Later, Meng Mu and Mencius went to the market together. People come and go in the market, selling things, and it looks very lively. But after Mencius moved here, he imitated the vendors in the market and peddled with his neighbors and children every day. After a while, he learned how the vendors devoted themselves to welcoming guests and bargaining. When Meng Mu saw Mencius like this, he felt that this market was not suitable for Mencius to live in, so he decided to move again.
This move, the mother and son moved to a nearby school. Mencius did not change his hobby of imitation after he moved here, so he often went outside the school to observe the words and deeds of school teachers and then imitate them. The school teacher's words and deeds are much more modest and polite than those of the tomb people and street vendors, so Mencius, who imitated his words and deeds, gradually standardized his words and deeds in the process of imitation. When Meng Mu saw this result, he felt that the environment here was very conducive to the growth of Mencius, so he settled down.
In order to find a living environment suitable for the growth of young Mencius, Meng Mu took pains to move many times and finally settled down near the school. Mencius lived up to Meng Mu's expectations. He grew up to be a very famous figure. It is precisely because Mencius made great achievements when he grew up. Meng Mu moved three times? The story will spread to this day and be familiar to most people.
