The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm

I couldn't help but laugh out loud. A shoe could make her so happy.

Suddenly I felt a little sad. I guess Fugui and Ni'er would not be so happy for a pair of straw sandals.

Jin Shui heard her sister's laughter and turned around quickly. "These shoes are really beautiful. I like them very much. The craftsmanship is really good."

When Xiuli was making straw sandals for others, she never heard any praise. It seemed like it was a natural thing to do. Besides, people had other shoes to wear, so why would they wear straw sandals?

Some are interesting for two days, while others are not even looked at, and after that, we basically stop making straw sandals for them.

Seeing Jinshui's reaction and hearing her words, a warm feeling surged in my heart. It turns out that being praised by others is not a difficult or luxurious thing.

"Then try it on quickly."

Jinshui shook his head.

Xiu Li asked in confusion, "Don't you like it? Why don't you wear it?"

I hugged the shoes tightly as if I were holding a rare treasure.

"Wait until I wash my feet before putting them on. What if they get dirty?"

Xiuli sighed. It was just a pair of straw sandals, something that others looked down upon, but her sister treasured it so much.

"Hey, these are straw sandals. If they get dirty, just rinse them with water and they will be clean. Put them on quickly. Let's find some water and wash them."

"If you go back like this now, I don't know how much you will be scolded."

Jinshui touched the shoes with his hand. There was no rough edge at all. It was great. His sister was right. He had to put them on and go find water. He had to clean the mud off his body, otherwise those people would say some nasty things to him.

When I put my feet into the shoes, they were the perfect size, with the right softness and hardness. There was nothing more comfortable than this.

He lifted his foot, and said in amazement, "Look, sister, how beautiful it is."

Xiuli also thought they looked nice. Although they were straw sandals, they did make her look very delicate when she wore them.

"Step on the ground and see if it squeezes your feet."

"Ah."

Jinshui gently placed his feet on the ground. At first he didn't have the heart to step on it, so he took a deep breath and finally got ready and stepped firmly on the ground.

Why do they fit my feet so well? They don’t feel like a new pair of shoes that need to be broken in at all. It’s as if these feet were made for these shoes.

He jumped up and down on the spot. "Haha, sis, look, I have new shoes. They're really comfortable to wear."

Jinshui's hair was messy, his clothes were dirty, his body and face were covered with dried mud, and his neat little white teeth were exposed, which was really conspicuous.

Xiu Li was amused by her sister's happy look, "Let's go."

Bury the wolf, make sure no one finds it, and start looking for water.

Nier and Niu Li are in the tent at the moment.

The third child woke up before the time came, fearing that the two children were sleepy. They were in the period of growth, so how could he disturb their sleep?

Originally, Ni'er and Niu Li wanted Dad to go and rest for a while, but they couldn't stand his nagging and had to replace him.

The tent was indeed warm, keeping out the cold outside. The clean scent of soapberries on my mother's body mixed with the smell of snake repellent was very reassuring.

I have already told dad to sprinkle a handful of medicine every once in a while to prevent it from becoming ineffective.

Daddy always does things prudently, so the two of them lay down peacefully and fell asleep.

The third brother was alone outside the tent, looking at the pale sky, and seemed to hear some sounds.

He immediately became alert and looked towards the source of the sound.

It seems that two figures are coming towards this side. Why are there people walking around at this time? Shouldn't they be resting? I stood up and picked up the wooden stick beside me, just in case.

Nier was right. If people saw that I had food, drinks and a tent to live in, they might have bad intentions.

The footsteps were getting closer and closer. The third brother stared at that direction. A child with mud all over his face came out. If Xiu Li hadn't been standing next to him, it would have been impossible to tell that this was Jin Shui.

When I walked over here, I vaguely saw a flame. Maybe I could get some hot water there. But I was so cold and hungry that I could hardly walk.

Suddenly my eyes lit up, and it turned out to be someone I knew.

"Third uncle~"

The two of them felt mixed emotions. They didn't expect that the scene they met again would be like this. They wanted to ask Uncle San for some water, but wondered if he could give it to them.

The third brother stepped forward and took a closer look, and it was indeed Jinshui.

"Why are you here? How did you do this?"

The mud on Jinshui's face had completely dried, and his face hurt every time he moved his mouth, as if his skin was being torn off. Xiuli took over the conversation.

"We sneaked out in the middle of the night to find a place to relieve ourselves, but we fell into a mud pit. We thought we could find some water to wash our faces, but we didn't expect to run into Uncle San."

The third child felt that the two children were truly pitiful. Their parents’ affairs had nothing to do with them; after all, they were related by blood. It was heartbreaking to see them like this.

He stretched out his finger and pointed in a direction.

"There is a spring over there. Go there. I am on night watch here and cannot leave. Go and wash yourself."

It will be much easier if someone points you in the right direction, instead of searching around like a headless fly.

After expressing their thanks, the two walked towards the spring.

"Did you see that? Uncle San and his friends actually have a tent."

"I'm not blind, how can I not see such a big thing?"

"It must be very comfortable to live there. We can only bear it and freeze to death if we can't."

"Who says it isn't? And it seems to have a faint smell of meat."

"You have a dog's nose, your sense of smell is so sharp, but I didn't smell it. Maybe you are crazy about eating meat."

"No way, it really tastes like meat. Their family can actually eat meat now, they must have made a lot of money."

"Yeah, when will our family have some money? We can eat less meat instead of that much."

"Don't even think about it. First of all, our family doesn't have money. Even if we did, we wouldn't buy meat for us to eat."

"You're right. I was thinking that after we sell the wolf, we can go to town and buy some meat. This money was earned with our lives, so we can't give it to anyone else."

"You're right. I wonder how much money I can get. I haven't eaten meat for a long time. I can't help drooling now."

Xiuli sucked the saliva that had already flowed to the corners of her mouth, as if she had already eaten meat.

"But the town is so far away that we have to take a bullock cart. If someone finds out that we are riding a bullock cart, someone with a big mouth will definitely tell grandma."

"Then we won't sit down. We do so much work and walk such a long way every day. Why should we be afraid of the distance to the town? For the sake of eating meat, this little hardship is nothing."

"That's true, but I'm afraid that when I get the money, I won't be able to afford to buy meat."

"Then let's make a deal. The first thing we do after we get the money is to go to town and eat meat. No regrets allowed."

"Okay, I promise you."

Finally they arrived at the spring. Regardless of the icy temperature of the water, they washed their hands first, then took several gulps of the water. Finally, their thirst was quenched and they were full of water.

Jinshui washed his face clean, revealing a small face with a few freckles and a yellowish color due to malnutrition.
