At this moment, everyone turned around and looked in the direction of the sound.
Wang Xiaolan stood up from her seat, and the crowd naturally made way for her to come in.
She stood in front of Li Mei and Liu Tingting, staring at them intently. They were so frightened that they dared not look up and kept backing away.
Seeing the two people in front of her slandering the medicine she had developed, the rage in her heart was almost uncontrollable, but she took a deep breath, trying to suppress her anger, and said coldly: "Ever since I came to this cram school, you have been bullying me everywhere, and I have endured it. I didn't expect you two to become more and more rampant."
As she spoke, Wang Xiaolan raised her hand and slapped the two men a few times. The two men were stunned by Wang Xiaolan's hit.
Wang Xiaolan said, "If a tiger doesn't show its might, I'll think I'm a sick cat. I'm just giving you two a small warning."
At this time, Liu Tingting and Li Mei touched their burning faces and came to their senses. They rushed towards Wang Xiaolan together, but were held back by the onlookers.
"Wow, this barefoot doctor is so shameless! He actually hit us. He must be so bold...Everyone here, please bear witness for us!"
At this moment, the silence of the onlookers seemed to form an invisible wall. Li Mei's anger instantly ignited. She widened her eyes and roared angrily, "Is there any justice in the world? Are you all blind? You can't see such an obvious thing?"
Finally, a response came from the crowd, but the voice sounded a little cold and disdainful: "Our eyes are fine, but you should stop yelling here."
Hearing this, Li Mei was so angry that she was shaking all over. She pointed her finger at the man and asked angrily, "Then why didn't you say anything? Are you just going to watch this unfair thing happen?"
As she spoke, Li Mei's eyes swept over everyone present. However, to her surprise, everyone's eyes revealed an expression of disbelief, as if she was the evil one.
At this time, another voice sounded from the crowd: "Justice is in the hearts of the people, and problems cannot be solved by just talking." This sentence was like a basin of cold water, poured on Li Mei's heart, making her not know how to refute for a moment.
Wang Xiaolan sneered, "The public's eyes are sharp. You know clearly whether it's right or wrong. You say I'm bold, so what? You two idiots, you're always bored and have nothing to do. If you have the time, you might as well go out and collect manure in the countryside!"
At this time, someone in the crowd echoed, "That's right. With the two of them, they're not even fit to carry a dung bucket in the countryside, let alone carry dung! Don't dirty the bucket."
This sentence caused everyone around to burst into laughter, and Liu Tingting and Li Mei also showed embarrassed and angry expressions on their faces.
Wang Xiaolan cleared her throat, then looked at the whole class seriously and said loudly, "Classmates, I want to tell you something. The medicine I gave to Class Monitor Wei was carefully developed according to my own secret recipe! This secret recipe is not only convenient and practical, but also saves patients the tedious step of boiling medicine over a coal fire! Our traditional Chinese medicine is a precious treasure left to us by our ancestors! However, if we continue to stagnate and only stick to traditional methods, how can we succeed? As a Chinese medicine practitioner, I have the responsibility to carry forward this treasure and let more people benefit! Only in this way can we live up to our ancestors. So, I want to ask Liu Tingting and Li Mei, do you think I'm doing anything wrong?"
Faced with Wang Xiaolan's questioning, she felt a little overwhelmed and didn't know how to respond. After all, she really knew nothing about this knowledge and couldn't give a definite answer.
At this time, the crowd watching said, "Speak up! Why are you mute?"
One of the older students said, "In our class, these two are the loudest. It's time for someone to teach them a lesson."
Under the close scrutiny of many eyes, Liu Tingting's face flushed red, her lips trembling slightly as she stammered, "I, I, didn't, didn't..."
Her words seemed to be stuck in her throat and she couldn't finish them.
At this time, the onlookers began to whisper to each other.
One of them said with a hint of sarcasm and joking, "Hey! You weren't like that just now! You were talking like a machine gun, crackling, fast and loud. How come you're stuttering now? Are you feeling guilty?"
This remark immediately drew laughter from the others. Liu Tingting, on the other hand, became increasingly uneasy. She lowered her head, twisted her hands together unconsciously, and even beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
At this moment, Li Mei, who was standing nearby, raised her eyebrows, opened her eyes wide, and shouted angrily, "What the hell do you guys want to do? Why are you bullying Liu Tingting like this? If you have the guts, come at me!"
Upon hearing this, a tall, thin man in the crowd immediately responded with a disdainful voice, "Humph! Just based on the inhumane things you've done, I deserve to beat you ten times over. And you still say everyone is bullying her? I say! This isn't bullying, this is called being pushed beyond endurance."
As he spoke, he waved his strong arms, attracting the attention of people around him, who secretly agreed with what he said.
Someone else said, "Huh! Who do you think you are? You're just a little follower of Liu Tingting, and you really take yourself too seriously. You run around like a mindless fly all day, stirring up trouble and making our class a mess."
The person who spoke had a look of deep sarcasm on his face, and his tone was full of contempt and disdain.
At that moment, Zhu Dayong, sitting in the classroom, stared at Wang Xiaolan, wondering to himself, "Is this really the Wang Xiaolan I know? She actually knows medicine and can even make medicine? Yet, in the two years I've lived in the countryside, I've never heard her talk about these things. Could it be that she's been hiding her talents? Or has something happened to her that I'm unaware of after I left? Another thing that puzzles me is that although her appearance remains the same, I can no longer find the familiar look in her eyes. She seems like a complete stranger. Apart from her face, everything else has changed. What's going on?"
The more he thought about it, the more annoyed he became. He rubbed his temples, trying to clear his chaotic thoughts. After careful consideration, he found that all the clues pointed to the same conclusion - she had changed, completely transformed into a different person. However, even he found it difficult to accept or satisfy this answer.
…
At this moment, a noisy and booing sound suddenly came from the other end of the classroom.
