Chapter 2265 The Top Scholar Needs to Know So Much
In this back-and-forth exchange, the two 'clashed' ten times.
The onlookers outside gasped in astonishment, deeply impressed by Scholar Meng's profound knowledge of pregnant women. They couldn't believe that this top scholar not only knew the Four Books and Five Classics and was well-versed in governance, but also possessed such profound knowledge of such matters.
No wonder he was the top scholar.
Compared to the感慨 (feelings/reflections) of those outside the door, those inside were all smiles.
After all, there are ten red envelopes for every question asked, and now over a hundred have already been given out, and each one is quite large.
Lu Sanzhu sighed, clutching the red envelope he had snatched from the crowd, and said to Liang Shi, "The price of getting married is too high. You should teach Da Bao not to follow suit when he gets married, since our family isn't wealthy. But Bao Ya could find a sucker; the more red envelopes she gets for her wedding, the better."
"Keep your voice down, or you'll be called a sucker by Yunzheng, or your mother will come out and beat you." Madam Liang looked around, and the dog sneakily snatched the red envelope from Lu Sanzhu's hand while Lu Sanzhu's attention was diverted.
Lu Sanzhu: "Damn it, you cheated."
Hou and Kang, who were not far away, were also watching the excitement. They certainly wouldn't go into the crowd to squeeze in; they could only watch and laugh from the outside.
However, little Yao Mumu was different. Seeing everyone crowding around the door grabbing red envelopes, he insisted on joining in. His father, Yao Bo, had no choice but to carry him along as a token gesture.
But after several attempts, he didn't receive a single red envelope, which made Mumu very dissatisfied. He felt that his father was incompetent and immediately started making a fuss about going down to grab one himself.
Yao Bo almost couldn't hold him, but luckily A Ning ran over and stuffed two red envelopes into Mu Mu's arms, saying, "Here you go."
Mumu was instantly delighted, calling out "Sister, Sister" with boundless enthusiasm.
On the other side, Xiao Huohuo, who was also not allowed to grab red envelopes because of his short arms and legs, couldn't stand steadily or run fast, was fed by his own uncle Shu Rui and got two red envelopes. He excitedly waved them in front of Mu Mu.
Hou and Kang, who were not far away, couldn't help but laugh and said, "The Lu family members are all generous and take good care of the younger generation."
Isn't that right?
Not only A Ning and A Rui, but also Er Niu, put the red envelopes in his hands into his niece Xiao Zaozao's arms, then patted the little girl's head and ran to the front to squeeze into the crowd again.
However, Da Bao, who was standing to the side, scoffed at their behavior, saying, "Luckily, I don't have any juniors."
Turning my head, I met Bao Ya's expectant expression.
Da Bao's face stiffened, and he said angrily, "How old are you? If you're seven, go and snatch it yourself."
Bao Ya continued to stare at him longingly, then looked down at her wrinkled clothes, looking like she was about to cry.
Da Bao almost choked on his breath. He turned and left, but after a few steps, he quickly came back, cursing as he pulled out two red envelopes and stuffed them into her arms. "These are the only two. I didn't even get many myself. Look at your brother, my clothes are more wrinkled than yours, and my face is almost squashed out of shape."
Then she started nagging, "Why don't you ask your parents? Dad is a big guy, he's experienced in grabbing red envelopes, and he loves you. If you ask him, he'll definitely give you one. You're really useless, you can't even grab a red envelope."
After saying that, he pointed to Quan Quan, who was not far away, and said, "You should learn from him. He's so young, yet he already knows how to be filial to his older siblings."
