今天終于把拖拖拉拉看了這么久的中國灰姑娘看完了，由于沒有連續(xù)性的看，沒有享受到那種一氣呵成的感覺，好在故事happy ending.原來灰姑娘最早的版本竟然在中國的漢代，哈哈，太不可思議啦！其實這個故事屬于作者嚴(yán)君玲的自傳，一出生母親就死了，在家排行老五，叫做五妹，從小就不被家人待見，被父親遺忘，繼母虐待，哥哥姐姐欺負，只有靠努力讀書來獲取父親的一點點關(guān)注。五妹童年很波折，可憐，只有爺爺和姑姑對于她寄予厚望，在她絕望無助無辜可憐的時候鼓勵她，爺爺和姑姑也是唯一她在這個世界上的慰藉。

“Don’t talk like that!” Ye Ye interrupted. “You mustn’t talk like that! You have your whole life ahead of you.? Everything is possible! I’ve tried to tell you? over and over that far from being garbage,? you are precious and special. Being top of? your class merely confirms this. But you can vanquish the demons only when you yourself are convinced of your own worth.

“The world is changing. You must rely on yourself and not end up married off like Big Sister. I have faith in you. Go? out there and compete in the most? difficult examinations. Create your? own destiny! Your Ye Ye is an old man now and his days are numbered. Who knows how long we have to talk like? this? But no matter what happens,? always remember that my hopes are with you. Trust me! Continue to work? hard! One day you’ll show the world? what you are really made of.”

他的爺爺是一個充滿智慧的人，這是他們之間最后的對話，鼓勵她努力堅強自信的活下去。
