One day, my father bought some pears and specially chose the biggest pear for Kong Rong. Kong Rong shook his head, but picked out the smallest pear and said that he was tired: "I am the youngest and should eat a small pear. Give it to my brother. " Father was very surprised after hearing this. Kong Rong let the story of pear spread all over Qufu, and it has been handed down all the time, which has become a good example for many parents to educate their children.
When Kong Rong was a child, he not only studied hard, but also was good at thinking. His father always takes him with him when he goes out to visit. 10 years old, came to Luoyang with his father. It happened that Luo Yang was walking in Li Yingfu. At this time, the doorman quickly grabbed him and asked, "Which child are you? Go and play! " Kong Rong replied seriously: "Please go in and announce that Kong Rong, Shandong Province is visiting." The gatekeeper looked at him in all seriousness and wondered where he came from. He smiled and asked, "Little boy, do you have any red stickers?" Kong Rong said, "My family has been in contact with your master for generations, and there is a teacher-student relationship. You don't need a red sticker, just announce it. " The gatekeeper was afraid of treating the distinguished guests badly, so he had to go in and report. At this time, Mars was talking with many literati. After listening to the announcement, he couldn't remember the relationship between Kong Rong and his family for a while, so he had to laugh and say, "Come in!" Kong Rong, Jr. rushed into the hall, greeted the host and all the guests with humility. Li Ying gave up his seat, looked at the handsome boy and wondered, This child has never met before, but why does he claim to know his family? So, Mars asked, "Little Childe, you said that our two families have been friends for generations. Why can't I remember! " Kong Rong said with a smile, "Five hundred years ago, Confucius once asked Lao Zi, Confucius surnamed Kong and Lao Zi surnamed Li. It can be seen that Kong and Li have a friendship of teachers and students for five hundred years. Now you are Li, and my surname is Kong, which is also a teacher-student relationship. Aren't our two families a family for life? "
Kong Rong's words are amazing, and all the guests here are secretly amazed. Li Ying, the prefect, couldn't help laughing: "Little childe is really a child prodigy." Only Dr. Chen Wei, a Chinese medicine doctor, disagreed and said coldly, "People who are smart when they are young may not be successful when they grow up." Facing the challenge, Kong Rong said with a smile: "In this case, Mr. Wang must be very smart when he was young." This clever answer made Chen Wei.
Kong Rong made the story of pears a household name: Kong Rong's father gave the children some pears to eat, Kong Rong picked them first, but Kong Rong picked the smallest one. When his father asked him why he took the youngest, Kong Rong replied that he was the youngest and should eat the small one and give the big one to his younger brother. This story has always been a good teaching material for children's education and has become an eternal beauty talk. Its beauty lies in its modest style at an early age in Kong Rong.
