A true story about Kangkang’s Granny

(Kangkang’s granny is telling a true story about herself)

I used to be a child laborer. Some other children and I slept in a large room with some cows. When it rained outside, the rain came in. Every morning, I got up at sunrise and went to the fields with the other children. Our job was to grow cotton. We often went hungry because the boss didn’t give us enough food to eat. When we talked to others, he shouted at us. He hit us when he thought we were working slowly. He was very angry when we fell ill and couldn’t work. I had to divide my money into two parts. One part was used to help support my family, the other, to help send my elder brother to school. Life was cruel for us at that time.

Now, children’s lives are much better. Kangkang, you should feel satisfied with your life now.
