The daily life of a peasant girl taking the imperial examination

Upon hearing this, Zhuge Yunshu realized that this was exactly what she wanted; it was time to show everyone her true strength.

"No need for that, I can do it myself." With that, he reached out to take the luggage from the guard's hands.

Seeing how confident the child was, the guard didn't react for a moment and then let go.

"boom!"

Zhuge Yunshu's face made intimate contact with the ground.

guard:"……"

Zhuge Laifu and his wife: "..."

Zhuge Yunshu: (┯_┯)

This luggage is so heavy! What did Grandpa, Grandma, and Dad pack in there?

Looking at her daughter's miserable state, Lin felt both heartache and amusement, thinking how capable the girl was.

Just as he was about to step forward to help her up, Zhuge Yunshu nimbly got up on her own.

I dusted myself off and, with the mindset that I wasn't embarrassed but others were, I calmly said, "It was an accident. I'm really strong. Let's try again."

She found it strange that even though she had used the Super Strength Card, she couldn't even carry these luggage items.

Zhuge Yunshu speculated that it might be due to incorrect posture or some kind of incantation.

However, the reality is cruel. Despite her various attempts to move the luggage—dragging, pulling, lifting, and other bizarre maneuvers—it remained completely still, or rather, it didn't move much at all.

Zhuge Dahua estimates that she has completely lost face.

Seeing this, the guard couldn't help but chuckle: "Your child has perseverance. This indomitable spirit is more manly than those pampered young masters in town!"

"Hehe, my daughter is like me, quite confident. She'll be fine once she hits a wall," Zhuge Laifu explained with a laugh.

Hearing her husband's words, Lin couldn't help but facepalm, thinking to herself, "You two are quite alike in your shamelessness, though not that of ordinary people."

At this moment, Zhuge Yunshu decided to try one last time. She took a deep breath, grabbed her luggage and lifted it up. Suddenly, she stumbled and managed to lift it up.

"I told you I'm strong, see? I can do it!" Zhuge Yunshu picked up his luggage lightly and waved it in front of them with a smug look on his face.

Then, before Zhuge Laifu, Lin Shi, and the guards could react, he hoisted two large bags of luggage onto his shoulder, carried three packages in his other hand, and swaggered into the town school.

As he stepped across the threshold, he turned back to remind his parents, "Mom and Dad, I know the way to the town school. You should go back now and be careful on the road."

Zhuge Laifu and his wife were still in a daze as they watched their daughter's figure gradually disappear.

"Your daughter is incredibly strong! Those things are difficult for us adult men to lift. I think she could participate in the martial arts examination," the guard exclaimed.

The couple, whose thoughts had been interrupted, suddenly came to their senses. Zhuge Laifu quickly waved his hand and said, "My daughter is indeed quite strong. She usually cuts grass for chickens at home, and she doesn't even pant when she carries that bamboo basket on her back. Haha, forget about the martial arts exam. It's not appropriate for a young lady to compete with ordinary men."

After saying this, he took his leave.

“Dahua’s mother, you said that Dahua couldn’t lift the luggage at first, how did she suddenly pick it up? This is too strange,” Zhuge Laifu said in confusion.

“When she was little, she was indeed stronger than her older cousins, but at the time I thought it was because she ate more,” Zhuge Laifu continued.

Turning his head again, Zhuge Laifu saw Lin's guilty expression and her face flushed red. He was even more puzzled. "Wife, what's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything? Your face is so red, are you constipated? Hold on a little longer, there's no outhouse around here."

"Get lost, you're the one who's constipated," Lin said disapprovingly.

Then he looked at Zhuge Laifu with a hesitant look in his eyes, but still spoke up: "Master, I have a secret that I have never told you."

Zhuge Laifu's heart skipped a beat, and he stammered, "What...thing...don't...scare me."

"Dahua probably inherited her strength from my maternal family, especially from her performance just now. Just like my cousin from my uncle's family, her strength is sometimes good and sometimes not."

“When Da Hua was little, I also had my doubts, but not to an exaggerated degree, so I thought she was different from my cousin.”

"I never expected that Da Hua would have such great strength at eight years old. Husband, what should we do? If others find out that Da Hua is so strong, will anyone still want to be our son-in-law?" Lin said worriedly.

Her cousin was ten years older than her, but because she was born with superhuman strength and had an enormous appetite, she was still unmarried until she was twenty-seven.

On the way to escape famine, she was the first in her family to starve to death because they could never get enough to eat.

Under this shadow, Lin always secretly hid food, and whenever Da Hua was hungry, she would take it out for her to eat.

She is afraid!

Hearing this, Zhuge Laifu breathed a sigh of relief. "You woman, you always talk so dramatically. Isn't this a good thing? With Da Hua putting in so much effort, we don't have to worry about her being bullied by others."

"What's there to be afraid of if no sons-in-law come to our home? I'm working hard to make money now. Once I have more money, why would I be afraid that no one will come to us to be our sons-in-law?"

Zhuge Laifu patted his chest, relieved that it wasn't what he had thought.

He thought his wife had done something terrible, like switching the baby without his knowledge!

"That's true. My cousin didn't pay the full amount back then, which is why another company beat her to it."

“But sir, let’s keep this a secret for now!” Lin suggested.

"no problem."

In this way, without Zhuge Yunshu's knowledge, her divine power came into being.

Zhuge Yunshu arrived outside the main hall of the town school, put his luggage down beside him, and dust immediately rose up.

She looked around, but there was no one there.

Zhuge Yunshu glanced at the admission handbook again, then at the stone statue in the center of the town's main hall, and murmured, "That's right, the sign is quite obvious."

“Host, this place is right, there’s no problem. You’ve arrived too early. We need to be more confident.”

Zhuge Yunshu was startled by the sudden sound.

But it was precisely this that reminded her of the embarrassing incident from before.

"System, tell me, what's going on with this Super Strength Card?"

"They were used correctly, but they failed to work when it mattered most. I now seriously suspect that the cards in the system are all counterfeit products," Zhuge Yunshu said with dissatisfaction.

"How could it be a counterfeit or substandard product? You have to trust that anything produced by the system is guaranteed to be of high quality."

"This Super Strength Card is a Level 5 item, so it definitely won't be like a regular Strength Card. Host, you'll need to explore their specific functions," the system explained.

To be honest, it wasn't very clear either.

"So, since it's a product, isn't there even a description?"

"Yes, you can only see it after the system is upgraded to level five."

Zhuge Yunshu: "..."

I thought I'd gotten a good deal, but it turned out to be such a pain in the ass.

"Host, you see you're stronger now, so just make do with this for now."

Zhuge Yunshu thought about it and agreed. She looked at the luggage next to her and habitually reached out to pick it up.

Zhuge Yun's memorial: (? ○ Д ○)?

System: (?Д?)

This unlucky card has expired again.
