Xu Yuanqing hasn't come back yet, and Xie Xiuwen's display of strength this time is indeed a bit risky.
But Xie Xiuwen knew better that if his academic performance was mediocre, but it suddenly improved as soon as Principal Xu Shan came back, it made people think that he was even more scheming.
Therefore, even though I knew I might be targeted, I still had to take a gamble.
The day after the results came out, when Xie Xiuwen went to class, he found that his desk was broken.
It's not that it's completely broken, but it's obviously unstable and shakes when touched.
Xie Xiuwen tilted his head and saw that two legs of the four-legged table had been sawn diagonally. It was strange that the table was stable.
While Xie Xiuwen was sighing, Wang Jin had already handed over some pieces of waste paper.
"Just make do with it."
Xie Xiuwen thanked him, then slowly flattened the waste paper and folded it one by one, barely able to stabilize one corner.
There were no such things as bricks and stones in the school. Xie Xiuwen had been careful and controlled the strength of his writing, and finally finished the class.
"Douzi, go find a board or stone. It should be about this thick, but not too big."
As soon as he finished explaining, his desk was slapped.
"Xie Xiuwen, you are very good! Why didn't I see you get third place in the exam when I first came here? Did you hide your weakness on purpose before, or did you learn that Xu Shan was coming back, so you deliberately did well in the exam?"
These words are really trying to bring trouble to Xie Xiuwen.
It is not a secret that Chief Xu Shanzhang wants to accept disciples, and most of the students in the academy also know about it.
So during this period of time, everyone was holding back their energy to study hard, for fear that they would not be able to catch Xu Shanchang's eyes again.
But the problem is that they all want to save face, and no one will say this openly.
However, Fan Xing is a weirdo.
Xie Xiuwen doesn't like this.
"Brother Fan, I'm afraid I may have misunderstood. This is my second monthly exam since I came to the academy. Of course, there have been several quizzes before, but the problem is that my grades have been rising, as my husband has said before. You Why do you think I suddenly broke out?"
Xie Xiuwen explained it calmly, and some students around him agreed.
After all, since Xie Xiuwen came here, the worst test he took was at an above-average level, and in the previous few quizzes, he was indeed praised by his teacher. It's not like he got up all of a sudden.
People who originally had some opinions about Xie Xiuwen after hearing Fan Xing's words no longer agree with Fan Xing's views.
Wang Jin was more direct in his defense: "Brother Fan, why do you judge a gentleman with a villain's heart? Brother Zicheng has outstanding literary talent. Even when he was studying in our academy two years ago, Mr. Zeng De praised him. Besides, during these days, he has been forgetting sleep and food, focusing on studying, and everyone has noticed it, so how can any knowledge suddenly come out of his head?"
This is extremely true.
Many students also agreed.
"Indeed, Brother Cheng has been working very hard these days. You can tell just by looking at the paper and inkstone he uses. It has been so long since he came here that he has already changed two pens."
"That's right, when we took a nap at noon, Brother Zicheng was studying silently all the time. He did well in the exam this time because he worked hard."
Everyone was talking to each other, but Fan Xing was blocked and unable to get off the stage.
Xie Xiuwen had no intention of causing trouble for himself, so he took the initiative to hand over the steps: "Brother Fan really misunderstood. I heard that Brother Fan also fell ill before the exam, so he didn't do well in the exam. I believe Brother Fan takes good care of himself and will do well next time." It will definitely be among the best."
Fan Xing did not do well in the exam this time. He was still worried about how to explain it to everyone. Seeing Xie Xiuwen take the initiative to hand over the ladder, things went downhill.
"Hmph, if I hadn't committed the crime, how could I be after you?"
"Yes, yes, Brother Fan is a talented person with extraordinary talent. I could get a top grade just by taking the exam casually. It took me a lot of efforts to get like this. If I want to make further progress in the future, I'm afraid Difficult."
Xie Xiuwen said this beautifully.
Not only did he praise Fan Xing, but he also praised several other top students.
He was so self-effacing that he only managed to get a third place in the exam because of his hard work, which meant that he was not as talented as others and could only achieve success through hard work.
In this case, several geniuses who were famous in the class naturally laughed and stopped paying attention to him.
It can be regarded as a successful self-protection!
However, Xie Xiuwen's birthday was only two days old.
Seeing that someone had scratched his desk with a sharp instrument, making it useless, I felt worried.
Such a deep scratch, was it made with a knife?
How much do you have to hate him to make the table look like this?
Last time it was just the table legs that were sawn shorter, which was able to be fooled, but this time, how could he hide it?
And he didn't want to hide it.
The gentleman in charge of Class A is named Deng. He was born in Juren. He did not continue the scientific examination due to various reasons. Teaching at Mingshan Academy would allow him to support his family.
"This is too bad. You are all students who read the books of sages. How could you do such a despicable and rude thing? Who did it? I changed the table after lunch and I will forget about it. If not, I will report to the manager." There, at least you will be expelled from Mingshan Academy, and at worst, your reputation will be damaged, and whether you can continue the scientific examination will be a problem!"
Deng Juren's words are very serious.
He was also too angry.
I have been teaching here for many years and have never encountered anything like this. As a student, how could I do such a vulgar thing?
Moreover, he had seen the scratches, and most likely they were made by a dagger.
This is an academy, not a martial arts hall. This matter must not be tolerated!
Deng Ju was kind-hearted and wanted to preserve the reputation of the troublemaker and did not want to make a big fuss, so he made this move.
And when it was time for lunch, Deng Juren deliberately transferred all the people near Class A. The place was empty, which gave that person a chance.
When class resumed in the afternoon, Xie Xiuwen used a new desk.
Needless to say, this new one is easy to use and the desktop is flat and smooth. Is this an unexpected surprise?
Deng Juren did not specially arrange for someone to watch in the dark. Since he wanted to spare the other party, there was no need to hold on to him.
Besides, just because Deng Juren didn't arrange for anyone to follow him, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know who did it.
When Xie Xiuwen sat down, he smelled the faint fragrance of peach blossoms.
At this time of year, the peach blossoms have long been defeated. Where does the fragrance of peach blossoms come from?
Moreover, this fragrance seems to have not only the fragrance of peach blossoms, but also a little refreshing feeling of mint.
Xie Xiuwen looked around after class, and then noticed that someone had applied balm on the edge of the table. If he hadn't checked carefully, he might not have been able to find it.
Xie Xiuwen raised his eyebrows, Deng Juren's move was brilliant!
He calmly turned around in a circle, and finally stood in front of a classmate's desk. He glanced at the person who was sleeping soundly on the table, which was quite surprising.
It seems like he has never provoked this person, right?
