Ganizhaozhao

Ganizhaozhao was a clever Tujia ethnic girl,who was sent to a rich to be a child bride.Her master asked her to work hard,but did not give her enough food.One day,when she went to the mountain to cut grass for cow,she felt very hungry.She saw a cherry tree by the sinkhole.When she climbed up the tree to pick cherries,her sickle fell into the sinkhole.Back to the home,her mother-in-law beat and scolded her.She was so angry that she hanged herself from a cherry tree.She turned into a black bird when she died.In the mid-night,the bird,hanging its feet on the branches of the trees,kept crying incessantly to retell her misery.(https://www.daowen.com)
