Chapter 14: The Determination to Start Again on Your Own
Yang Sumei got into the quilt after washing and slept until dawn with her head covered. Opening the window, seeing the rising sun was like seeing her newborn self, she took a deep breath of the fresh air after the rain, and shouted into the distance: "Yang Sumei, you have to come on!" "Come on and live for yourself, since you have nothing now, what are you afraid of losing?
She had a hearty breakfast at the breakfast shop opposite the hotel and bought a box of cold medicine to take.
From now on, she must take good care of this broken body, at least let it eat and drink well, and not suffer from hunger and cold.
She never had breakfast out. In the past, she used to get up early to cook for the family, and when she ate it after they had finished, the breakfast was almost cold.
Zhang Xiaobao is her own son, and she is very willing to cook for him, but when she thinks that she has been cooking for her ex-husband and his parents for more than ten years, but she was swept away, she feels that she is particularly worthless.
Yang Sumei is also super good to her mother-in-law, when she broke her leg a few days ago, Yang Sumei took care of her for a long time, washed and cooked for her, wiped her body and changed clothes, but she thought that this was what Yang Sumei should do as a daughter-in-law, and she used Yang Sumei as a nanny all day long.
Yang Sumei insisted on working for them when she had low back pain, and when Yang Sumei was kicked out in the end, no one stood up for her.
Maybe the idea of their family is that when they run out of use, they should throw it away. She then went to the salon and cut her hair short as a way to show herself
The determination to "start all over again". In that dream, she went back to the past, did what she wanted to do but didn't do, and regretted it for the rest of her life, but in reality, we can't go back to the past, we can only change the present and look forward to the future.
Let the past pass and float away with the wind! Regret is also a kind of incomplete beauty, what we can do is to grasp the present, and don't let the current thing become the regret of this life.
Since Yang Sumei only has more than 1,000 yuan on her, she has to find a job, and she is the kind of person who eats and lives.
For so many years, she didn't have any savings at all, not even a bank card. The financial power of the family is held by her ex-husband and mother-in-law, and she is only given the most basic living expenses, and she naively thinks that she will use the least amount of money to make a large table of delicious meals, which will reflect her advantages of being a good housekeeper and will never be abandoned by them.
Thinking that she had once bargained with a vegetable vendor for a dime or two cents for a long time, she felt that she was so stupid, some people no matter how good you are to him, you can't move him, but after a long time, he will take this kind of goodness for granted.
She looked at the tall buildings and the bustling crowd everywhere, and was a little overwhelmed. She strolls down the streets, and when she sees a job posting in front of the store, she stops and waits.
She didn't graduate from junior high school, she was already 40 years old, and she couldn't find a suitable job with no skills.
The only job she ever had in her life was when she was 18 years old, working in a garment factory for 4 years, and now she may not even be able to enter the factory.
She didn't give up, and finally saw a job posting for dishwasher in front of a restaurant, with no age limit and food and lodging.
She was a little excited, but also a little apprehensive, because she had never tried before, and she was introduced to work in the factory by a fellow countryman, and now she is the only one, fighting alone for an unknown future.
