The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing

"Hui, Huiei? Are you saying your name is Huiei?"

"What's wrong? Does Older Sister know me?"

"Hmm… should I say I know you, or should I say I don't?"

This is truly a resounding name.

Knowing her was something from two lifetimes ago, and the way we knew each other was also slightly different. In this life, I heard news of her when she was born, but I've never met her before.

Huiei is a child from the Piao Sanlang family.

Now that I think about it, it seems I can understand why she's so thin and malnourished.

"What's going on with such an ambiguous way of speaking?"

Perhaps Zunzun's "as if I know you" tone was a bit strange, leading Huiei to think he didn't want her to farm together. She quickly said, "Please don't judge me by my appearance. Actually, I'm very strong! Digging soil and other heavy physical work are no problem for me! If you don't believe me, I can demonstrate!"

After speaking, she grabbed a corn stalk and tried to pull it upwards with force.

"Wait, wait! I believe you, I believe you, okay! Idiot, let go!" Zunzun immediately rushed forward anxiously, pressing down on Huiei's hands.

To actually use pulling up crops to demonstrate how strong she is, her thought process is quite peculiar.

"How is it? Do you believe me now?"

"I believe you."

"Really?"

"Really."

"No, you clearly don't believe me. I must pull it out!"

"Enough! If you keep pulling, this corn plant will die! If it dies, it won't grow plump corn, and we won't be able to fill our stomachs with it, ahhhh!!!"

Unable to fill her stomach was like a sensitive word, and Huiei immediately stopped pulling with force. Then, she stuck the corn stalk back in, and finally, as if she wasn't reassured, she forcefully pushed it downwards again.

Zunzun's face couldn't help but twitch.

For some reason, he always felt like he had made a wrong decision.

"In, in any case, I'll now teach you what you need to pay attention to when farming. The first rule is that crops are very delicate. If you're not careful, you might cause them to die, so you must gently care for them, understand?"

"Yes, I understand."

Huiei answered very decisively.

Her attitude was very good, but the things she did gave people a headache.

No, a good attitude is already pretty good.

Just teach her about farming knowledge bit by bit, gradually make her useful, and at worst, she can be a tool who listens to instructions.

"Well, in that case, let's not delay. Let's reclaim the land adjacent to the cornfield today."

The land that Zunzun had reclaimed last autumn had been left for a winter, spring, and half a summer, causing it to be almost half-abandoned. If they wanted to use this land again, they would have to repeat the previous steps.

But the good news was that, since Zunzun had already laid the foundation, tilling the soil again wouldn't be as difficult as when he first reclaimed it, which would undoubtedly make their work much easier.

Even for Huiei, it wouldn't be a problem.

Only—

Grumble grumble~~ ~ ~ ~

Suddenly, a wail came from Huiei's flat little belly.

The little loli covered her stomach but didn't show the slightest shyness or embarrassment. Instead, she said nonchalantly:

"Hungry again? It's okay, I've experienced this feeling many times. From now, I should be able to last about 7 hours, after which I'll fall into a semi-conscious state… No, considering that I'll be doing physical labor later, I can probably only last 3 hours."

"No, no, no, I wouldn't let you work on an empty stomach."

Speaking of which, how did she come to these conclusions? She wouldn't have experimented on herself, right? No, given her poverty and lack of food, she must have been forced to learn these things.

Zunzun took out the lunch rice balls that Older Sister had prepared and handed them to Huiei.

"Eat."

"Can I?"

"Of course. I said I wouldn't let you go hungry."

"…Thank you."

Huiei took the rice ball and then tore into it without any pretense, chewing and swallowing. In just a few bites, she swallowed the not-small rice ball, then picked up the next one and repeated the process, eating three rice balls in the blink of an eye. Zunzun was taken aback by her ravenous appearance.

Has this child not eaten for days?

No!

Didn't she bring back a lot of corn yesterday?

When Zunzun became curious and asked, he learned that Huiei hadn't eaten all the corn. Instead, she had saved some as a reserve supply.

He didn't expect her to have a sense of storage.

Zunzun felt amused and annoyed.

When there was only one rice ball left, Huiei's hand, which was reaching for the rice ball, froze in mid-air. She wanted to eat it but seemed a little embarrassed.

"Eat it."

After receiving permission, Huiei didn't stand on ceremony and started gnawing on the rice ball.

Because of his body, Zunzun had a large appetite, so Older Sister made the rice balls bigger and more plentiful, enough for two adults to eat. But in the end, they were all eaten by the little loli.

Seeming to feel bad for eating it all, Huiei handed the rice ball to Zunzun when only a small half was left.

"I don't need it…"

The newest and most complete novels are at 69shuba. First release!

Zunzun decisively refused, but Huiei didn't listen. Instead, she still put the rice ball to his mouth.

Seeing the little loli's stubborn expression, he didn't understand what she was insisting on, but he still ate the small half of the rice ball that had been gnawed on in one bite.

The corners of Huiei's mouth turned up slightly.

After resting for a while, the midday sun gradually set, and the temperature wasn't as high. It was time to work.

"Huiei, when I was little, I saw a saying in a book."

"When you were little?"

The little loli looked at the 'Older Sister' who wasn't much older than herself, with a surprised expression.

"Ahem, I mean when I was even younger. Don't interrupt."

Zunzun coughed and said, "When I was little, I saw a saying in a book called \u003cHe who does not work, neither shall he eat\u003e, which means that people who don't work don't have anything to eat. So, in order for us to be able to fill our stomachs and not go hungry anymore, let's work hard!"

"In order not to go hungry anymore!"

"For a better tomorrow!"

"For a better tomorrow!"

Whether it was Zunzun's slogan that worked, or the thought of not going hungry anymore, Huiei worked very hard and diligently.

Zunzun used a hoe to reclaim the half-abandoned land, while Huiei followed behind him, cleaning up the debris that was turned up. The two cooperated very well, and in less than half a day, they had reclaimed the planned land.

As expected, the decision to add another person was correct.

1+1 \u003e 2

At this rate, they could reclaim another piece of land.

Zunzun was full of confidence.

It probably wouldn't work today, though, because Huiei was kneeling on the side, panting. Her worn-out skirt and pants were covered in mud, and her pale face was full of exhaustion.

I forgot.

The little loli's body isn't very good.

Plus, Zunzun has a cheat, so Huiei being able to keep up was already her forcing herself. It seems that he still needs to take more care of her in the future.

"Okay, let's stop here for today."

The energetic Zunzun carried the hoe on his shoulder and said to Huiei, who was resting, "Be sure to come tomorrow, okay? I'll also prepare delicious rice balls."

Whether it was the rice balls that aroused the little loli's appetite, Zunzun had only taken two steps when he heard a wail from behind.

It was this wail that suddenly reminded Zunzun that Huiei didn't seem to have anything to eat.

Could it be that she's going to go hungry tonight?

Wait, wouldn't that mean she'd only be able to eat rice balls tomorrow at noon, and she'd still have to do physical labor before that?

He completely forgot that Huiei's family still had the corn that she had stolen and stored away earlier.

He thought for a moment.

"You, do you want to come to my house for dinner?"

He invited the little loli.
