Seeds of contradiction and conflict
To understand the root of Cao Qian's eventual ruthlessness towards her parents, it is necessary to trace her upbringing. Cao Qian was born in an ordinary rural family in Dalian, and she was the only sprout of her parents in their later years.
For this couple, who have no friendship in the world, their daughter is simply their last hope and pillar.
From childhood to adulthood, Cao's father and Cao's mother used doting education to cultivate Cao Qian into a good girl. They firmly believe that if they do their best to cultivate this only young seedling, they will be able to bloom in the future.
Therefore, even the tiniest housework was not allowed to interfere with Cao Qian, for fear of distracting her study energy.
Cao Qian has been a smart and clever child since she was a child, and her grades are among the best. Every time she won the award, Cao's father's eyes would squint happily, and Cao's mother would secretly rejoice on the side.
Seeing their daughter's grades climbing, they are encouraged and their education policy is becoming more and more stringent.
However, just when her parents were proud, the adolescent Cao Qian began to show her rebellious side. Her personality gradually became eccentric and withdrawn, and she was disgusted by her parents' strict discipline.
Although she is still obedient and obedient on the surface, the resentment in her heart has secretly grown.
The turning point occurred at the critical moment when the college entrance examination was filled in. Cao Qian insisted on going to a prestigious school in another place to further her studies, but Cao's father and mother resolutely opposed it out of concern for their daughter's safety.
As a result, violent conflicts and quarrels broke out between the two sides, and Cao's father even slapped Cao Qian in a fit of anger.
In the face of her husband's violence, Cao's mother could only follow the temptation and do everything possible to mend the relationship between the father and daughter. In the end, despite Cao Qian's reluctance, she was forced to fill in Liaoning Normal University as her third choice.
At that time, the scene was extremely tense, and Cao's father's anger and beating behavior planted the first seeds of hatred in Cao Qian's heart.
Dream come true
After entering the university, Cao Qian's learning attitude began to decline significantly. She is immersed in high-cost campus life, often hanging out with some wealthy classmates, and splurging in high-end restaurants and nightclubs.
In just two years, she has exhausted her family's meagre savings.
Whenever Cao's father sent hard-earned money home, Cao Qian always easily opened the money bag after receiving it, turning a blind eye to her parents' hard work. Seeing this, Cao's father and Cao's mother all felt unprecedented anger and disappointment at their daughter's behavior.
It was at this moment that a serendipitous turn of events occurred. One day, Cao Qian accidentally learned that the school was selecting outstanding students and sponsoring them to study abroad.
A strong desire to study abroad ignited in her heart, and she resolutely signed up for it.
For this precious opportunity, Cao Qian began to study her homework tirelessly. She spent all her spare time in the library until she obtained a Level 2 Certificate in Japanese.
With tenacious perseverance and excellent preparation, Cao Qian finally got her wish and got a spot in her junior year.
In 2000, when Cao Qian was about to graduate, she returned to her hometown and asked Cao's father and mother to study abroad. At first, the parents were shocked when they heard the huge cost of 70,000 yuan, and their faces were sad.
After all, this amount of money is astronomical for a rural family with a monthly income of only a few hundred yuan.
Cao's mother, out of concern about the foreign living environment, persuaded her daughter to stay in the local area to teach. But Cao Qian is not what it used to be, and she categorically stated that she has made up her mind. Looking at his daughter's determination, Cao's father's heart was mixed, and while he was happy, he was secretly troubled by how to pay for her expensive dream.
In the end, under Cao's father's twists and turns, the cost of 70,000 yuan was finally enough. He first took out the family's only 10,000 yuan of savings, and then borrowed a huge amount of 60,000 yuan from relatives with difficulty.
For the sake of his daughter's future, Cao's father tried all his belongings to the end.
On the eve of leaving, Cao Qian said to her parents with great longing: "When I succeed in my studies in Germany, I will definitely repay your nurturing kindness as soon as possible." The family cheered and celebrated her dream of going abroad in the midst of laughter.
However, no one would have imagined that this would be the last warm time for the father and daughter to be happy. As Cao Qian left the country, a period of endless pain and hurt began.
Jaw-dropping
After Cao Qian left the country, she seemed to have completely forgotten her relatives behind her. When she came to Germany, she realized that life in a foreign country was far more difficult than she imagined.
One of the first major challenges was the language barrier. In order to communicate with the local people, Cao Qian had to sign up for a German training course. However, the high tuition fees undoubtedly added a heavy financial burden to her life.
Cao Qian originally planned to work while studying to make ends meet, but soon found out that this was a naïve fantasy. She tried working part-time near campus, but her meager income was not enough to cover the huge cost of living in a foreign country.
In less than half a year, Cao Qian wiped out the only 30,000 yuan in tuition. In order to buy daily necessities, she once again dialed the domestic phone number and asked Cao's father and mother for more expenses.
At that time, the cost of international calls was as high as 8 yuan per minute, which was an astronomical amount for a poor farmer. But Cao's father and wife still agreed without hesitation, and quickly remitted a large amount of living expenses.
Since then, Cao Qian's contact with her family has become a routine matter of asking for money. Whenever the phone rang, Cao's father would worry that it would be his daughter asking for money again.
Sure enough, the communication between the two soon fell into the quagmire of coldness and disputes, and Cao's father became furious again and again, questioning his daughter's lack of responsibility for the family.
Cao Qian simply ignored her father's accusations and continued to beg for money cheekily. Under her unremitting "entanglement", the family has remitted more than 30,000 yuan of living expenses. In this way, in just a few years, a peasant family with a monthly income of only a few hundred yuan was squeezed out of more than 60,000 yuan by Cao Qian, which is jaw-dropping.
Soon, the exhausted parents couldn't stand their daughter's unreasonable demands, and after a fierce quarrel, they decided to completely cut off the last contact between the two.
Since then, the relationship between the father and daughter has been torn apart into a desperate situation.
It only adds to the pain
Cao's father and mother are very confident in their daughter's study in Germany, and they are looking forward to the Spring Festival in 2005, to reunite with their daughter, and ask her in detail about her study and living in a foreign country.
However, what is sad is that as early as the end of 2004, Cao Qian had secretly returned to China once, and returned to Germany soon after staying for more than ten days, and the parents who had been reunited after a long absence did not know about it.
After missing this opportunity, Cao's father and Cao's mother began to become increasingly anxious about their daughter's recent situation. On the one hand, she is worried about her living and studying alone, and on the other hand, she also vaguely hopes that she can take time to come back and reunite with her family.
It's a pity that Cao Qian has a completely different idea about this.
In 2003, Cao Qian began her master's degree studies at the prestigious University of Hamburg in Germany. For ordinary peasant families, it is undoubtedly an exciting thing to have children to study for a master's degree in a prestigious foreign university.
However, Cao Qian kept silent about it and did not share this great news with her family at all.
Although Cao's father and Cao's mother were a little confused, they didn't think much about it, but silently supported and looked forward to their daughter's development and progress in a foreign country. They are eagerly looking forward to the Spring Festival in 2005, to be able to reunite with their children, and to greet her in Germany for her study and living conditions.
The family is poor and can't celebrate the rich New Year every year, but even so, Cao's father and Cao's mother still carefully prepared some New Year's goods, for fear that the children would not eat well and live badly outside.
They even set aside a makeshift small bed for Cao Qian on the sofa. Full of anticipation, they waited for their daughter's return and the family reunion.
However, who would have thought that this rare opportunity for reunion would be missed by Cao Qiansheng. The Spring Festival in 2005 came, but only Cao's parents were relatively silent at home, and no one cared about the New Year's goods on the table.
In the blink of an eye, one festival after another was forgotten by Cao Qian in Germany, and the distance from her family became farther and farther away.
As time passed, Cao's father and Cao's mother became more confused about their daughter's whereabouts. They began to wonder if there was any omission in education that would make their daughter so cold and forgetful of her family.
In order to find clues to his daughter's whereabouts as soon as possible, Cao's father began to ask Cao Qian's classmates and friends everywhere, but unfortunately found nothing, as if the world had evaporated. Again and again, they were disappointed, and they were tormented physically and mentally, as if their lives were hanging by a thread.
Cao Qian refused to return to China
The long road to find a daughter came to an end, and when Cao's father and Cao's mother suffered from serious illnesses one after another, and their lives fell into a desperate situation, they were already in their twilight years. However, for being able to see his daughter again at the last moment of his life, this desire has always hovered in the heart of the second elder, thinking about it all the time.
Fate was merciless, and when Cao's father's illness turned to an advanced stage, the phone finally dialed the number of the rebellious daughter. For the news that their biological daughter, who they haven't seen for many years, is still alive, the hearts of the two elders are overflowing with joy, and they are very much looking forward to Cao Qian returning to China, so that they can take a last look at each other.
However, Cao Qian's reply was like a slap in the face, ruthlessly tearing apart the last trace of hope of the second elder. She said coldly: "I chose not to go home and chose to settle down in Germany, not because of emotional estrangement, but because I wanted to get rid of my parents and hope that each other could have a free breathing sky."
In the face of these ruthless words, the second elder, who had lived in a small farmhouse for a long time, could not understand his daughter's thoughts at all. They only felt that Cao Qian was confused by foreigners and forgot the roots.
The contrast between this judgment made Cao's father and Cao's mother feel painful and extremely sad. They thought that their daughter could be as docile and filial as when they were children, but who would have thought that when the second elder was dying, Cao Qian would hurt them so brazenly and like a knife.
Cao's father and Cao's mother tried to continue to look for their daughter through the media and other channels, but they failed in the end. In this way, the two poor old men died unjustly, and regretted that they could not meet their rebellious daughter Cao Qian for the last time.
This ending is undoubtedly like a bombshell, causing an uproar in society. Countless netizens condemned Cao Qian's actions for being extremely heinous, and regarded blood as a family affection that was thicker than water.
Although there were indeed inappropriate ways for parents to educate back then, they were sincere after all. However, Cao Qian took revenge and finally abandoned her parents in the abyss, which is suffocating.
