Tao Ying, born in 1935, had an unfortunate life filled with hardships and setbacks, yet she was also fortunate in her middle age.
Because she has good parents and two good brothers.
His two older brothers joined the war when they were teenagers.
My eldest brother died in 1942, and my second brother died in 1948. Neither of them left any descendants.
Later, the Great Leap Forward came along, and everyone was short of food and clothing. However, Tao Ying's parents were capable, and with the glory brought by her two older brothers, those years were not too difficult.
She also married Wang Dazhu.
Wang Dazhu was grateful to the Tao family for saving his life, and treated Tao Ying very well.
Tao Ying was never allowed to do any heavy work; even household chores were mostly done by Wang Dazhu.
Therefore, although Tao Ying was born in the wrong era, she enjoyed a happiness that ordinary people never experienced.
There were no dramatic events, only ordinary days.
She was loved by her parents, had a considerate husband, and had five children.
The eldest daughter is diligent and sensible, and she can do chores at a very young age. She can also take care of her younger siblings. The eldest son is smart and outstanding. The second son is dull, but he is also filial and sensible. The third son is sweet-talking and quick-witted. The youngest daughter is also obedient.
Unfortunately, the two children were born during that decade.
At that time, jobs were hard to find and impossible to buy. Moreover, there were many children in the family, and even if they wanted to give the job to their children, there was no way to do so. The only option was to send their children to the countryside.
Tao Ying wasn't too worried about her eldest son. He was young and quick-witted, and she could send him more supplies so he would survive.
But I was a little worried about the eldest daughter. She wasn't the kind of girl who knew how to talk; all she did was work.
But I figured if I sent some things to them, I could survive.
Unexpectedly, her eldest daughter's place turned out to be a good place. She kept writing to tell her that there was enough to eat and that she didn't need to worry. Eventually, Tao Ying really stopped worrying.
After all, children can't do things that require hardship without effort; there's a large family to support.
What angered Tao Ying the most was that her eldest daughter, Wang Chunni, had married a country bumpkin.
He had already been begging and pleading with everyone he knew, thinking that he could get the child back in another year, and if all else failed, he would give his job to Wang Chunni.
But unexpectedly, this girl quietly accomplished something big and got married, which made Tao Ying so angry that she didn't contact Wang Chunni for a year.
But I never expected that this child would be even more stubborn than me. If I didn't contact her, she wouldn't contact me either.
They didn't contact me for several years, and didn't even tell me that they had a daughter.
When the college entrance examination was reinstated, her eldest son was admitted to university, but Wang Chunni failed to pass.
For a time, having the eldest son of a college student filled Tao Ying with immense pride, and all her vanity was satisfied.
The eldest daughter-in-law is also a college student, and she has a sweet tongue; every word she says touches his heart.
In addition, she plans to live with her eldest son, so it's natural that she treats him better.
Tao Ying didn't want to think about those messy things. Anyway, the head of the household was there for her, so she just needed to live her life well.
But who knew, damn it, they actually took Wang Dazhu away.
After her parents passed away, Wang Dazhu was Tao Ying's only support. Unable to bear the blow, she fainted.
