Relying on the system of criticizing people to become a god in farming literature

Chapter 9 Make a friend?

Cheng Duanli is a good-looking person. Although he has not yet reached the height of his crown, his figure has already grown, and he can vaguely get a glimpse of his future style.

Especially those eyes, when looking at each other seriously, they are like springs in an empty valley, making people calm down involuntarily.

All in all, he looks like a gentle and personable brother next door.

Cheng Yao was single in her original world and had not had much contact with boys, so she was a little nervous.

After coughing twice awkwardly, he said relaxedly.

"No, no, no, it's a trivial matter."

"In a way, you helped me a lot."

Cheng Duanli didn't understand, but that didn't stop him from being grateful to Cheng Yao.

"I haven't asked the girl her name yet? How should I call you?"

Cheng Yao bent down and picked up the remaining pieces of calligraphy on the ground, and responded with a smile when hearing Cheng Duanli's question.

"My name is Cheng Yao, you can also call me A Yao."

"Your handwriting is so beautiful. Here, here it is, but you have to keep it."

Cheng Duanli quickly packed up the paper handed over by Cheng Yao and said a little shyly.

"Thank you...Ayao."

But soon the faint blush on Cheng Duanli's face faded, and his face became pale again.

Cheng Yao thought he was accidentally injured somewhere, so she came forward to check with concern.

"What's wrong with you? Why does your face become so ugly all of a sudden?"

Faced with Cheng Yao's eager concern, Cheng Duanli felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

After he grew up, although the people in this village restrained themselves somewhat, they looked at him with a certain amount of contempt.

No one talked to him without any grudges or even took the initiative to care about him like Cheng Yao.

For a moment, Cheng Duanli felt a strange emotion in his heart.

But he was a little afraid, afraid that Cheng Yao didn't understand his life experience.

If the other party knew about it, he would probably stay away from him like everyone else...

"Thank you Ayao for your concern. I'm fine."

Cheng Yao was born with a strong ability to perceive emotions. After thinking carefully, she realized what Cheng Duanli's problem was.

She took Cheng Duanli to the foot of the tree and found a cleaner place to sit down.

"I was hiding in the dark just now, and I heard everything Li Wei said."

Cheng Duanli suddenly became nervous and looked at Cheng Yao nervously.

"You heard everything?"

"then you……"

Cheng Yao patted his shoulder freely and comforted him.

"Don't think so wildly. I'm not like those people who will look down on you because of this."

"These things are the grievances of the previous generation, and you can't participate or change them at all."

"No matter what the reason is, there is no excuse for them to take advantage of it and hurt you."

Cheng Duanli was stunned. This was the first time in his life that someone would say such a thing to him.

In the past, both my mother and outsiders had given up on this matter.

In the eyes of outsiders, since his biological father is unknown, he is inherently inferior to others.

No matter how big the hoops are, they cannot erase the initial mark of humiliation.

No matter how many grievances he suffered outside, he returned home to complain to his mother.

His mother could only helplessly persuade him to endure it a little while longer.

No one would stand in front of him like Cheng Yao and tell him categorically that this matter was not his fault.

Suddenly the tip of his nose felt sore and his eyes were slightly red. Cheng Duanli, who had always been strong, actually wanted to cry.

Cheng Yao also felt a little sorry for him and patted his back gently to calm his emotions.

Cheng Duanli couldn't help but feel a little funny when he saw that a fifteen or sixteen year old was being comforted by a girl younger than him, and smiled helplessly.

"You have a beautiful smile!"

"Don't be so sad in the future, think more about happy things!" Cheng Duanli received the praise, the tips of his ears turned red, and he nodded seriously.

"After this experience, we can barely count ourselves sharing weal and woe. Why not make friends?"

Cheng Yao stretched out her hand towards Cheng Duanli, with bright eyes, and seriously introduced herself again.

"My name is Cheng Yao, and I hope to be friends with you."

Cheng Duanli imitated Cheng Yao's actions and extended his hand, but he remembered the rules of men and women not being intimate and did not dare to touch Cheng Yao's hand.

"My name is Cheng Duanli. I'm glad to be your friend."

The two hands faced each other in vain, and those who didn't know thought they were performing some mysterious ceremony.

Cheng Yao realized that Cheng Duanli didn't understand the meaning of shaking hands.

Then he stretched out his hand further and grasped Cheng Duanli's big, well-jointed hand.

"Then from today on, we are friends!"

"Help each other and make progress together!"

After saying that, he took his hand back, and Cheng Duanli's palm became empty again, as if something had slipped away from his heart.

"However, as your friend, I have a few words to say to you."

"Li Wei's group of people are just wild dogs with missing teeth. They look very ferocious, but in fact they are strong but weak. They are afraid of too many things. If they are frightened casually, they will scare them to death."

"People have the instinct to seek good fortune and avoid harm. Bullying and fear of hardness are engraved in the bones of bullies. They are looking for honest people like you who are easy to bully. They see that you dare not resist, and the more you beg for mercy. The more excited I get.”

"In the face of people like this who are looking for trouble, don't hold on to the idea of ​​enduring the calm for a while and taking a step back to see the world. The rules originally restrained the gentlemen with a high sense of morality. This kind of scoundrel is completely beyond the control of the rules."

"In their world, it's actually very simple. Strong strength is the only right to speak. The power I just showed is obviously beyond Li Wei's control, so he feels scared."

"But when you can't completely defeat the opponent, you must show your fangs without reservation and show your attitude. Dogs will bite when they are anxious! A person in an angry state will also bite people to some extent! Others are panicking, because after all, they don’t want to risk their lives.”

After listening to Cheng Yao's words, Cheng Duanli's eyes became firmer.

In the future, he will go to the capital to obtain fame, and the people and things he will encounter will only become more and more difficult.

If he still has this temper, he will be teased by others sooner or later.

There is nothing wrong with being gentle, but if you completely lose your edge, you will only be looked down upon.

Unexpectedly, although A Yao is young, she sees things much more clearly than he does.

However, Cheng Duanli quickly realized the most critical issue.

"Ayao, you said a lot, I have memorized it all now."

"But there's one thing I can't figure out. You look so thin, how can you have so much strength?"

When she mentioned this, Cheng Yao wanted to avoid the problem.

She couldn't tell the other party that she had a system to back her up.

"Hmm...well, it's natural. I don't know what's going on."

"Anyway, it's a good thing for me, so that's it."

Seeing that the other party was trying to evade, Cheng Duanli wisely stopped asking further questions.

"Don't worry, if Li Wei dares to come to you for trouble in the future, you can come to me and I will help you."

"Besides, you are so good at reading and are the most promising high school in our ten miles and eight towns. The village chief must have put a lot of hope in you and hopes that you can bring glory to the village."

"You can also make appropriate use of some outside connections to give Li Wei some warning."

"In short, we can't be completely passive like today."

Cheng Yao was still a little worried and explained a few words with concern.

Cheng Duanli smiled and agreed one by one, repeatedly promising that he would remember it.

"I wasted a lot of time just now, and now I'm almost late for school."

"If you go late, you will be scolded by the master. I have to leave first."

Cheng Duanli realized that time was tight, so he quickly got up and asked Cheng Yao what was going on.

"Oh, then go quickly and we will separate."

"The days are long, we are destined to meet you."

After watching Cheng Duanli's figure gradually disappear on the field road, Cheng Yao was in a good mood and walked towards home humming a song.
