In Hunan, Yingzi's adoptive mother, Liu Xiangyun, angrily asked Zhou Xiaohua: "You desperately want to tell her about her origins, have you considered her feelings?" ”
Elder Zhou Xiaohua said dismissively: "I don't consider her feelings, she has the right to know about her life." She wants to know this reality, I have to tell her the truth, can't lie to her! ”
In the face of the sudden arrival of the Zhou family, the adoptive mother said angrily: "I have no way, you take your daughter back, then you take 1 million first." ”
An old man with sunken cheeks and a withered shape was named Zhou Xiaohua. At the age of 63, he was recently diagnosed with advanced esophageal cancer by the hospital. His life had passed, and he had found a mediator for help, and he had to complete a major event that had been on hold for years.
This matter of more than 30 years of care must be completed with the help of a mediator. Zhou Xiaohua said: "I have cancer, I have guilt for her. I wanted to see her. ”
35 years ago, due to the difficult conditions at home, Zhou Xiaohua gave his daughter Yingzi, who had just turned one year old, to his distant relative Liu Xiangyun. Now that his life has entered the countdown, he is eager to recognize this long-lost daughter.
At first, the Zhou family was able to see their daughter Yingzi during the New Year's Festival. But they never expected that after Ying Zi was 10 years old, the Liu family moved. Even the two families' common relatives did not talk about the whereabouts of their children, and it was only recently that the Zhou family heard some information about the Liu family.
However, the Liu family was reluctant to reveal anything about Yingzi's whereabouts, and seemed to have great vigilance and hostility towards the Zhou family, which made Zhou Xiaohua completely embarrassed.
What really happened to the Zhou and Liu families that year? And why did the Liu family suddenly move away with their adopted daughters? Zhou Xiaohua took the mediator to Liu's house to ask for an explanation.
The Liu family has developed over the years and built its own luxurious villas. The moment he saw Zhou Xiaohua, Liu Xiangyun was very disgusted. The two families were originally related, and they had not seen each other for many years, but they were like enemies.
Liu Xiangyun had a big temper, and she angrily said: "If you want to see Ying Zi, you must first take out 1 million." If you want to bring your daughter back, you have to give me 1 million. ”
When the mediator asked about Yingzi's specific address, Liu Xiangyun's answer was ambiguous, one would say that it was in Guangxi, and the other would change his mouth to say that it was in Shenzhen. In fact, clear-eyed people can see the perfunctory in her mouth.
Liu Xiangyun learned that Zhou Xiaohua was suffering from terminal cancer and was eager to see her daughter for the last time. She did not show any sympathy, but instead looked like she was schadenfreude.
Liu Xiangyunpi smiled and said, "If he really values his daughter so much, why would he get to the point where others look down on him?" How could his eldest daughter have become insane and uncultured? Then how could she marry someone twice, and other men wouldn't want her? She had been divorced twice, and it was the sins of his father. ”
Liu Xiangyun mentioned that Zhou Xiaohua was all angry, she said: "The Zhou family has a total of 4 children, and it is 2 daughters who have been given to me. The third daughter died at a very young age, and the eldest daughter also married early. The eldest daughter is not happy, forced to divorce twice, and has become crazy now. This is all the education problem of the Zhou family, which has cultivated such a daughter. He now saw that he had cultivated Hideko so well, and suddenly regretted that he wanted to recognize it. If there is such a cheap thing, I am angry. ”
Seeing that the mediator somewhat questioned her words, Liu Xiangyun went on to reveal a secret.
At the beginning, the Zhou family did not give her the second daughter because of the family's poverty, but because their family was heavily patriarchal. The three daughters did not have any good treatment, and in order to posthumously give birth to a son, they directly gave away their own sons.
As relatives, the Zhou family could easily visit Ying Zi, but they ignored the child for more than 30 years. Liu Xiangyun said that the first time she saw Ying Zi, she still remembered it vividly, and she didn't get angry.
She said: "The first time I met Hideko, she was only 1 year old. Eiko couldn't walk, and I took her in my arms and fluttered lightly. At first glance, this child is obviously malnourished. The Zhou family has never taken this daughter seriously at all, so they are completely unqualified to return to their daughter now. ”
Zhou Xiaohua and his wife never said a word in the face of Liu Xiangyun's repeated falls. After returning home, Zhou Xiaohua became more passive and silent, refusing to infuse and not even eating.
He said tearfully: "I initially threatened my wife on the grounds of not giving her living expenses, despite my wife's objections. I forcibly sent my daughter away because we have a custom on our side. A boy must be born in a family to be considered a family. My brothers are all boys, and I am unwilling to have a son anyway. In order to have a son, my mother gave Ying Zi to Liu Xiangyun. ”
The mediator listened to the old man's words and felt incredible. Because his brother had all his sons, and he gave birth to all his daughters, he felt that he had no face. Feeling pressured, coupled with his family's poverty, he eventually bowed his head to life.
After giving his daughter to Liu Xiangyun, he planned to have a son. He had no mind or motivation to see if his daughter was doing well in someone else's house.
Liu Xiangyun's eldest son, Liu Yong, said: "The Zhou family suddenly wanted to recognize their sister at this time, in fact, they saw that my family had built a new house. Several of our brothers became bosses, and the family conditions were getting better and better. They can't wait to come to the door to recognize the daughter, and the purpose behind it is to want Hideko to bear the cost of her medical expenses. I didn't want my sister's life to be disturbed. ”
However, the Zhou family was not willing to give up, and their attitude was resolute. In the face of the Liu family's repeated sarcasm, the Zhou family patted their chests to ensure that this was not the case, they were not so dirty.
The insistence of the Zhou family angered the Liu brothers, who feared that Ying Zi would be hurt.
It turned out that the Liu family had knocked on the side and mentioned her origins, saying that she was adopted. Unexpectedly, the introverted and suspicious Hideko had a persistent headache. The Liu family, who was distressed about Yingzi, never dared to reveal the mystery and interrogation of her life.
Hearing this, the Zhou family was unmoved. They believe that these are all excuses for the Liu family not to let their daughter return to the Zhou family, which is not enough to believe. Their goal is clear, and they must recognize their daughter.
Liu Xiangyun said helplessly: "When I raise my daughter, I am also under tremendous pressure. Relatives and neighbors persuaded me to give up and not to adopt this severely malnourished child. They were worried that I would not be able to raise my children as adults, plus the Zhou family was not a fuel-saving lamp, and they were afraid that I would end up being blamed and pestered by their family. I was actually hesitant until something happened that made me completely determined to adopt this girl. ”
The incident that Liu Xiangyun mentioned was that she saw that the Zhou family did not treat this girl as a daughter. The 10-year-old girl is so thin that she has to chop pig grass and feed pigs every day. Once, she saw Hideko bringing a pot of pig food to feed the pigs.
The skinny Young Son lacked strength and fell down fiercely along with the pig food. Hideko's mother pulled her up viciously and whipped the child with all her strength. Liu Xiangyun thought that the child would continue like this, and he would not be alive for a long time.
Sure enough, after Ying Zi was adopted, the Zhou family gave birth to another child. Unfortunately, the sky did not go according to people's wishes, and this time it was the daughter again. Not long after, the third daughter died inexplicably. The Zhou family did not care about their sadness and began to give birth to the next one.
Coupled with Liu Xiangyun's knowledge of the zhou family's eldest daughter's recent life, he had to do various farm work at a young age. She was also beaten up frequently, and her days were too hard.
Liu Xiangyun's heart softened, and he was determined to treat Ying Zi well and help one to one. Liu Xiangyun, who already had three sons, invested money and energy on Ying Zi and slowly fattened this skinny little girl.
When Ying Zi went to interest classes and ate a full meal and was pampered, the eldest daughter of the Zhou family was still suffering from cold and hunger. When Ying Zi was admitted to college to start a new life, the eldest daughter of the Zhou family had already experienced two marriages, and she had not enjoyed being respected and loved, and she became crazy.
This is the obvious difference between the Zhou and Liu families. It also created two sisters of the same bloodline, completely different fates in life. Today, Zhou Xiaohua is suffering from cancer, and time is running out. He hopes to be able to redeem his long-lost family ties, while Liu's family, who know him, accuses him of selfishness and viciousness.
They had three daughters, but they didn't treat them well, and they didn't think about Hideko's feelings now. Liu Xiangyun did not want the selfish Zhou family to jump out and destroy Yingzi's peaceful life.
The undead Zhou Xiaohua went to the Liu family many times, hoping to give an explanation.
Liu Xiangyun took out a recent photo of Ying Zi and handed it to Zhou Xiaohua. And Zhou Xiaohua only glanced at it faintly, and returned the photo to Liu Xiangyun, he didn't want this.
Liu Xiangyun said, "You see, this is Ying Zi." If she is in your house, can you cultivate such a good woman? What kind of girl have you raised? She's not married yet, and suddenly telling her this, I'm afraid it's going to have a bad effect on her psyche. ”
Zhou Xiaohua looked impatient: "You don't tell me so much, I want to meet people." The photos are all fake, and I want to tell her the whole truth and tell me my helplessness. You don't stop me. ”
The Liu family considered that telling Ying Zi the truth now would have a very big impact on her psychology. And Zhou Xiaohua did not agree with this, believing that it was all their excuse.
He said: "I don't consider her feelings, it doesn't matter. She has the right to know, she wants to know this reality. ”
Zhou Xiaohua's wife confronted her stubborn husband and tried to persuade him to dispel the idea of recognizing her daughter. She hoped that her husband would not add to his mistakes and do more things that hurt her daughter.
However, no matter how kindly his wife and the people of the Liu family persuaded each other, Zhou Xiaohua would not let up. He said that he was not willing to let his daughter-in-law confess his ancestors and return to the ancestors.
The sensible Liu family saw that the other party did not follow and did not spare, so they had to make concessions. They promised that when Ying Zi returned home for the Chinese New Year, they would take her to see Zhou Xiaohua in the way of recognizing relatives. Observe Hideko's state, and then slowly tell her the truth of the matter as appropriate.
Zhou Xiaohua, who returned home, wrote a letter to his daughter, which read: "If you can't tell you your origins in your lifetime, then use this letter to get your daughter's forgiveness." ”
Qiu Qiu would like to say: The "Three Character Sutra" that three-year-old children will recite is said that the son is not the fault of the godfather! As a father, you should treat your children equally and should not favor sons over daughters.
A 10-year-old girl is exactly the age when she needs the care and education of her parents and elders. As Hideko's father, he scolded him and did not give him food. The little child was devastated physically and mentally, but fortunately she met her kind adoptive mother Liu Xiangyun and her three brothers who loved her.
Otherwise, her life would be similar to that of the eldest sister and third sister of the Zhou family. Either they were casually married by their parents and went crazy, or they left the world early.
In the eyes of the Zhou family, no matter how many daughters are born, it is also a burden, and a home without sons is incomplete. Therefore, the three daughters of the Zhou family did not have a satisfactory life.
Since he chose to abandon his child, Zhou Xiaohua should let go, instead of returning to find his long-lost daughter when he was old and sick. His purpose can be described as Sima Zhao's heart, and passers-by know it: the Liu family has good conditions, and if they recognize their daughter back, someone will share the medical expenses.
In doing so, it is nothing more than to reduce the pressure on their young son. In the final analysis, the Zhou family is still the same old concept for decades: the son is preferred to the daughter, the son has to be well distressed, and the daughter is the cow and horse for the family.
Qiu Qiu very much disagrees with this decadent view, which is about to 2022, and the thinking must also keep pace with the times. Giving birth to boys and girls are the same, parents must be a bowl of water flat, raise their children well, straighten their waists and be people.
Mediators must not be able to make a distinction between right and wrong with the mud! If the Zhou family had half divided into Ying Zi to consider, it would be able to not disturb, rather than be so purposeful. It is clear that he is watching the Liu family raise up the child, and he wants to enjoy it.
The adoptive mother and three older brothers are very good and sincere to Hideko.
The adoptive mother should not give in, for the sake of Hideko. After all, this biological father is so selfish that he does not deserve to recognize his daughter. Of course, if Ying Zi knows her own lineage in the future, it is okay to help the poor eldest sister within her ability, after all, the eldest sister is not wrong, and she is a victim of the Zhou family's preference for sons and daughters.
