Chapter 1: To avoid endless cries of injustice and suffering

"Are we even allowed to sleep?" Ling Si complained, "I have class tomorrow, and I am completely exhausted."

"What are you being so temperamental for?" Ling Yi rolled off the bed, rubbed his eyes, held Ling Wu in his arms, squatted at the door, and helped her relieve herself

In an instant, all of Ling Er's grievances came to the surface

The little girl is still crying there

"What are you making a fuss about? Are you out of your mind?" After giving Ling Er a glare, Ling Yi carefully comforted her younger sister, "Little sister, you are the best, don’t cry, okay? Tomorrow, I will buy you a White Rabbit candy."

"If you have the ability, say it again. Do you believe I will really hit you? From now on, I am the boss. You can try not listening to me." Ling Yi's expression turned cold.

I want mom! Ling Wu was shouting for mom at the top of his lungs.

She finally discovered what was amiss

Standing under the moonlight, Ling Er called out this one word, feeling somewhat incredulous

He and his younger siblings have also shown commendable effort, each of them having been admitted to university. With four university students in the family, they are indeed a unique presence within several miles.

Standing in front of him was his biological mother. He remembered the last time they met, which was thirty years later, as he lay on the hospital bed, and his mother pretended to shed a couple of tears.

We cannot rely on you for everything. Ling Er's tears flowed down her face like they were free, falling to the ground.

Resentment and indignation crowded in his chest at this moment, making it difficult for him to breathe

Experiencing this scene once again, Ling Er tried to hold back her tears, but ultimately, the tears still flowed down uncontrollably

"Little one, what are you doing?" The woman pulled Ling Er's hand down, "Listen to your mother, stay at home and follow your sister well. When your mother goes out to earn a lot of money, I will take you over."

I can also go out to work," Ling Er insisted.

Sister is still a girl who has not experienced society yet

Mother, this word feels distant and unfamiliar. The silvery moonlight spreads softly, coating the trees with a layer of silver. Looking at the dim figure ahead, I hurriedly cover my mouth

Ling Yiheng said with resentment, "There are some things I will only say once. The more others look down on you, the more you must live up to being a person. Relying on others is not as good as relying on yourself"

Then, he disdainfully closed his eyes

Little one, you go back, listen to your sister, and take good care of your younger siblings

She also knows that her sister has always regretted not having pursued her studies

He wants to die, but he lacks the ability to do so

His chaotic marriage had just ended, and then he got into a car accident, dragging his sister into the turmoil

There are five siblings, three of whom are currently studying. As for the eldest sister, she did not even complete middle school and has long taken on the responsibility of helping her mother care for her younger siblings

At this moment, it is reminiscent of that scene from thirty years ago, when mother left home and he chased after her

He also vowed not to burden his sister any longer

"You are stronger than humans." He kicked the big yellow dog that was running over excitedly; he was not in the mood to indulge it now

The five siblings are merely a mistake of life

The woman saw Ling Er but did not speak, waved her hand, picked up the suitcase, and left without looking back

Ling Er slapped herself, confirming that she was not dreaming

He was crying in confusion at that time

The moment he closes his eyes and takes a deep breath is when he feels the happiest, finally no longer being a burden to his siblings.

Ling San was startled, hunching his shoulders and muttering, "Alas, being involved with you all is indeed my misfortune. Sleep, sleep.

However, reality is very harsh

But how can a mother not consider her children?

Sister Ling Yicai is only 16 years old; what abilities does she have to take on the heavy responsibilities of the family

Mom

"Say it again!" Ling Yi suddenly raised his voice, his trembling hand lifted.

Ling Yi sternly said, "Do not concern yourself with matters that are not your responsibility; it is far more important for you to improve your own grades than anything else"

"Perhaps I should just stop reading, as my grades are the worst," Ling San could not help but say

What are you trying to achieve? Ling Er said deliberately, blocking his anger, "We should each take care of ourselves; living well on our own is better than anything else."

His mother abandoned the five siblings and ran away

Although Ling Er heard the sound of crying, he could not see a single tear on that beautiful face. He remained so silent, uncertain whether he had truly been reborn.

He is in a vegetative state, unable to speak, and can only watch helplessly as his sister cares for him day and night

That is, that is. Ling San is supporting that.

If you lack the ability to support them, what right do you have to bring so many into the world

However, the only one suffering is my sister; her grades are so good that it would be a pity for her to drop out

After our mother passed away, my sister first worked the land at home for two years. Once he and Ling San and Ling Si were boarding at school, Ling Wu was entrusted to our grandparents for care. A girl went to Pujiang to work, taking on jobs in textile factories and toy factories; my sister has done all the work she could find.

"Dead man, won't you help her with her urination?" The cries of the youngest sister pulled her back to reality, and he directed his anger towards his younger brother Ling San, who was only one year younger than him

"So you think I don't dare to hit you!" Ling Er shouted loudly at Ling Wu.

After Ling Yi placed Ling Wu on the bed, he saw Ling Er still lost in thought and said with a smile, "Hurry up and go to sleep, we have school tomorrow. It's already the second year of junior high, and you still aren't alert at all."

His shout made the woman standing in front shudder, and she eventually turned around

The door is open, and the three adobe houses are no different from most families in the countryside. When it rains, there is not even a place to stand.

Ling Si swept around the room and, in a daze, asked, "Where is Mom?"

"You dare!" Ling Yi and Ling Er said in unison

The Ling family has five siblings, with names that are quite simple, numbered from one to five. Ling Yi is one year older than Ling Er, and Ling Er is only one year older than Ling San. Ling San is two years older than Ling Si, while Ling Wu is the youngest at only two years old and has just learned to walk

He himself does not remember how long it has been since he last called out this title

"Yes, you all should sleep well." Ling Er remembered that her sister had comforted everyone in the same way in her previous life

Sister, I no longer wish to study. For Ling Er, he has already received a higher education, and in her view, whether one studies or not makes little difference anymore

He still remembers the events of his sister's wedding day, when she, who never drinks, got herself completely intoxicated and then secretly spoke with someone.

He owes his sister too much

It is they who have burdened the elder sister, whether in her studies, career, or even her marriage

Upon opening his eyes again, he appeared here

My task is complete, and I have lived up to your expectations

The woman turned around and finally could not hold back her tears

Indeed, his father is disappointing, having placed all the burdens of the household on his mother, who struggles greatly and wishes to escape; he understands this

My sister did not get married until she was thirty-two years old

"I went to work in another city," Ling said with a smile, "to earn tuition for us, otherwise what can we do"
