Jiang's mother didn't believe her daughter and complained, "Xiaoyu, don't be so stubborn. Everything is expensive now. How can you afford to go to college? Listen to me and don't go against your father. It doesn't matter if you don't go to college. So many women didn't go to college and are still living well. Why do you have to go?"

Jiang Xiaoyu was helpless. She was furious but couldn't vent it on her mother.

Her biological father died when she was five years old. Half a year later, her mother took her to marry her current man, Jiang Ming. In fact, her original name was Zhou Xiaoyu, but her mother insisted on changing her name to Jiang Xiaoyu, and also said that if you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, you follow the dog.

Jiang Ming originally had a son, Jiang Xiaohua, who was spoiled since childhood and indulged in all kinds of eating, drinking, whoring and gambling. He was seven years older than her, did not work, and spent every day outside, often not coming home.

The family depends on Jiang Ming's work at the construction site to support them. Their life is very tight and there is no meat for three meals a day. Only when Jiang Xiaohua comes home can they see some meat on the table. Jiang Xiaoyu is not qualified to eat it either, as it all belongs to Jiang Ming and his son.

She remembered that when she was a child, she couldn't help but pick up a piece of meat. Jiang Ming didn't say anything, but her mother slapped her and scolded her for being ignorant.

"What kind of meat are you eating, girl? It makes you greedy!"

Jiang Xiaoyu will remember the scolding her mother said for the rest of her life, as well as the humble smile her mother gave to Jiang Ming and his son. These were like sharp thorns that pierced her heart.

From then on, she never ate meat at the table at home, and even rarely ate vegetables, and often only ate a bowl of white rice.

But she still couldn't bear to blame her mother.

My mother also has a hard life. She hasn't bought any new clothes in all these years. She is less than 40 years old, but looks like she is 50. She does all the housework and has to endure the bad tempers of Jiang Ming and his son.

Jiang Xiaoyu’s biggest hope is to make a lot of money and take her mother away from home and Jiang Ming and his son.

But her mother didn't trust her. Even if Jiang Ming farted, her mother thought it smelled good. When she said her throat was dry, her mother didn't believe her. She thought she was daydreaming and scolded her for being immature.

"Mom, why do you always listen to Uncle Jiang? I'm your biological daughter, why don't you believe me?"

Jiang Xiaoyu felt very sad. She had wanted to ask this question for a long time.

She and her mother were the closest relatives who depended on each other for survival, but why didn't her mother believe her? "What nonsense are you talking about? He is your father, you have no conscience. If it weren't for your father, would you have grown up like this? I think you have read too many books and think you are strong enough. No matter how capable a woman is, how capable can she be? In the end, you still have to rely on men. Your father is right. You shouldn't go to college. You are already wild before you even go to college!"

Mother Jiang kept scolding and it was obvious that she was really angry. She was mad at her daughter for being disobedient and unfilial, and for being disrespectful to the elders.

Jiang Xiaoyu gritted her teeth, her mouth was full of the taste of blood, her fists were clenched tightly, her fingernails dug into the flesh, but she didn't feel any pain at all.

No matter how much it hurts, it won't hurt as much as my heart.

"Just listen to him, but no matter what you say, I'm going to college, and no one can stop me. I won't take any money from my family, not even a penny!"

Jiang Xiaoyu's voice was not loud, but the veins on her neck were bulging, showing how angry her frail body was at the moment.

Mother Jiang was startled and frightened by her daughter's unprecedented appearance.

The daughter has always been very sensible. She doesn't ask for food or clothes and has never caused her any worries. But she is very stubborn when it comes to studying. She insists on studying and now wants to go to college, which makes her husband unhappy.

The family is under such a heavy burden now, and my daughter is too ignorant.

Jiang Xiaoyu rushed into the room, which was actually a narrow attic. The Jiang family had only one room, which was divided into two. The outer room was where Jiang Ming and his wife lived, and the inner half was where Jiang Xiaohua lived. There was a small attic built on the windowsill, where one could not even straighten his back, so he could only kneel. This was where Jiang Xiaoyu slept.

There was no place for her to study at home, so she would attend evening self-study classes at school every day, and would go home only after finishing her homework. She would go to the library on weekends.

The next afternoon, Jiang Xiaoyu arrived on time and found the address easily according to the address given by Jiang Hanyan.

Jiang Hanyan had already gotten up and brought Jiang Xiaoyu a bottle of iced Coke.

"Thank you, I'll just drink some water."

Jiang Xiaoyu didn't dare to take it. This Coke was very expensive and she had never drunk it before.

"Drink it, you're welcome here."

Jiang Hanyan unscrewed the bottle cap and forced it into her hand, "If you don't drink it now, there will be no more gas."

Jiang Xiaoyu had no choice but to drink it. The first sip was a little hard to get used to and it choked her throat, but as she drank it, the taste got better, it was icy and refreshing. No wonder so many students in the school loved to drink it.

"Don't worry, drink slowly. I'll tell you how to maintain hygiene. Just wipe the table, mop the floor, wash the curtains once a month, don't wash them for now, and focus on the balcony and kitchen."

Jiang Hanyan took her around the house. The house was actually quite clean and not tiring to clean.

"I will clean it up. Thank you Sister Jiang for giving me the job opportunity."

Jiang Xiaoyu was very grateful. It was so easy to clean such a clean house. Fifty yuan a day was like picking up money.

Next, Jiang Hanyan sat on the sofa and watched TV while Jiang Xiaoyu cleaned the house seriously. The two of them also chatted, usually with Jiang Hanyan asking questions and Jiang Xiaoyu answering.

Jiang Hanyan only asked about trivial matters in life, but in fact she was able to find out a lot of information.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

For example, Jiang Xiaoyu's biological father died, her stepfather was not kind to her, she had a second-rate stepbrother, and her biological mother was weak-willed. This girl had a very hard life.

"Your mother doesn't want you to go to college? Why would she have such an idea?"

Jiang Hanyan couldn't understand. Today's college students are of very high quality. Being admitted to a university is like a carp leaping over the dragon gate. Normal parents would happily send their children to university, and some parents would even hold graduation banquets for their children.

Did Jiang Xiaoyu's biological mother get kicked in the head by a donkey?

"She said that going to college was useless, that a woman's ultimate destiny was to get married, and that my family had no money and couldn't afford to send me to college."

Jiang Xiaoyu looked gloomy, but her eyes were determined. She had to go to college anyway. Only going to college could change her current predicament.

She doesn't want to be like her mother, relying on men all her life.

"Don't listen to your mom. Going to college is your only way out. You can apply for a student loan from the school. The school will also arrange a work-study program. As long as you want to go to school, the government will definitely help you."

Jiang Hanyan was really going to be pissed off to death by this weirdo Jiang Mu. Which ancient tomb did she crawl out of?

It's been almost two thousand years, and there are still such decadent ideas. Why must women marry men?

Can't women be beautiful alone?

Other mothers try their best to support their daughters in becoming stronger and more successful, but Jiang's mother tries every possible means to prevent her daughter from becoming stronger and more successful. Such a woman is not worthy of being a mother.

"I know, I won't give up!"

Jiang Xiaoyu nodded vigorously, her expression becoming even more resolute.

She would never give up going to college.
