Global Desertification: I am accumulating merit in another world

Even if only Zhu'er could enter, the benefits would be immeasurable. You know, if the dignitaries there could easily let a little bit of things slip through their fingers, it would be enough for the mother and daughter to live a worry-free, prosperous and stable life for a long time.

However, facing this unreasonable woman in front of him, Lin Chen's heart was already filled with impatience and disgust. He really didn't want to continue to entangle with her, so his face sank and he said coldly:

"That's enough! Take the child back to me right now! Look at the state you are in now, how disgraceful!"

Tan Hehua was unwilling to give in, and she opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something to argue. However, at this moment, she inadvertently saw a group of people walking out of the village gate in big strides.

The people in the group were all dressed in gorgeous clothes and looked very impressive. However, the most eye-catching ones were the two little girls in the team who were as delicate as fairy children.

They were beautiful with delicate features, skin as white as snow, and big, lively eyes that seemed to be able to speak, making them unforgettable.

Tan Hehua was shocked and instantly guessed the identities of the two little girls - in the entire Qingli Villa, the only children of this age and with such outstanding temperament and appearance are Princess Ruyi and Princess Jixiang!

Tan Hehua rushed forward excitedly and shouted, "May the two princesses be blessed with good health!"

The group of people were blocked by her, and Jixiang was even frightened by her and hid behind someone.

Lin Chen also reacted quickly, and immediately knelt down with his guards, "Greetings to the King! Greetings to Princess Jixiang and Princess Ruyi!"

What? The king is here too?

Tan Hehua was so excited that she pushed the child forward.

Zhu Er stumbled after being pushed by her, and hurriedly saluted, "Greetings to the king and the two princesses."

"Get up, everyone," Shen Lishu looked at Tan Hehua a little confused, "Who are you?"

Lin Chen hurriedly said, "Lord, they are Tan Hehua and her daughter."

Tan Hehua... This name was a little unfamiliar to Shen Lishu. He pondered over it for a long time before finally digging out some impressions of this person from the depths of his memory.

There was nothing he could do. He had so many important things to deal with every day that he had no time to care about the little people he had saved.

"Oh! I remember now, it's you, Tan Hehua." Shen Lishu showed an expression of sudden enlightenment, but there was still a hint of doubt in his eyes, and then asked:

"But what's going on with you guys?"

When Tan Hehua saw Shen Lishu's face clearly, she was also confused, "You are not... not the one in the village back then..."

Tan Hehua widened her eyes and looked at everything in front of her in disbelief, her heart feeling as if a huge storm had risen.

However, the shock did not last long and was soon replaced by great joy.

At this moment, her face was filled with a bright smile, an expression of joy that could not be concealed.

She originally just hoped that her daughter could have a stable job, even if it was just as a maid.

But now, when she saw new possibilities, her deep expectations for her daughter's future changed dramatically in an instant.

"How can my daughter be just a maid?" Tan Hehua thought to herself, with a determined and yearning look in her eyes. She began to imagine her daughter wearing gorgeous clothes and living a superior life, and the more she thought about it, the more excited she became.

He hurriedly said, "Lord, look, this is my daughter. She is well-behaved and sensible. If you don't mind, can I bring her with me to serve you tea and water?"

"I don't need a maid." Shen Lishu refused without thinking.

Who the hell wants to be a maid?

Tan Hehua stood where she was, feeling a mixture of anxiety and helplessness in her heart. She couldn't help but stamp her feet secretly, as if she wanted to vent her inner anxiety in this way.

However, after a moment, she took a deep breath, tried to calm herself down, and continued:

"Sir, it's okay if you can't take her as a maid! I just hope you can have mercy and let her follow you.

Even if she only learns a little bit of skills and knowledge, it will be a very valuable asset for this child! In the future... in the future, she can also make a living with these skills and be able to stand firmly in the world.

Alas, it's all my fault as a mother. I failed to create better conditions for her, and instead became a burden on her life!" When she said this, Tan Hehua's eyes became moist, and her voice was slightly choked.

Then there is even less need for it.

Shen Lishu seldom has anyone to serve her, and it is even more impossible for her to have a stranger by her side. She has so many secrets that she only feels at ease when someone close to her uses her.

"I don't need anyone around me. If you want her to work as a maid at Qingli Villa, wait until there is a vacancy before taking the assessment."

After that, Shen Lishu asked Lin Chen, "Is the horse ready?"

"My lord, everything is fine." Lin Chen asked someone to bring a few horses over.

Tan Hehua was unwilling to give up and pushed her daughter hard, "You piece of shit, go and beg the king. She saved you when you were a child!"

The little girl was pushed to her knees on the ground with a "thump". She stumbled and said, "Please, my Lord..."

Shen Lishu glanced at her calmly, "It's no use begging me. I still say the same thing. If you want to enter the villa, you should take the assessment seriously."

After saying that, he jumped on the horse, not wanting to waste any more time.

Jixiang Ruyi was also arranged to get on the carriage, and the team quickly drove away.

Tan Hehua stamped her feet, her face full of unwillingness. She knew very well that the test of Qingli Villa was not something that ordinary people could pass. Its difficulty was simply staggering!

Even if she was lucky enough to pass this rigorous assessment and enter the manor, she would probably only be able to start as a lowly servant girl. Thinking of this, He Hua couldn't help but feel bitter.

How could she be willing!

After the people walked away, Zhu'er raised her head and glanced at her indifferently with a mocking expression. Where was the cowardly look from before?

idiot!

It seems I have to find a way to get in by myself.

On the other side, Shen Lishu rushed to Phoenix City at full speed.

The next day, she sat in the palace and accepted the kneeling homage of all the court officials. From then on, the monarch of Qingli Kingdom returned, and she would slowly take all the power back into her own hands.

At night, Shen Xingshu carried a large pile of memorials and placed them on Shen Lishu's desk. "Your Majesty, I have already reviewed these memorials. Please take another look."

Shen Lishu's face immediately fell, "No need, just correct it."

Shen Xingshu lowered his eyes and acted like a subject. "We helped you take care of Qingli during these years when you were away, but now that you are back, these things should be returned to you."

"Don't worry, I have already made annotations. You can study first. When you have learned enough, I will not make any more annotations."

Shen Lishu felt a headache looking at the memorial that was more than a meter tall. "Zuo Xiang, you have done a good job these years. How about... you continue to do it? I will go bald with so many memorials."

Shen Xingshu couldn't hold it in any longer, so he lifted his bangs and said through gritted teeth, "You also know that you will become bald! Look at me, I haven't even got a wife yet, but I'm already bald!"

Shen Lishu: …

"Hey, hey, put it down quickly and pay attention to your image."

"Hmph!" Shen Xingshu flicked his sleeves and left.

Shen Lishu didn't dare to suppress her good employee anymore, but... she really didn't want to review the documents... She looked at Xiao Mu who was making tea beside her.

"How about... you come..."

Xiao Mu didn't even raise his head, "I am the ruler of another country, it is not appropriate for me to participate in your government affairs."

"Okay..." Shen Lishu pursed his lips, sat down resignedly and started reading the memorial. After a while, he couldn't help but complain.

"What the hell is this? Are you asking me? Do I need you to ask?"

"What's this? I was asked if I had eaten today, but Shen Xingshu said I had!"

"This is just flattery and a lot of nonsense, but there is nothing serious."

Shen Lishu was so angry that he threw all the memorials aside and picked up the next one. "Rumors are spreading in the city that the ruler is a monster from another world who will destroy the whole world?"

Shen Lishu looked at the name and said, "It was written by Chu Qingci. Hiss! Where is he serving as an official now?"

She hasn't been back for many years, and there have been a lot of personnel changes in Qingli Kingdom, so she can't remember clearly.

He kept this in mind and continued reading the memorial.
