About This Novel
For as long as I can remember, my mother has always said, "Boys should be raised poor, girls should be raised rich." She would go to a shopping mall counter to buy clothes and jewelry worth thousands of dollars for my sister, and she would give me old clothes worn by a relative's brother. When I was in college, my sister's living expenses were 3,000, and mine was 300. I begged her to give me more living expenses. She said, "Don't you have long hands? Don't you go out to make money on your own? You are already eighteen, and I have no legal obligation to be responsible for your life. If I give you three hundred yuan, not only will you be ungrateful, but you will also compare yourself with your sister. Boys must adapt to society early, otherwise how can they give their other half a stable home? "This is all to train you." "Then why can my sister have such a high living expenses?" She said casually, "How can you compare with your sister? Girls should be richer so that they won't be deceived by bad men." Later, I worked part-time day and night to make a living, and I got pancreatic cancer because of the pressure of life. I wonder if she regrets it. She regretted it in the end, because the daughter who was raised in a wealthy family would only ask for whatever she wanted and squandered money. The son who was raised in poverty was bent by life and fell into what she thought was the right path.
