Chapter 473: It’s unlucky to meet them——Gu Shuyi 1
The February wind was still a little chilly, and a little girl was walking slowly towards home carrying a bucket.
The little girl was wearing a tattered cotton jacket, her fingers were red from the cold, and it was very difficult for her to lift the big bucket in her hand.
Xihe looked at the water in the bucket and poured it directly into the fields by the roadside.
This is Lihua Village, home to about a hundred people, most of whom have the surname Gu.
The original owner was named Gu Shuyi, and she was the second daughter in the family.
Her father, Gu Pingshun, was the town's accountant. Her mother embroidered at home every day, and her sister also followed her mother in doing embroidery needlework.
Her brother was studying in the county academy. A family that could afford to send their child to school must not be poor, and the little girl should not be wearing such tattered clothes.
But for some reason, since the original owner was born, she has not been liked by her parents. As she grew up, she was instructed to do all the housework and was also asked to do the work in the fields.
She was asked to do what she should do, and also to do what she shouldn't do. Although the little girl was young, she was already very good at many farm and housework.
In weather like this, her sister and her mother would embroider on the kang, leaving her to fetch water back and forth in the cold wind.
The little girl was dizzy when she was fetching water because she caught a cold last night. After fetching water a few times, she could not hold on any longer and fell into the well, dying.
"Feng Qi, ask her what her wish is."
"She wants to ask her parents why they don't love her?"
"Tell him that she is not the biological child of this family."
"My lord, what you said is true. I am really not their child. Then who am I?" Soon the little girl's soul came to Xihe.
Xihe looked at the girl in front of him, and a hint of pity flashed in his eyes. Her life was not supposed to be like this. She should have been pampered and loved by her parents. What a pity!
"You are the daughter of a king of a different surname in the capital, and the little princess of their mansion."
"Then why was I born in the countryside?" Gu Shuyi looked at Xihe anxiously, waiting for her to explain.
"When you were born, your mother suffered a difficult labor. Your father, who loved your mother deeply, resented you. He felt that you had caused his beloved to suffer, so he disliked you."
"He looked at his beloved dying on the delivery bed and ordered you to be thrown out, but he thought your mother would be worried when she woke up and couldn't find the child."
"It just so happened that your current mother gave birth to a child, and she swapped your child with theirs."
"I see. No wonder they don't like me. It turns out I'm not their biological child..."
"But my father is so funny. Can I decide the time of my birth? He is going to ruin my life..."
"What is your wish?" Xihe asked again.
"Spread the word about what he has done, and let the world know what kind of person he is."
Xihe knew who she was talking about, so she nodded in agreement.
"Their family tortured me, so let them feel my pain!"
"I don't want my parents' love anymore. My life is so ridiculous..." The little girl laughed miserably and disappeared in front of Xihe.
Xihe knew that she was disheartened, so he went straight to the underworld to prepare for reincarnation.
"Master, is her father ill? Anything can happen during childbirth, so why would he blame a baby?"
"They're sick!" Xihe was telling the truth. She really felt that those who involved their children for their wives were sick.
She only knows that if she really loves someone, she will love everything about her, including the children she gives birth to, and will love her with her life.
As for taking out your anger on others, that is not something a normal person would do.
"Mom, my sister has been gone for so long this time, why hasn't she come back yet?" Gu Shuyu looked up at her mother when she saw the man fetching water was still not back.
"Who cares? She might be out having fun somewhere else." Wu Cuifang answered nonchalantly.
It wasn't her own biological child, so she didn't take it to heart at all.
It was very clear from the prince's intention at the time that he disliked this child and would probably never bring her to the capital again in this lifetime.
Then what psychological burden would I have to bear if I could call her back? I have taken care of her mother for so many years.
Now it's time to let her take care of herself and let you enjoy being a lady.
Thinking of the life in that big house, Wu Cuifang's eyes still flashed with nostalgia. There, they ate, drank, and dressed better than ordinary people.
What a pity, it was because of her that their whole family left the palace.
But it was not a loss. Thinking of her daughter who stayed in the palace, Wu Cuifang showed a loving expression on her face. Her daughter would be successful in the future, and their Gu family would return to that place.
As for this dead girl, she didn't want to think about it anymore. She hoped that she could get married soon so that they would never see her again.
Sometimes when I see her, I think of my biological daughter. They haven't met each other yet.
……
Xihe cast a cleansing spell on herself, and her clothes became spotless. She carried the empty bucket and headed home.
Wu Cuifang happened to be using the restroom. Seeing Xihe coming back with an empty bucket, her face immediately darkened: "You've been gone for so long, where's the water you fetched?"
"No, I poured it out."
"why?"
"I'm just a child, and you ask me to fetch water. Do you think I can lift the bucket out of the well?"
"Didn't you already carry this much?" Wu Cuifang pointed to the water tank in the yard. "If you don't carry more, you won't be able to eat or sleep until this tank is full tonight."
"If I want to blind you, I'll do it myself."
"What did you say?"
"You are deaf. I am talking about wanting me to fetch water and wanting to blind you."
"Are you looking for a fight? Is that how you talk to your mother?"
"Mom, hehe..." Xihe couldn't help laughing, looking at her and said, "You want to be my mother, but you are not worthy and have no qualifications."
Wu Cuifang's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that she already knew her life story?
That's impossible. No one at home has told her about it, and no one has been sent there. How could she know?
"You are not obedient at all. You even dare to talk back to your own mother. Then go fetch water and fill up the jar over there. If you don't, you'll be punished by being made to kneel down!" Thinking of this, Wu Cuifang pointed at Xihe and shouted.
"Bang bang bang-!"
At this moment, several cracking sounds were heard. Wu Cuifang turned around and saw that several large vats in the yard were all broken into pieces, and the water in the vats was flowing out.
Wu Cuifang looked at Xihe angrily: "What are you doing? You damned girl, you dared to smash such a nice jar at home? Is there anyone who would destroy things like you?"
