Liang Yulin picked up some food for the two little ones while he drank and ate with the people at the same table.
He was naturally happy that his daughter was getting married today.
The two little ones finished the food in their bowls before putting down their spoons and sitting obediently beside Liang Yulin.
Old Master Liang happened to be sitting next to Liang Yijia.
He smiled kindly at her and asked, “Are you guys full?”
Liang Yijia nodded politely. “Grandpa, we’re full.”
“Do you usually eat by yourself?” Old Master Liang asked with a smile. “And you ate it so cleanly.”
His great-grandson was more than four years old. Not only did he need maids to serve him when he ate, but he was also very picky. He often ate two mouthfuls and then gave up.
Liang Yijia smiled sweetly and replied, “After we were two years old, Mother taught us to eat by ourselves.”
“Mother said that it’s very hard for farmers to grow food and vegetables, so we can’t waste food.”
“Mother also taught us how to recite Peasant,” Liang Yiran said. “So we never waste food.”
“Then why don’t you guys recite Peasant?” Old Master Liang said with a smile.
Liang Yiran and Liang Yijia had always been very generous. Although the twins were not identical, they had the synchronization of twins.
They looked at each other and said in unison, “Hoeing at noon…”
Their voices were soft and sweet, and they shook their heads when they carried Peasant on their backs. They were extremely cute.
Old Master Liang had long heard that Shi Qingluo’s twins were smart and likable. Today, they were indeed too rare.
He really wanted to take them home and raise them.
Old Master Xi was also sitting at this table. He smiled and asked, “What else can you memorize besides Peasant?”
This table was filled with important officials of the imperial court and people like King Yi, who had a high status in the royal family. Therefore, the old man personally served them.
Liang Yijia replied, “We can recite a lot of poems. There are also the Three
Character Classic and the Disciples’ Rules. We can also tell stories.”
Old Master Xi was taken aback. “That’s amazing. Why don’t you guys recite it?” This time, Liang Yijia and Liang Yiran didn’t recite together. Instead, they recited a few sentences one after another.
Soon, they had recited more than ten ancient poems. Then, the old man told them the beginning of the Three Character Classic and the Disciples’ Rules, and let them continue the rest.
The two little ones were taken out, causing the people around them to stop eating and look over.
Old Master Xi and the others were shocked. They obviously did not expect the two little ones to be so powerful.
“You guys are really amazing.”
Liang Yijia and Liang Yiran puffed out their chests proudly and pretended to be humble, “It’s just average.”
“My brother is better. He only needs to listen to it twice to remember it. I need to listen to it three times to remember it.”
Everyone present was speechless. Wasn’t this too smart? They could remember it after hearing it two or three times?
“How about I test you guys?” another old man said with a smile.
The two little ones were not afraid at all. They were often tested by their grandfather and father. “Okay!”
Therefore, the old man read the article he had written and repeated it again.
Liang Yiran quickly repeated.
Liang Yijia had also memorized most of it. When the old man repeated it for the third time, she had also memorized everything.
The old man was stunned for a moment, then he repeated it again after half a cup of tea’s time.
Most of the people present were born in the imperial examination, and there were also many officials who were born in the imperial examination sitting beside them.
They had listened to it twice, and those who remembered more only remembered half of it. Those who did not remember much only remembered one or two sentences.
But Liang Yiran recited it fluently.
Liang Yijia had also memorized most of it. After listening to her brother’s recitation, she also remembered everything.
Liang Yulin had a proud look on his face. “My grandchildren have pretty good memories. Although they don’t have a photographic memory, they can remember it after two or three times.”
“It’s just average.”
Everyone present was speechless. They really wanted to beat up the smug King Yi. They were so jealous now!
They didn’t expect the twins to be so smart and cute.
What a pair of little geniuses!
An old imperial uncle looked at Liang Yijia and teased her. “If that’s the case, your brother is better than you.”
“My brother is indeed better at memorizing, but I’m better at telling stories than him,” Liang Yijia said confidently.
The old masters were all excited. “Then can Jia Jia tell us a story?”
Liang Yijia didn’t agree immediately. Instead, she looked at her grandfather.
Liang Yulin nodded at her before she got off the chair and stood up. “Then Jia
Jia will embarrass herself and tell everyone a story about the wolf.” “Once upon a time, there was a free-range child. He…”
Not only did Liang Yijia tell the story smoothly, but he also had rich expressions and movements. Coupled with her beautiful and exquisite appearance, she looked especially lively and cute.
After finishing her story, she bowed to everyone. “I’ve finished my story. Thank you, everyone!”
How could there be such a likeable young lady?
“Your Highness, your grandson and granddaughter are too amazing. They’re already like this at such a young age. They’ll be amazing in the future!”
“Yeah, how could my great-grandson sit still when he was this old? It’s even more impossible for him to memorize so many books.”
“My great-grandson can understand stories, but he can’t tell them so vividly like Jia Jia. ‘
“My grandson started learning when he was three years old. I was quite proud of him before, but compared to His Highness’ grandchildren, I’m ashamed.”
“Wangye, how did you teach him?”
The intelligence of the twins was beyond their expectations.
Not only were they beautiful and cute, but they were also so smart and powerful. They were really someone else’s grandson and granddaughter. They were too envious.
Liang Yulin’s lips curled up. “Their parents and I only taught them casually. The main thing is that the two little fellows are smart.”
Everyone present was speechless. If they were already like this after just teaching them, then if they taught them properly, they would probably ascend to the heavens. King Yi was really too hateful.
King Yi had enough of everyone’s envious gazes.
“But my daughter-in-law said that accompanying and leading by example is the best education. She said. “So you have to accompany your child more and restrain your behavior. You have to be a good example for your child.”‘ His daughter-in-law was really good at educating children and was very unique.
The people in the room carefully considered King Yi’s words. “You do make sense.”
“Princess Fu Bao is the best at teaching children.”
“Your Highness, your grandchildren are too likable. If there’s a chance, bring them out to play with my children.”
“Yes, yes. If there’s a chance, they can play with my child too.”
When the time came, he would see if they could be influenced.
Sigh, why didn’t they have such a pair of twins, grandchildren or great-grandchildren?
No wonder King Yi doted on the twins so much. If it were them, they would also dote on them..
