Chapter 12: It's time for the senior brother to make a move
That night, Wang Ye was sitting in the study with his eyes closed, and the door was suddenly violently pushed open, and the door collided with each other and made a 'clang' sound, and then Wang Lin strode in.
"Dad, haven't slept yet?" Wang Lin walked up to Wang Ye and asked with a smile.
Wang Ye was startled by the sound of the two doors, and the little sleepiness that had already sprung up in his heart disappeared in an instant, and when he looked up and saw Wang Lin's unsparing appearance, he scolded angrily: "Bastard, have you forgotten all the rules I taught you?" Although the old man doesn't read much, he is also a child, and your brother has already been promoted, how can our Wang family have such an illiterate descendant as you, and even Bai Ding, who has never read a book, is better than you. You are a rebel, the old man will have to be angry with you sooner or later, cough cough ......"
Wang Lin was taught a lesson by his father, and his original arrogant demeanor suddenly turned into a stupid look, and when Wang Ye's coughing stopped, Wang Lin whispered: "Dad, next time I will definitely knock on the door first, I was so happy just now that I forgot it for a while." ”
Knowing his son Mo Ruo's father, Wang Ye saw Wang Lin admit his mistake, and the anger in his heart barely disappeared, but he didn't expect Wang Lin to remember what he had just said, and Wang Ye had no expectations for his young son's qualifications.
Snorted twice, Wang Ye picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then asked: "Say, I don't sleep in the middle of the night, what's the matter with coming to the old man?" Do you want to go to the martial arts hall to apprentice again? ”
"No, no, no." Wang Lin shook his head violently, and then put the somewhat deformed soap in his hand in front of Wang Ye, and said as if offering a treasure: "Dad, this soap is a good thing, look at what is different about me today?" ”
Wang Ye glanced at the soap on the table, then looked up at Wang Lin, and after a while, he suddenly let out a 'huh' and said with a smile: "Could it be that you didn't go outside to run crazy in the past two days, but stayed at home to study?" It looks much whiter than before. Hahaha, Wu'er has finally opened his mind, and the old man wants to write a letter to tell your brother, and make him happy. ”
Although Wang Lin was stunned, he was not stupid, after hearing Wang Ye's words, his face showed a rare look of embarrassment, he saw that Wang Ye seemed to really want to write a letter, and hurriedly stopped: "Dad, I took a bath with this soap today, and only after washing it did I find that I had turned white." My brother gave me two bars of soap, saying that one for me and one for you will use, so you can try it. ”
Wang Ye knew that his young son was stubborn, but he never lied, and when he heard this, he set his eyes on the piece of things on the table that was kneaded by Wang Lin and similar to 'Xiang'.
After observing for a while, Wang Ye suddenly frowned and asked, "Your senior brother?" When did you recognize a senior brother again, why didn't the old man know? ”
Wang Lin replied honestly: "I just recognized it in the past two days, my senior brother is my master's son, and he knows a lot of things, this soap is made by him, and I also helped when I made it." ”
"Your master?" Wang Ye frowned, half questioning and half affirming: "It's that Zhao Er in our winery, the one in Taocun?" ”
Wang Lin nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it's him." ”
"Hmph......" Wang Ye suddenly snorted angrily, he didn't look down on Zhao Xin, but he was disgusted with his young son, Wang Ye had always disagreed, but his old mother favored this young son, even if Wang Ye didn't like it, he was helpless, so he hated the house and Wu, and everyone who was related to Wang Lin's martial arts practice, Wang Ye was a little disdainful.
After grinding his teeth for a long time, Wang Ye picked up the soap and put it in front of the candle to observe, and after a while, he suddenly shouted outside: "Come on, bring a basin of water." ”
A servant in a green coat and a small hat brought a basin of water and put it on the floor of the study, and Wang Ye pointed to the soap on the table and instructed him, "You come and wash your hands with this." ”
The servant did not dare to disobey, and according to Wang Ye's instructions, under the guidance of Wang Lin, he washed his hands with soap, and the water in the basin had become extremely turbid, but the servant's hands were completely different from before washing his hands.
Wang Ye asked the servant to roll up his sleeves, and then raised his hands flat, while Wang Ye held the lamp and candle and watched carefully, only to see that the servant's arms and palms had been divided into two colors, and the skin of the palms washed with soap was white and smooth, not at all like a man's palms, and the skin of the arms above his wrists was greasy and rough, and the effect of the soap was obvious in comparison.
"Alright, you go down." Wang Ye dismissed the servant, and then sat back at his desk and muttered.
Wang Lin didn't see his father speak for a long time, and couldn't help yawning several times, he was simple-minded, but he felt that this soap was clean, and he didn't think as far-reaching as his father Wang Ye.
Wang Ye was awakened by Wang Lin's yawn, and when he looked up, he saw Wang Lin's eyes narrowed slightly, and his face was obviously tired, so he waved his hand and said, "Go and rest, remember to call Zhao Er and your senior brother tomorrow, the old man wants to meet their father and son." ”
————————————————
Early the next morning, Wang Lin happily called Zhao Yan and his son to the palace not far from the winery.
In the side hall, Wang Ye sat in the main seat, Zhao Yan and his son stood in the hall, Wang Lin stood beside his father, and from time to time he squeezed his eyebrows at Zhao Yan in the hall.
Wang Ye is of medium stature, slightly chubby, with two mustaches on his lips, and two slightly narrow eyes.
At this time, Wang Ye and Zhao Xin are the relationship between the owner and the employee, Wang Ye has a natural advantage in psychology, so he did not pretend to be polite, after looking at their father and son a few times, he picked up the soap on the table and asked, "Zhao Er, did you make this?" ”
Zhao Xin heard that his body bent slightly, and replied respectfully: "Dongjia, this soap is made by my Xiaolang, and the small one is just playing on the side." ”
"Oh?" Wang Ye didn't expect that this soap was really made by Zhao Yan, at this time he turned his eyes to Zhao Yan, and asked with an interested smile: "Brother Zhao is not very old, but he has found a unique way, and he can make this soap that is not inferior to the soap ball, I don't know if it is a family history, or what adventures?" ”
Zhao Yan knew that Wang Ye wanted to talk from his mouth, but he was mentally mature, he was not an ordinary half-grown child, and psychologically Wang Ye had no fetters with him, so he said straight when he heard the words: "Outside Wang Yuan, this soap formula was obtained by the kid by chance, so it can be regarded as an adventure." Wang Yuanwai said that this soap is not inferior to soap balls, but the kid does not dare to agree, this soap effect should be better than soap balls. The soap ball is mostly used by the rich and noble people to clean and bathe, but few people use it to pulp laundry, and the boy's soap can be used to clean clothes in addition to cleaning the body, whether it is a clean bath or washing clothes, the cleaning ability of the boy's soap is higher than the soap ball. If you don't believe it, you can take a soap ball now and try it with the boy's soap. ”
Wang Ye was robbed by Zhao Yan, and his heart was a little unhappy, but it didn't show it on his face, I saw him wave his hand and say: "No need, the old man has already let people try it this morning, this soap is indeed extraordinary, and the soap ball is far from it." ”
After pondering for a while, Wang Ye said to Zhao Xin again: "Zhao Er, you asked Lin'er to send the soap to the old man, I'm afraid there is something else, right?" ”
Zhao Xin was a little embarrassed, he was a hired worker of the Wang family at this time, and he was inevitably a little timid in the face of Wang Ye, but after Wang Lin left yesterday, Zhao Yan had already discussed with him, if Wang Ye was really interested in this soap, then Zhao Yan would be responsible for dealing with it, although Zhao Xin had some doubts at the time, he was finally persuaded by Zhao Yan.
"The owner, this soap was made by my Xiaolang, and the soap was also sent to the second son and the owner by him, so about this soap, the little one is really not very clear."
Hearing Zhao Xin say this, a look of surprise flashed on Wang Ye's face, and then he turned his head and looked at Zhao Yan seriously. At this time, Zhao Yan was thin and weak, with a vegetable face, not much different from an ordinary peasant boy in the countryside, and he did not look like a precocious person.
Zhao Yan saw that Zhao Xin was indeed acting according to what he said yesterday, and his heart was relieved, so he spoke: "Wang Yuanwai, the kid asked the second son to send the soap to the Yuanwai, it is indeed a little selfish. Although this soap is very effective, only a few people in the hall know about it, and the boy made this soap with the intention of selling it. If the boy and his father set up a stall to sell, some people may buy it, but if they want to make a name for themselves, they don't know what year and month it will take, and the kid is also afraid that there are few people who know the goods, after all, there are still a few people in the world who can discern pearls. The staff is well-informed, and the kid can't pat the horse, so the kid's selfishness is to do a business with the outside, if you can borrow the east wind outside the staff, so that the soap is sold all over the world, the outside of the staff does not say that the day is making money, at least you can accumulate more things to repair bridges and pave the road, and the outside is not either? ”
Zhao Yan talked eloquently in the side hall, and what he said was reasonable and well-organized, not to mention that Wang Ye was a little surprised, even Zhao Xin looked at Zhao Yan in surprise, and secretly said When did my Xiaolang become so eloquent.
Zhao Yan's voice fell, Wang Ye couldn't help but glance at Wang Lin, who was standing and napping beside him, and asked, "Little Brother Zhao, has he ever entered the school to study?" The old man sees that you are young, but your words are quoted from the classics and are clearly organized, I don't know who you are learning from? ”
Zhao Yan was stunned for a moment, and then realized that what he said seemed to be too elegant, but the words he said were like water spilled out, and it was impossible to take it back, but fortunately, Wang Ye had already taken it for granted, so Zhao Yan had to say sorry to Chen Dao in his heart, and then said as a matter of course: "The kid did study for a few years and studied under Chen Xiucai in Taocun Social Studies." ”
"Oh?" Wang Ye nodded, and then muttered in a low voice: "It turned out to be Chen Dao Chen Xiucai, the old man was still a fool of everyone, but I didn't expect him to be a good student, but he was quite accomplished as a gentleman, I can't say that the old man will visit in a few days, if he really has real talent and learning, he will send Lin'er to stay under his door for a few years." If Lin'er can devote himself to learning from now on, the old man Jiuquan can be regarded as worthy of his dead mother. ”
