101 Don't Forget (28)
Wu Zihan was one of the first women to be called to become a "maid".
And her path to becoming a "maid" is different from Junko's being deceived, but step by step "voluntary".
Wu Zihan was born in a poor family and has two younger brothers.
Years of war have made the already embarrassing family conditions even worse.
The year the war finally ended, the two younger brothers were seventeen and sixteen years old, and the three of them were studying in the same high school.
Previously, because of the frequent wars, the classes of the three sisters and brothers were also intermittent, and now there is a truce. The school informed that classes would be normal in the future, and that every student would be able to return to school as long as they had a physical examination in accordance with the regulations.
Zihan is very happy that she can finally go to school to study with peace of mind, and she is full of expectations for the future
Go to college, find a boyfriend who really loves each other, get married and have children......
Although the world has become devastated and there is terrible nuclear radiation, life and studies must go on, and as long as you live, there is hope.
Unexpectedly, the night before the school announced the full resumption of classes, Zihan was interviewed by his parents alone
"Hanhan, the family's current money is not enough for the three of you to go back to school at the same time, you see ......"
The parents wanted to talk and stopped, but the answers were written on their faces
You are the eldest sister, you should take care of your younger brother and give her the opportunity to go to school.
Zihan knows the subtext of his parents, but he still resists weakly
"Mom and Dad, I know I'm an older sister, but I also want to go to school, besides, my grades are better than my two younger brothers, and I have more hope of making our family ......"
Father interrupted rudely
"Don't talk about those useless ones, how can you do with good grades? In the end, don't you still have to marry someone else's family and be a daughter-in-law for someone else's family, can we still count on you? ”
Zihan wept and argued
"Dad, isn't it okay if I don't get married? In the future, if I have a job, I will not marry and support you and my mother for the rest of my life, is it okay? ”
The parents looked at each other, and the father nodded lightly to the mother.
Zihan looked at the two with tears in his eyes.
The mother took out a leaflet from under the table and handed it to Zihan
"Hanhan, my mother doesn't want you to drop out of school, how can there be parents in the world who don't love their children? But our family really doesn't have any money, and you know that, so we have to find a way to solve the problem together and make some money so that you can continue to go to school. ”
Zihan took the leaflet.
A beautiful young woman, holding a newborn baby in her arms, is smiling gently at the child, exuding a beautiful maternal light.
This image occupies more than half of the flyer, with a few lines of small print underneath
Eighteen-year-old Zihan can fully understand the meaning of this leaflet.
But......
Is this really something that biological parents can do? Let your only daughter be a surrogate?
And she's only eighteen?
Zihan could understand the content of the flyer, but because he was too shocked by his parents' operation, he was speechless for a while, and could only look at his father and mother in a daze.
Father Wu was stunned by her, snorted heavily, dropped a sentence "I'm going to smoke a cigarette" and then quickly stood up and left.
The mother then took out her previous physical examination report, which was a physical examination arranged by the school for the normal resumption of classes
"Hanhan, your physical examination report has also come out, all the physical indicators are fully in line with the conditions for surrogacy, you are young, you do not have any underlying diseases, and you have not been contaminated by nuclear radiation, you are a perfect ......"
Fertility tools.
Mother Wu swallowed the last few words back.
But Zihan could still hear those four words clearly, and they smashed a monstrous wave in her heart.
The waves covered her nose and mouth, suffocating her in pain.
Now that the most difficult part has been spoken, and the face is no longer needed, Wu Mu decided to finish it in one breath
"If you do it, you'll get a lot of money, not only will your tuition not be a problem, but even your two younger brothers' tuition fees will be covered at the same time. Hanhan, this is really a lot of money, catching up with your father's salary for five years of hard work......"
Zihan thought numbly
Is giving birth to someone else a child worth five years of an ordinary person's salary?
"And, if it goes well, it only takes a year from pregnancy to birth. Hanhan! Just one year! Then you'll be able to go back to school!
You only need to delay for a year, but you're still young, what is this year? And this year, you can get so much money, enough to make up for your time this year, isn't it? Hanhan, think about it......"
Zihan remembered that her usual mother was not like this.
The parents have a meager income and are struggling to survive with their three children, because of the difficulty of making a living, everyone is nervous, and the home is always full of yelling and scolding.
Mother, it's been a long, long time since I've spoken so gently to myself.
Zihan wiped away his tears and asked calmly
"Mom, then you promise me that as long as I do it once, then I can go back to school?"
Mother nodded like pounded garlic
"Yes, promise! Just this once! Then you go back to school and continue your studies! Learn what you want to learn! And Hanhan, you don't need to stay unmarried for the sake of me and your father, how much you will suffer, my mother hopes you can be happy!
Women, in the end, you still have to find a man to rely on, if you never marry in order to support me and your father, my mother will feel sorry for you......"
Zihan thought mockingly
Wouldn't it be distressing for me to go and give birth to someone else's surrogate.
At the surrogacy center, the staff asked her with a smile
"Miss, our business here must be built on a voluntary basis. Are you volunteering to be a surrogate? ”
Zihan nodded
"Yes, voluntarily."
— because I don't have any other choice.
When a family is counting on renting out their young daughter's reproductive organs to make money, the so-called voluntary is so ridiculous and ironic.
The preparatory work in the early stage was a hundred times more painful than Zihan imagined, and it was unbearable for an eighteen-year-old girl.
There were hundreds of injections just for the fetal protection injections, and Zihan was seriously ill several times because of its severe side effects.
But there is no right to refuse. If you are told to fight, you will have to fight.
Once the embryo implantation is successful, Zihan must leave the house and live in the maternity dormitory arranged by this institution called "Baizifu" for fully enclosed unified management.
In this maternity dormitory, Zihan met other pregnant women.
She also heard more stories that she couldn't accept.
This is an exploitation of the weak by the strong, which is completely unreasonable, but is packaged as a fair trade with an aura of warmth!
In her opinion, what other "senior" pregnant women told her was creepy just thinking about it, and she didn't even dare to shoot TV series like that, but it was happening in real time.
And it is very likely that Zihan will also be a member of that tragedy.
However, the wood is already in the boat, and a young life has begun to sprout in her body.
There was no turning back for her.
