The old family in the village.

"Grandson Feng, take all this money. I made an agreement with the dean of your academy yesterday. When the dean's carriage comes to pick you up, you can leave with him."

The old man was hunched over, smoking a cigarette bag, with a sad face.

The second child's family had separated from him and wished they could change their names.

Their old family had fallen into this state, and they didn’t know what evil they had done in their previous lives.

It's impossible for him to show off his old face and admit his mistake to Mo Sunzi and the others!

He is an elder, and he has the right to do whatever he does. It is unfilial for them to treat him as an elder like this, and they will suffer retribution sooner or later.

Grandson Feng is his most promising grandson.

Yes, he did nothing wrong.

The old man Su told Su Zifeng twitchingly.

"Listen to my grandfather, take this money to the academy and prepare well for the imperial examination. From now on, whether the old Su family can shine is all up to you! My grandfather has been looking forward to it all his life, hoping that his children and grandchildren will stand around him and stand out. You must live up to your expectations and don’t let the villagers laugh at us!”

"Grandpa..." Su Zifeng looked at the money bag on the table and his eyes widened a bit.

Why give him money?

Didn't Grandpa and the others decide yesterday to poison him? Why do you need to give him money to take the exam now?

And dad, didn’t dad listen to grandpa’s words and ask mom to pour him the poisoned tea?

Is there no poison in the tea? Did he think too much?

Late last night, the government officials came over and said that his parents fell off a cliff and their whereabouts were unknown.

At that time, Su Zifeng only felt happy, thinking that his plan was successful, and even secretly rejoiced that he had tried every means to persuade his mother to follow him.

Now that he knew that his grandfather had no intention of harming him, Su Zifeng's heart suddenly sank to the bottom.

With his conscience temporarily returned, he couldn't listen to what the old man said at all, and all he could think about was what should he do now?

His mind went blank, and he couldn't help but call the system in his mind.

[System, can I return the luck that I sucked away from my parents last night and give it back to them? I don’t want their luck anymore. Can you give it back to me? 】

System: [The luck swallowed last night has been successfully transformed, how can I return it? ]

The system kept to itself and made a sarcastic remark: "I told you before, but if you think about it again, you just didn't listen." ]

Su Zifeng pursed his lips and froze in place, unwilling to recall whether the system had said these words.

He only sucked a little bit of his little brother's luck, and he died in the blink of an eye.

Last night, his parents' luck was almost completely swallowed up by him, so wouldn't his parents also encounter mishaps?

Suddenly, a burst of rapid sobs broke the tranquility.

"Dajing, don't be afraid, mother is taking you home."

Then, a group of people poured into the courtyard.

"Su Lao, we have brought him in for you."

Su Zifeng suddenly raised his head.

Seeing the yamen and villagers carrying his parents in, he swallowed nervously.

"I'm going to invite the doctor!" Su Zifeng woke up with a start, turned his head, and trotted to ask the doctor in the village.

"There's no need to go." The officer raised his hand and patted his shoulder, and said casually: "Sorry, we will continue to investigate the matter of the vine demon, and we will definitely give you an explanation."

After leaving the people behind, the government servants and the villagers who helped go into the mountains to find the people turned around and left, for fear of being entangled in something.

Sun Cuihua squatted beside her, holding Su Dajing's shoulders tightly with both hands.

She buried her head deeply into the crook of her shoulders and said in a trembling voice: "Old man, what should I do?"

The old man dragged his sprained foot and walked over shakily.

After just one glance, he covered his face with his hands and burst into tears. Su Zifeng was in a daze and murmured to himself: "It's not my fault. I didn't mean to harm them. They forced me to drink tea!" 】

The system seemed to be dissatisfied with him and said sarcastically: "Are you so sure that the tea is poisonous?" A tiger's poison cannot eat its seeds. Fortunately, you are still a scholar. I can understand this truth like a machine. ]

【you shut up! Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. It's hard to suck away the luck of outsiders and you can't do it. Only your close relatives can do it easily. I think you want me to suck all their luck away! 】

As if feeling guilty, Su Zifeng immediately blocked the system after yelling.

He staggered to the body, knelt down and called for his parents.

With each call, his breathing became rapid and his shoulders shook with the rhythm of his crying.

The tears were like broken beads, falling from his delicate face one by one and dripping on the ground, forming dark tear stains.

He breathed in vigorously, as if trying to find comfort.

"Zifeng!"

Outside the door, a woman jumped out of the carriage.

Seeing the scene in the yard, she quickly rushed in with her skirt in hand.

"Shuqin, why are you here?" Su Zifeng raised his tearful eyes and looked directly at Bai Shuqin.

"My father said he would send someone to pick you up. When I saw you hadn't come to the academy for so long, I begged my father to let me come with you."

Bai Shuqin grabbed the handkerchief and wiped his tears, "Are you okay?"

Su Zifeng lowered his eyelids and shook his head slightly, "I'm fine."

Old Man Su stood up and pushed Su Zifeng over by the way, "Go ahead. You can't give up on your studies. You have a grandpa at home. Don't worry about your parents' funeral. Go with Miss Bai. All you have to do is give grandpa this year." I’ll come back with a good grade in the exam!”

"This..." Bai Shuqin held her handkerchief and hesitated.

She asked: "It was Zifeng's parents who were in trouble?"

The old man nodded dejectedly.

Bai Shuqin lost her countenance and said: "That Zifeng cannot take the imperial examination this year. According to our court etiquette, after the death of his parents, he must observe mourning for three years, and he is not allowed to take the imperial examination during this period."

The old man was stunned, as if he just remembered that there was such a rule.

Su Zifeng seemed to have forgotten it, and after being reminded, he became depressed.

Bai Shuqin looked at Su Zifeng, with a look of hesitation on her face except for a little worry.

Her father said that Su Zifeng and Su Beihao were his most outstanding disciples, and once they passed the exam, he would let her choose one to marry.

She was actually more enamored with Su Zifeng than Su Beihao, but now that Zifeng could not take part in the imperial examination, it meant that she had to wait another three years.

She is no longer young, and she will be an old girl if she waits a little longer.

That's all, she and Zifeng were destined to have no connection.

She'd better put some thought into Bei Hao.

Bai Shuqin calmly comforted Su Zifeng.

Finally he said: "Since you can't take the imperial examination, there is no rush to go to the academy. Zifeng might as well bury your parents properly first. My father is still waiting for news in the academy, so Shuqin will go back first."

Looking at her hurried away figure, Su Zifeng's expression instantly turned sinister.

Although Bai Shuqin didn't say it clearly, and her words of comfort to him before leaving were even somewhat considerate, Su Zifeng still immediately understood her thoughts.

Because Ding You couldn't take the imperial examination, he was dumped by her!

Even though she is the daughter of a little college dean, she is worthy! ?

Su Zifeng became furious and chased after him, but he only saw dust raised by the carriage.
