Of course, this also meant that Shen Cui’s mention of frequently cooking in the future was also part of this “trick”.

Lao Buyu looked at her again, and there was a few more points of admiration in his eyes without realizing it.

Shen Cui felt a little embarrassed and touched her face, not explaining that he had overthought it, and just said, “Anyway, what I said about cooking frequently in the future is true, and my statement about improving myself is also true. Master, rest assured.”

What could Lao Buyu do? He had been deceived step by step onto this “thief ship” by Shen Cui, and he could only accept it!

Soon, the whole family finished their meal, and Lao Buyu took the two children inside to study.

Shen Cui and Mrs. Zhou then cleaned up the table.

Mrs. Zhou stopped her from doing it, saying that she could handle it herself.

Shen Cui was not lazy now, so she couldn’t rely on Mrs. Zhou for everything. She rolled up her sleeves and said, “It’s okay, let’s work together to finish quickly. Besides, don’t you still have chores to do today? Finish cleaning up early, so you can start washing early.”

Mrs. Zhou couldn’t win the argument, so she sped up her pace.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were busy for about twenty minutes, and they had washed all the dishes and the small mess in the kitchen where Shuan Zi had vomited.

After dinner, Mrs. Zhou was still busy with washing and rinsing, while Shen Cui’s enthusiasm for the Academy interface had not faded, so she continued to study it in her room.

She had only glanced at it roughly before and roughly knew what was on the interface.

At this moment, upon closer inspection, Shen Cui discovered that the interface could be enlarged or reduced according to her thoughts.

Just like Mu Er Pang, who was practicing calligraphy, after Shen Cui enlarged it, she could see the characters he was writing from the Thousand Character Classic.

It was just as the system said. With this interface, as a parent, she could supervise the children’s learning situation comprehensively.

Of course, Shen Cui didn’t want to treat Lao Buyu and the two children as criminals, so she didn’t enlarge the screen to the maximum. She just kept it as before, only needing to see roughly what their Q-version characters were doing.

After zooming in and out, Shen Cui saw a “+” sign in the lower right corner of the interface.

Clicking on the symbol revealed all the personal information of the Academy personnel.

[Academy Head: Shen Cui ]

Master: Lao Buyu (Master, can be replaced at any time)

Students: Mu Hanshan (No. 1 cultivation target), Wei Xi (No. 2 cultivation target, can be replaced at any time)

Odd Jobs: Vacant (can be replaced at any time)】

Just as she heard Mrs. Zhou busy outside, Shen Cui had a thought, and then added Mrs. Zhou’s name to the Odd Jobs column.

When Mrs. Zhou finished washing a tub of clothes and took them to the yard of the old house to dry, her Q-version character appeared on the Academy map, carrying a tub of clothes and starting to work.

Similarly, Mrs. Zhou’s mood value and physical fitness were also displayed in two bars.

This was also a kind of indirect use of the system. After all, since Shen Cui could get information from Mu Yunchuan’s mood value, and Mrs. Zhou was not as good at concealing her emotions as Mu Yunchuan, understanding her mood value would naturally allow Shen Cui to feel more at ease having her around.

Of course, out of humanitarian spirit, if the system asks her to cook for the Academy again next time, she will remove Mrs. Zhou. Since she can be replaced at any time, she can always add her back later.

…

The next day, the Academy refreshed the enhancement effect of “Refreshed Mind and Brain”.

This enhancement seemed to be more advanced than the previous one, at least Shen Cui had never seen it before.

Knowing that there was an enhancement effect in the Academy, Shen Cui had Mrs. Zhou prepare the meal and then took it to the old house to eat together.

During breakfast, Mu Er Pang ate faster than usual, saying that he felt particularly energetic when he woke up today and wanted to start studying early.

He felt a little embarrassed because Lao Buyu lectured at a very fast pace and finished three books in three days.

During morning reading, he was asked to recall everything from beginning to end while reading, and to ask if there was anything he didn’t understand.

Mu Er Pang felt that he had already tried very hard, but still found it a bit difficult. He often remembered things well at night, but forgot them a bit in the morning.

Today was also strange. When he recalled the book Lao Buyu had lectured on last night, it was as if it was engraved in his mind!

Lao Buyu and Wei Xi also unconsciously sped up their eating speed.

After being told this, Mrs. Zhou also felt that today was a bit different.

She had been increasingly uneasy due to being caught in a dilemma, and hadn’t slept well for two days, feeling drowsy every morning.

Today was the same. She felt a headache while cooking breakfast.

But strangely, after entering the Academy for a while, her head suddenly cleared.

“I think it’s because ‘happiness makes one energetic.’ With a good mood, one naturally feels more energetic.”

Shen Cui didn’t participate much in this topic, just sipped her bowl of porridge slowly.

She was afraid that today’s daily task in the Academy would be to cook again. Although it would allow Lao Buyu and the two children to eat more, the system was cunning. Yesterday, she sold two sets of dumpling ingredients, but only gained 2 points in attributes.

It seemed that the increase in attributes was related to the amount of materials purchased.

Next time she cooked, considering the cost and benefits, she would buy only one set of dumpling ingredients at most. When the attributes increased, the others could eat a little less, and she, as the head, would be responsible for the shortfall.

Perhaps because she had been thinking about the task, she didn’t finish her breakfast. The system actually announced the daily task for the Academy today–

【Please the Academy students by sewing school uniforms.】

【Task Deadline: 1 day.】

Shen Cui put down her bowl with a “clatter” and turned to look at Mu Er Pang and Wei Xi.

Wei Xi was okay, but for some reason, Mu Er Pang suddenly shivered when he met his own mother’s gaze.

Shen Cui was indeed mainly looking at him–Wei Xi was thin and looked about thirteen or fourteen years old, but her big fat son… How much fabric would that take?!
