The Educated Man and the Peasant

From “Stories to Get” by G.D. Morris
Once upon a time, there was a young man from Bucharest who had just finished university.
He was proud of his knowledge and smarts, and so decided to leave the big city and make his way
teaching peasants in the countryside. Immediately, he was met with difficulties. He found that people
didn’t take too kindly to being considered more stupid than he, for he was twenty-two and most of
the
people that he meet were much older.
If he was to teach them, he would have proved that he was smarter. Feeling confident of his
powers, he made a wager with a peasant. If the peasant couldn’t answer the educated man’s question
then the peasant would have to hand over three Lei. The educated man chuckled to himself. “This is

educated man quickly agreed and thought to himself. “This surely a fool!”
“What goes in the morning with two legs, at noon with four legs and in the evening with six
legs?” There was a long silence and everyone was staring at the educated man. He searched his brain
for a long time but to no avail. He did not know the answer and had a choice but to hand over five
thousand Lei, which was everything he had. Afterwards, the educated man was curious and so asked,
“So what goes in the morning with two legs, at noon with four and in the evening with six?” The
