A group of children dressed in tattered clothes, their faces dirty, their clothes patched and shiny with oil.
One by one, they hugged his legs and cried out that they were hungry and wanted to eat meat.
By the time he finished cooking the rice, before he could even put it on the table, they had already devoured it all around the stove.
Finally, with eyes gleaming green, it stared at the licked-clean stove and cried out that it was hungry...
The thought of that scene was terrifying to Leng Lie.
"Wife, stop talking, I really know I was wrong."
Don't worry, no matter how much trouble I encounter, I will endure it!
Leng Lie took her hand and kissed it.
