Chapter 1 The return of the school's sister
Because of my poor grades, I dropped out of junior high school and started to support my younger sister with my parents.
On the day she graduated from 985 University and came home, my parents and I felt that after so many years, we finally worked hard, just waiting for my sister to find a good job and marry a good family, and it was not in vain for my years of hard work.
However, she brought back a boyfriend, and when I came home, my heart was half cold.

Before my sister graduated from 985 University and returned to the county, her parents were worried about her work, and they had a lot of relationships and wanted to find her a good job.
However, my parents called me:
"Xiaowen, your sister came home this weekend and said that she was going to bring her boyfriend with her, and called you to go home for a meal and meet people by the way."
Listening to the joy on the phone from my parents, I guess my future brother-in-law must be an amazing person.
I am happy in my heart, after all, it is my own sister, she graduated from a prestigious school, I have always been proud to have such a sister in the slaughterhouse, and I am often envied by some aunts.
"Xiaowen, how old is your sister this year? Is there a target?'
"Oh, my son is about the same age as your sister, and he has bought a house in the county seat.
Aunt Liu in the factory was full of smiles.
She is a well-known picker in the factory, and she is harsh and mean to others, and she is not much better for me. Ever since I knew that I had a younger sister who was about to graduate from a prestigious school, she often stuffed me with something and begged me to match their son, and I smiled and agreed, but I didn't care about it.
Half of my life has spent the best of my life in this greasy and dirty slaughterhouse, how can my sister's good conditions intersect with others.
My sister should be sitting in the office, reading the newspaper, drinking tea, and inviting me to a popular café for a cup of coffee on the weekend, even though it is worse than Chinese medicine.
During the holidays, my brother-in-law's family invited us over for a reunion dinner, and I was satisfied.
I took a good day off for the weekend and went home with a bunch of sausages and pork head meat that the aunts had privately given me, plus a bag of pigs in the water.
Mom happily opened the door for me and took the bag in my hand.
"Your brother-in-law looks quite fair, and he doesn't look like an ordinary person."
Mom pulled me aside and whispered:
"It's still your sister who has a vision, and your dad and I really like it the more we look at it!"
Infected by the atmosphere, I glanced into the living room and saw the man chatting with my father.
I straightened out my clothes, happily leaned over to my sister in the kitchen, and greeted me warmly:
"Sister, I'm back! It's been a hard journey!'
My sister, as cold as ever, gave me a look.
"Hmm"
I don't care at all, after all, it's the hope of our family, and I've always been going to ignore her little nature, ignoring the dislike of me in her eyes.
My sister turned her head to look at the pig I brought back into the water, and covered her nose in disgust:
"What is this? You're going to give me such a disgusting thing when I come back?'
I sneered:
"Didn't you love food before?"
My sister frowned:
"This kind of garbage is what people like you love to eat."
In the past, the conditions at home were not good, and the only oil and water was the pigs I brought back from the factory, and my parents praised me for having a good job.
Now that my sister is about to soar, I have forgotten the pain of poverty in the past few years when my family was in order to provide her with education
I lowered my eyes and pursed my lips.
Mom chimed in:
"This kid, all nonsense, this is a good thing, wash it and brine it out, and the fragrance can waft out ten miles away."
Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, my mother hurriedly pushed me to bring the cut fruit plate over and said hello to the tall man:
"Here, eat some fruit."
Mom reminded at the right time:
"His name is Zhang Yunhao, just call him Xiao Zhang."
"This is Xiaorong's sister, Xiaowen."
Mom took the initiative to introduce.
The man who was chatting with my dad turned to look at me and smiled and nodded:
"Hello!"
I looked at the man in front of me carefully, and my heart suddenly cooled, how could this boyfriend look so similar to the director of our slaughterhouse, known as Aunt Tu's husband?

My heart tightened, and my face remained silent.
After a few simple greetings, I went to the kitchen to give my mother a hand, and while picking vegetables, I observed the situation in the living room, and took the opportunity to buy soy sauce, I pulled my mother out.
Along the way, my mother chattered non-stop:
"Buy a soy sauce, why are you still pulling me?" It's not that they don't know the way.'"
With an anxious face, I stopped at the door of the shop:
"Mom, do you remember what I told you about our factory director?"
Mom coughed lightly and looked at me angrily:
"Pulling me out just to talk about your factory director?"
I nodded:
"Think about it!"
"As you said, the family has money, there is someone behind it, and the second aunt Tu who is the factory director at a young age, but her temper is not very good?"
I looked around, saw no one, and said:
"Yes, he doesn't have a husband, it is said that he relied on her to get a position in the agency in his early years."
"That time she brought a little girl in the factory, saying that she had seduced her husband, and stripped her naked and threw it into a pond full of pig manure, and when the little girl was fished out, she was covered with a stench and almost drowned."
Mom nodded:
"Well, I have the impression that you remember you saying that the girl went crazy later, hey, that's pathetic."
"No, what are you telling me about this, let's go back and cook, there are still guests at home!"
My expression was like I was about to cry:
"Mom, my sister's boyfriend seems to be the husband of the second aunt Tu."
My mother was stunned for a long time, looked at me, then looked in the direction of home, and grabbed me suddenly:
"Wen, you can't be jealous of your sister to make up this nonsense for your mother, right?"
I patted my thigh and said anxiously:
"Mom, what do you think I am?"
"My sister was confessed by me, and I hope more than anyone else that she can have a good future and a good home, but this doesn't mean that our family can provoke someone like Aunt Tu!"
Seeing that I didn't look like I was lying, my mother gave up her legs and slowly sat down on the ground.
It took me a lot of effort to help her up, and comforted:
"Calm down, Mom, our main thing now is to confirm whether this person is really the husband of our factory director, don't make a misunderstanding and make jokes."
Mom listened:
"Yes, yes, let's make sure first, in case we recognize the wrong person!"
I said in my heart, eight or nine is not far from ten, that time Aunt Tu went crazy, I saw a figure from a distance and squatted in the factory director's office and didn't dare to come out.
Isn't that person the same person as my sister's boyfriend!
There is a fierce woman in the family, and he dares to provoke my sister, I am really angry, and I am afraid of being in a hurry, for fear that Aunt Tu will spread her anger on us.
But in the face of my mother, I didn't dare to say anything, so I bought soy sauce and went home.
At the dinner table, my mother sat opposite Zhang Yunhao and asked with a smile:
"Xiao Zhang, the first time you came, Xiao Rong didn't send a message to the family, and I don't know what you like to eat."
"You're going to eat these dishes!"
Zhang Yunhao's voice is like a spring breeze:
"Auntie, when you see the outside, Xiaorong and I will become a family immediately, this family doesn't speak two words, you can eat anything, I don't choose."
Mom continued:
"And who are you in your family now?" Where do you live?'
Sister tugging at mom's sleeve:
"Oh, Mom, you check your account!"
Zhang Yunhao said:
"My parents are gone, I'm an only child, and now I'm working as a secretary for the secretary of the county office."
I hurriedly answered, and said with a smile:
"Yo, that's under one man, above ten thousand! We, Xiaorong, are blessed.'"
When my mother heard the word "mechanism", the expression on her face stiffened, and slowly cracked like a turtle shell, tearing out a smile that was more ugly than crying.

After a relatively wordless meal, my sister sent Zhang Yunhao downstairs.
Mom sat down in her chair as if she had been drained of all her strength.
My dad also quipped:
"Why, seeing such an excellent son-in-law, you are so happy that you can't find the north?"
And he said to me,
"Xiaowen, you should also hold on tightly, your sister has a partner, and you don't have a boyfriend in your thirties."
"You have worked hard for your sister and this family all these years, and now that your sister has a good home, you should also think about yourself."
I held back the words that were about to blurt out, and pulled my mom to clean up the dinner table, and my dad went to smoke.
It took a while for my sister to come back from outside humming a song.
Mom Heads Up:
"Gone?"
"Uh-huh......
My sister sat on the sofa, playing with her newly bought mobile phone.
Dad stepped forward in surprise:
"Yo, that's a rarity. Where did it come from?'
My sister said proudly:
"Yun Hao sent it to me, saying that it will be convenient to contact in the future."
"That's a lot of money, isn't it?"
"It's a few thousand......
Actually, it's only about 1,800 yuan, but for me, who only has a salary of 60, it is a luxury.
I rubbed my hands together and said:
"Sister, this Zhang Yunhao, how did you meet?"
My sister replied without raising her head:
"Before graduation, don't you submit your resume and look for a job! I saw that there was a vacancy in the county, so I wanted to try it."
"I didn't expect it to be Yun Hao who received me, and after coming and going, I became familiar with it."
The younger sister bowed her head shyly:
"He said he wanted me to be his girlfriend, and he arranged all my jobs, which is a quiet position."
"Ah, you've been back several times?"
"That's right, I was busy looking for a job, so I didn't come back, thinking that I would tell my parents when the dust settled."
"I'm also in the county seat, why don't you come to me!"
My sister pouted:
"Your slaughterhouse stinks, and I'm afraid I'll go in and dirty my newly bought shoes."
After saying that, she also wiped the toe of her shoes decently, which was quite shiny.
Look at the old shoes on my feet that have already shed their skin, they still can't be worn by others and given to me.
After all these years of saving money for this family, I don't seem to get a trace of respect and gratitude from my sister.
Looking at my parents' aging bodies, after my father went out for a walk, I couldn't hold back after all:
"Sister, your boyfriend looks like the husband of our factory director."
"You didn't know him a little better?"
"It's so easy to socialize with your family?"
My sister stood up and pointed at my nose and scolded:
"Zhou Xiaowen, your conscience is rotten, isn't it? You even say that I'm a junior who destroys other people's families?'
"You've been struggling in the mud for more than 30 years, and you can't see me, right?"
I was about to explain, but my mother stopped me:
"Text, say a few words" pushed me into the room.
"If you don't have any evidence, don't say that your sister doesn't believe it, and I don't believe it either!"
Okay, don't you want proof!
On this day, while my sister was out, I pulled my mother into the car to the county seat, and the two of us sneakily squatted in the alley opposite Zhang Yunhao's unit.
"Wen, could it be that you are mistaken, what if not?"
"Oh, Mom, wouldn't it be better to admit your mistake! You've got a good son-in-law!'
Mom instantly cheered up:
"Yes, yes, it's better to be wrong, it's better to be wrong."
But soon, we were both disappointed.
There was a car at the end of the street, and as soon as I looked at the license plate number, I pointed it to my mother:
"Look, this is our factory director's car."
The factory director waited at the door for a while, and Zhang Yunhao came out.
The director stepped forward and took his arm and said:
"Dad's birthday today, call me to pick you up and go back for dinner."
Zhang Yunhao said:
"You're just a phone call! It's been a hard trip.'"
The factory director smiled on his face slightly:
"I'm afraid you're busy with work and tired, so it's not a hassle to pick up this trip, get in the car quickly."
After saying that, the two of them got into the car.
I pointed to the car and said to my mother:
"See, this Zhang Yunhao is really a married man, the husband of our factory director."
Seeing that there was no sound behind me, I looked back and saw that it was my mother's miserable white face.
