Global Desertification: I am accumulating merit in another world

"Li'er, it really doesn't matter. If you don't want to give me a name, then I will definitely not force you to do it."

When these words came out of his mouth, they carried a heartbreaking relief, but at the same time revealed a hint of attachment that was hard to let go.

Shen Lishu felt strongly condemned in his heart and blurted out, "Who said I wouldn't give it to you!"

After saying that, Shen Lishu regretted it again and continued, "I will marry you when the world is at peace."

Xiao Mu was so angry that he laughed, gnashing his teeth and saying, "You are such a scumbag!"

He learned this from Shen Lishu.

No matter what, Shen Lishu decided to keep it a secret from his parents and take it one step at a time.

She went down the mountain, causing Cuiwei and Sanniang to hug her and cry for a long time.

Cuiwei was more stable after all. After all, she had known that Shen Lishu had returned and this time he had only restored his original appearance. She wiped her tears and said,

"Oh, by the way, quickly bring the two princesses here to kowtow. Their mother is back."

Jixiang and Ruyi were taken to the main hall with confused faces.

She looked at the woman above with a confused look on her face. Wasn't that the person hanging in their room? Had she come back to life from the dead?

The two of them were led by the maids, knelt down, kowtowed, and were filled with grief and indignation. They had just gotten rid of that hateful elder sister, and now a foster mother came back. Oh my God!

I really don't want anyone to live!

The two of them had been a little bit cocky and in a state of solidity recently, but then Shen Lishu came back!

Are you surprised?

Not surprised?

Shen Lishu squinted her eyes and looked at the two of them. Now that her cultivation had recovered, she could more clearly see the resentment emanating from the two of them.

"You two should get up. You have grown so big in the blink of an eye."

The two stood up and tentatively called out, "Queen Mother."

Shen Lishu waved his hand, "Come here, both of you."

The two looked at each other, walked up to the platform hand in hand, Ruyi rolled her eyes and said cutely, "The Queen Mother is so beautiful."

Shen Lishu smiled and asked, "What are you two doing recently? Are you going to school?"

... "No." Ruyi was extremely nervous. The empress looked so majestic and it seemed like she didn't like him. He didn't dare to say that he didn't go to school because he was thinking about the teacher.

"Then from tomorrow on, you two will continue to go to school. If you make the teacher run away again, I will reward you with fried meat with whips. How do you think?"

How did she know?

Ruyi had a thousand questions in her mind, but she didn't dare to act rashly. "I just know." She lowered her head and held Jixiang's hand tightly, as if only in this way could she muster the courage to speak.

"Move to my bedroom."

Once an order is given, someone will naturally do it at a very fast speed.

Zhou Lihua nodded slightly, with a glimmer of excitement in her eyes, and suggested softly:

"Now that you have recovered, you must make a formal appearance in front of everyone! Coincidentally, the annual Goddess Festival will be here in ten days. At that time, we will hold a grand and solemn return ceremony in our prosperous and bustling Phoenix City!

After the ceremony, organize a parade through the streets, so that everyone in the city knows clearly that you have returned safely!"

Hearing this, Shen Lishu pondered for a moment, then raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and responded readily: "Okay, everything will be done according to your arrangements."

After all, she had been out of public sight for a long time. Although Qingli had always claimed over the years that she was just recuperating from illness, time passed quickly, and after so many years, various rumors about her death had already spread among the people.

Although she did not devote herself deeply to the all-round construction of Qingli Kingdom, no one can deny that the solid foundation laid in the initial stage played a crucial role.

It can be said that without her efforts and hard work, there would not be the Qingli Kingdom that is booming and thriving today.

Looking back to the past, those bowls of steaming hot, nutritious porridge warmed the hearts of countless elderly people in Qingli Country.

The porridge not only provides them with the nutrients they need for their bodies, but also becomes a spiritual sustenance and emotional bond. The children who grew up in the orphanage she founded personally regard her as the guardian angel of their lives.

Shen Lishu is undoubtedly the soul of Qingli Country. It is because of her existence that people from all corners of the world can gather together and work together to create this prosperous country.

Her wisdom, courage and spirit of selfless dedication have deeply touched everyone living on this land and inspired everyone to keep moving forward and work tirelessly for a better future.

As long as the people know that Shen Lishu is back, the cohesion of the country will surely be raised to a higher level.

That afternoon, the sun was shining brightly and the breeze was not dry. Zhou Lihua stood in the spacious and solemn courtyard of Qingli Villa, and her voice rang out clearly and loudly: "Everyone! Please come and greet me as soon as possible!" This shout spread quickly like ripples.

Soon, all the servants and guards in the villa came in quick steps, standing in neat rows with respect and curiosity on their faces. The girls from the secret room who usually hid in the dark also appeared gracefully with solemn expressions.

After everyone gathered, Zhou Lihua cleared her throat and said solemnly: "I have called everyone here today because I have an important announcement - our lord Shen Lishu has returned!" As soon as these words came out, there was a slight commotion in the crowd, and everyone's eyes were cast in the direction where the legendary figure was about to appear.

At the same time, Zhou Lihua also specially arranged for someone to spread this important news to the outside world. The news spread quickly in all directions as if it had wings.

The next morning, at dawn, the envoys arrived outside Qingli Villa early to wait for an audience. They were dressed in gorgeous court robes, holding tablets, and their faces were serious but full of expectation.

In the villages at the foot of the mountain, people also heard the good news of the king's return. The simple and kind villagers took action. Some families sent their own fat hens, hoping to offer a delicious meal to the king; others brought fresh vegetables just picked from the fields. Although these gifts were not priceless, each one was prepared with the villagers' deep respect and blessings for the king.

Tan Hehua has lived in Balitun for so many years and has always wanted to win over Lin Chen, but unfortunately he never gave her any chance. Now her children have grown up and she has grown old.

She was a weak woman, and it was only because she lived at the foot of Qingli Villa that it would be impossible for her to raise a child safely if she were outside.

She was also among those who gave gifts, but what she gave away were not things, but people.

"Brother Lin, I beg you, please let me see the king, I beg you."

Lin Chen was unmoved. "Miss Tan, it's useless for you to beg me. The villa has its own rules. I can't let anyone in casually. If you have something to say, tell me and I'll pass it on for you."

Tan Hehua had no choice but to push the girl next to her forward, "Zhu'er is a smart child. Tell the king to let her work as a maid in the villa and serve tea to the king."

Lin Chen didn't know what to say, and was almost amused by her wild imagination. "Do you think Qingli Villa is your home? You can go in whenever you want? If everyone can come in just by asking, wouldn't that be a mess?"

Tan Hehua was anxious, "Don't you have a lot of face in front of the king? As long as you ask, she will definitely agree!"

"Impossible!" Lin Chen turned around and took a few steps back. "I won't say that. You can go back. Qingli Country doesn't discriminate against women working. You can take her anywhere to find a job. Even if you have to farm in the village, you won't starve to death."

"How can other places compare with Qingli Villa!" Having lived at the foot of Qingli Villa for so many years, she had looked up countless times and envied the women who went in and out of there. Tan Hehua really wanted to go in and see what it looked like inside.

I heard there was a backyard there, where they kept a group of pretty girls who did nothing all day. If only she could go in there...
