Not long after Shen Cui upgraded the academy, she knew that new members would join, so she wanted to take good care of them and specially left some shopping points, but she didn't expect to encounter such a big gap.
She now has less than a thousand points in her account, just enough to buy two finished products that increase her luck value.
A finished product can only increase the luck value by 10 points. Things made by level 2 needlework can increase 5 points, and the cost is only seventy or eighty yuan. So it is more cost-effective to do needlework.
Chen Cui was determined to keep the person, so she didn't buy the finished product, but instead bought needlework materials and planned to slowly make it for him.
But other things must be bought, such as the desk and candles that had been bought for Mu Erpang before. At this time, Shen Cui did not care about the gains given by the system - after all, the old headmaster personally certified that Mei Ruochu's talent was no problem. As long as he could successfully enter the venue and take the exam, fame and fortune would be within his reach.
What Chen Cui values is that the products of the system are all made of high-level materials and are durable!
For example, Erpang’s set of tables and chairs has been used for almost two years, and they are still as new as ever. Not only have the chair legs broken, but there haven’t even been any splinters.
As for the special candles, not only were they not blown down by the wind, their flames didn't even sway at all when the wind blew.
Arrange the frequently used items for him first, so that he won't break everything he touches like before. Cuiwei is not like Hongle, and does not have such deep roots and background. Breaking a few bowls is not a big deal, but if tables and chairs are broken, or there is a fire or something, it cannot afford it!
Of course, considering Mei Ruochu's single-digit luck value, Shen Cui didn't dare to make a conclusion, so after adding the items to the shopping cart and before paying for them, she also confirmed it with the system.
The system explained: [Let me put it this way to the host, his luck value and fortune are low, which actually just amplifies the probability of an unfortunate event happening. For example, the bowl we used today has indeed been used for a long time and has cracks on it, but in the hands of someone with a high luck value like subject No. 1, the probability of it cracking tends to 0, while in the hands of subject No. 4, the probability tends to 100%. The probability of damage to the system's output is originally 0, so no matter who has it, no accidents will happen. 】
After getting this answer, Shen Cui felt relieved and continued: [So it’s a good idea for me to let Erpang stay with him. Mei Ruochu has low luck and is more likely to suffer an accident, while Erpang has high luck and is less likely to suffer an accident. The balance between the two sides depends on who can suppress whom. This child is so pitiful. With such low luck, it is not easy for him to grow up safely. 】
[Well, actually his luck wasn’t that low at the beginning. In the imperial examination, talent, knowledge, luck and physical strength are all indispensable. He has such a tiny amount of luck, but he repeatedly does things that require a high level of luck. Won't it be getting lower and lower? Moreover, his luck was low, in fact, it was because under the laws of this plane, his life was coming to an end, so it had been declining. 】
Shen Cuizhen rubbed her forehead with a headache and said, "You really have me confused." This luck value is difficult to increase by itself, but will decrease by itself? Anyway, it's always a good idea to speed up and brush it, right? Even if we average the two of them now, their luck scores would still be below par. I don’t know if Erpang will be influenced by him after staying with him for a long time. 】
[The No. 1 training target has a very high luck value. Logically, it will not be affected in the short term. However, if it keeps getting involved in bad luck over a long period of time, it will be hard to say. But doesn't the host have a better choice? I can……】
He is not a living being from this plane, so of course he will not be affected. Even if he encounters a fire, what will be burned is just his body made up of data. If the host doesn't like him using Mu Cheng's identity, then he can change to another one!
Make sure to take good care of training candidate No. 4!
Before he could finish his words, Shen Cui stopped him and said, "Don't take this opportunity to promote yourself." I'm poor enough. It's OK as long as it doesn't affect Erpang in the short term. I will just hurry up and transform him into a normal person. 】
Earlier, Chen Cui was thinking that after taking care of the new students, she would boost everyone's luck value, which was already high, so that she could start saving points and buy her fat son a [Advanced Enlightenment Pill] which cost 10,000 points.
Although the fat son's overall qualifications have improved, eating this kind of thing may not add many points, but every little bit counts, after all, he will be finished in a year and a half.
Now the plan has to be postponed. We have to fill the hole of Mei Ruochu first. Even if we can't make him a lucky European emperor, at least let him become an ordinary person and not live in fear.
Chen Cui sewed a belt this time, which can add 5 points of luck. If it is worn for more than a month, these 5 points of luck will be permanently added to the attributes.
Starting from level 1 insole sewing, the system will give her a drawing to follow, which needs to meet the [Normal Quality] requirements to be effective.
The same was true for the belt this time. The drawings were very detailed, not only requiring how many stitches were needed, but also requiring some simple embroidery patterns. Shen Cui stayed up all night and made one in one night.
During this time, she was worried about Mu Erpang and got up several times to check outside the next house.
Fortunately, nothing happened that night.
The next morning, Chen Cui, with panda eyes, went out first. After making sure that no one was around, she placed the desk and candles at the entrance of the academy.
When Lao Buyu and the others got up, Chen Cui said that she had gone to the city early in the morning to buy it for Mei Ruochu, and asked them to help carry it into the main room to replace the original set.
After they finished their work, Mu Erpang and Mei Ruochu came over.
In fact, it was not just Chen Cui who was worried. Although Lao Buyu and the others sympathized with Mei Ruochu's situation, they had just met and there was a difference in closeness between them, so they were all more or less worried about Mu Erpang.
Seeing that the two looked safe, everyone felt relieved.
Mei Ruochu couldn't remember how long it had been since she had such a full night's sleep.
In the past, when you were in the academy or on the road, all kinds of small accidents would always happen in the middle of the night, such as the wind blowing open the window, or mice suddenly appearing, or even the bed collapsing.
In short, it is impossible not to wake up two or three times a night.
Last night he was talking about the Book of Changes with Mu Erpang. At first he wanted to make Mu Erpang sleepy, so he secretly went out and slept on the floor.
I didn't expect that Mu Erpang could really stay up late. Instead, he said he was sleepy, but Mu Erpang was still energetic. I let him sleep first.
After a tiring journey of sleeping in the open air for weeks, Mei Ruochu fell into a deep sleep the moment he lay down. The next time he opened his eyes, it was Mu Erpang calling him to get up in the morning.
Chen Cui looked listless and could hardly open her eyes. Others would inevitably guess that she had been worried about Mei Ruochu the whole night.
Especially Mei Ruochu, he was particularly concerned about this, and when he noticed that Chen Cui's face was not right, he thought a lot and was about to leave immediately.
However, before he could say anything, Mu Erpang pulled his mother aside and spoke to her.
"Mom, actually..." He hesitated for once, twisting his fleshy fingers, feeling a little embarrassed to speak.
Facing her fat son, Shen Cui didn't want to beat around the bush and said straight to the point: "Hurry up, I have to go to sleep soon."
After sleeping for an hour, I have to rush back to do the daily work of the academy and activate the time gain.
"In fact, let's let Brother Mei stay. It's not good to let him go back to his hometown. And he explained the Book of Changes to me yesterday, and it was very good. Although when I got up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, I found that the window was blown open for some reason, so I closed it. After going to the toilet, I came back and saw a wild cat scratching the door, so I chased it away...but these are all small things."
"I wasn't planning on letting him go, and that's not why I looked so bad." Shen Cui took out the belt and said, "I made this for him... I read in a book that if the elders do some needlework for the younger generation with blessings, it will bring good luck to him, so I worked on it all night."
She now reads a lot of miscellaneous books, and her ability to make up stories is gradually improving.
Mei Ruochu wanted to say goodbye to Chen Cui, so he followed her out. Although he didn't go forward to listen to their conversation, the yard was not that big, so he heard some of what they said.
It turned out that it wasn't that he was no longer unlucky, but that Mu Erpang discovered it early and solved all those small problems.
He felt sad in his heart, and when he heard Shen Cui say that she would make a belt for him overnight, his eyes became hot.
After the mother and son finished talking, they turned around and saw him standing at the door. Shen Cui handed him the belt and said, "You came at the right time. Try this belt. If there is anything that doesn't fit, I will modify it for you."
The belt made by Chen Cui was pitch black - black and white fabrics were the cheapest in the system mall. Although white looked good, it was unlucky to wear a white belt in ancient times, so Chen Cui chose black.
The stitching on it is also crooked, just like the insole on the front, Centipede brand. The embroidered flowers were even more confusing. Fat Mu looked at them from all angles for a long time but couldn't guess what was embroidered.
If you put it in front of some particular people, they would definitely not be happy to wear such an ugly belt. But Mei Ruochu tied it around his waist without saying a word.
He was still wearing Wei Shu's clothes, a sky-blue scholar's robe with a jet-black belt. It was as ugly as it could be.
But Mei Ruochu did not despise him at all. Instead, he expressed his sincere gratitude: "Thank you for taking me in, Master. Thank you for sewing for me. Why don't I just..."
He had not given up the idea of leaving, but Shen Cui discovered that although he was young, he attached great importance to rules and etiquette. As long as she grits her teeth and doesn't give in, Mei Ruochu will not leave without saying goodbye.
So he waved his hand and said, "Do whatever you want today. I'm going to sleep for a while. We can talk after I wake up. Erpang, take him with you."
After Shen Cui finished speaking, she neither took morning exercises nor had breakfast, and went straight home to catch up on her sleep.
"Brother Mei, let's go and do some morning exercises first." Mu Erpang acted as a little guide and diligently led him to familiarize himself with the daily arrangements of the academy.
Mei Ruochu did morning exercises with them and had breakfast with them.
Because his luck value increased from single digits to double digits, and Mu Erpang was next to him, apart from choking a few times while eating, no other accidents happened.
He was really puzzled, and turned to Wei Shu to answer his questions, "Don't underestimate our academy, it's actually a Feng Shui treasure land! My brother has been weak since he was a child, and the doctors said that medicine is ineffective and can't cure him. After staying here for a year, the most difficult cough was cured without medicine..."
Because Wei Xi was already well, Wei Shu didn't hide anything. After talking about Wei Xi, he talked about Mu Yunchuan who won the "Little Three Yuan" and Mu Erpang who suddenly became smart and made rapid progress in learning...
In short, nothing is surprising here!
Mei Ruochu listened for a long time and his heart beat faster - if this "feng shui treasure land" can really suppress his bad luck, doesn't it mean that he finally has a real place to stay?
