Chapter 446 Uncle Six, are you still going to change your son?
Well, in just a few words, Yinzhuo had arranged things clearly for his nephews, but none of them had any objection to what their sixth uncle had said. After all, having a proper job was something they could only dream of.
"Brother, what Uncle Ten said before was indeed true. Following Uncle Six will bring wealth and honor. Look, we've only been serving Uncle Six for a few days, and we've already got this job. Uncle Six, I heard you've been thinking about changing your son. Do you think I'm suitable?"
Good heavens, I've seen people take advantage of the situation to back down, but I've never seen someone switch fathers so blatantly. Hongyu's move really shocked Hongxi and the others. Yinzuo obviously didn't expect his nephew to say such a thing. He was stunned for a few seconds before laughing and scolding.
“Hongyu, you’re quite the character. I never knew you were so shameless. You want to be my son? Fine, if you can convince your father, I can take you to the Imperial Clan Court today to change your jade tablet.”
Upon hearing Yinzhuo's words, Hongyu immediately wilted. He had been trying to persuade his father, but he dared to say that if he dared to bring up this matter with his father, his father would simply whip him to death.
"Sixth Uncle, I don't want to be whipped to death by your elder brother, so let's just forget about it. Sigh, in the end, we two are not destined to be father and son in this life. But it doesn't matter, I am still your nephew. If you have anything good, just remember to think of your nephew."
Well, as they say, the thin-skinned get nothing, while the thick-skinned get everything. Even though Hongyu isn't Yinzhuo's biological son, when it comes to shamelessness, he's truly inherited from the same lineage.
Hongyu is thick-skinned, but are Hongxi and the others thin-skinned? The answer is obviously no. Look, as soon as Hongyu opened his mouth, the others immediately followed suit. Yinzhuo looked at the few guys bowing and scraping in front of him and wished he had a handy tool in front of him, otherwise he would definitely let them relive their complete childhood.
As the saying goes, good news doesn't travel far, but bad news travels fast. Even though Yinzhuo is no longer in the capital, his legend still exists there. The fact that Hongyu wanted to publicly replace his father couldn't be kept secret forever. Because of Hongqing, who was a big liar, the news eventually reached the ears of his father, Yinti, who was almost replaced.
"Father, please calm down and let me explain. I was just teasing Uncle Liu. Why did you take it so seriously? Besides, isn't an uncle also a father? Even if I really called Uncle Liu 'Father,' it shouldn't be a big deal, right? Father, you must be tired after chasing after me and beating me. Come, sit here. I'll go pour you and Uncle Liu some tea."
Even though Yinti was in good health and skilled in martial arts, he was still getting on in years. After the chase with Hongyu, he was indeed quite tired. Hearing this, he only glared at Hongyu in annoyance before following his lead and sitting down next to Yinzuo.
Having just watched his son's performance, Yinzhuo had clearly received his share of happiness for the day. Therefore, he didn't mind helping his nephew, who had almost caused his elder brother Daya's death.
“Brother, come, have a cup of tea to calm down. Getting angry is very harmful to your health. As an elder, there’s no need for us to stoop to the level of these juniors. If we want to deal with them, that’s easy. Since Hongyu is such a rebellious kid, why don’t we ask our father for a favor and have him send this little rascal to the military camp to train him?”
If someone else had said this, Yinqi might have just laughed it off. After all, such favors weren't so easy to obtain. Didn't he see how old his fifteenth and sixteenth brothers were, still hanging around in the Imperial Study? Even his thirteenth and fourteenth brothers didn't have any proper jobs and were busy patching things up. Even if such a favor were available, it wouldn't be his brat's turn.
However, it was a different story when these words came from Yinzhuo. As long as he was willing to speak, his father would most likely not refuse him. It is said that parents who love their children plan far ahead for them. Now, not to mention Hongyu, even Yinti wanted his own rascal to recognize Yinzhuo as his father.
"Sixth brother, I suddenly feel that the bond between me and that rascal has faded. What do you think? Why don't we just go along with him and let him be your son..."
What?! He's making Hongyu his son? Has his older brother been driven mad by that brat Hongyu? Yinzhuo got up and touched Yinti's forehead to check for a while before looking at Yinti with a puzzled expression. He didn't have a fever, so why was he talking nonsense?
Yinti could be said to have watched Yinzu grow up since he was a child. He wouldn't dare say he understood Yinzu 100%, but he was confident he knew him at least 30 or 40 percent. He could tell what Yinzu meant just by looking at the expression on his face. He raised his hand and brushed away Yinzu's hand that was on his forehead, and glared at him with annoyance.
"Alright, sit back down. I was just joking with you. Hongyu is my eldest son. Even if you wanted him, I wouldn't give him to you."
Yinti didn't want to give it, but others wanted to. No sooner had Yinti finished speaking than a slightly exaggerated shout came from behind them.
"I'll give it to him, I'll give it to him. Big brother, you're reluctant to part with him, but sixth brother, what do you think of my Hongqing? If you still think he's suitable, I can go with you to the Imperial Clan Court to change his jade tablet right now..."
Good heavens, just how much do they despise their son to be so eager to send him away? Yinzhuo turned his head to look at Yinzhi, who was walking towards him while shouting, and then looked at Yinreng, who was walking beside him and smiling at him. Suddenly, he felt a strange headache coming on.
"Third Brother, can you please stop getting involved in this mess? That brat Hongxu is already giving me enough headaches. If a few more come along, I'll age prematurely. I heard this whole thing was caused by your family's big scatterbrain accidentally letting it slip. Instead of trying to force him onto me, why don't you take this opportunity to go back and teach him a lesson? Look at the damage Hongyu did to Big Brother; those injuries won't heal for at least ten days to two weeks."
Although he knew that Yinzhi's words were meant to fool Yinzhi, Yinti still couldn't help but look up at Yinzhi, who was looking at Hongyu with a pained expression. No, do you think I, your older brother, am so ruthless? That's my own son. If he won't recover in ten days or half a month, isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?
Yinzhi wasn't stupid. Seeing how lively and energetic Hongyu was, he knew that Yinzuo's words were mostly just to scare him. Hearing this, he walked up to Hongyu, lifted his clothes to check his back, and only after confirming that he was alright did he turn around and walk towards Yinzuo and the others.
