In my dream, I was terrified, terrified that mom would sell me off too.
If a girl enters the brothel, her life is ruined. Not only could she not find a good husband, but she also can't have children afterward.
Those words were said by my cousin. In her disdainful gaze, it was as if my eldest sister and I were brothel girls.
I was very angry and unconsciously held a grudge against Yingbao while hating my aunt's daughters even more.
Later, my family bought a small courtyard in the county town where our family of five lived.
Life in the county town was not easy. My eldest sister and I assumed all the household chores. More than once I wished my third sister was here to help, especially with the laundry during the winter.
My eldest sister didn't say much, but she didn't object either.
Later, my eldest sister got married and wed a fisherman.
