After the car accident, she lay down and ate melon

After hearing the private detective's report, Gu Xiaoxiao's thoughts could not help but drift back to the years that she had almost forgotten.

Although the conditions in the South City Orphanage were not very good, it was barely enough for the children to eat until they were 70% full and they were not cold. Fights would occasionally break out in order to make their lives better.

Gu Xiaoxiao was a small, tender and cute girl at that time. Her big, watery eyes seemed to be able to speak. When she stared at people, it always made people feel as if their eyes were melting.

In addition, because the little girl is sweet-mouthed and good-looking, the uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters in the orphanage are all willing to pamper Gu Xiaoxiao.

The only one who was there was the security guard, Uncle Yang, who had a finger-long scar running from his eyebrow to his cheek.

In the few memories that Gu Xiaoxiao had, Uncle Yang always had a stern face. He was very strict and unkind. Coupled with the hideous scars, Uncle Yang looked ferocious and gloomy.

Almost all the children in the orphanage, young and old, were very afraid of him.

Little Dumpling, Gu Xiaoxiao is no exception.

In order to avoid having nightmares, Gu Xiaoxiao almost always took a detour and never went to the front door.

If she had to go, every time Gu Xiaoxiao saw Grandpa Yang, she would be like a mouse seeing a cat. She was so scared that she dared not even breathe and could only stick to the wall and slip along the edge.

The security guard usually lies on a recliner at the gate, fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan from time to time.

Whenever a child sneaked to the gate or passed by, he would accurately raise his eyelids to take a glance at them, and then continue to lie down listening to the radio and fanning himself with a palm-leaf fan.

As long as they didn't leave the house, Grandpa Yang would usually turn a blind eye and treat these children as if they were just a bunch of air...

Apart from this psychological shadow that had been growing in Xiaotuanzi's heart, she had been living a relatively happy life until the Gu family came to the orphanage to adopt Gu Xiaoxiao.

After all, they have food and drink and don’t have to get beaten. The duels and competitions between children are all friendly exchanges. After a fight and a nap, they are good friends again the next day.

If the problem is serious, then just be angry for a few days and then make up.

When Gu Xiaoxiao grew up, she returned to the orphanage many times and asked the director about her background.

Especially when the Gu family was having trouble making ends meet and punished her by not allowing her to eat or sleep until she finished her housework... Gu Xiaoxiaoye had thought about finding her biological parents and family countless times.

Gu Jianguo and Wang Cuiping were much more patient with Gu Yuhang. Even if he made a huge mistake, he would not be beaten, let alone go hungry or be unable to go to school... those were simply impossible.

Gu Xiaoxiao watched Gu Jianguo and Wang Cuiping doting on Gu Yuhang, and she wondered if only biological parents would treat their children well???

So, at that time, Gu Xiaoxiao really wanted to find her biological parents. She wanted to ask them face to face why they threw her away when she was still a baby.

It's still a cold winter.

She also wanted to ask her relatives whether they had ever regretted it.

I also want to ask, have her biological parents ever thought about her for even a minute over the years?

Until Gu Xiaoxiao was 10 years old, Wang Cuiping and Gu Jianguo still did not allow Gu Xiaoxiao to go to school. She was like a free babysitter at home every day, doing endless housework...

And Gu Jianguo's mother, Mrs. Gu, was always making things difficult for him.

"You little bitch, the water is so hot, do you want to scald me to death?"

The old lady of the Gu family spoke loudly, with one hand on the waist of the bucket and the other hand holding a one-meter-long and two-finger-wide bamboo board, and she hit Gu Xiaoxiao's calves, arms, back, buttocks and other places that were covered by clothes and rarely seen.

The old woman gnashed her teeth and said, "Gu Xiaoxiao, you are a bastard born by a mother but not raised by one. If it weren't for you, how could our Yu Wei be lost?"

"Why do not you go to hell?"

"Little bastard, hurry up and clean the floor for me..."

As soon as the old woman saw Gu Xiaoxiao standing up straight, she started cursing. Gu Xiaoxiao looked at the children from the neighborhood who were all able to go to school, and her envious eyes were almost glued to those children.

Even if I get beaten, it doesn't matter if I can go to school.

The neighbor took pity on Xiao Xiao and reported it directly.

At that time, there were many typical cases of catching fish without a plan, and the Gu family did not dare to continue detaining Gu Xiaoxiao and preventing her from going to school. Otherwise, they would be invited to the police station for questioning, and if there were any work units involved, the whole city might be notified.

Gu Jianguo said, "Xiaoxiao, you see, our family is really poor. Grandma's illness costs a lot of money, and now we have to raise money for her surgery..."

"It's not that I don't want to send you to school, it's just that I can't afford the tuition and can't support two children..."

10-year-old Gu Xiaoxiao doesn’t know how much tuition she will have to pay.

Her big eyes rolled around, looking at the whole room. She still slept under the stairs, in a room separated by a layer board that was just big enough to put a small steel bed. If she wasn't so thin, she wouldn't even be able to put her legs in, so she could only get into bed from the end of the bed every day...

It seems that the Gu family is really poor... the 10-year-old Gu Xiaoxiao made a hasty judgment in her heart.

"Xiaoxiao, you are not our Gu family's biological daughter. If you want to go to school, you will have to pay for tuition, books, living expenses...all these expenses will have to be paid by yourself."

"We are all doing this for your own good. You already owe our family the karma..."

Gu Jianguo was brainwashing Gu Xiaoxiao, and Wang Cuiping was cursing beside him. Now it seems that both of them are acting masters, one plays the good guy and the other plays the bad guy, setting up a trap specifically for Gu Xiaoxiao.

Gu Xiaoxiao was also silly. As long as she could go to school, she would do whatever she was asked to do and she never doubted it.

……

When she saw other classmates being picked up and dropped off by their parents and truly doting on them, Gu Xiaoxiao fantasized in her heart that it wasn't that her parents didn't want her, they just had their own reasons...

When her adoptive mother Wang Cuiping despised her and said she was a money-loser, Gu Xiaoxiao also wanted to ask her biological parents if they also despised her for being a girl and that her survival was a waste of food, so they abandoned her at the door of the orphanage in the cold winter and left her to fend for herself?

When Wang Cuiping used the black fingers between her nails to poke or scratch her little face, Gu Xiaoxiao had asked her biological parents thousands of times in her dreams, would they also dislike her face as a vixen?

……

So many times in the dead of night, when she was alone and helpless and couldn't hold on any longer, Gu Xiaoxiao would always ask repeatedly in her dreams with tears in her eyes, but unfortunately, she never got an answer...

The private detective in South City hadn't heard Gu Xiaoxiao's voice and thought the phone signal was bad. He looked at the phone screen several times to make sure the call was still going on and the signal was full.

He hissed, frowning, and turned up the volume on his phone, but still couldn't hear Gu Xiaoxiao's voice. He shouted into the phone inexplicably:

"Miss? Miss?"
