Chapter 690: The Child Bride Doesn’t Want to Follow the Plot (4)

"You, you just give me this to eat?" Zhou Cheng'an was dumbfounded when he saw the half cooked sweet potato on the plate.

Su Li snorted and laughed, "All these years, you didn't even help to fix the fallen hoe, and you're still picky? It's good enough to have something to eat. If you like it, eat it. If you don't want to eat it, forget it!"

"You! Humph, I don't want to eat it, you can take it away!" Zhou Cheng'an still has his own pride.

If it were the same as in the past, the original body would definitely try to comfort him with kindness when seeing him angry.

But Su Li was not his original self. He said he didn’t want to eat it, and without saying much, he took it away and poured it into the pig trough in the backyard.

Then, he packed up his pots and pans, turned off the lights and went into the space to practice.

He just ignored Zhou Cheng'an who was crying out in hunger.

The next day, rumors spread in the village.

It was said that Zhou family's child bride Tu Zhizhi was so cruel that she broke her fiancé's legs, thus ruining his career path.

There is also a saying that Zhou Cheng'an went to the cliff to pick flowers in order to please Liu Yixiu and injured himself.

Anyway, it's hard to tell whether it's true or false.

The final conclusion is that no matter whether he was beaten or injured by a fall, the young man from the Zhou family who had the potential to be the top scholar was probably finished with his path to the imperial examination.

This is because the imperial court has regulations that people with disabilities cannot enter the officialdom.

In their opinion, a genius from a humble family was destined to die.

At this moment, Zhou Cheng'an didn't know what people outside were saying.

After a night of torture from leg pain and hunger, he was now sleeping soundly in his bed.

After waking up, he saw half a boiled sweet potato still on the bedside. This time he didn't dare to disdain it and started to eat it directly.

Sensing that he had eaten something, Su Li had a sarcastic smile on his face.

Zhou Cheng'an was used to the original body's kindness and dedication to him, so he pursued his so-called true love without fear.

Completely disregarding the original body's thoughts.

Now, I am not my original self, so I will not treat him like a treasure like my original self.

After eating the sweet potatoes, Zhou Cheng'an seemed to have some strength. He struggled to get up, held on to the bed, walked on one foot to the closet where his clothes were kept, and found a set of clothes for himself to change.

Afterwards, he took out the bed sheet and changed his clothes and bed sheet with difficulty.

It took him half an hour to finish this matter.

Falling on the bed panting, he looked quietly at the coarse cloth curtain, thinking about Liu Yixue's every frown and smile in his heart.

Yesterday, Xue'er must have been frightened by Tu Zhizhi's ferocious look with the stick.

When my injuries have healed, I will go find her and apologize to her on behalf of Zhizhi.

Remembering his injury, he stood up and looked at his leg.

There were bruises and purple spots on her skin, but her skin was not broken. Zhizhi still didn't do anything cruel to herself.

But why does it hurt so much, as if countless ants are gnawing at me?

Zhou Cheng'an was puzzled.

He shouted outside the room, "Zhizhi, my legs hurt so much, can you find a doctor for me?"

"No, there's no money." Su Li's cold voice came from outside the door.

Zhou Cheng'an sighed softly, lay down and closed his eyes.

Maybe if I lie down for a few days, it will get better naturally?

Not long after, he fell asleep again.

The dream was filled with scenes of him and Liu Yi making vows to each other under the moonlight in front of the snowy flowers.

An unconscious smile appeared on his face.

But what he didn't know was.

At this moment, Liu Yixue, whom he was thinking about all the time, had already started to think about giving up on him after hearing that Zhou Chengan's official career was ruined.

"Ah, I didn't expect that the Zhou family's child bride would be so cruel and break the Zhou family kid's legs!"

Mother Liu sighed, "My son has wasted his time and reputation for nothing."

She looked at Liu Yixue, who also looked depressed, "Daughter, what are you going to do next?"

Liu Yixue tore the handkerchief in her hand, "Mom, I will definitely avenge Dad. Since Zhou Cheng'an has become a useless son, I will just replace him with another one."

"But, in this village, only this kid from the Zhou family has a talent for studying..."

Mother Liu hesitated, "How about we find a doctor to go to Zhou's house and take a look at the boy from the Zhou family? What if it's just a minor injury?"

Liu Yixue shook her head, "Mom, you didn't see that Tu Zhizhi looked like she wanted to beat Zhou Cheng'an and me to death yesterday. I guess Zhou Cheng'an's leg can't be cured. I heard that there are a few good students in the next village, and I can also go to the academy in town to ask about it."

"Okay, I'll listen to you! Your father's revenge must be avenged. No matter what method we use, we must find a way to get close to that dog emperor." There was hatred in Liu's mother's eyes.

"Mom, don't worry! As long as I find someone with similar qualifications to Zhou Cheng'an, I will be able to enter the palace openly and kill that old thief."

Liu Yixue gritted her teeth and said, "The dog emperor has harmed my entire Liu family. I will never let him live in this world!"

Su Li, who was hiding nearby, couldn't help but snort and laugh.

For revenge, you can sacrifice your own life, but you can't implicate innocent people, right?

Especially the original body, what did she do wrong?

"Tuanzi, help me see if there is another person like Zhou Chengan who has the potential to be the top scholar within a hundred miles around here?" Su Li communicated with Tuanzi.

[Host sister, those who can pass the exam to become the top scholar are all rare talents, and only one of them appears every few years. How can Liu Yixue find a second one? ] Tuanzi replied in a low voice.

"What about the third place in the imperial examination, or the Jinshi degree?" Su Li continued.

[No, I checked and found that the people around here are all mediocre. Some of them were able to pass the imperial examination because of luck or their families' secret manipulation.]

"Okay, I see." Su Li nodded. "In that case, let me add fuel to the fire and help Liu Yixue find her ideal husband sooner, right?"

Since I can't pass the exam, I won't implicate those people and their families.

In the end, the only ones who were disappointed were Liu Yixue and her daughter, and of course, Zhou Chengan.

Three days later, Liu Yixue returned to the Liu family happily.

Seeing her happy face, her mother asked, "How is it, did you find out?"

"Well, there is a reclusive literary giant in town. He recently accepted a new scholar named Chang Xiaoyao. I heard that his talent is outstanding, even higher than Zhou Cheng'an's!"

Liu Yixue said with a happy face, and then a little tangled, "However, he has a lot of concubines and maids at home, and they are not as clean as Zhou Chengan's."

"Hey, it's common for a man to have three wives and four concubines. You have to remember that our goal is revenge, and love affairs are secondary." Liu's mother warned.

"Okay, Mom, I'll listen to you." Liu Yixue nodded.

Afterwards, she began to travel frequently between the village and the town.

As for the so-called outstanding talent and being accepted as a disciple by a literary giant, it was all Su Li's work.

Su Li just appeared in the dream of the boss, saying that if he did not accept the scholar Chang Xiaoyao, his old age would be uncertain. The boss woke up and hurried to find that person.

He was hurriedly accepted as a disciple.

He doesn't care even if the other party is not particularly talented.

After all, he was just a disciple who protected him from disaster.
