This is an autobiography based entirely on real people's personal experiences, and every word is rooted in reality.
In the old concept of favoring boys over girls, girls are regarded as superfluous from birth. I was abandoned by my biological parents as soon as I was born. They abandoned their daughters one after another and adopted a boy with a foreign surname. In my early years, I ignored my bloodline, but after I fell into decline, I took every step of the way. Now that I am safe, they fawn on me in every possible way, just to pave the way for their adopted son.
The year I was recognized by my original family, I met my biological sister who was ten years younger - she was also fostered outside. The two girls, abandoned by fate, grew up together with each other.
Coming from the mud is never the end. I clung to the only way out of school, broke out of the barren countryside, took root in Shanghai, bought a house and settled down, with a successful career and family, and my life became something they had never expected.
I accompanied my sister to break free from the shackles of fate, and she established herself in the big city through her own efforts; my niece, who was indifferent and neglected by her parents, also decisively escaped from her original cage, established her own business, and restarted her life; girls in the same village who were in similar situations also relied on their inner tenacity to break through and grow.
There is no deliberate sadness, no empty shouting, only the most real perseverance and resistance. We supported each other, fought against prejudice with the tenacity of ordinary people, and finally walked out of the mud and lived as our own light.
The idea: to break free from the shackles of native prejudice, the girls redeem each other, grow up against the wind, and live their own light.
