When the first rays of dawn fell upon Shangwan Village.
The rooster has crowed three times.
Various birds chirped and twittered, welcoming another morning.
A gentle breeze carries the sweet aroma of corn.
Just as the sunlight stubbornly shone through the gaps in the curtains onto the kang (a heated brick bed).
Xiao Yijing finally opened his eyes.
Tongdan, who had been waiting nearby, saw that his unreliable father had finally woken up.
He hurriedly got off the kang (a heated brick bed) and put on his shoes, but because he was in such a hurry, he put them on backwards.
He called out urgently, "Grandma, Grandma, my dad's awake! My dad's awake!"
When Xiao Yijing woke up, he was completely dazed.
Where is this?
Didn't he just end his own life?
Thinking about the outcome he wanted next, he began to prepare himself emotionally.
For a grown man to live like this, he deserves it!
He doesn't care about the children, nor does he care about his parents; he only revolves around his wife all day long.
I thought my wife cared about me too.
Who would have thought that she had no self-respect at all!
Now that house has been completely emptied out. Apart from a little bit of food to keep them from starving, there's nothing left!
He didn't want his wife to work in the fields either, thinking that she could stay home and do the washing and cleaning, and that her parents could take care of the children. Wasn't that enough?
Even so, he didn't get a hot meal when he got home.
The wife goes back to her parents' home almost every day, bringing gifts and cooking and chores there.
Here, I have to do everything myself!
Thinking about the things I ate every day during these days of family separation, tears welled up in my eyes.
It brushed across her cheek and finally disappeared into her tangled hair.
He deserved it!
Ah, he now knows what it means to be blessed but not know it!
He now understands what it means to reap what you sow!
Feeling increasingly wronged, Xiao Yijing pursed his lips, wrinkled his nose, and shed even more tears!
The golden egg and the silver egg were also watching Xiao Yijing from the side.
Neither of them made a sound.
Just staring at his dad!
Especially Jindan, who is almost ten years old.
It is said that poor children learn to be independent early. This child, who was almost starved to death by his own parents, understood a truth even earlier: his parents did not love him.
If you don't understand it clearly at the beginning.
Get starved by your parents a few times, and then you'll know!
If it weren't for their grandparents, second uncle and aunt, third uncle, and now third aunt, who knows what their lives would be like!
Seeing his father crying, Golden Egg felt a strange sense of satisfaction!
It was as if something had been smoothed out a little!
He absolutely did not pity his own father!
What's so pitiful about a man in his thirties, in the prime of his life? Those three brothers are the ones who are pitiful!
Well, to put it simply, he just felt awesome!
That's right, it felt just like when he plunged headfirst into the river by the village during those hottest days!
That refreshing, cool feeling that springs up from the depths of your heart, without you even having to consciously try to feel it, travels throughout your entire body.
As for whether his own father's life is hard or difficult!
Haha, that's not something he needs to consider.
The silver egg beside him remained silent.
He watched as his brother revealed a slightly eerie smile.
I shuddered instantly.
His brother seems to be one of those traitors and collaborators.
Before he could even savor the moment, Aunt Xiao rushed over in a panic.
"Boss, are you feeling better? How are you?"
Seeing Xiao Yijing silently shedding tears, Aunt Xiao felt heartbroken: "What's wrong? Why are you crying? It's okay, Mom's here, don't be afraid."
As she spoke, she reached out and touched her eldest son's messy hair, as if coaxing a child: "Touch your hair, don't be scared, touch your hair, don't be scared!"
It's unclear whether Xiao Yijing was genuinely frightened or simply craving the warmth of the moment, but he didn't flinch in front of his three sons!
Xiao Yijing's eyes finally focused, fixing on Aunt Xiao's slightly weathered face, and he called out in a wronged tone, "Mom..."
Aunt Xiao was heartbroken by her eldest son's shout. If it weren't for the fact that her three grandsons were nearby and her son was already so big, she would have wanted to hold the child in her arms!
You must have suffered so much injustice!
On the contrary, the three eggs just watched their dad cry!
There was nothing they could do; they had cried like this before, but their father would never listen to them!
Especially Jin Dan, not only did his father ignore his own tears, but he also saw Yin Dan and Tong Dan cry, and their fathers still ignored them!
Oh, even his own mother doesn't care!
Although she didn't hold Xiao Yijing in her arms.
Aunt Xiao also felt sorry for Xiao Yijing and kept stroking his forehead and hair.
She kept repeating, "Sweetie, Mommy's here, Mommy's here, don't be afraid of anything, Mommy's here! Mommy's here!"
It was as if saying this could drive away Xiao Yijing's grievances and sadness.
As she spoke, Aunt Xiao herself began to cry, tears streaming down her face.
It landed in Xiao Yijing's hand, and the heat warmed his heart.
His mom really loves him!
That makes things easier.
A hint of hidden smugness flashed across his eyes, then disappeared.
The copper egg stood by, watching coldly!
His dad just woke up, and he was really excited!
After all, he's his own father; blood ties are there!
But the sight of Aunt Xiao crying while holding her own father made his eyes hurt!
He used to cry when he was really hungry, even more so than this, until his voice became hoarse!
