10 Past Life (2/2)
Bai Zhexi had been working at the Wutong County Glass Factory. In the early 1990s, she was laid-off. In order to support her, she had set up a shoe-repair stall on the street.
Wan Chao and Bai Zhexi had quarreled quite a few times for the sake of this shoe repair stall because she felt that it was too embarrassing. In order not to embarrass her daughter, Bai Zhexi moved the shoe repair stall again and again to a very remote place. Earning money was not a problem, but travelling was difficult.
Bai Zhexi's shoe repair stall didn't earn much. She often didn't eat in order to save money for her. In the end, Wan Chao even gave that money to Liu Li and co.
This was why Wan Chao often quarreled and lost her temper with Bai Zhexi.
When she was 18 years old, Bai Zhexi had forever fallen at her shoe repair stall. Everyone said that she died because she worked too hard.
Wan Chao knew that Bai Zhexi was angry, that her daughter had been disobedient, she had been malnourished, and that she had worked too hard. That was why she couldn't hold on and fell down.
”Pa!” Wan Chao felt that she was too shameful and couldn't help but slap herself.
Bai Zhexi was the scar at the bottom of her heart that she could not let go. Every time it reminds her Wan Chao would cut herself once to punish herself. Even though Jiang Ke Chu had scolded and beaten her for this, the wounds on her body were still increasing.
Wan Chao raised her head and looked up at the sky. It was already afternoon, so Bai Zhexi should still be setting up her stall in the south side of the city.
Not bad! Bai Zhexi was still here!
Thank you, my God, thank you for letting me come back.
This time she was going to pay back everything she owed to Bai Zhexi and ask her to put her stall back in the market near their home. No, she was going to find a way to make money and make Bai Zhexi happy; she was going to study hard and make Bai Zhexi proud and not disappointed again.
It might be difficult for her to try to make Bai Zhexi feel happy with a caring daughter; and there was that An Lian, and if Bai Zhexi really wanted to, she wouldn't stop them.
It was as if she had found the meaning to start over. Wan Chao's heart suddenly cleared up, and she felt as if the clouds were blue and the water was green.
This time, she was going to let her sixteen years of age bloom like a flower.
She increased her speed and applied half a bottle of the medicinal wine onto her body. Not to mention that the old gramps medicinal wine really works, the pain in her body lessened by a lot.
After tidying up her messy hair and her muddy clothes, Wan Chao raised her head and left the mountain. She decided to fetch Bai Zhexi and pack up her stall.
After Wan Chao left, a twenty-five-year-old young man walked out from behind the big rock. When the young man saw that Wan Chao, who was growing smaller and smaller at the foot of the mountain, he chuckled and said something.
”She really is a fool!”
Two hours ago, he had been sunning himself on the mountain when he suddenly heard footsteps.
He looked up and saw that it was a young girl, who seemed to be in a very sorry state, so in order to avoid embarrassment and trouble, he hid behind a big rock, only to see that the young girl had actually arrived beside the big rock, sat down, and started to stare blankly.
In a moment, she would call him herself an idiot, stupid or something like that.
However, this girl stayed here for two hours before she left the mountain. He had also been hiding for two hours, and his legs had gone numb.
