A recent post on Chinese social media shared the life story of a woman who faced many hardships, capturing the attention of many readers.

Li Feng, a diligent girl from a rural family, took on the responsibility of caring for her younger siblings while her parents worked. She would cook for the family, help her siblings with homework, and then take care of her own. Despite her modest background, she was highly regarded by the villagers, many of whom were interested in marrying her. Eventually, she married into the Du family, but her in-laws treated her poorly. She had to handle childbirth, work, and raising her child alone while dealing with her irresponsible husband.

Disheartened by her unfulfilled dream of living a comfortable life with a wealthy husband, Li Feng decided to divorce. In rural areas, divorced women often face social stigma, so she moved to the city to start anew. Raising her daughter as a single mother was challenging, but it fueled her determination to succeed. Years later, she started an environmental cleaning business, and her daughter grew up and began working at a foreign company.

However, Li Feng’s business collapsed during the financial crisis, and she fell ill. With her bank account frozen, she turned to her daughter for help. When she arrived at her daughter’s house, her son-in-law mocked her, and her daughter hesitated to speak up. Later, when Li Feng returned home, she found a bank card containing 200,000 from her daughter.

Li Feng realized that despite her daughter’s marriage into a wealthy family, she might have been enduring her own struggles. When her son-in-law learned of Li Feng’s illness, he still went ahead and bought a car, only to be shocked later by the truth.
