A domineering country girl flirts with her son, and Commander Huo can't resist.

Qiao An didn't say a word more. "Grandma Dai, I want you to analyze Huo Fang's birth chart. Tell her that she has a curse in her destiny, that with her around, the family will not have any more children. It would be best to add another one: that she will bring misfortune to her father and mother."

Dai Youfeng paused in her meditation, looking up at Qiao An.

"Do you know what will happen to Huo Fang after this comment is made?"

The Huo family has been in turmoil lately, and she knows that Huo Fang is now living in Qiao An's house.

"This is the result I want. I want Huo Fang's name to be on our family's household registration."

Joanne pushed the snack box forward a little. "I'd appreciate it if Grandma Dai could help me."

Dai Youfeng's withered lips slowly curled up to both sides. "You're really interesting. Your second aunt is more like a mother than your own mother."

"I'll help you with this. It's a tough world these days, but it's hard being a woman. I'll lend a hand if I can."

"Thank you, Grandma Dai. Thank you for your help."

Holding Dai Youfeng's fortune-telling slip, Qiao An, along with Huo Jiyun and Huo Fang, stormed angrily to the Huo family home.

Shen Xiufang stayed at her parents' home until the third day of the Lunar New Year. Deng Yufen couldn't stand the gossip from the neighbors any longer, so she sent her back home early on the fourth day.

She was gathering firewood in the yard when she heard Qiao An's voice. She turned around and saw her grabbing Huo Fang by the collar and pulling her inside.

"You, Shen Xiufang! No wonder you wanted to kill Huo Fang! So that's why!"

After saying that, Qiao An threw the note written by Dai Youfeng in her face.

Shen Xiufang could read. When she picked it up and looked at it, her face turned frighteningly pale.

She was very familiar with the eight characters on it; wasn't that Huo Fang's birthday?

Upon seeing the words below, Shen Xiufang instinctively clutched her stomach.

"What...what is this?"

"Are you blind? Can't you see for yourself?" Qiao An shoved Huo Fang away.

"If I hadn't brought the children's birth dates to Grandma Dai's reading today, I would have known that Huo Fang was a cursed loner!"

"With her around, there's no chance of another baby in the family. You killed her just to make room for this one in your belly, didn't you?"

"I can't keep this cursed loner around. I've been raising this child for over a month, and now I'm returning him to you!"

Shen Xiufang already disliked Huo Fang, and seeing the birth chart personally interpreted by Dai Youfeng made her even more apprehensive.

Her belly was already showing; Dai Youfeng had calculated it before and said she was having a boy.

If Huo Fang is really as written on this paper, then she absolutely cannot stay in the Huo family.

The main door of the house was opened from the inside.

Liu Huying and Huo Shoutian came out, and Huo Jifeng also came over upon hearing the noise.

"What does it say here?" Liu Huying couldn't read.

Huo Jifeng turned pale after reading the note.

"Mom, this is the birth chart that Grandma Dai gave Huo Fang."

"They said...that Huo Fang is a cursed star, that having her in the house means no more children will be born, and that she brings bad luck to her parents and relatives."

"What?" Liu Huying's eyes widened, but she quickly realized something was wrong.

"But weren't Huo Dong, Huo Jie, and their children all born after Huo Fang?"

Huo Jifeng's expression didn't change much after hearing this.

"Mom, Grandma Dai wrote it down specifically, saying that she is a pure Yin spirit and that it will only manifest after she turns 12."

Dai Youfeng's fortune-telling based on birth dates and times has always been very accurate, and everyone in the village believes in her.

"What...what should we do?" Liu Huying looked at Shen Xiufang's stomach. "Xiufang is pregnant!"

Qiao An feigned anger, "You dare to steal the money of a cursed lone wolf? Aren't you afraid your belly fat will fall out?"

Shen Xiufang looked panicked and quickly took out ten yuan from her pocket and stuffed it into Huo Fang's hand.

"Go, go, go!! Hurry up and leave! You're not a daughter!"

"Qiao An, you were the one who said you'd take Huo Fang away, and so many people saw it! Huo Fang and I have severed all mother-daughter ties, so don't even think about trying to force her into our house!"

"Pah! Everyone knows Huo Fang is your daughter! Why should I raise your child?"

Huo Jiyun also spoke up for Qiao An, "Sister-in-law, our family wants to have children in the future, so please don't get us into trouble."

Shen Xiufang was so anxious she was jumping up and down. She pulled Huo Jifeng over, "Say something! Do you want to die without an heir?"

Huo Jifeng was already tongue-tied, and when he got anxious, he would stutter.

"I...you...you take this child away, we don't want him."

"No way! Whoever gave birth to the child should raise it!" Joan retorted defiantly.

Liu Huying and Huo Shoutian pulled Huo Jiyun aside.

"Second brother, look, your family already has two children, aren't you afraid of your line ending? Your eldest brother is different, he has no sons!"

"You have to think about your older brother. Can you bear to see him die without an heir? Without a son in his entire life?"

"Huo Fang is a good-natured child, at least. Why don't you raise her for another two years, then just find someone to marry her off to, and that'll be the end of it?"

"She'll definitely remember your kindness then, and when you're old, she can take care of you. Wouldn't that be wonderful!"

The two of them chatted back and forth, seemingly still thinking about Huo Jiyun's well-being.

Huo Jiyun's face was gloomy. He did not expect that in the eyes of these people, Huo Fang's life could be arranged so casually, as if she were just an insignificant puppet.

Standing in the center of the courtyard, Huo Fang looked like a frightened little animal, her eyes filled with panic, unsure of what to do.

"In any case, Huo Fang cannot stay in the Huo family, absolutely not!"

Shen Xiufang clutched her stomach and suddenly felt a sharp pain in her lower abdomen.

"Ouch! My stomach hurts! Oh no! It must be that brat Huo Fang's doing, get her out of here!"

"Huo Jifeng! What are you standing there for! Throw her out right now! Don't you want a son anymore?!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Jiyun gritted his teeth and dragged Huo Fang toward the main gate.

"Dad..." Huo Fang called out.

"Huo Fang, don't blame us. You can only blame your bad luck. Not only are you a money-losing girl, but you're also a cursed star. If we had known, we should have thrown you into the river to drown you right after you were born."

Huo Jifeng is almost forty years old, and he dreams of having a son.

So even though Huo Fang was his biological daughter, he couldn't care less at this moment.

Huo Jifeng threw Huo Fang out the door, and Huo Jiyun, who was quick-witted and agile, caught her just in time.

Joan was also kicked out of the gate by them.

She muttered curses under her breath, "Fine! You guys are really heartless."

"What's the use of kicking Huo Fang out? Her name is still on your family register, she'll still be a thorn in your side!"

After saying that, Qiao An snorted coldly and turned to leave.

Huo Jiyun and Huo Fang quickly followed.

They ran home in a hurry.

Huo Jiyun, who was at the back, closed the door, and the expressions of the three people immediately relaxed.

"Fangfang, did I choke you when I pulled your collar just now?" Qiao An looked closely at Huo Fang's neck.

Huo Fang chuckled, "No, no, Second Aunt, you're holding back."

"Fangfang, don't take this 'lone star' thing to heart. It's all made up by your second aunt and Grandma Dai. If they hadn't said that, your parents probably wouldn't have let him go."

Huo Fang nodded understandingly, "I know, my second aunt and uncle are doing this for my own good."

"There will definitely be rumors about you in the village soon, just ignore them. Once you leave with the army, you'll never come back, and these people will never have anything to do with you again, so don't pay attention to what others say, understand?"
