This small shop supplied the daily needs of several nearby villages. It was almost seven in the evening. There were no street lights in the mountains, and the road was rugged. It took more than an hour to walk from here to the shop, and another hour to come back.
Chu Yuan was obviously not willing to go to the store now.
"Er... Big Niece, how about this? I'll give you money, and you share some food with me, okay? I've been exhausted the whole afternoon, and my body is almost worn out," Chu Yuan touched his belly and smiled sheepishly.
If he had been in M City, he would not have suffered like this. Chu Yuan did not expect that, one day, he would have to starve and beg for food after doing manual labor.
It was not realistic for him to go out to buy anything now. He grew up in the mountains. Although it had been decades ago, it was very dangerous to walk on the mountain roads at night. Besides, at this time, the shop would have been closed.
