then said, “I’ve had nothing to do these past few days, so I went to the dock to turn around and welcome the fleet.”Li Lao San quickly chimed in, "Okay, get me one too, let's go together."Without men...Li Jia-yi sneered, without a word, he raised his foot and kicked him in the back of the head.
Guoqiang was in so much pain that he immediately fainted and fell silent...
Inside the tent, a deathly silence reigned for a moment.
Several wounded soldiers instinctively ducked their heads.
They had all heard of General Li's superhuman strength and remarkable abilities, but they were not part of General Li's sea expedition and had never seen him in person.
Unexpectedly, today of all days, I was fortunate enough to have my doubts resolved...
Sun Junyi wasn't afraid at all. He coughed twice and recounted what had just happened.
He was an elderly bachelor, and after Coral came to the field hospital, she took good care of him.
He was also very grateful and couldn't help but say a few words for Coral.
"General Li, please don't mind me speaking out of turn. If Coral Girl continues to stay in the field hospital, it won't be appropriate. If you are sincere, please arrange a place for her as soon as possible."
Li Jia-yi nodded, making no attempt to defend himself, only offering a bow of gratitude, then he tugged on Coral's arm and walked out.
Outside the tent, more people had gathered by now. Suddenly, Li Jia Yi with his cold face appeared, and everyone felt a little awkward.
Especially the army commander in charge of the wounded camp, who was also quite familiar with Li Jiayi on a daily basis.
The other day, Li Jia sent some snacks over, and he even snagged a few.
At this moment, he steeled himself and stepped forward, asking, "General Li, what's happened Do you need my help to deal with it"
Li Jia Yi nodded, not at all being polite.
He pointed inside the tent and said, "Guoqiang has recovered from his injuries. Don't stay at the campsite anymore."
This person's conduct is deplorable, insulting the female doctor who tended to his wounds. It is truly shameful.
"If this gets out, the reputation of our Hai Lan Army, which we fought so hard to earn, will be tarnished by him."
This statement has escalated today's argument to a whole new level!
Then, both the general and all the onlookers, soldiers included, changed their expressions. They put away their nonchalant mood and became serious.
The subordinate immediately replied: "General Li, please rest assured, I will investigate thoroughly and handle it fairly.
"If this kid truly has no shame and disgraces the Hailan Army, I will definitely make sure he gets what's coming to him!"
Li Jia-yi bowed his thanks, then picked up the package from the ground and turned to call out to Coral, "Follow me!"
Having said that, he strode to the small tent and pulled aside the curtain before going inside.
Corall hesitated for a moment, then hung her head and followed him in. She still flipped the flap of the tent up, so people outside could see inside.
She had already lost her reputation and was no longer afraid of what others said.
But General Li failed.
Such a good person, he is destined to become a shining war god admired by all, she can't drag him down...
Li Jia-yi glanced at the empty doorway, but his heart felt heavy.
He took a deep breath, placed the package on the bed, and said, "These are everyday necessities carefully prepared by my grandmother and Aunt Four. Though not valuable, they are very practical."
Coral hastily bowed and thanked him, her long neck drooping low, silent and still, a stark contrast to her earlier demeanor.
If the one before was a gravely ill tiger fighting fiercely against the wolves, then this girl before him is like a cat that has retracted its claws, carrying a hint of apprehension and unease.
He thought for a moment and then said, “It’s not your fault what happened just now. If there are people like that again, you should fight back, don't be polite!”
Coral suddenly raised its head, and a spark appeared in the depths of its lifeless eyes.
The woman was typically quiet and gentle. She not only beat someone up but also rode on top of a man…
General Li didn't mind, he even said it wasn't her fault...
Li Jia yi saw her like this, his heart ached slightly.
But he didn't know how to persuade her, so he stomped around on the ground in frustration. Finally, he decided to be honest with her.
"Coral girl, I've loved martial arts since I was little. I'm a rough person and not good at those subtle and roundabout things. Let me just say it straight!
You single-handedly stormed the bandits' lair to avenge your family. I think you are courageous and decisive!
During your time at the field hospital, you took good care of the wounded brothers with all your heart. You were much better than those delicate little girls!
"I admire you, and I want to marry you!"
"Besides, we saved each other's lives and fell into the water together. Most of your grievances and mistreatment were also because of me. I have to take responsibility for taking care of you."
Of course, I have my own selfish desires. I think that with your strength, after you get married, you can also support me in continuing to fight the Japanese pirates.
"Should the worst happen to me, and I die at sea, you must take my place in honoring our grandmother and father, and caring for my younger sister! "
"So, if you think I'm not bad, not too shabby, then marry me."
Coral was so shocked that her mouth dropped open. Her face flushed red, and her heart pounded like a drum in her chest.
It was as if she could hear each word clearly, but when they were put together, she couldn't understand the meaning.
General Li liked her, wanted to...wanted to marry her!
Li Jia yi waited for a long time but didn't receive a response from Coral, and he began to think she didn't like him. A trace of disappointment appeared in his eyes, but he still said: "If you don't like me, and don't want to marry me, that's okay, but you can't stay at this wounded soldier camp anymore."
I'll have someone at home arrange a different job for you, enough to support yourself.
"You can use my name to get by out there for now, so that nobody will bully you, until you find your footing or a suitable man."
Having said that, he turned and was about to leave.
"General Li!" Coral reached out and grabbed Li JiaYi's sleeve, tears welling up in her eyes instantly.
Just now, facing a barrage of insults and vicious words, desperately trying to drag her into the mud, she truly felt despair.
She couldn't imagine how to handle it when the rumors spread again.
Continue to live under the guidance of others, or endure a miserable marriage and be tormented by villains for a lifetime.
Whatever it was, she didn't want to endure it any longer.
She truly wished to die, to go to the underworld and find her parents and family!
But at the crucial moment, General Li appeared again.
Just like last time, this man reached out and pulled her out of hell, shielding her behind him.
Her broad shoulders, like a mountain, shielded her from all storms.
She couldn't help but start to become greedy.
Was it heaven that couldn't bear her loneliness, sending this same person to save her twice
Shouldn't she be a little more selfish, a little more greedy...
She choked back sobs, her teeth chattering, but she still managed to call out, "General Li, I... I like you. I want to marry you!"
But I'm afraid of implicating you. My whole family died, they said it was because of me. I don't want to harm you!
“I... I know you are a good person, and your family is good too. You don't look down on me, but...but..."
She desperately wanted to explain, but her words were jumbled and stumbling, tears streaming down her face.
Jiayi was at a loss for words, her tears leaving him speechless. He wanted to pull up his sleeve and wipe her eyes but hesitated, unsure what to do. He could only softly console her.
"That... Coral girl, don't cry.
I don't dislike you, I mean what I say. I thought you didn't like me!
"You don't have to be afraid of those baseless rumors, our family doesn't believe them. "
My grandma always said, a person's life is something they have to earn for themselves, it's not something decided by someone else just talking.
"From now on, as long as you wholeheartedly live with me and treat my family well, our family will be your support!"two thousand catties wouldn't be difficult."This adds up to four or five thousand jin a day, with a profit of five or six liang."It's not a lot, but over a month it's more than one hundred taels, enou...
