work to earn a living

Miao Xingzhou looked at the countless people and slowly began to say, "Go to hell! Go to hell!"

Miao Xingzhou covered his head and woke up from his dream. He went downstairs to write his novel.

Dad got up and said, "Go to sleep!"

Miao Xingzhou: "I'll go to sleep later."

Dad started going upstairs.

She went back to sleep.

In my dream, a rainbow stretched across the sky.

She gradually woke up.

Success comes naturally with effort; as long as you work hard, you will succeed.

She is doing her math homework.

Suddenly there was a knock on the door. She went out and found nothing there; she must have misheard.

Later, when she was home alone, her father asked, "What are you making?"

Miao Xingzhou did not answer.

Dad found it a bit strange.

Then he frowned.

Dad said sternly, "Is dinner ready?!"

She still didn't react.

Her father started making a phone call, then grabbed her and asked, "Are you having an attack?"

Miao Xingzhou: "I didn't have an attack... haha!"

Dad: "Walk by yourself!"

They got into a car.

The father took Miao Xingzhou to the hospital.

Miao Xingzhou gradually regained consciousness four months later.

He spent a year in a mental hospital before his mother came to pick him up and take him home.

Mother: "It's been a year since the illness started. I hope it never happens again for the rest of my life."

When she saw the light of day again, she felt the damp moss growing on her body being dried in the sun...

My sister said, "I bought you a hamburger."

Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."

I'm 27 years old, but I can't even support myself.

I'll also be a burden on my parents...

Mom said, "You can just stay at home. I don't expect you to do anything."

Miao Xingzhou: "I can work now!"

The mother lowered her head wearily and angrily, saying, "The best thing for me is for you not to have an attack."

Sister: "You can do farm work at home."

Mom: "If you have another attack next time, it will be even more serious."

She looked at her hands, which had many needle marks, but she had to have her blood drawn every month.

She said slowly, "I can earn money now."

Mom: "I don't dare to take you like this."

Miao Xingzhou returned home.

She gradually fell asleep.

My sister and mother laughed and said, "Miao Xingzhou sleeps like a 200-pound fat man!"

Miao Xingzhou woke up.

Mom said, "Let's eat."

Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."

The older sister began by saying, "You slept for three hours."

Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."

Sister: "Go tell Dad."

She went upstairs, just as her father came down.

Miao Xingzhou said, "Dad, let's eat."

Dad: "Hmm."

They sat around the pot eating.

Mom said, "Don't think about working. Focus on getting better first."

Miao Xingzhou: "...Hmm."

She started cooking at home.

"Is dinner ready?" Mom asked.

Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."

Dad came downstairs and we started eating together.

Sister: "Are you feeling alright now?"

Miao Xingzhou: "The onset of the disease was indeed quite frightening. But things are better now."

Dad: "Did you throw the medicine?"

Miao Xingzhou: "I might be overthinking things."

Mom angrily put down her chopsticks. "You just like to overthink things! You need to consider how hard your parents work to earn money!"

Miao Xingzhou: "I want to work!"

Mom: "How can you do this right!"

Dad: "Stay home and behave yourself."

She watched the darkness fall, but couldn't fall asleep no matter what she did. She finally drifted off to sleep by playing music.

She woke up to find that her mother and sister had gone to work.

As I watched the shuttle bus drive by, I realized that if I hadn't been sick, I wouldn't be in this situation now.

She felt pain.

When I saw the strawberry tea, I wanted to go, but my dad said, "We've been chatting for two days straight, there's nothing to chat about."

She wrote useless novels on the computer. A long time passed.

Mom breathed a sigh of relief, "Go to work now."

Miao Xingzhou said with a smile, "That's great!"

She began to board the bus and looked around the factory.

My older sister said, "Now you're working too, and you'll be thirty this year."

Miao Xingzhou: "Time flies."

But the dream still hasn't come true; perhaps it's not right for me...

As they were leaving get off work, Mom said, "I just saw a couple and a woman buy two potatoes, and the man also bought one or two potatoes. They said, 'I bought potatoes, and you still bought four!'" Mom finished speaking with a smile.

Miao Xingzhou: "Sister, you eat so little every day, you're really working so hard."

Sister: "What do you mean, 'desperately'?! I just don't eat breakfast."

Miao Xingzhou: "Skipping breakfast will make you sick."

Sister: "Are you cursing me?!"

Miao Xingzhou said, "I didn't. I just don't want to see you get sick and then not have any money."

The older sister glanced at Miao Xingzhou and then continued eating.

Mom went to visit other people's houses, my older sister watched videos and wrote her own novel.

This kind of life is tiring, but it's also very happy.

My sister said, "It's good that you're not having an attack right now."

Miao Xingzhou: "You still care whether I have an attack or not?"

Sister: "When you fall ill, no one will pick you up."

Miao Xingzhou: "I'll pay for it myself!"

Mom: "Isn't your money money? Try to get sick less often."

Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."

Sister: "You can't bear to part with your own money."

Mom: "You're reluctant to part with anyone's money, isn't it all money anyway?"

Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."

Mom: "It's late, go to sleep."

Time passed quickly.

My sister said, "You haven't had a relapse in several years now. How much money have you saved?"

Miao Xingzhou: "Why are you asking this?"

Sister: "I'm curious how much you've saved."

Miao Xingzhou: "Wealth should not be flaunted."

Sister: "Have you saved over 100,000?"

Miao Xingzhou: "I won't talk about it."

Sister: "That means it hasn't arrived yet."

She didn't speak.

The older sister began, "You're even keeping this from your own sister now!"

Miao Xingzhou: "I'll work until I'm fifty, then I'll stop."

Sister: "You'll keep hitting me until you're sixty."

Miao Xingzhou: "Sixty is too much to handle."

Mom: "I'll be sixty in a few years."

Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."

Mom suddenly smiled and said, "Your brother has a child, I'll go take care of the child."

Miao Xingzhou: "Has it been born?"

The mother looked at a photograph with surprise.

It was a baby whose eyes had not yet opened.

The older sister smiled and opened her eyes wide.

Miao Xingzhou: "That's great!"

Mom: "Mmm."

Sister: "Mom, now that you're taking care of the child, does my brother give you money?"

Mother: "He takes care of his child, and of course he pays me."

Mom went home excitedly.

Miao Xingzhou stayed with his sister.

Her older sister went to work, and she also came to the factory.

Looking at the people in the factory, I wonder what will happen if I have another attack.

My sister said she wouldn't send me off, so does that mean I'll die?

She called her mother after get off work and said, "I want to go home."

Mom: "You want to go home, do you know how to buy a ticket? I'll ask someone to buy you one."

Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."

The older sister said, "I can teach you how to buy tickets."

They arrived at the ticket counter, bought a ticket, and Miao Xingzhou asked, "Will you be alright taking care of yourself while I'm gone?"

Sister: "It would be better if you didn't come. I prefer living alone."

Sister: "Now you should go home quickly."

Miao Xingzhou only had 50,000 yuan in savings, which was still quite a lot and could last for several years.

Mom looked at her and said, "Look, how cute!"

Miao Xingzhou suddenly heard voices chatting upstairs, "Are my brother and sister-in-law upstairs?"

Mom: "Yes, Mom, please don't disturb them."

Miao Xingzhou: "You can't hold their children, they're still so young. You should put the children down to sleep."

Mom: "Mmm."

Miao Xingzhou: "What if I have an attack and hurt this child?"

Mom: "Then don't have an attack."

"I can't control this." She looked at the computer.

He slowly said, "I've only been working for three years while I'm writing novels now."

Mom: "Why did you come back?!"

Mom: "I'll get you married off! Go bother someone else."

Miao Xingzhou said urgently, "I will not get married!"

Mom: "Find someone good. Your sister is already married. Aren't you going to get married?"

Miao Xingzhou: "I'm not getting married!"

She looked at her mother's smiling face, seemingly oblivious to her pain.

She started to cry.

Mom sat down, her face filled with anger.

The baby suddenly cried, and the mother took out the bottle and started feeding the baby.

The older brother came downstairs. "Miao Xingzhou, come home too. Come upstairs and sit for a while."

Miao Xingzhou: "Hmm."

Sister-in-law: "My sister's here!"

"Please sit down!"

Brother: "Why don't you get a job?"

Miao Xingzhou: "No one sent him to a mental hospital."

My sister-in-law frowned.

The older brother forced a smile, "How much money have you saved up now?"

Before she could speak, her brother laughed and said, "Working for three years must have been quite a lot. The house is too small. There's Mom and Dad, your sister-in-law and I, and my son's child. Have you considered moving out?"

Miao Xingzhou: "I..."

She didn't say it.

Brother: "I was just kidding. If you want to stay, this is your home too."

The sister-in-law looked at her brother with an angry expression and pinched him lightly.

The older brother said, "It's because my sister-in-law is afraid that your illness will harm the child."

Miao Xingzhou: "I have nowhere to stay."

The older brother frowned.

Sister-in-law: "There are apartments for rent around here. We'll pay a month's rent, and you can move in."

Miao Xingzhou: "Just hold onto one house and rarely go out."

Sister-in-law: "Won't you suffer from holding it in?"

Brother: "Your sister-in-law is right."

Miao Xingzhou: "The rented room is just a small house. I can cook for you."

The older brother started to get impatient: "Mom can cook."

Miao Xingzhou: "I'm not going to live outside forever, am I? I have no money. You're not going to lock me up in a mental hospital for the rest of my life, are you?"

The older brother and sister-in-law looked at each other and smiled.

Miao Xingzhou was very unhappy.

She left.

Brother: "We're planning to buy a house in the city. You can stay in this house as long as you want."

Miao Xingzhou: "Brother, do you have the money to buy a house?"

Brother: "If you can contribute some money, that would be fine too."

Miao Xingzhou: "If I weren't sick, I would definitely provide financial assistance, but now I need treatment."

Brother: "Mm."

She started to get down.

Mom said, "What are you talking about with your brother now?"

Miao Xingzhou: "He didn't say anything."

Mom: "Just don't have an attack right now."

Miao Xingzhou: "I don't want to get sick either!"

Mom: "You shouldn't get sick, and even if you did, it would be noticeable."

Miao Xingzhou started to laugh.

The mother carefully picked up the child and then went upstairs.

My brother and sister-in-law are so happy.

If I weren't sick, I would get married anyway.

Now all she wants to do is focus on writing her novels.
