After being reborn as a man, the woman improved her family's fortunes through education.

The King of Scrolls System?

Just as Jiang Xiaoqi was about to go to sleep after a full meal, everything went black. Had a cheat code descended upon her?

The "Scroll King System" doesn't sound like a good system at all; it sounds like something out of a nutcase!

"Would you like to choose whether or not to bind to the system?"

"reject!"

"Okay, rejection invalid, system has automatically bound!"

"Binding..."

"Binding complete. Congratulations, host, on becoming the 99th seeded player for the Otherworld Scroll King!"

"No, no, no! I chose 'no binding'!"

"Okay, host. Refusal is invalid. Binding has been successful. Would you like to activate the first stage of the Scroll King: Scroll King Development System?"

"Don't turn it on, listen carefully, don't turn it on!"

"Okay, the first stage of the Scroll King has been unlocked. Please complete the following tasks according to the prompts."

"Damn it! Can't you understand human language?! What kind of damn system is this?! You've already made the decision for me, why are you asking me?! Are you trying to create a sense of ritual?!"

"Master, isn't this basic courtesy?"

Yes, that's polite, but not much.

After hundreds of rounds of exchanges, Jiang Xiaoqi felt a sense of powerlessness in trying to outwit the robot customer service. This wasn't artificial intelligence; it was pure artificial stupidity.

He was so angry he almost laughed. He gave his lousy system an 8.5 out of 10 because it had 1.5 words.

I had originally planned to be a true lazy rich kid for the rest of my life, but my abilities wouldn't allow it, so I changed my identity and continued to be a playboy.

The ancient survival rule was nothing more than this: since you're here, accept the 'gifts' of fate.

"The First Lesson of the Scroll King: Memorizing the Hundred Family Surnames"

"Please repeat after me, host: Zhao, Qian, Sun, Li; Zhou, Wu, Zheng, Wang."

After a night of hard work, Jiang Xiaoqi reviewed the Hundred Family Surnames. Yes, she reviewed it.

No matter how he explained that he could recite it, the system still executed the instructions step by step.

Once you stop memorizing along, it goes into single-track loop mode.

His brain hadn't rested all night, but to outsiders it seemed like, 'The young master sleeps so soundly; he never wets himself or wakes up in the middle of the night.'

In the past six months, Jiang Xiaoqi has been extremely well-behaved, eating milk during the day and sleeping (reciting lessons) at night, becoming the easiest baby to take care of in the surrounding villages.

He has already memorized the Hundred, 3,000 books perfectly and has begun to explore more complex books.

Gradually, Jiang Xiaoqi began to understand the system's purpose; it seemed to want him to take the imperial examinations in this era.

This also led to him sleeping longer and longer, spending seven or eight hours a day sleeping.

Lin Yueniang even invited a doctor to visit, and fortunately the doctor said that the more a child sleeps, the better he grows and the smarter he will be when he grows up.

Just as Jiang Xiaoqi was struggling with life and death, the two concubines in the neighboring courtyard were also working hard in silence.

Aunt Pan was the old lady's cousin, a fifth degree of kinship. When she first entered the family, she enjoyed her privileged life for two years because of her kinship with the old lady, but she was not able to conceive.

After giving birth to daughters one after another, my spirits waned considerably.

Since the birth of the young master of the manor, she, like Aunt Qin, has started to have her own thoughts again, eagerly hoping to give birth to a son every day.

But how can a woman's efforts alone lead to the birth of a son?

Since having a legitimate son, Jiang Wenqing felt at ease and focused on his studies, hoping to pass the imperial examinations like his father and become a scholar or even a xiucai (a successful candidate in the lowest level of the imperial examinations).

Even when she had free time, she would go to the west courtyard to visit Aunt Qin more often.

Aunt Pan wanted to have a son but had no chance, so she could only compete with Aunt Qin every day.

"Madam, there's another commotion over there."

"Hmph, let them make a fuss. I never said I wouldn't allow illegitimate children to be born. No matter what, they can't surpass my Ming-ge'er."

When Jiang Xiaoqi was six months old, she finally got a formal name. Her grandfather named her Jiang Mingfei, with the character "Fei" meaning outstanding literary talent.

Because it's a bit of a tongue twister, Lin Yueniang still prefers to call her son Ming'er.

The mother and son ignored the chaos caused by the concubines in the household; one focused on raising the child, and the other on growing up.

Jiang Xiaoqi was eager to grow up a bit more because it was so inconvenient right now; not being able to control her bowel movements was a secondary concern.

The main problem is that I can't claim all the rewards from the system; I can only store them in the system, and the damn system charges a storage fee every day.

At first, I was reluctant to pay the storage fee, so I immediately accepted the reward of memorizing the Hundred Family Surnames, the Thousand Character Classic, and the Three Character Classic.

These are "Youth-Preserving Pill, Skin-Snowing Pill, and Marrow-Cleansing Pill".

These are all things that he, the little guy, can't use right now, but they're perfect for his mother.

The system didn't provide any personal space, so the three large pills were just conspicuously displayed inside the crib.

Fortunately, it was the middle of the night, and no one noticed anything unusual. But it took a lot of effort for Jiang Xiaoqi to gulp down several large pills, almost choking the toothless child to death.

"Hiccup~"

There was no other way; his small bed was clearly visible, so the pills had nowhere to hide but inside his stomach.

From then on, I never dared to claim the rewards immediately again. I stored them all in the dog system, spending endorsement points every day as storage fees.

"Mom, my little brother seems to have become even more handsome. His skin is so fair and tender, like a glutinous rice ball. He even has two little dimples when he smiles. He's so cute."

"Mother thinks so too. I thought it was just my imagination before. You and your sister should take a good look at your brother again and see if there are any other changes."

"Hmm... I can't quite put my finger on what's changed, but I just feel like he's different from other people's younger brothers."

The usually taciturn second sister, Xiyue, suddenly spoke such a long sentence, which greatly surprised the mother and daughter next to her.

"Yes, yes, my sister is right. We just feel that our little brother is different from other boys. Not only is he good-looking and well-behaved, but he's just... just..."

"But her overall demeanor is also extraordinary." Seeing that the young lady was really anxious, Granny Zhou quickly added.

"Yes, yes, that's exactly what I wanted to say. You understand me so well!"

The eldest and second young ladies were both raised by Granny Zhou, and seeing how much her two older sisters loved their younger brother, she was very gratified.

He stroked Xiwen and Xiyue's heads affectionately and said, "They are all Madam's children. The eldest and second young ladies are also fairy princesses, just as beautiful as our young master."

"Yes, yes, just looking at the faces of the eldest young lady, the second young lady, and the young master, I could eat three bowls of rice without eating any vegetables!"

Cui'er put down her work and hurriedly said.

"Haha, Cui'er is right. There will come a day when the threshold of our Jiang family will be worn down by the crowds."

The two girls were still somewhat confused, but Lin Yueniang understood what the wet nurse meant; her two daughters were indeed quite good-looking.

Actually, those illegitimate daughters were all quite pretty, after all, appearance was a factor in choosing concubines.

There were no ugly people in the Chiang family, so the next generation naturally looked good as well.

The eldest and second daughters both look like their father, but it's hard to say who the youngest son resembles.

However, after looking at them all, her son was still the most outstanding in appearance, which was definitely not because she favored boys over girls.

Look at that bright, radiant little face right there; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a celestial being descended to earth. Even her mother can't get enough of looking at it.

I wonder how many elegant ladies I'll charm in the future. I'm actually quite looking forward to it.
