Quick Wear: Don't Follow the Plot and Feel Good

Chapter 175 How difficult is it to escape from your original family?

Zhou Changping suffers from congenital brittle bones, which causes developmental delays and makes him prone to falling. He walks with a limp and is often confined to a wheelchair.

Yu Meixiang heard that bone marrow transplantation could cure osteogenesis imperfecta, so she discussed it with Zhou Haiyang and gave birth to her second child, Zhou Ruoruo.

Zhou Ruoruo was born with developmental delay, just like her brother, and she often fell while walking when she was three years old.

Yu Meixiang and her husband decided to give Zhou Changping a bone marrow transplant, even though the doctor told her that it couldn't cure the disease.

Sure enough, after the bone marrow transplant, Zhou Changping remained the same as before, while Zhou Ruoruo became weaker than before.

Seeing that their son's condition showed no improvement, the couple became even more hostile to Zhou Ruoruo. They never let her sit at the table to eat, and never gave her clothes to wear.

Grandma Zhou even broke a steamed bun into two halves, threw one half to the dog and the other half to Zhou Ruoruo.

Half a steamed bun was not enough to fill her up, but luckily there was Zhou Changping, who always secretly gave Zhou Ruoruo the meat and rice he had hidden in the middle of the night.

Later, when Zhou Ruoruo went to school, a boy in her class bullied her. Zhou Changping happened to see it, took out the knife he carried with him, and stabbed the boy's hand directly.

At that moment, Zhou Ruoruo felt that her brother was the best person in the world for her. She vowed to be good to her brother for the rest of her life.

Later, Zhou Ruoruo's new homeroom teacher took pity on her and took her to see her father, an old Chinese doctor. He said that she did not have brittle bones, but was suffering from malnutrition since the womb, poor development, and poor blood circulation.

He gave Zhou Ruoruo acupuncture every day to dredge her blood circulation. Two months later, Zhou Ruoruo found that she no longer fell down as often as before, and could even run and jump. She was so happy that she was overjoyed.

She once asked an old Chinese doctor if her brother's condition could be cured, but the doctor said it was difficult to cure.

At first, Zhou Changping was happy for Zhou Ruoruo. But as time went by, seeing someone who used to limp like him become a normal person, running like a butterfly, his mentality began to change slowly. He became jealous and resentful, and then framed his sister.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to fall into the icy river and falsely accused Zhou Ruoruo of pushing him.

Yu Meixiang and Zhou Haiyang finally lost their patience with Zhou Ruoruo and sent her to her aunt Zhou Haiyan's house to be her daughter, and also moved her household registration there.

Zhou Haiyan has been married for many years but has not been able to have children, and her husband Wang Dayong is always having affairs outside.

On the first night Zhou Ruoruo came to her house, Wang Dayong came to her bed. She was so scared that she picked up the tip of the pen at hand and stabbed it into Wang Dayong's temple. While he was stunned, she jumped off the bed, picked up a stool and smashed it at him, hitting his head with blood.

From then on, Zhou Ruoruo gained a reputation for cruelty after being so vicious as to push her own brother into the river.

At that time, she was still in elementary school and didn't dare go home after school because she knew what it meant to go home.

When she was hungry and picking up food from the trash can, the old man who often picked up rags came over and said, "If you have nowhere to go, come and stay at my place."

The old man collected a lot of rags and found many textbooks, which he handed to Zhou Ruoruo.

It was then that Zhou Ruoruo felt at home for the first time. She called the old man "Grandpa." Although neither of them had enough to eat or money to spend, they relied on each other.

Zhou Ruoruo swore that when she grew up, she would provide for the old man in his old age.

The good times didn’t last long. Two months later, Wang Dayong finally found where Zhou Ruoruo was.

When she got home from school, she found a pool of blood on the floor. The old man was already dead. She turned around and saw Wang Dayong grinning smugly. He said it was a good thing the old man died, saying he was a human trafficker who had kidnapped my daughter.

At this moment, Zhou Ruoruo hated it to the extreme.

At night, when Wang Dayong sneaked into her room again, she went in without hesitation.

Because Zhou Ruoruo was under 10 years old, there was no legal punishment. After Wang Dayong's death, Zhou Haiyan also committed suicide.

From then on, Zhou Ruoruo gained the reputation of a murderer. At such a young age, he dared to kill people.

She had no friends, and her classmates didn't even dare to talk to her. This was just right, as it allowed her to concentrate on her studies.

Fortunately, her homeroom teacher took pity on her and secretly gave her money for meals, otherwise she would have starved to death.

When I was older, I worked part-time while studying. I finally got into the university of my choice, and then I took the postgraduate entrance exam and then the doctoral program.

At this time, the Zhou family knew her value. Although they no longer scolded her, they asked for money every time they opened their mouths.

So Zhou Ruoruo decided to go abroad and never planned to return.

But Zhou Changping got the news from somewhere and blocked her way. As the family was arguing, Zhou Haiyang even pushed her into the traffic.

"I want to leave this family, why is it so difficult? Also, I want grandpa to live, I haven't provided for him in his old age yet."

"As you wish!" After saying that, Sheng Jiang disappeared.

……

Protect the old man who picks up trash?

By the time Zhou Ruoruo was in third grade, she had been adopted by her aunt. Because she had injured Wang Dayong, she was afraid to go home, so the old man who picked up scraps took her in.

On this day, Wang Dayong, who had disappeared for a month, found the old man and started cursing as soon as he opened his mouth.

"You old scoundrel, how dare you kidnap my daughter? I'm telling you, don't think my daughter can live with you just because she follows you. Her household registration is in my house!"

The old man wanted to say something, but he heard Wang Dayong's laughter again. "Old man, don't you see what kind of moral character you have? How dare you kidnap a child? I'll beat you to death!"

He picked up a stick from the garbage dump and was about to hit the old man. "Even if I beat you to death, I won't go to jail. After all, you're a human trafficker, and everyone wants to kill you!"

As a result, the stick did not fall on the old man, but hit himself directly, causing him to scream in pain.

The old man saw Jiang and asked, "Why are you here? School isn't over yet."

"I'm on leave."

"Go back to class, I don't have anything to do here."

Sheng Jiang looked at Wang Dayong who was waving the stick non-stop, "You call this okay?"

The old man smiled on his dark and dry face. "I'm just a rag picker. They won't do anything to me. But you can't do that. You have to study hard and provide for my retirement in the future. Taking a day off will delay a lot of schoolwork."

"Don't worry, Grandpa, I have finished my lessons for today."

Jiang said, "Grandpa, I'll go home tonight. There are always things that need to be resolved. Starting tomorrow, we will live together forever, okay?"

The old man's face was lonely for a moment. After all, his household registration was not with him. He still looked worried, "Then you should be careful. They are not easy to mess with."

"I know, Grandpa"

Sheng Jiang walked up to Wang Dayong and said, "Wang Dayong, aren't you going to take me home? I'll go back with you."

Wang Dayong was now a little more sober. He looked at Jiang, who seemed to have grown a little taller and whiter, and glared at the old man fiercely, "You old idiot, I'll let you go today! If you dare to kidnap my daughter again, I'll beat you to death!"

That night, Wang Dayong once again broke into Sheng Jiang's room. This time, Sheng Jiang didn't kill him. Instead, she manipulated him into buying two train tickets on her phone: his and Zhou Haiyan's. Their destinations were Yunnan.

That night, the couple boarded a train to Yunnan. When they reached the border, they smuggled themselves into Myanmar.

Of course, Sheng Jiang went along, and when it came time to hand over the people, she brought back quite a bit of money: 20 yuan for one person and 40 yuan for two people.

Hehe, this amount of money is enough for college. Most importantly, I'm the only one registered in the household registration book, so I can live with whoever I want. And no one can frame the old man for child trafficking.

The next day, Zhou Haiyang and his wife from the neighboring village came over, but couldn't find Zhou Haiyan, so they ran to the school to ask for Sheng Jiang.

Ginger was aggrieved. "How should I know where they went? Aren't they often not at home?"

"You don't know? Weren't they at home last night?"

“I fell asleep at night.”

After a pause, Ginger said, "Or call the police!"

In any case, no case will be filed within 24 hours.

On the third day, Uncle Hat checked the surveillance footage and found that the couple had bought their own train tickets and went to Yunnan.

Zhou Haiyang was anxious. "Impossible! My sister and her husband don't have any acquaintances or relatives in Yunnan. Why would they go there for no reason?"

"Maybe to go play?"

“But I can’t even reach them by phone.”

"Then I don't know. Maybe the signal is bad."

Zhou Haiyang saw the expressionless Jiang and asked, "Tell me, what did you do to them?"

"What can I do? I'm only 10 years old!" Jiang said indifferently, "Mr. Zhou, Mrs. Zhou, I have to go back to school, please don't disturb me while I'm studying."

"What did you call us? Is that how you call your biological parents?"

"Huh? Did I remember it wrong? The parents listed on my household registration have disappeared. What kind of parents are you?"

Sheng Jiang sneered, "Back then, you gave birth to me to treat your precious son. Then you found out that my bone marrow couldn't cure his illness, so you abandoned me without hesitation."

Later, just because of a casual remark by Zhou Changping, you sent me to be a child in someone else's home.

What's going on now? Are you in need of a free babysitter again?"

"No matter what, you are our child. You are only 10 years old. How can you live on your own?"

Ginger: ??? You're letting me go back, right? I hope you won't regret it.

"Go back? That's fine. But you don't need to change your household registration. I like to have one household registration for each person."

When Sheng Jiang got home, Grandma Zhou saw her and started cursing, "You money-loser! You still remember to go home and look for a place to stay? You don't live in your own home, but go to live with an old man who picks up garbage. You stink so much! It stinks!"

"Really? I think it stinks too," Sheng Jiang stuck his butt out and farted towards Old Lady Zhou. A series of farts came out, and suddenly the whole room was filled with the smell of farts.

"You stupid girl, I think you deserve a beating!"

"Hit me, and I'll hit you!"

Ginger was only 10 years old, thin and small, but very flexible. The fat old woman couldn't catch him no matter how hard she tried, and she kept cursing at him.

"Swear again! If you keep swearing, I'll put bird shit in my mouth!"

It just so happened that Ginger had already run into the yard, and the old woman also chased her into the yard. The bird in the tree took the opportunity to poop a lot, and as luck would have it, it fell into the old woman's mouth.

"Pfft!" The old woman was so nauseous that she kept vomiting. She drank some cold water to rinse her mouth and brush her teeth, but ended up brushing her teeth out. She couldn't speak without leaking air.

The other members of the Zhou family were stunned.

"You stupid girl, what did you do to your grandma?" Yu Meixiang came forward to pinch the ginger.

As a result, Sheng Jiang dodged, stretched out her legs and tripped, and she fell flat on her face. He looked at Sheng Jiang with a fierce look.

Zhou Haiyang brought a hoe over, and Sheng Jiang reached out to grab it. Zhou Haiyang also tried to grab it, but Sheng Jiang suddenly let go, and the hoe hit Zhou Haiyang's foot, directly cutting it open. He sat on the ground and screamed in pain.

Sheng Jiang's eyes swept over Zhou Changping, who sat in a wheelchair, his eyes dark. But Sheng Jiang didn't attack him. With his delicate skin, even the slightest touch would probably have killed him.

He had lived this long because someone cared for him, indulged him, and nurtured him. Once the rest of the Zhou family died, he would be left to die. Watching his life force slip away bit by bit was the most painful thing for him.

In the evening, Sheng Jiang sat leisurely on the sofa and ate snacks. He took out the chicken legs and roast duck from the refrigerator and ate them until his mouth was full of oil.

Speaking of which, this was the first time Zhou Ruoruo had eaten meat openly since she was a child.

In the past, she had no share of meat, not even rice.

At that time, she was also a disabled person and walked with a limp. Perhaps Zhou Changping felt sympathy for her or felt sorry for her, but he often secretly brought her food in the middle of the night.

Or it can be said that if it weren't for Zhou Changping, Zhou Ruoruo would have starved to death long ago.

So Zhou Ruoruo had complicated feelings towards him. Later, after she started making her own money, she never refused even though she knew her family members asked for money mostly for Zhou Changping.

It was only because the Zhou family's appetite grew that she decided to go abroad.

"You stupid girl, what time is it? Why haven't you cooked yet?" The old woman had just finished cleaning up and saw a table full of garbage. "That's all for Changping to eat. What right do you have to eat it? You're a money-loser!"

"Just eat it, just eat it! I'll piss you off to death!"

Ginger ran to the kitchen. Didn't she want to cook? Okay, I'll do it right away.

I stuffed a lot of firewood into the stove and it lit up all at once. I thought it was too slow to burn, so I stirred it for a long time. Wow, it actually caught the sesame stalks next to it on fire!

The fire suddenly spread and burned the whole house.

"Damn girl, what have you done?"

Zhou Haiyang had difficulty walking and was the last one to run out. His face was blackened by smoke.

"Cooking. Didn't you ask me to do it?"

"Can cooking set the house on fire?"

"That's just how I do it. If you think I can't do it well, just do it yourself. Anyway, I won't do it anymore."

Neighbors came over to help put out the fire, and although it was eventually put out, the house was almost completely burned.

Zhou Changping choked on smoke and was admitted to the hospital again.

The Zhou family was now broke, having spent all their savings on Zhou Changping over the years. Relatives were no longer willing to lend them money, so the family had no choice but to take Zhou Changping home.

As luck would have it, a drunk driver drove by and rammed them. Of the four people, only Zhou Changping survived.

When he woke up, he couldn't stand the huge stimulation and was often nervous.

Ginger didn't care about him and moved in with the old man.

No one cared about Zhou Changping, and he was unable to do anything himself, so he soon starved to death. When his body was found, it was already smelling bad.

This time, according to the household registration and blood relationship, there was truly only one person left. Free and easy. Later, Sheng Jiang went to college and took the old man with him. She cared for him until he was 100 years old.
