Chapter 94: The nourishment of the era's Fubao

2024 6 Month 20 Day.

In an ordinary room of Huikang Nursing Home, Zhang Zhaodi ended her sad life as if she was relieved.

When Zhang Zhaodi was born, there was a drought that had not been seen in a century. Only eight people were left in the family of fifteen. Her superstitious grandmother thought that Zhang Zhaodi was unlucky and would bring bad luck to her relatives and friends, so she almost suffocated her to death.

When she was five years old, her mother died during childbirth, leaving behind an infant brother.

When she was seven years old, her father fell off a cliff on his way home from chopping firewood, and she became a complete orphan without a father or a mother.

When she was fifteen, she was sold by her grandmother to a man who had beaten to death his two wives and two children. The man died just after she gave birth to the children, so she had to raise three children alone.

When she was 30, her son drowned and she was driven out of the house by her two grown-up stepsons. She followed her fellow villagers to the south to work.

Unexpectedly, thirty years later, her two stepsons came and cheated her of all her savings. Fortunately, she still received a monthly pension.

She felt that she was extremely unlucky in her life!

When Zhang Zhaodi stopped breathing, her soul was captured by something called "System". "Do you want to start over again? Change your life? I am the Fortune System, and I can help you reverse your luck."

Zhang Zhaodi: "Good fortune? How to reverse it?"

System: "Bind to the system, designate a person, and use her luck to support you. But the disadvantage is that it forms a closed loop, you are strong and she is weak..."

Zhang Zhaodi: "Bind, bind!"

The old lady also loves reading novels. The Fubao in the novels is the life she has always dreamed of. She doesn’t care whether plundering other people’s luck will harm them.

After binding the system, Zhang Zhaodi was extremely excited. This overwhelming wealth was finally hers. "I want Zhang Shan's luck to support me. I want to absorb Zhang Shan's luck!"

Zhang Shan is like her control group. The more unlucky she is, the happier Zhang Shan is. She is also most jealous of Zhang Shan. Why is it that although they are all girls, Zhang Shan is so pampered, can go to school without working in the fields, and later become a highly regarded diplomat?

"System, can I exchange identities with Zhang Shan?"

She wants Zhang Shan’s grandparents, Zhang Shan’s parents, Zhang Shan’s brother... everything that Zhang Shan has.

System: “It’s not impossible…”

Zhang Zhaodi: "What are the conditions?"

System: "Deduct five points from your luck."

Zhang Zhaodi: “Go ahead!”

The luck she deducted all belonged to Zhang Shan. The more she used it, the weaker Zhang Shan's luck became. Not only did Zhang Zhaodi not feel bad about it, she was also very generous.

With a wave of his hand, he let the system deduct five points of luck value. The system was so refreshing that it felt that he had said too little.

With the help of the system, two pregnant women working in the fields collided with each other, and the system successfully replaced the fetuses.

While Zhang Shan was squinting, she had moved to another place.

He secretly breathed a sigh of relief. In his previous life, the original owner seemed to have a good life, but the financial power was in the hands of his parents and brother. He remained unmarried and childless all his life, and became the workhorse of the family.

In the previous life, the original owner had his luck robbed by Zhang Zhaodi, was born stillborn, and was thrown into a cesspool.

Naturally, she did not participate in the subsequent story.

"Mother, I heard that you fell today. Is your stomach okay?"

Zhang Yougen reached out and touched her belly. It was only three months, so naturally there was no fetal movement. Zhang Shan consciously stayed away from her.

"Did you find anything to eat when you went up the mountain today? The weather is getting weirder and weirder. None of the crops we just planted are growing."

Zhang Yougen secretly took out a pheasant egg from his arms. It was only two times bigger than a quail egg. In this weather, even pheasant eggs were small.

"It's ready. You can eat it secretly. My son still needs to grow."

Liu Cuihua hid the egg under her clothes. She looked around to make sure no one found it, then she peeled the eggshell and ate it in small bites. After she finished eating, she lay down to rest.

Her mother-in-law would not enter her room, and Liu Cuihua was not worried about her mother-in-law smelling the scent of eggs.

On the other side, Zhang Zhaodi started to make trouble again.

The temperature has risen in the past few days, the crops on the ground are not growing, and the wild vegetables in the mountains have been picked up. Her mother Gao Yulan has returned home empty-handed for several days in a row.

This won’t work. Even if others don’t eat, she still needs to grow.

So, the system arranged a pheasant to hit Gao Yulan's trouser leg.

As a control group, Zhang Yougen also encountered a wild boar. The wild boar, weighing more than 100 kilograms and with red eyes from hunger, rushed towards Zhang Yougen when it saw him.

Zhang Yougen was so scared that he peed his pants.

"Help!"

How can humans run as fast as wild boars?

Zhang Yougen was knocked flying by the wild boar and almost fell off the cliff. At the critical moment, the straps of the backpack behind him pulled him back, but the wild boar unfortunately hit a rock and fainted.

Zhang Yougen climbed back and leaned against the tree roots, panting, "Damn, this is too scary!"

Before Zhang Yougen could recover from his shock, Zhang Zhaodi's father in this life, Zhang Mancang, walked out of the thorn forest with a hatchet in his hand. When he saw the wild boar, his eyes lit up.

After walking a few steps, I saw Zhang Yougen sitting under a tree.

"Zhang Yougen?"

Zhang Yougen had already picked up the hatchet and was holding it tightly in his hands.

"Zhang Mancang, if you dare to rob, one of us will have to stay here today!"

That’s meat!

Even though Zhang Yougen had not yet recovered from his shock, he would never allow the wild boar he had caught to be snatched away by anyone.

"Zhang Yougen, whoever sees it gets a share. Besides, you can't carry it back, so why don't we divide it."

"If you want to share the meat with me, why don't you ask my brothers? If you don't want to die, leave now. If anyone knows about this wild boar, we brothers will come to your house to reason with you!"

There are fourteen people in Zhang Yougen's family. Zhang Yougen is the fourth child, with three older brothers and one younger brother. Zhang Mancang is the only child. Without any brothers to help him, he could only leave reluctantly.

"Mom, Yougen hasn't come back for such a long time. I'm a little worried. His eyelids are twitching badly. Why don't we ask the eldest brother, the second brother, and the third brother to go up the mountain to look for him?"

"He's such a grown man, what could possibly happen to him?"

Old Mrs. Zhang was a little unhappy.

Liu Cuihua had a premonition that she had to find her uncle and the others to go up the mountain. After failing to convince Old Lady Zhang, Liu Cuihua went to find her sister-in-law, uncle, and brother-in-law.

They didn't want to let a pregnant woman go up the mountain alone to look for someone, so under Liu Cuihua's radar-like guidance, the nine people came to the mountain where Zhang Yougen was.

The more Zhang Mancang thought about it, the more unwilling he became. He waited at the foot of the mountain for half an hour but saw no sign of Zhang Yougen's brothers showing up. He felt that Zhang Yougen was lying to him, giving him the illusion that his brothers had gone down the mountain to find someone to transport the wild boar.

"Bah, good for you Zhang Yougen!"

Driven by the desire for survival and profit, the darkest side of a person can be induced.

Zhang Mancang has already made up his mind and is determined to snatch the wild boar away.

"There is only Zhang Yougen on the mountain. If anything happens to Zhang Yougen, no one will think it has anything to do with him."

Zhang Mancang had long disliked Zhang Yougen, who relied on the fact that he had many brothers to act arrogantly in the village.

The evil thoughts in his heart grew stronger and stronger. When he reached halfway up the mountain, he heard someone talking.

It seems like they are really Zhang Yougen’s brothers.

That’s not all.

And there are women!

With so many people around, Zhang Mancang had no choice but to leave no matter how reluctant he was.

"Damn it, aren't you kidding me?"

Zhang Mancang hid behind a rock and waited until the Zhang family left before coming out. He spat at them before going down the mountain.

After Zhang Yougen tricked Zhang Mancang away, he was also worried about the wild boar. The wild boar just fainted and soon woke up. Before it could stand up, Zhang Yougen stabbed it in the neck with a knife, and blood spurted out.

After the wild boar was completely dead, Zhang Yougen heard the sound of people talking. He held the hatchet tightly in his hand and looked at them vigilantly.

Zhang Yougen relaxed when he saw his elder brother Zhang Youliang's face. "Brother! I'm here."

Zhang Youliang smelled blood early in the morning and was very worried, thinking that something had happened to Zhang Yougen.

Seeing that he was still standing in front of him, he felt relieved.

"Old Four, are you okay?"

"Brother, this is not my blood, come and see!"

Under the guidance of Zhang Yougen, everyone pushed aside the dry grass and saw a wild boar weighing more than 180 kilograms lying on the ground.

"Fourth brother, you actually hunted a wild boar!"

The sister-in-law swallowed subconsciously. She hadn't tasted meat for several years.

"If this wild boar hadn't been starving, it would have weighed more than 200 kilograms."

Second brother Zhang Youyin said with some regret.

The five brothers cut the wild boar into pieces, put them into backpacks, and waited until dark to carry them back.

When Old Mrs. Zhang saw so much meat, her eyes lit up.

"No one saw it?"

"Mom, we didn't meet anyone when we moved back."

Zhang Yougen had already changed his clothes. Thinking of something, he asked, "Brother, did you see Zhang Mancang on the way up the mountain?"

"No, did you meet him?"

Zhang Yougen nodded. Zhang Mancang had been down the mountain for so long, there was no reason why he wouldn't meet his elder brother. Could it be that Zhang Mancang had never gone down the mountain at all?

You didn’t go down the mountain. Are you waiting for something?

Thinking of something, Zhang Yougen broke out in sweat.

"If you hadn't found me, I would have been in danger. Brother, how did you find me?"

"This is all thanks to your wife."

There was a hint of sincerity in Zhang Yougen's eyes when he looked at Liu Cuihua.

"Boss, luckily you are okay. Since noon, my eyelids have been twitching and my stomach is uncomfortable. A voice told me to find you. It might be our son... Ouch~"

Her stomach suddenly hurt again and Liu Cuihua frowned.

"Fourth sister-in-law, I guess the baby in your belly got angry when she heard you call her son. Maybe it's a little niece."

Liu Cuihua was a little unhappy. Her eldest, second and third sisters-in-law all gave birth to sons. If she gave birth to a daughter, what status would she have in this family?

Old Mrs. Zhang hung the meat in the warehouse and heard their conversation. "Whether it's a grandson or a granddaughter, she is a good one just because she brought so much meat to our family."

This much meat will last me a long time.

When the good granddaughter Zhang Zhaodi heard Zhang Mancang's complaints and unwillingness, she immediately became unhappy.

"System, why is Zhang Yougen okay? Didn't I ask you to lead a wild boar over there?"

Not only was Zhang Yougen fine, but the wild boar originally prepared for Zhang Mancang was also taken away, which made Zhang Zhaodi very angry.

"This is just a case of plans failing to keep up with changes. Who made Zhang Yougen so lucky?"

The system is also frustrated.

"Is Zhang Yougen's luck better than Zhang Mancang's?"

Yes, in the previous life, among the five brothers of Zhang Yougen, only Zhang Yougen and his wife Liu Cuihua survived.

Zhang Zhaodi was somewhat unwilling.

Zhang Yougen's family cooked a big pot of bone soup, which they put in precious corn grits. It was soft, tender and sweet, and the whole family was extremely satisfied after eating it.

“It would be great if I could eat like this every day!”

"You're dreaming!" Old Mrs. Zhang slapped Zhang Laowu on the back of the head.

But when she looked at Liu Cuihua's belly, her eyes became much gentler.

Eaters have short mouths.

"You can't leave until the smell dissipates."
