the next day.
Shi Ran deliberately chose to appear when his grandfather was discussing business with others.
Because she was afraid that grandpa was too busy and would postpone the recommendation letter, and for grandpa, this matter was optional, but she didn't want to make Shi Ran sad, so she planned to agree to it, but Lin Yufei couldn't wait.
So, Shi Ran deliberately chose this time.
She smiled and sat in her grandfather's arms. With just a few quick glances, she knew that the two grandfathers in front of her were people who held pens all year round. One of them was the administrator of the Shi family library, and the other was a secretary who had followed her grandfather for many years.
"Do your fingers hurt?"
"Hmm? How did you know that, young lady?"
The administrator grandfather asked in surprise.
"Sister Lin Yufei said! People who often hold a pen like grandpa might suffer from pain in their finger joints!"
Shi Ran threw all the balls to Lin Yufei, took out the ointment given by Lin Yufei, and covered her fingertips with the ointment.
"Please give your hand to Shiran."
After hearing Shi Ran's words, the administrator grandfather stretched out a painful hand.
Indeed, the fingers holding the pen looked uncomfortable bent, and there were even calluses on the joints.
Shi Ran carefully applied the ointment bit by bit.
The reaction came quickly.
"oh?"
The old man was shocked and looked at the ointment with wonder.
"How about it?"
Shi Ran used her small hands to apply it diligently so that it could be absorbed into every joint.
At this time, Shi Ran stared at the administrator's grandfather's hand, and his thoughts returned to his previous life.
Although her relationship with the administrator grandfather was not very good, after her father passed away, she would often go to the library, sometimes staying very late. The administrator grandfather would wait until she left before turning off the lights, and occasionally teach Shi Ran if he didn't understand something in the books.
Maybe it was just a small kindness for the administrator, but Shi Ran felt greatly comforted at that time.
Shi Ran, filled with gratitude at that time, gently applied ointment on the administrator's hands.
Afterwards, Shi Ran applied ointment to the secretary grandfather.
"What does it feel like?"
The administrator grandfather sniffed the scent in his hand and said, "The cool feeling is stronger than before, and the fragrance is not pungent, it has a tea-like aroma. Thanks to you, I hardly feel any pain. This is really something."
"Hey, huh?"
After applying the ointment to the secretary grandpa, he turned and looked at the grandfather with a smile.
"Grandpa, it's your turn now."
Although it was given to grandpa at the beginning, grandpa couldn’t be left out in front of these two old people.
As before, lift up Grandpa's trouser legs and apply the ointment to his knees.
"How do you know Grandpa's knees are bad?"
I asked this before, but Shi Ran didn’t answer.
This time, while applying the ointment, she said, "Because I noticed Grandpa, he would occasionally slap his knees."
"Shi Ran..."
Grandpa looked at Shi Ran, speechless for a moment.
Shi Ran knew what was wrong with his grandfather, and this seemed to move him deeply.
"Grandpa, how is it? Is it worthy of a letter of recommendation from Grandpa?"
"What recommendation?"
The administrator grandfather asked curiously.
"The sister who made this ointment wants to apply for graduate school, but that college requires a letter of recommendation."
"Being able to make this kind of medicine really deserves a letter of recommendation."
The administrator grandfather said with a laugh.
“If this kind of talent starts research in a well-equipped academy, we can start looking forward to what kind of results can be achieved now.”
Secretary Grandpa also began to echo.
"That's good." Grandpa nodded. "The Shi family really needs this kind of talent, and drug research and development is just in the investment stage. Since Shi Ran has come to me like this, I'll write a letter of recommendation for him."
Shi Ran clapped happily.
"Grandpa, don't forget, this is a business between us!"
Grandpa smiled kindly and hooked his fingers around Shi Ran's neck.
"Little clever ghost!"
Shi Ran raised her mouth and kissed her grandfather on the cheek.
"I knew grandpa was the best."
She really knew how to control Grandpa, and a kiss on the cheek would make him laugh happily.
Shi Ran handed the letter of recommendation and a check to Lin Yufei.
“You really did it.”
Lin Yufei looked at her in surprise.
After all, he was just a ten-year-old child, and this was completely unexpected.
"This is Grandpa's letter of recommendation, and the check is for the patent fee. The ointment tested fine, and Grandpa has someone apply for a patent. This money will allow you to conduct research well during your graduate studies. But, sister, can you promise me one thing?"
Lin Yufei squatted down and said to her at eye level, "Don't even mention one, ten will do."
"Sister, if our Shi family's pharmaceutical company becomes the first pharmaceutical company when you graduate, can you come and work for us? We value talents very much, and sister is exactly the talent we need."
"Yeah." Lin Yufei nodded without hesitation. "Shi Ran, thank you, thank you so much."
"I wish you academic success. I'm waiting for you to come back."
"Thanks."
She patted Shi Ran's head gently, took a deep breath, and left with a smile.
When the old man was seeing the teacher off from Shi's house, they chatted on the way.
"I didn't expect that my precious granddaughter would come to me to discuss business, hahahaha..."
Thinking of what Shi Ran said, the old man couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The teacher seemed to be thinking about something.
"Master, Miss Shi Ran is very smart."
"Although he's only a ten-year-old, he's very smart."
The old man couldn't help but praise it.
"If we can guide him well, the Shi family will have a successor."
"Yes." The old man put away his smile and nodded seriously. "I can now safely hand the Shi family over to the hands of their younger generation."
There is no one who can support the Shi family now.
The eldest son of the old man was good-tempered and gentle, and he did not fight for the family property, nor did he care about business matters. The second son wanted to make a name for himself in the business world, but he had only ambition and no brains, so he was put in charge of the company, but he made no progress.
Shi Yan and Shi Guang were even more incompetent. They had been playboys since childhood, and later they squandered all of the Shi family's property in just one year.
At present, it seems that there is only Shiran.
Shi Ran's father and the teacher sat down face to face.
Surprisingly, this was the first time Shi Ran's father visited the teacher's home, and Shi Ran sat obediently next to his father.
Shi Ran's father spoke with a dry mouth while sitting on the soft chair, feeling a little embarrassed.
"I know you're busy, but I still came to visit you to get your advice."
"You don't have to bother coming to see me. You can just ask me to come to your house."
"Because this is not the Shi family's business, but my own business."
The teacher nodded in understanding. "We don't have much time, so I hope you can explain it quickly."
