Mu Yunchuan was very familiar with the way into the city.
But usually he would go straight to the academy.
It was almost the end of the year and the academy was on holiday, so Mu Yunchuan naturally didn't need to go to the academy, so he went to Shusheng Street next to the academy.
This street was built adjacent to Qingzhu Academy and has everything you need for food, clothing, housing and transportation. The most popular businesses are bookstores and teahouses.
As soon as Mu Yunchuan reached the street corner, he heard someone calling his name.
He stopped and looked up, and saw a young man in a brocade hat and a sable fur coat leaning on the railing and looking at him excitedly.
Seeing that Mu Yunchuan heard his call, the young man waved his hand to signal him to wait for him, and soon he ran down from the second floor.
"Yunchuan, why are you here? In the past, I invited you to come and have some fun, but you always refused. Today, we just happened to meet, so you must have a cup of tea with me before you leave."
Mu Yunchuan smiled helplessly and was actually pulled into the teahouse by the young man.
The young man was very generous and was just about to ask the waiter to pick out the best snacks in the building and bring them up, but then he remembered that Mu Yunchuan was a frugal and polite person. If I invite him today, he will definitely invite me back tomorrow. There was no need to let him spend money the next day, so he just asked the waiter to add a cup of hot tea.
After finishing a cup of hot tea, the young man was thinking about how to keep Mu Yunchuan for dinner, but he saw that Mu Yunchuan's brows were slightly furrowed, and he looked absent-minded.
"Yunchuan, what troubles have you encountered?"
Mu Yunchuan smiled ashamedly, "I taught you to see it."
…………
As for Chen Cui, after returning home, she immediately went into the house and called Mu Erpang to get up.
Unexpectedly, when the little fat boy heard his voice, he not only didn't move, but turned over and turned his back to her.
Time was running out, so Shen Cui said succinctly, "Er Pang, get up and read with mother for a while."
Mu Erpang still didn't move. Chen Cui, who was upset, anxiously lifted the quilt. Just as she was about to lose her temper, she was met with a crying face.
He cried so miserably, with tears streaming down his face, almost covering his entire fat face.
Although the child looks big, he is only ten years old after all. His father is missing and his mother has changed her mind. Although his brother is powerful, he obviously has no sympathy for his younger brother.
It wasn't him that made her anxious and angry, but the system task and the hero of the original book. Shen Cui adjusted her mentality, slowed down her tone, sat down next to him, and asked him, "Why are you crying?"
It would have been fine if she hadn't asked. When she asked, Mu Erpang immediately went from secretly sobbing to crying loudly, crying and saying, "My mother asked me to go out in such a cold weather, I was not feeling well, and you didn't care about me!"
Shen Cui was shocked when she heard this, and immediately touched his forehead, and sure enough, the temperature was a little higher than normal.
After all, she has never been a mother. She has been sleeping since Mu Erpang came back yesterday. Chen Cui just thought he was lazy and incubating eggs on the kang as usual. Later, the two of them were fighting over the package. That spirit, that strength... Chen Cui didn't realize that he was sick at all.
"Mother was sick and confused earlier, and I didn't expect that our second fat man was also sick." Feeling guilty, Shen Cui racked her brains to imitate the original body's usual tone to coax him, "Don't cry, mother will make you... candied eggs to eat later."
The sugar-coated eggs had a miraculous effect. Mu Erpang's thunderous crying gradually subsided, but he still held up two thick, short fat fingers and said with a twitch, "I want... two."
Shen Cui readily agreed, but looking at the imminent countdown in front of her, she still had to harden her heart: "Son, come and study."
Mu Erpang was also dumbfounded. He didn't expect his mother to change the subject so quickly. He said in a sobbing voice, "Mom, I can't read!"
Look how frightened the child is, he even utters dialect.
Chen Cui also knew that her behavior was indeed weird, but she had no choice but to twist a cool handkerchief and put it on his forehead, coaxing him, "It's very simple, just say one sentence and you repeat it."
Without waiting for Mu Erpang to object, Shen Cui continued, "Just study for a while, and I'll make you two sugar-coated eggs... No, three!"
Mu Erpang sucked his saliva and said nothing more.
“When a person is born, his nature is good.”
"Human Pig..."
“It’s the beginning of human beings!”
“…”
“…”
Fortunately, when the lazy son really started to read with her, the countdown in front of Shen Cui ended, and another dialog box "Novice Task in Progress" appeared.
Half an hour later, a mechanical sound rang in Shen Cui's ears.
[Newbie Task: Completed reading with my son for half an hour. 】
【Get reward: 100 shopping points.】 】
[The Imperial Examination Raising Cub System has been officially connected to the host consciousness. Do you want to enter the novice guide now? 】
At least she finished the novice mission, and Shen Cui let out a long sigh.
Fortunately, Mu Erpang has the mentality of a child. Otherwise, if it were any normal person, not to mention whether he would be suspicious about his illiterate mother suddenly taking him to school, if he is illiterate, he would definitely not accept such boring rote learning just for a few candied eggs.
Not sure if it was because her mood had changed, but when Shen Cui looked at Mu Erpang again, her gaze softened a little. She closed the book and let the drowsy Mu Erpang lie down.
At this moment, the light screen in front of her eyes showed new changes. Shen Cui ignored it for the time being and touched Mu Erpang's forehead first - after covering it with the cold handkerchief for a while, the blush on his face had completely faded.
There was still some cold-wind medicine left from the doctor's prescription. Shen Cui went to the kitchen, reduced the dosage by half and started to boil the medicine. She also took three eggs to make candied eggs for him.
She kept moving and began to look at the translucent light curtain that only she could see.
She chose "Yes" in her heart. At the same time, the novice guidance section of the "Imperial Examination Raising System" was also unfolding on the light screen.
[This system was developed from the M7898 Nebula and deployed to various planes to collect data. Adhering to the law of interstellar fairness, the host can choose to accept or divest this system. Once divested, it will be immediately sent back to the original world. 】
[Since the host's body in the original world has died suddenly, please consider carefully. 】
As long as Shen Cui was not a fool, she would know how to choose this clause. Naturally, she would immediately choose [Accept] after taking a look at it, and then go to the next page.
[This system will issue novice tasks after the host regains consciousness. Only after completing the novice tasks can this system be completely integrated with the host's consciousness. If it fails, it means that the host is not suitable for the survival rules of this world, and the system will be immediately removed and sent back to the original world. 】
Chen Cui thought: Although this system is tricky and puts the novice tasks before the novice guidance, fortunately the novice tasks are very simple. Even if she doesn't have a lazy son as a backup option, as long as she is thick-skinned enough and not afraid of offending the male protagonist of the original book, she can complete this task and achieve binding with the system.
Then she saw the next line -
[This system includes but is not limited to the following subsystem categories: female supporting role slapping system, concubine's daughter counterattack system, killer assassination system, wilderness survival system... no less than hundreds of categories. 】
Shen Cui: ...
It turned out that she was just lucky. If she had worse luck and had to go to another world to get another system, the novice mission would definitely not be so easy to complete!
Shen Cui quickly finished reading the regulations at the end.
All of them are texts introducing the system. The general meaning is that the system is bound to her and collects the required data. Similarly, the host can also benefit from the system - if she completes the task, the system will give points. Points can be used for shopping in the system mall.
This part of the content is not new to online literature lovers. What is new is that as long as she completes all the tasks, she can be free!
That's right, it's freedom. The spiritual body that the system refers to, which is what we often call the soul, can leave the physical body, and then ask the system to reshape the physical body and place itself in the plane it wants to go to.
Chen Cui has no ties to her original world, but that doesn't stop her from ardently loving the convenient and prosperous modern world.
Of course it would be best if we could go back!
Suppressing the urge in her pounding heart, Shen Cui followed the system's instructions and opened the data panel.
What came into view were the data of the original body, Shen Cuihua.
Name: Shen Cuihua
Age: 26
Physical fitness: 70 points (just recovered from a serious illness, better than most of the lower-class people in this world).
Height: 165cm
Weight: 60kg
Husband: Mu Cheng (missing)
Sons: Mu Yunchuan and Mu Hanshan.
Shen Cui glanced at the other data until she saw the column about her son, and her eyes paused.
Because the fonts of Mu Yunchuan and Mu Hanshan's names were different from the others, she moved her mind and two more pages popped up on the screen, which were the personal data of her two sons -
Similarly, the beginning was about the height and weight of the two people. Shen Cui couldn't help but hold her forehead because the second fat boy of the Mu family weighed 60kg, and he was only ten years old!
But fortunately, Mu Erpang's physical fitness is very good, and he scored 85 points! In this regard, the ordinary male protagonist's physical fitness is completely crushed!
Moreover, his current physical condition has become - (the short-term fever has passed, and he will recover after a short rest).
Chen Cui took the opportunity to turn off the small stove where the medicine was stewed.
Also, the two of them had one more basic data than her own: [Mood Value]. Mu Yunchuan's was 60 points (he seemed to be worried about something).
Chen Cui guessed that he was probably worried about Mu Cheng - after all, Mu Yunchuan was not yet the most powerful official who had to plan his future step by step. He was just a fifteen-year-old boy, and the sudden disappearance of his biological father would definitely affect his mood. And if the news of Mu Cheng's death really came, Mu Yunchuan would wait for three years before taking the imperial examination again.
Don’t underestimate these three years. Why did Mu Yunchuan wait until he was fifteen to decide to take the imperial examination?
It means having ambitious goals and wanting to win several prizes in a row and make a big splash.
Is it difficult for a poor family to produce a noble son? Disaster!
But in a dynasty, the number of officials who came from humble backgrounds was not as numerous as the grains of sand in the Ganges, but they were also too numerous to mention.
Only a talented person who is young and has won several first place in the imperial examinations can be recorded in the history books and leave his name in the history books.
Chen Cuile thought to herself that although her lazy cub's talent was a little lacking, he was easy to raise, had a strong physique, and didn't worry too much. Apart from anything else, he was very friendly to her, a novice cub-raiser, so she didn't have to worry about him dying due to her negligence!
Then Shen Cui went to look at Mu Erpang's mood value again, and was soon dumbfounded - Mu Erpang, who was lying next to her, had a mood value 10 points lower than Mu Yunchuan, only 50 points.
The system scores are based on a 100-point system, with 60 being the passing score. Mu Erpang’s mood value has been marked in red, and the system has also attached a line of small print, saying that once it falls below the passing score, it must be given sufficient attention!
The original owner had hidden the disappearance of his father from his own son. Mu Erpang really had the mentality of a child. When his mother said that his father was busy with business outside, that's why he didn't attend his brother's wedding, he actually believed it and said that his father must have bought him too many delicious and fun things and he had too much luggage, so he was delayed.
So logically speaking, he shouldn't be so depressed.
Could it be that Shen Cui misunderstood him? Although Mu Erpang looked stupid, he was actually very sensitive and had secretly noticed it a long time ago?
He just didn't want to make his mother even more sad, so he was sad secretly alone?
Come to think of it, he is indeed a lovable child.
Wait until he looks at the specific description again - (hungry, anxiously waiting to be fed).
Shen Cui: ...
Got it, I'm just hungry.
But she was so anxious that her mood level dropped below the passing line, and she had only been in the kitchen for half a quarter of an hour!
