Chapter 138 Little Miner

"Mom, I also want to eat." Although Leo tried his best to endure the hunger in his stomach, he was still a child. He looked at the noodle soup in his bowl that was so clear that he could see the bottom of the bowl, and looked at the corn flour mixed with wild vegetables that his mother handed to his brother and sister. He swallowed his saliva and said.

"Bang!" The mother swung a spoon and hit the back of Leo's hand without thinking about it: "You are a debt collector who eats free food. You can't do anything. You still want to eat food. Bobo is for the people who work!" The fierce god roared at him.

"I'm working too!" Leo whispered that in order not to be regarded as a debt collector, he worked hard, no less than his brothers and sisters. Lucas quietly pulled his hand and signaled him to stop talking. Besides, his mother would be more angry. Sister Oni also blinked at him. Leo knew that his brothers and sisters would love him and save half of it for himself, but he felt sad and felt that he worked hard and his mother should treat himself as fairly as his brother and sister.

Leo put down the bowl and went out with his head down. This was the first time I saw Leo so angry. My mother was a little surprised, but then she cursed loudly, "You are a debt collector who eats free food, and you are still picky. If you don't eat it, save some food." Oni chased out and handed over half of the food: "Brother, don't be angry with your mother. The family is too difficult. She is not feeling well." Leo looked at the food in his sister's hand, shook his head and said sadly, "Eat it. I'm not angry with my mother. I just feel that I'm a drag on my family."

"No, brother! You are still young. We all grow up like this. Have you ever seen anyone who can grow up in life? When you grow up, everything will be fine. Then you can go out to make money, and your mother won't scold you anymore!" My sister comforted Leo with heartache.

Leo imagined that he would be happy like Ferry's father when he grew up. He smiled at his sister and said, "Sister, I'll go to play with Ferry for a while." His sister touched his head and narrowed her eyes and said, "Go!"

Leo jumped to Ferry's house. At this time, he regained his child's happy nature. He knew that Ferry's father had returned. He liked to go to his house to play, but just wanted to stay with Ferry's father more. Maybe it was because he could feel a trace of his father's breath.

Ferry's father, Phyllis, is a very kind man and aspires to be a boxer. Unfortunately, in order to support his family, he can't pursue his dreams. However, he is very concerned about this news and will practice his son and Leo when he has nothing to do, which makes Leo admire Phyllis very much. . And some knowledge about boxers is also learned from Phyllis.

Ferry's home is in the easternmost part of the village, which is the only wooden house in the village. Because Phyllis work in the mine, his family is relatively rich in the village. Often Phyllis can buy some white noodles, and the family can eat a white-faced bun. Every time Leo comes to play and eats buns, Phyllis will hand him one. He also sympathizes with the child and knows that his family is very difficult. Seeing that Leo was still naked in the winter, Phyllis gave his son a set of old clothes to keep out the cold. So Leo likes this uncle Phyllis very much.

Leo jumped to Ferry's house. Ferry immediately waved him over and excitedly showed his boxing gloves to his friends, which his father had just bought, which made Leo envious.

But Feli's mother, arian, is very angry, because the money spent on gloves is enough 5 coins, which is half of Phyllis's wages today, and he can buy half a bag of flour. For the poor, buying these useless things is equivalent to wasting money.

Philis is a good-tempered man. Other miners in the village are extremely grumpy because of their high-intensity labor every day and often beat their wives to vent their anger. But Leo has never seen Phyllis hit Aunt Yurian. He always listens to her scolding gently and kindly.

"Honey, there are still five coins left. Here you are!" Phyllis handed the money to his wife, and arian carefully collected it. Leo looked at the money handed over by Uncle Phyllis, and his eyes suddenly lit up. I could go to the mine to make money, so that the whole family could have a full meal, and my mother would no longer scold herself as a debt collector who ate free food.

"Uncle, can you take me to the mine? I also want to make money," Leo begged the uncle. The uncle touched Leo's head with a smile and said, "Son, go when you grow up!" You are not as tall as the mining car!" Seeing that the uncle didn't believe that he could do it, he pulled the uncle to a big stone next to the house and took a breath. He felt the force in his abdomen rushing to his limbs. He bent down and raised the stone over his head and threw it aside.

At this moment, Phyllis was stunned by this four-year-old child and couldn't believe that such a huge power could be possessed by such a small doll. He looked at Leo in surprise and felt that this doll was really a good material for boxing, but unfortunately it was born in such a remote village.

How did Leo know these thoughts in Phyllis's heart? He just saw the uncle standing in a daze and was a little nervous. He didn't know if he could take him to the mine to work. He walked over and took his uncle's hand: "Uncle Phyllis, please take me to the mine. I promise I can do a good job. I really don't want to eat at home. ."

As a poor man, Phyllis understood Leo's feelings very well. He squatted down and nodded: "Okay, I'll take you there, but you should know that entering the mine is a very dangerous thing. It is possible that the landslide may be buried alive at any time, or it may be crushed back by the car when he pushes out of his physical strength. Think about it before you come with me, okay?"

Leo looked at Phyllis and said firmly, "Don't think about it, Uncle Phyllis, I'll go anyway. I must let my family eat white-faced buns." Phyllis touched Leo's head with approval and said, "Good boy, come early tomorrow morning and I'll take you to Wendy."

He said goodbye to Uncle Phyllis and walked home happily, thinking that he could earn white-faced buns for his family immediately, and was very happy. As soon as I got to the door, I was hit by a broom thrown by my mother: "You lazy thing, my brothers and sisters have gone to the field. Where have you been?" My mother rushed out, picked up the broom on the ground, and hit me while scolding.

This time, Leo did not dodge, but righteously grabbed his mother's broom and raised his head and smiled and said, "Mom, I won't eat rice. Uncle Phyllis promised to take me to the mine tomorrow." His mother dragged the broom vigorously: "You still lied. How could the mine want you to do this What kind of people work?" Leo shouted seriously and angryly this time, "It's true. Uncle Phyllis promised to take me there when he saw me raising a big stone."

When Reina saw her son's serious and angry face, she suddenly felt that her heart was blocked. The broom in her hand fell to the ground feebly and silently turned around and walked into the room. Leo didn't understand why his mother was not very happy. He was no longer a drag and could make money for his family.

Reina lay on ** and cried, fiercely prying her hair and venting her inner pain. The mine that devouring her husband has always been her nightmare. Now her son is only four years old but stubbornly wants to embark on the same road of no return as his father. Although it is not good for the child, it is also because of real control. She can't help feeling irritable. In her heart, she and her child are still connected with a blood-rich family relationship.

At dinner that day, Reina picked up a bun and handed it to Leo for the first time. Sister Renee quickly pulled her brother's sleeve: "Cess it!" Leo was surprised to take over the food handed over by his mother, and his nose was a little sore in a trance, and tears fell down. Don't go tomorrow, just follow your brothers and sisters," Reina squeezed out a smile and said in a gentle tone.

"No, I must go. I don't want to eat free food at home!" Leo gently put the bun on the table and took a big mouthful of noodle soup, "Okay, you go! Go ahead! You died in the cave. I won't stop you from dying," Reina roared angrily. Leo put down his bowl and ran out, lying on a big stone not far from home, thinking about tomorrow, full of expectations.

Sister Oni also climbed up to sit next to her brother and handed over the bun. Leo smiled at her sister while nibbling, "Sister, I will make money soon. We will have white-faced buns to eat." The sister looked at her brother worriedly and gently took him in her arms: "Brother, don't go, Dad is dead. My sister is scared there!"

The cold tears fell on Leo's face. He looked up and saw the crystal tears on his sister's face. He stretched out his young hand and gently wiped the tears on his sister's face: "Sister, don't worry, I will be safe. When I grow up, I will still be the boxing champion and let our family live a good life. My mother will never be angry again..." As he spoke, Leo's voice became smaller and smaller. He fell asleep in his dream of becoming a boxing champion. In Leo's heart, his sister was closer than his mother.

When the early morning sun shone on the two siblings, Leo woke up. He gently put his sister's hand on his body aside, stood up and jumped off the stone and quickly ran to Uncle Phyllis's house.

Uncle Phyllis also got up and was about to go up the mountain. When he saw Leo coming, he handed him a piece of bun. The two quickly walked up the mountain, "Uncle, what's it like in the mine?" Uncle, what is the ore mined for? Uncle Phyllis felt that Leo had too many problems: "Ha ha, you can go and see."

The mine is located in the middle of the mountain, and the outside is full of ore. A dirt road connects to the foot of the mountain, and the endless carriage drags the ore down the mountain. From time to time, you can hear the miners shouting and kneeling down the mine truck, pushing it out and dumping it next to the ore pile.

Next to a counting black artificial head of the Inca Empire fiercely roared at the worker who poured the ore. Let's hurry up. The people on the back track were lined up. They scolded and whipped the workers. Everyone dared not say anything. This fierce guy treated the workers very cruelly. When he saw the boss Wendy, he could immediately change a pair. His face looks like a pug.

Everyone hates him very much, but in order to keep this job that can support the family, they are silently patient. Uncle Phyllis silently led Leo to the boss Wendy's office. At this time, Natalie, the white sexy secretary, was sitting on his lap. He touched the woman's body dishonestly and saw Phyllis come in and said impatiently, "If you don't work, what are you doing here?"

Philis said humbly, "Boss, this child wants to be a miner. Please give him a chance. His family is very difficult!" Wendy saw a four-year-old doll next to Phyllis and frowned, "I don't have time to joke with you poor man. What can no one do? I'm not a charity here," he waved to them to get out quickly.

"Boss, it's true. This child can lift a few tons of stone. You can ask him to lift it for you to see." Phyllis hurriedly explained, "Give me a chance, boss, I promise I will satisfy you," Leo pleaded anxiously.

Hearing Phyllis say that the child can lift a few tons of stones, Wendy became interested. He wanted to see if the child really had such great power. He turned around and said to Natalie, "Baby, let's take a look!" Natalie nodded and took the bald old man's hand and walked to the middle of the mine.

Wendy looked at the collapsed huge stones next to the mine and pointed to one of them and said, "That's it!" This huge stone is seven or eight tons. "Boss, you? ..." Phyllis didn't expect this guy to choose such a heavy stone. He was a little worried that Leo might not be able to lift it, because it was not a weight that a flesh-and-blood man could lift, unless it was a god but not a man.

Leo walked under the stone, and his heart was beating, but he knew that there was no way out. It was an opportunity. This opportunity was fleeting, so he had to lift it up.

The miners around stopped and watched this scene curiously. They all hung their hearts for the child. Leo quietly consciously led the force in his abdomen to his whole body and poured it into his arms. Suddenly, he felt that his muscles were fiercely long. He bent down and hugged the big stone. He breathed but could not lift it up, but just moved.

Wendy looked at it and felt that the child might not be able to lift it up and was about to go back. Suddenly, she heard a loud shout and turned her head and was shocked. The child actually lifted the big stone up and threw it aside. Immediately, with a "bang" sound. As the stone fell to the ground, there was a hole under it, surrounded by The miners and the workers transporting the ore cheered like thunder.

Phyllis breathed a sigh of relief and quickly asked Wendy, "Boss..." Wendy waved her hand to signal, "You can accept him, but the wages will be halved." Phyllis was a little dissatisfied. Isn't it obvious that he bullied the child at a young age? He only took half of the wages for doing the same job. Leo pulled Uncle Phyllis clothes and signaled him not to say more. He was very satisfied with such wages, and he was a little worried that Wendy would regret it.
