Ai Xiaoxiao's family lives in a low-rent housing in Hong Kong, also called government housing, or even a slum!
Her home is just a 30-square-meter apartment, but it can be used by three people. It is really crowded, but very cozy.
Pushing open the familiar door and looking at her aging mother and elderly grandfather, she was so excited that she shed tears of homesickness.
"Mom, grandpa, I'm back."
Looking at their daughter who had returned, Ai's mother and grandpa's eyes were filled with tears of excitement: "Xiaoxiao, how was your life in the mainland for three years like this?"
She smiled slightly and sat on the small sofa in the living room: "Mom, I am very happy living in mainland China."
This is what a son of man must know, that is, to report good things and not bad things. Her real life was actually not as she wished. She was betrayed by her boyfriend and almost raped by a mafia boss.
But these were only the two most tragic things she had experienced in the three years in mainland China. After that, it was smooth sailing...
The mother was worried when her son traveled thousands of miles. She looked at her daughter in front of her. She knew that her daughter had grown up. When she walked, she was only 1.3 meters tall. Now she is 1.6 meters tall. She is beautiful and mature. She has really transformed into a girl.
"Xiaoxiao, I cooked your favorite dish for you today." After Ai Mu said kindly, Ai Xiaoxiao went to wash her hands and get ready to start.
My favorite dish is Coca-Cola chicken wings. The living expenses of the whole family are earned by Ai Mu doing handiwork for others. Her grandfather does not have a pension, so the whole family depends on Ai Mu.
Mother makes a living.
However, Ai Xiaoxiao did very well in studies, so Ai's mother did not spend a lot of money on her. Even the Hong Kong University of Political Science and Law, where she now attends, was admitted free of charge.
"Grandpa, have a piece, mom, have a piece." She is very sensible. She has been like this since she was a child. If she has something delicious, she will give it to her mother and grandpa first.
As for her father...
Before she was born, Aimu told her that her father had died.
"Xiaoxiao, you should eat too." Ai Mu reached out and picked up a piece of chicken wing and gave it to her.
But she suddenly put down the chopsticks in her hand and took a deep breath: "Mom, I am 18 years old now, and I have decided to go to school while working!"
She had already planned this. She knew her mother's hard work, but it was difficult for her to find a job when she was under 18. Now she is finally 18, so it's time for her to contribute to the family.
After listening to her words, Ai Mu frowned slightly, put down the chopsticks in her hand, and looked a little serious: "Xiao Xiao, do you feel that the living expenses are not enough? If so, mom can give you more, you just need to go to school well now.
That’s it, you don’t need to worry about other things at all.”
Facing her mother's love, Ai Xiaoxiao felt very warm, but with such a good mother, how could she sit still and wait for death? Rely on her mother to support her?
"No, Mom, I have enough money, and now I am independent! So you don't know that I have always been a little chick who relied on my mother for protection, right?"
Ai Mu thought for a moment, and it was time for her children to learn to be independent: "Okay, but you can't delay your studies..."
