After wearing the book, I became the mother of three villains

Chapter 116 You will be on the road in a few days

"Okay," Yao Shu said with a smile on his face, "Aniang, go to the kitchen to see what we have for lunch... Dabao takes care of my younger brother, is it okay?"

Ah Zhi nodded involuntarily, his eyes followed his mother's back, walked to the door, and only looked back when Yao Shu was no longer in sight.

"Ah! Brother Yu! You know it!"

The younger sister's excited screams came, followed by Yu Zhi's clear voice. They were having fun at the corner of the kang, completely unaware of what was going on here.

Ah Zhi buried his head on his younger brother's shoulder, sniffing the baby's sweet smell of milk, and muttered in a very soft voice: "Mother, really, I'm an older child, how can I kiss me so easily?" What about the face? Sambo, don’t you think so?”

The baby giggled, not knowing if he understood, and his soft nails slid across his brother's face, just covering the mother's kiss just now.

Yu Zhi played with the little girl for a while, and when he looked up, Yao Shu was no longer there, only Ah Zhi was sitting on the kang with his younger brother, thinking.

"Da Bao, where's your mother?"

The young man's clear voice woke Ah Zhi up. He turned around and replied, "Ah Niang went to the kitchen to cook."

"Eh..." Yu Zhi hesitated for a moment.

Good upbringing prevents him from leaving without saying goodbye to his master, but now that Lin Rong is not at home, he should avoid suspicion after all, and it is not good to stay with Yao Shu for a long time.

Yu Zhi had no choice but to discuss with Ah Zhi: "Dabao, tell your mother later——Uncle Yu still has something to do today, so I'll visit you another day."

When Ah Si heard that the handsome uncle who was playing with him said he was leaving, he was unhappy: "Brother Yu!"

Yu Zhi coaxed her nicely: "Er Bao, brother will play with you again some day, okay?"

Children are sometimes the most serious. She doesn't know that the adults' "someday" is just an excuse, so she has to ask clearly.

Ah Si raised his head, looking at Yu Zhi with big watery eyes: "When is the next day? Tomorrow?"

Seeing her cute expression, the young man couldn't bear to let the little girl down, so he smiled and said: "When your father rests, brother will come to play with you."

Ah Si blinked his eyes, and sensiblely did not make excessive demands, but showed a reluctant look in his eyes.

Ah Zhi somewhat understood Yu Zhi's concerns.

They have lived in Yaojia Village for so long, and Ah Zhi can remember many things, so he naturally knows a lot of gossip about his family.

At that time Lin Rong hadn't come back yet, but whenever young people came to see Yao Shu, there would always be someone with good things to gossip about.

So Yu Zhi wanted to leave, and Ah Zhi also agreed.

"Erbao, if you like playing with Uncle Yu, we can go to him," Ah Zhi actively advised his sister, "Uncle Yu lives in Uncle Yu's house, not far away."

As expected, the little girl's eyes lit up, and she eagerly asked, "Then can I go to Brother Yu tomorrow?"

Yu Zhi smiled and promised her, "Of course it's possible."

He chatted a few more gossips with the two children, and happened to ask about A Zhi's academic progress. The little boy answered honestly, "I have finished reading three of the Four Books, and now I am still missing Mencius."

Yu Zhi's eyes lit up: "Dabao is reading the Four Books and Five Classics? You are still young, and you have already read three of the Four Books, and you have learned a lot."

As he said that, he couldn't help asking: "Can I ask Uncle Yu to write a question to test you?"

Ah Zhi has never been stage frightened by school exams. Instead, he sat upright and said seriously, "Say it."

Yu Zhi thought about it for a while, and asked him a question that wasn't too difficult: "Let's explain the meaning of a sentence—I heard that Daoxi died in the morning, what does it mean?"

Books in ancient times did not contain punctuation. In order not to affect Ah Zhi's understanding, Yu Zhi didn't even punctuate a sentence, but only read a few words together to see if he understood.

Unexpectedly, the little boy smiled, his facial features resembled that of Lin Roe, and for a moment he seemed to be a miniature version of "Brother Lin" smiling at Yu Zhi.

"Uncle Yu, your school exam is too easy," Azhi said confidently, "This sentence should be read as 'If you hear the Tao in the morning, you can die in the evening', it comes from "The Analects of Confucius Liren". It was Confucius who taught his disciples that if you understand the truth in the morning, even if you die at night, it is worth it.”

Yu Zhi smiled and nodded, without refuting.

If we talk about the interpretation of "The Analects of Confucius", there have been countless versions over the past century, and the most famous words of Confucius have also been given various names by the world, and there are different opinions.

On the contrary, the most simple and honest explanation that a child like Ah Zhi understands can be called back to basics.

Yu Zhi smiled and said, "Since you have learned "The Analects" well, I'll ask you something else. In "Great Learning", people don't know..."

He elongated his tone and signaled Ah Zhi to continue.

The little boy nodded, and continued: "People don't know the evil of their sons, and they don't know the size of their seedlings."

Yu Zhi nodded: "There is nothing wrong with your punctuation, and I think you really understand what this sentence means?"

A Zhi opened his mouth without hesitation: "People don't know the disadvantages of their own children, and they can't see the abundance of their own crops and seedlings."

Yu Zhi smiled and said: "It literally means this, but Dabao has thought about it, why is this? Why can't my child see his faults, and my crops don't seem so luxuriant from time to time?"

For a child over seven years old, this question is obviously beyond his comprehension.

But Ah Zhi is precocious, and he can understand many things after seeing them once.

It is impossible for Yao Feng to tell him every sentence of the contents of the Four Books, and he understood many of them by himself.

The little boy thought for a while, and then said: "Aniang always thinks that my younger siblings and I are the most obedient and cutest children in the world. This reason is easy to understand—Aniang is full of love for us. all good."

Yu Zhi nodded, confirming his understanding of the first half of the sentence.

Ah Zhi didn't quite understand the latter, but he tried to explain: "As for why farmers always feel that their crops are not good enough... good and bad are all compared, just like my sister usually eats and always feels that the crops in my hands are not good enough. Tastes better, obviously they are all the same..."

Asi was inexplicably mentioned by his brother, and asked "Huh?" in doubt.

The boy hesitated, not sure if his analogy was right.

Yu Zhi looked at Ah Zhi encouragingly, beckoning him to continue talking.

"Obviously they are all the same, but feel that other people's homes are better, which is a kind of dissatisfied psychology."

Yu Zhi really believed that Ah Zhi had learned the first three of the four books.

He nodded with a smile and said: "If this sentence is put into the "University" article to understand, it will be much simpler."

Ah Zhi thought for a while, and his eyes lit up: "Yes! After this sentence, 'If you don't cultivate your body, you can't have a good family', it is actually teaching people how to improve their self-cultivation."

Seeing that Ah Zhi's ability to understand is very strong, Yu Zhi asked him: "You explained it very well, did you read it yourself?"

Ah Zhi gave a "hmm" and added: "Uncle also taught me."

Yu Zhi's heart skipped a beat——

He now lives in the house of Yao Shu's second brother, and there are indeed many books in the study room. When he flipped through them, he found that they were carefully annotated. It seems that the owner is also a person who loves to read.

"The person who taught you is the second uncle Yao Chao?"

Ah Zhi shook his head, grinning and said, "Where does the second uncle have time? It was the first uncle who taught us to read. Besides, the first uncle is gentle and patient. He is a very good teacher."

Yu Zhi let out a "huh", feeling a little disappointed——

After hearing Yao Shu's evaluation and description of Yao Chao, he also lives in his house, and has always wanted to find a chance to meet him, or to know more about this brother Yao.

He looked slightly puzzled, and asked one more question: "Which one is better at learning, your eldest uncle or your second uncle?"

This stumped Ah Zhi.

In the past, Yao Feng had always taught them how to read, and Yao Chao would occasionally ask the children about their studies when they returned home, but if you want to compare the two uncles...

"I don't know," Ah Zhi thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Both uncles are well educated."

Yu Zhi talked to Ah Zhi for a long time, seeing that his conversation was clear and polite, he liked him very much in his heart.

His heart moved, and he said what he wanted to say: "Azhi, if you are allowed to go out to study at a young age, will your parents agree..."

Before he finished speaking, he heard footsteps coming from the door, just as Yao Shu walked in.

Seeing the two, one big and one small, talking about something seriously, and Asi lying next to her younger brother, she couldn't help but wondered, "Why did you switch sides? Erbao doesn't play rope anymore?"

Seeing Yao Shu, Yu Zhi sat up straight all of a sudden, even his expression became a little reserved.

Ah Zhi said: "Uncle Yu said just now that he wants to leave..."

Yao Shu glanced at Yu Zhi with doubts in his eyes: "Let's go? Aren't you eating at home at noon?"

Yu Zhi's face flushed slightly: "No, no, I'll just go back and buy two steamed buns to eat..."

Young people take self-restraint and return to courtesy as their criterion, and they are never willing to go a little bit beyond the rules.

Lin Rong is not at home today, just being in the same room with Yao Shu can make his heart tense all the time.
