Chapter 6: The Warmth of the Young Educated Youth



The little girl was also worried about her father's health, so she disagreed.

However, the dire situation made Father Wen resolutely sever ties with the girl. He entrusted Grandpa Wen's students to change the girl's age by 3 years and sent her on a train to the countryside. At the same time, he published a statement of severing ties in the newspaper.

In this way, the little girl grew up overnight in the midst of great changes and began a difficult life of survival alone.

Fortunately, the old man's student was quite capable and arranged for the girl to work in the countryside in Northeast China. Although the winter here is very cold, the weather is long, so there is no need to work in the fields for four months a year. The girl was also very hardworking. She usually went up the mountain to dig wild vegetables and stock up on mountain products. In this way, she spent four years in a half-hungry state.

As for her grandparents and her parents, there has been no news from them in four years. The little girl has no idea whether they are alive or dead. The person who helped the little girl to go to the countryside has also not been heard from since he sent the last letter two years ago.

The little girl vaguely guessed that the kind-hearted man might have been in trouble. In his last letter, he hinted to the little girl not to mention anything about her parents and him, and to just think of herself as an orphan without a father or a mother, and to insist on living no matter what.

The little girl also knew that her grandparents and her parents must be in a bad situation. There were also people living in the cowshed in her village. They were tried and educated every month. They had to do the hardest and most tiring work and could only get half the work points. The tiredness was not a big deal. The mental insult was unbearable. Several people had died in the past four years. So the little girl was always prepared for the worst. Her grandparents and her parents might have...

In the next two years, the little girl became more and more silent. She didn't know what to do. She didn't know if her parents, grandparents were still alive. She didn't know when this painful life would end. She wanted to persist in living, but she didn't know how to persist...

Today was a rare day off. The little girl wanted to go up the mountain to dig some wild vegetables as usual. Because she was always thinking about her parents, she unknowingly left the team and went deep into the mountains. While trying to find the way, she accidentally fell down the short slope. This fall knocked away the last bit of energy and spirit of the little girl. She gave up on this world...

"Woo woo, Master, she is so pitiful..."

"Yes, she is so pitiful..."

Wen Nuan sighed. As a Chinese, she had some knowledge of the history of this period. She knew that these were the darkest years. Countless scholars and heroes and countless families were persecuted. The little girl was very pitiful, and there were many families as broken as the little girl's. This was caused by the times, and no one could change it on their own.

For a moment, silence flowed between Wen Nuan and Fei Fei, and neither of them spoke again.

After walking for a while, Feifei said, "Master, we are at the periphery!"

Wen Nuan looked up at the path not far away and a sense of familiarity came over her. Then, Wen Nuan did not let Fei Fei lead the way again, but walked according to the route she remembered.

After walking for another ten minutes, they finally got down the mountain. As soon as they got down the mountain, Wen Nuan saw several bright lights shining towards them. "Is that Wen Nuan?"

A hoarse voice sounded.

"It's me!"

As Wen Nuan spoke, several figures came up to her, "Where have you been, little girl? You didn't even come back after dark!"
