Shi Nian left in the afternoon.

She has been with the grass for six hours.

The two people are clearly more than ten years apart in age.

Yet they always have so much to say.

Shi Nian almost never received any love or care from her parents.

Even at such a young age, she has to shoulder the heavy responsibility of taking care of her grandparents.

Therefore, she possesses a maturity and aloofness beyond her years.

But when facing small grasses, she rarely reveals the innocent and naive side of a girl her age.

After Shi Nian left, Xiao Cao huddled in her bedroom looking at one sheet of paper after another.

The paper was covered with writing.

Shi Nian copied it from a book.

The little grass was mesmerized.

So much so that she forgot one thing.

Cooking for my older brother and sister-in-law.

Xiaocao started cooking for her older brother and sister-in-law when she was five years old.

Back then, I couldn't reach the stove, so I stood on a small stool.

And although today is her first day after being discharged from the hospital, it is no exception.

Even her sister-in-law was already complaining.

They said that Xiaocao had been in the hospital for so long, and a lot of things at home had fallen behind.

......

Xiaocao's brother and sister-in-law arrived home at six o'clock in the evening.

When I arrived home, I didn't see any grass.

Sister-in-law Li Leqin's eyes flashed with suspicion: "Do you think Xiaocao has been enjoying herself in the hospital for so long that she won't even cook dinner?"

Brother Xiaocao confidently declared, "How could that be? Xiaocao is the most sensible child; she'll definitely have dinner ready."

Li Leqin didn't say anything then, but just snorted through her nose.

However, when Little Grass got to the dining table, he found it was empty.

Nothing was done.

Little Grass was dumbfounded.

Li Leqin's eyes widened, and then a surge of anger welled up inside her: "I knew it! She'd been enjoying herself in the hospital for too long! Now she wants to be a pampered housewife! She doesn't even cook dinner!"

When Li Leqin found Xiaocao, she was even more furious!

The little grass didn't cook at all!

Still holed up in my room, looking at the books made up of sheets of paper bound together.

The little grass was so engrossed in watching that it didn't even notice its brother and sister-in-law had arrived.

Li Leqin stepped forward and snatched the book from Xiaocao's hands: "You little brat, you're discharged from the hospital and you still don't cook! You really think you're some kind of pampered mistress! You expect me to cook for you, don't you!"

Li Leqin glanced at the sheets of paper, covered with dense writing.

Li Leqin is illiterate.

But since Xiaocao was distracted from cooking because of this.

Then it's not a good thing!

Without saying a word, Li Leqin was about to tear up the thick piece of paper in her hand!

Let the little grass see!

What the hell are you looking at!

They won't even cook!

The world has turned upside down!

Little Grass's heart was breaking when she saw her sister-in-law about to tear up the paper!

Because that's not ordinary paper!

That was a book that Nian Nian wrote for her by hand, word by word!

That was Nian Nian opening a door to another world for her!

Little Grass pounced and snatched the paper from her sister-in-law's hand.

She cried out, "Sister-in-law! Don't tear it! You can't tear it!"

Li Leqin was stunned for a moment, then became furious.

She shouted at Little Grass Brother, "See that! See that! I was saying your sister had enjoyed so much in the hospital and now she wanted to be a rich lady! Wasn't that right!"

After saying that, Li Leqin stepped forward and said, "You've really gone too far! Give it to me right now! If I don't tear this mess to shreds today, I'm not a Li!"

Xiaocao usually obeys her sister-in-law Li Leqin's every word.

But today, I don't know what happened.

She acted as if she hadn't heard Li Leqin's words, and instead hid the stack of papers tightly in her bosom!

Just like hiding a rare treasure!

Seeing that Xiaocao dared to disobey her, Li Leqin grabbed Xiaocao's ear and yelled, "You little brat! Will you give it to me or not?"

The little grass's ears were all pulled red!

She clenched her teeth tightly, but refused to let go!

Brother Little Grass tried to snatch the stack of papers from Little Grass's hands, but he couldn't!

"Little Grass! What are you doing!" Little Grass's brother's face darkened when he saw her like this: "Quickly give it to your sister-in-law! Don't make her angry!"

The little grass seemed not to hear!

Seeing this, Li Leqin felt as if a bucket of oil had been poured over her. She gritted her teeth and said, "See that! Your sister won't listen to you anymore! Back in the hospital, that police chief actually came to apologize to your sister! Your sister doesn't even know who she is anymore! She thinks she's someone important!"

"Let me tell you, you little brat, I've heard that the police chief came to apologize because he angered Guanyin Bodhisattva. That's why he condescended to come and apologize to you!"

"Who do you think you are? You're nothing but a fart! You deserve to get hit and killed! People will even complain that you're bad luck and dirty their car!"

"......."

Li Leqin's words struck Xiaocao's heart like a hammer blow.

It also reminded her of the words she had seen today.

I read aloud the text I had copied for her.

All people are equal.

Suddenly, a strong emotion arose in the little grass's heart.

This emotion caused her to explode.

She cried out, both heartbroken and agitated, "I may not be anyone, but I am still a person! Even if he is the police chief, it's his fault for hitting me! Because all people are equal!"

"He did something wrong! He should apologize!"

Upon hearing this, Li Leqin and Brother Xiaocao's expressions immediately changed!

Brother Little Grass immediately covered Little Grass's mouth, panicking, "Little Grass! Where did you learn these words! Who told you that people are equal! How can we compare to the police chief!"
