Chapter 1 The broom star?

“Our old Zhang family is so unlucky to have raised a loser like you! If I had known, I would have drowned you in a urine bucket!”

"I have worked so hard to feed you and clothe you, so good for you. My son lost his hand and missed the exam because of you, otherwise he would have been admitted as a scholar, and now you have caused your brother to fall into the water!"

"You evil-hearted thing, you just want to kill the whole family! If I were you, I would have killed you in a head-on collision. How can I still have the honor to live!"

Guang'an County, Qingshui Village.

Mrs. Cai, the head of the Zhang family, stood in the yard with a sick four-year-old boy in her arms early in the morning and cursed at the woodshed.

And the person she insulted was not a sinister villain, but just a five-year-old girl named Niuniu.

At this time, the little girl was lying on a pile of hay in the woodshed with her whole body burning hot and her face flushed. She closed her eyes and had no idea what was going on.

A group of villagers gathered outside the gate of Zhang's house to watch the excitement, chattering and pointing at the old Zhang's family.

"I heard from Niu Niu's mother that this child is evil. Niu Niu was slapped by her father the year before last, and her father broke his hand the next day and missed the scholar exam. Her family Jin Bao grabbed Niu Niu and turned to Jin Bao. I had a rash all over my face, it was so painful and itchy that I was crying all the time.”

"Her mother said that Niu Niu was the one who caused Jinbao to fall into the water this time. That place is usually very safe, but the rocks collapsed as soon as Jinbao stepped on it."

"Is it really so evil? But think about it carefully. I used to wash clothes there every day where Jinbao fell into the water. It was usually very stable. Why did it collapse when Jinbao stepped on it?"

"The Zhang family made a special trip to send Jinbao to the town hospital for treatment yesterday. They didn't care about Niuniu who had a high fever. They just wanted Niuniu to be burned to death. Granny Cai said that this would help get rid of Sangmenxing."

Aunt Liu, who had always been at odds with Mrs. Cai, sneered when she heard this: "Listen to the Zhang family's nonsense. If Niu Niu was really the star of the family, the Zhang family would not have the good life they have now."

"In the early years, Zhang Laosan was preoccupied with the imperial examinations. He sold out all the land in his family and failed to succeed in the examinations. The couple had been married for five years and still had no son or daughter."

"Since bringing Niu Niu back home, Zhang Laosan picked up a ginseng on the mountain, and then he had the money to build a house, and he was admitted as a child student. His wife also got pregnant and gave birth to a big fat boy. In my opinion, this is The child is destined to be blessed and will prosper the Zhang family!”

We all live in the same village. Looking back carefully, it seems that the Zhang family suddenly got better when Niu Niu came to the Zhang family and before Jinbao was born.

They couldn't help but think that according to this statement, the Zhang family's long-awaited grandson Jinbao was more like a mourning star than Niu Niu. It was only after Jinbao was born that all these messy things happened in the Zhang family...

Some people were even moved on the spot and said: "If Niu Niu is really blessed, wouldn't it mean that whoever raises her will be able to prosper, then I..."

But she was interrupted by Aunt Gu on the spot: "Come on, people are going to die. If you say this, take it back and call a doctor?"

The man shook his head quickly and said, "Doctor please? My family has no money, forget it!"

Aunt Gu said proudly: "Yes, if the doctor's money is spent, the person is still alive, isn't it unlucky? If you are really lucky, you won't die now. In my opinion, is Niuniu's mother right? Wrong, Niuniu is a dead star!"

Just at this time, Zhang Yuniang squeezed in from the crowd. She received the news that her niece Niuniu had fallen into the water and had a high fever, so she rushed over with two eggs.

After entering the house, Mrs. Cai stopped cursing, but her little nephew Jinbao was acting sickly.

"Why don't you let Niuniu get up? I want her to get up and bark like a dog! She's not allowed to lie down and pretend to be dead!"

Mrs. Cai hurriedly coaxed: "Jinbao, be good, Niuniu is about to die. You are sick now. Don't touch her. What a bad luck! Grandma, can you imitate a dog's bark, woof woof woof?"

Jinbao was not happy and said: "I don't want you, an old woman, it's so ugly! I want Niuniu! Mom said that from now on Niuniu will be my wife, and she wants to sleep in the same bed with me! I'll go find her right now she!"

When Mrs. Cai heard this, she immediately screamed heartily, stopped her sweet grandson, and said: "Grandma's heartbroken grandson, you really can't go to her. You haven't recovered from the body that fell into the water yesterday. Don't touch that bad luck." Damn it! If you really want to marry me, grandma will save up and buy you another one!"

After hearing this, Zhang Yun's mother suddenly became angry. She rushed in with a quick step and said: "Mom, Jinbao is only four years old, why doesn't he understand any rules? Even if Niuniu is an adopted child, she is still his sister! We live in the countryside Why do you keep talking about the girl who is married to you!"

Zhang Yuniang has been living under her stepmother since she was twelve years old. Perhaps because things hurt others, she always feels particularly sorry for her daughter Niu Niu, who was adopted by her natal brother.

When Granny Cai heard this, she immediately turned her eyebrows coldly and said, "What are you talking about? Your brother will take the imperial examination and become a high official in the future. Your nephew can raise a house full of girls, but you..." Granny Cai originally had something more to say. He wanted to scold her for swearing, but when she saw the few eggs in her unpleasant stepdaughter's hand, she swallowed the curse in the end, performed a face change in front of her, and softened her tone and said: "Yun Niang, you are back to visit Jinbao." Yes, come as soon as you come, why don’t you bring any eggs?”

She said she refused, but Mrs. Cai's hand had already been stretched out to catch the eggs.

Zhang Yunniang's face turned cold, she retracted her hand holding the egg and said, "I want to see Niuniu first."

Mrs. Cai curled her lips and said, "People are going to die. What's there to see? It's not bad luck. Come on, give me the eggs. It's just right. I want to make frangipani for Jinbao."

Zhang Yunniang was particularly insistent on this matter. She held the egg in her hand tightly and refused to give it to her stepmother Mrs. Cai.

Seeing that she couldn't get the two eggs for a long time, Mrs. Cai couldn't pretend anymore. She pointed directly at her nose and scolded: "You are a black-hearted thing. The niece you picked up is more important than your biological nephew. How can I raise it?" You're such a bastard!"

Zhang Yuniang has heard these curses since she was a child. She has long been used to it, and it is as if she has not heard them at this time.

But Jin Bao, who was only four years old, didn't understand the pull between adults at all. He stared at the eggs in Zhang Yunniang's hands with a pair of greedy little eyes, grabbing the corner of Mrs. Cai's clothes and making a fuss: "I want to eat plumeria! Plumeria!" "

Faced with her grandson's fuss, Mrs. Cai not only did not stop her, but instead said in a sinister tone: "Jinbao is good, there's nothing I can do about it. Your aunt doesn't care for you and is reluctant to give you eggs. She only thinks about that short-lived ghost!"

Zhang Yunniang ignored Granny Cai, put the eggs in her arms, and rushed directly to the woodshed where Niu Niu lived.

Granny Cai wanted to stop her, but her precious grandson Jinbao wouldn't let go, rolling on the floor and shouting for eggs.

Mrs. Cai cursed her bad luck in her heart and blamed Zhang Yunniang for being stingy. She brought the eggs back but was reluctant to give them away, which only aroused Jin Bao's greed.

Jin Bao's yelling made people's ears hurt. Mrs. Cai felt the pain for her hard-won grandson to the core. She had no choice but to say: "Okay, okay, grandma will make you some frangipani right now, just eat one to satisfy your craving." , the eggs at home still cost money.”

Mrs. Cai carried her grandson into the kitchen, took an egg out of the cabinet, knocked it into a bowl, and sprinkled some salt with her eyes. Then she picked up the water that had just been boiled and poured it on. Jin Bao's eyes were dripping with tears. He turned around, looked at the cabinet, and then at the kettle on the stove.

As soon as Mrs. Cai prepared a bowl of simple version of plumeria, Jinbao pounced on it like a hungry tiger.

At this time, in the woodshed, there was a bed made of rags in a dark corner. Five-year-old Niu Niu was lying on it, her cheeks red from the heat. She heard someone coming in. She opened her eyelids with all her strength and saw a familiar figure. , the little girl shouted vaguely: "Big...big...aunt..."

When Zhang Yuniang saw this situation, she could no longer hold back her tears and flowed out.

"Niuniu, are you uncomfortable? My aunt will take you to see the doctor, please bear with it." Zhang Yunniang said, picking her up and walking out.

After finishing making plumeria, Mrs. Cai hurried to the woodshed without noticing Jinbao eating plumeria behind her. When her grandma wasn't paying attention, she took out another egg from the cupboard. Her eyes fell on the boiling kettle beside her, waiting for her. I'll make another bowl after a while.

"Where are you taking this person?" Granny Cai asked sharply.

Zhang Yunniang said without looking back: "You are reluctant to hire a doctor for your child, I will hire one for her!"

Mrs. Cai was so anxious that she jumped up and said, "An unlucky loser deserves to die. Why should he see a doctor? I won't allow it!"

Zhang Yunniang ignored her, hugged him and walked out.

Mrs. Cai behind her was chasing so fast that she accidentally tripped when she crossed the threshold. She fell headlong to the ground and hit her head on the ground. She let out a shrill scream in pain.

Before the blood stains on her face were wiped clean, she heard the sharp cry of a child coming from the kitchen.

Jin Bao, who was eating secretly, accidentally knocked over the scalding kettle that was burning on the stove. The hot water spilled all over his body. He rolled on the ground in pain: "It's hot! It hurts!"
