Chapter 2 Enemies

There are five people in our family, my father is an art teacher at Linjiang Normal School, and my mother is a music teacher at the primary school attached to the school. My sister is a third-grade student at the attached elementary school. My brother is 5 years old and a middle class student in the kindergarten attached to the primary school. I was the second in line, and I have been living in the countryside with my grandmother since I gave birth, and I have been home for less than half a year.

My grandmother said that when my mother gave birth to me, she had postpartum fever and almost killed her mother. My mother said, "She and I are enemies of life and death, either she dies or I die." "Although Dad didn't believe this, he naturally hated me when he saw Mom's condition.

I was born at 5:10 a.m. on the sixth day of the lunar month, and my grandmother said that it was snowing a lot. The whole heaven and earth became white, as bright as day. When my mother was sending my hair at four o'clock, my father and grandmother were in a hurry, because my due date was still half a month away. Unexpectedly, on such a snowy night, I anxiously disturbed their dreams, wanting to see this cold world.

Since I was pregnant with me, my mother has firmly believed that I am a son and an authentic heir of the Yi family. When she learned from her weakness that I was a baby girl who was just four pounds and eight taels, she was so angry that she had lost all her hair. Dad was disappointed when he saw me. My grandmother told me all these things intermittently.

When my mother and daughter came home from the hospital, my mother didn't want to see me, let alone breastfeed me. One day, she had a whim, what if I died? So she implemented her idea, and only wrapped me in a thin cloth and put it on a wooden board, and saw if I would freeze to death on a moon day of minus 2 degrees Celsius. When my grandmother found me, I was already purple from the cold, and my grandmother rescued me. That day, my grandmother took me to the most famous fortune teller in Linjiang to tell me a hexagram, and the fortune teller said that I was rich and noble, and I would be rich and glorious in the future.

At this point, my grandmother unswervingly took me to her home in Qianjiawan, Qingshui Town, rural area. My grandmother lived with my uncle, who was studying in the provincial capital and didn't come home often, so she was actually the only one in the family.

Grandma was a listed landlord, but she had read books, and traditional Confucianism took root in her heart, especially believing in the idea of retribution for good and evil, so she never bullied the long-term workers and tenant farmers in the family. After liberation, she really got a good reward, and no one in the poor peasants in the production team bullied her, but there were often people to help her.

But her husband did not hesitate to divorce her under the wave of freedom to marry. The traditional idea of marriage also took root in her heart, the words of the matchmaker, and the order of her parents made two unrelated people husband and wife. Before marriage, she only knew that the other party was studying at a university in the provincial capital. The in-laws are the big landowners of Qingshui Town, and they have been poor in food and clothing all their lives. Her parents thought that she had found a good family affair, and her life was full and blessed.

She had fantasized about her husband's appearance countless times, but she never thought that there was really a person with the face of Pan An in this world, and this person was her husband, and at that moment her soul was taken away by him. Thinking that when he lifted his hijab, he should be amazed by her beauty and capture his heart, it should not be difficult. When she was a student at a girls' school, her classmates gave her the nickname of a flower in the girls' middle school. The one who had just turned sixteen and proposed his marriage broke through the threshold. However, no one lifted her head and she waited for a while. The husband ran away.

Five years after his in-laws cut off his husband's economic lifeline, he went home under the coercion and lure of his in-laws and reluctantly got married to her. After the round house, the resentment of five years disappeared in an instant, she really fell in love with her husband, his gentle and elegant temperament, tall and straight figure, even if she was angry, she wanted to be close to him. Three days later, the husband returned to the provincial capital with the money his mother-in-law had promised him. So far she has Qian Mei, her daughter.

Five years later, her husband came home again because of the death of her father-in-law, and her mother-in-law was heartbroken and told her husband that the Qian family could not have no successor. Her husband took the initiative to have sex with her again. This time she really has a son, Qian Li.

At this point, the mother-in-law no longer threatened, and her coerced marriage has come to an end. She is content, she has both children and daughters, and she is blessed.

Everything changed, and in the autumn of four or six years, my mother-in-law passed away without warning. The husband completely ignored his two children and took her woman home to mourn. After the funeral, her husband ransacked the house, sold the land at a low price, and left her a yard for the sake of her children. At that moment, she only felt that the sky was falling, and all thoughts were lost, and with the intervention of the clansmen, her husband left her two acres of thin fields to make a living. She fell seriously ill, and in the days that followed, she relied on the jewelry she wore on her body to make up for her life.

She knows the importance of knowledge, no matter how difficult it is, she sends her two children to school, and their two children are talented and intelligent, and their exam scores are always the first. Her daughter wants to go to the best university, but she can't afford to support her. For this reason, the stubborn daughter and her younger brother walked hundreds of kilometers to find her husband, who was teaching at a university in the provincial capital. Once humanity and conscience are extinguished, there is no turning back. Her husband is such a person. Qian, a dignified university professor, rejected all his daughter's requests, and asked his proud disciple Yi Tianshu to receive him for him, and Yi Tianshu, who was already twenty-four years old, fell in love with Qian Mei, who had just turned sixteen, and gave her an idea for her, so that she could give up her plan to be admitted to a prestigious school, and she could be admitted to the middle normal school without living expenses and graduate as a teacher. Qian Mei looked at the Yushu in the wind, and the gentle and considerate Yitian Tree was like a ray of sunshine shining into her bleak life. She listened to him. "My Fair Lady, good gentleman. They fell in love and soon settled on a relationship.

Since then, Qian Mei has been full of hatred for her biological parents, hating her mother for giving birth to them and being unable to give them a complete home. Therefore, when she got married, she had only one title left for her mother.

My birth made my mother and grandmother intersect, my father was reluctant to give me away, and my mother did not want to see me, so I compromised and handed me over to my grandmother, which became their best choice.

My grandmother raised me with rice milk, soybeans, and all kinds of edible foods. The first thing I learned to say was my grandmother, not my mom or dad. They never looked at me, but my dad would send my grandmother my living expenses on time every month.

When I was three years old, I was sick, I couldn't eat, my stomach was swollen, I was tired and huddled in bed, and my already thin body was tortured to the point that I couldn't take shape. Grandma tried her best but couldn't get back. It was a scoundrel that my grandmother carried me home with a backpack and asked my mother to see me. My mother only glanced at me and called my one-year-old brother to my sister out, and my father took me and my grandmother to Linjiang Central Hospital.

After being examined by doctors at Linjiang Central Hospital, he was diagnosed with acute hepatitis and required hospitalization. My dad paid the medical bills and left my grandmother to take care of me. I never saw my parents. I was discharged from the hospital three days later.

My grandmother took me back to the dormitory of the normal school, and at the gate, she hesitated and walked back and forth several times, and finally left me in the doorman's hut and walked in by herself.

When my grandmother came out, she had some food in her back, and she took my hand and said, "Yiyi, this is your home, you will study and live here in the future, and now my mother has just given birth to a younger brother, so I can't take you." When you come back when you study, your parents bring you a lot of food to eat. After saying that, she peeled a white rabbit toffee for me and stuffed it into my mouth.

Sugar is so sweet, and since then I have remembered that there is sugar where there are parents.
