He slipped and fell twice. The first time he was bruised and battered, but he still refused to give up. The second time... he scattered firewood all over the ground and couldn't get up anymore.

Sasha stared blankly at her sister: "What are you talking about?"

“I saw my father’s end. It’s no use. We can’t even bring his body back by ourselves.”

"nonsense!"

The girl shouted, "You didn't even leave home, so how could you have seen Dad fall twice?"

"I don't know, but I definitely saw it."

Lachesis grabbed her sister's arm: "Sasha, it's too late. This is fate, and we can only accept it."

"You coward!"

Sasha didn't believe her sister's nonsense. She just thought her sister was a coward and didn't dare to run up the mountain in the middle of the night to save her father.

'I'm going even if I'm the only one!'

As soon as the girl turned around, Lachesis ran to the door and bolted it shut.

“It’s too dangerous to go up the mountain now, I can’t lose you again.”

"If you want to get out of this room, beat me down first!"

Let's fight!

Sasha was furious and charged at her sister, swinging her fists.

Calmly, I turned to the side and extended my left foot, causing my sister to trip and fall to the ground with a cry of pain.

"what!!!"

Sasha scrambled to her feet and charged at Lachesis like an angry goat.

However, the eldest daughter of the Vernon family was the most skilled at sheep training.

His movements were like a ghost, and with a light but firm hook of his left foot, his sister fell to the ground with a thud, seeing stars.

...............................

Damn it!

How is Lachesis so good at fighting? She's way too good!

Sasha didn't even touch the hem of her sister's clothes before she fell countless times and couldn't get up again.

"You're just like those angry sheep..."

Seeing that her sister was ignoring her, Lachesis struggled to carry her onto the bed.

“Father is gone, Sasha. From now on, we will depend on each other.”

"..."

Exhausted, the girl refused to close her eyes, wanting to wait until her sister fell asleep before running out.

Seeing this, Lachesis shook her head and found a rope.

"Don't blame your sister, your sister can't lose you."

After tying Sasha up tightly, Lachesis said goodnight and then fell silent.

Her eyelids grew heavier and heavier until, just as the sun was rising, the girl couldn't help but fall asleep.

For the next two weeks, the two sisters did not exchange a single word.

"I forgot to feed the sheep today."

One afternoon, Sasha suddenly spoke up.

"Need not"

"Why not use it? If we don't feed the sheep, won't they all starve to death?"

"The sheep were gone yesterday, along with a whole pile of straw in the sheepfold."

"..."

That's all?

How could the sheep suddenly disappear! Could it be...?

How could they do this!

Sasha struggled violently: "Sister, let go of me! I'll go find all our sheep!"

They won't pay us back.

"Let go, please let me go!"

"It's been so long... I'm not going up the mountain anymore, let go!"

.......................................

Lachesis eventually untied her sister, Sasha, who then rushed out of the house and started causing a ruckus in the village.

"You shameless people, you steal our sheep, you steal our sheep!"

"Open the door!"

"Let someone be the judge! Someone, please be the judge!"

They knocked on the door until their hands almost broke, but no one answered. They shouted until their voices were hoarse, but the elder still didn't come out.

A fire ignited in Sasha's heart. She ran home, grabbed a hoe, and prepared to fight those thugs!

"Don't"

Lachesis blocked the doorway once again: "If you go alone and really anger the villagers, they'll beat you to death."

"What kind of fellow villagers are you!"

Girls shouldn't use vulgar language.

"We can't let others bully us!"

Sasha's eyes reddened: "There's a knife in Dad's room. If you acknowledge me as your sister, then take the knife and come with me to settle the score with them!"

"I admit it, but I won't go along with your nonsense."

A karate chop made the girl drop the hoe in pain, and with a hook of her left foot, Sasha fell to the ground in resentment.

Why do you only ever bully me?!

"I'm not bullying you, little sister, listen to your older sister's advice."

Lachesis, unable to get up from Sasha's back, said helplessly, "Losing the sheep is a small matter; your safety is the most important thing."

"They outnumber us, let's be patient for now!"

Volume 1: Chapter 614 The white knife goes in, the red knife comes out!

"Endure, endure, endure, how long can we endure this?"

"At least, after we leave here."

Lachesis said seriously, "We can't stay in this village anymore, but it's freezing cold now, so we can't move even if we wanted to."

"We'll move away next spring!"

"..."

"So our sheep were just stolen by them for nothing?" Sasha was still a little unwilling.

"If you ever want to come back for revenge, I will definitely follow you."

Lachesis emphasized, "But not now!"

"Little sister, you're being too impulsive. Taking a hoe and going to fight them to the death isn't impressive. Listen to your older sister and hold back for now."

"Is it okay?"

Lachesis smiled with relief as she felt the struggling force beneath her suddenly lessen.

"Get off me right now, or you'll break my back!"

“good good”

After this incident, the sisters' relationship improved considerably.

From that day on, Sasha would sit by the window every day to admire the snow scene... Well, she wasn't admiring the snow scene, but rather hoping that the snow would stop soon.

'Snow, oh snow, please stop!'

'Winter, hurry away! Spring, hurry over!'

We waited and waited, but the snow not only didn't stop, it just kept falling heavier and heavier.

This winter is not only exceptionally cold, but also exceptionally long.

The crops have grown so large that there might not be enough food for the winter.

'The stored food will last for about ten days; we must start saving!'

Two meals a day became one meal a day, and then quickly became one meal every two days.

Sasha was so hungry she felt dizzy, and Lachesis looked much more haggard.

"That won't do!"

One day, the girl suddenly jumped out of bed.

"Sister, we're just waiting to die!"

Seeing that Lachesis remained silent, Sasha said anxiously, "The snow outside has lessened a bit, but I don't know when it will stop."

"How long will our food last? We can't just leave it to fate."

...................................

"But what other options do we have?"

Lachesis said weakly, "Should we go out and borrow grain from the villagers now? No one will lend it to us."

"We can only wait, wait for fate to decide."
