The Song family, with its abundance of sons, finally has a little girl!
Too bad she's supposedly born under an unlucky star. Right after she was born, her father fell and ended up in the hospital, and her mother hemorrhaged so badly she nearly died. The villagers mocked the family, saying that after all their hoping, they'd only produced an unlucky little girl.
But the Song family must have rocks for brains. They didn't believe in bad omens, and they doted on the little girl as she grew up.
The eldest Song son went into the mountains to gather wild vegetables and came back with one leg crippled. The second son got caught up in a raid while watching the commotion in town, and his family was confiscated. The third son was inexplicably kicked out of school and couldn't study anymore...
Everyone said the girl was a curse who would bring ruin to the whole family sooner or later.
Old Lady Song had a fiery temper. She went straight at the villagers who were gossiping about them with a rolling pin. Later, she even boasted that her daughter had been born lucky and would lead the whole family to prosperity one day.
The villagers waited to see the Song family make fools of themselves.
In the first year, the Song family's eldest son, the one with the crippled leg, became a worker.
In the second year, the Song family built a new house.
In the third year, the whole Song family moved to the city.
The villagers: ?!! So she really was a lucky little girl!!!
The female lead's version:
Little Fu Bao recently had a dream. She dreamed that she was actually a lucky child from a New Year painting who had come to life, and that the world was a book whose protagonist was her family's old enemy.
As a family affected by the protagonist's halo, hers would grow poorer and poorer until they had to sell their sons and daughters...
When she woke up, Fu Bao burst into tears.
-
As the highest-ranking girl in the Song family by generation, Fu Bao grew up surrounded by a bunch of nephews.
After that dream, Fu Bao looked at her nephews with their runny noses and missing front teeth, then glanced toward their ramshackle house. What would happen if they got any poorer?!
Fu Bao worried day and night, and before she knew it... her family was well on its way to moderate prosperity...
Song Fuqing: I may be just a little lucky girl, but! I! Bring! Luck! To! My! Family!
