How far can poverty degrade a person?

My brother once talked about a girlfriend, because our family was poor, and then we separated. At that time, they had been in love for three years, and my brother begged his ex-girlfriend to trust him for one year after they separated, and he would let her live a good life.

Our family is in a poor county, a poor town, and with many children at home, our family is even poorer. That was about ten years ago. Our family had a hard time at that time. At that time, only my brothers and sisters went out to work to make money to supplement their families. One year, my brother said he would take his girlfriend home to have a look.

We waited for them with great expectation, and finally they came back on the 28th of the twelfth lunar month. It was snowing heavily at that time, and the roads in the country were not easy to walk. Father walked to the town to pick them up and help them come back with their suitcases. When I came back, my brother's ex-girlfriend was very pale, so to speak, her face was black, and then my mother was at a loss. It was really hard at that time. She was like that during the Chinese New Year. Our family was very quiet that year.

After the Lunar New Year's Day, she said she would go back to her parents' home, and then she left. My brother sent her there. When she arrived in their city, she asked my brother to come back. Then she broke up with my brother when she returned to work, saying that she didn't want to live a hard life with my brother. My brother knelt down and begged her to give him a chance. He will make everything better, but she doesn't want to.

My brother asked her for a year, and finally my parents couldn't stand it anymore, so they left this city and went to my sister's city. Finally, he withdrew his mind and worked hard. Now he is married, with two children, his own house and car. That's it. He can make a big man kneel.
