"How much?" She was obviously impatient.
System【10,000.】
Rong Xi couldn't believe his ears. This system was clearly taking advantage of the situation. "How much is it? Ten thousand? Why don't you just rob it?"
System [Rong Xi, our fertility system has expensive items except for the fertility pills. Your medical kit is similar to this. Tell me if it works or not.]
Rong Xi really couldn't bear it anymore. She really wanted to dive into the system interface, grab that annoying Wangzai system, and give it a good beating.
"No, five thousand." Rong Xi frowned and tried to bargain with the system.
The system, however, took its time to look at its nonexistent nails and said in a slightly teasing tone, "Hey, why don't you look at other props?"
The tone seemed as if he was deliberately teasing Rong Xi, and there was no intention of lowering the price at all.
"Eight Thousand, System, don't force me to slap you."
Rong Xi gnashed her teeth in anger, almost breaking them. She felt her patience was almost worn out. This damn system.
The system remains calm. [Minimum 9,000.]
"Okay, hurry up." Rong Xi had no choice but to compromise.
At this time, she was already on her way to her father-in-law's study. Time was so tight that it felt like a ferocious beast was chasing her. Most importantly, she had no other choice.
The system received a satisfactory response: "Okay, Rong Xi, I'll arrange it right away."
At that moment, it was as if all the medical knowledge had been read over in her mind thousands of times, and every detail was clear and deeply imprinted in her memory.
Rong Xi, who was originally being dragged around, now seemed like a different person.
She suddenly walked with vigor and confidence, each step firm and powerful.
Qiu Shuang behind her was confused, with her eyes wide open. She had no idea what was wrong with the girl. Why did she suddenly become like a different person?
"Girl, wait for me."
Qiu Shuang shouted as she trotted, struggling to catch up with Rong Xi. After a while, they arrived at Jiang Zhimei's study.
This time, Rong Xi was no longer as timid as before. When he looked at his parents-in-law, there was a bit more confidence in his eyes.
I thought that no matter whether the next question from my father-in-law and mother-in-law was the Four Books or the Five Classics, or even the more difficult eight-legged essay, I would have no problem with it. After all, I had just gained a lot of knowledge from the system.
"Come here, Auntie. I'm ready." Rong Xi said confidently, his voice much louder than usual.
Jiang Zhimei was full of doubts. Where did this girl, who usually acted like a naughty monkey, get the confidence from?
Just now someone came to report that she was hesitant to come, and now it has become like this. She looked at Rong Xi, a trace of inquiry in her eyes.
One of them sat calmly, while the other stood confidently, creating a slightly strange atmosphere.
"Are you really ready?" Jiang Zhimei asked with a raised eyebrow.
"I'm ready. No matter what the mother-in-law and mother-in-law want to check, it's fine." Rong Xi raised his chin slightly, his face full of confidence.
Jiang Zhimei raised the corner of her mouth, a sly look flashing in her eyes, "Then tell me, how many people are there in Dongchang County, how many women are there, and how many are still unmarried?"
"ha?!"
…
Rong Xi was stunned for a moment, his eyes widening as big as copper bells.
No, wasn't this an examination of the Four Books and Five Classics? Why were they suddenly asking about population? How could she possibly know that? She felt like a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head, her confidence instantly vanishing without a trace.
Jiang Zhimei knew she would act like this, and she found her bewildered look amusing. She just wanted to dampen Rong Xi's spirit and teach her not to be too conceited.
"Auntie, this is not within the scope of the college entrance examination."
Rong Xi said this aggrievedly, she was really about to throw a tantrum.
This is completely different from what she expected. What's the point of her spending so many points to buy this knowledge from the system? Is she really being taken advantage of?
Jiang Zhimei knew she would do this, and spoke just before she threw a tantrum.
"Yes, this isn't covered in the exam, but if you truly want to be an official, this is what you need to know. Staying current in the face of ever-changing circumstances and laying a solid foundation will keep you from losing your composure."
Jiang Zhimei paused for a moment, then continued earnestly, "The Western Liang Kingdom respects women and has enacted numerous laws to protect them from harm. Most officials who set exam questions focus on this, so whether it's the academy exam, the provincial exam, the metropolitan exam, or even the future palace exam, they all revolve around this. Do you understand?"
Rong Xi lowered her head. She really didn't consider these things. She only thought about dealing with the traditional exam content, but ignored these more important things.
"I understand." Rong Xi said in a low voice.
Jiang Zhimei told Rong Xi the question she had just asked, and then started the main topic of today.
Rong Xi answered all the questions about the Four Books and Five Classics, and even the policy essays tested in the provincial examinations.
She answered fluently, each point was clear and concise, and her arguments were very solid.
Jiang Zhi couldn't suppress her admiration in her eyes, and the corners of her mouth rose secretly a few times, but she didn't want to make Rong Xi proud, so she covered it up by sneezing while drinking tea.
"Auntie, are you feeling unwell?" Rong Xi asked with concern.
"It's okay, just continue." Jiang Zhimei coughed lightly and returned to her serious expression.
Jiang Zhimei's tone became so soft that Rong Xi was not used to it at all and always felt it was weird.
"Oh!" Rong Xi responded and continued to answer the question.
Rong Xi stayed in the study for two hours, and lunch was brought to the study by the servants.
Looking at Rong Xi's completed test paper, Jiang Zhimei was filled with joy and wanted to go out and set off firecrackers to celebrate. She wanted to tell everyone, who said that I, Jiang Zhimei, can't cultivate talents? Isn't this Rong Xi a good seedling?
"Good, good, very good. Xier has made real progress." Jiang Zhimei couldn't help but praise, a pleased smile on her face.
"I said I could definitely do it."
Rong Xi raised his chin, the system ate in silence, the parents-in-law were happy and trying not to laugh, and Uncle Li came up and started praising him.
"You did quite well on the test this time, but you absolutely must not be complacent. It just shows that you're just unwilling to study. Look at how long you've been studying, isn't that pretty good? Keep working hard, and you'll definitely pass the college entrance exam."
"Don't worry, Auntie. I will not let you down." Rong Xi patted her chest and promised. She thought she could leave the study room, but was stopped by Jiang Zhimei.
"Wait a moment, I have something to tell you." Jiang Zhimei's expression became a little solemn.
