The older girl looked about twelve or thirteen years old, and the clothes she was wearing were very small, with sleeves barely reaching her wrists.
The skin on his face was dry and cracked, and you could even see the bloodstains. His hands were also red, swollen and cracked from the cold, and his shoes even had two big holes, revealing two equally red and swollen toes.
In ancient times, at this age, many people would consider her to be ready to get married.
If the girl's mother doesn't improve, the little girl might very well be sold off by the grandmother.
