Scumbag Training Manual

Chapter 27 The Covenant
Pei Jing's eyes turned red instantly, and he swooped up to punch Liu Huai hard in the face.

Suddenly, someone behind him quickly hugged him by the waist, and said in a hurried voice: "No way! Pei Jing, don't be impulsive!"

He turned around and saw that it was Zhong Qinwen.

Pei Jing roared, "Let go! I'm going to kill him!"

Zhong Qinwen hugged his waist tightly and shouted: "Pei Jing! Don't you want your family's life? He is not something you can provoke now!"

Liu Huai laughed wildly, and his subordinates kept smashing the whole shop into a mess. Just now, he clapped his hands and said happily: "Pei Jing, now your family's land and real estate are all mine, your beloved! The woman in my life will soon marry me Liu Huai, you are a dignified young master of the Pei family, but now you are just like a lost dog. I advise you, you should keep your tail and behave like a good man!"

He spat fiercely at Pei Jing, and walked away with a few followers.

It was not until Liu Huai disappeared that Zhong Qinwen dared to let Pei Jing go.

Pei Jing slipped and fell to the ground as if collapsed, looked at the mess in the shop, and closed his eyes.

Zhong Qinwen let out a sigh, and also sat on the side.

After a long time, Pei Jing asked in a low voice, "Why are you here?"

Zhong Qinwen said: "I heard that your family has moved, I searched all the way, and I heard from your mother that you are here..."

Pei Jing let out a breath and asked, "What did Liu Huai mean just now? Why does my beloved woman want to marry him?"

Zhong Qinwen said gruffly: "Haven't you heard? Yesterday the Liu family went to the Sui County Prince's Mansion to propose marriage, and I heard that the Sui County King agreed."

Pei Jing said in disbelief: "How is it possible? The difference between their two families is not 01:30. How can a son of a small clerk be worthy of being the head of the county?"

Zhong Qinwen sighed and said, "Are you only realizing it now? When you were pursuing the county magistrate, did you ever consider the family status of your two families?"

Pei Jing curled his lips, did not speak, and looked a little bewildered.

Zhong Qinwen stood up, looked at the mess in the room, and said apologetically, "Pei Jing, my father will let me go to Minzhou to study in a semicolon in a few days. I don't know when I will come back after I leave. I'm struggling and I can't help you..."

He took out 20 taels of silver from his sleeve and handed it to Pei Jing, "You gave it to me that night, I didn't touch it, your family is in trouble now, take it to the emergency."

Pei Jing didn't speak, just looked at him indifferently, Zhong Qinwen was embarrassed, didn't dare to meet his eyes, put the silver at his feet, and left in a hurry.

Pei Jing sighed, human feelings are cold and warm, but that's it.

He said to go to other places, and said to study, but it was just a pretense.

The Zhong family just opened a small silk and satin shop. Why did they have a branch in Minzhou?
Pei Jing smiled wryly, and reached out to pick up the silver at his feet.

The family is not rich now, so of course he would want the money.

He stood up and began to slowly pack up the things in the shop.

People passing by all showed curious visits, but no one would bother to ask.

Pei Jing was picking up the broken sundries with his head down, throwing them aside, when suddenly a pair of very delicate satin shoes appeared in front of him.

He looked up, and it was his little daughter-in-law, Chen Miao.

The little woman in front of her didn't show much surprise when she saw the mess in the room. She just silently put the food box in her hand aside and bent down to pack it together with him.

The two of them didn't speak, and they kept tidying up until almost noon before barely cleaning up the shop.

Pei Jing let out a long breath, and collapsed on the chair. Chen Miao wiped the sweat off her face, lifted the food box that was put aside, put it on the table, opened the lid and found that the food was completely cold.

"It's cold..." Chen Miao hesitated.

Pei Jing didn't have any strength in his body now, and he was even more hungry, so he didn't care whether it was cold or hot, he took it and ate it, and said vaguely while eating: "It's okay..."

Halfway through eating, he raised his head and found that Chen Miao was looking at him thoughtfully with her cheeks propped.

Pei Jing put down his job and asked sullenly, "What are you looking at me for?"

Chen Miao was silent for a while, and said, "I'm thinking, how should you explain to Dad about the things in the shop."

Pei Jing put down his job depressedly, and said in a muffled voice, "How else can I explain it, just tell the truth."

Chen Miao said: "You offended Liu Huai, I'm afraid he won't just let it go like this. I think it's better for you to avoid the limelight for a while, since this store doesn't make much money anyway, so just tell dad and just close it down. Find a job to do."

Pei Jing snorted, "You are a woman, what do you know?"

Chen Miao curled her lips, "Pei Jing, don't underestimate people, I know as much as you do."

Pei Jing was a little displeased: "How can you call me by my name? Shouldn't you be calling me husband?"

Chen Miao laughed: "Why did you ever regard me as your wife?"

Pei Jing was a little embarrassed, and argued to himself: "The church is all worshiped, so what can I do? Anyway, you are not the type I like, and I don't recognize this marriage."

Chen Miao didn't care much and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry, but you are not my type either. If it wasn't for repaying your father's kindness, I wouldn't have married into Pei's family either."

Chen Miao sighed: "The Pei family has become like this now, and it is even more impossible for me to leave."

She said seriously: "Pei Jing, why don't we make an agreement."

Pei Jing looked at her puzzled, and asked in a daze, "What agreement?"

Chen Miao said seriously: "Three years, I will give you three years to revive the lintel of the Pei family. I really wait until that day, and I will voluntarily reconcile with you."

Pei Jing opened her mouth in a daze, seemingly unable to digest her words.

Chen Miao smiled slightly. Under the sunlight, her delicate face seemed to be more charming, but her voice was clear and loud.

"How? You are not yet 19 years old this year, and I am only 16 years old. We gave each other three years, and I stayed in the Pei family for three years, which is considered to be repaying your father's kindness. When the Pei family revitalizes, I will You can leave with peace of mind. When you are rich and powerful, no matter which woman you like, you can naturally marry her."

Pei Jing murmured, "What about you?"

When the time comes, the Pei family will really develop, is she really willing to leave?What good would that do her?
Once married, and old again, what should I do?

Chen Miao smiled sweetly, "Ling'er will grow up by then, I believe Ling'er will study hard and get a good name in the exam, I will still have Ling'er for the rest of my life, so I don't need you to worry about it."

After finishing speaking, she asked again: "How about it, can you agree?"

Pei Jing felt a little uncomfortable, but he was afraid that the little woman in front of him would make fun of her. It's only been three years, can he still be underestimated by this woman?

He slapped the table heavily: "If you agree, you will agree. What you say is unsubstantiated, and words are evidence!"
