Bab 189: Chapter 188 On the Road

Listening to the old man's boasting, Li Huowang gradually learned about the life of the gong-striking young man.

It was quite inspirational to talk about it. The Hou Family wasn't always this rich, once they were so poor it was heartbreaking.

The few acres of low-yielding fields at home simply couldn't sustain a large family, so he had no choice but to go out and beg for food.

However, as for the so-called general he mentioned, Li Huowang still had some doubts because, in the other's words, anyone who held an office in the camp was a general.

"Hey, there was no such good times back in the day. We had nothing to eat or drink at home, and only one pair of trousers to wear whoever had to go out got to wear them."

Hearing the other party's sighs, Li Huowang casually chimed in.

After some idle chit-chat, the old man, whose pride had been greatly satisfied, walked away with his hands behind his back and his back bent toward the distance, toward the yard with two stone lions.
