Chapter 220: Chapter 220: Head Caught in the Door
The guiltier she felt, the stronger Zhaodi’s hatred for Sun Lixia grew.
She had to get her revenge, but she couldn’t use such foolish methods anymore.
She needed to devise a plan that no one could trace back to her, one that would leave Sun Lixia suffering in silence.
So, she began to recall events from her past life to see if there was anything she could use and, indeed, something came to mind.
In her previous life, during the winter of that year, Sun Lixia was bitten on her toe by a rat while she slept.
She remembered it vividly because the incident occurred precisely on her eighth birthday, and it just so happened that she was born in the Year of the Rat.
Because of this, Sun Lixia forcibly implicated her, claiming her horoscope was bad, thus attracting rats to their house.
Such a nonsensical reason, yet her grandmother believed it!
From that point on, she became the least favored granddaughter of the old lady, and her days became increasingly miserable.
Nobody cared to think it through; every rural household stored grain, and rats were a common issue.
Moreover, rats were usually found in the barn where the grain was stored, so why would they be in Sun Lixia’s room?
It was only because she often sneaked snacks in her room and wasn’t clean, which attracted the rats.
Yet her third aunt had the audacity to pin the blame on an innocent child!
“Zhaodi, the kitchen’s water jar is empty; you must fill it before cooking,” Sun Lixia ordered Zhaodi the next day, hand on her waist and commanding imperiously.
“Oh.”
Compliantly, Zhaodi picked up the water bucket and walked to the front gate. Suddenly, she turned around and shouted loudly, “Third aunt, Immortal Grandpa says that bullying people like you do will be punished by the heavens!”
After shouting, she turned and ran off quickly with the bucket.
“You little brat, stop right there! I dare you to say that again! Hss—” Sun Lixia pursued furiously for a few steps but accidentally strained her back.
She didn’t take Zhaodi’s words seriously at all. If divine blessings were so readily available, she would have had a son long ago.
Nobody else paid any attention, including those from the second branch, who thought she was just a child trying to scare them by bringing up Immortals.
If Immortals really cared about such trifles, Sun Lixia would have been punished hundreds of times by now.
Yet, the day after Zhaodi spoke those words, Sun Lixia truly was bitten by a rat, nearly severing her little toe.
As they watched Sun Lixia applying medicine while wiping her tears, the Jiang family members simultaneously wondered if it was indeed a punishment from the Immortal.
Sun Lixia, however, was adamant in her disbelief—otherwise, wouldn’t it confirm that Zhaodi was truly blessed by an Immortal?
Considering the old lady was already biased towards the first branch, if she learned of Zhaodi’s divine protection, their branch would be utterly doomed.
No, she couldn’t let them succeed.
And as she had in her previous life, she blamed the incident on Zhaodi once again.
“Mom, I think I was bitten by a rat purely because Zhaodi has an unfortunate horoscope. Look, she was born in the Year of the Rat; she must have attracted them. Otherwise, how could I possibly have been bitten?”

Zhang Guihua, upon hearing this, didn’t immediately believe it as she had before, but instead felt that Zhaodi, being repeatedly guided by the old Immortal, must indeed be a fortunate child.
Thus, she glared at Sun Lixia and coldly reprimanded, “Nonsense, the rat didn’t get into your room because Zhaodi put it there!”
Sun Lixia’s eyes widened in disbelief; she couldn’t believe her mother-in-law had scolded her for the sake of a troublesome child!
Had she gone mad?
