Chapter 153 Several places
When they arrived at the academy, before Chu Ci got off the carriage, he saw that all the scholars were standing at the entrance of the academy. They were all crowded together, making a lot of noise, as if he had entered a forest full of birds, and the chirping was so noisy that it gave him a headache.
Chu Ci felt a pain in her head. The Duke's Mansion had collapsed. It seemed that it was time to find a way to get rid of the Chu family. However, she couldn't ignore her brother's future.
Is there any way to bring down the Chu family without affecting my brother's future?
The little maidservant was in front, urging Chu Ci to go, and everyone realized that Chu Ci had arrived.
They all made way, and Chu Ci and Qiu Yue walked in and stood straight in front of Li. "Mother, what are you doing here?"
Li stood up from the ground and gently brushed off the dust on her body. She was now on the verge of death. As long as she could achieve her goal, she would not care about her face at all.
Originally, she didn't want to care about these things, but later, Chu Sheng knelt in front of her. Thinking that he only had this one child left, she softened her heart. After all, he was still her child.
There are only children with many faults in this world, so how can there be parents who don’t love their children?
This was the last thing she could do for him.
When Li said this, she stood straight and looked at Chu Ci, who didn't know if she thought she was the one who was right. "Xiao Ci, I came here today to talk about your quota."
"I won't say any more nonsense. Let Chu Zhen give up that spot to Chu Sheng. This will be good for both of us."
Chu Ci looked at Li speechlessly, without even a trace of expression. She felt that any expression would be disrespectful to her.
"I wonder who mother is referring to when she says we are all fine?" Chu Ci's words also raised everyone's doubts.
These are all born to Li, and the difference is really huge.
Li raised her head proudly, "Chu Ci, of course I'm talking about your father, me, and your brother."
"As long as you accomplish this, I won't blame you for Chu Xiao's problem."
Chu Ci suddenly laughed. "Mother, what you said is true. I really don't understand. What does Chu Xiao's death have to do with me? Wasn't it her fault? Now you want to put the blame on me and threaten me with it. Isn't that inappropriate?"
Li didn't care about that. "Chu Ci, I don't care. I will blame you for Chu Xiao's death. Even if it seems like you have nothing to do with it, you are definitely inextricably linked to it."
"Don't say so much, just tell me whether you will give me this spot or not."
Li looked very annoyed and went straight to the point, targeting that spot.
The people watching the excitement around were all sons of various aristocratic families. They would all take over the family in the future. No matter how bad they were, they would still be the head of the family.
The remaining girls will marry into the royal family and various aristocratic families in the future and become the wives of the mistresses.
They began to discuss in low voices, "Is this Mr. Chu's mother? Or a concubine of the Chu family? Judging from her demeanor, she doesn't look like a marquis' wife at all. She's clearly a street shrew."
As soon as the voice fell, the young master next to him started talking again, "This is too biased. They were all born by the same mother, so why does she have to give this spot to the youngest son? This spot belongs to our Mr. Chu, so she can give it to whoever she wants."
"It seems that the Chu family's family tradition is really not very good. I must go home and tell my mother and father that our daughter should not marry into the Chu family. It is simply shameless."
Others also began to echo.
Li never dreamed that she would risk her own reputation, not only did she not get the quota, but she also ruined Chu Sheng's marriage.
Listening to their criticisms, it is now impossible to change the strategy.
Chu Ci stood aside and watched the fun. She didn't care at all about Li's making a fuss. The more she made a fuss, the easier it would be to sever ties with the Chu family.
But I was afraid of hurting Chu Zhen's face.
Chu Ci looked around and saw Chu Zhen walking here with the dean. His face looked extremely ugly. Compared to her who was watching the fun on the side, he looked like he had just recovered from a serious illness, his face was pale.
"No! I got this with my own ability, so I'll give it to you if I want."
Li was so angry at Chu Ci that she pointed at Chu Ci's hand which was shaking constantly and she couldn't speak for a long time.
"Evil daughter, since you don't agree, I will tell you all your shameless things. Don't blame me for not considering the relationship between mother and daughter."
Chu Ci stood there without saying a word, just looking at Li, wanting to know what she could say.
"Chu Ci, do you dare to say how many places you have to enter this academy?" Li pressed aggressively.
Chu Ci knew what she meant the moment she said this.
"I have two, so what?" Chu Ci stared at Li with cold eyes, she just wanted to see how vicious this woman was.
At this time, Chu Zhen and Qiao Sheng, who had just arrived, looked at Chu Ci with pity, but even if their fiery hearts were combined, they could not warm the coldness in Chu Ci's heart at this moment.
This is her mother!
At this point, the people around them began to discuss quietly, "Doesn't everyone only get one spot? Why does she have two?"
"That's right, this is unprecedented. Isn't it a bad idea for the dean to do this?"
"If there are two spots, giving one to my brother is not unacceptable."
"If you didn't give it to your brother, who did you give it to? What's their relationship?"
As soon as she said the last sentence, she covered her mouth. Mr. Chu was betrothed to Prince Rui. If what she said just now reached Prince Rui's ears, she would probably be chopped into pieces and fed to the dogs.
When Mrs. Li heard her admit it, her eyes were filled with disdain. "Evil girl, you have two spots, why don't you give one to your brother? Do you dare to tell me who you gave it to?"
When Qiao Sheng heard what Li said, he didn't want Chu Ci to suffer any injustice, so he was about to stand up and take all the responsibility. It didn't matter to him anyway, as long as Chu Ci was not criticized.
Chu Ci stopped him in his tracks with just a look, and shook his head slightly at him, indicating that he could handle it.
Chu Ci glanced at Li. How could she have the nerve to ask her, "Give Chu Sheng a place? Then mother, can you explain to me why? Why should I give him the place? Because he has tried to kill me so many times? Or because he wants me to marry that loser from the Rongguo Mansion? Or because he keeps framing me all the time?"
"Mother, have you forgotten what happened a few days ago? If you've forgotten, why are you still standing here talking to me? Or have you forgotten that I, your good brother, just framed my brother and me? If we hadn't reacted quickly, we wouldn't be standing here now."
