“Why does my stomach hurt?”

“Daddy, my stomach hurts…” Tang Yuxin was reminded again of her pathetic fate in her past life. The healthy young farmer in front of her was now nothing but a thin old man, which made her feel unwell and made her eyes tear up uncontrollably.

“It’s okay, it’s okay, don’t be afraid,” Tang Zhinian quickly hugged her daughter, “Daddy will take you to the doctor. After seeing the doctor, the pain will disappear.” Now, he genuinely thanked their fortune of living in the city. What would they do if this were a severe illness?

Stomach pain is not a minor issue. He hurriedly took his daughter to the only hospital they have here, a place they both know. Wei Jiani was also staying in this hospital.

Tang Zhinian carried his daughter into the hospital, got registered, and busied himself attending to her. Tang Yuxin’s small hand was tightly clutching the corner of her father’s clothing, while her large eyes brimmed with curiosity towards her surroundings. She had come to this hospital in the past to see Wei Jiani. Of course, it was Sang Zhilan who brought her, and she was told to perform somersaults to entertain Wei Jiani.

Back then, she was only three and understood nothing. When Wei Jiani asked her to do a somersault, she did it; when she was coached to growl like a fierce dog, she mimicked it; when Wei Jiani wanted to ride on her back like a horse, she resisted. Wei Wani even scratched her face.

She cried for her mother, but her mother advised her that Wei Jiani was her younger sister, and she needed to yield to her. So, whenever there were new clothes, they were always worn by her sister first; whenever there was something appetizing to eat, she could only drink the soup. In their studies, whenever her sister performed poorly, she was coaxed to stay back a year with her. Moreover, she had to work and provide for her sister’s college fees rather than attend college herself. If it weren’t for her father who insisted on her going to college and even paid her tuition, there’s no way she could have become a doctor.

She only came to realize all of this later. Otherwise, given the Wei family’s prejudice, how could she possibly have continued studying? They would have certainly made her work and use her earnings to fund her sister’s tuition and living expenses.

Not much has changed; Wei Jiani still gets sick. Tang Yuxin wondered if it was because Wei Jiani fell ill that Sang Zhilan wanted a quick divorce. Moreover, she also demanded Tang Zhinian to produce the alimony, all of which was used for Wei Jiani’s hospital fees. Vaguely, Tang Yuxin remembered that Wei Jiani’s illness during that time was particularly severe.

Back then, Wei Tian and Sang Zhilan were just ordinary workers. They might not have even earned a hundred in a month. Wei Jiani’s hospitalization supposedly cost a lot. While they valued their child, they also valued their money. Hence, they were quick to finalize the divorce with Tang Zhinian. Though Tang Zhinian did not earn much, he could still borrow money. Given his kind nature, most people in the village would lend him money upon request. They were only concerned about borrowing money; as for repayment, that was something that Tang Zhinian had to take care of.

Tang Zhinian, indeed, went all out. He borrowed from everyone in the village and managed to gather five hundred dollars, all of which Sang Zhilan took away. Afterwards, Tang Zhinian spent several years paying off this debt. In addition, when something happened to Tang Zhijun, Tang Zhinian aged significantly as a result and had to take on a laborious life.

One could say that Tang Zhinian’s tragedy started the day Tang Yuxin was taken away.

And Tang Yuxin’s sorrow began the moment she left the Tang family.
