Chapter 11: Lucky girl

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Things had indeed changed for our Yuan family!!”

Since Old Yuan found the pheasant cave in the mountains, which allowed them to make a small fortune, the villagers realized that things had changed for the Yuan family.

When everyone went up the mountain together, the Yuan family would find some wild vegetables or some aged medicinal herbs.

In less than a month, the Yuan family’s income had probably reached twenty to thirty taels of silver.

Twenty to thirty taels of silver! It was divided between Old Yuan and his brothers, but each family still received nearly ten taels of silver.

Moreover, these twenty to thirty taels of silver were only the guesses of the villagers. No one knew the exact amount they were getting.

Initially, the villagers of the Lin He village all came from similar family backgrounds, and no one was better off than the other. They were all born in poverty, so they hardly criticized one another

However, suddenly, the Old Yuan family situation seemed to improve significantly. How could the villagers not feel jealous?

“They are meant to lead a great life!”

“Great life my ass! If they’re really lucky, why didn’t they get rich previously? Why only now?”

“Isn’t it because they gave birth to a girl?”

“She’s just a little girl, a money-losing thing. How can she make her family rich?”

“I’m telling you, the Yuan family is the only one in the village who did not have a female in their family. Before Yuan Zhao Di’s wife gave birth, they never had a girl for four generations.”

“Don’t you think this is strange?”

As the villagers spoke about the Yuan family’s situation, the people around them were dumbfounded.

After a long time, the group of people finally came back to their senses.

“Old uncle, according to what you’ve said, the Yuan family became rich because they finally had a girl in their family. What if this girl gets married in the future?”

“That’s right, that’s right, all girls have to get married!”

“If this little girl is what brought the Yuan family good fortune, wouldn’t the family situation end like the past after she got married?”

Even though the villagers were simple, they had brains.

“Well, maybe he’s looking for a son-in-law!” The old man didn’t know how to refute. In a moment of desperation, he gave a rather improper answer.

This time, the surrounding people booed.

Marry into his family? That was something that only families without sons would do.

As for the Yuan family?

To put it bluntly, no boy in this village, or even the entire county, could compare to the Yuan family. Who could marry into such a family? The old man must have been kicked in the head by a donkey!

“What? You guys still don’t believe me?”

“Then let’s wait and see. When the time comes, we’ll see if the girl of the Yuan family will marry into our family!”

“Uncle, please don’t do that. If we can see that day, I’m afraid we’ll have to burn joss paper to inform you!”

“Little brat, you’re cursing me! I’ll teach you a lesson!”

As a result, the scene was in chaos.

Following the commotion, the crowd that was sitting started to disperse.

However, this farce-like conversation did not die down.

Although many people in the village did not believe that the Yuan family’s good luck came from their little girl, there were some things that one would rather believe than not.

Then, under the influence of such thoughts, the news that the Old Yuan family had given birth to a blessed girl spread like wildfire and slowly spread to the surrounding areas.
