Zhang Xiaofen was born in an ordinary rural family in Zhangjia Village, the third eldest in the family. There are two older sisters above, a younger sister and a younger brother below.

Zhang Xiaofen's original name was Zhang Zhaodi, but she changed her name to Zhang Xiaofen. Because the family has many children and the state implements family planning, Zhang Xiaofen's family has to pay a lot of extra-birth expenses, so the poor ding dong, even the fourth sister was sent away by her parents. The family members, including grandparents, grandparents, parents, and the second sister, all tend to prefer patriarchal children. Zhang Xiaofen is in the middle of the platoon between brothers and sisters. She is neither the eldest daughter of the eldest sister, Zhang Guihua, nor the second sister Zhang Laidi. The introverted Zhang Xiaofen has never loved her mother or father since she was a child. Wake up first in the morning, sleep last at night, work the most, and eat the least. All the good things in the family belong to the younger brother. Except for the eldest sister, the others can only use what others have left.

When Zhang Xiaofen was a child, due to malnutrition, she was thin and small, with sallow skin, dry hair, and her clothes were full of patches. She was always bullied by other bear children in the village.

One day, when Zhang Xiaofen came home from school, she was blocked by three senior children and threatened to beat her, just because she was not pleasing to the eye. Zhang Xiaofen looked at other passing classmates for help. Some people hurriedly avoided them, while others gathered around not far away to cheer on the three senior children. Deep despair and helplessness surrounded her, she could only hold her head in her hands, curled up on the ground and let others beat her. In the confusion, Zhang Xiaofen only felt that the head was kicked by someone's foot, and hit a small stone heavily, and bursts of pain mixed with dizziness came.

"Hey! What are you doing?!" Before her consciousness fell into the darkness, Zhang Xiaofen saw the appearance of the only one who helped her out. It was him...

Afterwards, Zhang Xiaofen miraculously discovered that she had a mysterious space. At first, she panicked. After gradually accepting the existence of space, Zhang Xiaofen discovered that there are many benefits of space. The space is very large, with mountains, water, fields and a small bamboo building. The growth rate of things grown in it is ten times that of the outside world, and the nutritional value is higher and the taste is more delicious. Zhang Xiaofen relied on stealing a few seeds from the house from time to time, and took some plants from the wild, so that the species in the space were gradually enriched.

Although she got space, for Zhang Xiaofen, studying hard and going to university in the future is the fundamental way to change her life. As long as she is admitted to university, she can get rid of the current predicament, and her parents will treat her differently, but the reality has given her a heavy blow.

After the high school entrance examination that day, Zhang Xiaofen went to the school to collect the transcript, and was told by the teacher that she was admitted to the county high school in C county. Zhang Xiaofen was a little dizzy with excitement, and took her admission notice from the teacher with trembling hands. With a big smile on her face, she looked a little silly, and she repeatedly said thank you to the teacher. No wonder Zhang Xiaofen is so excited. You must know that the county high school is the best key high school in C county, and the admission rate is as high as 93%. As long as you go to the county high school, you have stepped into the university gate with one foot, and you are one step closer to your college dream. , how could she not be excited.

Zhang Xiaofen almost floated home, thinking about how her parents would praise her when they found out, and maybe cook her a meal of meat. Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaofen snorted. Except for Zhang Xiaofen's younger brother Zhang Zhijie, who has an egg every week, everyone in the Zhang family has to wait until the Chinese New Year before they can eat halo. Even if Zhang Xiaofen has space, she can't get any animals such as livestock to raise, and secondly, she won't kill them.

He went home happily, and as soon as he arrived at the door of the house, he saw Zhang's mother standing at the door looking around. When he saw her, his eyes lit up, and he walked over quickly and pulled her into the door. Zhang Xiaofen thought that her mother wanted to ask her how she did in the exam. Zhang Kou was about to tell Mother Zhang the good news that she had been admitted to the county high school, but was interrupted by her mother: "Sanmei, there are guests at home, you will be here later. But do well."

Entering the door, I saw a plump middle-aged woman wearing red flowers walking towards her with a smile on her face. Zhang Xiaofen recognized her. She was a famous matchmaker in the village. Her heart sank and she had a bad premonition.

"Yo~! This is the third daughter of your family, she looks really handsome. Don't worry, Sister Zhang, the Niu family promised that as long as your daughter is married and lives peacefully with the big Zhuang, their family will take care of you. Hers, the dowry money is also indispensable to you." The matchmaker Zhang said in a chorus of voices.

"Zhang Shuan's family, you're the matchmaker, what do I have to worry about. I'm a girl, don't say it, just like this, she's famous for being handsome in Shili Baxiang, and it can make the Niu family like her. Her good fortune." Mother Zhang replied with a smile. Because of Zhang Xiaofen's long-term consumption of space products, her skin has become soft and fair, her facial features are more refined, her appearance is graceful, and she has an indescribable temperament due to space, making her whole person more beautiful and refined.

"Mom! I don't agree! I don't want to get married!" Zhang Xiaofen still had a glimmer of hope in her heart, as long as she knew that she was admitted to the county high school, she would never force her to marry. And who doesn't know in this village, that Niu Dazhuang is a fool, she doesn't want to marry a fool, if she wants to marry, she will marry...

"Nonsense! This man should be married, and the woman should be married. That's why you say you won't marry if you don't marry." Zhang Tihu scolded Zhang Xiaofen with a face.

"I don't want to marry that fool! I don't want to get married, I was admitted to..." The county high school, unfortunately, was interrupted by Zhang's father before he finished speaking.

Father Zhang said solemnly: "The orders of parents since ancient times, the words of matchmakers. This is up to you!"

"I! No! Marry!" This was the first time Zhang Xiaofen spoke to her parents so loudly, and it was also the first time she meant to rebel against her parents. She knew why Zhang's mother and Zhang's mother wanted to force her to marry. Isn't it because his younger brother had to pay more sponsorship fees if he couldn't get into junior high school. Zhang's father and mother wanted to buy her for money. Enduring to the limit, Zhang's father and mother's partiality, and the repression they have been subjected to for more than ten years, all erupted this time.

"Snapped!!"

After Mother Zhang slapped Zhang Xiaofen, she said angrily, "If you don't marry, you have to get married, you **** girl! Don't think I don't know what you're doing. I'll tell you now, even if you go to high school, our family will I can't afford you, my dad and I are going to leave your brother's money to go to college, you don't want a penny."

Looking at Mother Zhang in disbelief, her eyes swelled for a while, and she felt both grievance and anger in her heart. Pushing Mother Zhang away violently, she ran back to her room with her eldest sister and second sister, slap! The sound of the door being slammed.

"This..." After watching a farce, the matchmaker Zhang said a little embarrassedly, blaming Zhang Xiaofen for her ignorance of flattery.

"Zhang Shuan's family, I'm really sorry, the third sister is ignorant, and Lao Zhang and I will teach her a good lesson. Just tell the Niu family directly, this matter... We agreed." Mother Zhang said with a pleasing smile.

"Sister Zhang, it's not me who said that. Your third daughter should also take care of it. Okay, I'll go to Niu's house to help you talk, you don't need to send me." After speaking, he turned around and left.

"Hey~ you go slowly." Mother Zhang sent the matchmaker away almost charmingly. He turned his head and changed his expression instantly, took a few steps to Zhang Xiaofen's room, bang! boom! boom! Slam the door hard. "Damn girl! Come out for me! Open the door! Open the door! If you want to slam the door for the old lady, come out if you want!"

Mother Zhang patted the door desperately outside the door, and Zhang Xiaofen sat behind the door with her back against the door. He crossed his knees with his hands, buried his head deep in his legs, and shrugged his shoulders.

The darkness gradually shrouded in, like a giant beast that wants to choose people and devour...

Listening to Zhang's mother apologizing to the matchmaker outside, and sending people away politely; listening to the younger brother coming home from school, the elder sister returning home one after another, and the sound of a family of seven eating outside the door; listening to the eldest sister and the second sister taking pictures The sound of persuading her to open the door and leave after failing to do so. Feeling the passage of time bit by bit, night falls, and the world returns to silence.

The moonlight projected on Zhang Xiaofen through the window, Zhang Xiaofen slowly stretched her body and got up from the ground. He gently opened the door, moved his stiff body, and wanted to go to the kitchen to pour a glass of water, but when he passed the room of Zhang's father and mother, he heard a whispered conversation.

"Old Zhang, Zhaodi refuses to marry the Niu family boy, what should I do? The betrothal gift is 5,000 yuan plus a pig!"

"Since Recruitment is not happy, or else, forget it. At most, I will work harder, find more work, and let Recruitment continue to read. In the future, Recruitment will pay off, and I can also help Zhijie."

"No! You must marry Niu Dazhuang. What's the use of having an extra job? In the future, Xiaojie will not spend money when he wants to go to college or marry a daughter-in-law! Besides, the conditions of Niu's family are good. Human, although Niu Dazhuang is a little stupid, after marrying Niu Dazhuang, she will not worry about food or clothing, how to say that she is also my daughter, I can still harm her."

Father Zhang didn't speak any more, and after a while there was a snoring sound in the house. A gust of cold wind blew, which made Zhang Xiaofen feel cold. After regaining her senses, Zhang Xiaofen returned to the room lightly.

After standing in the room for a while, there was a hint of determination in his eyes, as if he had made a decision. Zhang Xiaofen pulled out a porcelain jar from under the bed, removed the bricks on it, and pulled out a solid object wrapped in a black plastic bag. Carefully untied the plastic bag, revealing a large pile of banknotes, one dime and one yuan in bits and pieces. This is the money she has praised for more than ten years since she was a child, with a total of 273 yuan and 80 cents. Take out the ID card made just a month ago from the school bag, pat! The white envelope that was put together with the ID card was taken out and dropped on the ground. It was her admission letter.

Picked up the notice, watched it quietly for a while, and finally tore the notice to shreds little by little with trembling hands in tears, S! s! s! It was as if her heart was torn apart.

He left the house lightly, took a last look at the place where she was born and raised, turned around, and left without looking back, the figure that was gradually drifting away disappeared into the night, and a long shadow was drawn down...
