Zhu Dajun put his hands behind his back and began to show off his limited knowledge.
"We are lined up in a row. There are three people in front of me and three people behind me. How many people are there in this row?"
The children immediately started counting on their fingers, but Xiao Bao said, "Seven!"
Before anyone could react, they were stunned by these words.
Zhu Dajun sneered: "Nonsense, there are clearly six. Three in the front, three in the back, it's still six no matter how you count it, I knew it..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xiao Bao looked at him with an idiotic expression and said, "Aren't you human?"
Zhu Dajun: "..."
"Pfft..."
Someone couldn't help but burst out laughing.
A smile even appeared in Song Yanzhi's eyes.
Wang Tiedan, who was still counting on his fingers, was even more bewildered.
He can only calculate simple numbers; this kind of problem is still a bit difficult for him.
Zhu Dajun, realizing what was happening, blushed deeply.
The people around him looked at him with strange eyes.
"Isn't he the director? How come he can't even do something this simple?"
"Yes, even though I'm illiterate, I know there are seven."
"Xiao Bao figured it out in a flash. Could he really not be an idiot?"
"Yes, I hadn't even figured it out yet, and he already knew the answer. He's so smart."
Everyone became suspicious.
Zhu Dajun's chubby face turned pale and then red. "I was just testing you on purpose. It seems you're not as stupid as I thought. The real test is yet to come."
Xiao Bao clenched his little fists.
Zhu Dajun said, "I have ten yuan, I gave my mom fifty cents, how much money do I have left?"
Xiao Bao: "Nine yuan and fifty cents."
He thought to himself, "Your mother is so pitiful. She only gives me 50 cents out of ten dollars. If it were me, I would give her the whole amount."
Wang Tiedan was still counting on his fingers.
Zhu Dajun: "7 + 10 = ?"
Xiao Bao: "17".
Zhu Dajun: "10-3=?"
Xiao Bao: "7".
Zhu Dajun panicked, "30 + 15 = ?"
Xiao Bao paused for a moment.
Zhu Dajun immediately revealed a smug smile: "Can't figure it out, can you?"
He didn't even notice the increasingly strange and disdainful looks from those around him.
No matter how amazing Xiaobao is, he's only five years old.
How can you calculate tens?
Unexpectedly, Xiao Bao spoke up at this moment: "Three plus one equals four, zero plus five equals five, so that's four five."
He didn't know how to read numbers above forty.
But they already knew how to add it.
The people around him stared at him in astonishment.
His face was filled with shock.
Wang Tiedan, standing to the side, was counting on his fingers until they were practically smoking.
He still hasn't solved the problem from two days ago.
His mother looked grim. She usually boasted to everyone that her son, Tiedan, was a good student, because she knew how to count. Today, she was also full of confidence that her son would definitely do better than Xiaobao. But she never expected that Xiaobao would win so decisively.
Not to mention the other children, even her own son, Tiedan, didn't manage to answer a single question.
She was incredulous, and then her face turned bright red; she felt extremely embarrassed.
Feeling that her son hadn't performed well today, she couldn't help but pinch his cheek hard. "Tiedan, what's wrong with you today? How come you can't solve a single problem? Are you too nervous?"
"Ouch, Mom, it hurts!" Tie Dan was pinched and only then did he come to his senses.
She burst into tears.
He felt wronged too, because he was usually very good at math, and no one could compare to him.
But he didn't expect Xiao Bao to be so amazing, knowing how many there were without even counting on his fingers.
She retorted angrily, "You're the one who called Xiaobao an idiot, that's why I competed with him!"
Everyone looked at Tie Dan's mother with sighs of regret.
I never expected her to say such awful things.
Song Yanzhi's face was full of sarcasm.
"They truly are children from intelligent families. So this is how they are taught. We are indeed no match for them."
Everyone looked ashamed.
"Director Zhu, do you still stand by what you just said?"
Zhu Dajun's face was grim, and he remained silent.
"And a few parents, I remember exactly what you said. Everyone heard it, so you won't go back on your word, right?"
Wang Tiedan's mother was very unwilling. When she heard this, she felt that Song Yanzhi was showing off, and she became angry and embarrassed.
"Song Yanzhi, don't go too far. We're all from the same compound, do you have to say such nasty things?"
The other parents also didn't want to apologize, feeling ashamed, so they chimed in, "Yeah, it was just a joke, you're taking it too seriously."
“Your little one won, but his behavior in the past was indeed very strange, so it’s not our fault for misunderstanding.”
Instead of apologizing after losing, this group of people actually turned around and blamed others.
This is a classic case of "people need face, trees need bark, but people who don't care about face are invincible."
Song Yanzhi scoffed.
"Yeah, we're all from the same compound, we see each other all the time. Since you think calling someone else's kid an idiot is a joke, then your kid, who's not even as good as my idiot son, is even dumber than an idiot, a complete pig? Looks like I'll have to call your son that from now on too, is that alright?"
The men's expressions changed drastically, and they were furious: "You! How could you say such a thing about a child? You're so vicious!"
"I was just joking, you guys are taking it too seriously. After all, your child's behavior is indeed very strange, so it's not my fault for misunderstanding," Song Yanzhi retorted calmly.
He returned to them exactly what they had just said, without omitting a single word.
The group of people were so angry that smoke was rising from their heads.
Seeing that they couldn't take a loss, the others couldn't help but say, "You three, you just made a promise, everyone heard it, what's wrong with apologizing?"
