206 Such a Caring Man

Sheng Huaixuan was very interested in the watercolor brush that Bai Wutong had made for Chu Tianbao.

There were a few more in her study, so she gave him two brushes and a bottle of ink.

Sheng Huaixuan had seen how Chu Tianbao used the watercolor brush. He added some ink to the watercolor brush and held it with his hand to test it out.

He was surprised to discover that the watercolor brush was comparable to the best quality wolf brush.

!!

From the corner of his eye, he saw Xiaobai. He suddenly smiled and asked, “Is this a watercolor brush made of Xiaobai’s fur?”

Bai Wutong’s gentle eyes were filled with laughter. “We exchanged three sausages for a small clump of its fur.”

Ever since its fur was used to make a watercolor pen, Xiaobai had realized that its fur could be exchanged for sausages. If it wanted to eat sausages, it would bite a few tufts of its fur and place them in front of Bai Wutong, signaling for Bai Wutong to give itself sausages.

When it had plucked out too much, other than making watercolor pens, the extra fur was used to make a mini white fur rug and placed at the head of the bed.

Sheng Huaixuan looked as if he had expected this. “No wonder this brush is so smooth. So it’s an actual wolf brush!”

The wolf brush was made of the softest fur on the body of a living wolf. The strokes written using it were smooth and it felt extremely good in the hands. The wolf brush was very popular among scholars.

However, wolves were very ferocious and not easy to capture, so the wolf brush was ridiculously expensive.

Sheng Huaixuan said, “If you use rabbit fur, you can also make into a watercolor brush, right?”

Bai Wutong nodded. “The most important concept of a watercolor pen is that there is an air compartment that can quickly absorb water when pressed. As for the brush tip, it’s similar regardless of the material used.”

When she was making the watercolor brush, she had specially compared the rabbit fur with Xiaobai’s fur. They were actually similar.

Therefore, the wolf brush that was highly pursued in the ancient times was just to rip off people.

However, it was undeniable that some experts could tell the slight difference and they could make use of this to show off.

It was the same for modern people. Even though bags were for storing things, they had to be divided into various grades. If they were labeled with a luxury brand, they could be sold for a sky-high price.

Sheng Huaixuan smiled and said to her, “Sister-in-law, if you are willing to sell the watercolor brush, it will definitely be popular.”

Bai Wutong knew that he asked about the watercolor brush because he wanted to discuss business with her.

This was not the first time they had worked together. She trusted him.

Bai Wutong nodded. “I’ll give you the blueprint in a moment.”

Other than the watercolor brush, Sheng Huaixuan was very interested in the modified automatic charcoal brush and solid paint.

If he sold these things in a literary and ink shop, it would definitely awe the scholars.

After all, such a convenient watercolor brush, solid paint, and other products were convenient to carry and use. Even he liked them very much. How could others escape the charm of modern stationery?

Bai Wutong nodded. “Sure.” She took out something that looked like a soap from the drawer and placed it in front of Sheng Huaixuan. “Since we’re starting a sale anyway, let’s sell this too. This is called an eraser. It can wipe away the traces of the charcoal brush.”

“The traces of the charcoal brush can still be erased?”

Nodding, Bai Wutong took out a sketchbook made of charcoal paper and drew an adorable version of Xiaobai on it.

There was a lifelike drawing of Xiaobai holding a rabbit in its mouth. Just as Sheng Huaixuan was about to praise Bai Wutong’s drawing, she picked up the eraser and wiped it away.

Sheng Huaixuan was stunned. “How magical!”

Bai Wutong smiled and said. “If you write something wrongly, you can erase it and continue writing. It saves paper.”

At this moment, Sheng Huaixuan had many ideas.

Not only did record books, but in daily life, one could erase anything with the magical eraser and correct.

The combination of the charcoal pen and eraser would definitely be popular in the market.

Sheng Huaixuan said excitedly, “Sister-in-law, what is this made of? How can it be so magical?”

Bai Wutong smiled. “It’s mainly made of flour and oil. The composition of the oil can be used to make soap, and soap can be used for cleaning. The principle is the same. That’s why I thought of this thing.”

Sheng Huaixuan was enlightened. “No wonder it looks so similar to soap!”

She smiled and said, “When you sell the erasers, you can also make all kinds of shapes or add colors to make the erasers look more exquisite.”

Sheng Huaixuan came up with more ideas. “In addition to the soap, the automatic charcoal brush, charcoal paper, solid paint, and watercolor brushes can also have more exquisite designs.”

Bai Wutong knew that there was no need for her to enlighten him. Sheng Huaixuan could bring these stationery to greater heights and earn endless money.

They chatted and laughed so happily that Chu Tianbao became sour. He stuffed Stinky into Sheng Huaixuan’s arms. “Stinky said he’s hungry!”

Stinky widened his eyes and shouted in cooperation, “…Eat… Eat…” It would be a waste not to eat.

Before leaving, she had just fed him a bowl of baby food. How could he be hungry?

Sheng Huaixuan had not seen his son all morning. He was really worried that he would be hungry, so he hurriedly bade farewell with Stinky. “Sister-in-law, we’ll discuss it another day.”

Bai Wutong nodded and turned around to meet Chu Tianbao’s resentful gaze. His entire body was filled with a strong sour smell.

She curled her lips and went into the kitchen to bring the food as if she hadn’t seen it.

Chu Tianbao held his breath and ate three big bowls of rice angrily.

Bai Wutong picked up a piece of bittergourd for him. “Don’t just eat meat. You have to eat some vegetables.”

Chu Tianbao looked down and his angry cheeks immediately deflated.

He could eat vegetables, but could he not eat bittergourd?

The bitter gourd really tasted bad.

Bai Wutong raised her eyebrows. “Tianbao is picky with food?”

Chu Tianbao gave her a meaningful look. Immediately, he picked up the bitter gourd in his bowl and stuffed it into his mouth. He ate a few more mouthfuls of rice before swallowing the bitter gourd with difficulty.

After dinner, Bai Wutong had to practice her martial arts in the afternoon. There were still some vegetables in the courtyard. If she didn’t pick them now, they would turn yellow the next day.

Bai Wutong planned to marinate all the vegetables while she had time.

...

Chu Tianbao still had two hours of class in the afternoon. Bai Wutong said to him, “Tianbao, go and nap for a while. This way you will be energized in class in the afternoon.”

Qinghe Hall had four hours of lesson in the morning and two hours of lesson in the afternoon. This way, the students could take some time for their farm work after school in the afternoon.

Chu Tianbao had to go to school, and Bai Wutong had to practise her martial arts. The work in the fields was handed over to Village Chief Zhao and the others to take care of. When the harvest time came, she would then pay them.

Only the vegetables in the backyard were taken care of by the two of them.

Chu Tianbao shook his head. “If my wife isn’t going, I’m not going either.”

Life was very comfortable after they had settled down. Bai Wutong had developed the habit of taking an afternoon nap. Recently, it was almost autumn harvest. There were many things to do, so she did not sleep much.

Chu Tianbao insisted on following her to work. Bai Wutong thought for a moment. “Then we’ll take a nap. When you finish school in the afternoon, we’ll make the marianted vegetables.”

Chu Tianbao’s eyes lit up. In the next second, he carried her upstairs to the bedroom.

Bai Wutong did not like to wear so many clothes to sleep. Even if it was an afternoon nap, she had to change into pajamas.

Chu Tianbao knew her habit and naturally walked to the wardrobe. He took out her pajamas, then his own, and automatically went to the toilet to change.

Bai Wutong stared at the pajamas on the bed and smiled. How could such a considerate man not make her tempted?
