What to do? Han Shuxian didn't have an idea for a while, he didn't know what to do, and even if he didn't lay paper on the table, and put it directly on the table, the wax would stick to the table, or he would just put it on his hand and wait for the wax to solidify.

"Auntie, is there still a tray at home?" Mo Ziyun pulled Han Qiulu back to the table while Han Shuxian and Yu Silian were talking.

Standing on tiptoe and tilting his head, he struggled to look at the tray of wax and paper on the table.

It's very helpless about my little short legs, and I really want to grow up quickly.

Although Yu Silian didn't know what the use of her asking the tray was, she must have her intentions when she asked, and replied, "Yes, there is another one." "Trays, teapots, and cups are all made of porcelain, which are easy to break, so when I buy them, I have an extra set to keep at home.

What does the Han family have, sometimes Mo Ziyun knows better than Han Chunlin's own son, and after Yu Silian answered, she said: "Auntie also brought another tray, filled it with some cold water, and put the paper soaked in wax into the tray with water in a while, and the wax will solidify when it is cold." Thinking about it for a while, he had to take out the wax paper, and then said: "Take another pair of chopsticks, and I can pick up the wax paper for a while." ”

This time, not only Han Shuxian rose to a sense of powerlessness, but also sighed to himself, after Mo Ziyun finished speaking, Yu Silian also frowned and sighed lightly: "Why are you so smart?" But there was a sigh in the front, but the conversation changed in the back, and Han Shuxian joked, "You are so smart, how will your uncle teach you in the future?" ”

Han Shuxian was already full of powerlessness, and after being teased by his wife this time, he was really dumb and couldn't say what he was suffering from. At the same time, I was more determined to let Wan Wan go to the academy, not only to be hit, but also to let my colleagues and other self-righteous students in the academy also see what is really smart.

But when they think about it, how can they see all the cleverness of Wanyun! Forget it, let's blow it, but they have gained knowledge, they never know how smart a four-year-old baby can be!

After comforting himself, Han Shuxian was forced to look away, and he also had a mental response to his wife's jokes, and said back with a smile: "You don't understand, we are teaching and learning from each other!" As he spoke, he took chopsticks and picked up the soaked wax paper, but only one corner was clamped, and then he pinched one corner of the wax paper with his hand, and then another corner, and then lifted it and waited for the excess wax to drip before putting it into a tray with cold water.

The wax paper solidifies when it encounters water, but after a breath, the wax paper becomes hard and floats on the water. Remove the wax paper and place it on the paper on the table to absorb the water from the wax paper, and wait for one side of the paper to dry.

Although it is autumn, the early autumn days still carry some summer residual heat, and it will be half dry in a while.

Mo Ziyun looked at the wax paper, the traditional wax paper engraving, which needs to be laid on the steel plate to write, but now there is no steel plate, and she didn't say anything about the steel plate at the beginning, the test is slowly summarized, and it is still summarized in failure.

Engraving is not something that can be engraved at once, Mo Ziyun is waiting for Han Shuxian to write on the table when the wax paper is not good at writing, or the wax paper is uneven when writing because the desktop is not smooth enough, etc., at that time, I thought about it and thought that it would be easier to write in a place where it was flatter or a harder place on the table.

Because the wax paper needs to be pierced when writing, a different pen is required. This is simple, Han Shuxian told Yu Silian last night that he wanted to try to make wax paper and engrave words with wax paper today, Yu Silian tied the embroidery needle to a chopstick early today and made a special pen.

After the wax paper was all dry, Han Shuxian carefully moved the wax paper to the top with white paper on the other side of the table, and then picked up a special pen and prepared to start writing.

Han Shuxian, who was holding the pen, couldn't hide his excitement, and he didn't know how to put down the pen for a while, and said to Mo Ziyun: "Yunyun, you come to endorse, and I will write." ”

Mo Aster was also excited, wax paper printing, now there is wax paper! It's a big step towards success. If it weren't for the fact that she had already seen it, her excitement would not be less than that of Han Shuxian and Yu Silian, and Mo Ziyun, who was relatively calm, couldn't hide her smile, and said with a smile: "Okay." Then he shook his head and memorized the "Analects", "Zi said: 'When you learn it, don't you also say it?' Have friends come from afar, are you happy? People don't know and are not ashamed, aren't they also gentlemen? ……’”

Mo Ziyun is fluent in his back, but Han Shuxian writes very slowly, even if he writes carefully, there is still a problem, the stronger table is scratched by the tip of the needle under his hand, not to mention, even the wax paper also has cracks, once the crack appears, it will inevitably affect the writing of the next word, Mo Ziyun, who climbed on the bench on the side, naturally also saw the crack, "Uncle, is the wax paper too brittle?" ”

Han Shuxian smiled: "It's too hard!" ”

Mo Ziyun said 'oh' and said, "Then uncle is smaller." After speaking, he looked at Han Shuxian who was writing.

Han Shuxian turned his head to look at Mo Ziyun, and his eyes were doting, "Okay, uncle write a little harder." ”

When Han Shuxian was writing, he thought that the words written by this needle were much smaller than those of a brush, and they were much faster when writing. If it is successful, a lot of paper can be saved when the book is written, and the engraving is very fast, even if there is a mistake in writing, even if it is written again, it will not be delayed for long.

After writing half a page, Han Shuxian didn't continue to write, thinking that it would not work for a while, and there was still half a page to use, and said: "Don't write for the time being, try it first!" ”

"Okay, I'll use the next half next time." Mo Ziyun answered.

Han Shuxian will draw a neat line on the wax paper on the tip of the needle in his hand, then the wax paper is divided into two, and he picks up the engraved wax paper, "Then let's try printing." He moved to the side, took the paper on the table, put two more pages on the table, and then put the wax paper on it after the padding, and said excitedly: "Start printing." ”

After speaking, he picked up the brush on the table, sucked the ink in the inkstone pool and squeezed out some of the ink, in the end, he was inexperienced, the brush went down and found the problem, the ink on the brush was still too much, and the ink beads left on the wax paper instantly, because of the carving hollow, the ink also penetrated into the paper under the wax paper, and the ink was smeared under the wax paper.

"There's too much ink." Han Shuxian said.

Mo Ziyun said: "Well, uncle squeeze out some more ink." Then he added, "Otherwise, we will spread a layer of paper on the wax paper, so that the ink will not be confused everywhere on the wax paper when we brush, and it will not seep too much ink down when it penetrates underneath." "I plan to change the paper covered with wax paper to spun yarn after the printing is out and the brushing technique is improved.

Han Shuxian felt that he was a worker today, "Okay, put a piece of paper on it." ”

Changed the paper under the wax paper, cleaned up the ink on the wax paper, changed the paper on the pad again, and laid a layer of paper on the wax paper, plus Han Shuxian pressed out the ink on the brush a lot, this time it can be seen from the paper spread on the surface, and there is no ink due to too much ink.

After the palm-sized piece of paper was painted black by Han Shuxian, he uncovered the wax paper from a corner, and then the wax paper was uncovered after the paper on it was revealed, and the wax paper was carefully uncovered and placed aside.

After the wax paper is uncovered, the paper below is printed, but the effect is not good, some words because of too much ink when brushing, the handwriting is blurry and not clear, and even some places have a black phenomenon, of course, there are also because the wax paper is not engraved and not printed, but there are also a few words to see clearly, there are also the words on the paper that should be printed are not very clear, but the paper on the table leads to clear words.

Mo Ziyun pointed to a few clear words and said, "Uncle, let's see what is the difference between these clearer words on the wax paper and other words!" ”

Han Sixian nodded, dipped the ink left on the wax paper with white paper, picked up the wax paper and looked at the candlelight, through the candlelight, deliberately looked at the words that were better printed, and saw that the wax paper was scratched by the tip of the needle and there was very little light beam, and then looked at other words, relatively speaking, the beam passed through more. The absence of a beam, or a small number of beams, only means that the paper has not been pierced by the needle or is not strong, and the tip of the needle has only scratched a small scratch on the wax paper, and the ink brushed down is just right.

Thinking back to the time when I first engraved, I was afraid that the wax paper could not be carved through, so the strength of my hand was greater at the beginning, and after writing a few words, the strength was mastered a little, and the middle gradually became lighter, but then I was worried that it would not be carved through if it was light, so I increased it a little more.

As for how heavy it was, not to mention that the paper on the table was carved, even the table was scratched, and the few words in the middle were a little lighter, as he feared, the paper of the wax paper was not carved, and the words were not printed.

Fortunately, there are still a few words that are not light or heavy, and the ink is just right when I touch the ink.

Mo Ziyun looked at the good words printed, and sure enough, because the strength of the engraving accounted for a large reason, the paper was carved and the ink leaked too much, resulting in a black mess of printed words, of course, too much ink brush is also a reason. In her opinion, the good words are because the strength is appropriate when carving, although it is also carved through the wax paper, but it is like a small wound, and the paper fibers in the middle can still touch together, so when the ink penetrates downward, the excess ink is absorbed by the paper, so that the ink that is printed down is just right. Although this principle was known for a long time, Mo Ziyun still had to pretend to find out, and exclaimed in surprise: "I know!" ”

Han Shuxian looked at Mo Ziyun with a heartbeat, and finally came up with the reason, so he heard Mo Ziyun continue: "Because the paper of the wax paper was not scratched, just like the paper covering it, it blocked some excess ink, so that the ink that penetrated was just right, so the clear words were printed." ”

Han Shuxian's heart was congested, but he nodded with a smile: "That's the case, so this paper can't be carved yet." ”

But the problem comes again, the paper is not broken, and the wax on the bottom will not be broken, just like the words that are not introduced, the strength of the hand is too light, so the wax on the bottom is not engraved, and the ink is not penetrated.

The wax on both sides of the upper and lower sides must be carved through, and the paper wrapped in wax in the middle should not be scratched!

Han Shuxian can figure out the crux of the problem, but he can't come up with a solution!
