Little Lucky Star of the 1970s: Uncle's Mountain Fortune

About the story

Three-and-a-half-year-old Suisui is heartlessly abandoned by her own mother at the village entrance on a snowy day. Only her uncle Lu Zheng, the bully everyone in the village avoids, ignores their mockery and carries the frozen little girl back to his drafty, dilapidated thatched hut. Little do they know that Suisui is a child blessed with extraordinary luck. When she goes up the mountain for firewood, wild pheasant eggs cover the ground; when she steps outside, a fat wild boar knocks itself unconscious at her feet. Even century-old ginseng deep in the mountains seems eager to leap into her arms. Guided by the little girl, her once penniless, rough-hewn uncle becomes the richest man in the village.
