303 Tortoise and Hare Race

It may be that he imagined the situation in the inner fort of the Xu family too mysteriously before, so when he could move freely in the inner fort, when he saw that this was not much different from the ordinary Zhuangzi in the inner castle of the Xu family, Sima Yi's heart was very different.

He stood in front of the hotel, a little disappointed.

The inner fort of this Xujiazhuang is only a little more than the outer fort, the road is a little wider, and the chimney above the southeast corner is a little higher.

Wait a minute! Chimney?

I heard that all the iron ore of Gongsun Chan was transported to Xujiazhuang, and a master smelter was responsible for forging weapons, is this the place?

Sima Yi had seen the Xu family knives captured by the Yuan clan, each one was the same shape, and they were all the same tough, not to mention sharpening iron like clay, but compared to the blades in their Cao clan's arsenal, it was more than a little stronger.

In the past few years, Gongsun Chan has relied on these Xu family blades to kill countless enemies on the battlefield, from an unknown junior to the chessboard of the Daqing power field.

If this matter had been put five years ago, their Sima family would not have believed that Gongsun Zhan would still have a chance to win against Yuan Shao and dominate the three states of Merge, You, and Hebei.

Now it seems that the existence of the Xu family is indeed the biggest variable in this.

When Sima Yi came, he had already investigated all the backgrounds of the five members of the Xu family, and the ordinary peasants were really no different from those refugees.

Xu Da's resourcefulness and tactfulness, Wang Pingping's military strength, and Xu Yue's three siblings' early wisdom and military value, all of these should not be possessed by a person from a peasant background.

Could it be that as the people near Yuyang said, the Xu family is the reincarnation of the gods?

Sima Yi remembered that Xu Yue, who he had come into contact with, was really a little girl who was smarter than ordinary people, at most she was too smart than her peers.

Anyway, it's not like some reincarnation of a god at all!

But that wristband that can show the time......

Sima Yi took out the electronic watch he carefully placed on his chest, and on the gray-green dial, the black numbers jumped, and the time jumped from twelve to twelve at noon.

And below the minute, there are small black dots representing the number of seconds, beating again and again.

Xu Yue said that every time this little black dot jumped, a second passed.

With such a precise time, Sima Yi dared to say that no one could do it before that!

If this is not a means of the gods, then what is more?

There was the sound of children frolicking in the distance, Sima Yi suppressed his beating heart, put away the electronic watch, and walked over to follow the frolicking sound.

"Xu's Kindergarten—" Sima Yi read the plaque on the house.

Being able to read simplified characters so accurately shows that he did a lot of homework in advance before coming to Xujiazhuang, otherwise he wouldn't be able to read this half of the simplified characters at all.

The kindergarten is built next to the health center, and it is now the noon activity time, and the nurse girl on duty is playing with the children in the kindergarten with the newly appointed Gongsun Yun.

In the first two years, a large number of young people of school age who meet the needs of women 16 and men 18 in Xujiazhuang married and formed their own small families under the witness of the main family.

Therefore, now there are a number of children in Xujiazhuang who are just able to stagger around, plus Zhao Adou and other children, a total of sixteen.

Those over the age of six are sent to the school system to study.

For young children, the purpose of the Xu family is to educate and entertain, and there is no need for these little dolls who are still breastfeeding to do anything, as long as they are healthy and lively, and can lay a little foundation for formal enrollment.

The main task of the children is to play.

For the young mothers in Xujiazhuang, this shortens the time cost they need to pay for production, allows them to work as soon as possible, frees their hands, and improves the production efficiency of major factories.

Sima Yi stood outside the garden, watching these children, who should have been taken care of by their mothers or female elders, being led by two young girls to play games.

The big young girl shouted the slogan "One, Two, Three Wooden People", and the children all stopped and stood there obediently.

If someone can't stand up and shakes their body, it will cause the other children to laugh.

Immediately afterwards, the child who could not stand took over the task of the young girl shouting the slogan and became the supervisor.

The children had a lot of fun and ran sweaty.

This kind of activity did not last long, the weather was hot, and even if the yard was full of trees, it was not as cool as the house.

The children, led by the eldest girl, lined up to enter the nap room, and then heard a three-year-old clever boy lying on the upper floor of the upper and lower layers of the bed shouting:

"Sister Nurse, shall we listen to the story of the tortoise and hare race today?"

"Zhao Adou, please lie down!" The eldest girl first glared, and when she saw that the clever boy was obedient, she nodded and said:

"How about we tell the story of the tortoise and hare race today?"

The big kids all say yes, but the little ones don't speak, and they just giggle at the big brothers and sisters.

The newly appointed Gongsun Yun'er looked at the cute children and couldn't help but look forward to this story.

The eldest girl's voice is very gentle, and it is completely two faces when she stares at people, and in her gentle voice, the story of a tortoise and a hare in a race, and in the end it is the persevering tortoise that triumphs over the proud and complacent rabbit.

The story is very short, but the deep meaning contained in it surprised Sima Yi outside the hospital.

Using small animals that children can usually come into contact with to be humans, and weaving small stories with educational meaning, this is much easier to understand than the long speeches of the masters in the school.

The eldest girl in the house asked the child named Zhao Adou, "Zhao Adou, what do you say this story tells us?" ”

Zhao Adou thought seriously for a moment and replied: "This story tells everyone, we don't look down on the turtle that can't run fast, modesty makes people progress, pride makes people backward, we must do things in a down-to-earth manner, we can't give up halfway, so that we can succeed, sister nurse, am I right?" ”

The eldest girl nodded with satisfaction, "Yes, Zhao Adou, you are right, everyone should learn from the humble turtle, don't be a proud rabbit, okay, go to sleep, don't talk......"

The room gradually quieted down, and Sima Yi, who was outside the courtyard, muttered in a low voice that Zhao Adou said, "Modesty makes people progress, and pride makes people backward", the more I reminisce, the more I feel that this sentence is extremely exquisite.

Sima Yi suddenly had an impulse to rush in and ask, who said this!

Of course, he didn't think that Zhao Adou, a three-year-old child, could sum up such philosophical words, and he must have heard it from somewhere.

Maybe it was taught by the elders in the family, or maybe it was taught by the nurse sister in this kindergarten.

So, who was the first person to pass this sentence on to the nurses and the elders of Zhao Adou's family?
