Su Yan's eyes darkened slightly. "I hope he can come to his senses so that our family can live a good life. If he still can't see things clearly, then we don't need this father of ours."

Li Juan was startled by these words and before she could react, a shout came from the doorway.

"Su Lei, Su Lei! I just saw your aunt coming towards your house!"

Gou Dan, Su Lei's good friend, rushed in to deliver the news: "Brother Su Zhi is here too."

Li Juan's anger flared up instantly, and she cursed, "Those two sons of bitches! I haven't even settled accounts with them yet, and they've already delivered themselves to my doorstep!"

After saying that, he rushed out.

Su Yan had recovered her strength, and she immediately got out of bed and followed after her, fearing that Li Juan might do something irreversible in a moment of impulsiveness.

Sure enough, when they arrived in the courtyard, Su Zhi and his mother Zhang Yu sat down without any ceremony.

Li Juan, hands on her hips, roared, "You two shameless dogs, get the hell out of here! Seeing you makes my eyes sting with embarrassment."

The insults completely shattered Zhang Yugang's carefully crafted expression, causing his face to contort in pain.

Su Zhi's face was ashen, but he held back when he saw Su Yan, putting his clenched fist to his lips and coughing lightly.

Zhang Yu immediately snapped out of his thoughts, smiled broadly, and hooked his arm around Li Juan's to get closer to her: "Sister-in-law, what are you saying? I just brought Su Zhi here to apologize to Ayan."

As he spoke, he lifted the cloth covering the basket he had brought, revealing plump eggs and a piece of fatty and lean pork belly.

"Look, this is what I gave to Ayan to help her recover."

Zhang Yu tried to stuff the item into Su Yan's hand, but Su Yan dodged it without batting an eye and smiled, "I can't accept something for nothing, Aunt, I appreciate your kindness."

Su Yan could tell that the eldest son of the family was a smiling tiger.

Zhang Yu's face stiffened, and she began to have doubts.

This quiet, dullard, who usually can't even utter a fart in ages, actually dared to refuse her today?!

But when she thought about university places, she immediately understood.

That brat is probably still thinking about going to school!

"Su Yan, isn't it a good thing for you to give the spot to Su Zhi? After you get married, if a girl is bullied in her husband's family, Su Zhi will definitely help. Our eldest son's family will remember this kindness for a lifetime!"

After Zhang Yu finished speaking earnestly, she nudged her son with her elbow.

Su Zhi immediately put on a condescending smirk and said in a condescending manner, "Su Yan, as long as you are willing to give me your university spot, I will make sure that your family doesn't have to hand over grain or money every month."

He was determined to get this spot!

Even if Su Yan disagrees, that's fine.

At worst, we can use coercion and bribery; after all, Grandpa is on the side of the eldest branch of the family.

He's a money-losing loser, what's there to be afraid of?

Su Yan couldn't help but find it amusing. "You don't need to waste your time. I can't let Su Zhi take my place in school."

Although her tone was calm, it conveyed an invisible sense of power.

Su Zhi's expression changed instantly, and his tone turned gloomy: "Su Yan, don't you dare refuse a toast only to suffer the consequences."

"I'm telling you this right now: if you still dare to try and take advantage of these spots, I'll have no choice but to report you to the Education Bureau," Su Yan said calmly.

In her past life, she often walked among a group of cunning old foxes; it would be a joke if she were to be manipulated by this mother and son.

Anyway, there's nothing she can do to change things now that she's traveled through time.

Since that's the case, she has no choice but to take over the mess left by the original owner's family.

Su Zhi frowned.

This matter is not exactly aboveboard to begin with, and if it blows up, his future will be over!

Su Zhi was only a teenager, and he was easily intimidated.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu immediately dropped her pretense, glaring at her through gritted teeth and saying, "You wretched girl, I came here out of kindness to mediate, and you dare to show such disrespect to your aunt?"

"Whether you mean well or have ulterior motives, you know it in your heart." Su Yan curled her lips in a mocking smile. "My father is a fool, but I, Su Yan, am not."

Zhang Yu's expression twisted in pain as she stared at Su Yan, whose tongue had suddenly become sharp. "Fine! Su Yan, don't blame your aunt for not giving you a chance!"

After saying that, she grabbed her son and left.

Once outside, Su Zhicai asked, utterly bewildered, "Mom, if Su Yan won't give me a spot, how am I supposed to go to school?"

"What's your rush? That brat has taken some kind of medicine, she's so difficult to talk to." A ruthless glint flashed in Zhang Yu's eyes: "Go back and talk to your grandfather again, get him to intervene. If Su Yan doesn't agree, I have another way, but we can't use it unless absolutely necessary."

Anyway, the acceptance letter hasn't arrived yet, so there's still plenty of time.

If all else fails, we'll just have to die together!

Her son can't go to university, and that money-losing brat can't go either.

"Okay," Su Zhi replied absentmindedly, feeling somewhat uneasy inside.

Su Yan had no idea that the mother and son were still scheming about the quota.

She was pulled into the room by her mother and scrutinized by the closed door.

Li Juan looked her daughter up and down with suspicion, and asked with doubt, "Are you my daughter Su Yan?"

Su Yan was both amused and exasperated, and said helplessly, "Mother, what kind of question is that? Who else could I be but Su Yan?"

It's no wonder Li Juan was suspicious. Not only was the original owner introverted, but she also couldn't even speak properly.

Looking at how confidently she confronted the first wife just now, it was truly astonishing.
