There were so many people who beat Jiang Shengtian that he couldn't even remember their faces.

If the factory still existed, he might have been able to ask for help and request an investigation.

But now the factory no longer exists, and Jiang Shengtian has no way to find those who beat people up, so he can only swallow his loss in silence.

Seeing that Jiang Shengtian couldn't even open his mouth, Song Qingmei felt that it was futile to ask him, so she turned to a passing nurse to ask about the situation.

The nurse did not respond to her question, but simply stuffed a thick stack of bills into her hands.

Song Qingmei held the bills tightly in her hands. The medical expenses shown on them were as high as more than 30,000 yuan.

Two years ago, they used up all their savings to pay the down payment for a new two-bedroom house, and they now have only 40,000 yuan left.

In addition to the monthly mortgage payments, they also have to cover the daily expenses of a family of three.

As well as my son’s college tuition and tutoring fees.

Song Qingmei looked at Jiang Shengtian lying on the hospital bed, and even felt like she wished he would die.

If he dies, maybe I can get compensation, which is better than him being half-dead now and having to pay for his medical treatment myself.

But Song Qingmei thought about her salary again. She only earned more than 3,000 yuan, while Jiang Shengtian earned 5,000 yuan.

If he died, there would be one less income earner in the family, and the pressure would only increase.

After paying the fees, Song Qingmei thought about moving Jiang Shengtian back home.

In the hospital, the hospitalization fees are like running water, and a lot of money is spent every day.

But she was alone now and couldn't move Jiang Shengtian at all, and Jiang Shining was in school, so she couldn't disturb him.

In desperation, Song Qingmei could only go home to cook.

After all, I have taken the day off, so I can take this opportunity to make some shrimp and sour beef that my son likes.

Song Qingmei was busy in the kitchen. The shrimp sour sauce in the pot exuded an enticing aroma. She completely forgot that patients were not suitable for eating spicy food.

What does the patient Jiang Shengtian mean to her? In her opinion, only Jiang Shining is the pillar of the future.

Song Qingmei had just finished making the sauce and was looking forward to her son coming home from school to taste the delicacy, but suddenly she received a call from the finance department of the garment factory.

The finance lady's tone was extremely harsh. She shouted, "Song Qingmei, forget about your salary this month, and don't come here anymore."

When Song Qingmei heard this, her forehead instantly heated up and she asked anxiously, "Why?"

The other party didn't have time to explain to her, but just cursed viciously: "You scumbag!"

"It's unlucky for the factory to hire you, you're a jinx!"

Then he hung up the phone with a "bang".

Song Qingmei stood there holding the spatula, and the world seemed to collapse in an instant.

She was already worried about Jiang Shengtian's medical expenses, which cost her more than 30,000 yuan. Now her salary was deducted and she lost her job.

How should we proceed in the future?

The rich aroma of shrimp sour sauce filled the air in the kitchen, but Song Qingmei's heart was filled with despair.

Song Qingmei didn't know what she had done wrong. She was treated like this just because she took a day off.

Why is life so cruel to her?

Jiang Mian used to always ask why he encountered misfortune, but he stopped asking after growing up.

......

That night, the atmosphere in the house was extremely depressing.

Looking at her son with a bruised face and her husband who had lost the ability to control himself, Song Qingmei felt her legs go weak and she fell to the ground.

With tears streaming down her face, she cried out in sorrow, "What sin have we committed? We are so unlucky today."

My father was beaten so badly that he became disabled, and my mother was fired and had her salary docked.

Thinking about the group of people who taught him a lesson today, Jiang Shining almost instantly figured out the reason.

Everything that happened at home was related to my sister who worked away from home.

Jiang Shining looked at his emotional mother and said in a hoarse voice, "You will suffer the consequences if you do evil."

His eyes revealed a hint of mixed emotions.

Song Qingmei stopped crying, quickly grabbed him and asked, "What do you mean by asking this? What do you know? Who is harming us?"

Jiang Shining looked at her coldly and said, "You guys did this to yourself."

After saying this, he walked straight into the room without even eating and locked the door.

Song Qingmei stood outside the door, knocking frantically and shouting, "Speak up! I'm your mother, is there anything you can't tell me?"

When Jiang Shining heard the violent knocks on the door, he became more and more annoyed and covered his ears tightly.

Sometimes, Jiang Shining can feel the love of his parents. Their warm gazes and caring words make him feel loved.

However, sometimes he felt that his parents' love was not pure and seemed to have specific purposes and expectations.

Faced with his sister's revenge, he felt pain and guilt.

Suffering comes from physical pain, while guilt is self-inflicted.

As he grew older, it became increasingly clear to him that he was a vampire, sucking his sister's blood.

When he was a child, he was the only one who lived with his parents in the city, he was the only one who wore clean clothes, he was the only one who had toys and snacks, while his sister had such good academic performance but could not continue her studies.

Jiang Shining felt guilty because he was the beneficiary, but no one ever asked him whether he wanted these things.

He hated studying, hated self-touching love, hated his parents' self-sacrifice, and hated this suffocating family.

If possible, Jiang Shining just wants to be a leaf in autumn.

In mid-air, on the lake surface.

Floating in the wind, free and easy.

The loud noise interrupted Jiang Shining's thoughts like thunder.

Outside the door, Song Qingmei was hammering the door handle.

"Boom-"

"Boom-"

The knocking sound was particularly harsh in the quiet night.

"I'm your mother! Is there anything you can't tell me?" Song Qingmei's voice was filled with anger and anxiety.

"The family is already in such a state, how come you are not sensible at all?"

"Why aren't you talking?" Song Qingmei's voice was accompanied by the sound of knocking: "Come out and tell me!"

Jiang Shengtian, who was lying on the sofa, glanced at her: This spendthrift woman, doesn’t it cost money to repair the broken door?

Jiang Shining suddenly opened the door, and at that moment, the hammer hit his left arm.

The intense pain made his facial features wrinkle instantly, but he didn't have time to cry out in pain.

Song Qingmei was so frightened that she screamed, "What if I hit my hand? How can I take the exam if I can't hold the pen?"

Then she breathed a sigh of relief, "Fortunately, it was only my left hand that was hit. It won't affect my studies."

Song Qingmei looked at her son's painful expression and couldn't help but complain, "Why don't you come out sooner or later?"

Jiang Shining felt even more sad when he heard his mother's words.

In this family, he is just a tool for examination and a carrier for realizing expectations.

Not alone.

Jiang Shining pointed at Song Qingmei and roared with red eyes: "Can you treat me as a human being?"

Song Qingmei's anger grew stronger. "She ran away from home because she had to support your education and Jiang Mian couldn't afford it."
