Chapter 14: Mother-Daughter Love (1)
****
The ruthlessness of the Lu family, the resentment of her mother's family, and the ridicule of her acquaintances made her almost want to commit suicide by throwing herself into the river, but for the sake of her daughter, she couldn't die, so she had to survive silently.
Because she is a single mother, with a daughter who is waiting to be fed, she is reluctant to recruit her for a slightly better job, except for a small handbag factory that is very polluting and pays wages by piece.
For the survival of herself and her daughter, she has no choice but to put down all her posture and be a female worker in a handbag factory, working day and night in the dusty factory in exchange for a meager salary.
Because of this, she began to suffer from respiratory diseases, often couldn't sleep in the middle of the night and was woken up by coughing, and then looked at the face of her daughter next to her and burst into tears.
However, she never resented the misfortune her daughter brought her.
She only resents that she has made her daughter ugly, discriminated against and ridiculed, and may suffer all kinds of hardships in the future.
She also hated herself for being incompetent, unable to protect her daughter, and letting her be bullied.
Every time she thought of this, her heart became more sour, and when she hugged her daughter, her tears flowed even more.
Su Zhen, who was sitting in the back seat of the car, looked at the back of Su Ke's shoulder, and obviously felt her mood fluctuations.
A person's expression can deceive people, but a person's back cannot deceive people.
Su Ke's back at this time seemed to be pretending to be strong, but he was so lonely, helpless and sad, which made people feel pity.
Su Jin reached out and patted Su Ke's back to show his comfort.
Su Ke felt it, so he hurriedly lowered his head, put away the sad emotion on his face, and when he looked back at his daughter, he was already smiling faintly.
"Little Scar, what's wrong?"
She asked softly.
"Don't be sad, I will protect you in the future!"
Su Zhen looked at her and said, on her pointed thin and pale little face, people felt unquestionable determination and firmness.
Hearing this, Su Ke's tears could no longer be suppressed, and they flowed down.
She stopped her bike, turned around and hugged Su Jin, choking up.
Su Zhen has never been used to being in such close contact with people, and her mother and father have never hugged her, and her brothers and sisters, all of them are intriguing and fighting to the death, and naturally they will not hug each other.
Moreover, out of self-protection, she also does not allow others to contact her so closely.
What's more, Su Ke is still a stranger to her.
She was a little resistant, but in the end she didn't push her away, but let her hold herself and cry on her shoulder.
This poor and thin woman touched the soft spot in her heart, and gave her an urge to protect her.
She swore that as long as she hadn't returned to Dayong, she would protect the woman in front of her, so that she would no longer be frightened, ridiculed, or bullied.
Su Ke hugged his daughter's thin body, but he couldn't feel the fragility and cringe he had before.
In her small body, there seems to be a powerful power that is not known, giving people a very reassuring feeling.
Has her daughter grown up?
Or was it that his head was hit by this and suddenly became stronger?
Su Ke let go of Su Zhen and looked at her suspiciously.
Her eyes were no longer flinching, and they were also looking back at her, and her dark eyes were like a deep pool, making her feel unspeakably strange and strange.
