WHAT THEY REALLY MEAN (PRAGMATIC SUBTEXT)
“See? The book backs me up, I'm definitely right!”
💡 Cultural Insight: jin xin shu bu ru wu shu (blindly believing books is worse than having none) / The bookworm archetype

Traditional Chinese culture often depicts pedantic scholars who dogmatically revere ancient classics. The dialogue reflects a lighthearted comedic contrast where relying rigidly on written texts is deconstructed by reality.
