It is said that after Mu Meteor followed the orchid, he ran straight to Baihuayuan happily, and as soon as he entered the door, he saw Xiaocui, Xiaohong and a few maids cleaning inside and out, watering the flowers, wiping the countertop, and only Liu Rumei was missing.

Mu Liuxing caught Xiaohong and said, "Give the beauty in your courtyard to the master, and I will hand it over!"

Xiaohong has long been accustomed to the ruffian Mu Meteor, and said with a smile: "The prince is joking again, there are many beauties in the courtyard, I don't know which one the prince wants?"

Mu Liuxing said with a serious face: "Nature is the most beautiful one!"

Xiaohong said again: "Madame was still sitting in the hall just now, I don't know where I'm going now, but the prince will sit for a while, and Madame will definitely come in a while." ”

Only then did the wood meteor let go of Xiaohong, held the orchid, and walked to the gazebo and sat down.

As Xiaohong said, after a while, Liu Rumei walked in, but her eyes were a little red, as if she had just cried.

Liu Rumei saw Mu Meteor sitting in the pavilion, panicked, covered his face with his left hand, and gently wiped the corners of his eyes with an embroidered handkerchief with his right hand, before he walked towards Mu Meteor with a smile and said: "It's refreshing in the morning, I went for a walk, I don't know which gust of wind blew this martial arts genius to my Baihua Pavilion?"

Then he pretended to be angry and said: "I was very angry with others last night, why did I come here today?"

Mu Liuxing stared at Liu Ru's red eyes and asked, "Erniang, why are your eyes red? Who made you unhappy, tell me!"

Liu Rumei glanced at Mu Meteor and said, "People saw that you were so rusty last night, and they couldn't help but be depressed and cried all night!"

Mu Liuxing was suddenly a little embarrassed, and made up: "I practiced all day yesterday, I was a little tired from practice, and I didn't speak well to Erniang, and when I went back, I regretted it, no, I brought a pot of flowers to make amends!"

As he spoke, he raised the orchid in his hand.

Liu Rumei carefully took the pot of orchids and put it aside, then she pinched Mu Meteor's face and said with a smile: "Even if you still have a little conscience!

Mu Liuxing smiled and said: "It's nothing! It's not a good second mother who came to see me when she had nothing to do, it's just that she smells of sweat and has a sore back, if someone can help rub it, it would be better!"

Liu Rumei suddenly smiled like a flower, and habitually patted Mu Meteor's forehead, and Mu Meteor screamed in pain, which scared Liu Rumei.

Liu Rumei saw the red head of the wood meteor, and the circles under her eyes were slightly red. Gently took Wood Meteor's hand and pulled him into the bathroom......

After taking a bath, Mu Meteor changed into a set of clean satin, and joked with Liu Rumei for a while before saying goodbye and leaving.

Liu Rumei watched the wood meteor leave at the gate of the courtyard, and whispered resentfully: "Life is really like a dandelion!"

Mu Meteor asked the people at the door to prepare a sedan chair, went back to the house to tidy up their appearance, and then went out, after all, Yu Yu and Cuo Yuan were guests from afar, and they had been shrinking in the house for the past two days, and they should also take them to see the world and show the spirit of the eldest brother.

Mu Meteor went out, sat in the sedan chair, opened the sedan curtain, and told the sedan chair driver to leave for the downtown area of East Street.

To say that Wood Meteor opened the sedan curtain has its purpose, no, people bowed down to him everywhere along the way, and Wood Meteor was triumphant.

Boasting to himself: "Second and third, look, the eldest brother still has some prestige in the city!"

Wood meteor walked around the East Street, bought a few good-looking jewelry, felt hungry in the stomach, so let the sedan chair man stop in front of a restaurant called Weixiang Pavilion, go upstairs to eat, the store saw the wood meteor, immediately nodded and said hello, and arranged it in the upstairs seat.

Wood Meteor looked around, and diners nodded their heads when they saw his eyes sweep by.

Only an old man stared directly at the white paper in front of the table, concentrating, not caring at all about the gaze of the wood meteor.

This man was dressed in ordinary linen clothes, wearing a plain green linen crown, his head seemed to be larger than the others, his hair was gray but neatly combed, he had a small goatee, his beard was also mottled, his face was kind, and his eyes were a little blue, but he was full of energy.

This aroused the curiosity of the wood meteor, and when he leaned over to look, there was a crooked circle on the paper, which seemed to have been drawn by a human hand, and the old man did not find the wood meteor, and was still contemplating.

"What's so nice about this, isn't it just a circle, and the master still thinks it's something fun!" said Mu Meteor with a lack of interest.

When the old man heard someone next to him speak, he withdrew from his contemplation, and when he looked at it, there was a richly dressed ...... standing in front of him Chubby dun?

The old man heard a little disdain in Mu Liuxing's tone, but he was not angry, and smiled slightly: "Do you know how big it is? ”

Mu Liuxing was suddenly a little unconvinced, who is this old man pretending to be a wolf with a big tail here, the master will teach you today, and then said: "How difficult can it be to square πr?"

The old man asked puzzledly, "What is the square of πr?"

Mu Meteor scratched his neck and took two chopsticks from the table, one chopstick stood upright as a fulcrum, and the other chopstick was dipped in the old man's teacup, and held it together with the previous chopstick at a 30-degree angle, and as soon as he turned his hand, he drew a circle on the paper.

Mu Liuxing said: "Your circle is not regular, but I am regular." ”

As he spoke, he compared with his chopsticks, found the center of the circle, drew a line from the center point to the edge of the circle, pointed to this line and said, "This is called r, also called the radius of the circle." ”

Mu Liuxing scratched his head again and said, "As for this π, it's 3.1415926...... is an irrational number. ”

The old man was a little confused, as the smartest person in the world, he couldn't understand the words of this little chubby dun, so he simply spread his hands and said, "I didn't understand ......"

Mu Liuxing glanced at the old man with disdain again, and said: "Forget it, I see that you are also a little stupid, let me say this, this π is about an inch long, and the radius is exactly about an inch, that is to say, this circle is an inch multiplied by an inch squared...... It's about nine inches in size. Wood Meteor said, pointing to the circle.

The old man asked a little incomprehensibly, "What is this square?"

Mu Liuxing suddenly had a big head and said, "What stupid! You are the worst of the students I have ever led, the worst of the class." This square is a simple calculation of multiplication, for example, three times three, you can be three squared, four times four is four squared. ”

The old man listened with relish, but he was a smart man who was taught a lesson by a child about five years old, and he was still a little embarrassed, so he took out another piece of paper, wrote a question on it, handed it to Mu Liuxing, and said: "Little friend, regardless of whether the algorithm you just made is correct or not, why don't you solve this problem?"

Mu Meteor took a look at the question, and suddenly blurted out a sentence, the title is: There are pheasants and rabbits in the same cage today, with thirty-five heads on the top and ninety-four feet on the bottom, ask the pheasants how much they are?

Mu Meteor took the chopsticks, dipped the tea, and calculated, set the chicken x and the rabbit y, x+y=35, 2x+4y=94 ......

"There are twenty-three chickens and twelve rabbits!"

But this old man, surprised, although he can't understand the algorithm of the wood meteor, but the answer is right, so could it be that the circle he just calculated is also right?

Immediately, the old man counted in his hand again and again, and muttered, "Sure enough, it's him!"

Then he got up, walked to Mu Liuxing, and said with a smile: "I look at Xiaoyou's heavenly resources, would you like to worship me as a teacher?"

Mu Liuxing said with an unhappy face: "Who are you? Do you know who I am? You dare to take me as an apprentice!"

The old man was not angry at all, and said: "I am surnamed Zhuge for the old man, and my single name is a Rui character, as for you, you are richly dressed, you are very fat, and you are about five years old, if you guess well, it should be the Southwest Palace's Xiaoshizi Mu Meteor!"

Mu Liuxing was slightly surprised, but then he also figured it out, and said dissatisfiedly: "There are so many people here who know me, you won't know if you inquire a little, don't come here to pretend to be a magic stick, and affect the master's meal!"

The old man was not annoyed, he sat opposite the wooden meteor, quietly waited for him to eat, and the wooden meteor did not drive him away, about half an hour later, the wooden meteor was full of food and drink, asked the next person to pay for the meal, went downstairs and sat in the sedan chair, and set off to return home.

The old man saw the wood meteor moving and hurriedly followed.

When he came to the gate of Mufu, Mu Meteor got off the sedan chair, and the old man immediately followed with a smile.

Coincidentally, Mu Feng was standing in front of the mansion waiting for the wood meteor, at first glance, the old man behind him was a little familiar, and when he looked at it, he was suddenly a little surprised.

Mu Feng hurriedly stepped forward, waved at the old man, and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhuge is here, and he is not far away!"

The old man also laughed, replied, and said, "Lord Wang, I said goodbye ten years ago, and today we can see each other again, is your body safe?"

Mu Feng said with a smile: "The body is great!"

Then he welcomed Zhuge Rui into the wooden mansion and sat down, completely ignoring the wooden meteor.

Wood meteor is curious, and the cat peeks outside the hall.

I saw Mu Feng asking, "Mr. Zhuge came to the Humble House, what is the so-called matter?"

Zhuge Rui said with a smile: "I have excellent qualifications and want to accept him as an apprentice, so I followed him to the gate of the palace. ”

When Mu Feng heard this, he grinned to the root of his ears: "Is this true?"

Then he shouted outside the door: "Xing'er, since you have heard it, don't come in and apprentice quickly!"

Mu Liuxing walked in with a reluctant look and said, "Dad, this person is very stupid, how can he be my master?"

Mu Feng suddenly said angrily: "Presumptuous! Mr. Zhuge is recognized as the smartest person in the world, if he is not worthy of being your teacher, who else in the world can be your teacher?"

Then his face softened slightly: "Didn't you ask me to find you a teacher, all the gentlemen I know are not as talented as Mr. Zhuge , do you know that the scholars in the world who want to worship him as a teacher can be lined up from the southwest county to Kyoto, kneel down quickly, and hand tea to Mr. Zhuge !"

Mu Meteor reluctantly knelt down, took the teacup, and handed it to Zhuge Rui.

Zhuge Rui saw that he was reluctant and not annoyed, but he didn't take the teacup and said, "I'm not convinced, why don't we make a bet?"

Wood Meteor suddenly became interested and asked, "What kind of gambling method?"

Zhuge Rui said: "Simple, if you lose, how about you be my apprentice?"

"And what if I win?" asked Wood Meteor.

"If you win, get out of the palace immediately and don't bother anymore!" Zhuge Rui said confidently.

Instead, Mu Feng got up and stopped: "How can Sir be like this? No matter if you win or lose, Mu Mansion is open to Mr. at any time!"

Zhuge Rui said: "It's okay!"

Then he looked at Mu Liuxing and said, "How about betting on whether there will be rain tonight?"

Wood Meteor staggered outside, looked at it for a while, walked into the hall and said, "The sun is shining outside, and there are no clouds, so I'll bet on rain!"

Zhuge Rui's eyes froze, and he was even more determined to accept the apprentice, but he asked quietly: "Since you said that the weather is sunny, why do you want to bet on rain?"

Mu Liuxing smiled: "I see that you are full of confidence, and there must be demons when things happen, so I bet on rain!"

Zhuge Rui smiled again and said, "Okay, then I'll bet that there will be no rain tonight." ”

Then he got up and said to Mu Feng: "Since the bet has been set, then the old man will no longer bother, and he will come to visit tomorrow!"

Mu Liuxing kept staring at Zhuge Rui's expression, but he couldn't see what he was thinking at all.

After Zhuge Rui finished speaking, he was about to leave, but was stopped by Mu Liuxing, who said: "Wait, I thought about it for a while, I bet there will be no rain tonight!"

Mu Feng immediately got up and shouted angrily: "Presumptuous! The bet has been made, how can it be child's play?"

Then he said to Zhuge Rui: "There is no way to teach the son, please don't blame Mr."

Zhuge Rui smiled but waved his hand, and said, "It's okay, then I'll bet that there will be rain tonight! Shizi, we'll see you tomorrow!"

As he spoke, he walked towards the gate of the house.

Seeing this, Mu Meteor knew that he had been tricked, and wanted to open his mouth to change back to the bet, but Mu Feng's eyes stopped, so he could only give up.
