Chapter 2

Chen’s mother was also full of helplessness. It was helpless to say that these three children were triplets.

In order of seniority, they are elder brother Chen Yao, second sister Chen Xi and younger brother Chen Wei.

Although they are the same age, the treatment they have received since childhood is very different.

The two boys were the apple of their parents’ eyes and grew up being loved in the Chen family, a family that extremely favors boys over girls.

As the only girl, Chen Xi not only did not enjoy the special treatment of being an only girl, but was almost given away by her father as soon as she was born.

Because she was a girl, Chen’s father looked down on her.

If Chen’s mother had not begged Chen’s father to keep her daughter, saying that she could be used as a gift to help his son marry a wife when she grew up, she would not have stayed, and she would not have had such an unhappy life later.

Because of this situation, one can imagine what kind of life Chen Xi lived in his early years.

As a result, her body was now so skinny that she looked like a stunted 13-year-old. How could she look like someone on the verge of adulthood? Chen Yao and Chen Wei, who were born with her, were 178cm and 180cm respectively, while she was… hehe, 150cm.

Chen Xi does all the housework at home. As for the fact that she can go to school, it is also because high knowledge can be sold at a good price. Her parents hope to train her so that she can be sold at a good price in the future, so they let her go to school.

More importantly, her older brother and younger brother are both poor students, and she can go to school purely to help them cheat on their homework.

The more Chen Xi recalled, the angrier she became. The memories of her past life and later life, which had been unclear to begin with, now appeared so clearly in her mind.

Sure enough, the brain is more useful when you are young.

“Mom, there has to be someone in the family who goes to the countryside. My eldest brother and I are both sons, and my second sister is a girl. What’s the problem with her going to the countryside for us?” Chen Wei was still begging his mother.

Mother Chen sighed a few times and finally nodded.

“Okay! I’ll go talk to your second sister. At most I can give her some more money so that her life won’t be so difficult after she goes to the countryside.” Although Chen’s mother was not very harsh to Chen Xi, she was not much nicer either.

Her husband is a patriarchal person, and she is a husband-minded person who thinks everything about her husband is good, so it is natural for her to stand on the same side as her husband.

Whenever the family has to make a sacrifice, the one who is sacrificed will inevitably be Chen Xi, the daughter.

After finishing the conversation, Chen’s mother looked up at the bed.

Seeing Shou Gou Gou looking at her daughter, Chen’s mother’s heart skipped a beat. She was not sure how much her daughter had heard.

“You…were you awake just now? Did you hear what Awei said?” Mother Chen asked uncertainly.

“Yes, I heard you asked me to go to the countryside in your place.” Chen Xi said calmly.

In my previous life, I went to the countryside like this, but before going to the countryside, I gave up my job in humiliation and gave all the allowance for going to the countryside to my family. I took the twenty yuan given by Chen’s mother and a quilt weighing less than three pounds to go to the countryside in the south.

Yes, in her previous life she went to the countryside in the south. The only thing to be thankful for was that the weather in the south was good and the winter was not unbearably cold. But it was tiring. She had to plant two crops of rice a year and was so tired every day that she could not even lift her head.

Although money is valuable in this era, what can you do with twenty dollars?

It is so difficult to settle down in a foreign country without any preparation.

“Hehe! Mom knows you are a sensible person. You have to understand me. I can’t help it…” Upon hearing this, Chen’s mother’s eyes instantly turned red and tears welled up in her eyes. She seemed to be struggling.

“Well, if you have no other choice, just sacrifice me for the whole family. I understand.” Chen Xi said calmly.

After he finished speaking, the ward fell into deathly silence.

“Chen Xi, how are you talking to your mother?” Chen Wei was the first one who couldn’t help but asked.

“You have never been willing to call me second sister since I was a child, but you asked me to go to the countryside for you. Chen Wei, you are so arrogant.” She had to go to the countryside, but she didn’t want to compromise again in her life, and she didn’t want to let others have it so easily.

In his previous life, Chen Xi lived to be over sixty years old, and only then did he realize that the person he felt most sorry for in this life was himself.

From childhood to adulthood, she suffered from the preference for boys over girls. When she grew up, she suffered from her husband, and then from her children.

If you were to live your life over again, only a fool would allow himself to continue to suffer.

She has been eating it all her life and has had enough of it. She will never eat it again in this life.

“Chen Xi, as an older sister, why are you arguing with your younger brother?” Mother Chen frowned and said with disapproval when she heard what Chen Xi said.

“I’m not going to bother with him, but with you?” Chen Xi asked with a raised eyebrow.

Chen’s mother and Chen Wei were both dumbfounded. Was this still the same Chen Xi who was silent and only worked hard?

Why do I feel like a different person?

It took a long time for the mother and son to react.

“It seems like you’re okay now. You even have the nerve to talk back to me.” Mother Chen snorted coldly and said, “Then you shouldn’t stay in this hospital anymore. Go home.”

As Chen’s mother said this, she turned around to go and handle the discharge procedures for Chen Xi.

Chen Xi didn’t care, there was no problem at all.

There was nothing wrong with the collision in the previous life. After all, everyone is afraid of death. Her collision was just shocking to look at, but in fact, there was nothing wrong with her.

However, whether to be discharged from the hospital is not up to Chen’s mother.

Thinking of this, Chen Xi lifted the quilt and got out of bed.

“Chen Xi, what are you doing?” Chen Wei couldn’t help but frown when he saw this.

Chen Xi glanced at this useless brother and walked out of the ward door without saying a word.

But when she walked out of the ward door, she bent down instantly and acted weak, then held on to the wall and pretended to stagger as she chased after Chen’s mother, crying as she did so.

“Mom, I don’t want my fiancé anymore, and I don’t want to work anymore. I’m going to the countryside. Please don’t be angry with me, okay? Let me recuperate a little longer! My head really hurts…” Mother Chen heard Chen Xi’s call before she had walked far.

She turned around in surprise and saw Chen Xi with tears in her eyes. She was stunned for a moment. After all, the baby came out of her belly. Seeing Chen Xi like this, Chen’s mother still felt a little bit of pity.

Seeing her mother stop, Chen Xi quickly chased after her, came to her side, and whispered in her ear, “Brother, you want my job? Dream on!”

Mother Chen’s reluctance vanished in an instant after hearing Chen Xi’s words, and she raised her hand towards Chen Xi in anger.

But the moment he raised his hand, Chen Xi fell to the ground with a bang, and then burst into tears.

While crying, she began to complain about the injustice she had suffered since childhood.

The hospital is a place where people come and go, and soon many people were attracted here.

After hearing what Chen Xi said, they all started pointing fingers at Chen’s mother.

In the end, Chen Xi stayed in the hospital as he wished.
