A life shattered by family describes the joys and sorrows of an "ordinary" family. "I once swore to live for love and devotion. But now, I just want to escape the prison of my family." Qianxun was tortured by unexplained eczema after birth. Her parents tried medicines recommended by doctors and various folk remedies, but to no avail. The father, who was at a loss what to do, brought back the water given to him by his colleagues - "Venus' Favor" and followed the advice to clean Qianxun's body. Miraculously, Qianxun's crying at night decreased, and her illness was completely cured by the second month. Taking this as an opportunity, Qianxun's parents became obsessed with the "favor of Venus". Even though their uncle kindly persuaded them, their parents refused to listen. Every time they moved, the house became smaller, and her sister, who was five years older than Qianxun, also ran away from home.

I found a woman who didn't fit in. She lives near my house and eats bread every day on a fixed seat on a park bench, occasionally being bullied by the children playing around. She works intermittent odd jobs, wears a purple skirt every day, and is a well-known eccentric. I really want to be friends with her. But one day, after I helped her clean up every mess, she disappeared.
