“Your family has quite a lot of kids.” Bowen curiously sized them up as he asked, “Aren’t you cold dressed like this outside?”

Zhang Wu smiled bitterly. “These are all the clothes we have.”

How could they not be cold? If Mu Yangling hadn’t woken them up, they might have already become corpses.

Zhang Wu and Zhang Liu were from the village where they stayed earlier. Their parents had died when they were very young. First, Zhang Wu’s parents passed away when he was six years old, after which he was raised by his uncle, Zhang Liu’s father. However, in just three years, Zhang Liu’s father died when he went out to do hard labor. Zhang Liu’s mother raised them for two years before committing suicide due to hardship when Zhang Liu was nine years old.

Therefore, the two brothers had always relied on each other. The villagers had helped them before, and they had also gone to the county to beg. They would pick up scraps during the autumn harvest and beg for a bowl of rice when they worked for others in the fields in spring. The two of them had managed to survive until today by living this way.

However, life was especially difficult this year. First, there was the drought in early summer. The grains harvested in the fields was not even enough to pay taxes, so the villagers naturally did not have any excess rations to support them.

The alms they received in the city also became less and less. On the day Mu Yangling entered the village, they had been starving and digging up the undead grass stems to eat.

Their faces were sallow. The two of them were thin and weak, but they looked old. It was all because of years of hard labor. Actually, Zhang Wu was only 18 years old this year, and Zhang Liu was only 16 years old. In Mu Yangling’s previous life, they would merely be two high school students. Yet, they had already experienced too much.

They only wanted to steal Mu Yangling’s sheep because they truly were at their wit’s end this time.

However, after watching for a day and a night, they still lacked the guts to make a move. They could not get over the hurdle in their hearts.

Zhang Wu had said that the two of them had been helped by many people along the way as they grew up. Although they didn’t know much, they knew right from wrong. Back then, when he was squatting behind the tree and his consciousness became more and more blurry, he’d felt that perhaps dying wasn’t so bad. At the very least, he wouldn’t do anything to embarrass his parents, uncle, and aunt.

When Zhang Wu said this, Zhang Liu lowered his head in shame. It was because he couldn’t stand the hunger that his cousin wanted to steal Mu Yangling’s sheep.
