Jinbao Marries a Wife

Xiao Hu Wang Erhu had really suffered that time.zIsJBMpIkZJNwlwmPXNatVFHnkhAQV

bzzrTpztUNhgVUp

That damn dog hole, with his thin frame and ribs barely covered by skin, had made it extremely difficult for him to move. He was practically wriggling inch by inch with both hands and feet. The hole hadn’t been used in who knows how long; the stench inside had nearly knocked him out a few times. Overcome with frustration, he had lied flat to catch his breath, then struggled to turn around and crawl forward again.AJsMDXhDHjPiYxSYdPpCbHfVlzWPDI

UxWBESLvVIweVDD

He had mentally given up several times already, but being an honest child who never lied or schemed, he didn’t know how to explain to his eagerly waiting friends outside if he turned back without reaching the end. Moreover, if Dawei had found out he had lied, he would have received a severe beating; Dawei’s fists were heavy, and just thinking about it made him shiver.jeuOGxLCDMQtiApAgVPoeZNKYVzveu

So he kept crawling despite the discomfort.MYOltltlmjLwqLiSrjxdqcImTEtCwH

uxtCYuraAzmPzJv

The process felt less like crawling through a dog hole and more like navigating a tunnel with twists and turns. Who had a dog smart enough to dig such a thing? After crawling for what felt like forever, making little progress, he felt trapped in endless darkness, unable to see any light.LpKVaDVipLfqyMpwzRfvtpFqvIFvLc

He wasn’t usually scared of things—cockroaches and mice were just toys to him, and while other kids cried at tales of mountain demons, he listened with interest. Normally, he would never admit to being scared.uVEZDeRAcmtWbHwxRQvTdJgaDVclYT

flSByOTWhqZOmlY

But this never-ending tunnel with no visible end had made him increasingly fearful. He started to think irrationally, fearing he might never find his way back, that even if he turned around, he couldn’t return to where he was. Moving forward seemed impossible, and he might die trapped there forever.cIOXkfmrUHrWvErQCgmoHCxBIxbrgA

jcDwbRmrHZEQngV

As his fear escalated, Xiao Hu Wang Erhu had started crying and crawling, cursing Dawei’s ancestors. Just when he was on the brink of despair, light had finally appeared ahead. His eyes, unaccustomed to the light, had hesitated for a moment before realizing it was indeed light. Overjoyed, he had hurried towards it.KtbOIJmOfEwTqzBpIKYlOmPTvuIpNx

Taking in the first breath of fresh air, he had been moved to tears, amazed by how beautiful his world could be.waAjYFQbehjjYJHcmbAiHcRlcixWDJ

Before him was a garden so vast it seemed endless, filled with beautiful flowers he had never seen, in colors so vivid they were dazzling. His eyes could hardly keep up.JoRozGEbvbZpRuXLIdDvDBAfvonHic

Looking further, he had noticed there was no gold on the eaves of the mansion, and the ground wasn’t paved with silver. Disappointed that it didn’t match his imagination, he was still excited to have discovered something others didn’t know about and looked forward to boasting about it.ZMYlvnUOLFtmPIjNgJxYPwtYJvkQmh

bqUMVigsNbsFzNn

Seeing no one around, he had grown bolder and forgotten where he was. He crawled around for a while, thinking of finding something to prove he had been there, feeling that if he could bring back something, he would really be able to show off.inJpbEMaCFySNiWRxefXKgUwqXoJtK

Just as he was inching his way out, a shadow had appeared before him. He looked up in shock and saw a pair of exquisitely crafted little shoes with golden threads, and above them, a black skirt with cloud patterns. Further up was a… beautiful child who looked like a little fairy.WaUaXJnKSQrUistiqPqFsLEBCAOrwb

The little fairy, hands on hips, had a fierce expression and held a thick black wooden stick. Looking down from above, she had asked, “Who are you?”tGJjuQrTvUUAJFaLDNsnYZIqyBpjwo

Wang Erhu had been drenched in a bucket of cold water and had shivered uncontrollably. As he slowly opened his eyes, he had immediately tried to get up, only to find himself dragged out of the hole, bound tightly with his feet tied to a large rock and his hands bound together, unable to move.yAlmmcXoSXYsNXtIhebWsQmIRWZnYY

Terrified, he had turned his head and seen the little fairy sitting on a polished rock nearby, holding the stick that had knocked him out.vKSIURTQakJMiphuZaDzIWumwafGWR

“Really not. My mother said I must never do sneaky things that make people look down on me. I didn’t know I could come in. I’m just here to see what’s inside.

The little fairy circled around him and finally frowned. “You’re so dirty and smelly. I’ve already poured two buckets of water on you.”iztNLfgUhDUnqxyridSNkuladIQzDd

The little boy sniffed his sleeve and said in confusion, “It doesn’t smell. I took a bath just the day before yesterday. My clothes are dirty from crawling through the hole.” He felt quite aggrieved. His current appearance was indeed quite appalling. His hair was full of mud and grass, his face covered in mud spots, making it nearly impossible to recognize his original features. The dirt and water mixed into a muddy mess, making him look as if he had been pulled out of a pit.YtBUpWWxJCvqACjIgtAxjXzpGRuqsu

Wang Erhu was terrified, tears welling up in his eyes. He couldn’t understand why someone his age spoke so frighteningly. Even when Dawei was angry, he only threatened to beat him up, but never with such elaborate punishments like feeding him to dogs or turning him into meat.gEuluaVClpZWCcRGFAMNsURnYWrIVV

The boy obediently walked over, though he was still wary. After taking a few steps, the little fairy screamed and stepped back several paces. “Don’t come near me, you’re disgusting. Yes, stay that far away, even further. Now follow me, but don’t make a sound. Move when I say, hide when I say. Be smart, or else someone will find us,” she threatened, making a slashing motion across her throat.iMRyuGHrjRcvoSNRiSSmvEZrJMClGi

Wang Erhu watched from behind, blushing as he admired the fairy’s exquisite face.RFXaEGLhMAMucLpobeiWZvlJDrHloF

The little fairy slowly turned her head back, her eyes wide with anger. “What? Are you blind? How could you mistake me for a girl? Did the mud block your eyes, or are you naturally this clueless?
