"Li Baizhi! Come out here now, or I'll skin you alive!"
"You jinx, born of a mother but not raised by one, you dare to harm our Xiangxiang? I'll make you pay!"
There was a lot of noise outside, and the sharp sounds were a bit jarring.
Bai Zhi frowned uncomfortably, her head filled with all the experiences of the original owner.
It is the 1970s, the second year after the resumption of the college entrance examination, which just ended yesterday.
This is a small village in a poor rural area, Lijia Village.
There are several people from Lijia Village taking the college entrance examination this year. Among them, the most promising ones are the original owner Li Baizhi and Li Xiangxiang next door.
But the two people's situations are completely different.
The original owner lost both his parents and depended on his grandfather for support. He was called a "jinx" and a "disaster star" by the villagers. He was introverted and could not get a word out of him. In Lijia Village, he was like air and was ignored.
Li Xiangxiang lives in a blue-tiled house next to Li Baizhi. She has three older brothers and a fierce mother who protects her like the apple of her eye. No one dares to bully her. Since she was a child, she has been the envy of all the girls in the village.
The two families have been at odds for a long time.
When the original owner's grandfather was young, he had some wealth in the village and was considered a wealthy man in the village.
Li Xiangxiang's parents and their family had no food to eat, so the original owner's grandfather was kind-hearted and rented out his property to them, allocating two acres of land for them to farm.
At that time, Li Xiangxiang's grandfather was kneeling on the ground, shouting that he would work like a slave for the rest of his life to repay the original owner's family.
Later, the situation changed and the original owner's family was condemned by everyone. Li Xiangxiang's grandfather and parents immediately tore off their grateful faces and showed wolfish expressions.
The blue-tiled house and everything inside were occupied by Li Xiangxiang's parents and their family. They also drove the original owner's grandfather and his family to live in the sheep pen next door, and would come to the house from time to time to insult them.
The original owner's parents and grandfather were not well-liked in the village, and the original owner was also not well-liked.
After the original owner's parents died, she became a disaster in everyone's eyes. Because the grandfather and grandson had always been the most miserable people in the village, gradually no one bothered them anymore.
The only exception was the family next door who occupied their blue-tiled house and often relied on their four strong laborers to make things difficult for the grandfather and grandson who depended on each other for survival.
Li Xiangxiang looked down on the original owner. Although they were of the same age, they didn't have much in common.
Until something happened a month ago.
A year ago, a young educated youth named Gu Xinchen came to the village. He was said to be a young master from Beijing. He was handsome and his family was powerful. Almost all the girls in the village liked Gu Xinchen.
Gu Xinchen only has a good relationship with the three brothers next door, and he and Li Xiangxiang are a pair of happy enemies, a recognized couple.
A month ago, Gu Xinchen was preparing to return to Beijing to prepare for the exam. Somehow he got into an argument with Li Xiangxiang. The original owner ran into them on the way back from digging wild vegetables in the mountains.
Before the original owner could dodge, Gu Xinchen grabbed him and said -
"Li Xiangxiang, I'm telling you, I'm going to marry Li Baizhi from now on!"
Li Xiangxiang ran back crying, and Gu Xinchen also left with gritted teeth, and even returned to Beijing the next day.
The original owner blushed and his heart beat fast.
Yes, the original owner also liked Gu Xinchen. She had an inferiority complex and had liked a young man with a flamboyant personality like Gu Xinchen for a long time.
The original owner knew that Gu Xinchen said that because he had quarreled with Li Xiangxiang, and did not hold any extravagant hopes.
However, she never expected that Gu Xinchen's words would cause such a big trouble. He left, but Li Xiangxiang hated the original owner.
When she went back crying and told her mother Chen Guifang, she immediately came to the door and blocked the original owner and scolded her.
There were also Li Xiangxiang's three brothers who broke into the original owner's house the day before the original owner's college entrance examination and burned the original owner's admission ticket.
The rules here are strict and you cannot take the exam without an admission ticket. The original owner ran to the county town crying, but still could not take the college entrance examination. Even if her grades were good, there was nothing she could do.
The original owner didn't know who did it, so he could only grieve at home with his grandfather Li Shuanmin.
Of course, even if the original owner knew that it was done by Li Xiangxiang’s three brothers next door, in this era without surveillance, he would have no way to do anything.
Yesterday, the college entrance examination ended.
Li Xiangxiang returned to Lijia Village today, and as soon as she came back, she went to the lake to talk to the original owner.
She told the original owner—
"You can't take the college entrance examination without your admission ticket. You will only be a country girl in the future. You are not worthy of Xinchen at all. Besides, Xinchen doesn't like you. He just quarreled with me!"
The original owner hadn't remembered the sadness yet, and immediately thought of -
She didn't take the exam because she lost her admission ticket. No one in the village knew about it, so how did Li Xiangxiang know?!
So, the original owner became suspicious and began to question Li Xiangxiang.
Li Xiangxiang looked panicked and wanted to leave. During the struggle, the two fell into the water together.
So, the original owner was blocked by Chen Guifang and scolded, and his grandfather Li Shuanmin was pushed to the ground during the scuffle and never recovered from the illness.
The original owner accused her neighbor Li Xiangxiang and others of burning her admission ticket, but she was powerless and not good at speaking, so no one believed her. She was also blamed by her neighbors, who said that she framed Gu Xinchen and she almost couldn't stay in the village.
The original owner was not popular in the village to begin with, and was bullied even more afterwards. His grandfather could not go to the fields, and the original owner could not earn any work points, so the two of them lived in even greater poverty.
Li Xiangxiang was admitted to the Normal University in Beijing, which was the glory of the entire village. She went to Beijing where Gu Xinchen was to study at the university.
The family next door was large and powerful, with four strong laborers, and the original owner and Li Shuanmin were bullied by them, which made them very miserable.
Before the original owner could take the college entrance examination again, Li Shuanmin died of hunger that winter due to poor health from a fall he had previously suffered, as well as frequent hunger and bullying.
The original owner studied hard and vowed to take revenge.
Before the college entrance examination another year ago, the original owner put away his admission ticket, but he didn't expect that when he was digging wild vegetables, he was pushed down the mountain and died.
The last thing she saw before she died was the sinister expressions on the faces of Li Xiangxiang's three brothers.
The original owner never had a good day, and even failed the college entrance examination.
The tragedy began simply because a young couple was arguing and she was passing by.
After reading the whole story, Bai Zhi was a little confused.
This was not the era she was familiar with. The technological poverty in this world was simply astonishing, and the original owner's life was truly lamentable.
Grandpa did good things, but he became the farmer and the snake.
The original owner did nothing, and his first chance to change his fate was destroyed, and the second time he was killed!
At this time, the system prompt in my head——
"Wish System No. 444 reminds the host that the original owner of this world wanted to protect his grandfather, live a good and beautiful life, never fall in love with anyone again, and make the neighboring family suffer retribution."
Bai Zhi was silent for a moment, then asked, "So my mission is to fulfill the original owner's wish and satisfy her?"
"Yes, this is the responsibility of our wish system! Since this is the host's first task, as long as the task score reaches 50, it will be considered qualified, and the full score is 100. As a reminder, points will be deducted if you fail. The host's current points are 0." System 444 explained.
"Is the highest you can get is only one hundred?" Bai Zhi didn't need to ask what the passing score was and what the excellent score was. She grasped another key point and asked.
444 choked and paused for two seconds before saying—
"If you achieve a perfect level and receive an additional SSS rating, you could potentially score over 100. However, the Wish System 444 reminds you that the host's emotional quotient is only 70.
"According to the data from the system, people with higher emotional intelligence are likely to get higher scores, and the host's emotional intelligence is so low that it's difficult to even get a passing score to pass the mission..."
Therefore, hosts with an EQ of 70 are extremely unwelcome in the system world!!
Otherwise, it wouldn't be bound to this wish system, which is at the bottom of the system world. It would have been picked up by popular systems such as the Domination System, the Supporting Actress System, the Trash Abuse System, etc.!
Bai Zhi didn't feel any bad emotions because of this, she said calmly -
"Correction, at this point, you should perhaps note that my IQ is 230. EQ refers to emotional intelligence, the ability to manage one's own emotions and the emotions of others. I think judging mission completion based on EQ is a flawed criterion. As long as I'm strong enough, I don't need to manage my own emotions, nor do I need to worry about the emotions of others."
She habitually wanted to push up her glasses, but then she remembered that she was no longer the interstellar scientist Bai Zhi, but a conscious being who had bound herself to a system and parasitized on someone else's body after death in order to explore higher technology.
In this world, her name is Li Baizhi.
Wish system 444 paused again. It really wanted to curse - What the hell are you dreaming about?
When mission points are so easy to earn? When the original owners of missions are so easy to satisfy?!
However, before it could speak, Bai Zhi propped herself up and sat up and got out of bed.
It was noisy outside. If she didn't go out, the original owner's grandfather would probably be pushed to the ground again in the scuffle and develop a chronic illness.
As he walked out, he said, "Okay, it's time to get the SSS score. Now please shut your mouth and stop making noise in my brain."
Wish 444 was choked again. It stopped talking, but it really didn't care in its heart.
In fact, if it weren't for the mandatory assignment, it wouldn't want to be bound to this low EQ host who couldn't even complete a task!
"Li Dazhu, please be reasonable. You are such a shrew! How Bai Zhi and Li Xiangxiang fell into the water is still unknown. My Bai Zhi is an introvert. Don't wrongly accuse her!"
"Bah, how can we be sure?! My Xiangxiang is such a simple person, this bitch of yours must be taking revenge on her. She's fallen for Gu Xinchen, and seeing that my Xiangxiang is going to college, she's just jealous!
"She's just a bitch and a vixen. She deserves not to be admitted to university. Everyone, please judge for yourself. Is it really necessary for my Xiangxiang to push her?! What is there about her that makes Xiangxiang hate her? It's obvious that she's jealous of Xiangxiang!"
Chen Guifang has a very loud voice and half the village can hear her.
Almost everyone in the village came to watch, and many people nodded when they heard what was said.
Yes, what is there about Li Baizhi that Li Xiangxiang hates? On the contrary, Li Xiangxiang, because everything about her is too good, does easily arouse jealousy.
Therefore, it doesn’t make sense to say that Li Xiangxiang pushed Li Baizhi into the water, but it does make perfect sense to say that Li Baizhi pushed Li Xiangxiang into the water because she was jealous of her!
The villagers' expressions immediately became somewhat convinced.
Just at this time, Bai Zhi came out.
