Chapter 89 Wang Wenbo

"Mr. Wang, your words are really scary."

Ji Yuanhai smiled and said, "What do you want to settle with me?"

Elder Wang pointed to Song Meilanhua: "The branches and leaves are long and slender. If they increase by one point, they will be too fat, and if they decrease by one point, they will be too thin. They are slim and graceful. Xiao Ji, this is all thanks to you."

"You have already paid me, Mr. Wang." Ji Yuanhai reminded.

"Yes, I paid you for three months." Elder Wang said, "But now the three months have come, and you have given me a perfect baby tree."

"Next, we need to have an explanation for how we settle the accounts."

Ji Yuanhai pondered for a while: "You mean, if I visit your flowers and plants every once in a while, it still counts as my labor?"

"Otherwise? Are you helping me in vain?" Elder Wang asked with staring eyes.

"Let's talk about our friendship again..." Ji Yuanhai said.

Wang Lao said: "Okay, if you only talk about friendship and don't talk about remuneration, then come and visit me during the Chinese New Year."

"I'll spend my own money and find a gardener and gardener to take care of the flowers and plants for me, okay?"

Ji Yuanhai smiled: "I understand what you mean, Mr. Wang."

"I'll come to see you again during the Chinese New Year."

"Anyway, you can grow flowers and plants yourself, so I won't bother you normally."

This time going down the donkey, Wang Lao was completely unexpected: "Xiao Ji, you!"

"What I mean is, Xiao Ji, you can't keep running in vain like this. I have to pay you, not to drive you away or prevent you from coming!"

"But your current flowers and plants are indeed no problem, and you can grow flowers and plants yourself, how can I collect your money again?" Ji Yuanhai said, "In the future, we will continue to communicate, and the friendship will continue."

"I have to study and prepare for the college entrance examination myself, and the time is tight, so I won't come here so frequently in the future."

Elder Wang was taken aback for a moment, knowing that it was impossible for him to give him a new reward, instead, he noticed that the flowers and plants did not need to be taken care of, and the number of visits was reduced.

Xiaoyun has already said that this kid will definitely be able to go to university after taking the college entrance examination. This is just to prevaricate me.

Elder Wang became a little sullen.

Grandma Yuan heard the reason and gave Ji Yuanhai a few words of advice. Ji Yuanhai smiled and asked her to look at the flowers and plants that were growing well, saying that she was indeed no longer needed here.

Grandma Yuan wanted to say something more, but she suddenly raised her eyes and said happily, "Old man, Wenbo is here!"

Elder Wang subconsciously stood up and looked out. Through the window, he saw a middle-aged man with a serious face coming into the courtyard, and sat down with a cold snort.

"Come when he comes, why don't you notify me when he comes?"

"Here, he comes whenever he wants, and leaves whenever he wants!"

Ji Yuanhai stood up quickly.

The majestic middle-aged man walked in from the courtyard door, and when he reached the door of the house, his expression softened when he saw Grandma Yuan: "Mom."

"Hey! Come in quickly! Have you eaten? I'll make you something you like to eat?"

Grandma Yuan said happily.

"Don't bother you, Mom, I've already eaten." After the middle-aged man finished speaking, he looked at Elder Wang, and his back straightened involuntarily, "Dad."

"Oh? Isn't this the Deputy Wang of the Qingshan County Organization Department? Why do you have time to visit me, a little old man?"

"Dad...you—" Wang Wenbo suddenly looked embarrassed.

"I'm like this?" Elder Wang seldom gets angry, but at the moment he is sullen, not angry at all.

"Aren't you making fun of me when you say that?" Wang Wenbo said awkwardly.

"Do you still know that you are being laughed at?" Mr. Wang pointed at him, "Xiaoyun changed her bicycle, and you have been holding back your anger with her for a whole year! Are you so majestic? Are you acting arrogant with your children at home?"

"You don't like my flowers and plants, you don't like them, come and come, they are all smashed for me, and my pension is also taken away, so as not to delay the good reputation of your deputy king!"

"We don't know why you are so majestic! My pension and your mother's normal use have delayed you, and the child's change of bicycle has also delayed you!"

"I think you are going straight up from the sky, that's amazing! What kind of high-ranking official are you now?"

This call was filled with anger, which became louder and louder the more he spoke.

Mr. Wang stood up involuntarily as he spoke and pointed at Wang Wenbo.

Wang Wenbo lowered his head and said nothing.

After finishing speaking, Mr. Wang sat down again, gasping for breath.

"Dad, calm down..." Wang Wenbo said.

"I calm down, can I calm down?" Wang Lao yelled angrily, "It's been more than ten years, you are self-righteous, and you don't listen to what I say, and you think you are so successful after doing some things!"

"Now, your road is cut off, and you are starting to cherish your reputation!"

"It's too late, do you know, it's already too late!"

Wang Wenbo lowered his head and fell silent again.

Mr. Wang reprimanded him for not pleasing to the eye, and went back into the house angrily.

Grandma Yuan sighed at the side: "Tell me about you two, as soon as you meet, it's like a mouse meeting a cat. There will never be a time when you are at peace."

"How can it be good if it goes on like this?"

"I'm going to persuade the old man, don't leave. Stay here for lunch today."

Wang Wenbo was obviously unhappy at being reprimanded: "Mom, I won't stay any longer, so as not to piss Dad off."

"There are other things waiting for me, so I'll leave first."

"You child—" Grandma Yuan was very disappointed, she wanted to say something but didn't.

Wang Wenbo said that he was about to leave. At this moment, Mr. Wang walked out quickly: "Let's go. Don't come back after you leave!"

Wang Wenbo couldn't move his feet on the spot: "Dad, can you...don't be angry?"

The more Ji Yuanhai looked at it, the more he couldn't watch it. If he could leave earlier, he wouldn't have to look at this kind of housework.

It's a pity I can't go now.

Taking a closer look, Ji Yuanhai took a step forward and held Mr. Wang's hand: "Old Wang, don't be angry!"

"This hand is trembling, why bother? Let's talk smoothly first."

After hearing this, Grandma Yuan and Wang Wenbo noticed that Mr. Wang had become so angry, and hurried forward.

Wang Wenbo held Mr. Wang's other arm, helped him to sit down with Ji Yuanhai, and said with red eyes while slowly patting his back, "Dad, I know I was wrong, but you can't put yourself down because of me." So angry."

"If you really can't do it, you can just hit me or scold me a few times."

"I get angry just thinking about it." Mr. Wang gasped and said, "I scolded you a few words. I just scolded you a few words. Why did you run away? Is it still useful for me to scold you if you run away?"

Wang Wenbo was helpless: "Okay, okay, you can scold now, I won't run away, I will listen."

"You are such a stubborn old man!" Grandma Yuan scolded Mr. Wang from the side, "You almost died because of a pot of flowers and grass. If it weren't for Xiao Ji, you would be doomed!"

"It's the same with your son now, what's the problem for the two of you!"

Wang Wenbo admitted his mistakes and admitted scolding, and his wife also said that Mr. Wang's mood has stabilized a lot, but he stopped scolding.

Because of his emotional stability, he gradually realized that when he was agitated just now, he said something that should not be said in front of Ji Yuanhai, an outsider.

Mr. Wang smiled at Ji Yuanhai: "Xiao Ji, I made you laugh."

Ji Yuanhai said: "What's so ridiculous?"

"Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite, and my family is also not harmonious. It is even more difficult to say than this. Mr. Wang, you don't have to worry about it. Some things that should pass will always pass."

Elder Wang smiled: "Xiao Ji, you are quite transparent."

He introduced to Wang Wenbo and Ji Yuanhai, "This is Xiao Ji, he saved my Song Mei."

"This is my incompetent son named Wang Wenbo. He likes to play tricks. You can call him Brother Wang."

Ji Yuanhai hesitated for a moment.

Wang Wenbo noticed this small detail of him, and said in his heart that he was quite sensible and knew not to yell.

But since he was in front of the old man, of course he was coaxing him to his heart's content, and said with a smile: "Xiao Ji, my dad has already said so, so you can call me Brother Wang."

Ji Yuanhai nodded immediately: "Hey, Brother Wang, hello."

"I'm a member of the production team of the Guashan Commune, and it was a coincidence that I came to the city. I happened to meet Wang Lao's Song Mei and something happened."

"To be honest, Mr. Wang is so kind to me."

"Xiao Ji, if you say that again, I will get angry." Wang Lao said, "We are friends who have forgotten the years, friends in the flowers and plants."

Ji Yuanhai added: "You are definitely still my good teacher and helpful friend. I have been taught by you more than once."

Wang Lao suddenly grinned: "Yes, yes, that's it, hahaha..."

Wang Wenbo looked at this scene and thought to himself.

To me, you are so angry; to this little Ji who can grow flowers, you just smile happily, who is your son?
But then Wang Wenbo also noticed that Ji Yuanhai was really not an ordinary rural commune member or ordinary flower grower.

He has a high level of education, and he can keep up with the conversation between himself and his father. Sometimes he can even say idioms, and they are all just right, which is a bit witty.

This person...could it be arranged by someone?

Don't say he is a member of the rural commune, if you say he graduated from university, I will believe it.

Wang Wenbo calmly asked about Ji Yuanhai's situation. He learned that he had a primary school education, was self-taught, and was preparing for the college entrance examination next year. He also met Wang Zhuyun and borrowed books. He was a little suspicious that he wanted to touch his daughter.

When I asked later, it turned out that he was already married to a female educated youth, and the couple was preparing to take the college entrance examination.

Wang Wenbo felt a little confused: Is he really an ordinary member of the production team, self-taught, with such vision and knowledge?
Isn't this too genius?
When Wang Wenbo stayed for lunch, Mr. Wang didn't seem to welcome it, and even muttered a few words in his mouth, but he was actually in a happy mood.

Even Ji Yuanhai brought up the matter of Ji Yuanhai not helping him take care of flowers and plants with a smile, no longer disappointed, and asked Ji Yuanhai whether life would be difficult in the future.

Wang Wenbo listened to the details calmly, when he suddenly heard the word "Director Bai", he paused with his chopsticks and blurted out, "Bai Shouyan? Why is there him here?"

Seeing him like this, Mr. Wang was unusually patient and told Wang Wenbo the cause and effect of the matter.

Wang Wenbo nodded and thought about it while eating.

This matter should be about how you are doing and how I am doing, how are you all?
Or……

"If you are really capable and have any ideas, please discuss it with Xiao Ji first."

"This is Xiao Ji's place of food and clothing. You can't destroy people's jobs for no reason."

A son is better than a father. When Mr. Wang saw Wang Wenbo's appearance, he knew that he was weighing some pros and cons in a deeper way, so he reminded him.

Wang Wenbo nodded: "Yes, I understand, Dad."

He looked at Ji Yuanhai again.

Ji Yuanhai was listening on the side, and when he saw that the topic came to him, he said, "Brother Wang, just tell me, and I will definitely cooperate if I can."

Wang Wenbo smiled: "Probably not, probably not."

"What's the matter, let's talk."

After eating, Ji Yuanhai left the Wang family and went to the flower shop.

The flowers and plants were growing well and business was good. Gao Daming had a lot of joy on his face.

Liu Xianglan moved things and took care of the flowers and plants according to Ji Yuanhai's request, but she was free at other times, and Gao Daming would sell flowers when she was selling flowers.

Ji Yuanhai stayed in the shop for some time and found a place to sit down.

Liu Xianglan quickly poured hot water for him in an enamel jar, and added two rock sugar into it, making him drink comfortably and sweetly.

Ji Yuanhai smiled at her, and Liu Xianglan happily went to work with joy in her eyes.

After drinking two sips of water, Ji Yuanhai's eyes were a little blank.

Compared with Wang Lao, Wang Wenbo's utilitarianism is obvious.

There are also some other historical reasons in the past, Ji Yuanhai also heard it, which is probably the reason why Wang Lao and Wang Zhuyun have a relatively stiff relationship with him.

It's fine if Wang Wenbo doesn't have any ideas, but once he really has any ideas, Ji Yuanhai will be in trouble again.

"Gao Daming!"

A shout came suddenly, Ji Yuanhai put down the enamel jar and looked outside.

Gao Daming and Liu Xianglan also put down their work and looked outside.

Five or six young people with tilted heads came to the flower shop with a pot of flowers in their hands.

"What the hell did you sell me?"

"In less than three days, the flower died!"

In the first two sentences, Ji Yuanhai, Gao Daming, and Liu Xianglan all understood that they were just looking for trouble!

Because of a pot of flowers, so five or six young people, street thugs came to find trouble?The problem is obviously not with this potted flower.

Gao Daming smiled dryly and walked out: "Isn't this Brother Jianguo? Brother Jianguo, what's going on with you? Why are you so angry?"

"Don't you fucking understand?" The young man in the lead yelled, "I bought flowers from this shop, and within three days, they withered and died!"

"Gao Daming, tell me, what should we do about this matter!"

Gao Daming asked: "Brother Jianguo, what kind of flower did you say you bought? I will compensate you for a pot of the same flower at the original price. What do you think?"

"It's not good! What if it withers after you pay the money?" the young man shouted, "Besides, did the brothers come here for a pot of flowers?"

"It's you, Gao Daming, who doesn't know how to grow flowers and plants, and sells me inferior flowers as high-quality ones. I can't swallow this breath, so I'm here!"

"Now he's not just a potted flower, we brothers are here just to vent our anger!"

Gao Daming gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Brother Jianguo, if you want to take it out, I will let you do it."

"Take back all the money you sell flowers, and I'll pay you back. If you have flowers and plants you like, just take them home."

"So, is it okay?"

The young man named Jianguo burst out laughing: "Okay, why not? Did you say that a long time ago?"

"Bring it!"

He stretched out his hand and asked Gao Daming to pay for it. He then picked up two pots of flowers and left with a smile.

When the group of them left, Gao Daming and Liu Xianglan began to feel worried.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like letting go. It seems that there are other troubles behind.

"What should I do now? I have to ask Director Bai..."

Gao Daming said a word, got on his bicycle and went out for a trip, and came back more than half an hour later with a smile on his face.

"Director Bai said that he will take a look at the situation and it will be resolved soon."

Liu Xianglan was relieved, and Ji Yuanhai was also relieved—maybe it was because of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade.

Looks like it should be fine.

In the evening, when Ji Yuanhai and Liu Xianglan were preparing to go back, a young man named Jianguo came to the front of the shop with a frown on his face.

"Brother Daming, I've brought you money."

"There are also flowers and plants, I put them outside for you."

Gao Damingle laughed straight: "Okay, okay...Okay, brother Jianguo, you can go."

"Don't be so polite next time!"

After he left, Gao Daming said with emotion: "You said that doing business is not as good as sitting in an office... I used to feel that Director Bai was a bit afraid of people. At this critical moment, there is really nothing we can do without Director Bai."

"You didn't even ask, who sent that Jianguo?" Ji Yuanhai said.

Gao Daming shook his head directly: "I don't think you need to ask, it must be the family named Zhao."

"That family's selling flowers and plants is much darker than ours. When they see someone who doesn't know how to do it, they really charge wildly. Man's Gypsophila dares to sell it as a national treasure with you!"

"I heard that there are also a batch of fake flowers, which are specially designed to deceive people with bad eyesight."

"I, Gao Daming, say I can't, so I won't. I have so many abilities, but I won't be so deceitful."

Ji Yuanhai nodded as he listened, and took note of the Zhao family flower seller.

If not as expected, the plastic flowers Wang Zhuyun bought might have been bought from this Zhao family.

Thinking that this matter should end here, Ji Yuanhai and Liu Xianglan also returned to Xiaoshantun.

Unexpectedly, when Liu Xianglan came home the next day, when she talked about the flower shop, her face became sad again.

The person who made trouble yesterday came again, and the young man named Jianguo was still the leader.

Gao Daming had no choice but to go to Director Bai again.

This time Director Bai not only stopped helping, but directly cut off contact with Gao Daming, telling Gao Daming that the flower shop had nothing to do with him, and he should not look for him in the future.

Even the matter of him coercing and luring Gao Daming at the beginning was exposed, and he made it clear that he would never have any contact with Gao Daming again.

However, Gao Daming is absolutely not allowed to mention any word "white", the two sides have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

Not to mention Gao Daming and Liu Xianglan didn't know what was going on with this change, even Ji Yuanhai couldn't understand it.

What exactly happened here?
