The Lucky Star Control Corporation in the 70s (16)

As for Chu Xiang, she studied very well at first, but her grades fell sharply in the college entrance examination. She also rolled down the slope and ruined her appearance. Now their house has burned down, and their family’s property has shrunk directly, yet she has gone to the hospital again. That was a place that burned money. What’s more, Chu Xiang would be in a vegetative state. They had to support someone who was half-dead and couldn’t contribute anything. She would be their burden later. She was truly unlucky.
Now their family was in such a state, even the increasingly lucky Chu Lan has been dragged down and became a suspect. Chu Xin was also accused of being cold-blooded toward his family. Their family was showing signs of decay, ah. T-This was all brought by the broom star, Chu Xiang!
The more Grandma Chu thought about it, the more angry she became, and the more she thought about it, the more frightened she was. An idea even formed in her mind. When they bring Chu Xiang back, they would quietly starve Chu Xiang to death after taking care of her for a while. Dead and clean, once for and for all. By then, the Chu family would never ever be unlucky again in the future.
Chu Xiang used the Qiankun Mirror to monitor the situation on the Chu family’s side clearly, and everything was in line with her plan. She planned according to the character of the Chu family. Most importantly, she must keep the ‘broom star’ label for a few days, and completely cut off her relationship with them.

In this day and age, a recommendation letter was required wherever people go. She couldn’t escape, and she couldn’t cultivate. She was just a weak woman, and if she were to go out to do something, she might be caught as a spy. After all, the original owner’s growth experience was transparent. If she was suddenly knowledgeable in other skills, that would be too difficult to explain. People were too sensitive in this era.
Moreover, in this kind of village, filial piety was over the sky, and sons were more important than daughters. Even if she was on the right, once the elders wept and caused a fuss, others would turn their heads and accuse her. Even if she was admitted to university, they could still go to her school to make trouble. By then, she couldn’t move an inch any longer. It would take at least a few more years for her to be free, and she didn’t want to wait that long.
Then the best way was for the Chu family to give her up voluntarily. She also thought of a way out. It was important to find a partner, and she just needed to confirm her partner again.
Li Yuezhen held vigil and didn’t fall asleep all night. When she saw that Chu Xiang’s condition was stable the next day, she proposed to take her home to the doctor as too much money was spent on her. Of course the doctor disagreed. It would take three days of observation to determine whether there was any danger, but Li Yuezhen and Chu Weiguo were both distressed for money and did not want to stay in the hospital any longer.
Just then, Chu Xiang’s heartbeat stopped, and the doctor rushed to resuscitate her. He returned after a long time, but his attitude towards Li Yuezhen and Chu Weiguo turned for the worse. “What’s wrong with the both of you? Did you intentionally let the patient die? In your situation, I’m going to report to the top…”

“No, no, no, save her. Of course, we’ll save her. Wasn’t she doing just fine earlier?”
“A lot of complications may arise at any time during the observation period. Otherwise, why don’t we observe the patient? She had a cardiac arrest just now. If she were in your home, it would have been too late to rescue her.”
“Okay, we understand. Observe her. We’ll stay in the hospital for observation.”
Chu Weiguo and Li Yuezhen faced the doctor with some inferiority and timidity of facing people in the city. With just a scolding, they wimped out. The total amount spent on resuscitation, hospitalization, and drugs amounted to a large sum. The two people were so worried that they could hardly think of how to deal with it. After a discussion, they both went home. They must discuss how to deal with this matter with the old lady at home.
When Grandma Chu heard that they spent all the money they brought, and owed Chu Shuang 300, and owed the captain 100, she almost passed away in anger!

Grandma Chu slapped Chu Weiguo on the back, and raged, “Has your brain been flooded? That fortune is enough for Chu Xin to get married! Yet you spent it on a vegetative person? Are you crazy?”
Chu Weiguo was also very regretful. He bowed his head and replied, “Mom, you didn’t know how urgent things were at that moment. Before I could respond, the doctor had used all the medicine. I could not refuse to pay the cost ah. And the captain… The captain has been staring at me. If we refused to save Chu Xiang, wouldn’t we be criticized behind our backs in the future?”
“That won’t work either! That’s so much money!” Grandma Chu slumped down on the bed clutching her heart, her vision blacking out.
But what could her heartache do? The money they owed to people had to be paid back. She cared most about face, so it was impossible for them not to repay the captain first. Her daughter had the same character as her, so she definitely wanted her money back. She took stock of the family’s savings, and almost all of it was spent out. Her heart was dripping blood. So on second thought, Chu Xiang was indeed a broom star. She again depleted her family of their fortune!

The fact that Chu Xiang was a broom star has taken root in the hearts of the Chu family, and they always took this attitude when they went out to talk to others. With one rumor, plus another, Chu Xiang as a bearer of ill luck has become an open secret in the brigade. Nobody dared to openly discuss it, and yet everyone wanted to gossip about it.
Occasionally, there were people who were not superstitious and disagreed. However, after being reminded of the series of unfortunate incidents of the Chu family in the past few months, they dared not express their opinions. Sometimes some things were just so metaphysical and mysterious that they couldn’t be explained.
Yang Yuelan inquired about Chu Xiang’s condition and went home. She sighed and said to Yin Xu, “That child is too unfortunate. She’s obviously a good seedling as a college student. How did she become comatose?”
Shou Hou’er carried Yin Xu onto the cart, rolled up his sleeves and pushed the cart out, “Auntie, didn’t the doctor say it’s possible for her to wake up? Maybe she will be fine in a few days. Don’t you believe in that bad luck stuff. It’s fake!”
Yang Yuelan took the prepared cloth bag, closed the door and said, “Yes, I don’t believe it. Hey, be careful, let’s walk slowly and don’t rush. Let’s go to the hospital today and have them check your leg properly.”
