Sold as a child bride at the age of five, she killed her child with a pole just to avoid being a slave to fate.
In the 18th year of the Republic of China, there was a severe drought in Shaanxi.
Five-year-old Lei Manping was sold to the Ke family as a child bride by her mother in exchange for three buckets of grain.
Her mother-in-law's scolding was like a knife, cutting into her bones one by one. My sister-in-law has a mean mouth, but underneath her meanness is a soft heart. The old grandmother's hands were warm, but the warmth could not overcome the coldness in the courtyard. And the uncle, that skinny man who smoked heavily, looked at her like a wolf looking at a sheep that fell into a trap.
When she was twelve years old, her uncle dragged her into the jujube forest.
A salesman rescued her with a carrying pole. That was the most beautiful face she had ever seen in her life. His name is Zhou Qin.
Stolen love has a child. In the ancestral hall, the elders said: "We will see who he looks like when he is born."
That evening, she picked up the bucket and walked to the well platform. When he came back, he used the shiny pole to pound his stomach hard.
The blood flowed into the loess and the child was gone. Zhou Qin married the restaurant owner's spicy daughter.
Later, the Ke family was defeated. She was sold to the warlord Lu Liangchen. This man who killed without batting an eyelid turned red in the face of her bowl of oily noodles.
Later, Lu Liangchen died. After liberation, the husband who had been in the army for many years came back and said that he would fulfill his engagement.
But the spring feeling in her heart has been buried in the loess on the plateau for a lifetime.
