The system sound and speaking accent at the beginning are the voice of the male god that she likes most in the game, but how to say it, it sounds good, but sometimes it makes people feel that it lacks a bit of popularity.

His angry look now made Shen Cui feel that he was a real person... like a programmer who had really become bald due to working overtime.

Shen Cui couldn't help but laugh out loud.

Zhou, who was standing next to her, saw her laughing while thinking about something and gave her a slightly puzzled look.

Chen Cui stopped smiling, and remembered the book Lao Buyu wanted when she left the old house, so she opened the system mall to browse.

The thing that is most abundant in the system mall is various textbooks in this world.

In the section of enlightenment reading materials alone, apart from the three books given to Chen Cui, there are also "Youxue Qionglin", "Di Zi Gui", "A Thousand Poems", "Gu Wen Guan Zhi", "Three Hundred Tang Poems", "Prosody Enlightenment", "Wen Zi Meng Qiu", "Enlarged Collection of Wise Sayings", etc.

Like the hair teaching aids before the system, each book will produce a small random gain. A book costs 10 points.

Chen Cui couldn't help but mutter: [The teaching aids were given to me for free before, and now I have to spend shopping points to buy them? What if a task is issued later, asking my son Erpang to read a certain book, but I have already bought it in advance and asked him to study it, will my shopping points be refunded? 】

No matter what Shen Cui said now, the system would not be surprised, so it just replied calmly: [The system does not have such a mechanism to return shopping points. If the host is worried about this, he or she does not have to buy it. After all, the host already knows that if the training object studies the books of this world, it can also gain benefits. The outputs of the system can only help the training subjects to achieve twice the result with half the effort, but they are not indispensable. 】

[Then doesn't this bring us back to the previous topic? A handwritten copy costs several cents, so how can a set of them be considered buying books? Just cut my flesh! You see, you can even adjust the order of task progress. Can you give me a discount? 】

The system didn't answer, but just popped up a window several times larger than usual, showing her 200 balance points, showing that she could definitely afford it now! Protesting that the host is bargaining with the system even though there is a surplus!

First the sound was out of tune, and now there was such a big pop-up window. Shen Cui quickly said: [Don’t be so excited, am I not discussing this with you? If it's not possible, then it's not possible. If the workload is really that heavy and you feel too tired, it’s okay to postpone it for two days. 】

[Well, actually it’s not the question of whether or not I’ll be tired as the host mentioned. 】The system's voice became calmer, but still a little listless.【It's just that this is the first time I've encountered such a situation, so I have no experience and am a little flustered. 】

[Doesn’t your system contain a huge number of categories, and then distribute them to various dimensions? 】

[Yes, the system has cooperated with tens of thousands of hosts, but none of the previous hosts have done anything similar. Moreover, this dimension's 'Imperial Examination Raising System' was put into use for the first time, and it had never existed before. 】

[Thousands and thousands of people didn’t think of fleecing you... No, they didn’t think of helping you fix the loophole? 】

The system was speechless, and Shen Cui later figured it out herself.

Maybe those people were not very lucky, and they encountered system branches such as apocalypse survival, wilderness survival, villain assassination, or more casual ones, where the female supporting role got slapped in the face.

Compared with them, who were facing life and death at any time and had to be cautious at every step, she was much more relaxed.

Moreover, everyone is different. When most people encounter the system, they will probably only think about completing the task and getting the reward.

Since the rewards she received could not be used on herself, she naturally had to seek some benefits for herself from other places. If she could buy useful things in the mall through the system shopping point, she might not be so obsessed with making money and improving her life.

Because what she was thinking was related to the system, the system read her thoughts.

[What the host thinks does seem to make sense.] I will respond and add rewards to the host as appropriate later. This cub-raising system only requires the host to serve the system, but everything provided by the mall is for the objects of cultivation. It is indeed easy to reduce the host's enthusiasm for completing tasks. 】

This really surprised Shen Cui, and she immediately asked: [You can still react to this? Not only can you change the task progress, but you can also modify the rewards set by the system? Do you have high authority? Are you a 'senior programmer' of the system, the kind who can modify the 'source code'? 】

The system simply shut its mouth. Although according to interstellar regulations, it could tell the host some knowledge about the system at an appropriate time, but based on past experiences, its intuition told it that the more the current host knew, the more dangerous his situation would be in the future!

Unexpectedly, his evasive response made Shen Cui feel that she was right.

This was a pleasant surprise. The matched system was not only extremely generous and easy to talk to, but also seemed to be quite capable?

[Brother Tongzi, I’m serious.] If it's really difficult, it's okay to delay it for a few days. I am also a working man, so we should understand each other. Although I don’t know if your emotions will affect your body like humans, it is definitely beneficial to keep a good mood. 】

[Host, please don't give me a strange title. 】The system said this, but there was a hint of smile in its voice unconsciously, [I also apologize to the host. I shouldn’t have been so excited just now. The host doesn't have to feel any psychological burden, although your behavior does make me feel a little difficult. Using the host's words will increase my workload. But it is my responsibility to serve the host, fix loopholes, and improve system rules. In the long run, this is beneficial to the system, and the host is also helping me. 】

After saying this, he paused again and said, "I apologize to the host again. I shouldn't have such personal emotions. So to compensate, I will speed up...】

[As compensation,] Chen Cui immediately interjected, [Can you give me a copy of "Youxue Qionglin"? 】

system:【……】

Well, what he said just now about asking the host not to feel any psychological burden was indeed pure unnecessary nonsense.

…………

As the night was getting dark, Mu Erpang came back from outside. He was holding a candlestick with a special candle in it, so he didn't have to worry about bumping into things while walking at night.

Zhou was still in the main house with Shen Cui, who was bored and browsing the system mall in her mind, while Zhou was doing needlework nearby.

Seeing him come back, Zhou first asked him if he was hungry or cold.

The night wind in early spring was chilly. Although the old house was only a few steps away, Mu Erpang still felt cold in his hands and feet.

But his eyes were burning at this time, and he smiled and replied, "I'm not hungry, I've already eaten at the master's place. It's a little cold, but it's okay, I'll sit on the kang for a while and I'll be warm."

Zhou put down her needlework and stood up, went to the stove to get some hot water, poured him a bowl of it to drink, and then, just like she had done for Chen Cui before, poured him a basin of hot water for soaking his feet.

Mu Erpang immediately said, "Don't worry, sister-in-law, I can do it myself."

Zhou smiled gently and told him to soak his feet quickly, saying that cold soles of the feet would not only make him sleep poorly at night, but also make him more likely to get sick.

Because Mu Erpang had not grown up yet and there were not many rules in the countryside, he did not need to avoid Zhou. After thanking Zhou again, he took off his shoes and socks and put his chubby little feet in the basin.

After letting out a comfortable sigh, Mu Erpang looked at his mother with bright eyes and started talking, "Mom, the teacher is really amazing. Although I have read the "Three Character Classic" at the beginning and can recite it, I didn't know there are so many truths in it."

Seeing that the mother and son were about to have a private conversation, Zhou put away her needlework basket and prepared to go back to the house.

Chen Cui waved her hand to tell her not to get up, and moved the candlestick that Mu Erpang had brought back and placed on the kang table towards her, "You don't have to leave. This candle is bright, so you can do needlework here without straining your eyes."

After saying that, Shen Cui turned to look at Mu Erpang and listened to him soaking his feet while excitedly talking about what he had learned tonight.

"The teacher not only taught me the truth, but also told me stories... No, the teacher said that it was called an allusion. The first sentence of the Three Character Classic, 'In the past, Meng's mother chose a good neighborhood', is about the allusion of "Meng's mother moved three times"..."

Just like a kid in later generations who can’t wait to share what he saw and heard at school with his mother on the way home from school, Mu Erpang talked for several quarters of an hour without stopping.

Of course, he did this not just for sharing, but also to let his mother know that she had spent a lot of time and effort to find such a good teacher for him, and he was really learning seriously and would not let her down!

In fact, even if Mu Erpang didn't say it, Shen Cui knew that he was studying very seriously.

Because the system kept popping up reminders throughout the night, sometimes it was IQ +1, sometimes it was memory +1, a total of 5 attribute points increased.

However, since Mu Erpang was willing to speak, Shen Cui was naturally willing to listen, and the process of repeating it could also be regarded as a review for her fat son.

Zhou, who was standing by, was originally concentrating on her needlework, but she stopped at some point and became so absorbed in listening that she could no longer think of doing anything else.

They kept talking until it was time to go to bed. Zhou had added hot water to the footbath several times, and it was about to overflow. Fatty Mu yawned and said, "It's a pity that it's getting late. The teacher talked a lot all night, and I can't finish it all at once."

Shen Cui said it was okay, "There's still a long way to go, you have plenty of time to share your learning experience with us."

He had to get up early the next day to read in the morning, so Shen Cui and Zhou naturally said nothing more and went back to their rooms to rest.

Mu Erpang rushed to get off the kang to pour out the foot washing water, then washed himself. He fell asleep in less than a quarter of an hour after getting into bed.

Chen Cui blew out the candle and carefully measured it. The candle had been burning all night and was already one third shorter.

But in the system, the numerical value shows that its current loss is only 0.09%.

If you use it most of the night every day, it can last about three years, so it is indeed durable, and the 200 shopping points are not wasted at all.

Just when Shen Cui lay down and was about to fall asleep, a notification popped up on the system.

[System notification: Enlightenment readings such as "Youxue Qionglin", "Di Zi Gui", "A Thousand Poems", "Gu Wen Guan Zhi", "300 Tang Poems", "Sound and Rhythm Primer", "Wen Zi Meng Qiu", "Zeng Guang Xian Wen" and other enlightenment readings are being packaged for promotion, with a total of 100 shopping points. 】

[Discount period: 1 day.] 】
