Chapter 37 It’s no use glaring at me
Of course, only Su Yu thought so.
The expressions of the onlookers were indescribable.
Su Zhiqing, did you get kicked in the head by a donkey? Are you sick?
Most country people are straightforward and don't talk nonsense. If they have any questions, they will ask directly.
"Su Zhiqing, you're nodding, shaking your head, and twisting your waist. What are you doing?"
"Is it an opera?"
"Don't mention it. Even though he hasn't started singing yet, Su Zhiqing's dancing really looks like it."
......
The smile on Su Yu's lips froze, and his expression became a little unnatural.
He was in a hurry to come out and forgot to bring his book, otherwise he would be holding a book, reading under a tree—well, there was no tree, so that was negligible—with a focused expression and gentle features.
A bunch of ignorant bumpkins who know nothing.
How could he be nodding, shaking his head, and twisting his waist at the same time?
Still an actor?
How can such a person who is just there for people's amusement be compared with him?
The book says that in the past, scholars as elegant as jade all behaved like this when studying. This is the demeanor of a modest gentleman.
Su Yu despised the ignorant country people in his heart, and the sense of superiority that belonged to a scholar in his bones emerged again.
He looked contemptuous and even disdained to explain anything to this group of ignorant old men. After all, he didn't think they could understand.
From the beginning to the end, Su Yu's only target was Xie Jiaojiao. He wanted Xie Jiaojiao to understand that he, a high and mighty white swan, was no match for Jiang Ye, a toad in the stinking ditch.
Ignoring the pointing and talking around him, Su Yu cleared his throat and began to recite the obscure sentences recorded in the book.
"Man is born good; natures are similar, but habits make them different..."
"Su Zhiqing, what are you talking about?"
"It's so roundabout, I don't understand."
"It sounds like chanting. Could it be that Su Zhiqing is so depressed that he wants to become a monk?"
Monk?
Su Yu, who was concentrating on showing off her charm, almost bit her tongue when she heard the villagers' outrageous speculations, and the gentle expression on her face was slightly distorted.
The discussion in the crowd continued.
"Grandma, what is a monk? Can I be a monk?"
"Oh, my dear grandson, this is unacceptable. If you are a monk, you can't marry a wife. Only a fool would do that."
"Grandma, I'm not stupid. I don't want to be a monk. I want to get married."
“Hahahahahaha!”
The childish words made everyone laugh.
The loud laughter was like one slap after another, hitting Su Yu's face hard.
Su Yu couldn't hold it anymore and recited several words incorrectly.
"Wrong, wrong!"
The male educated youth were so surprised that they didn't notice that Li Jianye jumped out.
"It is the father's fault if he raises his child but fails to teach him, not the mother's fault if she fails to teach him."
"Also, if the teaching is not strict, it is the teacher's laziness, not the teacher's inability to teach."
In the field that he was most proud of, he was slapped in the face like this, but Li Jianye was right. Su Yu couldn't say anything to refute him. It was indeed because he was distracted and made mistakes.
Su Yu stared at Li Jianye, his face so gloomy that ink could drip out of it.
"It's no use glaring at me."
Li Jianye was not afraid of Su Yu's sinister gaze at all. With Su Yu's weak physique, no two more people could be his match.
When Liu Niannian was in school, she basically just muddled through. Her so-called good grades were all thanks to Xie Jiaojiao, not hers at all.
So, she didn't know who was right between Li Jianye and Su Yu.
But she knew that Su Yu's grades in school were indeed very good and he was a real nerd.
But Li Jianye looked very confident in what he said, and his expression did not seem to be fake.
It was difficult to tell the truth from the false, which made Liu Niannian, who wanted to help, feel a little embarrassed.
Suddenly, Liu Niannian thought of something.
She glanced at the other silent educated youth and the confused villagers, and immediately had an idea.
"Li Zhiqing, perhaps you remembered it wrongly." Liu Niannian stepped forward. "Although I'm not familiar with Su Zhiqing, we went to the same school. Su Zhiqing has excellent grades and his memory has been praised by the teachers, so he shouldn't be wrong."
Seeing Liu Niannian standing up and resolutely standing by his side in the embarrassing moment, Su Yu couldn't help but be moved. The eyes he looked at Liu Niannian were more affectionate than before.
Nian Nian, she...
She actually went to such lengths for him!
She was obviously such a proud person, but she lied for him and protected his self-esteem in front of everyone. She was like a fairy high above, who was willing to give up everything for him and come down to earth, using her frail body to shine a ray of light into his dark world.
Liu Niannian is such a noble and talented woman who makes an exception for Su Yu. On the one hand, she satisfies Su Yu's pursuit as a cultured person, and on the other hand, she satisfies the machismo buried deep in his heart. How can Su Yu not love her?
"joke!"
How could it be wrong if I memorized something after my butt was almost beaten to pieces?
Li Jianye unleashed a barrage of fire at Liu Niannian.
"I heard that Liu Zhiqing also graduated from high school and was always at the top of his class. How come he can't even tell who's real and who's fake?"
"Could it be that these results are fake? Is that why Liu Zhiqing is so brazen as to say such ridiculous things?"
I have to say that although Li Jianye's words are blunt and harsh, they are inexplicably accurate.
Liu Niannian's face turned pale, her hands couldn't help but tug at the corners of her clothes, and tears welled up in her eyes.
"Li Zhiqing, I, I just expressed my opinion. How could you humiliate me like this?"
"Besides, I didn't say who was right or wrong..."
Thinking of this, Liu Niannian couldn't help but feel fortunate that she had been more careful and didn't directly use her knowledge to help Su Yu prove it.
"Don't cry! I didn't do anything to you."
Li Jianye couldn't stand Liu Niannian's crying look, as if he was bullying her.
"Li Zhiqing, I, I..."
"Okay, I know your grades are fake, no need to tell me."
"There are many educated youth here, some of them are genuine, so I won't ask you any more."
Li Jianye's blunt words to convict Liu Niannian almost made Liu Niannian bite her teeth and the tears in her eyes flowed uncontrollably. She was just pretending, but now Li Jianye made her cry.
Su Yu saw this and felt extremely distressed, but he stood there like a piece of wood, without any intention of standing up and arguing with Li Jianye.
He was thinking in his heart: Nian Nian, I'm sorry to have to let you attract the attention first. He is a man and cannot lose face.
Liu Niannian caught a glimpse of Su Yu's expression out of the corner of her eye. Knowing Su Yu very well, she knew what Su Yu was planning at a glance. She became even more angry and cried even harder.
If it weren't for the fact that Su Yu was still useful, she would rather her brains be eaten by dogs than help him.
"Tell me, who is right, me or Su Zhiqing?"
Li Jianye turned around and directed his attack at the male and female educated youth who were watching the show.
Who is right? Of course, it’s Li Jianye.
but......
All the educated youth looked at Xie Jiaojiao and then spoke against their will.
Those who can't get over it say, "I don't know."
Those who wanted to curry favor with Su Yu said, "It should be Su Zhiqing, right?"
Li Jianye was both puzzled and unable to control his anger.
At this moment, an answer completely different from theirs sounded behind them.
