章節 128: A Chance Encounter in the Forest

Wang Mazi's real name was Wang Ergou. He was a native of Lotus Flower Village. When he was about eight or nine years old, he had herpes. He and his family didn't pay much attention to it. He left a face full of pockmarks after scratching it. That was how he got Wang Mazi's nickname. [T/N: Mazi is the Chinese word for pockmarks.]

Wang Mazi was almost thirty years old this year. He was still single to this day. Firstly, his family was poor, the kind of poor that didn't have a next meal. When his parents were still alive, he didn't have a good life, and after they passed away, he was even more miserable. Secondly, he wasn't very smart. He couldn't be said to be mentally retarded, but he was stupid and easily fooled. A few years ago, an outsider gave him a wife, and he gave her a betrothal gift. But his wife ran away.
