Chapter 1097: Chapter 1093: Who Is This Year’s Champion Scholar...?

After listening to Mu Shuangshuang, Liu Chengzhi ate an entire sugar-coated haw, but he still didn’t like the taste.

He finally said bluntly, ”You’re lying, this taste is terrible! No way, you owe me a few Garfield drawings to make it up to me.”

Mu Shuangshuang was a bit helpless, ”You’re quite bold, just one drawing takes me a lot of time, and you want several more!”

”I’m rich, I’ll pay you for them, just consider... consider it as buying your artwork!” Liu Chengzhi said.

”Forget it, I don’t want to make money off a kid’s allowance.”

Mu Shuangshuang believed Liu Chengzhi was wealthy and that he would be willing to pay her to draw Garfield.

But the problem was, they had already agreed on terms before.

A guest list in exchange for some short stories.

She had received the guest list, and going back on her word wasn’t her style.

”So what will make you willing to draw me a few more?” Liu Chengzhi appeared a bit eager.

”When I have time, I’ve been busy lately! Oh, Liu Chengzhi, I remember you’re still studying at school, has your teacher mentioned who this year’s top scorer is?”

Qingshan Town is far from the Capital; it’s quite difficult for ordinary people to know the news from there.

But the Liu family’s teacher was surely not an ordinary person.

So, there was a possibility they knew who this year’s top scorer was.

”Champion Scholar... let me think.” Liu Chengzhi tilted his head, sincerely pondering.

After a long while, just when Mu Shuangshuang thought he couldn’t recall, he said, ”It seems the name is Mu...”

As soon as the name ”Mu” was uttered, Mu Shuangshuang’s mind exploded.

Mu... Dade?

No way?

Is the Champion Scholar that bastard Mu Dade?

This... how could this be possible?

Her mind was in chaos, cold sweat starting to pour out, Lu Yuanfeng noticed Mu Shuangshuang’s abnormality.

”Shuangshuang... what’s wrong?” Lu Yuanfeng panicked, reaching out to hold Mu Shuangshuang.

He rolled up his sleeve to wipe Mu Shuangshuang’s sweat and fanned her with his hand.

”Shuangshuang, don’t be afraid, it won’t be him, it won’t...”

Liu Chengzhi had only said one word, and Mu Shuangshuang was already this scared. At this moment, Lu Yuanfeng suddenly realized he had always thought of Shuangshuang as too strong.

She also had things she feared.

Her elder uncle, now a scholar, might have an even higher status in the future.

Given the past animosities between Shuangshuang’s family and Mu Dade, if he returned, he wouldn’t let Shuangshuang’s family off...

A decision took root and sprouted in Lu Yuanfeng’s heart at this moment.

He felt it was time for him to fight for Shuangshuang and his own future!

”I remember now, it’s Mu Haoran, Mu as in wood, son of Prime Minister Mu Jue in the Capital, my teacher said they had some connections, but they lost touch after he resigned!”

After speaking, Liu Chengzhi looked up and noticed the unusual expressions of Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng.

He asked, ”What’s wrong with you two? Is it hot? Have you got heatstroke?”

”No, nothing’s wrong! Who did you say the Champion Scholar was again?” Mu Shuangshuang gathered her composure and asked once more.

”Mu Haoran,” Liu Chengzhi answered.

At this, the burden on Mu Shuangshuang’s heart was finally lifted.

She thought, someone like Mu Dade, how could he become a Champion Scholar? He must have been lucky just to become a scholar.

There’s no way heaven would always favor someone like him.

”That’s good... that’s good!” Mu Shuangshuang muttered to herself, her face suddenly showing relief.

”Do you know who the second and third highest scorers are?” Mu Shuangshuang asked again.

”I don’t remember, the teacher only casually mentioned it at the time, and I only remembered the Champion Scholar,” Liu Chengzhi said.

Actually, the news she received was already enough for Mu Shuangshuang!

As long as Mu Dade wasn’t the Champion Scholar, it didn’t matter.

”It’s about time, Liu Chengzhi, we need to head back to the village, I’ll send someone with your drawings in a couple of days.”

They had toured the City God Temple, watched the temple fair, and made their wishes, Mu Shuangshuang felt the trip was worthwhile.

”Alright!” Liu Chengzhi was a little unhappy, but he still showed great tolerance.

He even said, ”If you can’t handle your cousin, just have her parents discipline her, save yourself the trouble!”

”Mm!”

After a few more pleasantries, Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng returned to the tavern.

They stayed at the tavern for another half hour, then Xing Beichen and Fu Xiaonan also returned.

The four of them reeled in the horse carriage and headed back to the village.

Old Mu Family

Mu Xiangxiang ran away from the Sun Family again, and once more, it was over a trivial matter.

In the main room, Mu Xiangxiang was sobbing and complaining to Old Mrs. Mu.

”Mom, that Sun Dali’s mom is no good. First thing in the morning, she comes and tells me to go work in the fields. I’ve never done any work.

I said no, and she wouldn’t even feed me!”

Mu Xiangxiang married into the Sun Family because she liked that Sun Dali’s mom would always make her tasty food.

But now, just a few days after marrying, the good food was gone, and she had to endure endless chores every day.

Old Mrs. Mu was full of distress, hugging Mu Xiangxiang, ”That damned ugly woman dared to make our Xiangxiang do such labor, does she have a death wish?”

Mr. Mu, who was listening nearby, was immediately displeased by Old Mrs. Mu’s words.

”Isn’t a daughter-in-law supposed to serve her in-laws? It’s just fetching some greens from the vegetable patch; how is that work for brutes?

Besides, that woman is Xiangxiang’s mother-in-law, how can you call her Sun Dali’s mom like that?” Mr. Mu scolded.

”Old man, whose side are you on, anyway? This is our daughter, she’s been wronged out there, come back, and we don’t even help her; how can you speak like that?” Old Mrs. Mu retorted.

”Calling her out? I’m reasoning things out. Can’t she even listen to reason? Have you ever seen a daughter-in-law come back to ask for a divorce the day after the wedding?

She causes trouble, and you join her? Don’t you know what a daughter-in-law’s duties are?”

For years, Mr. Mu watched Old Mrs. Mu manage the daughters-in-law.

Each daughter-in-law had various chores to do, none were like Mu Xiangxiang, neither doing this nor that.

Running home for every little thing to complain, coming back every little bit to ask for a divorce.

These minor issues, just this month, it’s been the tenth time. If this keeps up, what difference does it make from not marrying off a daughter?

”Dad, are you really my dad? Why do Dali’s parents protect him, but you keep scolding me?” Mu Xiangxiang yelled.

”Nonsense! If you weren’t my daughter, I’d have beaten you to death by now, and your mom too!”

Mu Xiangxiang’s words were indeed infuriating.

She was clearly implying she wanted to give Mr. Mu a green hat.

”You... I don’t want to live, Mom, I don’t want to live...”

Being yelled at like this, Mu Xiangxiang broke into sobs, crying out as she wailed.

Mr. Mu was even angrier.

”If you want to die, die at the Sun Family’s place, don’t disgrace us at the Old Mu Family!”
