For the sake of privacy, all names of people and places in this book are not revealed...... Being physically abused by her mother, mentally abused by two female teachers and almost sexually abused by a male teacher, a little girl walked through her childhood with tremendous difficulties...... However instead of holding grudges, she never stopped searching for answers and eventually was able to figure out the right direction leading to her way of happiness...... As she dug into the bottom, she found the source of her pain was someone she once loved, worshiped and swore to protect with her life when she was a little girl. As an offspring of landowners and feudal scholars, a little girl's life was failed again and again by Mao's system; as Deng Xiaoping's reform policy kicked in after Mao die, and as the little girl was transforming into a young lady, she had to struggle a lot harder than others to accomplish her reasonable dream. Because the inequalities of the society Mao created did not go away with him. History unfolds through a true life story. An easy understanding story leads to the deeper concept of Mao's policy. It is a story touching upon prejudice, inequality, shame, naive, emotion, psychology, struggle, hopeless, persistence, awakening and rewarding. This book is informative and can grow one's wisdom. ...... A little girl was facing to be kicked out of school, only because her family's class status was: landowner...
