Chapter 36 Who is the bumpkin talking about?
Shen Jiayi thought that Gu Yan's family was uneducated, so she was considerate and didn't ask too many questions. She was worried that Gu Yan would think too much.
In fact, Shen Jiayi was thinking too much.
Although Gu Yan didn't know what she was thinking, looking at her pitying and apologetic eyes...
She was at a loss for words, and probably guessed that Shen Jiayi had misunderstood.
But there is no need to explain this matter, so let's just leave it as a misunderstanding for now.
As the two were talking, they came to the oldest and most nostalgic bookstore on the main star. After entering, they looked at the rows of books and then quietly went to look for the books they needed.
In this era, e-books have not yet become popular, so there are still many paper books.
And people are more accustomed to reading paper books.
Gu Yan quickly selected several review materials, covering a wide range of topics.
In her previous life, she had worked very hard to be admitted to the first academy in the empire. Buying materials to review and study at this time was also to achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Besides, it’s been such a long time, what if I have missed some knowledge points?
When Gu Yan had chosen the books and was about to go find Shen Jiayi, he saw Shen Jiayi standing not far away with a grim expression on her face.
Next to her, there were two taller women.
One of the women looked a bit like Shen Jiayi. They both had willow-shaped eyebrows, but their eyes were long and narrow.
Although her facial features are pretty good.
But it seems a bit mean.
At this moment, the young woman was sneering and bullying Shen Jiayi, "No matter how much you read, you can't change your country bumpkin background. And if your aunt hadn't returned to the main star city, you'd probably be on some remote and backward planet with several children by now, right? Humph."
The woman next to him sneered, and it was obvious that she was in cahoots with this guy.
Shen Jiayi clenched the two books in her hands slightly, turned around and was about to leave.
"What? You just said a few words and left? Did I say something wrong? Xiaohua, you should just stick to this name. Why did you change it to Shen Jiayi? Do you think that just because you changed your name to a quiet one, you can really become someone from the upper class? Besides, do you deserve the surname Shen!?"
"Xiaohua? This name is so rustic." The woman next to her said.
"Cousin!" Shen Jiayi gritted her teeth. She saw that everyone around her was looking at her with strange eyes. Her face turned red and her body was shaking.
I can't wait to find a place to hide.
Nana Shen said even more disdainfully, “Who is your cousin! Humph!”
When Gu Yan came over, Shen Jiayi was already crying. She turned around and just wanted to disappear immediately.
Gu Yan suddenly grabbed her hand and asked, "Shen Jiayi, what's wrong with you?"
"No, nothing."
Gu Yan looked up at the two young women across from her. The one who looked a bit like Shen Jiayi crossed her arms and held her chin high. "Why, are you still going to stand up for this bumpkin?"
"Who are you talking about, bumpkin?"
“The bumpkin said that about her!” Shen Nana interjected, but when she saw the people around her covering their mouths and laughing, she realized it belatedly and reacted.
I got myself into this trap.
She was furious and yelled, "Where did you come from, you bumpkin? Get out of here right now!"
When they spoke before, they used normal tones, which was fine.
But Shen Nana’s voice was not good, it was considered a loud noise.
Gu Yan said calmly, "Comrade, this bookstore is a place for everyone to read and choose books. You are shouting here. Isn't that too uncultured?"
“Who are you calling uneducated?” Shen Nana was furious, and her voice rose another pitch, causing her companions to change their expressions, and they couldn’t help but pull her.
However, Shen Nana had never been criticized like this since she was a child. She stared at Gu Yan, “Where on earth did you come from? I’m teaching my cousin a lesson, what’s it to you!”
"Hey, Comrade Shen Jiayi, is this aggressive comrade your cousin? But didn't she just say she wasn't your cousin?"
