Miss President wants to talk to you

The only problem is

Hattie Wallace has never been a weak substitute.

Although she is not tall, she has a very short temper.

"Row!"

Elinor nodded. "Since you put it that way, then I'll teach you a few useful tricks!"

Chapter 92: Eleanor: I Have No Parents

"You're going to teach me?"

Hattie immediately sat up straight.

In the Norton Federation today, Eleanor's infamy is well-known.

Although it hasn't reached the point where the child stops crying at the sound.

But people with even a little status keep their distance from him.

I was afraid he would target me and then conduct a thorough investigation.

With Eleanor's guidance, I should feel more confident when I attend the hearing, right?

"Then, I'll leave it to you."

Hattie was sincere, saying, "I really don't want to see the Agricultural Adjustment Act fail because of the stupidity of those people."

This is her hard work and a career she truly believes in.

She was truly unwilling to let it all go to waste.

"it is good!"

Eleanor nodded.

"Since you agree, I have nothing to hold back. I'll teach you my greatest secret weapon first!"

Hattie held her breath and listened intently.

She was ready to learn intrigue and scheming.

"First, you need to recognize your own weaknesses."

Eleanor said, "Harty, it's not good that you like to argue with people, you need to change that."

"nonsense!"

Hattie blurted it out.

Why would she like to argue?

However, as soon as he said that, the office suddenly fell silent.

Eleanor didn't speak, but just raised an eyebrow at her.

"..."

Hattie realized something too.

But she was still unconvinced.

"What you just said was wrong from the start."

Eleanor didn't ask what was wrong, but only asked, "So it has to be corrected?"

"Of course!"

Hattie said confidently, "If no one corrects you, you will be taken as the truth."

"Proverbs 26:5 makes it very clear."

She looked serious and recited the Old Testament fluently.

“Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he think himself wise.”

Look!

She doesn't like to argue.

She was simply following the Lord's teachings to stop fools from spreading ignorance!

To everyone's surprise, Eleanor laughed after hearing this.

He wasn't one to enjoy debating, but it was a necessary skill for survival in the Federation.

Even if you're not religious, you still need to be able to recite the Bible.

For example, we're using it now.

"If that's what you mean, then let me ask you something."

Eleanor asked, "What does Proverbs 26:4 say?"

Hattie's expression changed.

Eleanor read it aloud for her: “Do not answer a fool with the folly of a fool, lest you become like him.”

These two sentences are right next to each other.

A sentence that requires an answer.

A sentence that tells you not to answer.

Hattie certainly knew that this was not contradictory.

The Bible is reminding believers that they must judge when to speak based on the specific circumstances.

"Whether you want to refute or correct, you should judge the timing before you speak."

Eleanor said, "But you don't judge at all. As soon as you hear a wrong statement, you immediately jump up and refute it."

“I didn’t!” Hattie said.

"Look, here we go again."

"..."

Hattie is really out of ideas.

She suddenly realized that she might actually have this problem.

This habit stems from her devoutly religious family; they are intolerant of any wrongdoing and will speak out if they see anything amiss.

"If I were your enemy, I would definitely target this habit of yours and set a trap."

Eleanor said, "For example, they might throw mud at you, making it sound like something that doesn't even exist."

"It keeps you busy arguing, causing you to lose your composure and judgment."

This move is called "creating cards out of thin air".

There's a lot to learn here, and it's not just this little bit. Now is not the time to teach Hattie this trick.

After hearing Eleanor's explanation, Hattie admitted that it made some sense.

But would I really be that stupid?

Do you get angry and lose your temper after hearing just a few words from others?

Probably not.

Hattie's expression at that moment did not escape Eleanor's notice.

It seems this girl still doesn't quite believe it.

Since that's the case, let her experience firsthand just how despicable those people can be.

"Hati."

Eleanor suddenly spoke, and Hattie looked up at him.

"what?"

"I heard you're only 1.49 meters tall?"

Before she finished speaking, Hattie's entire demeanor underwent a dramatic change.

Eleanor clearly saw that there was a raging fire burning behind her.

"Who! Said! That!"

She gritted her teeth, as if she wanted to tear Eleanor to pieces.

"This is a fabrication! Slander!"

Hattie retorted loudly, "I'm clearly 1.6 meters tall! Even without shoes, I'm still 1.51 meters!"

"Who said I'm only 1.49 meters tall? Make him step forward! Step forward!"

Eleanor shook her head calmly.

"I'm sorry, I can't say Edgar's name."

He said, "And I do think she's right."

"My eyes are the ruler!"

"You are indeed only 1.49 meters tall, you just wear padding to increase your height."

Hattie was absolutely furious.

"nonsense!"

She kicked off her shoes and stood in front of Eleanor.

"If you don't believe me, come and measure me with a ruler. I really am 1.51 meters tall!"

Eleanor looked at her calmly.

There was no response.
