Hear the words.

Xie Boyuan didn't answer immediately, thinking to himself: The system forces him to study for three or four hours every day anyway, so taking on an urgent copy of a book is just an excuse to memorize less.

Thinking of this, a smile appeared on his face: "Boss, I'll take it."

The shopkeeper's smile deepened.

At the same time, Xie Linghe's smile was extremely bright.

Want to be lazy?

My child, you are still a little naive.

……

Take this mission.

Xie Boyuan left the bookstore, played with his money bag, and said with a smile: "I have earned so much money with my own ability, I have to go to the restaurant for a meal to reward myself."

Yes.

In a hurry to return the book.

He left the school without even having lunch today.

aside.

Xie Linghe complained upon hearing this:

Rewarding yourself with a nice meal at a restaurant, you're being kind to yourself, aren't you?!

She couldn't bear to see him being so arrogant, so she said, "A kind reminder to the host to save enough money for the college entrance examination before the end of May.

As the head of the family, I need to be independent and not ask for money from my family."

what? !

Have you saved enough money for the college entrance examination?

The academy examination is held in the provincial capital, and you can go there by carriage or boat. The carriage fee is two hundred coins; food and drink on the way cost one hundred coins; and you need accommodation in the provincial capital. During the imperial examination period, restaurants charge high fees, and the cheapest lower-class room costs at least one hundred coins a night. If you arrive a few days in advance and wait for the exam to end and the results to be announced, it will take at least ten days, which means one or two taels of silver.

The most expensive thing is the insurance premium for the students in the academy, which requires at least three taels of silver.

This doesn't include the return trip.

You need to prepare at least five taels of silver.

After settling the accounts, Xie Boyuan felt as if he had been struck by lightning, as if the sky was falling: "How is this possible?!"

How can't it be done?

You are a man with a system!

Xie Linghe: "If the host copies one book every day, it will only take 25 days to save up five taels of silver."

"Copy a book every day?"

Xie Boyuan couldn't help but shout in the street: "Do you treat me like an animal?!!!"

After he finished speaking, he noticed that the passers-by on the street were looking at him. His handsome face immediately turned red and he turned and walked into the alley.

not far away.

In front of a stall selling candy figures.

Two slender women were choosing, obviously a master and a servant.

The girl who served the master was wearing a green dress and had a beautiful appearance that made people forget the world.

The maid was wearing a rose-red cotton skirt and had an oval face. She smiled before she spoke, and her two dimples made her look particularly festive.

heard movement.

Both of them turned their heads.

Seeing the person clearly, the pretty woman showed surprise, and the oval-faced maid beside her exclaimed: "Miss, it's my son-in-law!"

This woman was Xie Boyuan’s fiancée Liu Rushuang.

Hearing the maid's words, her face turned slightly red and she said angrily: "Xiaohong, what son-in-law? Don't talk nonsense!"

Hear the words.

Xiao Hong was not afraid, and smiled and said: "I was wrong, Miss. Mr. Xie is in front. We just happened to meet, let's go and say hello."

talking.

She pulled Liu Rushuang and walked in the direction where Xie Boyuan left.

Liu Rushuang bit her lower lip and refused: "Forget it~" But her body obeyed without any strength to resist.

……

Xie Boyuan's side.

As soon as he entered the alley, he took a deep breath and tried to negotiate with the system in a calm tone: "System, can you please be reasonable? I'm exhausted just dealing with your tasks every day, and you still want me to copy a book every day. I'm going to die suddenly before I earn enough money, okay?"

"How about this, I'll use the money from home to finish the exam first, and then I'll find a way to pay it back after I'm done."

Xie Linghe: "This system has a scientific diagnosis. The host will not die suddenly, please rest assured."

Can’t save money by writing a book, but have enough money to eat a big meal in a restaurant?

Moreover.

You are a man with a system.

Xie Boyuan was furious.

His eyes widened, his face filled with anger, and he gasped: "You devil..."

Xie Linghe: "The host cannot insult the system, otherwise there will be punishment."

Xie Boyuan shut up immediately.

He's not a coward.

I just don't want to reason with something as unreasonable as the system.

"I'll save it. One month won't work. I already have two months, don't I?!"

"I'm furious."

Xie Boyuan muttered to himself angrily, "I need to go have a good meal. I'm going to spend all these two hundred coins and start earning money tomorrow."

Hear the words.

Xie Linghe: You are awesome!

The next moment, he said, "Host, now that you have earned your first pot of gold, please fulfill your duties as the head of the family, love your sisters, and buy gifts worth no less than fifty coins for each of them."

Xie Boyuan was stunned, then angrily said, "Fifty coins?! Why don't you just go and rob me? I've been copying books until my hands are almost broken, and I only earned two hundred coins. I won't accept this!"

Don't accept it?

Xie Linghe was also angry: If he won’t accept it even if I pay him fifty cents now, how can I expect you to do that in the future?

Xie Ling'ai didn't mention it for now. She felt bad for the original body, even though it cost him so much effort and effort, yet he couldn't even spare fifty cents.

This scumbag is really selfish.

I had originally left him a hundred coins for food, but now it seems I can't be soft-hearted and have to give him a severe lesson.

Xie Linghe didn't waste time talking to him and sneered, "Xiao Xi, the old rules, shock him."

System: "Yes, host."

She didn't know if it was Xie Linghe's illusion, but she always felt that the system was a little excited.

In the alley.

Xie Boyuan didn't wait for the system's reply after he finished speaking. He was initially puzzled, but suddenly his heart skipped a beat, and he had an uneasy premonition: "This calm before the storm, could it be..."

"No!"

“My fault…Aaaaaah!”

Just as he was about to admit his mistake, a sharp pain made him scream out.

next moment.

A terrified female voice rang out: "Ah!"

Xie Linghe looked over and saw two young girls. The one in the green dress caught her eye: What a beautiful girl!

next moment.

She took a closer look and said, "Hey, isn't this Xie Boyuan's fiancée, Liu Rushuang?"

then.

Liu Rushuang anxiously approached, wanting to touch Xie Boyuan but not daring to, and stamped her feet anxiously: "Are you okay?"

Xie Boyuan then glanced at her and said through gritted teeth, "Thank you for your concern, Miss. I'm fine."

Liu Rushuang stood there in a daze, her face turning pale.

Xie Boyuan didn't notice at all, and strode away past the woman as if there was a jackal following him.

Turned a corner.

He leaned against the wall in a panic, gasping for breath: "It hurts so much~"

"System, next time you punish me, can we choose a place where there's no one?"

Xie Linghe was in a bad mood and wanted to hit him again.

She said, "Don't you know the woman just now?"

Xie Boyuan was confused: "What?"

"Is that woman from before someone I know? Let me think..."

He tried to recall.

After a long moment, he met a somewhat unfamiliar face in his memory. He asked uncertainly, "Could that girl just now be Liu Rushuang?"

Xie Linghe spoke each word with emphasis: "It's your fiancée."

In the book, Liu Rushuang fell in love with Xie Boyuan at first sight and was deeply in love with him. Now she finally met her fiancé by chance, but he didn't recognize her. The girl's heart must be broken.

Hear the words.

Thinking about what he had just done, Xie Boyuan was at a loss for words: "This..."
