The Reborn Girl Wants to Kill Me

Chapter 342 Koi Life 2

A group of people hurriedly carried Ji Yanli back. Old man Ji was waiting at the door with an anxious look on his face. Standing next to him was a thin and dark girl. Almost the moment she saw Ji Yanli, she rushed over crying.

"elder brother!"

Ji Feiwan looked at Ji Yanli's injured leg and burst into tears, "Brother, I shouldn't have said I wanted to eat meat. I don't want to eat meat anymore, and I won't eat meat anymore!"

Ji Yanli endured the pain and touched the little girl's head: "You have to eat it. The meat is so delicious. I am greedy too."

Old man Ji raised the crutch in his hand and put it down again. If it weren't for the fact that Ji's leg was injured, he would have beaten him up.

With only a few pounds and ounces, they dared to go deep into the woods.

Someone pulled a cart over, ready to lift Ji Yanli onto it and take him to the town to have his leg checked.

Old man Ji went back to the house and took the only copper coins left in the house. His original parents were no longer around. His second uncle married into the Jin family, who ran a rouge shop in town. His youngest uncle married a strong woman from the same village. The family also had ten acres of fertile land. Logically, even if life was not good, it would not be too bad.

But unfortunately, when the original body's father was alive, he was obsessed with studying and taking the imperial examinations, and the money he spent was a bottomless pit. Often, there was not enough money at home and he had to borrow some from outside. In the long run, there was no spare money, and only a pile of foreign debts was left.

His second uncle just couldn't stand this kind of life of tightening his belt to support one person, so he ran away to the town to marry into another's family. He rarely came back unless it was necessary, which might be because he was holding some resentment in his heart.

Uncle San didn't say anything, but after his original parents passed away, he was visibly in better spirits. It was understandable that this was like getting rid of a huge burden for him.

My cousin Ji Feiwan is my uncle's daughter and has a very good relationship with the original body, so when my cousin was craving meat, the original body went up the mountain with others to hunt wild game.

Many people in the village have done this. As long as they don't go deep into the forest, nothing will happen. But most of the time they are unlucky and can't catch anything.

The original owner had never expected that he would be so unlucky as to encounter a mad wild boar, and he had never expected that his companion would stab him in the back, causing him to almost fall into the pig's mouth.

I hope that in this world line, the original body is not dead and is rescued by passers-by, but one of his legs is broken and he becomes a cripple, unable to do farm work and becomes a burden to the family.

After the original body became a cripple, Zhang Tiezhu's family from the same village used their connections to get him a job as a kitchen helper in a restaurant in town. He learned a skill that could support him, and after a few years he became a chef, thus completely differentiating himself from the original body who was just a peasant.

The little cousin Ji Feiwan felt that her cousin had become like this because of herself, and she always felt guilty towards her original self. When she grew up, her original self had difficulty finding a husband because of her lameness. When she finally found a man who was willing to marry her, he asked for a betrothal gift of ten taels of silver. In order to raise enough betrothal gift for her cousin, Ji Feiwan was instigated by others and sold herself.

She was sold to a widower in the next village for ten taels of silver, which was just enough as a betrothal gift for my cousin.

Of course the Ji family refused to accept after they found out, and the original owner even took the silver to return it to the widower. He was already in this state and couldn't let his cousin get involved.

However, he had just returned to the village after paying back the silver when he heard the news that his cousin had been bullied by hooligans and had committed suicide by jumping into the river.

My uncle's family only had this one daughter, and she's gone now. Her original body was also half disabled. Although the Ji family did not split up, the whole family lived a miserable life.

Especially in the original body's later years, after his relatives left, he was often so hungry that he had to drink water to fill his stomach. In the end, he starved to death in the house. When he was found, maggots were all over his body.

Even though every family has a hard time in this day and age, the Ji family is the only one that lives like this. Except for the second son of the Ji family who married into the family, the Ji family is considered to have no descendants.

In sharp contrast to them is the Zhang family at the east end of the village. After Zhang Tiezhu saved enough money, he bought a house in the town and moved to the town with his parents. Zhang Tiezhu's sister, Zhang Daya, even married a scholar. Within a few years, the scholar passed the imperial examination and Zhang Daya became the wife of a scholar, living a glorious life.

People in the village often compare the two families. They are from the same village, but their lives are very different. One family is extremely unlucky and poor, and has no roots left, while the other family is smooth sailing and blessed with good fortune. Zhang Daya has even crossed classes.

The Zhang family was very proud of the admiration from the villagers. Once, Zhang Tiezhu let slip after getting drunk that their family's current success was all thanks to his sister Zhang Daya, who had a koi-like fate and was the lucky star of their entire family.

Just like that, word of Zhang Daya's lucky fate spread.

The villagers thought about it and felt that it made sense. When Zhang Daya was in the Zhang family, the Zhang family's life was getting better and better. She married into the family of a scholar, and the scholar passed the imperial examination and became a juren. How could it not be considered a good life?

Comparing this with the extremely unlucky Ji family, one can't help but sigh: a person's fate is determined by heaven.

Ji Yanli was lying on the cart. Uncle Ji had been called back from the fields. He was pushing the cart with fatigue on his face. Ji Feiwan followed beside him, wiping his tears. Old man Ji did not follow because he was old and was afraid that his slow pace would hinder his grandson's legs.

But when Ji Yanli heard his deep sigh, he felt heavy in his heart.

Man's destiny is predestined.

Ji Yanli knows how to read faces, and he also believes in this saying: a person's destiny is predetermined at birth, and the path he will take in this life has been arranged from the moment he is born.

Some people are born smart and clever, work hard and finally achieve success in their careers. Some people are also very smart, but always encounter various hardships and setbacks, and ultimately live a mediocre life without accomplishing anything.

Some people achieve success through acquired efforts, while others achieve success late in life. However, when it comes to face reading, people who understand it can tell the whole story at a glance.

Ji Yanli looked at his third uncle's face carefully. He was not destined to be rich, but he was not destined to lose his daughter in middle age. He looked at Ji Feiwan again, and with surprise and doubt in his heart, he became more certain of his guess.

Every time the Ji family suffered misfortune, it was contrasted with the Zhang family's luck. The original person encountered a wild boar and became a cripple. Not long after, Zhang Tiezhu became a kitchen helper in a restaurant. Ji Feiwan was raped and committed suicide by jumping into the river. In the same year, Zhang Daya married a scholar and changed her name to Zhang Qiuyue.

Going back further, the original body's parents passed away, and the Zhang family made a fortune and built a new house. When you think about it carefully, it makes people break out in a cold sweat.

Zhang Daya,

Koi life.

Is it really the fate of a koi fish?

Or is it a dove stealing a nest, a ghost stealing lives?
