Global Desertification: I am accumulating merit in another world
Chapter 136: Captured Ancestor
Xie Jingyi's body swayed, and the smile on her lips could hardly be maintained.
She watched the girl pick a grape and eat it, and then Fang Haoran immediately handed over the plate on his left hand. There was already a layer of grape skin on the plate.
After Fang Haoran took the grape skins and stood up, he saw Xie Jingyi. He quickly put down the plate and went to help her.
"Madam! Why are you here?" Then he turned around and shouted to the servant, "Quick! Bring another chair."
"I thought since there are guests in the mansion, I should at least come and take a look."
Xie Jingyi was helped to sit steadily in the chair, and only then did she see clearly that the half-lying woman was still a child!
He looks about eleven or twelve years old, with a childish face.
This... Fang Haoran is such a jerk, isn't he? Such a young child...
Thinking of this, she looked at Fang Haoran with some disgust.
Fang Haoran didn't notice it at all. He was feeling very nervous. No matter how careful he was, he still couldn't prevent it!
"My wife is pregnant, why worry about this? I will take care of the guests."
After saying that, he secretly looked at Shen Lishu again, with pleading in his eyes.
Shen Lishu found it funny, but still promised, "I'm not interested in pregnant women, and I'm even less interested in pregnant women who don't mess with me."
Xie Jingyi: What does that mean?
Fang Haoran finally breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she didn't do anything to his wife, he would bear with the injustice.
"Thank you for your generosity, young lady."
Xie Jingyi finally realized that something was wrong. She looked at Fang Haoran, then at the girl, and remembered their positions just now.
That's clearly the position of a servant!
"you……"
"Who is this girl...?"
Fang Haoran quickly explained, "She is the youngest daughter of King Nuan, Princess Mingzhu. She is here to play with us for a few days."
Xie Jingyi still felt something was wrong, "But..."
How could Princess Mingzhu of Nuan come here, and how could Fang Haoran be so respectful to her?
After all, he and King Nuan were on equal footing, and I heard that the two families were about to come to blows.
Fang Haoran was sweating all over and held Xie Jingyi tightly, "Madam, how about I take you back? There's nothing to see here."
"No, since you're here, why not chat?" Shen Lishu looked at Xie Jingyi with surprise. He didn't expect that the world was so small that he could meet again someone he had only met once back then.
"Ten years ago, Madam was stranded in Shitou Village? She was later released."
"How did you know?" Xie Jingyi stood up in shock, looking at Shen Lishu inquiringly. Even her husband Fang Haoran didn't know about this. How could this girl...
Who is he!
Shen Lishu smiled mysteriously, "I just know it! Since my wife is here, why don't we... play Pai Gow together?"
"We are short of one person!"
Xie Jingyi was speechless.
Fang Haoran was really speechless.
"Girl, my wife is timid, please don't scare her."
Shen Lishu raised his eyebrows and said nothing. Is she timid?
Not necessarily.
Xie Jingyi, full of questions, asked someone to bring the cards up.
This is an entertainment activity that people in Haicheng love to play. Shen Lishu has just learned it not long ago and is getting so excited that he wishes he could sit at the card table every day.
Fang Haoran felt his heart pounding when he saw how hard she played. He must be crazy to teach a little girl how to play Pai Gow!
On this day, Shen Lishu was strolling on the street as usual. There were many kinds of seafood here, so she stocked up a lot of them, and Fang Haoran paid for all of them.
The market was very simple and deserted. All the people passing by were dark and thin, with numbness in their eyes, numbness towards life and the world.
"Commander Fang, look at the people under your rule. Do you think they are living well?"
Fang Haoran's eyes were firm, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with this. "Those who achieve great things don't pay attention to small details. Besides, some things always require trade-offs."
"Puchi!" Shen Lishu laughed sarcastically.
"These are just excuses made by those who are obsessed with profit. They want to rule the world but don't care about the lives of the people.
Tell me, what is this world?
The two of them strolled to the beach. Shen Lishu found a random beach and lay down to watch the people fishing in the distance. Then he heard Fang Haoran's righteous voice.
"The world is naturally this vast country. If the imperial court is unkind, there will be someone to take its place!"
"The one who can replace me will definitely not be you, Fang Haoran!" Shen Lishu said quietly, resting his head on his hands and looking into the distance.
“In my opinion, the world is made up of the people, and their lives of rise and fall are what bring this world together.
And you are just a group of invaders who put profit above all else."
Fang Haoran said in a deep voice: "Isn't it the same for the girl?
Which power in the world today doesn't want to rule the Central Plains and unify the world! Isn't your Qingli Kingdom the same? "
Shen Lishu chuckled and didn't want to say anything more since it didn't make sense, "Maybe, if you have a chance, you can go to Qingli Country to take a look.
I have never relied on my fists to rule them. Commander Fang was once a member of the lower class of society and should have experienced the difficulties of the lower class people. But how is what you are doing now different from those people back then?"
"Huizhou... I haven't been back for a long time." That was his hometown. After he escaped, he headed west to avoid Shen Lishu and experienced countless hardships to get to where he is today.
He also hated Shen Lishu, and even wanted to kill her in his dreams countless times, but he knew that he couldn't beat her...
A person will be jealous and will hate those who are stronger than himself, but when that person is much stronger than himself, like heaven and earth, he will not be jealous but will only look up to him.
"I have always been curious about your origins. You don't look like you are from this world."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lishu looked at him with a higher opinion. He was indeed a man who could work his way up to become a leader. His perception was really sharp.
However, she had no intention of telling him her origins.
"Did you see me cleaning up the people in Huizhou that night?"
"……Yes."
"No wonder!" Shen Lishu snorted coldly, "Every time you see me, you act as if you are facing a formidable enemy."
"Let's go, go back."
Shen Lishu stood up. In just two months, she had grown from a little girl of seven or eight years old to a little girl of eleven or twelve years old.
Fang Haoran had witnessed such a huge change in her, so he was even more afraid of her.
"Chief! King Nuan's army is approaching and demands that we hand over Princess Mingzhu!"
He actually wants to hand it over!
Fang Haoran glanced at Shen Lishu and ordered his servants, "Tell King Nuan that I don't have his princess here. Please withdraw your troops quickly, otherwise I won't be afraid of him!"
Shen Lishu asked, "You originally captured me to threaten King Nuan?"
Fang Haoran: “…Yes.”
His expression was indescribable. If he had known he would meet such a girl, he would not have gone to so much trouble. He regretted it so much!
"That's great. Please invite him in. I can explain it to him."
"But...you..." Fang Haoran pointed at Shen Lishu's body. Such a big change would be scary, right?
"What are you afraid of?" Shen Lishu rolled his eyes. Such a grown man but so timid!
Fang Haoran left and went to invite Duan Qing.
Three days later, Shen Lishu went to Nuan border to meet Duan Qing.
Fang Haoran accompanied them, and the three of them stayed in the study and chatted for the whole afternoon.
Duan Qing looked at Shen Lishu in surprise and doubt, "Are you... Li'er?" They didn't look alike, but the most important thing was that the person in front of him was a head taller than him!
"Chief Fang! What do you mean? Do you think I can't recognize my daughter? What do you mean by just finding someone who looks similar?"
The fraud was so careless, and his daughter is only eight years old, okay?
Fang Haoran's face was full of helplessness, he also felt aggrieved!
"I don't know if she is your daughter, but the one I caught is her!"
"You're talking nonsense! If you didn't catch her, who did? If you don't return my daughter to me, I'll kill you!"
Fang Haoran looked at Shen Lishu, gritted his teeth and stamped his feet. "What are you looking at? Explain yourself quickly!"
Shen Lishu touched his nose and suddenly felt a little guilty, which was rare.
"King Nuan, I am indeed Li'er, but I am also indeed not your daughter."
"No...what's going on?" Duan Qing was confused, "You are Li'er, not my daughter, so where is my daughter?
I checked and found that you are indeed Bai Yue's child, and you also have my token."
Shen Lishu shook her head helplessly and racked her brains to think of how to explain this supernatural event. It was so outrageous that she didn't think anyone would believe it!
"Well...how should I put it? To be precise, this body is indeed your daughter, but the soul inside is not."
