The new connector is a young girl. There is nothing wrong with her appearance, but she carries a faint evil power.
Zhu Xiaoxiao's originally round face has become thin, and long-term depression has made her face look bitter.
"Master, am I born an unlucky person?"
Su Yan disagreed with her statement: "Judging from your original fate, although you are not a very blessed person, you don't have any signs of bringing misfortune to others."
"But since I was born, something bad has happened every year."
"My mother told me that when I was born, the amniotic fluid went into my lungs and I stayed in the hospital for a long time before I was rescued. That experience also left me with a chronic illness.
After going to school, in order to avoid getting sick, I could only stay in the classroom and watch others play. Despite taking all the precautions, I still had to stay in the hospital for one to two months every year.
After leaving school, I became even more unlucky. I was kidnapped by human traffickers, fell into the water, and was trapped in my house when it caught fire...
In short, I spend every day in fear, always afraid that I might lose my life if I am not careful.
Because of my physical condition, my classmates at school didn’t want to sit at the same table with me, and my relatives’ children didn’t want to pay attention to me. I could only stay in my own little room every day.
Later, I had a conflict with my cousin, and she yelled at me: "You jinx, my mom said you're just a debt collector, and everyone in the family hates you.
She also refused to let me play with you. I only paid attention to you because I felt sorry for you. I didn't expect you to make me angry. I will never pay attention to you again."
In order to prove that I was not a jinx, I took them to the supermarket, hoping to prove my luck by winning prizes by buying things.
At that time, I had some ulterior motives and deliberately chose the drink with the highest winning rate in that era, hoping to get a buy-one-get-one-free offer.
With the belief that I would win, I took out my small stash of money and generously bought a whole box of drinks.
But I opened five bottles and there was no prize. At first, I could still force myself to say that there was no prize in this drink.
As soon as I finished my excuse, an ironic scene occurred: the remaining seven bottles all had prizes.
My cousin pointed at me happily, like a victorious rooster: "I told you she was a jinx. She had such a high chance of winning, but she didn't win a single bottle."
Zhu Xiaoxiao was holding the unscrewed bottle cap, at a loss, and could only explain palely: "That's not the case. I haven't opened the prize yet. This whole box is mine."
My cousin made a face at her and said, "To explain is to cover up. You are such a jinx, so stay away from us from now on."
After they returned home, they told the adults what happened in the convenience store in vivid detail. The relatives all laughed happily, but I huddled in the corner, not knowing how to explain.
After their unremitting propaganda, the three words "jinx" were completely welded to me.
After this incident, whenever something bad happens to someone who comes into contact with me, they will blame it on me.
The sentences I heard the most were:
"I told you not to play with that jinx, and now look what's happened. Your dad even lost his job because of her."
"You're in the crucial exam period now, so stay away from this jinx. If you're influenced by her, you'll make mistakes on all the questions you don't know, and you'll be in big trouble later."
"This unlucky star has appeared again. No wonder nothing I have done has gone well these past few days."
I was very sad about what they thought of me, and in order to avoid bad luck, I tried to stay away from people.
Fortunately, I still have parents who care about me and always comfort me when I am sad."
"Daughter, you are not a jinx. It's all their fault for not working hard and having bad luck, and they can still blame you for it.
If you really have this ability, Dad will send you directly to my rival's company, and then you can make them go bankrupt with just a word."
“I used to think that as long as I had my parents’ care, I could live happily in the world, but I didn’t expect that I would also bring disaster to my parents.
Since last winter vacation, our family business has been in a slump. First, my father lost a big project due to a setup, and then the partner found a better buyer and was willing to pay the penalty to terminate the contract with our family.
As more and more things happened, my father became a little anxious and took a risk to join a project that seemed to have good prospects.
In order to quickly increase the company's production, my father invested all of the company's working capital and also borrowed a lot of money from the bank by mortgaging it.
Just when everything seemed promising, the project was suddenly hit by a major setback and the state forcibly cut short its development.
This failure dealt a heavy blow to the company. Unable to recover financially, the company was forced to declare bankruptcy, and my father even sold our car and house to pay back the bank.
"After the company went bankrupt, the once harmonious family began to quarrel.
My mother blamed my father for still putting on airs even at this point and being unwilling to go out and get back the money he had previously lent to relatives.
My father blamed my mother for not understanding his hard work. During one heated argument, my father blurted out, "I think what others say is right. You gave birth to a jinx. Maybe my company went bankrupt because of her."
Master, do you think I am really the culprit for the misfortune in our family?"
After hearing this, I can only say that this person is quite difficult to kill. He has survived so many things without any injuries.
[At first I thought she was exaggerating, but now it seems her luck is truly bad. Perhaps she really did affect the family's fortune, leading to its rapid decline.]
I can understand her feelings because I'm the unlucky one who couldn't even win a prize for a 50-cent bag of sunflower seeds.
I have only one feeling: poverty brings many sorrows to a couple. Even the most elegant and harmonious families will quarrel due to lack of money.
Su Yan felt very sympathetic towards the girl. From her expression, it could be seen that the three words "jinx" were a knot in her heart.
No matter how calm she acted, this title still caused her indelible trauma.
"You have never been a jinx, and the family's ruin has nothing to do with you. This is just your father's fate.
And this fate also appeared for no reason, it is related to your grandfather.
Do you have any impression of your grandfather's rise to wealth? "
Zhu Xiaoxiao shook her head: "No, I just remember Dad once said that Grandpa was the great contributor to our family. It was because of his foresight that our family was able to seize the opportunity of the times and have the wealth we have today."
"Your father was right. Your grandfather was indeed a man of great courage. But what he didn't tell you was that the way your grandfather made his fortune was not dishonorable. He even stepped on the blood of others."
