Thanos's biological daughter in period fiction

They were unwilling to contribute either money or effort. It was her grandmother who tirelessly took her to school time and time again, and paid her tuition and bought her books after school.

It's fair to say that her parents didn't treat her like their own child at all; if they could, they would have kicked her out of the house long ago.

But her grandmother was old and in poor health, and it seemed her body couldn't withstand the strain. She passed away from illness when she was in third grade.

From then on, she went to and from school by herself, rain or shine. In order to save them money, she would collect bottles and cardboard after school every day to save money for tuition and food.

His two uncles would give him a lot of money every time they came back, but they also knew that their uncles would give them money when they came back, and they would take it all away each time.

Grandma Chen downstairs lived alone. Feeling sorry for her, I let her hide her things there. The two of us maintained our relationship until the time when her parents divorced.

Actually, she had considered at that time whether she could live with Grandma Chen if neither of them wanted her. Grandma Chen said she could take her in.

But to her surprise, her two uncles came forward and took her away. The eight years she lived with her uncles were the happiest days of her life, apart from the time she spent with her grandmother.

As she ate the fish and looked at her mother, she missed her grandmother. The old lady who had only been with her for three years, yet had always taken such good care of her.

While she was feeling sad, her two older brothers' eyes lit up with excitement when they heard they could secretly go fishing.

"Mom, can we go beachcombing too, just sneak off..." It's been too long since they've been to the beach, and seeing the fish makes them want to go play again. Not only can they play, but they can also pick up some seafood, which can be eaten as a side dish even if it's not a meal.

"It's getting cold. Let's find some time soon to go over from this side of the mountain. Because of the mountain, very few people go there. We'll go secretly. When we go, ask your village chief for leave and say we're going to your dad's place for a couple more days. When they leave, they can take some things with them. There are caves over there where they can stay." She had been there before. At that time, her parents were sick, and she wanted to see if she could find some valuable things on the beach to sell. She found a very secluded cave there. He had cleaned it up, and there was even a set of bedding left there.

I haven't been there for over 10 years. I wonder if that place is still there? It's a crescent-shaped bay surrounded by mountains; you have to go down from the mountains to get there.

"Yay, that's great, we can go beachcombing..." The two older brothers' excited screams almost deafened Xia Yutang.

Liu Fangmei, however, was thinking about making some clothes for the little ones at Qingyu Residence these past few days, especially winter cotton-padded clothes, pants, shoes, and socks.

The clothes they used to wear were patched upon patched, with hardly a single piece of good fabric left. She brought those clothes with her when they moved, but she had already found them all when her husband needed them to pad things.

There are electric sewing machines inside Qingyu Residence, but they don't have electricity here, so they have to go inside to do it. However, he is worried about leaving his children outside.

Liu Fangmei thought that since they were going to the beach, for the children's safety, she wanted to try to carry her sleeping little girl inside tonight.

If they can get in, then they can also get in the two larger ones, which would greatly ensure their safety.

To verify her claim, after the meal, she prepared hot water for the children to wash up, left their old clothes behind, and sent them off to rest.

The clothes had quite a few patches, the pants were a little short but the clothes were okay. She knew how to use a sewing machine, but this was her first time using an electric sewing machine, so she thought she would try it out on these old clothes.

She carried the old clothes and pants to her own bedroom, lit an oil lamp, and let her little girl play on the kang (a heated brick bed) by herself.

Liu Fangmei took a ruler and began measuring the length of the clothes. After measuring all the dimensions of the top and bottom, she took out the hidden fabric from the clothes. She planned to keep these tattered clothes for them to wear while working.

Get them some similar fabric again and make them a few new outfits to change into. They'll need thick cotton-padded coats for winter. Their winters are so cold, and since they live near the sea, the sea breeze is always blowing, making it bitterly cold.

In previous years, these two children wore hand-me-downs from the children of the first and second wives. The clothes were so worn out that they couldn't be patched any further before ending up in the hands of the third wife.

The two military overcoats her husband brought home were altered into two coats that the children could wear, but they were snatched away by the eldest son's family as soon as they were put on.

At that moment, Liu Fangmei was furious and didn't care about anything else. The old man and woman in front of her grabbed the scissors on the table and cut the two pieces of clothing to shreds, and then poured a large basin of cold water on them.

Since the things her husband brought back couldn't be worn by her two sons, she would rather cut them up and throw them away than let the eldest son's family take them.

From then on, even if they were torn clothes, the first and second wives would no longer give them to them. Of course, Liu Fangmei didn't care either; she preferred to give him her husband's old clothes, even if they needed to be patched with other fabrics.

Like the old-fashioned shirts the two kids wore in the summer, those were all brought back by her husband from the army. Because of the incident with the clothes he picked up earlier, a generous person like her wouldn't want to embarrass herself in front of the two kids again.

However, they wouldn't let go of the food, since it was already in his stomach and they couldn't steal it or cut it off.

After organizing her things, seeing her little girl lying there peacefully asleep, she first tidied up the things and put them in a basket, then reached out to pick up her little girl. Xia Yutang, who had been organizing things in her own space, returned just as her mother picked her up.

However, she didn't open her eyes. Instead, she obediently kept them closed and pretended to be asleep. Suddenly, the wind around her ears changed, the air became fresher, and the temperature even rose a little. She knew that her mother had succeeded. She had been brought into the space by her mother.

After a while, she was placed in a soft place, she didn't know if it was a sofa or a mattress, but anyway, she had a place to sleep.

Here I am! I haven't slept on such a soft place in the past few days. I fell asleep as soon as I lay down.

Seeing that her daughter was sleeping soundly, Liu Fangmei quickly turned on the small lamp and started working. She finished altering the old clothes first, and then went to the storeroom to find fabric.

The warehouse had a wide variety of fabrics in different styles and colors, but the only ones available right now were black, white, gray, and military green. Although the two were twins, he didn't want to dress them in identical clothes all the time.

The two children's old clothes were too small for them, so she planned to make two of each color: one that they could wear now, and one a little bigger. She had plenty of cotton, so she planned to stuff the larger cotton coats for both children with extra padding. For her little girl, she chose two kinds of cotton fabric: white with pink floral print and white with blue floral print, and made several sets of cotton-padded clothes.
