Chapter 79: A Serious Slap in the Face

"Uncle Tong, your words are too harsh!" Sun Junyan explained with a flushed face, "I just came back from the academy today and brought home some cold fried jelly and fried noodle strips. I accidentally found out that these two foods may be related to Xiaomai. Meipan and my mother are a bit impulsive, so..."

"Enough of your useless chatter." Tong Tiehu brutally interrupted him, his tone filled with undisguised mockery, "All I see is how your Qiao family aggressively came to seize Changsun's property!"

"Our village has only a mere scholar, and I originally had high hopes for you. Who knew your character would be so unacceptable! You completely twisted blatant robbery into concern for Xiaomai. Do you really think you're smarter than others because you've read a few more books?"

"So, everyone else here is a fool except for you?"

These two rhetorical questions, like two slaps, harshly struck Sun Junyan's face, turning him pale.

And to call him of all people, of poor character!
