Chapter 77



When Shen Cui received this task, the corners of her mouth couldn't stop rising.

In the beginning, I was often tricked by the system, and every time I had to rack my brains to barely get a little benefit.

Of course, this was partly due to luck. If she had been stingy and refused to upgrade her college, she would now only have two people to accompany her to study.

The fat son's level is not high enough. Even with the time gain from the academy, it will take at least another two years.

Wei Xi’s words… He has many small lesions on his body, and Shen Cui is not a real doctor who can find the lesions in advance. We can only do the same as before and wait for his symptoms to manifest themselves, then prescribe the right medicine and cure him completely.

At that time, the system would definitely not allow her to take advantage of the loophole to temporarily upgrade the academy, and one of them would have to be chosen to end up. That's really a headache!

Isn’t it said that good people will be rewarded?

After the fun, Shen Cui quickly recalled the plot of the original book.

As the second male lead in the book, Wei Shu would definitely pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi in the end. However, since he was not in the same class as Mu Yunchuan, the author did not write about this part of the plot in detail.

It only wrote that he died a year late, and then he went through several scenes in a row, went to the provincial school to reunite with Mu Yunchuan, and continued to be his right-hand man.

No matter what place he got in the exam, he passed it!

The system said: [Host, don’t be happy too soon. This task also requires you to make efforts in the coming days. 】

So he sent some more requests:

[First, the host cannot remove the No. 3 trainee from the academy before he completes the county exam].

This is not difficult. Chen Cui upgraded the academy just to repay Wei Shu's favor and created an extra spot for a training candidate. The quota is vacant anyway, and it is given to him on a daily basis.

Sometimes she was needed to cook for the academy, and when Wei Shuren was not around or Chen Cui felt embarrassed to let him, an investor, eat such terrible food, she would temporarily move him out.

She couldn't move at the moment, but at worst, when she received such a task, she would rush to deliver a meal to Wei Shu. It's a bit troublesome, but it's not something that can't be accomplished.

Shen Cui continued reading.

[Second, the system detects that the host's cultivation value for object No. 3 is too low. The current progress is 60/100, so the host is required to increase the cultivation value to the maximum before the county test begins. 】

This request is not too outrageous. After all, Wei Shu is only half a Cuiwei person.

He first learned all his knowledge from his teacher at home, and in recent years he learned it at Qingzhu Academy.

It's not like Wei Xi, who needs her to use the system's output to help regulate her body.

Even the benefits of the academy were only started a few months ago.

However, the system did not give any specific instructions on how to increase the training value, so Shen Cui needed to figure it out on her own.

While she was thinking about things, Lao Buyu and the others had already noticed the abnormality in Wei Shu's expression and began to comfort him.

Lao Buyu said, "Don't worry. I've checked the papers you wrote before. There's no problem."

Mu Erpang: "Don't be afraid, Brother Wei, you are the most..."

He wanted to say the most talented one, but then he thought that his junior brother might not be inferior in terms of talent, and there was no need to step on his junior brother when encouraging others, so he paused and continued, "The most well-rounded one!"

That's absolutely no problem. Wei Shu is more talented than him and stronger than Wei Xi. Isn't he the most well-rounded one?

It was Wei Xi's turn. Although the relationship between the two brothers had improved a lot, he was a little embarrassed in front of others and only said vaguely: "Just keep a normal mind, it's no problem."

The consolation from others is actually of little help to the nervous mentality before the exam, and Wei Shu still needs to adjust himself.

Wei Shu thanked them, said he wanted to do some homework to calm down, and went to the utility room.

After entering, because he was preoccupied with something, Wei Shu didn't even notice that the environment inside had changed.

Soon, the simulated room took effect, and Wei Shu immersed himself in it again, not caring about any changes in the furnishings.

That is, not long after he entered, Shen Cui discovered that the training value had increased by 1 point to 61. Afterwards, the progress bar of the training value became very quiet and did not rise any more.

Then this is very easy to understand. The so-called training value is to use system things. Use it once and it will increase a little.

So it is no wonder that Wei Shu’s training value is too low. After all, he has not used any other system outputs except the simulation room.

Fortunately, he had something that suited his taste, otherwise his training value would probably still be in the single digits, and Shen Cui would have to start all over again.

In short, both requirements are not excessive, and compared with the tasks in the previous academy competition, they are still given for nothing!

Now that the general direction for completing the task was in place, Chen Cui performed a cooking show for everyone that day.

To upgrade your cooking level from 0 to 1, you need to cook 10 times, which is very easy to upgrade.

To upgrade from level 1 to level 2, you need to cook 100 times. And so on, the difficulty of upgrading becomes higher and higher.

In the past, she was only willing to pay for a meal at the shopping point when the system released relevant daily tasks, so even after nearly a year since the academy was built, her cooking skills still hadn't reached level 2.

The vegetable pancake in the Level 1 recommended recipe improves short-term memory. Chen Cui usually doesn't want to make it, but it is very useful for intensive review before the exam. It is even more appropriate to make it for Wei Shu at this time.

Because she had already supplied Wei Xi with a course of medicine, Shen Cui had saved nearly 1,000 shopping points from the time he came to this month.

So she didn't feel bad at all for spending 80 points to make a meal. And what if this short-term memory works wonders and allows him to get first place in the exam? Wouldn’t that be more profitable!

So when it was time for dinner in the evening, the messy vegetable pancake appeared on the table again.

Usually, Wei Shu would feel refreshed after coming out of the simulation room, but today he was still worried.

Now Lao Buyu was very conscious and took the lead in eating, but before his chopsticks touched the food, Shen Cui blocked his chopsticks and said, "You don't have to eat today. I made this for Ashu."

After all, she had received a reward of a carriage from someone's parents, and Wei Shu was about to help her get the reward for nothing, so Shen Cui unconsciously even changed her way of addressing him.

"For...for me alone?" Wei Shu, who was worried about something, was immediately flattered.

He was really shocked. In the past, he was quite grateful. Although he would occasionally see strange things on the dinner table, Shen Cui never let him eat them.

Why are you doing it for him alone today?

Mu Erpang muttered in a somewhat old-fashioned way, "What's worrying is not the lack of wealth, but the inequality..."

Chen Cui glanced at him, and he immediately continued: "'It is not the scarcity that is worrying, but the inequality; it is not poverty that is worrying, but the insecurity. Because there is no poverty when there is equality...', what is the next sentence, well, I will recite it carefully after dinner."

Shen Cui was amused by him and laughed, saying, "Current candidates enjoy the highest treatment in our academy. You will also be able to enjoy the highest treatment when you are about to take the exam!"

Mu Erpang wasn't really trying to argue with Wei Shu over a meal, he just wanted to ease the tense atmosphere, so of course he agreed after hearing this.

Not to mention Wei Xi.

Wei Shu was a little embarrassed. On the one hand, he felt embarrassed, and on the other hand, the soft and rotten vegetable pancake was really...

Chen Cui lied to him, "Didn't you also say that our academy is a Feng Shui treasure land? Don't underestimate these vegetables, they are all grown in the vegetable fields near us. I don't usually cook them, but I just can't bear to do it!"

There was indeed a small vegetable plot cultivated by Zhou behind the academy, where they usually grew green onions, cabbages and the like. But the vegetables in this vegetable pancake were naturally bought by Shen Cui from the system, and then she told Zhou that she bought them from other people in the village.

Zhou listened to Chen Cui's nonsense and nodded in agreement without changing her expression.

Having said that, Wei Shu really couldn't refuse, so he brought the plate of vegetable cakes in front of him.

He had never tasted stinky tofu or dumpling soup, so as soon as he took a bite of the vegetable pancake, his expression suddenly changed, but he still had to force himself to say, "The vegetables grown in this Feng Shui treasure land... are indeed, truly extraordinary."

Seeing him like this, Mu Erpang and Wei Xi were no longer psychologically unbalanced, and they just laughed with their hands covering their mouths.

Wei Shu finished a vegetable pancake by himself, and his training value increased by 1 point again, and he also gained the benefit of [Short-term Memory +10].

Later, when Wei Shu got up from the dinner table, he picked up a book and started reading. His memory was much better than that of ordinary people. He could remember everything he read at a glance?

It’s a great Feng Shui location, it really doesn’t deceive him!

But this taste... is really hard for him to accept.

So when he left the next day, Wei Shu thought of a solution. He took the silver and wanted to buy vegetables from Chen Cui!

In this way, he can eat the vegetables grown in the Feng Shui treasure land without having to worry about Shen Cui's torturous cooking skills? !

Isn't this another coincidence? Chen Cui was still thinking about going back to bring food to Wei Shu, but couldn't think of a good excuse.

Chen Cui smiled and said, "Since you like it, why bother buying vegetables and asking someone to make them? I'll cook and send them to you later!"

Wei Shu's expression changed several times, but in the end he didn't say anything.

When he returned to Qingzhu Academy, Chen Cui really did as she said and brought him meals from time to time.

Of course, just delivering meals is not enough. After all, the training value is still thirty or forty points short, and it will take the next ten days or so to fill it up.

Chen Cui started making embroidery again. The first time, she made two headbands, which did not require much fabric and were the simplest. She then sent them over along with the food.

As long as Wei Shu accepts it, the training value will increase.

Chen Cui also worked out some tricks. Meals can be delivered repeatedly, but daily necessities, such as the two headbands, will only be counted as 1 point.

Later, Wei Shu received a purse that looked like a pocket, a fan tassel that looked like a dogtail grass, and an insole with stitches that looked like a centipede...

As the academy's gain switch, it is not easy for Chen Cui to run outside all day. Fortunately, Mu Erpang can't bear to see her running back and forth, so he is willing to take on this job.

Wei Xi felt a little embarrassed to let the mother and son revolve around his eldest brother and run between the city and the village, so he was willing to help run errands.

Wei Shu also got used to going to the gate of the academy during lunch break every day without being informed by the waiter to see what they were going to send him that day.

"Brother Wei's family is so thoughtful. We are so envious of them."

Ever since Wei Shu helped to order a big coat, the relationship between Song Shusheng and the others and him has become much better than before.

They didn't follow Wei Shu outside to get things. They just knew that someone delivered things to him every day, so they naturally thought that it was a relative of the Wei family who took care of these.

Wei Shu, who was wearing centipede insoles, a pocket pouch around his waist, a tattered cloth headband on his head, a fan with dogtail grass hanging from it in one hand, and a food box with vegetable cakes in the other, came back and heard this, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and was hesitant to speak.

If Chen Cui saw his expression, it could probably be summed up in one sentence - do you want this blessing?

But Wei Shu turned around and found an empty corner, and ate the vegetable cake bite by bite, carefully.
