[Face-slapping power fantasy] [Everyone’s favorite] [Real and fake heiresses]
Xiao Li was born in a poor mountain village. Her mother died when she was three.
Her mother died at the start of the year, and her stepmother came into the family at the end of it.
The Li family claimed it was because they “couldn’t let the family line die out.”
Her father didn’t care for her, her mother was gone, her stepmother was cruel, and her grandmother favored boys.
The Ye family had mistaken someone else for their granddaughter.
Ye Shanshan enjoyed a comfortable life in the Ye household.
Meanwhile, Xiao Li had to get up before dawn every day to toil: digging for earthworms, washing clothes and dishes, gathering pigweed, feeding the chickens and pigs, selling eggs...
Whenever her family was in a bad mood, they took it out on her with a beating.
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, her stepmother would roughly shake her awake to care for her dead-drunk father.
No matter how hard life became, she never gave up.
She had promised her mother she would live well.
Zhou Yian appeared, shining into Xiao Li’s life like a ray of light.
“Big Brother, did Mom send you to protect me? Are you a fairy?”
Later, the Ye family would take her back, and the Xu family would find her too.
Seven-year-old Xiao Li wanted to leave Qingshui Village and get beyond Shuangqiao Town.
Eighteen-year-old Xu Zhaoning wanted to keep Zhou Yian by her side forever.
