She has no father or mother. Aunt Seven has always told her this sentence since she was a child. Aunt Seven is the one who brought her up.
"Then how did I get out?"
"Just like that one, here, look..." Dou Yacai looked in the direction pointed by Aunt Seven, and a chick just hatched from the egg.
From that day on, Dou Yacai had a special affection for hens. She felt that chickens were the closest thing to her in the world. Therefore, when someone wanted to kill a chicken, she would put down everything in her hand.
She ran over to explain the facts to the person and asked them piously to let the chicken live. However, her prayers often ended with the sound of a knife scraping the chicken's neck mixed with the chicken's scream before it died.
"Actually, you have a father and a mother." One day, Uncle Six told her mysteriously.
Uncle Six has liked Aunt Seven for many years, but Aunt Seven was all focused on Dou Yacai and the only pig in the family, and had no time to pay attention to him.
She immediately widened her already big eyes, which looked quite scary on her already thin face. Uncle Liu who took the initiative to tell the secret was startled, thinking that Dou Yacai heard this.
She was so excited that she almost breathed her last. When she looked closely again and found that her eyes were gleaming with excitement, a stone in her heart fell to the ground.
"Your father is an official, and your mother is a famous... person on the Qinhuai River, the kind who serves others. One day your father got drunk, and you were born."
"Where's my mother?"
"ah?"
"Daddy was drunk and I was alone. Where did my mother go?"
"...Ahem, after all, you have a father and a mother, but before you were born, your mother was kicked out by your father and his wife. She ran away after you were born, and you stayed in our town.
, your father may not know you exist, and your mother may be dead now, very sad."
"Oh..." Dou Yacai lowered his head and counted the ants on the ground.
"Men are not good things. Don't touch them. If you touch them, you will die." After a while, Dou Yacai said this sentence. This was the first truth in life that she summed up when she heard about her life experience.
Uncle Six's face turned red when he heard this and he almost choked on his saliva.
As for you, when you see danger, run away. Don't join in to watch the excitement, and don't pick up random things. Animals can be picked up, and you can eat them if you kill them. As for people, don't pick them up, because this will eat up a lot of food in the house.
If you run out of food, you will starve to death. This is the second thing Aunt Seven has told her since she was a child.
"Remember?"
"Remember." She remembered Aunt Seventh's words quite firmly.
"Okay, let's go to the mountain and chop some dry firewood and come back."
"OK."
"Come back early and use firewood to cook pig food."
"OK."
At the age of ten, she foolishly went up the mountain to chop wood with a hatchet on her back.
This is the epitome of the entire life of Dou Yacai, who was the daughter of the Taiwei Lord Dou Jiang and the prostitute Caiyi.
In fact, Dou Yacai was not called Dou Yacai. She was originally called Dou Yacai. The name was thought up by her little educated prostitute after racking her brains. Some people even suspected that she died from overthinking after giving birth. But Aunt Seven
My ears were not working well, so I heard Dou Yacai's name as Dou Yacai, so she was always called Dou Yacai. The name that her mother Caiyi spent a lot of time and energy to come up with was only used.
Once upon a time, it was Caiyi’s call to her daughter before she died:
"Dou Yajie, when your father comes, help me ask his mother how she is."
