Chapter 69 Is there anything extra?

Pei Yuan was thrown out of the house by his father. He staggered to his feet and quietly wiped off the dry grass and dirt that he had gotten from crawling through the dog hole. He tried to smooth out the wrinkles on his clothes, only to find that he only had one shoe on his foot. The other one was kicked somewhere when he was trying to grab the pills, and he couldn't find it.

"What are you dawdling about? You'd better perform better today!" Pei Guangming was more worried than Pei Yuan. He had made an appointment with his colleagues to drink, and if he broke the appointment again, he would be laughed to death.

Pei Yuan hung his head and entered the place he didn't want to enter even in his nightmares - his grandfather's study.

"Grandfather!" Pei Yuan spoke with fear in his heart.

Prime Minister Pei's anger had already subsided. He was paralyzing himself along the way. With so many children and grandchildren, it was normal for one or two of them to be useless. Fortunately, he was full of energy. The only child in the old man Tang's family was indeed talented, but he was sickly. In any case, he was the winner.

He would rather have a house full of Grand Tutor Tang's children and grandchildren, and fight him to the death to vent his anger. Now, he always felt that he was bullying others.

He habitually picked up the ruler and tapped it on his palm: "What did the teacher teach recently?"

Pei Yuan answered honestly: "I'm studying the Analects recently."

"Then tell me, what does it mean to review the old and learn the new so that you can be a teacher?" After asking, Prime Minister Pei muttered in his heart that it was such a simple answer. Looking at his grandson who was dumbfounded, he felt that he was overthinking.

"Reviewing the old to learn the new means that we should review what we have learned before and be able to comprehend new truths from it. Such people can be teachers."

Pei Yuan shuddered after he finished speaking. Is it so simple? Why did he find it obscure and difficult to understand before? Prime Minister

Pei couldn't help but sit up straight. After five years, Pei Yuan finally answered correctly. Could it be that he suddenly got it? He really didn't have greed and didn't expect Pei Yuan to speak as eloquently as Tang Yongning. He just hoped that Pei Yuan would not make people laugh at him as soon as he opened his mouth.

Prime Minister Pei hesitated for a while, wondering whether he should stop while he was ahead, so as not to be angry to death later. But then he thought, the beating was the fault of Pei Yuan and his unlucky father, so he might as well try again.

"A gentleman has nothing to compete for, so he must compete in archery! He rises with courtesy and rises with yielding, and drinks

with respect. His competition is gentlemanly. What about this sentence?" Pei Yuan blurted out: "This sentence means that a gentleman has nothing to compete with others. If there is anything to compete for, it is competing in archery. He bows respectfully before going on stage, and after the competition, he goes to the hall to toast each other. In this way, even if he competes, he is still a gentleman."

Prime Minister Pei's ruler fell on the table, and his eyes widened: "Who taught you this!"

Pei Yuan was puzzled: "Of course it was the master who taught you this. No, the master didn't teach this, he just read it through."

"Then how do you know the meaning?" Prime Minister Pei would never believe it, he figured it out by himself.

Pei Yuan was puzzled: "Am I right?" It's so strange. I couldn't figure it out before, but how come I suddenly knew it today.

Seeing that he was so ignorant, Pei Yuan guessed that he just happened to cram for the right topic, so he said in a deep voice: "You kid, knowing what you know and not knowing what you don't know is knowing!" "

Knowing is knowing, not knowing is not knowing, this is the real knowing?" Pei Yuan covered his mouth in horror. My God, is this what it feels like to speak eloquently? Even if he was talking nonsense before, he couldn't make it up.

Prime Minister Pei hurriedly pulled Pei Yuan in front of him and was so excited that he almost cried: "Yuan'er, you finally got it. Hahaha, there is green smoke coming out of my Pei family's ancestral tomb. Guangming, come in!"

Pei Guangming, who had been pacing nervously at the door, had a soft foot and almost fell down. What a name Pei Guangming, all the light is lost to Pei Yuan, this kid. It's so dark day by day!

He lifted his legs, which were as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and walked towards the study room, looking back every few steps. Why hasn't his mother come yet?

"Pei Guangming, you gave birth to a good son!"

When Prime Minister Pei said this, Pei Guangming knelt down reflexively: "Father, please calm down. It's your son who didn't teach his son well. Your son is willing to be punished."

Pei Yuan covered his eyes and looked at his father through the gaps between his nails. Why did he kneel down for no reason? His grandfather wasn't angry yet. This kneeling was in vain. He would have to do it again later.

Prime Minister Pei looked at his son strangely: "Why are you kneeling for no reason? A man's knees are made of gold and soft bones. This is the sequelae of being afraid of his wife!"

Pei Guangming didn't dare to say a word, but he was not at peace in his heart. I am afraid of my wife just like you. Who said that being afraid of your wife will make you prosperous? I am not only afraid of my wife, but also afraid of my father!

Prime Minister Pei was rarely friendly: "Why are you still kneeling? Today is a good day. Pei Yuan answered very well today. When you were ten years old, you couldn't answer such difficult questions."

Pei Guangming stood up tremblingly: "He answered well?" Dad, you are not saying this sarcastically. He always feels that it is safer to kneel all the time, otherwise his knees will not be able to bear it.

Prime Minister Pei put his arm around Pei Yuan's shoulders affectionately: "Tell grandfather why you have made such great progress. It's true that after not seeing you for three days, you should look at you with new eyes."

"It means that after not seeing you for three days..." Pei Yuan interrupted his grandson's words. There is no need to take the test. Today's knowledge is enough. It won't be too late to save it for tomorrow.

You haven't answered your grandfather's question yet: "Why is your academic progress so rapid?"

Old Madam Pei and Young Madam Pei, who arrived late, were stunned by the scene before them. Old Madam Pei patted her little daughter-in-law: "Ling'er, is my eyes blurry again? Why is your father so close to Pei Yuan?" Young

Madam Pei rubbed her eyes again, and after confirming that it was correct, she said: "Mom, did we see a ghost today? Strange things happen one after another."

Old Madam Pei glanced at her daughter-in-law with disdain: "You look like a ghost to me. Your father is probably controlling Yuan'er in advance to prevent him from running away later."

Young Madam Pei thought what her mother-in-law said made sense, so she said: "Then mother, you have to go quickly, otherwise your grandson will be in trouble again."

"I need you to remind me." Old Madam Pei rolled her eyes at her little daughter-in-law, and rushed forward in a hurry. Young Madam Pei hurried to follow.

Pei Yuan was thinking hard, how come he suddenly became smart? Was it because he was beaten by Su Changhe? Impossible, until this morning, his head was still buzzing, it was good that he was not beaten stupid.

By the way, after he took the pill this morning, not only did his injury heal, but his brain seemed to become brighter. He didn't know how to crawl into a dog hole before, and was always caught by his grandfather at the gate.

Pei Yuan exclaimed: "It's because I took the magic medicine given by Su Changhe, it must be!"

"You became smart after taking the Su family's pills?" Prime Minister Pei and Pei Guangming opened their mouths in surprise. Today in the court, everyone was talking about how magical the Su family's pills were. Tang Yanjun came back to life after taking the medicine.

"Do you have any extra?" Prime Minister Pei and Pei Guangming asked in unison.
