Chapter 106: The Past (1)

Mrs. Wang came to Wang's house when she was three years old.

The three-year-old has a limited memory, and now all she can remember is some vague images, and even she can't tell whether it's true or not.

But there is one thing that she has been trying to remember and never dare to forget, that is, her real name is Ye Linlan.

When she was a child, she was afraid that she would forget her name and never find her family again, so she repeated it all the time.

In my memory, there was a kind and beautiful young woman who always smiled at herself and called herself Lan'er affectionately.

There are also groups of servants, pavilions and pavilions in the courtyard, rockeries and flowing water, but at that time it was too small, no matter how detailed it is, I can't remember it, but it can be seen that she was definitely born in a rich and noble family.

In the remaining memories, one day there was a shortage of soldiers, shouting and killing everywhere, and I didn't know how to get separated from my family while walking, and a mother-in-law took herself to hide in Tibet.

The mother-in-law was seriously injured in the chaos, she remembered that the mother-in-law had shed a lot of blood, and as soon as she closed her eyes, she seemed to be able to see the blood all over her body, and she handed herself over to the Wang family when she was dying, and she died before she even had time to tell the Wang family more.

Mrs. Xin and Mr. Wang have not had children for five years after they have been married, and they see that the girl is carved in pink and jade, and she is dressed richly and richly, and there are a lot of valuable jewelry on her body, so she readily agreed to adopt the girl, and promised to take good care of her, and when the doll grows up, she will choose a good family to marry out, and promise not to teach her to suffer.

She didn't want to change her name, but Mrs. Xin was afraid that she would be found by her family and block the way to make a fortune, so she was stunned and forcibly changed her name to Wang Hongxiu.

The Wang family was originally very poor, it was a famous broken settlement in Wangjia Village, after adopting Xiaohong Embroidery, relying on the pawn to sell the jewelry on Xiaohong Embroidery's body gradually got better, and the people in the village were amazed, saying that Xiaohong Embroidery brought blessings to his family.

In the first two years, because the old couple did not have their own children, it was not bad to treat red embroidery, at least to make people full, and they did not scold at will.

But two years later, Mrs. Xin, who had been infertile for many years, became pregnant, and the two of them were so happy that they couldn't find the north.

The two of them only cared about being happy, so they gradually ignored the little red embroidery.

The people in the village couldn't stand it, and persuaded Mrs. Xin to be kind to Xiaohongxiu, saying that maybe she could get pregnant because of the blessing brought by Xiaohongxiu, otherwise why didn't she get pregnant for so many years before.

Mrs. Xin didn't think so, she only felt that this was her fate with her children, and what happened to Guan Xiaohong.

Later, the child fell to the ground in anticipation, it was a male baby, that is, an iron pillar, and now the little red embroidery completely stood aside.

The old couple could no longer see Xiaohongxiu in their eyes, and they were full of only their own son Tiezhu, but they felt that Xiaohongxiu was an eyesore everywhere, and it was simply a white rice eater.

The family can't have white rice, so the miserable days of Xiaohongxiu began completely.

Because Mrs. Xin had to be confined, she couldn't do laundry and cook, so this stall fell on Xiaohongxiu.

At that time, it was the cold winter wax moon, Xiao Hongxiu tried to use stones to knock open the ice on the surface of the river, and her little hand reached into the cold and biting ice water to wash the diaper for the iron pillar, and the cold water pierced the human bones painfully, as if a sharp knife was pierced in the hand.

But Xiaohong embroidery didn't dare to stop, because if she couldn't finish washing, she would be beaten.

A neighbor's aunt couldn't stand it anymore, so she helped wash two diapers, and Rao is adult's hands were also red from the cold, and she couldn't stand it, so she boiled a big pot of hot water, mixed with hot water to wash the diapers.

But the aunt can only help occasionally, and it is impossible to help Xiaohong embroidery every day.

After a few days of washing, Xiaohongxiu's hands were frostbitten, as long as she rubbed the diaper hard, the blood would flow, and when it was cold and painful, she especially missed the kind young woman who smiled at her in her dream, she knew that it was her mother.

But where are you, mother, Lan'er really misses you, especially thinks, if you don't come again, Lan'er will almost forget what you look like.

The pain in her hands was unbearable, and Xiaohongxiu wanted to boil hot water to wash diapers like the neighbor's aunt, but Mrs. Xin didn't let her, saying that it was a waste of firewood, anyway, it was a worthless girl, which was so expensive.

failed to boil hot water, but provoked a scolding.

Although she is young, she has gradually figured out the temper of Mrs. Xin in the past few years, this is a ruthless person, and she will not feel sorry for herself at all.

Fortunately, although his adoptive father, Old Man Wang, did not treat himself very well, he never scolded himself.

So she went to find the old man Wang again, but the old man Wang sighed and said:

"Hongxiu, you are six years old this year, you are a big girl, your mother gave birth to a younger brother, you have to be sensible, don't make your mother angry."

Xiaohongxiu completely understands that her adoptive father is also unreliable.

So she no longer begged anyone, nor did she ask for the slightest love from these two people, gritted her teeth and washed diapers, thinking that winter would always pass, and it would be good to wait for the weather to warm up.

Sure enough, no matter how cold the winter is, it will pass, and the ice will become thinner from thick to thin until it completely melts.

The spring water has gradually warmed up, ducks are playing in the river, and the little girl is squatting by the river and struggling to wash diapers.

When she came to Wang's house at the age of three, she was a chubby pink doll, and now she is more than six years old, but she is like a little radish head, with a yellow face and thin muscles, thinner than girls of the same age in the village, wearing patched gray clothes, and a pair of big eyes look so incongruous on a small face.

Even though she has thin arms and legs, even though her face is yellow and thin, the stubbornness in the little girl's eyes makes her whole person full of strength.

The little girl looked up at the sky, just as a flock of sparrows flew overhead.

She was suddenly envious of the sparrows.

Sparrows are small, but they have wings and can fly freely in the sky and go wherever they want.

She also wished she could have a pair of wings, be able to fly away from this home, and find her biological parents.

But she is still too young, she doesn't have a penny on her body, her small arms and legs, she can walk to the town at most on her own, and she doesn't know where her parents are, how to find it, don't be abducted by a kidnapper before she finds her parents.

She really wants to grow up quickly, and when she washes clothes, she listens to those big sisters who say that she can leave home after getting married.

"Hongxiu, your mother called you at home, go back quickly, don't make your mother angry, and beat you again."

A call interrupted her thoughts, it was the kind aunt next door.

Yes, her beatings are commonplace, and everyone in the village knows about it.

If you cook late, you will be beaten, if you do less and more, if you don't wash diapers, if you walk slowly, you will be beaten, if you cry, you will be beaten, if you have no money at home, and if Xin's mood is bad, she will be beaten.

She's too young to really have a way to resist.

You can't run, if you run away when you are beaten, you will be beaten harder when you come back, and you can't cry, otherwise it will seem that your adoptive mother Xin is too mean and vicious, and if you cry, you will be torn out of your mouth, or even sewn up.
