"Raw?"

Her father yelled into the room, anxious.

"Wow-"

A loud baby cry came, his father immediately raised his head, dropped the basin, and rushed into the house, the midwife did not have time to clean up the mother, the baby was also covered in blood, the bed was a mess, a strong smell of blood permeated the whole room, choking nose.

The midwife hurriedly pulled the quilt and covered the mother, afraid of frightening people, turned to the man and said:

"Hey, big brother, can't you wait for me to take it out?"

"Show me, my son!"

The man strode in front of the midwife, holding his hands forward, his face full of joy and excitement, for this son, he has waited for many years, many years have not been as he wished, today is the time to let himself raise his eyebrows. Let me hug my son. The man reached forward again.

The midwife held the child, and her two thick arms just covered the child's petite body, and the sex of the newborn could not be seen. She could hear what the man meant, and she stopped talking.

The woman lying on the bed lowered her head, looked embarrassed, bit her lip, and muttered:

"His father—the fifth sister."

The mother's weak voice was like a mosquito's cry, but her man could hear it clearly.

What, girls again?

Her father thought he hadn't heard clearly. My son's dream has been sitting for a long time, and he has taken it as true. But reality slapped me hard - do your spring and autumn dreams! I want a son! No! Just no! Why is it that everyone can have sons, but I can't, why do others give birth to sons and give birth to one after another, but I can't give birth to one? Why the hell is this, I've been scolded for four years as a "dead house", why can't I still give me a son!

His father didn't get angry, pointed to the curtain and asked the midwife:

"Is that a man or a woman in that basin?"

The midwife held the baby girl's hand and sifted the chaff non-stop, not daring to speak.

"Dad, don't ask, it's a boy, here."

The mother lifted the small quilt to reveal a bloody dead baby hidden inside. His father rushed forward like crazy, grabbed the child, fixed his eyes on the small piece of soft new flesh between the child's legs, and suddenly choked, and then "ho-goo-ho" cried heart-rendingly, which was terrifying.

The mother-in-law didn't dare to make a sound when she heard the man's cry, and the four girls outside were so frightened that they hugged each other tightly when they heard the messy sound inside.

Suddenly, the man threw the dead son in his hand silently, and it happened to fall on his wife's face impartially.

"Why are you going, dad?"

"Big brother, don't ......"

"Daddy—"
