Chapter 50 How Humiliating! Chapter 50 How Humiliating!

Xu Wenzhao saw it clearly.

Shen Lang took a moment to solve the first nine questions. There was no process of calculation. He could write the answers almost at a glance.

He thought that Shen Lang was writing nonsense.

I didn’t expect it to be all right.

This is ridiculous.

These nine questions were already very difficult to solve, and few people in Xuanwu city could do them.

Even if he was Xu Wenzhao, it would take a while and a lot of calculations before he could do it all.

Shen Lang only took a moment.

He, how did he do it?

The point is, he didn’t have any use for calculation. How did he do it?

Shen Lang must have never been in touch with arithmetic. Was he born with it?

This is too scary.

Xu Wenzhao closed his eyes, calmed himself down, and went to the tenth question.

Shen Lang answered the first nine questions correctly, and Xu Wenzhao was doomed to lose face.

The tenth question was about the honor of arithmetic and the wisdom of arithmetic.

Twenty trees, four per row, a total of a few rows.

He had seen this problem from the ancient books of arithmetic, and it took him more than ten years to come up with fourteen lines of arrangement.

Xu Wenzhao firmly believed that Shen Lang would not be able to complete it, because this was the true wisdom of arithmetic.

However…

Just one look.

Xu Wenzhao felt a tingling sensation on his head and a wave of fear on his body.

Damn, Shen Lang… Are you crazy?

No, god, are you crazy?

It was a geometric design problem, and it was obvious at a glance.

Xu Wenzhao could tell at a glance that Shen Lang’s answer went far beyond thirteen lines.

Then, he started counting.

Fifteen, sixteen, seventeen, eighteen… Twenty-three!

Twenty-three lines!

It’s creepy to be suspicious of life!

This, how did this happen?

Twenty trees, four per row, and you planted 23 rows.

How did you do it?

Are you a human or a ghost?

It took me, Xu Wenzhao, more than ten years to grow 14 lines.

How long did the key Shen Lang take?

Less than half an hour!

For a moment, Xu Wenzhao really doubted his iq, and he was a little discouraged.

He loved arithmetic and had high attainments.

Although there was no achievement in the imperial examination, he felt that he had no rivals in arithmetic.

It was because of this that he was in charge of the accounts of the entire Earl’s mansion and played an indispensable and important role in Earl’s mansion.

He was proud of it.

However, he found that his little arithmetic achievement had been crushed to ashes.

How could this not make him fall apart?

…

Madam is drawing.

She was very good at martial arts, but she didn’t like it at all because she practiced from the beginning.

She likes to draw, but is she good at it?

In any case, no one in the earl’s family dared to speak ill of it.

At this moment, the attendant beside the earl said quickly outside, “Madam, the old man asked you to hurry to the school.”

Madam said lightly, “What? Is jin mucong going to be beaten? Then let the teacher beat him.”

The earl’s aide said, “It’s not the crown prince who was beaten, it’s…”

Before he could finish his sentence, the countess said, “It’s natural for teachers to hit students, and so do others.”

The attendant said, “It’s Shen Lang Uncle. Xu wenzhao wants to whip Shen Lang Uncle 100 times.”

“Swish…” The brush drew a long line across the rice paper.

Madam’s painting was ruined.

“What’s wrong with Xu Wenzhao? Is he out of his mind?” The countess said angrily, “Lang is so smart and so obedient. Does he want to fight?”

With that said, she flung the brush in her hand and walked quickly towards the school.

The attendant followed, unable to catch up with him, and he could not help but feel sorry for his son for half a quarter of an hour.

…

Xu Wenzhao took Shen Lang’s answer sheet, her hands trembling and her face pale.

What should he do next?

Did he really admit defeat and apologize to Shen Lang in front of everyone?

Then what’s his face?

In this world, one has to pay attention to one’s face.

No, never!

Xu wenzhao tore Shen Lang’s answer sheet into pieces and scolded, “What a mess are you writing? None of the questions are correct!”

Anyway, after tearing it up, there was no proof of death.

Shen Lang was a little surprised to see this.

Xu wenzhao was no longer a narrow-minded person. He had a personality defect.

Do mathematicians have such emotional intelligence? How did the earl tolerate it until now?

The count frowned.

Even if Shen Lang didn’t answer the question correctly, why did you tear up all his answers?

Xu Wenzhao tore up Shen Lang’s answer sheet and said in a cold voice, “It’s all wrong. It’s a mess. What do you think we should do?”

However…

Shen Lang was not in a hurry because he always liked to think of the worst and was prepared for it.

“I had plenty of time just now, so I wrote two answers.”

Shen Lang handed it to old Old Master, who taught the book of changes, and said, “You are also proficient in arithmetic. Help me see. How many questions have you answered correctly?”

As soon as he said this, Xu Wenzhao was stunned.

How dare you, Shen Lang, be so shameless?!

His body shook violently, almost fainting.

Old Master took Shen Lang’s answer sheet and said, “People who study the book of changes love arithmetic. Although I am not as good at arithmetic as Mr. Xu, I can still see the right and wrong.”

Then, Old Master began to read the papers.

After seeing the whole thing, Old Master was completely stunned.

He was confident in Shen Lang and felt that he could answer at least three or four questions correctly.

But unexpectedly, it was all right!

Some of the questions above are really tricky.

The most amazing question was the last one.

He also studied for many years.

Xu Wenzhao finished 14 lines, he finished 15 lines, but he never showed it, but he was still pleased.

Didn’t expect Shen Lang to finish 23 lines?

This… This is too heaven defying!

This… This is a genius at arithmetic!

The count asked from the side, “Mr. Lin, how is it?”

Old Master lin bowed to the earl and said, “Congratulations master, you have obtained a genius in arithmetic! I have never seen or heard of you!”

The count said, “He, how many questions did he answer correctly?”

Mr. Lin said, “All the answers are correct, and Shen Lang’s arithmetic attainments have far exceeded the limits of these ten questions. I am ashamed of myself.”

The earl could not believe it at once, and his surprise was inexplicable.

His son-in-law had surprised him several times before, especially those unforgettable memories.

But does arithmetic have to be taught by a teacher? Could someone be born with it?

“Lang, how did you do it?” The count could not help but ask.

Shen lang said, “My father-in-law, I taught myself.”

The earl said, “But without a teacher’s guidance, how can you teach yourself to this extent?”

Shen lang said, “Father-in-law, there are times when geniuses are so outstanding that it’s very despairing. Together with mathematics, they rely on 99 % of the geniuses and 1 % of the sweat.”

Not only did Jin Mucong not want to talk to him, but even the earl did.

No wonder you, Shen Lang, have no friends!

Next, the earl wanted to ask Xu Wenzhao directly why he tore up Shen Lang’s answer sheet, but when he thought that there were more than a dozen students present, he kept his mouth shut.

The earl could not do it in public.

However, Shen Lang liked it the most.

“Mr. Xu, why did you tear up my answer sheet just now? Did you want to have an unconfirmed answer?” Shen Lang asked.

Suddenly, Xu Wenzhao’s face turned green and his teeth trembled with anger.

Shen lang said, “Mr. Xu, you said you would apologize to me if you answered five questions correctly. Now that I answered ten questions correctly, what should I do?”

“Of course, if you ask the teacher to apologize to me, the students won’t dare to force me. After all, I respect my teachers. But Mr. Xu, as a teacher, you must do what you say.”

As soon as these words came out, the whole audience of more than a dozen students were excited.

It’s rare to see them for decades.

The mean and overbearing Xu Wenzhao was about to be slapped in the face?

Suddenly, everyone looked at Xu Wenzhao.

Xu Wenzhao was hot and dry. This was the most embarrassing moment he had ever seen. He really wanted a crack in the ground so that he could get in.

Do you really want to apologize to Shen Lang, the little boy who is still wet behind the ears?

Then what’s his face?

“Hmph, I don’t know what to say. How is it proper?”

Then, Xu Wenzhao was about to leave.

Xu wenzhao wanted to cheat.

He had already decided not to teach in the future at the worst. He was in charge of the Earl’s mansion accounts and no longer needed to face these students.

At this moment, the earl spoke.

“Mr. Xu, as a teacher, the most important thing is to teach by example.”

To the earl, the tone of this sentence was already quite heavy.

Xu Wenzhao wanted to brush his sleeve, but he didn’t dare. After all, this was his master.

Then the countess walked in, her voice gentle but firm, “If you do something wrong, you have to bear it. If you say it, you have to count it.”

Xu wenzhao was a distant relative of his wife, so the countess was his backer.

Both masters had spoken, and he did not dare to be too presumptuous.

So, Xu Wenzhao gritted his teeth and came to Shen Lang. He bent over and said, “I’m sorry, Shen Lang! I was too much of a meng lang just now. I wronged you!”

Shame, shame that never existed before!

Earth, open a crack and let me in.
