After dressing as a superb old woman, I am bound to the power system

Everyone hopes that their children and grandchildren can study hard, gain fame and glory as soon as possible.

But even in peaceful times, studying is not an easy task.

After Qiao Lan put these words aside, the children and grandchildren of the Duan family pondered for a moment.

Duan Mingjing scanned the people around him and felt that he was incompetent. Anyway, his mother was here and she would take care of everything for him, so he was not afraid. No matter how hard it was, it was just chopping wood. Now he chops wood every day, what else?

Can it stump him?

I don’t know if it was Qiao Lan’s words that had an effect, or it was the children and grandchildren of the Duan family who inspired them.

When Qiao Lan was sleeping hazily at night, she suddenly heard the system's settlement sound.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully completing the mission again! The mission reward red flag has been placed in the warehouse, and all the points have been credited. Because the host has accumulated enough points for the missions, 1818 can be upgraded!

The 1818 upgrade takes 5 days. During the upgrade, all functions of the system cannot be used. The host cannot call the system and cannot open the panel.】

Qiao Lan was sleeping soundly, and her head was buzzing, as if someone was talking to her.

Who is it, the system?

He responded vaguely, "I know, I know."

[Then 1818 is going to upgrade! Goodbye host, 1818 will miss you~]

After this electronic sound, Qiao Lan's brain returned to calm, and she still slept peacefully. However, when she woke up the next morning and wanted to open the system panel to look at the map out of habit, she found that it could not be opened.

Only then did Qiao Lan remember that someone seemed to have told her something at night, that it was the 1818 upgrade.

Without the daily map survey session, and without the noisy electronic sounds in her ears, Qiao Lan was somewhat unaccustomed to it, and even ate less.

Several daughters-in-law of the Duan family experienced the short story session last night, and each one of them was still worried about what to do in the future.

Although Ms. Wang was worried, she already had her own ideas.

Wang's natal family was not prominent, and her father was just a minor official in the capital, not as good as Duan Yuexiu. After Wang's marriage, her family moved to another place.

Over the years, Ms. Wang has exchanged many letters with her family. It seems that her family now knows about the changes in the capital, and they are worried. After arriving in Tongzhou, she will send another letter to her family to report that she is safe.

After her husband passed away, she was afraid of encountering another accident, so she prepared some belongings at her parents' house. If she really couldn't support her two children, she could only shamelessly ask her family for some money. After all, unlike her sisters-in-law, she had no money at home.

Men, it is even more impossible for her to remarry.

Writing a letter asking for money was Wang's worst plan. Before that, she wanted to do something with her own hands. She knew how to embroider.

When Wang was still in her boudoir, her father had not been admitted to the imperial examination, so he relied on her mother to support the family through embroidery. She learned some from her mother. It was not very good, but it was always good to earn some copper coins.

After marrying into the Duan family, the Duan family was wealthy and did not need her to rely on embroidery to support the family. Her mother-in-law even handed over all the money in her hands. Her father also became an official, and the family's life became better and better.

Putting aside the experience of losing her husband, Wang felt that she had been blessed with great luck. She made plans in her heart to raise a pair of children through embroidery and support her mother-in-law.

As for the following younger brothers and sister-in-law, whom Ms. Wang didn't know much about, she would always help them out if she had the ability.

Ms. Wang had thought everything through, and her mother-in-law had become a lot more reasonable in recent days. She was about to tell her her plans, but she didn't expect that her mother-in-law, who was the backbone of the family, would be so worried that she couldn't eat.

"Mom, is my steamed bun not steamed today?" Wang asked with concern. She found that Qiao Lan only ate half of the steamed bun.

As soon as Wang finished speaking, the eyes of the Duan family were all focused on Qiao Lan. Duan Yutao was in trouble, so the old lady must not get sick.

Qiao Lan was suddenly surrounded by the concerned eyes of a group of people. She didn't dare to swallow the half-chewed steamed bun in her mouth.

Qiao Lan just thought that she had been in a system for so many days since time travel, but suddenly it disappeared one day. She was not used to it, so she ate half a bun less.

She couldn't talk about the system upgrade because she felt uncomfortable and had a bad appetite and was afraid that her children and grandchildren would be worried.

Qiao Lan thought for a moment, lowered her head and said deeply, "I dreamed about the old man last night. He said he knew down there that the capital was in chaos, and wondered how our family was doing?"

"I asked the old man how he was doing, but he didn't listen to a word and left after he finished speaking."

——It turns out that it was a dream entrusted to me by my father!

Duan Yuexiu was buried in the capital, which was one of his funeral arrangements before he left. Although his soul did not return to his hometown, a memorial tablet was set up in his hometown ancestral hall.

"Mom, I haven't burned paper for dad in a while. When I get back to my hometown, I will burn some paper for dad's memorial tablet." Duan Mingjing suddenly felt that the steamed bun in his hand had no flavor anymore.

When thinking of his biological father, Duan Mingjing can't help but think of how his life has become bleaker day by day! Why is this? Is it because his father died early?

If his father were still alive, he would not have lived such a miserable life, let alone let those people pour dirty water on his father's head.

But his father has already passed away. He is useless and can only watch these people tarnish his father's reputation.

"Mom, my son will study hard, take the Duan family back to the capital, and then pay homage to his father." Duan Mingchen said suddenly.

He thought about it for a long time last night. The second brother was not good at studying, and the grandchildren at home were still young. As for the third brother, Duan Mingchen felt that his mother always had a knot in her heart. If the third brother passed the exam, he would not

Yes, my mother will feel a little sad.

In this way, he was his mother's only support. Although her mother didn't say anything to him, she must have been hoping that he would become a talented person.

Qiao Lan did not expect such a reaction from the Duan family.

Qiao Lan comforted her casually and continued, picking up the other half of the steamed buns, thinking that she would walk a little more today. If she walked too much, she would be hungry. If she was hungry, she could eat a few more mouthfuls of food.

In this way, the children and grandchildren at home will not worry about her not being able to eat.

It’s really hard to be an old lady!

He Feng was far away, but he listened to everything. In He Feng's view, Qiao Lan was an extremely strong and sober person, and would not be so worried that he could not eat because of a dream. Xu used this move to strike a chord

Children and grandchildren, I hope they will grow up.

After all, none of the Duan family's children and grandchildren have inherited the old lady's skills.

Even a powerful person like the old lady will still worry about educating her children.

I feel sorry for the parents in the world.

These days without a system, Qiao Lan has experienced what it means to be worried.

You find it annoying when someone is around you, and you feel noisy when someone talks too much, but when they are not around, you miss them even more. This is the human emotion itself, which is extremely complicated.

Without a system, the journey is relatively smooth.

The Duan family went on the road as usual, reading, chopping firewood, and cooking.

It's just that Yu Zhao's family stuck to each other a little too closely, which made Duan Mingjing unhappy.

The main difference is that when Duan Mingjing went out to chop wood with a hatchet, the Yu family followed closely. Duan Mingjing chopped on the left side, while the Yu family chopped off Duan Mingjing's left and right sides.

After Duan Mingjing walked around, the Yu family chopped all the firewood next to him.

The thin branches were gone, and all that was left were the thick trunks surrounding them. Duan Mingjing could not cut them down, so he could only carry the firewood home angrily.

But this isn't the end yet.

Duan Mingjing came back with a small bundle of firewood, and the Yu family brought a full bundle of firewood, which was chopped by their family.

Duan Mingjing's chest heaved with anger. What did this mean?
