Chapter 27: Sickness can be cured
"How many hours are there in a day?"
"Master Wang... even a three-year-old child on the street can probably answer this. There are twelve hours in a day."
After the madam finished speaking, Wang Siqi raised his eyebrows and continued: "Calculate the days, have there been three days until now..."
The madam was stunned immediately.
Three days...thirty-six hours.
I did the math on my fingers and found that it was indeed within three days.
The old madam who secretly said something bad quickly explained: "Master Wang, although the time has not come yet, the day has come... Even if it is not possible, today you have to come up with water that is better than our Zanghua Pavilion Jiuxianlu."
Wine will do, otherwise the twenty thousand taels of silver today may really be unavoidable."
"After all... this is also related to the reputation of our Hidden Flower Pavilion."
After saying that, although the old bustard looked a little evasive, she was not an ordinary woman after all. Wang Siqi could only smile and said: "Then let me ask you first, why is Jiuxianlu famous?"
“It’s naturally mellow and rich.”
Wang Siqi nodded.
"Wu De... come and bring over the two jars of water and wine that this young master just sent over."
His young master came back, and Wu De ran out of the house early. After all, with the young master here, even the housekeeper couldn't do anything to him.
Wu De said repeatedly: "Okay, young master!"
We brought the two jars of water and wine, but the wine seals on top were not yet opened.
The old butler's eyes were firmly fixed on the wine brought by Wu De. Suddenly, an idea came to the old butler's mind, and he remembered where he had seen such wine.
So he quickly said: "Wu De! You have to hold on tight. If you fall! Even if you lose your life, it won't be enough to compensate you. I'll inform my uncle first!"
After finishing speaking, the old housekeeper quickly felt the wind on his feet.
He rushed into the mansion and went to find Wang Siqi's father.
Apparently the old butler recognized the extraordinary origin of the two jars of wine.
However, the old bustard still had a look of disdain. After all, Zanghua Pavilion's Jiuxianlu has been brewed for a long time. It was a way for the old bustard to find a way to brew it specially after all his efforts. It is only available to the Canghua Pavilion family in the capital.
The high price means that it is not affordable for ordinary people.
Natural wine is good and has a great reputation.
When the old bustard saw the wine coming, he immediately said with a smile: "Master Wang, don't blame me for being blunt. If this wine is not as good as Jiuxian Dew, then I really have to take away 20,000 taels of silver today."
"Of course, if the uncle's house has no money, then I will consider myself unlucky, but in the future, merchants coming and going from Zanghua Pavilion will probably have to understand the reputation of Qingyuan uncle's house."
Each of his left and right hands holds a jar of wine.
But this did not stop Wu De from stepping forward to help him. After all, he was his young master. No one could let someone like this madam gossip. He immediately cursed angrily: "What kind of thing are you, this old madam? What does Zanghua Pavilion mean?"
The place, Qingyuan Uncle Mansion, is something you can evaluate at will?"
"Even if my young master doesn't give me any money, you still have to suffer."
"Where do you come from with all these words? You have to open your eyes and see clearly later. Are the two jars of wine that the young master has today better than your bullshit wine fairy dew?"
Having said that, he put the wine on the ground and looked back at his young master flatteringly: "Master, are you opening it now?"
Wang Siqi nodded.
"Okay, what are you doing with this old bustard Mo Ji? It's just a waste of time."
"You have to watch out!"
Wang Siqi was about to open the seal of one of the jars of wine when he heard a male voice shouting from the door of the mansion: "Slow! Slow! Don't open it yet, don't open it yet!"
Wang You hurriedly stepped forward.
He stopped Wang Siqi and said loudly: "Good son! Tell dad where this wine comes from and who gave it to you."
"This is the nectar and jade dew given by the emperor. It is a royal thing."
"Even in our home, we don't have anything like this. Even my father only tasted it when he won a battle and drank celebratory wine in the palace."
"If you hadn't told the butler about what the wine jar in the palace looked like after drinking it, you must have opened this wine. You can't drink it casually!"
After finishing speaking, Wang You did not forget to carefully protect the two jars of wine behind him.
When the madam on the side saw Wang You, he was so frightened that he could not speak and could only stand aside honestly.
This is the uncle of today's Ming Dynasty.
On weekdays, there are no people like her who can meet... Of course, even if there are one or two from time to time, or there is a possibility that Wang You has stayed in the Hidden Flower Pavilion a few times,
But for the sake of my own life and family business, I can only say that I have never seen it.
Wang Siqi looked at his father's nervous look and introduced with a smile: "To be honest, this wine was given to me by His Highness the Crown Prince. Since it is for me, why can't you open it and drink it?"
"hiss..."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone present was stunned.
Given by His Highness the Crown Prince!?
Wang You said in disbelief: "This wine was really given to you by His Highness the Crown Prince. You did not get it from any prince's house. This cannot be a lie!"
At this moment, Wang You still didn't believe it. His prodigal son had not been heard from since he was tricked by His Highness the Crown Prince that day. Now he finally heard from the housekeeper that he had returned to the door of his house.
Why did he come back with two jars of wine given by the emperor?
He even said it was given by the prince...
Wu De on the side just stepped forward and explained to Wang You: "Uncle, the young master is extraordinary now. Not only is he highly appreciated by the Crown Prince, but more importantly, the Crown Prince also allows the young master to serve as an official.
Now it is under the supervision of the Baoyuan Bureau of the Ministry of Industry.”
"Supervisor of Baoyuan Bureau? Isn't Baoyuan Bureau the place where coins are minted for the imperial court?"
"what are you going to do?"
Wang You didn't quite understand, after all, his son could have any real talents.
How many teachers have been teased and entertained by their own sons since childhood? No matter when I was in Peking or now in Beijing, there is not a day when I study seriously.
How could he still be appreciated by His Highness the Crown Prince in such a blink of an eye?
Inside!
There must be something fishy!
Wang Siqi explained, "Maybe this is my young master's talent. Finally, someone can understand it. Before, it was just my young master's talent."
"Even in our family, there is no one who can understand!"
"But the Baoyuan Bureau is not a good place. A mere supervisor of the Baoyuan Bureau is not much of an official. Maybe one day your son will be treated as a prince by you."
"That's called majesty!"
Looking at his son, the stunned Wang You couldn't believe it. He stumbled and looked at the old housekeeper and said, "Quickly! Call back that old man from the past few days!"
