The fates of the siblings were dramatically changed because of the actions of their third brother, Su Yin.
The place they went to was the Qingshan Team 1, Dingjiatun, Tieshi City, Heilongjiang Province, where Fifth Brother lived.
My eldest sister mysteriously disappeared on her second day in the countryside.
Fourth Brother had a heart condition. A week after he went to the countryside, he encountered a harvest rush and collapsed in the field, never to rise again.
Despite her constant vigilance, Su Ruyi was ultimately tricked by Fifth Sister-in-law, who drugged her and sold her to a terrifying village deep in the mountains.
Zhang Biao, an old bachelor, was her nightmare that had haunted her for nineteen years.
The first punch broke three of her ribs.
She never gave up on escaping.
She paid a price that most people could not imagine in order to send out the distress message.
After several failed attempts to escape, Zhang Biao resorted to chaining her to an abandoned stone pig trough with a large iron chain.
until……
It wasn't until Su Yin remembered her kidney that she was "rescued".
Su Ruyi's teeth were clenched so tightly they made a grinding sound.
Her heart was filled with mixed feelings, anger mixed with relief—thankfully she was reborn on this day, and she still had a chance to change everything.
This day was also her 15th birthday.
However, most of the Su family members don't remember, and those who do dare not mention it.
Because she was the "jinx" her mother called her.
Back then, her mother, Guan Yumei, lay on the kang (a heated brick bed) and howled for three days and three nights, but she still couldn't give birth to her. In the end, she had to be taken to the hospital overnight for a cesarean section.
Guan Yumei, who already had an eldest daughter and four sons, suffered a major setback when it came to having a child, and it was a girl.
Because of this, Guan Yumei hated her to the core and nicknamed her "Su Ducao" (meaning "Poisonous Su").
It was only because the person in charge of registering her household registration couldn't stand it anymore that they checked her older sister's name, which was Su Zhenzhu, and changed it to Su Ruyi.
From the time Su Ruyi could remember, Guan Yumei would pinch her hard whenever she saw her: "Ruyi your mother's daughter! Other girls are a waste of money, but you're a jinx! A jinx!"
Guan Yumei would pinch people wherever she could find them, leaving large bruises that would take a month or two to fade.
Therefore, Su Ruyi avoided her biological mother from a young age, trying her best not to linger in front of her.
Her own mother was too cruel. While she was still in the hospital, she wanted to sell her newborn daughter to the mother-in-law of the woman in the next bed to be raised as a child bride.
Fortunately, the doctor who heard the noise rushed over and immediately called the police.
After being severely reprimanded by the police, Guan Yumei reluctantly took her home.
That difficult childbirth reportedly cost the family most of their savings.
They already had little to begin with, and this whole mess left them practically destitute.
Guan Yumei is unemployed. Including her newborn daughter Su Ruyi, the family of nine relies entirely on her father Su Dazhi's salary of 101 yuan as an eighth-grade worker.
In Sujiazhuang, a remote suburb of Haicheng, there is an elderly couple who have to take 15 yuan out of the 101 yuan each month for their retirement.
How did Su Ruyi grow up?
Guan Yumei never breastfed her; she simply handed her over to her older sister, Su Zhenzhu.
Su Zhenzhu was only 11 years old that year, but as the eldest of four younger brothers, she had already learned the saying, "If a person doesn't look out for themselves, they will be punished by heaven and earth."
Su Dazhi tossed her a bag of aged millet that a coworker had given him, and asked her to cook rice porridge to feed Su Ruyi.
While complaining about Su Ruyi's large appetite, Su Zhenzhu also severely reduced Su Ruyi's millet porridge.
She cooked most of the millet into rice and ate it herself. As for the rest, she cooked it into rice porridge, drank the rice oil from the first batch, added water again, and then cooked it again before feeding it to Su Ruyi.
If I can feed her one meal every two or three days, I'm considered to have done a great favor.
Su Ruyi survived entirely because her fourth brother, Su Tong, and fifth brother, Su Tie, saved their own food rations and pocket money to buy expensive millet, which they secretly cooked next door, scraped off the rice oil, and fed to her spoonful by spoonful.
The family at the alley entrance raises a dairy goat, but its production is low.
Her fourth and fifth brothers would buy her goat milk every few days to supplement her nutrition.
She was born when her fifth brother was only five years old.
Fourth Brother is only seven years old.
The two older brothers started dealing with scrap yards early on in order to make money.
To support her, he even resorted to theft and sleight of hand.
As Su Ruyi was lost in her memories, the door to the storage room was suddenly kicked open, and Guan Yumei walked in.
Looking at the young and slender Guan Yumei, Su Ruyi felt a little dazed.
In his previous life, after Su Yin became successful, his entire family benefited greatly.
Guan Yumei moved into the big house that Su Yin bought, and had already gained a lot of weight.
It wasn't that Su Yin was particularly filial. In her previous life, Su Ruyi had personally heard him say to others, "Although my mother isn't exactly respectable, she's still my own flesh and blood. I'll keep her. Some people value filial piety, and it's definitely a plus when negotiating business."
Su Ruyi was shocked by Su Yin's remarks, but Su Yin simply explained that he was just regretful and sad because he had a very hard childhood.
But in reality, Su Yin was one of Guan Yumei's two most favored children.
Lost in her memories, Su Ruyi suddenly screamed.
Because Guan Yumei had already reached out and pinched her hand hard.
The long-lost pain instantly pierced my heart and lungs.
Guan Yumei pinched and cursed at the same time:
"You jinx! I knew you were faking it! You think you're so tough? I only lightly hit you a few times, and you can pretend to be unconscious? You're a wicked scoundrel to the core!"
Su Ruyi pursed her lips and quietly watched Guan Yumei's face contorted by her curses.
She tapped the back of her head with a rolling pin, saying, "Gently tap a few times."
