Her Highness Doesn’t Want to Work Hard Anymore

Chapter 135 Contrary to the army!

The girl gestured for a long time, but Hua Manman couldn't figure out how to get to the county town?

She wanted to ask the girl to help lead the way, but her father had just passed away, and this was the saddest moment, so she was really embarrassed to say her request.

Girls are very eye-catching.

She sensed what was going on in Hua Manman's mind, and offered to propose.

"Why don't I take you there."

Hua Manman was overjoyed: "That's great!"

Then she saw the girl showing a hesitant and struggling look.

Just when Hua Manman was puzzled, Li Ji suddenly spoke.

"What do you want in return?"

The girl's pale and thin face blushed immediately after someone broke her mind.

She pinched the corner of her clothes and asked embarrassedly.

"Can you...can you give us something to eat?"

She and her younger brother hadn't eaten for two days, and her father died of illness because he was too hungry and traveled a long distance.

Their siblings are in desperate need of food now.

If they can no longer find food, they will probably die in despair just like their father.

Hua Manman was in a dilemma: "We didn't bring any food with us."

In fact, there was a lot of food in their carriage, but when they fell into the water, they only wanted to survive, so how could they care about food?

At this time, the two of them are alone, with nothing.

The girl was very disappointed: "That's it..."

Then she said again.

"Then can you do me a favor?

My dad passed away, I can't just leave him here.

But my brother and I are too weak, and we don't have tools, so we can't dig a hole..."

Hua Manman understood in seconds: "Where do you plan to bury your father? We can help dig a pit."

The girl doesn't know feng shui, so she can only try to choose a place with higher terrain, lest her father's tomb be washed away by the flood.

There are no hoes or shovels here, and you can only dig holes with your hands.

Hua Manman pulled the dirt twice with her hands, and one of her nails was split, causing her face to wrinkle into a ball due to the pain.

Originally, Li Ji planned to stand by and watch coldly.

It was impossible for him to do such a rough job of digging someone's grave.

But when he saw Hua Manman's pitiful appearance, he was a little annoyed.

Hua Manman wanted to go digging the dirt again, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, King Zhao grabbed him.

With all his strength, Li Ji pulled her up and pushed her aside.

"Go and stay aside."

Hua Manman looked at him in surprise.

Li Ji tore off a strip of cloth from the hem of his clothes, and used the strip of cloth as a rope to tie the stick and a sharp stone together.

He started digging with this simple homemade hoe.

Although the tools are crude, at least they can be used. In addition, Li Ji has been practicing martial arts all year round, and his strength is far beyond ordinary people.

Soon he dug a deep hole.

The girl wrapped her father in a tattered straw mat, then lifted her father up with her younger brother and carefully put him into the pit.

The four of them worked together to fill up the pit and set up a wooden sign in front of the grave.

The girl can even read.

She bit her finger and wrote her father's name and dates of birth and death on the wooden sign with blood.

Now there is no condition to wear hemp and filial piety, let alone offering joss sticks.

The siblings knelt in front of the grave and kowtowed three times firmly.

That's all right.

Hua Manman took out a handkerchief and helped Li Ji wrap up the wound on his forearm.

Because of the physical work done just now, Li Ji's wound opened a little more, and more blood flowed out.

Even wrapping it with a handkerchief could not completely stop the blood.

Soon the blood stained the handkerchief red.

Hua Manman is very worried, too much blood loss will lead to death.

Hearing her heartfelt voice, Li Ji smiled indifferently.

"It's okay, Ben..."

In the current situation, he can only hide his identity temporarily, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.

So he forcibly changed his name.

"I have suffered more serious injuries than this before. Didn't I survive well?"

Hua Manman thought of the hideous scar on his leg, and felt quite sad.

She had a distressed look on her face.

"As the saying goes, if you survive a catastrophe, you will have good fortune. You will be able to get everything you want in the future!"

After the siblings bid farewell to their father, they decided to send Hua Manman and Li Ji to the county seat as promised.

The two sides made a brief self-introduction on the way.

The girl's name is Jin Ling'er, and her brother's name is Jin Sinian.

It can be seen from the name that they should not be ordinary farmers.

Farmers these days are very casual in naming their children. For details, you can refer to dog eggs, dog leftovers, and the like.

Some girls don't even have a proper name, so they just call them Da Ya Er Ya according to their ranking.

Hua Manman is very like doing as the Romans do, and has given herself a down-to-earth pseudonym.

"My name is Hua Xiaoyu. I like to eat fish, so I got that name."

Then she pointed to King Zhao and introduced it very naturally.

"This is my husband-in-law, named Li Ergou."

Li Ji: "..."

Li Er what? You have the ability to say it again!

Hua Manman seemed to know that King Zhao would lose his temper, so she hurried over and explained to him in a low voice.

"Rural people like to name their children cats, dogs, etc. We have to follow the customs of the country, so that it is not easy to attract people's attention."

Li Ji sneered: "Then why don't you name yourself Hua Dagou?"

Hua Manman: "Hua Dagou doesn't sound good."

Li Ji's smile was almost ferocious: "Is Li Ergou really nice?"

Hua Manman thought to himself, although Li Ergou doesn't sound good, it fits your temperament very well!

She pretended to be embarrassed and said shyly.

"I think your name sounds nice no matter what you call it."

Li Ji stretched out his hands to pinch her face, as if venting his anger, pinched her face until it was deformed.

It's fine for this little thing to scold him in his heart, but now he dares to find an opportunity to scold him blatantly.

Hua Manman pitifully begs for mercy.

"It hurts, it hurts, take it easy!"

Sensing that the Jin family siblings were looking this way, Li Ji didn't want to arouse suspicion, so he could only let go of this little thing.

Seeing that Hua Manman was covering her face as if in pain, Jin Ling'er asked cautiously.

"Sister-in-law, are you okay?"

Hua Manman froze and asked in disbelief.

"You, what do you call me?"

Jin Ling'er looked blank: "Sister-in-law, your husband's name is Li Ergou, shouldn't we call you sister-in-law?"

Hua Manman: "..."

Fuck, I actually forgot that there was such a stubble!

She forced a smile with difficulty: "You can also call me Mrs. Li."

Li Ji said with a smile.

"No, I think the title of dog sister-in-law is better.

Anyway, in my hometown, the folks used to call you that, don’t you think you’re right, Mrs. Gou? "

Hua Manman: "..."

Damn, to be turned into an army by this dog man!

Although Jin Ling'er didn't understand the reason, she could sense that the atmosphere between Li Ergou and his wife was a bit weird.
