Lured by the bustling excitent of the city, disdainful of the backwardness at ho, she even grew to disdain her mother, who was unwilling to leave her native land.
"Later, when the business suffered losses, my aunt made a fuss about divorcing my uncle, and my grandma took out her last bit of savings," tears stread down Gu Wenjuan’s cheeks, "Eventually, when my grandma was seriously ill, she asked soone to find my dad because she knew my uncle would definitely be unable to take care of ."
She pinched the skirt on her lap and said, "But until my grandma passed away, we never found my dad. At that ti, I was still in high school. Because my grandma was seriously ill, I didn’t perform well during my final year, so..."
I couldn’t even get into a good university.
Yet at ho, grandma was already gone.
My uncle couldn’t possibly give money to retake the year.
Just having Gu Wenjuan eat and drink at his house every day was already making my uncle extrely dissatisfied.
My aunt always told to find a job instead of continuing school, after all, for a girl, no matter how much education she gets or how high her qualifications, she’s still just a girl.
So, neither my uncle nor my aunt were willing to support my education, and Gu Wenjuan had no choice but to go out and work, planning to be a working student, save up so money, and retake a year.
She knew what it ant to be uneducated, and she had seen plenty of girls who hadn’t been to school, who either let themselves go or ended up in dire circumstances.
Her goal was simple, to get into a good university, beco an elite of society, and live a good life.
Even though mom had passed away, and grandma had passed away, she wanted to live her life brilliantly on her own.
Unfortunately, stumbling along, such an ideal still seed sowhat out of reach for her.
Having graduated high school without any particular skills, she simply couldn’t achieve her ideal of sitting in an office, being a white-collar or a social elite.
She could only beco an apprentice or look for work at factories, hotels, teahouses, and other places that didn’t require qualifications.
Fortunately, her appearance was decent, she was willing to work hard, and she managed to save up a bit of money.
Later on, she found her dad.
That was Gu ZhenGuo.
She thought her days of suffering were coming to an end, her life was redeed!
But still, they were not.
Moving to a new place, returning to the Gu Family, she didn’t even have the right to marry the person she loved.
She hated...
Hearing Gu Wenjuan’s story, Grandpa Zhuang’s heart was breaking, he said, "How could this happen, ah..."
"Grandpa Zhuang, do you think Gu Wenjuan could really be soone from your family?" Sha Sha asked, "I think she looks a lot like the painting you have hanging in your living room, and you said her mom’s surna is Zhou too."
Grandpa Zhuang felt complicated emotions, nodded, and said, "Yes, back then, my parents didn’t approve of my sister marrying a poor boy. That poor boy had neither money nor background, and his ambition was just talk. It wasn’t just my parents who disapproved, even I looked down on that boy. But my sister was foolish, unable to go against our parents, she simply left a letter of severance overnight, packed up, and ran away. Back then, it wasn’t like now, with identity registration everywhere and surveillance. Nothing. Once she left, my parents cried their eyes out."
The foolishness of children can only hurt the parents.
Mo Shu could imagine how utterly despairing their feelings were at the ti.
