Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

"mother?"

Ying Zhuoxiu looked at Shangguan Tang, who was somewhat different from his memory.

"Mother's here, Mother's here, Zhuo Xiu, how are you feeling now? Are you still in pain?"

Shangguan Tang pulled the person into his arms.

"It doesn't hurt anymore, Mother, I'm all better now." His eyes reddened as he leaned affectionately into his mother's arms.

"My Zhuo Xiu, you've suffered so much these past years..." Shangguan Tang burst into tears.

"Mother, I'm fine. I'm the one who made you worry!" Tears finally welled up and fell.

It was as if he had been in a long dream, and when he woke up, it felt like a different world.

"Young master, sob sob sob..." The servant looked at Ying Zhuo Wengxiu, who had regained consciousness, covered his mouth, and tears streamed down his face.

Poetry and calligraphy, as well as poetry and painting, also brought tears of joy.

[Host, you didn't expect this, did you? Your brother's supposed madness isn't an illness at all.]

The person who cast the curse wanted your brother to suffer agonizingly and go mad, so they activated the mother curse, causing the offspring curse planted inside your brother to become agitated, driving him to madness.

In the urgency of the situation just now, she didn't even have time to think. Now that things have quieted down, Ying Yufu feels as if all the blood in her body has dropped to freezing point, and she feels a deep-seated hatred.

Inside the eight-hole copper box, the blood-red Gu worm was still jumping around wildly, clearly indicating that the owner of the mother Gu was still causing trouble.

[Little Dian, who is the owner of the mother Gu? Ying Nanyao? Or someone else?]

[Host, you are Ying Chengting.]

This answer surprised Ying Yufu slightly, but not unexpectedly.

So, all these years, my brother has endured boundless pain and torment, his life and death constantly in Ying Chengting's hands?

[Yes, host. 】

[Xiao Dian, I want revenge! I want to make Ying Chengting suffer a fate worse than death, to make him experience all the pain my brother suffered, and to make him pay for it tenfold!]

[Host, the Thousand Gu Guide can not only control Gu worms, but also raise them. One day, the offspring Gu will become powerful enough to control the mother Gu.]

【Little Madman, when will that day come? I want it as soon as possible, as soon as possible, so that the Zi Gu can grow.】 Ying Yufu was filled with hatred.

[Host, the system recommends the Gu King Pill to you!]

When fed with Gu King Pills, the offspring Gu can grow rapidly within three days.

Not only can it control the mother Gu, but it can also control most Gu Kings, becoming the King of Gu!

[Okay, Little Madman, I want the Gu King Pill, I'll buy it no matter how many points it costs!]

[Host, the price of the Gu King Pill and the Thousand Gu Inducing Pill is the same, 300 points each!]

Ying Yufu didn't rush to buy anything. Instead, she asked, "Xiao Dian, my brother has been controlled by Gu worms for so many years. Has his body suffered any damage? Are there any medications to treat it?"

【Host, I was just about to remind you that your brother suffered considerable brain damage during the years he was controlled by the Gu worms. Even though he has regained consciousness now, he still has lingering health issues.】

Although he is normal now, he will still experience excruciating pain from time to time in the future, which will affect his lifespan.

Moreover, your brother is a highly intelligent genius. After all these years of suffering, it's inevitable that he won't be as agile as before.

Therefore, the system recommends the Nourishing Spirit Pill, one of which can cure the root cause of the illness, but it requires 500 points.

Ying Yufu remained unmoved and decisively said, "[Purchase the Spirit Nourishing Pill and the Gu King Pill!]"

[Ding! Purchase of Nourishing Spirit Pill and Gu King Pill successful. The system has deducted 800 points, and the current balance is 3338 points.]

Ying Yufu immediately took out two pills, putting one into the Thousand Gu Guide to feed the offspring Gu.

The other one was prepared for my older brother to take.

After venting her emotions, Shangguan Tang stopped crying and instead carefully observed Ying Zhuoxiu's appearance.

His face was so thin that he was just skin and bones, and his clothes hung loosely on his body.

But you can still see that he has perfect bone structure, perfect facial features, and a slender physique.

Ying Zhuoxiu shifted his gaze from Shangguan Tang to Ying Yufu.

"Mother, has my little sister grown so much?"

His younger sister was only seven years old when the accident happened.

Shangguan Tang felt a pang of sadness. "Zhuo Xiu, eight years have passed..."

"Eight years..." Ying Zhuoxiu was slightly dazed.

"Brother, have you been completely oblivious to the outside world all these years?"

If the older brother's memory is still stuck eight years ago, doesn't that mean he only retains memories from when he was nine years old?

However, the older brother was naturally intelligent and was smarter than most people from a young age.

Ying Zhuoxiu shook his head. "It's not that I'm completely unaware."

"Most of the time I'm in a daze, but occasionally I feel like I'm half-awake and half-asleep, vaguely sensing the presence of blessings and the passage of time around me."

Youfu is the servant's name.

"I never imagined that Zhuo Xiu was not ill, but was poisoned by a curse."

Right before my very eyes, my child is being manipulated and tortured every moment, and his suffering is indescribable…”

"Mother, the person who controls my brother is Ying Chengting."

When he wanted his brother to have an attack, he would activate the mother Gu, causing the child Gu to become agitated, making his brother suffer excruciating pain, worse than death.

Shangguan Tang was stunned.

"Haha, hahaha..."

Shangguan Tang suddenly burst into laughter as if he were insane.

She was smiling, but her face was filled with pain and hatred.

"What wrong has my child done? Why must she endure such pain and torment? Fu'er, Zhuoxiu, your mother has married into a den of devils!"

Shangguan Tang's voice was filled with anguish.

I thought it was all the work of the Cheng family woman, but I never expected that in the end it was someone close to me.

"Mother, there's no use in being sad. We will definitely avenge what we deserve."

Ying Yufu said.

Ying Zhuoxiu looked at Shangguan Tang with concern, raised his thin hand, and gently placed it on Shangguan Tang's shoulder.

"Mother, I'm alright now."

He comforted her gently.

Despite suffering so much pain, he did not complain or harbor resentment; all he saw was compassion and heartache for his loved ones.

"elder brother."

Ying Yufu called out and handed over the Nourishing Spirit Pill.

"This is a Spirit Nourishing Pill, which can repair the hidden injuries left by the Gu worms."

Ying Zhuoxiu was taken aback. How did his sister know that he had a slight headache?

Without hesitation, he swallowed the Nourishing Spirit Pill, closed his eyes to rest for a moment, and felt as if a cool and gentle current of energy flowed through his body.

Wherever the airflow passes, the pain is gently soothed.

He was immersed in this cool and comfortable feeling, and sleepiness gradually crept in.

"Mother, my brother needs to take a nap after taking the medicine. Don't disturb him."

Just then, a cold voice rang out from the woods outside.

"Madam, someone from the Cheng family has arrived. The Marquis requests your presence in the front hall."

Shangguan Tang's expression turned cold, and he instructed Youfu, "Keep an eye on the young master and don't let anyone come to disturb him."

Youfu wiped away her tears of excitement and said happily, "Don't worry, Madam, I will definitely protect the young master."

Youfu was a beggar child that Ying Zhuoxiu picked up when he was a child. He followed Ying Zhuoxiu since he was a child and has stayed by his side all these years.

Upon arriving at the front hall, Ying Nanyao was also helped in by servants.

Upon seeing Shangguan Tang and Ying Yufu, his gaze immediately darkened.

Madam Cheng sat to the side drinking tea with a grim expression. When she saw Shangguan Tang, she couldn't help but sneer.

"Sister Shangguan, have you just been crying? Why are your eyes so red? Did your crazy son have another episode?"

She asked that question on purpose; she knew how to say it in a way that would cause Shangguan Tang pain.

Shangguan Tang gave her a cold look and gestured for Shishu to step forward.

Shi Shu then handed over the things he had found to Shangguan Tang.

It was the marriage certificate and engagement tokens with the Cheng family.
