Kong Rong shook his head, but picked out the smallest pear and said, "I am the youngest, so I 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.
