The 199 version of the "Wife of Oz" movie tells the story of an ordinary Kansas girl being swept into the distant Oz country by a tornado, thus starting her wonderful adventure. The red leather shoes, the movie props worn by the little girl, was finally won by collectors for an unimaginable high price of $660,000.

Xiaoxue doesn’t know what the concept of $660,000 is. She only knows that the money can definitely be bought, and many ** gourds she likes to eat.

Although her name is Xiaoxue, she prefers summer because it is very cold in the mountains in winter, her winter clothes are not thick enough, and she rarely can afford the ** gourd that she likes to eat.

At the age of 15, Xiaoxue was a little thinner than her peers because her nutrition was not up to date, but in the eyes of her elders, she "has become a beauty."

She studied well and had one of the best grades in the class. Before returning to the city, the teacher gave her a lot of books, including the original story of the movie "The Wizard of Oz" "The Magician of Oz".

Xiaoxue cherishes these books very much and yearns for the big cities that the teacher talks about. She doesn't know that not everyone in big cities is as kind as a teacher. To this day, if you type "girls in poor mountainous areas" in Baidu searches, you will automatically fill in the bloody words "price" later.

Her biggest wish is to go to high school in the city, even if it is not a big city or a small county. The dream high school campus is as magical as Oz to her.

"Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue? Have you seen your brother? Tell him to go home for dinner!"

With infinite longing for the future, looking up at Xiaoxue, who is full of stars on the summer night, I often have to be reminded by my grandmother before I can find my playful brother at the entrance of the village and have a dinner mainly based on corn together.

My mother thought she had left poor in the mountains and never came back. My father had been drinking for a long time and occasionally went to the county town to do odd jobs. Usually, the siblings had a bad life and were managed by her grandmother.

Xiaoxue would look forward to her father going home because her father brought back the money from working, so she could buy her ** gourd. At the same time, Xiaoxue was afraid that her father would go home because the middle-aged man who had red eyes and had a red beard when he drank, often muttered to her grandmother: "It's useless for girls to study, it's better to marry early than anything else."

My younger brother is playful and doesn’t have a good study, and he likes to hit people with branches, so Xiaoxue and her younger brother have no common language. Whenever the mountain village that is not powered is shrouded in the dark, the loneliness in her heart is endless.

Until one night, she rescued a black cat under the collapsed fence of her home, and since then she has an inseparable friend.

The black cat's fur is as dark as the night, and its deep eyes seem to envelop the universe and time. There has never been such a rare cat in the village before. It suddenly arrived, as if it came from another world.

"Xiao Hei, do you know? I'm going to study in high school. I don't want to stay in this place all my life. After graduation, I will work hard to make money and let my family live a good life."

Every time Xiaoxue calls it that, the black cat just licks its claws, as if it has defaulted on this name, or the name has no practical meaning to it, because in the entire mountain village it is only willing to approach Xiaoxue and will only respond to Xiaoxue's call.

Xiaoxue talked to Xiao Hei. She had no food to feed it. She admired Xiao Hei's heroic posture of catching field mice under the moon, and could even see Xiao Hei catching fish in the stream.

"It must be a precious variety that ran out of the city! It would be worth a lot of money if you catch it and sell it?"

"The coat color is so good, it's better to peel it and make gloves..."

Some people in the village always stare at Xiao Hei with terrible eyes. Xiao Hei knows that others are thinking about him, but he always raises his head and tail. Once someone approaches, he immediately jumps into the black shadow. Even those who have caught a rabbit on the mountain cannot touch its edge.

"Xiao Hei, you are so agile, how could you be hit by the fence?"

When the fallen leaves are covered with dirt roads in autumn, Xiaoxue once asked Xiaohei this, but Xiaohei still licked his claws on his own, as if the survival of the entire universe is not as important as its claws, or it is destined to meet Xiaoxue, and no matter how agile he is, he will jump out of his fate.

Xiaoxue also likes autumn because in autumn, she can wear the pink sweater given to her by the teacher. There is a cartoon image on the sweater that she cannot call out, which is more fashionable than all her clothes.

However, winter is still here, and she is huddling in a corner of the cold room. Xiaoxue dares to take off her shoes and go to bed because she will get cramps due to coldness.

There was no food this winter. My father went to work in the county and never came back. Some people said he had a good woman in the county, while others said he beat someone in the detention center drunk.

Snowflakes were floating outside the house, and the snow became even colder.

Whenever she was so cold that she couldn't stand it, Xiao Hei would appear silently, climb onto Xiaoxue lazily, get into her arms, and use her natural fur and body temperature to keep her warm.

Xiao Hei is not a cat she has. It is wild and unruly. I'm afraid it has never been a domestic cat at all. But at this moment, its home is Xiaoxue's embrace, and Xiaoxue also warms her heart in the embrace.

"Xiao Hei, only you and grandma care about me the most! I will take you to the city in the future. You must bless me to get good grades in the middle school entrance examination!"

Time flies, and it is Xiaoxue’s favorite summer again. She walked into the middle school entrance examination room with confidence, walked out with confidence, waiting for the release of the exam day by day.

The tuition fee problem has been solved. The teacher who supported the teacher was worried that Xiaoxue would lose school, so he specially took a part of her not-so-rich salary and sent it to Xiaoxue's grandmother, even Xiaoxue's younger brother had the tuition fee.

The girl's heart was so excited that she could almost see the extremely beautiful high school campus and the life trajectory that had been changed by hard work.

The day of the list is here, and Xiaoxue's grades are among the top three nearby poor villages. However, when she showed Xiao Hei's transcript, the cat could not feel Xiaoxue's joy for the first time.

Or, it knows what will happen next.

"Dad, did Dad take my brother away? He said he needed money to remarry, so even the tuition fee..."

When she learned the bad news from her grandmother, she was cold all over. Not only did her fate play a big joke with her on this list date that should have been delighted, but also because her father robbed money from her grandmother that she made it clear that she would let her brother go to high school in the future, even if her brother's grades were bad, but the money could not be left to the girl. The girl was an outsider and a money-losing guy.

"Why do you do this to me? I will spend it on you if I make money in the future!!"

Xiaoxue knelt down on the ground and covered her face and cried. Grandma, who was injured by her own son, could not get up to comfort her granddaughter. Xiao Hei, who had always been aware of the cold and hot, he hesitated and did not step forward.

It is willing to give all its money to comfort the heartbreaking Xiaoxue, but it knows that no matter what it does at this moment, it will not change what will happen next.

Because that has happened long ago.

"--don't want!"

Lin Qin woke up from the cabin of the Flower Sea, half sat up, her face covered in sweat and her eyes were blurred. The maid Alpha hurried over to check the situation.

"Miss, what's wrong with you? Did you dream of something sad again?"

"No." Lin Qin waved her hand, her voice weak and cold, like the bitter summer night in a distant mountain village. Alfa saw tears flowing from Lin Qin's eyes, but she did not dare to remind the lady to know.

"I'm not sad, I've been used to this kind of thing...but the smell of rats is still too bitter." (To be continued)
