"You little bitch! Why haven't you brought out the soup and food yet?! Don't you know we'll starve to death if the food isn't ready?! You've been slacking off all day long. If you cook something unpalatable again today, I'll break your legs!"
Suddenly, an impatient and harsh scolding came from outside the kitchen. Su Lan was so scared that her hand shook and she spilled half a bag of salt, a lethal dose.
Su Lan was still struggling with how much salt to pour from the bag in her hand, but now she didn't have to worry about it anymore, as a beating tonight was inevitable.
When Su Lan was only six or seven years old, she had to stand on a stool to cook at the stove and work for the whole family.
She often wore ill-fitting clothes, her long hair was messy and yellowed from malnutrition, her eyes were large and golden, like stars crushed in them, her eyes were watery and full of confusion and fear.
She is a lovely, poor little girl.
The right amount of salt is a very difficult problem for Su Lan.
What is the appropriate amount?
Last time, Su Lan put too much salt in the food and her ears were almost twisted off. They still hurt a little now.
Just as Su Lan was about to serve the boiling hot soup, a figure in a princess dress quietly approached her back and kicked her shivering calf hard.
"Since you're so slow, Mom asked me to come and see if you were lazy. You are indeed lazy, I want to complain to Mom!"
Su Lan, who had been hungry for a day, was kicked on the calf and fell down, spilling the soup pot all over the floor.
Fortunately, the water didn't splash on Su Lan, but instead splashed on a girl whose nickname was Xiaobao. Xiaobao, who was originally very proud, burst into tears and rolled on the ground crying loudly!
"Ah! Dad! Mom! Su Lan splashed me with scalding water! I'm going to die! Mom! Come and save me!"
It hurts so much!
If Su Lan hadn't shaken her hands and didn't hold it firmly, she wouldn't have been burned. That was so bad.
The adoptive mother, who was lying on the sofa watching TV, heard the noise and quickly walked to the kitchen. The fat on her face made her expression even more ferocious.
"Su Lan!!! Are you going to ruin this family before you're satisfied?! You act like a spoiled little girl and can't even do your chores!" Seeing the burn on Xiao Bao's leg, the adoptive mother was so distressed that she picked up the nearby carrying pole and beat Su Lan. "You poured such scalding soup on her, are you trying to kill her? You ungrateful bastard! I should have let you rot in the orphanage instead of bringing you back!"
The more she looked at Lidya Su, the more hateful she felt!
How could there be such an annoying child in the world!
He spent half a day to prepare the New Year's Eve dinner and it was not even good enough. He is so young but has such a vicious heart and wants to harm others!
What a troublemaker!
It’s better to just beat him to death!
Lidya Su ran around the kitchen with her head in her hands, trying to avoid the carrying pole that hit her, but she was still hit: "Mom, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to, don't hit me, it hurts!"
She did nothing wrong, why is everyone blaming her?
It hurts so much, I feel like I'm being beaten to death.
Who come save her!
Adoptive mother: "Who is your mother?! Don't call me mom! Your parents have long been dead in some corner! Maybe they didn't want you, a monster, because you looked disgusting!"
There is a scale-like black spot on Su Lan's cheek, emitting a faint golden light, which makes her look a bit inhuman. Many people always call her a little monster.
Every time the adoptive mother saw her, she felt like she had raised a lizard spirit. She was terrified and kept thinking that one day she would turn into a monster. She got goose bumps all over her body and disliked Su Lan more and more.
After a farce, the adoptive father came back from playing cards outside. After learning about what happened, he was ready to kick her out without a second thought.
"This family doesn't need you anymore. Pack up your things and go back to the orphanage. I've already contacted the director to come pick you up. We can't afford to raise too many children, and we have our own difficulties. You're a good kid, so don't cause us any trouble and just go back."
The adoptive parents first adopted Lan because they had been married for several years but had no children. Amidst the gossip of others, they were forced to compromise and adopt a child from an orphanage, Su Lan.
Another superstition is that adopting a child is said to bring a new child into their family.
That is indeed the case.
When Su Lan was first brought back, she also had an experience of being loved, which made her feel like she was at home and made her extremely greedy for this rare moment of happiness.
Only one year after they brought her home, their biological child was born. Life became very tight, and they began to feel that Su Lan was a hindrance.
Raising one more child means more money. After all, they are not biological children. All the extra affection is poured into his own children, and he no longer has the energy and extra money to continue raising Su Lan.
Every penny spent on Su Lan means their children spend one penny more, which is more uncomfortable than cutting their flesh.
They tapped the calculator over and over again. Su Lan was about to go to school, and they had to squeeze out some money to support her. It would be better to send her back to the orphanage and save a lot of money.
After wandering around and finally finding a home, Su Lan's eyes were filled with tears, and she spoke with a sobbing tone: "Mom and Dad, I don't eat much. You can hit me, but please don't drive me away, okay?"
She has tried so hard to be a good child, why doesn't any family like her?
Is it because she has a dark spot on her face?
Su Lan was born an orphan. When she was found, she was hidden in a cardboard box at the door of an orphanage. She had a scaly birthmark on her face that glowed golden. It is speculated that she was abandoned because of the black spots on her face. This situation is not uncommon.
Su Lan stayed in the orphanage for a while.
It wasn't that no one had adopted her before, but soon they all disliked the dark spots on Su Xiaoxiao's face, the unhealthy look, and the fact that she was a girl, so they abandoned her again and again.
