72 Fainted From Anger (1)

“My brother-in-law wrote it!” Su Ergou straightened his back and said!

“What does it say?” Madam Huang continued to ask her son.

Chen Haoyuan was shocked and rendered speechless by the calligraphy on the couplet. His throat felt like it was stuffed with cotton, and he couldn’t say a word.

He prided himself on his outstanding calligraphy and was often praised by the teachers. However, if one compared his calligraphy to the words on the couplet, it would not be an exaggeration to say that it was inferior!

At the side, the village head read out boldly, “All the lakes and seas are in spring! All the rivers and mountains are shining! The Myriad Phenomena update! Well written, well written!”

Everyone looked at each other.

The village head and Fatty Su read the same thing! The village head even praised this couplet for being well-written!

When Scholar Chen wrote the couplet just now, although the village head also praised it, his attitude was not so intense!

“Is this couplet real, Village Head?” a villager asked.

“Are there fake couplets?” The village head was puzzled.

The wife of the Sun family said, “Just now, Scholar Chen’s mother said that the couplets of the Su family are scribbles. They’re nonsense.”

The village head said seriously, “If this couplet is nonsense! Then everyone’s couplets would be nonsense!”

There was no one else who wrote couplets today. Did Scholar Chen write nonsense?

In the heart of the village head, this couplet was even more exquisite than Scholar Chen’s!

“The words are good, the mood is good, and the paper… is good.” It was so good that he was at a loss for words.

“Son!” Madam Huang placed her last hope on Chen Haoyuan.

His son was a scholar and was the most knowledgeable. His words carried the most weight. As long as his son said that the Su family’s couplet was wrong, it was wrong!

Chen Haoyuan was unwilling to admit that his handwriting was inferior to that of a country bumpkin. However, the cold sweat on his forehead betrayed him.

Su Xiaoxiao would not let go of this opportunity to give Scholar Chen a slap in the face. After all, he was always arrogant, as if he was the best in the world and everyone else was a toad in a pond!

“Aiya, Cousin, why aren’t you saying anything? Is it because my husband’s couplet is too good that you feel inferior?”

The villagers did not understand what it meant to feel inferior, but Scholar Chen looked up in shock.

At this moment, he really felt that Su Daya was different!

In the past, Su Daya would not be able to do anything. If she was anxious, she would attack. If she really wanted to scold someone, it would be with words that underscored her ignorance!

Could it be… that it was all taught by that rumored cousin-in-law?

Wasn’t he a bumpkin?

“Sister! He definitely didn’t write as well as Brother-in-law!” Su Ergou was a little fan.

The siblings echoed each other, making Madam Huang and Scholar Chen extremely awkward.

Madam Huang said, “You’re from the same village, so of course, you’re speaking up for your own village!”

She was accusing the village head of being unfair and deliberately biased toward the Su family.

The villagers were unhappy to hear this.

Madam Huang was not too smart. Originally, in order to obtain the couplet personally written by Scholar Chen, everyone tried their best to curry favor with Madam Huang.

Even the villagers who were usually just watching the show were helping her watch Fatty Su make a fool of herself.

They were already biased toward Madam Huang, yet they were beaten to death by her words. Did she say that they only protected their own villagers?

They admitted that the Chen family’s couplet was fragrant, but they were here to seek auspiciousness, not annoyance!

She really was really egoistic!

Madam Huang realized that she had said something wrong, but it was too late.

The villagers were no longer on her side.

Seeing that Madam Huang had courted death, Su Xiaoxiao shouted in her heart that she deserved it!

After all, the village head was not a proper scholar. His taste was limited. He might not have been convincing when he said that Wei Ting’s couplets were well-written.

Madam Huang thought so too.

Her son was the only scholar here. As long as her son did not admit it, the Su family’s couplet was nothing!

“Eh? Look! There’s a carriage coming over!”

A villager pointed in the direction of the village entrance.

Seeing a carriage in Xinghua Village was equivalent to seeing a luxury car in the ravine in her previous life. That was quite rare.

Was he here to look for the village head?

The carriage did not go into the main house. Instead, it stopped at the entrance of the Su family.

“Village Head, they must be looking for you, right?” the wife of the Sun family said.

The village head shook his head. He did not know this carriage and had never seen the driver.

Among everyone present, only Chen Haoyuan recognized that this was Dean Shen’s carriage. The coachman was a servant of the academy.
