God arranges for everyone to come to this world at a certain time, but there is no guarantee that everyone will be safe and smooth.
Compared with those students in the city who travel around during the summer vacation and attend various study classes and skill classes, Hutao's summer vacation is much more monotonous.
After passing the college entrance examination, Hutao ushered in a long vacation. She really felt that way, because this vacation made her have a very hard time.
She does not have a family that makes her feel happy. Her father is lazy and likes to drink. He gets up at 11 o'clock every day and drinks and goes crazy at night.
She never understood what kind of person her father was.
He was lazy, but he still did what he had to do, and he still provided for her to study. Even when he got drunk and went crazy, he never scolded her. He just grabbed her mother and scolded her.
Her mother was diligent but couldn't get anything done. She was very busy every day, so busy that her feet never touched the floor, but she did nothing and her life never changed.
I endured all kinds of abuse from my father and lived quietly.
Mom always tells Hu Tao that it will be fine when you get out, so you must study hard and escape from this home and such a depressing life.
This family is really depressed to the extreme. In addition to a great person like his father, there is also an elderly grandmother.
Grandma is old, but elegant. She is proficient in things that Hutao thinks only boys can do, such as smoking and drinking.
There are two alcoholics in the family, her father and grandmother. She always thinks that this is the inherited gene, so the two mothers and children are so similar. A pound of liquor every day, starting from five or six o'clock in the evening, to about nine o'clock in the evening, there is basically only one empty space.
Bottle.
Then many nights turned into a lively and chaotic home.
Her grandma started to curse and scold the cheating grandpa.
Yes, the thing she hears the most every day is how bad her grandfather is, how bad, and how scumbag he is.
In her mind, her grandfather is a complete scumbag.
I don’t care about the birth of a child, I just care about having enough food for myself, I don’t care about the life and death of my children and my wife at home.
She cheated on her husband during marriage, and finally took her mistress away.
Her grandma had to talk about this kind of thing every day. It seemed that only by scolding him countless times could her grandma relieve her anger.
In dad's eyes, whatever mom does is wrong, and even if she doesn't do it, it's wrong. Even if she cooks a meal, she can tell countless right and wrong.
She has never been able to figure out what her mother did wrong, nor why her mother endured it for so many years without doing anything.
She even encouraged her mother to divorce, but the days continued like this without any change.
Standing on the top of the mountain, she could see the entire small village below the mountain. The sun had not risen high, and she could still see the mist that had not dispersed.
And there is still a mountain on the other side of the mountain, and there is still a mountain on the other side of the mountain.
Surrounded by mountains with no end in sight, she felt breathless.
She was walking through the woods, looking for trees that had been cut down.
Those trees were pine trees that had just grown half-grown. They were not thick, but slender and slender. As long as she exerted all her strength, she could still carry the entire tree.
These are used as materials for building houses and are called rafters.
Today her task is to transport all the rafters scattered all over the mountain to the side of the mountain bike.
Of course, these rafters did not belong to her family, but were cut by an uncle in the village. She had already negotiated a price and paid her two hundred yuan for transporting all the rafters to the foot of the mountain.
The two hundred yuan may be just a little bit to others, but to her it is already a huge sum of money.
After a while, she will go to school to report and go to college.
Going to college requires a lot of tuition, and she has to raise all the money during this holiday.
So she works odd jobs everywhere in the village every day.
It's all physical work, just like today. No girl would be willing to do this work except her.
She carefully searched for every rafter in the mountain, and then took advantage of the steep slope to slide the rafters one by one to the foot of the mountain.
Fortunately, the rafters are all straight and round. As long as there is no obstruction in front, you can roll down a long distance with just a push.
It was a bit difficult at the beginning, but now I have mastered some skills and my speed is getting faster and faster.
But it is undeniable that it is indeed very strenuous. She is so tired that she is sweating profusely and feels that her whole body is wet.
She worked very seriously and attentively, until a ringing phone interrupted her. She straightened up and took out a somewhat worn mobile phone from her pocket.
He glanced at the number and saw that it was from their high school teacher. Without thinking anything, he answered the phone.
A minute later, she hung up the phone and the corners of her mouth turned up unconsciously.
Their high school teacher found a job for her, and she needed to go there for about ten days. The other party promised to give her three thousand yuan, including round trip expenses, food and accommodation.
At first, I thought this was definitely impossible, how could such a good thing happen, but the caller was their high school teacher, so she couldn't have mistaken the person, and she felt relieved again.
Then put down the phone and start concentrating on the work in hand.
Although she had to leave tomorrow, she still had to earn money today, so she got into the mood quickly.
Because I have to go on a long trip tomorrow, I suddenly feel that I am not tired at all from doing this job now.
At noon, she ate the steamed buns she brought from home in the morning with cold water, and then continued working.
When the sun went down and the afterglow of the setting sun slowly disappeared, she transported all the rafters to the designated location.
She did a rough count and found that there were about two hundred in total.
When she was limping on the way home, she felt that her entire body was no longer her own, and she couldn't even straighten her feet and walk properly.
Sometimes I think about her life and look at other little girls her age. They wear clean clothes every day and watch TV at home during the holidays. The heaviest jobs are cooking and washing clothes.<
/p>
Looking at herself again, she was covered in dust and sweat. Her hair was stuck to her scalp one by one due to sweat, which made her feel particularly uncomfortable. Her hands were sore and the skin was broken a lot.
Dragging my tired body home, as usual, my mother was cooking alone, while my father and grandma were sitting by the firepit drinking.
Fortunately, there was no quarrel heard at home today, which made her feel a lot more relaxed.
When her mother saw her coming back, she asked with concern about today's situation. She just said it was over and told her to go to her uncle's house tomorrow to get today's wages.
After taking a shower, it was already dark, and their family just started having dinner.
She didn't want to talk more, but she was going out tomorrow for ten days, so she explained the situation. Initially, her father didn't want to agree, but after hearing her say that she could earn three thousand yuan in ten days, he reluctantly agreed.<
/p>
Perhaps because she is leaving tomorrow, there is unprecedented peace at home.
The family began to help her prepare items for her trip tomorrow.
She felt that their home was still warm occasionally, like tonight.
She wondered if this family would be more harmonious if they were not so poor.
