Lin Xuanjiao searched her mind, trying to find any impression of this family, but she had no memory of them at all.
Lin Xuanjiao felt that she should be more direct. Being too euphemistic wouldn't be good either, so she asked directly, "What are your parents' names?"
This time, Gu Chunni was silent for a moment, and then she slowly said, "I don't know."
Lin Xuanjiao was stunned for a few seconds by this answer. How could someone not know their parents' names? Judging from the little girl's condition, her parents must have never told her her name, which was enough to show how completely neglected this little girl was by her parents.
Lin Xuanjiao didn't speak again during the rest of the journey. Without Lin Xuanjiao's questions, the little girl naturally wouldn't speak again. The two of them walked in silence until they reached Gu Chunni's doorstep.
Lin Xuanjiao wanted to send the bucket to Gu Chunni's house, but seeing Gu Chunni's almost pleading expression, Lin Xuanjiao finally did not send it to her.
Putting the bucket on the ground, Lin Xuanjiao took out a few candies from her small bag and stuffed them into Gu Chunni's baggy belt without even looking at them.
"Sister is treating you to candy, you must accept it!"
After saying this, Lin Xuanjiao ran away quickly, for fear that the little girl would stuff the candy back.
Gu Chunni really wanted to give the candy back to Lin Xuanjiao. She felt it was not nice to take someone else's things when they just met. However, Lin Xuanjiao ran too fast and Gu Chunni could only see her back.
Gu Chunni touched the candy in her pocket and a smile appeared on her skinny face. It seemed like the first time someone gave her candy. Gu Chunni didn't know what candy tasted like. She had never tasted it since she could remember.
Looking at the direction where Lin Xuanjiao went, Gu Chunni clutched the candy in her palm tightly. These candies must have cost a lot of money! How could a money-loser like her even have such precious candies?
There was no time to think about it anymore. Gu Chunni once again struggled to lift the bucket and walked into the house unsteadily.
As soon as I entered the house, I was greeted by a familiar voice of abuse: "You money-loser! I asked you to fetch some water, and you took so long to come back. What can I expect you to do? You just eat for free and do nothing. Why would I have given birth to such a bastard like you?"
Tian Cuihua walked up to Gu Chunni and pinched her face hard with her hands.
Gu Chunni's face wrinkled in pain, but she didn't dare to hide. If she dared to hide, she would be beaten even worse.
Tian Cuihua looked at the silent Gu Chunni and became even angrier. This little bastard couldn't even fart for a long time. It was because of this little bastard that she had been tortured for so many years.
When Tian Cuihua was pregnant with Gu Chunni, people saw her pointed belly and said it was a son. Tian Cuihua had a good time during that period. However, when the baby was born, it turned out to be a daughter. The disappointed Gu family vented their anger on Tian Cuihua.
During that time, Tian Cuihua didn't dare to think about how she got through those days. When she gave birth to Gu Chunni, she didn't even have a confinement period. She was forced to work the next day. Tian Cuihua didn't dare to complain about all this. She was brainwashed by her living environment since childhood, which led Tian Cuihua to always feel that she was useless and could not give birth to a son for her man, making him a laughing stock.
However, Tian Cuihua blamed all the mistakes on Gu Chunni. If she hadn't been a girl, how could she have suffered so much.
Because she hated her daughter, Tian Cuihua was unwilling to give Gu Chunni more of her own milk. When Gu Chunni was a baby, she mostly ate rice soup.
Tian Cuihua originally thought that if she stopped feeding her, the girl would die, but she didn't expect that this little bitch was so tough that she could grow up just by drinking rice soup.
This caused Tian Cuihua to dislike Gu Chunni even more, and daily beatings and scolding became commonplace.
Gu Chunni was already familiar with all of this, and she stood there numbly, allowing the person who was nominally her mother to hurt her.
Gu Chunni didn't know why her mother treated her like this. She had seen how other mothers treated their daughters, and she envied that atmosphere. Why couldn't her mother treat her like other mothers!
She didn't want too much, just a hug from her mother every day would be enough. Gu Chunni thought that if her mother was willing to hug her, then the pain in her body would probably disappear!
Seeing that Gu Chunni was still distracted, Tian Cuihua slapped her in the face. "I'm talking to you! How dare you be distracted? Do you even take me, your mother, seriously?"
The slap directly knocked Gu Chunni's thin body to the ground, and she fell to the ground in an instant. The bucket in her hand also spilled all over the ground with a splash.
But this tragic scene did not arouse Tian Cuihua's sympathy. She kicked Gu Chunni directly and said, "Little bastard, what's the point of me giving birth to you? You can't even lift a bucket of water properly, and you spilled water all over me. Why don't you get up and fetch another bucket of water?"
Lin Xuanjiao had no idea that she could spill the water she had brought back for the little girl. At this moment, she was walking towards the Youth League compound where she lived.
Still thinking about the little girl, Lin Xuanjiao felt more and more suffocated. How could someone have the heart to abuse such a young child? She was simply a piece of shit.
But this was someone else's family affair after all, and she was just an outsider, so how could she interfere? What if she taught the little girl's parents a lesson and then turned around and took her anger out on the little girl? This would only make the little girl even more sad. After all, the family lived together all day long, and she was not under her nose.
Lin Xuanjiao felt less cheerful as she thought about what she had just seen. Alas! Every family has its own problems.
Back at the Youth League Home, Lin Xuanjiao thought about her meat patties and wild sweet potatoes and hurried forward to check. She took out the oil paper package containing the meat patties and as soon as she opened it, she smelled a sour and stinky smell that went straight to her head and made her close her eyes.
Oh! This damn smell! Lin Xuanjiao expected the meat pie to go bad, but she hadn't expected it to stink so thoroughly. If she smelled the smell for a while longer, she'd probably vomit up her leftover food.
This smell must not stay in her room. If it stays for too long, the room will also smell like this. Thinking of this, Lin Xuanjiao's scalp numbed and she rushed to the toilet with the meat pie in her hand.
This smell should stay with the toilet. Only by throwing it into the toilet can it not be easily discovered.
