Erniu smelled the smell, swallowed his saliva, but spoke loudly, as if a louder voice would make him more credible.
Sanni sensed something and gave half of her share to him, and then there was a long silence.
The three of them snuggled up to each other for warmth in the flickering firelight, while the cold spring breeze kept blowing on the dilapidated land temple.
The dilapidated statue was unable to take care of the child in front of it.
But they also gave up their house to provide them with a place to shelter from the wind and rain.
"Sanni, I earned more than 300 copper coins today. We already have more than one tael of silver. As long as we get two taels, we can show Sibao his legs."
Erniu said excitedly, and then took out all the copper coins hidden behind the statue and counted them carefully again.
Because they were counted so many times, the copper coins became a little smooth, and then they were hidden again.
In order to avoid being discovered, he even stuffed it hard into the hollow statue.
Upon closer inspection, Sibao's legs seemed to be bent, as if they had been broken. Without proper treatment, he was unable to walk at all.
But at this time they were full of hope. They just needed to save enough money to cure Sibao's leg.
This is their only hope, that as they grow up, their lives will get better and better.
But it seems that fate always likes to play jokes. In this place without rules, anything can happen.
Having no power is a sin. A gangster walked over slowly, holding a wooden stick with an iron ring in his hand.
He had a dagger on his waist, so he naturally couldn't afford a sword or a long knife, or even if he had the money, it had already been spent by the person in front of him.
Whether it was a casino, a brothel or a tavern, they could all leave him penniless.
"Wang Wu, what are you doing here?" Erniu saw the man in front of him, picked up the prepared wooden stick, crouched down, and prepared for a fight. He protected Sanni and Sibao behind him and shouted loudly.
But the voice was a little trembling.
"Huh? Still want to resist? I heard today that you stole a big fat sheep. Where's the money?" Wang Wu was not polite either. He patted the weapon in his hand, licked his lips and said viciously.
"I've eaten them all. No more." Erniu panted heavily, like a wolf. Even if he died, he would bite the man in front of him.
In other words, in such a place, where the law cannot reach, there is a bottom-level enemy with no rules at all.
Fighting hard is his only option.
