"Li Heng's family has staged a tragedy! His father cheated on him, his mother committed suicide, and he has a younger sister, but she was born out of wedlock!"
Zhao Ji thought to himself.
"If his father cherished this family and spent more time with his wife and children, then this family would still be a complete and warm family, and it would not be so fragmented."
Zhao Ji thought about his ex-wife's cheating again. Fortunately, he divorced decisively. Otherwise, another illegitimate child would be born. Wouldn't it be a replica of the tragedy of Li Heng's family?
"People, why don't you cherish the happy family life in front of you?"
"As the saying goes: Love is like sugar and marriage is like water. After the sweet love period, marriage life is as dull as water. If a married person, whether a man or a woman, is a playboy, he will always eat out of the bowl. Looking at the pot and looking at the height of another mountain, you will never be satisfied. Sooner or later, there will be a big problem. Once you put your ideas into action, a tragedy will happen."
"Actually, the best thing is to stay with the person in front of you."
he thought again.
Ever since Li Heng started talking about Li Shi, it was like a flood control dam collapsed, and the floods rushed down like wild beasts, unable to be shut down no matter how hard they were closed.
Through Li Heng's eloquent narration, Zhao Ji learned about Li Shi's growth process as an illegitimate child who suffered discrimination.
"The romantic affair between my father and Li Shi's biological mother was stirred up on the Internet by trolls hired by my mother, causing Li Shi's biological mother to live in the public opinion that others spit on for a long time."
"Why did your mother do this?"
"Because she hates her!"
"Oh, this..."
"After my father was imprisoned, Li Shi's biological mother even wanted to die because of the scandals and the public opinions attacking her on the Internet."
"The power of public opinion is as overwhelming as an overwhelming force. When one person spits out a mouthful of water, when there are more people, it becomes a river, which will drown people."
"Yes, when she saw her young daughter, she chose to be patient and determined to raise Li Shi up."
"Has she been fired from the hotel?" Zhao Ji asked.
Li Heng glanced at Zhao Ji.
"Of course, no unit can tolerate such a morally corrupt thing. Most units are afraid of tarnishing their reputation, so she looked for a job everywhere in the city. When they saw that she was a "mistress who destroyed other people's families" The protagonist of public opinion, no unit dares to accept her."
"Alas... this is a wall that everyone is pushing against!" Zhao Ji sighed again.
"She had no choice but to take Li Shi back to the countryside, her hometown."
"Oh, this is a good way to survive."
"But, you know, today's country people are not as simple and kind as before."
"That's true!"
"Have you seen Li Shi's mother with your own eyes?"
"I seem to have seen it before. I remember that day, she was walking arm in arm with my father on the street. She was wrapped in a dark scarf and a yellow shawl on her shoulders. Her side profile was clear. The land appears in my memory..."
"Oh, what's your impression of her?"
"I think she is a respectful, dignified and serious woman."
"Tell me, how was her life when she took Li Shi to the countryside?"
"Not good! For her, an illegitimate daughter, country people always look at her with discriminatory eyes. No matter where she goes, there are always people spitting at her or even scolding her. So she can't control her. Quite strict. She doesn't let her have contact with strangers, and Li Shi can't see anyone except her. She's not pampering, that is, she doesn't care too much."
"Oh, it's so scary to think about it! We can imagine what kind of harsh environment Li Shi lived in since she was a child." Zhao Ji said.
"However, she loved her very much and was always obedient to her. She felt in her heart that she was sorry for her. Li Shi soon understood that she was an important figure in the family. Slowly as she grew up, she realized , she has no father, she always asks where is her father? Her mother never answers. The more this happens, the more Li Shi wants to ask. Later, when she got tired of asking, her mother told the truth. Li Shi listened sadly. After crying a lot, she slowly understood her status as an illegitimate daughter..."
"Poor Li Shi... what a heavy blow this will be to her..."
"As a result, Li Shi's self-esteem developed strongly, and she also developed a suspicious mentality. Some bad habits were being developed, and simplicity disappeared. Li Shi wanted to make the whole world forget the origin of her illegitimate daughter. She was ashamed of her mother and ashamed of herself for having such shameful thoughts. So she took pride in her mother."
"Oh, it turns out that Li Shi has been living under the label of illegitimate daughter..."
"Yes, you can see that no matter in the past or now, she knows many things that she should not know at her age... But is this her fault?" Li Heng asked angrily.
"Of course this is not Li Shi's fault. Li Shi is innocent. This is a mistake made by adults, and it is impossible to get rid of it if it is imposed on innocent children." Zhao Ji said.
He couldn't calm down either.
"You are right! The vitality of youth is advancing in Li Shi, and her blood is boiling, but there is no one who can guide her correctly. Everything requires her to grow up completely freely and independently! Therefore, she developed such a bad character Temper. Ordinary people can’t stand it.”
"Well, but as you said, as long as we understand her life experience, we will tolerate it and it is understandable."
"Li Shi always wanted to appear to be no worse than others. So she studied hard. What good results could this have? An abnormal life took shape abnormally from the beginning, but her heart did not become bad and her intelligence was not affected. Damage. But people around her looked at her differently, and her temper became more and more irritable, often losing her temper at her mother for no reason."
…
"In this way, her mother suffered from Li Shi's complaints for a long time. She suffered from severe depression and finally committed suicide by jumping off the building."
"Alas..." Zhao Ji let out a long sigh after hearing this.
"The death of her mother was a heavy blow to her..."
"Of course, there is nothing sadder in the world than losing your parents when you were young."
"Later, she became very sensitive to dead people. In the first few days after my father died, she shuddered all over when she heard my voice, and my caressing made her sad. But then she gradually and step by step Get familiar with and get used to me."
"Well, when you get along, of course there must be a process of getting acquainted."
"Yes, later on when she was convinced that I really recognized her as my sister and loved her like a sister, she became passionately reluctant to leave me - she would never be half-hearted about any kind of feelings. Yes. I took her to the provincial capital."
"What about your uncle?"
"He died too, and he left me a large inheritance."
"oh……"
"I sent her to one of the best boarding schools. Although I feel sad to be separated from her, I can't live with her anyway. I can't let her not receive an education, right? Li Shi understands that we must separate. , but at first she was so sick that she almost died."
"and after?"
"Later, she finally got used to it and lived in the boarding school for four years. However, contrary to my expectations, she was still the same as before. Teachers from the boarding school often came to my home and complained to me for her, saying I am talking to Li Shi, if I say it more seriously, Li Shi will cry."
"Li Shi is so fragile!"
"Yeah, the teacher told me again that she can't listen to her nice words."
"Maybe this is the temperament of an illegitimate daughter!"
"However, Li Shi is very smart, has excellent academic performance, and is always among the best. But she never wants to be like ordinary people. She is stubborn and seems to be withdrawn... I can't blame her too much."
"Now I finally understand why you always accommodate her so much?"
