The villagers suddenly felt a lot of respect for him.
"Cultivated Talent is very different from the rest of us!"
"Yeah, that is why he is a Cultivated Talent!"
"He is so smart, a Cultivated Talent knows everything!"
Due to the autumn harvest, Shao Liulang happened to be at home on the break from the college. Hearing the rumor, he felt so jealous that he sneered. "He doesn't read anything from the books, he is just trying to fool you all!"
The first section of the family was not helping the second and the third section of the family for the autumn harvest because they already owed them so much labor fees.
The second and third section of the family got really annoyed and only Eldest Uncle was willing to offer help.
Therefore, Shao Liulang was even more sour about Shao Yunduan.
But what could be done anyway?
The first section of the family was no longer helping them for free.
If thev dared to challenge them. thev would show the contract to them.
They had helped with the spring plow and would not continue to help them for free.
Shao Liulang was feeling very unconvinced. He went to Shao Yunduan and showed a fake smile. "I wonder what books you have read, Cousin. Can you loan the books to me?"
Qiao Xuan was mumbling about this annoying man inside her heart when Shao
Yunduan said calmly, "I am afraid not!"
"Why? You are so stingy!"
Shao Yunduan replied. "I came across the book when I was in the province but I did not buy it."
He did not trust his cousin's words. But he had no evidence to prove that Shao Yunduan was lying to him.
Shao Liulang continued in a forceful voice. "Oh, but how do you forecast the weather, what is the basis for it? Can I learn that too?"
Before Shao Yunduan said anything, Ms. Fang got quite displeased.
"Liulang, you are behaving over the top. Why must he teach you for free?"
Qiao Xuan added. "Yeah, he has mastered the skill and he is not going to teach anyone for free. You can pay him to teach you."
Shao Yunduan glanced at him and said nothing more. In silence, he agreed with what Qiao Xuan and Ms. Fang said.
Also, that made sense. He had no obligation to share his skills with others for free. Anyone who understood that would not even ask about it.
Shao Liulang snapped and said, "Then I am going to remind you, Cousin, that you are just fooling others. Be careful not to show your fox's tail!" Ms. Fang shouted. "What are you talking about?"
Shao Liulang stiffened and left the place in pretentious calmness.
Ms. Fang shouted behind his back. "Don't come to our door if you are going to continue to talk nonsense. Stay away from us, as far away as possible!"
"What kind of a man is that?!" Ms. Fang sneered. "Yunduan, just leave him alone, he is just narrow-minded and jealous."
Shao Yunduan smiled. "Don't worry, Mother. I don't care."
Qiao Xuan whispered to him. "Don't stress, I won't allow you to show your fox's tail!"
Shao Yunduan smiled and tilted his head, looking at her. "Okay."
After the autumn harvest, Qiao Xuan and Taotao continued making lipsticks.
Shao Liulang was ready to take the examination. He would make it to a Cultivated Talent if he passed it.
Ms. Ma and Third Uncle even took Shao Liulang to kowtow to the ancestors and asked for their blessings..
