The stench spread along the riverside, and both the Bai and Feng families distanced themselves from the Liang family in disgust.
Mrs. Liang covered her nose and asked repeatedly, "What's going on? Why is the horse like this?"
The horse-watching boy answered stiffly, "Maybe there was something wrong with the fodder that the inn provided to the horses yesterday."
