Because of Yinzuo's convulsive behavior just now, Kangxi kept him by his side and watched over him until the end of the one-year-old ceremony to prevent him from harming the child again. Although it was Hongxu's one-year-old ceremony, he had nothing to do with the rest of the matter after the ceremony. Yinzuo asked Dexi to personally carry the child to Yuanlanzhai to give to Wuren Tuya. After respectfully seeing his father off, he continued to play music and dance with his brothers.
After Hongxu's birthday party, Yinzuo thought he could have some peace and quiet for a while, but his little ones obviously didn't think so. No sooner had Yinzuo and Wuren Tuya moved to Enze Garden with their children than Yinzhi, Yinreng and the others sent Hongyu, Hongxi, Hongqing and Honghui to him, saying they were afraid he would be lonely...
The string of ellipsis at the end of the previous paragraph really captures Yin Zuo's mood at the moment. How can I describe it? Two words—uncomfortable. He couldn't even open his mouth or move his legs. It was so uncomfortable.
"Big brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, don't you think you're being too much? Is this a school or a kindergarten? Or do you think I'm a good child caretaker? By sending them here, aren't you afraid that they'll become like me, unmotivated and just lazy? I can't take care of them. I absolutely can't take care of them at all. Take the children back as soon as possible, so I don't have to send people to take them to you one by one."
Obviously, Yinzuo was worrying too much. Since Yinzhi and the others dared to send the child to him, they naturally had no worries that he would lead the child astray. If you ask them why they were so active in sending the child to Yinzuo, the answer is actually very simple. It was just because they found that after sending the child to Yinzuo to live for a while, their own children seemed to have become a lot stronger.
Take Hongqing and Honghui, for example. They used to get sick every time the seasons changed, but this year, not only were they fine, but their bodies were even stronger than their fathers. Yinzhi caught a cold when the weather turned cold, but his son, who had always been in poor health, was still alive and kicking. They decided that since Yinzuo was so good at raising children, they could just send the children to him. As for whether the children would learn bad habits from their sixth uncle, they weren't worried, after all, their fathers were still here, right? At most, they would just have to work harder and make more trips here.
"Look at what you said, Sixth Brother. They are your nephews. They like you so much. How could you bear to send them back and hurt their feelings? The brothers didn't send them to you on purpose to make things difficult for you. You know, Hongqing has not been in good health. Ever since he stayed with you for a few months last time, I found that he seemed to be much better. You see, the temperature dropped a few days ago and I caught a cold. He ran back and forth between Wuyizhai and Yichun Garden every day, but he is fine. We thought that since you can raise children, we could leave them here with you."
Well, now that they have said this, how can Yinzuo, as an uncle, refuse? This is okay. With Hongxi, the carefree days of Hongyu and the others in Yinzuo's house are over. He was puzzled. Why did they become monkeys in front of their eldest and second brothers, even though they were well-behaved and sensible children? And they were not the kind of cute golden monkeys. They turned into the cousins of Mount Emei. Yinzuo, a Tathagata, had a hard time suppressing Hongyu, Hongxi and the other four monkeys. But Yinzuo himself was still quite confident. He did not take these annoying things seriously. There is a saying that goes, this child coughs all the time... No, it's another mistake. It's the child who is disobedient, most likely because he is spoiled. The solution is simple. Just give him a beating.
"Come, Hongxi, Hongyu, Hongqing, Honghui, all of you come here. Do you see those piles of books on the table? Go and have a look yourself. Take whichever pile you like. Sixth Uncle thought about it. The reason why so many of you have time to spend on my garden every day is, in the final analysis, all thanks to Sixth Uncle. I fought for the benefits I got for you when I was studying in the Shangshufang. You didn't have the chance to experience the 120 times of Dafa prescribed by your Mafa. But it doesn't matter. Sixth Uncle has always been able to correct his mistakes. I have prepared the things for you today. Each of you will get one copy. From now on, go back and either recite or copy. Anyway, you must complete the 120 times. I will send someone to keep an eye on you. Don't think about being lazy."
When Yinzuo said this, it was like a bolt from the blue. The guys were so shocked that they were burnt on the outside and tender on the inside. They were in a daze. They reluctantly walked to the table, took the books on it, opened them, took a look, and started wailing.
"Sixth Uncle, if you want us to memorize or copy, you should at least prepare something normal. Why don't you take a look at what you've prepared? Western studies, there are so many words in there. We don't know many of them, so how can we memorize them? And if we don't know them, what's the point of copying them a hundred and twenty times?"
Yinzuo glanced at Hongqing who was holding a book and protesting to him, raised his hand to call him over, and when he came to him, he tapped his forehead with his fingers and said with a smile.
"Don't I know that you won't understand a lot of things in there? But won't you learn even if you don't understand? I'm telling you, Sixth Uncle is doing this for your own good. You should know that your Mafa people have always valued Western learning. Didn't you also have Western learning classes when you were studying in the Shangshufang? Think about it, if you learn this well, wouldn't you be able to show off in front of your Mafa people? It doesn't matter if you don't understand. We are slow birds that can fly first. Your Ninth Uncle is good at both mathematics and Spanish. You can ask him for advice when you have nothing to do. How can he refuse you..."
Could Yin Zuo refuse Hong Yu and the others? You must admit that they really could, and their reasons were perfectly legitimate. He was so busy with the Ministry of Works that he had no time to teach the children... Yin Zuo now felt like he had lifted a rock and dropped it on his own feet. His previous incitement had aroused the children's enthusiasm for learning Western knowledge. He thought that this trick of diverting the trouble would give him a few days of peace, but he never expected that these hot potatoes would eventually fall into his hands. However, facing the children's enthusiastic and thirsty eyes, what could Yin Zuo do? He had to swallow his words even if it meant breaking his teeth. Isn't it just teaching children? No problem, he still didn't believe that he couldn't teach a few little kids with the knowledge of two lifetimes.
But isn't there a saying that not everyone can succeed in the education industry? Yinzuo was quickly broken down by a few little guys. No, their Aisin Gioro family is really getting worse with each generation. Why does he think that it was not so difficult for his brothers to learn these things when they were young?
"Did I call you guys idiots? No, calling you idiots is an insult. You can't even answer such a simple question? I've explained it several times. You're staring at the board in class, but why are you staring at my face? What? The answer is on my face. Come on, I'll explain it one last time. If you don't succeed, you'll die. Do you understand?"
Seeing Yinzuo's furious look, Hongyu and the others didn't dare to say that they didn't understand. They looked at each other and nodded quickly to show that they understood.
