Chen Yunian was a child who was envied and envied by everyone since he was a child. He was the nightmare of the leading family's children, and also the "other people's child" in the mouths of the leading family's parents.

Since childhood, he is well-behaved and sensible, with high IQ, good grades, and exquisite facial features. He also doesn't like to play crazy with other children in the community. Basically, he can only be seen playing on the basketball court or football field. meeting.Most of the time is either at school or helping my grandfather.

My grandfather is an old Chinese doctor. These days, Chinese medicine always has a derogatory meaning. Many people think that Chinese medicine is just a trick to deceive people, which makes my grandfather very angry.

"Our traditional Chinese medicine is the essence summed up for thousands of years, and it was destroyed by those bastards with black conscience. That money."

My grandfather aspired to be an old Chinese medicine doctor who has fallen into glory, so he has been taking the juniors and grandchildren of the family to learn medical skills.However, my grandfather did not only study Chinese medicine. When he was in his 50s, he went to re-examination for medical school.

This was simply rumored in the local area at the time. After all, at that time, it was not easy for the juniors to go to university. Although the tuition fee for university at that time was not as high as it is now, it was difficult to pass the exam.The acceptance rate is very low.

My grandfather spent two years learning the knowledge of the college entrance examination, and then he passed the entrance examination. People in the neighbors said that it was also thanks to their good genes, otherwise, who would dare to try.

"Live to be old, learn to be old." This is what my grandfather often said.

The juniors in the family respected and obeyed him quite a lot. Almost no one dared to disobey his orders. However, the one who could really inherit his high IQ was Chen Yunian. This was the grandson that his grandfather was most satisfied with. .

So he took Chen Yunian with him since he was a child. Chen Yunian's parents are also busy, a dual-career family, so the children need to be taken care of by the elderly, and his grandfather took care of the job himself.

Perhaps it was a subtle influence, or perhaps he had inherited a powerful gene. Chen Yunian was talented no matter whether he studied Chinese medicine or Western medicine, and his grandfather also gave him a lot of hope.

"Your generation really lived a nourishing and sweet life. There was no war, no famine, and no hunger. But you have never suffered, and you will always stumble in the future. You feel that you are not satisfied with anything now, that is I have never suffered."

His grandfather was very strict with Chen Yunian's education, even so strict that he often took him to the mountains and rural areas to practice medicine.The conditions there are very difficult, and many places do not even have electricity.

At that time, Chen Yunian was only in elementary school. Although his parents didn't have much time to take care of him, they felt guilty and would not treat their children badly materially.So Chen Yunian has everything, the latest game console, the latest snacks, the best brand-name children's clothing, imported schoolbags, he has what his classmates have, and he also has what his classmates don't have.

Even though he may not have much time to play the game console every day, the game console has been quietly put out of date in the bookcase in the end.

At that time, Chen Yunian was young, but he was deeply loved and respected by his teachers and parents, so he naturally developed a bit of arrogance, and there were almost no friends of the same age around him.He doesn't take the initiative to find others, and others dare not casually seek him out.

Such an excellent child always has an aura that no strangers should enter.This made other children dare not approach him easily.

In fact, this is also a kind of loss. How can a childhood without sincere friendship be considered a complete childhood?

Later, during the summer vacation, my grandfather took Chen Yunian into a mountain village. It took half an hour to go up the mountain by car, and another hour to get out of the car.

It was almost evening when we got there.The village is in the mountains, and the receptionist took them to the village chief's house.

Only then did Chen Yunian discover that the family used candles for lighting. The children of the village head's family, only boys could eat food, and the girls could only eat steamed buns with pickles.

This greatly shocked the ten-year-old Chen Yunian. Any game console in his bookcase could satisfy their food money for several months.

Grandpa wanted to bring Chen Yunian with him when he went to the doctor during the day, but the villagers stopped him.

"The weather in the mountains these days is not good. Such a young child is prone to get sick when going out. Besides, he is from the city. It's best not to be too tired."

So my grandfather asked Chen Yunian to stay at the village chief's house. The village chief's second daughter, Axi, was a few years older than him. She had already dropped out of school to work at home, and planned to marry in two years.When Chen Yunian was at the village chief's house, Axi had been taking care of his daily life.

"This fruit is the freshest. I picked it at dawn in the morning. Isn't it delicious? I'll cook eggs for you later."

Ah Xi took care of him as a younger brother. Although the village was simple, he was caring for every detail.She likes to talk, Chen Yunian was used to being quiet, but he gradually got used to Ah Xi's nagging all the time.

Sometimes, Chen Yunian thought, maybe it would be nice to have such an older sister in the family.In fact, it is too quiet, and there will be times when it is very lonely.

During the two months in the countryside, he saw a world he had never been in contact with, and he also knew that the lives of many people were not so easy.They have to go to the mountains to do farm work in the scorching sun.After half a year of hard work, it can only be sold for a few thousand yuan.

Most of the children quit primary school and help out with farm work at home, and some go out to work after a few years, and they are basically coolies.Many people have been injured all over within a few years.

Girls are basically married at the age of 16, and some are even married far away. After the family receives a large gift, they basically don't care about their daughter's affairs anymore.

Chen Yunian knew all these gossips from chatting with adults.

"Sister Axi will marry someone else and never go home again?" This was a topic about the mountain village that Chen Yunian took the initiative to discuss with his grandfather.

The grandfather sighed, patted his head and said, "It's still too backward here. Girls will work very hard, as will boys. Not everyone can enjoy your life. They don't even have enough to eat every day. "

"Then can I give my pocket money to Sister Axi? Then their family doesn't need a bride price. She can stay at home forever. Or let Sister Axi live in our house?"

"Xiao Nian, if you just want to help Axi alone, then there is no problem. But you have to understand a truth, the power of one person is too weak. It is not only this village that suffers in the world, there are thousands of others. One sufferer. Helping one may not help all.”

When Chen Yunian understood this truth later, he was already in junior high school.

That year, he went to that village with his grandfather again, and happened to meet Axi who was returning to his natal family.

But he could hardly recognize the weather-stained woman in front of him as the beautiful sister Axi back then.Although Ah Xi was thin and weak back then, his skin was succulent, his charm was flying, and his speech was very clear, just like an oriole.

However, now this woman who was carrying a child on her back and lighting a fire on the stove was full of exhaustion, her eyes were not as clear as before, her brows were full of sorrow, her white and tender hands were withered, and there were even scars on her arms.

When she saw Chen Yunian, she was in a daze for a moment, then laughed again.

"It turned out to be Yu Nian's younger brother. In a blink of an eye, he has grown so big. He was only as tall as the dining table at that time, and now he is almost taller than me."

She stood up, then turned around and buttoned her clothes in embarrassment. The baby often had to take off and change, and the child's saliva and footprints were all over her body.

"My sister will pour you tea and water. You go out and have a sit. On such a hot day, I'll get you some ice water to drink."

Looking at Axi's busy figure, Chen Yunian didn't know what it was like.

During dinner at night, at the dinner table, the village chief was complaining about Axi with the villagers.

"I went back to my mother's house again this year. I'm really ignorant. I was beaten twice. I think it's because the child's mother loves her too much."

"You can't say that, Axi is such a good child, why did he marry such a person. He doesn't do anything all day, except drinking and beating his wife. It's too shameful."

"Stop talking. Keep your voice down, you don't know. At that time, the village chief received a gift money of 10 yuan, and the man's family had a house and a storefront. Several people had this condition."

"So what, Ah Xi has had a good life for a few days? He has been to the hospital several times, right? Didn't he get a broken bone last year?"

Chen Yunian couldn't sleep at night, his mind was full of words from those people.

He thought of the female classmates in school, who wore beautiful skirts, and would act coquettishly with their parents to ask for pocket money. After class, they were either discussing star chasing or going to Disney or going to the movies during the holidays.From elementary school to junior high school, their skin will only become fairer and fairer, and they have never been troubled by being beaten.

Chen Yunian couldn't sleep and got up, and his grandfather didn't sleep at this time either. He could feel Chen Yunian's movement.

"what happened?"

"Grandfather, why can't sister Axi continue to go to school? I obviously gave her all my pocket money that time."

That year, Chen Yunian wanted to give Axi his pocket money.But the money was left at home, so the grandfather issued him an IOU. The grandfather took out 5000 yuan and gave it to Axi, telling her to continue to go to school.

After returning home, Chen Yunian gave all the pocket money to his grandfather.Of course, during the New Year that year, he received a big red envelope with 1 yuan in it, ten times more than other grandchildren.

"Yu Nian, didn't I tell you that if you want to change a person's fate, you can't just help her alone. I'm not telling you that people are very complicated. She has relatives who influence her, relatives She can still make a lot of decisions for her. It cannot be resolved by her own thinking." Grandpa said quietly in the room.

Of course he could guess what was going on, the money must have been taken by Ah Xi's parents.As for where it is used, it is definitely not used to let Ah Xi go to school.
