If you want a husband, you have to fight for it.

How should I talk about meeting my biological parents for the second time?

Wan Chuncao rested her head on her hands and looked up, recalling: "I wonder if there were people who came to school to sell books when you were studying?"

Come to school to sell books?

Xu Muyu had indeed never encountered such a person.

Wan Chuncao said: "It's like when he comes to school to give a lecture, and then all the teachers and students gather together to listen to his nonsense."

She said: "At that time, I was a sixth-grade primary school student and needed to go to the town to study as a boarding student for a year. Then one night the school organized us to listen to a lecture by a professor from a university in the city."

"The professor spoke passionately about how difficult it was for each of us to come into this world. It was our mothers who sacrificed half of their lives to bring us into this world. Our mothers are like candles, burning their lives to light the way forward for us."

"They walked on the yellow mud from morning till night, raising us with their hard-working hands. The sun tanned their skin yellow, and they aged before they could enjoy a single day. As their children, we cannot keep up with their aging speed."

The classmates around were all fascinated by the discussion, but Wan Chuncao didn’t understand why it was about tanning yellow instead of tanning tan, and her mother wasn’t yellow either.

But she felt that what he said was not wrong: "Then the man held up the book in his hand and said, "It's not too late. We study hard to repay our mothers. We get good grades to repay our mothers. The book in his hand is not 49.9 yuan. In order for our children to repay our mothers, this book only costs 19.9 yuan."

"He also said, 'My children, your mother lost half her life when she gave birth to you. Can't we repay them for even this little kindness? This 19.9 yuan book is nothing compared to the great maternal love.'"

That’s how you sell books…

Xu Muyu had never seen it, but he could understand the other party's sales tactics. They successfully sold their books to students by speaking a few tear-jerking sentences.

Did she buy it then?

"I bought it."

This is the first time that Wan Chuncao has spent money on "maternal love". She said: "I think what they said is right. My biological mother lost half her life to give birth to me. I have to repay her kindness."

Then the next day, without waiting for the holiday, Wan Chuncao went to the village again on foot.

"I went there once when I was little, and my parents never hid where the village was, so I knew where it was."

Wan Chuncao said: "The next day I asked for leave from my teacher and went to the village by myself."

Did she go there by herself? By herself? Did she not encounter any danger?

Xu Muyu frowned.

Guan Chuncao hiked for six hours and arrived at the village in the sunny afternoon.

I didn't meet any bad guys, and I didn't even meet any human beings.

"I relied on my memory to go to the village and find the family."

Wan Chuncao recalled that time and said: "Their house is still as shabby and old as when we went there, so it is easy to find."

"There are still many girls in their family, but this time when I went there, there was a little boy."

She still remembers the appearance of the little boy: "He was very clean. Compared with the three little girls next to him, those three little girls were not good enough. They were covered in snot and tears."

When they met, even though they hadn't seen each other for so many years, the woman recognized Wan Chuncao at first sight. She happily pulled Wan Chuncao to sit down, and called the man in the room to come out to see.

"That old man is gone. I think he must be dead, otherwise that woman wouldn't be so happy."

Wan Chuncao remembered that the woman was holding the little boy and calling out to people happily. She was very energetic: "A man soon came out of the room. He was not tall, and his face was very dark and smelly. He looked exactly like the old man. I thought it was the old man at the time, and I even called him 'Hello, Grandpa'."

The man glanced at Wan Chuncao at that time, and when he heard the woman's explanation of who Wan Chuncao was, he turned around and went into the house without saying a word.

That was the first time Wan Chuncao saw him, and also the last time.

"But the woman still liked me very much. She asked me to sit down and let me drink water."

Wan Chuncao thought she was a nice person: "She was a very nice person. While teasing the child in her arms, she also asked me if I was doing well, if I was eating well, and how I was doing."

"I looked at the three little girls playing in the sand on the ground and said, 'I'm doing fine.' She said, 'That's fine,' and even let me eat the pear."

"There was only one pear on the table. She gave it to me, and that was it. She asked me to eat it, and I wanted to eat it, but the three children were looking at me."

Wan Chuncao didn't eat a single bite of the pear. She didn't say another word after taking the pear.

"It's not that I don't want to say it, but she was always teasing the little boy. Her child was very cute and kept laughing in her arms."

Wan Chuncao stayed there for a long time, and it was almost dark, but the man in the house did not come out: "It's almost time for dinner, and he hasn't come out. I don't know what he is doing in the house, maybe he is sleeping. If he doesn't come out, the woman will have no time to cook while holding the child."

When it was time for dinner, the woman asked Wan Chuncao to stay for dinner.

Wan Chuncao agreed.

They sat for a while, until the sun went down. The woman was still teasing the child and asked Wan Chuncao several times to stay for dinner.

"The sun will set soon. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to see the road clearly."

Guan Chuncao sat until the sun was close to the horizon. The woman was still teasing the child and asked Guan Chuncao to wait for a while before having dinner together.

Guan Chuncao was not hungry yet, so he went back with the uneaten pear.

Walking to the door: "She stopped me again and asked me if she could give the pear in my hand to her brother to play with. My brother is still young and he thinks the pear is fun."

Xu Muyu was silent for a long time.

Wan Chuncao continued, "I returned the pear to her and left."

He walked to the door and turned back, giving her all the money he had in his pocket.

Guan Chuncao said, "I saved that money for half a year. It was three hundred and sixty-one yuan and twenty cents. I gave it all to her."

"I said, I'm here to repay you for giving birth to me."

How could I describe the woman's expression at that time? There was shock, surprise, and more of delight.

"But I told her I wouldn't come again."

She said: "The teacher said that we should repay our biological mothers for giving birth to us. I came here, and I have repaid her. So I will not come here in the future."

The woman's expression changed from surprise to shock, and finally to loss.

"But she finally asked me, do you still remember your brother?"

Wan Chuncao remembered that the woman held the little boy in front of her and asked her to look at the boy's face: "She said, this is your brother, remember to come back to find your brother in the future."

Xu Muyu fell silent again, feeling inexplicably blocked by something in his heart, feeling heavy and stuffy.

"I said, no, my sister is waiting for me at home, I have to go."

Wan Chuncao returned the pears and left without looking back: "I left. She couldn't catch up with me. I don't know if she chased me. Anyway, I left."

But what surprised Wan Chuncao was: "My dad had been waiting for me at school. He came to school to bring me food but couldn't find me. The teacher said I had asked for leave, so he waited for me at the school gate until dark."

Wan Chuncao walked all the way back to school. Halfway through, it started to get dark, and when he arrived at school, it was completely dark.

"You know my dad never gets angry all year. When he saw me, his face turned green, but he still managed to hold back his anger and ask me where I had been."

Wan Chuncao wanted to laugh when she thought of her father: "I said, I went to my biological mother's place. When my father heard that, he was no longer angry, and his dark face disappeared immediately."

"Then he took me home, back to my home."
