Sold at Birth? My Educated Youth Dad Kicks Down the Door to Split Up the Family

Just three days after her birth, Dou Miao was stuffed into a bamboo basket by her stepmother, who planned to trade her for fifty yuan.

In her previous life, she didn't survive that snowy night. Given another chance, she found a treasure pouch in her swaddling clothes: it dropped one supply every day, from baby formula and ration coupons to medicine. Whatever she needed, it provided.

She also came with a lucky knack for bringing wealth. Anyone who truly cared for her would find extra eggs in the chicken coop, water in a dry well, or wild goods while foraging in the mountains. Anyone who dared scheme against her would be chased down by karmic retribution.

The down-and-out educated youth Tian Jianhe had always been pushed around by his family. The night he brought his daughter home from the bamboo basket, he grabbed a door bar and blocked the entrance to the old family home. When his biased parents tried to take their share of the rations, he split from the family in front of everyone. When his vicious stepmother tried to steal the treasure pouch, she ended up sending herself straight to the police station.

Just as father and daughter were getting their lives on track, a jeep pulled up outside the commune office. The person inside had come specifically to take Dou Miao away.
