"Your idea is very ideal." What if she couldn't find someone better? She didn't ask this question out loud. A child his age was still immature in his thinking. However, because he was intelligent and had strong ideas, she really didn't want to discourage him.
Fu Xiangbei smiled, looking a little shy.
Zhong Yuxiu was stunned. The child was really good-looking, with big eyes and double eyelids, a high nose bridge, and lips that were neither thin nor thick. His facial features were inherited from Mr. Fu, which were rather strong. Because of this, she was even more certain that the child would be a handsome boy when he grew up.
"What are you talking about?" Yan Guofeng asked when he saw that they were chatting happily.
"Just chatting, Xiangbei is very talkative." She praised him and said nothing else.
Mr. Fu was quite surprised. "He's still talkative?"
Zhong Yuxiu looked at Mr. Fu in confusion, then looked at Fu Xiangbei, only to see the corners of Fu Xiangbei's mouth twitching. She suddenly found it funny, the feeling of a child in his early teens doting on a grandfather in his sixties.
"Fu Xiaowu, you're really good! You even got your sister-in-law to give you a compliment." Old Fu smiled happily and said, "Yuxiu, he gets along well with you. You should talk more in the future. This child is a bit of a taciturn person. He doesn't have anyone to talk to. I'm afraid he's been bored at home."
How to chat if you don’t have a common language?
Zhong Yuxiu understood this feeling very well, but what she wanted to say more was that Fu Xiangbei was a little arrogant.
“There will be many opportunities in the future.”
Mr. Fu laughed even more heartily and said to his old friend, "For Yuxiu's sake, I won't bother with you today."
"I won't argue with you."
The two old men obviously have a good relationship, but they dislike each other.
Mr. Fu looked at the three fat kids beside him with envy, "Old Yan, why don't you introduce them to them?"
"Fu Xiaowu, come here, let me introduce you. The one on my left is the eldest, Li Ji. The one next to me is Li Zhen, the third. The one on my right is Li Ming, the second." Yan Guofeng added, "I'll have to trouble you to teach them how to read and count in the future."
"Don't worry, Grandpa Yan. I like these three little fat kids very much and will teach them well."
"Then thank you, Grandpa Yan."
Fu Xiangbei said, "Grandpa Yan, you're too kind. You're welcome. They look very well behaved, so they should be easy to teach."
"They're easy to teach, very easy to teach. They have photographic memories. They can remember everything they've been taught after just one try. They have an excellent memory." Speaking of this, Mr. Yan Guofeng beamed with pride. "Also, they're very well-behaved. They don't make noise easily and always play by themselves. When you teach them, find ways to make them listen to you."
"Okay, Grandpa Yan."
At the first meeting, both Fu Xiangbei from the Fu family and the Yan family were very satisfied. They agreed that starting from tomorrow, Fu Xiangbei would come to teach them for two hours every evening after school, and they would have dinner at the Yan family. If Fu Xiangbei had any questions, he could also ask Zhong Yuxiu.
It's a mutual benefit! Everyone has to benefit.
After seeing off the Fu family, Old Man Yan Guofeng hugged his great-grandchildren and said happily, "Yuxiu, what do you think of Fu's Xiaowu?"
"Say?"
"Speak, there's nothing to be ashamed of. You can say whatever you want in your own home."
Zhong Yuxiu nodded. "Then I'll just briefly explain it."
"Well, just say whatever you want. We're just the three of us, and no one will say anything." It's just a family talk, and it's not something that will be shared with others, so people can speak directly whether it's good or bad.
"Then let me say a few words. Xiangbei is smart, but he's also conceited, arrogant, and opinionated. It's a shame he didn't go into the junior class. Kids like him are very talented, but they can easily go astray. No one in his family can persuade him."
No one can persuade or control him; it is equivalent to letting him run wild, and no one will know if he really goes astray.
Yan Guofeng frowned. "It's not that serious, is it? He looks like a well-behaved child."
"My point of view is this," Zhong Yuxiu said with a smile. "After talking to him for a while, I can't say I understand his character 100%, but I understand him at least 50 to 60 percent. Xiangbei isn't a bad kid, he's just a little arrogant. He has a natural admiration for the strong, and he won't take those who are weaker than him seriously."
"Is that so?" Yan Guofeng pondered, then suddenly slapped his thigh. "Oh no! He's here to teach our three children the Book of Rites. Will he teach them bad things?"
Zhong Yuxiu was not so pessimistic about this. "Fu Xiangbei is young, so it's not like he can't be helped."
"So... that old guy, Old Fu, wants you to teach his children?!" Yan Guofeng, who finally understood, gritted his teeth.
Zhong Yuxiu smiled slightly, confirming his thoughts. The old man of the Fu family must have discovered his grandson's shortcomings long ago and wanted to temper his temper, but this grandson was too smart and could not be tempered! He could only seek external help. It just so happened that his own father bumped into him. What a coincidence!
"Old thing!" Yan Guofeng stood up angrily, "No, we can't let his grandson come here."
"Grandpa, calm down. It's just a few words of advice. It doesn't take much effort, and we can find a highly intelligent tutor for free. The children will definitely feel a sense of empathy when it comes to their studies. Because of this, this child will definitely treat the three children very well and teach them wholeheartedly. We just need to get rid of his arrogance and conceit." Zhong Yuxiu smiled meaningfully. "If this child comes more often, he will definitely be close to us in the future."
Yan Guofeng sat back on the sofa, frowning and thinking deeply about the feasibility of her proposal; he was not optimistic about his granddaughter-in-law's idea. Fu family's Xiaowu was not a child anymore and could remember everything. Could he be raised in their Yan family?
"Grandpa, think about it. He's been spending a lot of time with our three little chubby kids, all of whom are highly intelligent. As the kids grow older and become more able to play with him, do you think he'll be closer to his cousins or to our San'er?" Zhong Yuxiu's eyes were deep, but her smile didn't fade. "Besides, I plan to take him in as my apprentice."
The apprentice raised his parents, but he was closer to them than his own parents.
"Are you really going to collect it?" Yan Guofeng asked uncertainly.
"Take it, this kid doesn't have any major problems except that he's a little arrogant and conceited. People with high IQs will have some shortcomings, because their high IQs make them look down on people with lower IQs, and it's also their advantage. However, this sense of superiority is not wrong, it's just that he hasn't grown up yet." If he can temper his temper and polish himself, he will be a promising talent.
Seeing the determination in her eyes, Yan Guofeng couldn't help but ask her to refuse, so he said, "Then it's up to you. I think this child is indeed okay."
He was full of praise before, but now his impression of Fu Jia Xiaowu has been greatly reduced, so naturally his tone has changed.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I won't let him lead the children astray. The old man of the Fu family wants to plot against you and me, and I'm sorry." She smiled happily. Old man Yan Guofeng was a little worried, but he also knew that he could not change the decision made by his eldest grandson's wife.
They are all young people with their own ideas, and they must be allowed to walk their own path; he did not say much, as he believed that even if his eldest grandson's wife would suffer a loss, it would not be too big.
