Medicine in Song Dynasty

Chapter 237 Knowledge
Su Tong smiled and watched Erlang continue to write on the paper.

Erlang's handwriting is much better than before, his strength penetrates the back of the paper, and his handsomeness reveals peace.

"The fourth step is to first pour the remaining wine in the seven-jin barrel into the three-jin barrel, and then fill the seven-jin barrel with the wine in the ten-jin barrel. At this moment, the wine in the three-jin barrel There is one catty left, two catties are left in the ten catty barrel, and the seven catty barrel is full. Fifth, fill the seven catty barrel with wine for another three catties. At this time, two catties are poured into the seven catty barrel If there are five catties left, pour all the wine in the three catty barrels into the ten catty barrels, just split them up, and if you have five catties on each side, it will be considered an equal share."

Erlang's cheeks flushed with excitement.

Su Tong nodded with a smile, and he felt embarrassed again: "It's my younger brother who doesn't use his brain. It's actually not difficult. I need my elder sister to remind me."

Ah Yue was still in a daze up to this moment, after thinking for a long time, she still couldn't tell the difference.

Su Tong laughed: "Ah Yue should study arithmetic hard."

"Why do I learn arithmetic? I'm not that kid Fang Shou." Ayue puffed up her face and yelled angrily, which made Erlang couldn't help laughing, and said to his sister with a smile: "Fang Shou also went to Kaifeng to study last year. The number of imperial books, the six arts of a gentleman, he can't do five homework well, just one of them, Ah Yue can't catch up."

Not only Ah Yue, but even Erlang, who was enlightened early and practiced diligently, fell behind.

No way, it's all a matter of talent.

Ah Yue always said that Fang's family was in business, and Fang Shou's family had a long history, so it's normal for him to be good at arithmetic. Well, at a young age, I'm afraid the name of Overlord will spread far and wide.

When it comes to learning, he will also know a few words.

Besides, the Fang family always wanted all their children to be born in the imperial examination so that they could change families. They never taught Fang Shou arithmetic at all, only urged him to read and write.

But Fang Shou's kid has a head for science. Erlang and the others, ordinary people who have to study hard so as not to fall behind, are really inferior in terms of aptitude compared to the young man from the Fang family who can master everything as soon as he learns. There are some gaps.

However, God is very fair. Fang Shou is talented in arithmetic, but he is not good at serious reading and writing. The articles he makes are dry and uninteresting.

Su Tong couldn't help sighing after reading it. If it was the Ming and Qing dynasties in the future, maybe he would be able to write stereotyped essays with his temper. Although it would still make the examiners uncomfortable, he might still pass the exam.

But in the Song Dynasty, in the Song Dynasty where there were many talented people, ahem, Su Tong felt that the Fang family should not bother, and honestly let him learn some business skills, at least they could become a family.

Su Tong smiled and called the ashamed Erlang and the depressed Ayue to his eyes, and picked out some topics for them.

"You can think about it when you have nothing to do. Doing these logical thinking exercises is good for you... In fact, the main thing is not the topic itself, but the method of summarization."

Su Tong sighed, and briefly talked about various methods of solving problems, such as hypothesis method, exclusion method, calculation method, analysis method, etc.

Each method is illustrated with an example.

Not only Erlang and Ayue, but also girls like Azhen and Axia, who don't care about such miscellaneous questions, were fascinated by it.

A Xia let out a sigh: "I really should let Mr. Chen see and see who the first teacher in the academy should be."

Su Tong smiled.

Of course Chen Mo is knowledgeable, smart, and can teach, but Su Tong has a cheating device. The 'school' she can only enter in her dream is a school that specializes in cultivating talents who can teach and educate people.

I also don't know how Liu Ranran, the time-traveling senior, could resist having such a high ability, but didn't reveal it all his life... Although it's not appropriate to say that Liu Ranran is low-key.

If a time-traveling woman is as ups and downs as Liu Ranran's life, and can coax the eldest wife to take care of her concubine, never forgetting her for decades, and taking care of her child as her own, it may be better than her. Bandai's unification of the rivers and lakes has become even more legendary and mysterious.

At least, Su Tong felt that even if he was stuffed into his mother's stomach and lived another eighteen times, no one would have such ability.

Shaking her head, she pressed the center of her eyebrows, not thinking about those meaningless things—probably in Liu Ranran's heart, her little ability was nothing at all.

After all, in their time, everyone was the same.

Accompanying Erlang and Ayue to do logic problems for a while, Su Tong told them two deduction stories to exercise their brains, until the two boys were so sleepy that they dozed off, and then sent them back to the room to rest .

When Su Wencheng came back, it was the dead of night.

"Daddy, why is it so late?" Su Tong asked Ah Zhen to light up the lamp, and they went to the main room together. When they entered, Li Xiuniang was sweeping the dust off Su Wencheng's body.

I probably didn't go to any good places today.

"Not asleep yet?" Su Wencheng's eyes were blue, and he sat lazily on a chair, stretching out his hand to be served by his bride, "Little girl, it's better to go to bed earlier, don't stay up late, these days the official family Let me go to the palace to teach him how to farm... Maybe I will be busy for a while."

I don't know what's wrong with that young official!
These words were a bit taboo, as a minister Su Langjun naturally couldn't say it, but the expression on his face was already obvious.

Su Tong laughed, and quickly asked the kitchen to bring beef noodles to fill his stomach.

Because he didn't go home, the fire in the kitchen never went out. The beef soup was boiled enough and had a strong aroma. Even Li Xiuniang ate half a bowl of it regardless of the growing amount of meat on her waist.

Su Tong didn't want to be a light bulb at first, but today he sent a bunch of posts, not only for Su Wencheng and Li Xiuniang, but also for her, so he must inform his father.

"It's nothing else. Anu from Zhifu's family is getting married next month, and she actually invited me over. Normally, I'm not familiar with her, but she sent a special post..."

Su Tong frowned. As soon as she received the post, she panicked. She didn't know the reason. She always felt that something might happen, but Kou Yu was the magistrate of Kaifeng Prefecture after all. He was a former minister of the late emperor. The officials wanted him to be an envoy recently. As an envoy to Daliao, if such a person marries his daughter, what kind of trouble can he marry?
Su Wencheng obviously didn't think much about it, and sighed while eating the noodles: "Mr. Kou is not easy. Since his daughter has posted the post, you can go and have a look. The marriage is in a hurry, so we can help if we can."

Although Anu's mother is a concubine, she is also a mother. When she passed away, her father was in a hurry to marry her, so he had to finish the marriage within a hundred days. It is inevitable to rush.

Su Tong smiled wryly. In fact, everyone knew that Anu's mother had been dead for a year, and her body was already a bone. There was nothing wrong with this marriage.
