"My mother finally realized that she was going to lose me and the gap between us. She began to try hard to show her love for me, but I no longer needed it." "We raised you as a son." "Can I give you another brother?" These were the words my mother said most often. The girl grew up without being expected. The once high-spirited father became addicted to gambling, and the mother who expected her son pretended to like the girl more in front of outsiders. The girl's growth process was accompanied by rude abuse and loud slaps. Fortunately, the girl still had a small period of time under the protection of her grandmother. The "birthmark" is not only a natural scar on the face of the third sister who was given away, but also a lingering pain in the girl's heart. It is a childhood shadow left by parents who favor sons over daughters, and a seed of thorns in the original family. However, the girl finally started a new life through her own efforts. She changed "Sai Nan" to "Su Nan" and redeemed herself bit by bit in her writing.
