In fact, everyone's growth is a painful and happy process. Just like the growth of "mother", she also has her pain, because "she" rarely describes it to "me". Although she told "me" lightly on a sunny afternoon, after all, time has passed and things have faded, resulting in "I" not being able to fully understand the pain of "her" era, just as "she" cannot understand the pain of "me" growing up in this era. "Little Xishi" just wanted to wear a pair of jeans with a slit, but was scolded by her mother. She had no right to defend her behavior, and she had no way to win the pair of jeans. Maybe what she asked for was not a pair of jeans, but just the warmth of a "normal family" and a desire for an "undistorted childhood." As for "Mother", she only needs to show a little mercy to satisfy "Little Xi Shi"'s wish, but she has no sense of "compassion", which creates a situation of mutual exclusion and conflict between mother and daughter. It's not a "peeping" issue, even if there is no "peeping" issue to blame, "Little Shih Tzu" still needs those jeans. Fortunately, the word "indifference" does not appear in the novel, because the most hopeless thing is not hatred, but something worse than hatred, called "indifference."
