Transmigrated & Triumphant: Defying Destiny's Chosen One-Chapter 522 - 52: The Girl is Useless

"Why do you think you’re worth more than a girl?"

Chu He looked at him curiously and asked seriously.

Liu Jia Bao was taken aback for a moment—wasn’t it obvious? He puffed up his chest and replied, "Because I have a little pee-pee and they don’t!"

Chu River glanced down, noticing that the dirty pair of shorts looked beyond hope of cleaning. She nodded earnestly, as if accepting this answer.

In the next moment.

"Come here, Da Dan."

She pulled a pair of scissors out of Daya’s sewing basket nearby: "This kid Liu Jia Bao is unreliable, always playing and causing trouble. What if he accidentally hurts his precious thing?"

She sighed deeply again: "By then, he won’t be the most treasured golden grandson."

"Come, you go help cut it off and keep it safe. That way, Liu Jia Bao won’t have to worry so much while playing."

Daya quickly raised her hand: "Aunt, I’m good with scissors!"

In the Old Chu Family, a girl could mean a loss of life! She would never forget how her fourth uncle and aunt secretly plotted to sell her blood!

Her gaze was lethal, cold light glinting off her scissors!

And Liu Jia Bao thought to himself: I wasn’t careful at all, was I?

I even competed with others to see who could pee the farthest!

But seeing Daya coming over with the scissors snipping, he instinctively clenched his legs together:

"Teacher Xiao Chu, you, you can’t cut it off!"

Why not?

Chu River asked him: "You said you’re treasured because you have a little pee-pee, unlike them. But look, every day you’re either wrestling or fighting. It’s really not safe on you. Cut it off, and save it; it’s safer."

In a kindly and persuasive manner, touching and warm.

For a moment, Liu Jia Bao almost seemed convinced.

But the gleaming cold light on the scissors pricked his eyes, and he screamed frantically: "No, I don’t want it! It will bleed..."

Chu River reassured: "Don’t worry, keep it safe, it’s still yours..."

Liu Jia Bao shook his head even more: "I don’t want it! I don’t want it! If I lose my precious, I’ll turn into a girl!"

Just like his three sisters, who had to work all the time, with no food, no new clothes, and no friends.

He darted east and west, trying to escape Daya’s scissors.

...

"What’s so bad about being a girl?"

Seeing his fierce resistance, Chu River was curious.

What’s bad about it?

Everything’s bad about it!

Liu Jia Bao counted on his fingers:

"Girls are a losing deal. As a girl, you not only have to work every day from dawn to dusk, but if you do it wrong, you get beaten and scolded by grandma and mom."

"At mealtime, you’re not allowed to touch eggs or meat, just porridge with coarse bread... And you have to know how to do laundry and take care of me. If I’m unhappy, they get beaten."

After counting, Liu Jia Bao added:

"Girls can’t even go to school."

"My grandma said that no matter how well a losing deal learns, it’s benefiting someone else’s family, and our family’s future depends entirely on me having children to carry on the family line, to glorify the ancestors!"

Chu River looked at him sympathetically: "Poor you, in the future, you must carry on the family line and glorify the ancestors... That’s such a daunting task. Look, not one of our kids dares to take it." 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

Liu Jia Bao: ...

He looked bewildered at a few of his friends around him, only to see them all looking at him sympathetically. This left a lingering doubt in his young heart—

Yes, is his task... really too daunting?

Why must it be him, and not his sister?

Liu Jia Bao sniffled: "You don’t understand, I’m the golden grandson, I’m the most treasured! If I don’t want to carry on the family line, my grandma would definitely let my sisters do it!"

That surely is a tiring job.

"That’s not necessarily true."

Gu Ping snorted coldly: "We’re struggling to get enough to eat every day. When we grow old, why would they have to listen to you? If your sisters don’t carry on the family line, what can you do about it?"

The little boy had suffered enough, and his spirit of resistance was always strong.

So, though he understood the topic only half, the moment he thought of his relatives, he quickly had an answer.

Liu Jia Bao: ...

Yes indeed.

His sisters really were like that, what would happen if they refused to do it then?

The little golden grandson felt a creeping fear inside.

But shortly after, he toughened up again: "They’re afraid of my grandma; they’ll surely listen!"

"That’s not necessarily true."

Daya sneered: "We’re small now and can’t beat the adults. After another ten years, when your grandma’s old and your sisters are grown, can they still not win?"

Liu Jia Bao: !!!

He suddenly remembered his eldest sister, chopping firewood late at night with an axe, wielding it with alarming strength!
