Su Xiaoxiao didn't recognize it at first sight, she only vaguely felt familiar. She didn't take it to heart, and walked past him with Su Ergou, who was still drowsy and confused.

The other party probably didn't expect that he would be so ignored by them. He frowned and said, "Su Daya! Su Ergou!"

Huh?

He could call their names, then did they really know each other?

Su Xiaoxiao stopped and turned around to look at him: "Who are you?"

Su Ergou rubbed his eyes, and focused his eyes to take a look at him. Then his body froze and he said, "Da biaoge*?"

*Da biaoge (大表哥) : Eldest cousin. Biaoge (表哥) : older male cousin via female line.

Father Su was an orphan and had no sisters. The only one who could be called ‘da biaoge’ was that Xiucai* of the Chen family.

*Xiucai (秀才) : a person who has passed the county level imperial exam / scholar.

What was he called?

Was it Hao ge*? Or Yuan ge?

*Ge (哥) : Older brother.

No wonder that Su Xiaoxiao couldn't remember him clearly. After all, the original owner of her body didn’t have much contact with this eldest cousin. Even if they occasionally ran into each other, he hardly talked to her.

Chen Haoyuan looked at them with a displeased face and said, "How could you guys be here?"

Su Ergou opened his mouth, and without waiting for him to speak, Chen Haoyuan's eyes fell back on Su Xiaoxiao's face, with some undisguised dislike and unkindness.

"Are you looking for me?" he asked.

What was this man talking about?

Su Xiaoxiao looked blankly at Su Ergou who was at her side. Her face was full of bewilderment, expressing how she could not understand what her eldest cousin was talking about.

"Do I know him well?" she asked in a low voice.

Su Ergou covered his mouth with his hand, and said in a low voice, "You used to like Da biaoge before. Did you forget? You even gave him a purse, but Da biaoge didn't want it."

“Isn’t the one that I liked before was He Tongsheng?”

"He Tongsheng was after Da biaoge."

Su Xiaoxiao: “……”

The two siblings were whispering, and Chen Haoyuan frowned more tightly.

Su Xiaoxiao secretly clenched her little chubby fist.

——Just how many people did Su Daya like? And with these scattered memories, it was really inconvenient ah.

Chen Haoyuan said coldly, "I have heard about what happened between you and He Tongsheng."

It seemed like there was something in his words. Su Xiaoxiao looked at him strangely for a while before she finally understood what he was insinuating.

He thought she could not marry He Tongsheng, so she came to provoke him again.

Wait, didn't Chen Feng and Mrs. Huang told him that she already had a handsome husband, Wei Ting, after they returned to the village?

Even though Chen Haoyuan was a scholar and was born with a good-looking face, if you compare him to Wei Ting, he was not good enough, okay?

Su Xiaoxiao glanced at the baggage in his hand, and then she understood it.

Chen Haoyuan lived in the academy and only had one day off every ten days. He only had a day off today. So he still didn’t know the things about Chen Feng and his wife who were causing trouble at the Su family’s house.

Su Xiaoxiao laughed ‘hehe’ sarcastically and said, "Who said that I came to find you?"

Were all of the ancient scholars so arrogant and proud as if they were a noble? He Tongsheng acted like that, and Chen Haoyuan was also like that. Each and every one of them looked so full of themselves and condescending.

Chen Haoyuan said proudly, "You'd better not! Besides, the academy is not the place for people like you to come. So it's better for you to just farm in the village. If you have nothing to do, don’t come out and make a fool of yourself!”

"What do you mean with people like us?” Su Ergou was not happy.

Ever since Su Xiaoxiao broke up with the Chen family, he didn’t seem to be as afraid of the Chen family as before.

“You know what I mean with ‘people like you’.” Chen Haoyuan dusted off his spotless sleeves.

The meaning was very obvious. Two peasants who were digging the ground, being evil bullies, had soiled the holy land of the scholars!

"That's all I have to say. You guys should take care of yourself!"

After saying that, Chen Haoyuan flung his sleeves and left.

Su Ergou looked at Chen Haoyuan’s back and scratched his head, muttering, "Jie*, why do I suddenly kind of want to beat him up?"

*Jie (姐) : Older sister.

Su Xiaoxiao: "Then you can go to beat him up?"

Su Ergou hesitated and said: "...I don’t dare."
