Her mother-in-law was not getting along well with her. Her disabled husband had became more and more testy due to depression. The communications between them was getting less and less. She had to start her routine of field work, feeding pigs, carrying water and picking up wood when it was still dark in the morning. In that touch living environment, taking care of child, disabled husband, and aging in-laws, had taken tolls on her health. Quite often, in the lo<em><\/em>nely mountain, the poor lo<em><\/em>nely girl would cry out loud:&rdquo;Mom &mdash; Dad &mdash; I miss you!&rdquo; However, the o<em><\/em>nly thing that answered her was the long echoes.<\/p>\n<p>  After many failed tries, she finally managed to get in tough with her parents and asked them to forgive her stubbornness many years ago.<\/p>\n<p>  Her Mom wrote back in tears and told her daughter that her father had died in a car accident. She herself was not in good health condition, couldn&rsquo;t make it to the mountain area to visit her daughter. They already forgave her and o<em><\/em>nly wished the best for her. The letter took another three mo<em><\/em>nths to finally reached her.
