Another day begins.

Fu Xiao opened his eyes from his sleep and looked out the window to see that the weather today was not very good and it was likely to rain.

He lay back in bed and sighed in annoyance, "I hate rainy days the most. I can't even go out."

I dozed off in bed for a while, and when I heard some noise outside, I got up and got dressed.

I pushed open the door and saw Grandpa Fu sweeping the yard. I walked over and took the broom from him, "Grandpa, let me sweep. You can go and take a rest."

Grandpa Fu smiled and said, "Xiaoxiao, don't move. Let your second brother sweep."

As he said this, he handed the broom to Fu Hong who had just opened the door.

The two stood in the living room and watched Fu Hong sweeping the floor. Grandpa Fu looked at the sky and said with a smile, "It's going to rain, so we need to clean the yard more."

Grandpa Fu looked at Fu Yu who was walking out of the room, and quickly motioned for the two to follow him, "Come, let's practice boxing..."

Not long after they finished exercising, it started to rain. It was just sporadic drizzle at first, but it got heavier in the afternoon. The whole family stayed at home and stayed at home.

The family hid in the living room, each grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and started gossiping.

The speaker was Ms. Li Xiufen, and she talked about nothing more than a daughter-in-law who was unfilial, or a son who forgot his mother after getting married.

When talking about these topics, Fu Xiao's eyes would always turn to his two brothers involuntarily, and he would look away when they glared at him.

"Oh, I saw Mrs. Qian beating those two granddaughters again last time. The little girls, who were only five or six years old, were beaten until their bodies were covered with bruises. It was so pitiful." Li Xiufen said with a sigh.

After saying that, he looked at Fu Wei Bo and said, "You have to take care of this matter. If anything goes wrong, you as the captain will be held responsible."

Fu Weibo: "How do you know I didn't do anything? I told her almost every time I saw her, but she never changed. What's the use?"

Li Xiufen rolled her eyes at him, "You shouldn't have told Mrs. Qian. Go find her husband and son and give them a good scolding. If it happens again, deduct your work points. If that doesn't work, send her to the police station. Do you think she dares not to listen?"

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

Fu Xiao was a little curious, and looked at Li Xiufen and asked softly, "Aunt, what's going on?"

Li Xiufen sighed and began to talk about Mrs. Qian.

In general, it is a story about a grandmother who favors boys over girls and does not treat her granddaughter as a human being.

In fact, the phenomenon of favoring boys over girls is very common in rural areas. If a new bride does not give birth to a boy, she will feel ashamed.

As members of the same family, there is competition among sisters-in-law. Whoever gives birth to a boy first will feel superior in her husband's family, and her mother-in-law will value her more.

Although she didn't understand this kind of behavior as if there was an heir to the throne in the family, it seemed to be a common phenomenon, not to mention in the countryside, but also in the county town. Only a few families would treat daughters and sons equally. Most girls were brought up at home to get married in exchange for dowry. What's worse, even if a daughter gets married, she would have to empty her own family to subsidize her son.

Many daughters have been brainwashed at home for a long time and it is difficult for them to change their mindsets. They agree to many unreasonable requests. In the end, their own children live a miserable life, but they have to support their younger brothers from their mother's side.

This is what is called the "Fu Di Demon".

(What I said is a true portrayal. The author was born in 1992. Although my family is harmonious and my parents have always treated me and my brothers and sisters equally without any bias, there were still many cases of favoring boys over girls in the village at that time. Many of them were my classmates. Their experiences told me that this kind of thing is not a story on TV. Many stories in novels are adapted from real events.... If a person can encounter so many examples around him, then there are so many people in the country, and there are many more backward villages. Doesn't this mean that this kind of situation is more common? It can be seen from this...)

The rain lasted for a whole day and gradually stopped just after dinner.

She stood in the living room, looking at the wet ground in the yard, and sighed softly.

Fu Yu, who was standing beside him, heard the sigh and chuckled. Fu Xiao looked up at him. He restrained his smile and said softly, "Do you want to go up the mountain to pick mushrooms tomorrow?"

Fu Xiao's eyes lit up slightly, and he was about to nod, but then he remembered something, shook his head, and said, "Chen Xingzhou should be back. I have to go to the county town and give him the antidote."

Fu Yu was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Oh, has it been a week? I forgot... I'll go with you tomorrow."

The two returned to their rooms. Fu Xiao thought that after delivering the medicine to him tomorrow, if he had nothing else to do, he should come back early and go up the mountain to pick mushrooms.

As I was thinking, I became drowsy and before I knew it, I fell into a particularly deep sleep.

...

The next morning

The first thing Fu Xiao did when he opened his eyes was to look out through the window. Seeing that it was a sunny day today, his mood finally improved a little.

I put on my clothes and got off the kang, pushed open the door, and saw Grandpa Fu standing in the yard.

She discovered a strange phenomenon. No matter how early she thought she got up, Grandpa Fu would always leave the room before her. She began to wonder if Grandpa Fu also had psychic powers, as he was always one step ahead of her.

"Xiaoxiao, are we going to the county town today?" Grandpa Fu said with a smile.

"Yes, Grandpa. I'll bring you some big meat buns when I come back."

Grandpa Fu pinched her face and said with a smile: "You don't need to bring anything. We have everything at home. Just be careful and take your eldest brother with you."

Fu Xiao smiled and said, "Okay, Grandpa."

Li Xiufen poked her head out from the kitchen and said, "Xiaoxiao, take the remaining bacon to your uncle. He hasn't been home for a long time. He must be too busy."
