Introduction to Chen Xiaomei
Chen Xiaomei's growth trajectory contains more tenacity and warmth than her peers. Her mother sadly passed away before she had time to deeply remember the warmth of her mother's arms. From then on, her closest support in the world was her father who was taciturn but always hid her care in the details, and her grandmother who weaved love with wrinkles and warnings.
The weight of life fell on this family early - her father became disabled due to an accident, and most of the family's livelihood and daily chores depended on her grandma. The younger sister learned to share the burden as early as she could remember: when she came home from school, she helped her grandma choose vegetables, handed her father water for massage, followed her grandma to the market on weekends to look out for cheap seasonal dishes, and quietly stuffed the saved pocket money into grandma's apron pocket.
In the eyes of others, she is a girl who doesn't talk much but is extremely sensible. There are no complaints in her eyes, only concern for her family and seriousness about life. Those days of supporting each other in difficult situations taught her early on about responsibility and cherishment, and also allowed her to grow up with a tenacity that never gave in to difficulties.
