I thought my happiness would continue just like this forever, and I believed I had long beco the true Little Princess of the Gu Family.
But when one day I inadvertently stumbled into my grandfather’s study, I realized that all my beliefs were naively frightening.
I am Gu En, yet in the Gu Family, there are still people who can’t forget Gu Zhilan. I have worked so hard in this family for so long, but still can’t completely replace Gu Zhilan! Taking advantage of the ti when no one was at ho, I carefully searched the entire Gu Family and gradually unearthed things belonging to Gu Zhilan that were hidden ticulously in many corners!
In that mont, I wanted nothing more than to set all of Gu Zhilan’s belongings on fire. At that ti, I asked myself, no matter how well I do, will I never be able to match that chubby little fool, Gu Zhilan?
Why is it that even though Gu Zhilan has been away from this ho for so many years, these people are still rembering her?
How long will they rember Gu Zhilan? Three years? Five years? Or a lifeti? Then what am I in this ho?
This question, like a seed, was quietly planted in my heart, gradually germinating, consuming all my reason. Ti and again, I walked to the room with Gu Zhilan’s things with a matchstick, but each ti I shrank back at the last mont.
Yes, I don’t dare.
I’m afraid that once I destroy Gu Zhilan’s things, I will also destroy everything I have now. But I hate Gu Zhilan, hate that she has left but still occupies the love that belongs to .
This hatred was slowly let go of later because I gradually figured it out—Gu Zhilan can’t co back anymore, she can never return to the Gu Family, so why should I care about that little bit of her stuff? Aren’t Dad, Mom, Grandpa, and Grandma all mine, Gu En’s?
I enjoy all the care and attention from everyone around . I feel like a radiant entity, becoming the most cherished Baobei of this family. This is an experience I’ve never had before, and I love this feeling of being noticed and loved.
In this ho, there is no sound of scolding or crying. In the morning, we greet each other with a good morning, and at night, we say goodnight. We care for each other’s happiness and health each day.
The things the Gu Family has given are things I have never seen in that wretched and unsightly ho.
When I lie on the warm big bed, sotis I feel a strong urge to go back to that ho to see if they who sold have fulfilled their wish of having a son, and to see if the three sisters who threw out to beco a little beggar are living the poor and low life I imagined.
Later, I really did just that. I sneaked behind my family’s back, gave my old father a sum of money, and got the location of the small village where Zhaodi lived.
That sumr holiday, under the pretense of traveling, I went back to that small village alone. So many years had passed; while the city outside was rapidly prospering, this small village remained as poor as always. I found that dilapidated house based on mory, and seeing it even more rundown than I rembered suddenly made very happy.
Nothing could make happier than this. The people I resented are suffering endlessly just as I cursed they would.
