Zhang You listened to her sobbing softly. Although he didn't know what she had been through, he still felt sad.
She placed her last bag of candy next to her window and tapped twice.
Then he left quietly.
The third day of acupuncture.
For the first time ever, Xiaoxiao smiled sweetly in his sleep, as if he was recalling some beautiful memories.
After the acupuncture, she seemed to be in a good mood and was able to talk about those things with Zhang You and the others.
She was very quiet and awake at this time.
She spoke of the past gently.
“I remembered my name, my origins.
My name is Ning Shi, and I come from a small town in the south.
My family, they don't like me.
They all prefer my elder sister to the vulgar me.
Even if the eldest sister is not as simple as they think.
They still believe in her.”
When she talked about this, her brows furrowed, as if the memory was very painful.
"Most of my childhood was spent under the oppression of my elder sister.
My eldest sister's mother comes from a famous scholarly family in the city.
Both her father and mother favor her.
I am just a concubine's daughter whose biological mother died young.
They beat me, scolded me, and wronged me.
As far as I can remember, I have lived like that for ten years.
Ten years.
I could only live in a dilapidated courtyard, guarding the things my mother left behind and struggling to hold on.
But my elder sister can't stand me and always brings people to the yard to cause trouble every now and then.
All the dowry my mother left for me was snatched away by them.
I can't keep anything.
I didn't even manage to guard the yard where my mother lived.
The yard was smashed to pieces by them.
They also often release poisonous insects and snakes.
I don’t know if it’s God’s will.
I survived the mouths of those poisonous snakes and insects, and even learned to control them.
I have thought more than once that if they bully me again, I will release poisonous snakes to bite them to death."
She spoke of that group of people with intense anger.
They are obviously family.
But treated differently.
Treat her harshly and allow others to bully her.
Clearly, it is flesh and blood.
She quickly relaxed her brows, as if what happened next couldn't be better.
“In my dream, I saw a man.
He looks a bit big and strong. When I saw him for the first time, I thought he would bully others.
With his size, I would be defeated with just one punch."
When she talked about that person, a sweet smile appeared on her face.
“But he’s a really nice guy, with a gentleness that’s different from his appearance.
He said his name was Li Yi.
He lives next door to me.
In the first few years, he lived with his parents at the front line, and after settling down in recent years, he came back.
His father seemed to be a young general. At least when my father and others met him, they didn't dare to hit me in front of him.
He was the one who protected me when we first met.
At that time, I was forcibly taken out of the house by my elder sister and her sisters. They wanted to laugh at me.
They staged a theft drama and falsely accused me in the store.
He showed up when I was being pushed out onto the street and they were all surrounding me, trying to discredit me.
His burly appearance frightened them.
He pulled the shop assistant over and helped me clear my name.
That was the first time I saw my elder sister and the others apologize to me in public."
At this, she laughed.
“After that, we became close friends.
He said I was too weak and easy to be bullied, and he also taught me some self-defense techniques.
He is very gentle.
Always helping me from time to time.
He is obviously not much older than me.
But with him around, I feel like I can do anything without fear.
He is really nice.
After he knew what I was going through, he often comforted me.
I once had some expectations for my family.
However, in ten years, no matter how much expectations there were, they would have all worn out.
But with him around, I seem to have something to look forward to again.
Because he once said: "Not everyone who is related by blood is considered a family. Even if we are not related by blood, I can still be your family. I will protect you, Aning."
He taught me what family is.
He has been family to me ever since.
Later, my elder sister and her friends couldn't stop bullying me, so they became even more aggressive.
It was a clan banquet at that time.
Many elders of the tribe were present.
In front of everyone, my elder sister falsely accused me of poisoning and disfiguring her.
My father slapped me without saying a word.
I still remember the look on their faces when they favored her.
They accused me as elders of the tribe.
Say I'm jealous.
Saying that I have evil intentions.
Saying that I don't repent.
They praised my elder sister's intelligence and belittled my vulgarity.
Not one of them asked me what was going on.
They only believe what they see.
They threatened to shave my head in front of all my ancestors and lock me up in the ancestral hall as punishment.
I felt really disgusted when I looked at their ugly faces.
Since they all say I did it.
If I don't do it, I will be unfaithful to their accusations.
so.
I released poisonous snakes and insects to bite them.
I watched them fall down one by one in front of me, begging for mercy in pain.
No matter how high and mighty they were, there were times when they had to grovel and beg for help.
I ignored them.
