After being reborn, I kidnapped the future powerful minister

Chapter 146 A Promise

The next day, Cui Yunhao did not go to Wansong Academy as usual, but attended the celebration banquet as usual.

It wasn't until dark that the banquet ended successfully. Cui Yunhao went to Jishi Hall to go home with Chu Yingying. As soon as he entered Guichun Lane, he saw a group of people waiting at the gate of his courtyard.

Cui Yunhao saw from a distance that the leader was Pei Wencan, so he frowned and stopped to watch. Pei Wencan spotted him, ran over three steps at a time, and said with a stern face, "Yun Hao dismissed class."

The corners of Cui Yunhao's mouth curled up slightly, as if he did not reject his sudden arrival, but his tone was still indifferent: "Master Pei is here, please forgive me for being too far away to welcome you."

Pei Wencan said cheerfully, "I've been waiting here for a long time, and finally I'm waiting for you."

Cui Yunhao raised his hand and said: "How can I make your old man stand and wait for me, if you want, please come into the humble house and have a cup of tea."

"Of course I am willing." Hearing this, Pei Wencan beamed with joy.

Chu Yingying looked at Cui Yunhao in amazement, not understanding why he invited Pei Wencan to his home, but Cui Yunhao only smiled and did not speak.

Chu Yingying had no choice but to take out the key to open the lock, and invited Pei Wencan to enter. After entering, Pei Wencan immediately looked around and said quietly, "Yun Hao, I didn't expect your living environment here to be so simple. I blame me for not thinking carefully."

When the words fell, he raised his hand, and an attendant immediately stepped forward, handed a black wooden box into Cui Yunhao's hands, and said sincerely: "Yunhao, I have 180 taels here, as a congratulations Please accept the gift that won the championship in one fell swoop. In addition, I bought a small house in Luoxia Lane in the south of the city. It has two entrances and two exits. Although it is not very big, it is quiet and tidy. Move to the house together, and it will be more convenient to communicate with Pei's family in the future."

Cui Yunhao did not accept it, but returned the black wooden box to Pei Wencan, and said indifferently: "Master Pei, why did you say that? I have a deep relationship with the Pei family, how can I take your money for nothing? Besides, I am now It’s not what it used to be, the yamen has given out a lot of bonuses, as for the small house, I’m quite used to living in the humble house, and I’m getting along well with the few nearby families, I’m afraid I don’t need Mr. Pei to bother me.”

Hearing this, Pei Wencan's face turned reddish immediately, and he felt quite embarrassed, but he still said politely: "Yun Hao, what you said is very true, if you encounter difficulties in the future, please tell me immediately, and you must not see me again." Besides, my father and I are as strong as gold, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it for you."

However, he doesn't seem to remember that such a clichéd scene has been talked about to Cui Yunhao before, and the words are convincing, and now it is mentioned again, it is still so slippery, but both the speaker and the listener have their own ghosts That's all.

Cui Yunhao nodded perfunctorily, and then asked, "May I ask why Master Pei came to see me?"

Pei Wencan thought for a while, and said, "That's right, Yun Hao, this incident not only has a great impact on our Pei family, but also has a great relationship with you, so I came to visit in person."

Cui Yunhao immediately asked: "Master Pei is so troublesome, it really makes me curious, what is the reason?"

Pei Wencan squinted his eyes and said, "It's hard to say, Yun Hao, do you remember that your father gave you a chrysoprase bead before?"

Cui Yunhao nodded and said, "Hmm, what's wrong?"

Pei Wencan was afraid that he would settle old scores and get furious, so he drove him out, and immediately said: "Yun Hao, you may still be in the dark, I blamed me for being impulsive, the chrysoprase beads were given by Zhuo Jing's relatives My birthday gift was two identical beads at the beginning. I got up and gave a bead to my father. I was kept in the dark about this matter, but not long after, she suddenly talked to me about it. bead, and force me to claim the bead you gave me."

Paused, lowered his head, and said with great guilt: "I was so busy all day because of the booming business that I was dizzy, and I kept arguing in front of my eyes. As a last resort, I came to ask you to return it, since you left Pei's mansion. , I immediately felt very regretful, and sent someone to search for the whole night, but after searching for several days, I couldn't find you, and now, I feel that I have really failed my father's last entrustment and trust."

Pei Wencan muttered like a cat crying like a mouse, and cunningly shifted his responsibility away. Cui Yunhao was indifferent, and even wanted to laugh. He looked at him with folded arms and said, "Master Pei is now talking about this inside story. What kind of secret is it hiding?"

Pei Wencan raised his thumb immediately upon hearing the words, and boasted: "Yun Hao, you are so amazing, you guessed my meaning so quickly. To be honest, I only realized later that I left out one thing that I spent a lot of time with your father. year agreement."

Cui Yunhao raised his eyebrows suspiciously, and said, "A promise?"

Pei Wencan nodded, and said: "Yes, shortly after you were born, I gave your father a chrysoprase bead. Unexpectedly, Zhuojing gave birth to a daughter not long after. , I will discuss with your father and let my daughter marry you when she grows up!"

Chu Yingying, who had been keeping silent all this time, was taken aback when she heard the words. She turned her face away and looked at Cui Yunhao, only to find that his expression was slightly turbulent, and he didn't react too much. It seemed that he had guessed the statement a long time ago.

Chu Yingying immediately realized that it was because of the agreement between the Pei family and Cui Shangming that Pei Wencan became so determined that she forced the young and orphaned Cui Yunhao to return Cui Shangming's chrysoprase bead, so she and Cui Yunhao left Not long after Pei's mansion, a man in black rushed out and snatched the beads from him.

Thinking of this, Chu Yingying couldn't help but glanced at Cui Yunhao. Cui Yunhao seemed to feel it, and looked at her for a while.

Cui Yunhao smiled at her, then looked at Pei Wencan, and said, "What kind of agreement is it?"

Pei Wencan looked downcastly and said: "It's all my fault for my poor memory. If I didn't check the letterheads I used to communicate with my father, I probably would have forgotten them long ago. When I, Pei Wencan, go west, how can I have the nerve to explain to my father? I really don't talk about it. New use!"

Cui Yunhao touched his nose, and said lightly: "Master Pei now thinks about it, but it's not too late."

Hearing the words, Pei Wencan immediately burst into smiles, and his spirit seemed lifted.

Cui Yunhao coughed and said, "But, Mr. Pei is empty talk, can you ask me to have a look at my father's letterhead?"

Pei Wencan nodded hastily, and said, "It's absolutely fine. I'll keep that letter on my body, Yun Hao, just read it over."

As he spoke, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Cui Yunhao.

Cui Yunhao took it immediately, and saw that the paper was already torn and wrinkled, but the words on it could still be clearly distinguished.

Pei Wencan rubbed his smooth chin and said, "Because of many years and improper storage, it looks rather dilapidated."
