You can't even see his mouth moving. He looks like a messenger from hell, "Niu~Boss~"

The boss responded reflexively, "Hey~"

Then he covered his mouth. Why did he agree to this? He didn't know this person. How did he know his name? What did he want to do? The sweat on his forehead immediately flowed down.

The man sneered, and it was like fingernails scratching a rusty iron door, making the boss's scalp numb.

"I'm not the person you're talking about, and I don't know you. You just said Boss Niu, right?"

"If that's right, then I heard it wrong. I'm leaving now."

He stood up trembling, and was about to run away with all his might, but the way home would always require him to pass by that person, so he closed his eyes, gritted his teeth, and rushed past him.

Unexpectedly, the man was so strong that he picked up the boss by the collar like a chicken.

The feeling of being lifted up was very uncomfortable and it was difficult to breathe. After a while, I began to roll my eyes and kick my legs wildly. I used all my strength and grabbed the collar with both hands before I could catch my breath.

The clothes on the eldest brother were not sturdy. He had worn them for several years and had patches piled up on top of each other. Such clothes naturally could not withstand strong pulling, let alone the weight of an adult.

With a rustling sound, the clothes broke into pieces and the person fell out.

He fell to the ground, holding his legs, screaming in pain. He glanced at him cautiously. The mask on his face revealed two cold eyes, and he felt like he was falling into an icy cave.

As if he sensed the other person's impatience, he kept his mouth tightly shut, not daring to make a sound even though it was painful.

The man squatted down, leaned closer, and asked in his ear, "Tell me again, are you Boss Niu?"

"If you tell a lie, I'll cut off your tongue and eat it with wine."

Boss Niu was in a dilemma. If he said yes, then nothing good would be waiting for him. If he said no, he heard that if he lost his tongue, he would die. Otherwise, how could someone bite his tongue to commit suicide?

After thinking it over, I decided to tell the truth. The other party's patience seemed to be running out, so he took out a sharp dagger and played with it.

The clouds dispersed, and the reflection of the dagger pierced the boss's eyes. He picked up a lock of hair and cut it with the dagger, and the neatly cut end appeared before his eyes.

He was not going to use this dagger to cut his tongue, so he quickly covered his mouth and said in a muffled voice, “I am Boss Niu, I am.”

Tears and sweat flowed together, and it was difficult to tell them apart.

"It's all true. You won't cut my tongue off, will you?"

Her eyes widened as she stared at his movements in horror.

The dagger was put away, and the man stood up and tapped the person sitting on the ground a few times.

The boss found himself unable to move or speak, and could only make humming sounds.

A flurry of punches and kicks, as dense as raindrops, landed on his body.

Soon he rolled his eyes, vomited blood, and fainted.

Seeing that the person didn't react, he kicked him a few more times and then left.

It was just a little strange that he didn't take away the eleven taels of silver, but just knocked the man unconscious.

The third brother’s dinner was ready. Thick corn porridge served with wild vegetable pancakes with eggs. The family of four sat around the table and ate with big mouthfuls.

I heard a faint barking sound outside the door. At first I didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was someone's dog that had escaped.

The more Nier listened, the more she felt something was wrong. The sound did not seem to be made by an adult dog. Who would let such a small dog out in the middle of the night?

Others also heard the sound. Niu Li ran out the door first and saw a puppy whose eyes had not yet opened not far away.

There is blood on the body, could the baby be a newborn?

Nier looked at the little thing in her brother's hand, feeling half happy and half worried about whether he could keep it alive.

If I could raise it, I would have a dog at home. A few days ago I was thinking about where to get one, and today one was delivered to my door.

It was shivering in Niu Li's hands. It must be cold. "Let's take it into the house and warm it up. It looks like it's almost frozen."

After listening to my sister, I heated up the stove, made a nest with hay, and put the puppy on it, close to the stove. The puppy finally stopped shivering and soon fell asleep with its legs spread out.

Nier looked around but couldn't find out who put it here. She didn't know whether it was put there by a person or a female dog that had just given birth. Forget it, she hurried back to see the poor little thing.

The family of four gathered around the baby, who was lying in the shape of a big character, smacking his lips in his sleep. Sometimes his hind legs twitched, and no one knew what he was dreaming about, or whether he was drinking milk in his dream.

No one in my family has ever raised such a small dog, so I don't know where to start. Usually, it feeds on its mother dog's milk for a few months, and will only be given away when it grows big enough to eat leftovers. What should I do now?

"It's really pretty, with a pink and tender mouth."

Nier stared at it for a while, resisting the urge to touch it for fear of waking it up.

But when it wakes up, it will definitely need to eat something, and there is nothing for it to eat at home, which is really worrying.

Swallow suddenly thought of some families who had no milk after giving birth, so they gave their children rice soup, and the children grew up well. The puppy should be able to drink it too.

"Why don't we feed it the rice soup?"

The third brother was thinking of going door to door tomorrow to ask if there were any female dogs that had just given birth. If there were, he would let them stay at a neighbor's house to raise for a few months.

It would be terrible if I didn't have it, but after hearing what Yan Zi said, I felt a little hopeful. I shouldn't starve to death.

Several people immediately scooped out a small bowl of rice soup from the pot, but how to feed the baby was also a problem. The baby was so young, could he drink the rice soup by himself? He probably couldn't.

Niu Li thought, if it didn't know how to do it, he would feed it himself with a spoon.

While the puppy was still sleeping, the four of them finished their meal and prepared to make soy milk. The noise from their busy work in the kitchen finally woke it up.

The chickens and donkeys at home are raised with ox power, and the dog will definitely be no exception.

Put the bowl on the ground. The little thing can't crawl yet and can't see with its eyes closed, but it must have smelled something and kept barking in the direction of the bowl.

I picked up the puppy and put it above the bowl to see if it could eat by itself. After licking it for a long time, the rice soup in the bowl didn't seem to be reduced. So I simply picked up a spoon and fed it rice soup one spoonful at a time. Sure enough, it stopped barking.

Pinching its pink little feet, touching its round belly, and watching it stick out its tongue, I really don’t want to put it down.

Niu Li raised his head and looked at the others, "What do you think we should name it?"

Nier thought for a moment and said, "Cats bring wealth and dogs bring prosperity. They are both related to money, so I'll just call him Yuanbao."

Niu Li almost thought that his sister was going to name the dog Fugui, because that would be the same name as his cousin. If grandma knew about it, she would make a fuss three times a day.

Holding the puppy in his arms, he rocked it gently like he was coaxing a child to sleep, "From now on, your name will be Yuanbao, Yuanbao."

"Wang~"
