My mother pressed the hot iron against my back.

The flesh sizzled with a hissing sound.

The pain was so intense that I lost my voice.

And at that moment, tears started flowing uncontrollably from the corner of my eyes.

My mother saw the water in the cauldron turning white, while the pig fat on my arm flowed down the cauldron wall into the water.

She smiled with satisfaction.

She mumbled and bowed to the ancestral tablet:

"Ancestors, show your divine power! This wild seed can finally produce daughter's fragrance!"

My mother stood up, then used the hot iron to burn me a few more times. Only when there were enough tears in the cauldron did she leave.

I watched my mother's figure, blood dripping from the corners of my eyes due to the pain.

The blood fell into the cauldron, mixing with the white pig fat ointment.

The next day.

A young man from the clan came to see if the water in the cauldron had dried up.

He saw that the cauldron was filled with creamy white ointment.

He hurriedly went to find the clan leader.

The clan leader smelled the scent on me and happily declared that the fragrance of a daughter had been achieved.

Therefore, the elders of the clan took out bamboo sticks and wrapped the ointment I made around them.

Each person took three sticks, lit them, and clasped their hands together.

Devoutly kneeling on the ground, they prayed to the ancestral tablet:

"May the ancestors bless me with a long life and abundant wealth through these three incense sticks!"

"May the ancestors bless my son to become a successful scholar next year!"

"May the ancestors bless my daughter-in-law to give birth to triplets in her first pregnancy!"

They were all seeking the blessings of their ancestors.

But no one considered that in order to use the fragrance I made, they needed to make requests of me to ensure their desires were fulfilled.

After the elders of the clan finished burning the incense, their complexion immediately improved.

Even the clan leader's white hair turned black.

They gained benefits and wanted more.

However, the first pot of ointment for making fragrance had already been used up.

The clan leader asked me to continue making ointment.

I didn't want to endure the burning pain anymore.

So, I clenched my mouth shut, refusing to cry and preventing the pig fat on my body from emitting any fragrance.

Until my second and third younger brothers, under my mother's command, used the heated iron to burn me.

"It hurts! It hurts!" I couldn't help but scream, veins bulging on my forehead from the pain.

While my second younger brother burned me with the iron, he cried, "Big sister, don't blame us! It's because you're a useless girl! If you were a boy like us, no one would bully you!"

At night, the clan leader once again smelled the fragrance on me.

The clan leader joyfully kept bowing and burning incense in the ancestral hall.

After making his vows, he not only spat at me but also used the incense to burn me, causing me to continuously shed tears.

The clan leader said, "The fragrance of a daughter is truly a treasure! Such a good fragrance of a daughter shouldn't be limited to our own use! I want you to give birth to more golden nuggets and produce more treasures!"

As he spoke, he lunged towards me!

I was filled with shock.

What else did the clan leader want to do!
