Scumbag Training Manual

Chapter 293 The Covenant
Pei Xinsi thought about it, since she promised to buy things for her mother in front of Chen Miao, she couldn't break her promise.

But things worth ten taels of silver are neither too much nor too little. You can’t be greedy for the money and do nothing. When it’s my mother’s birthday, I can’t bring out a decent item. Unreasonable.

Pei Xin thought about it for a while, but in the end he still had no idea. After noon, his addiction to cigarettes fell again, and he couldn't help but went to Fushouju to smoke a cigarette again.

After leaving the gate of Fushouju, another four taels of silver were gone.Counting the silver in the purse, plus the one tael left yesterday, there are only 17 taels of silver left. Even if I barely survive three days to smoke once, it is far from enough to fill this big hole.

Pei Xin gritted his teeth and had no choice but to go to Baoruizhai again.

Pei Songzhi was still busy in the store, he seemed to be okay when he saw Pei Xin, and never mentioned why he didn't come over last night.

Still yelling at the little guy to serve some good tea for Pei Xin to eat.

Pei Xin took a piece of pastry and chewed it twice in his mouth, but felt that he couldn't swallow it.

Pei Songzhi asked in surprise, "Why, today's pastries are not to your liking?"

Pei Xin put down the pastry and said gruffly, "To be honest, Second Uncle, I came here today to ask for something."

Pei Songzhi laughed heartily: "It's all because the family is embarrassed to say it. Even if the second uncle can't do it, he must find a way to help you do it! Say it."

Pei Xin plucked up his courage and said, "It's my mother's birthday in a few days. I want to buy a gift for my mother, but I don't have a lot of money, so..."

Pei Songzhi was startled, and suddenly laughed loudly, "Silly boy, what did I think it was, it turned out to be sister-in-law's birthday, why didn't you say it earlier."

Pei Songzhi pulled Pei Xin to the counter, took out several pieces of jewelry with fresh colors and unique styles from the counter, put them one by one in front of Pei Xin, and said with a smile: "Choose by yourself, these are the most popular styles in Beijing this year , whichever one you like, just take it, even if the second uncle gave it to you."

Pei Xin was surprised and happy, but he was very anxious, and said bluntly: "This looks like a lot of valuable things, how can my nephew take my second uncle, not to mention that these are all the property of my uncle, and my uncle is not here?" "

Pei Songzhi said indifferently: "Your uncle went to Luzhou to discuss business, and your mother's birthday will definitely not come back. Now I can be half of the family here, and I can still make decisions about a mere piece of jewelry. What's more, uncle, I can still afford to give this one hundred and ten taels of silver."

Pei Xin was still a little embarrassed, Pei Songzhi smiled slightly, took a sapphire hair clip from the jewelry and handed it to Pei Xin, and said with a smile: "I think this is the best, and it also fits the current status of my sister-in-law, so you can give this to her." , keep her smiling from ear to ear."

Pei Xin accepted it in surprise, "It's so beautiful, this must be very expensive?"

Pei Songzhi smiled and said: "It's just a few hundred taels, don't take it to heart, just say you gave it when you go back, don't tell me."

Pei Xin hid the hair button in his bosom, until he got home and still doubted that it was not true at all. He took the hair button out of his bosom a few times and looked at it again and again before he got a sense of reality.

Now that I owe Pei Songzhi such a big favor, Pei Xin also feels a little sorry for him, thinking that if Pei Songzhi really wants him to help bring something, I will help him once, anyway, there are 50 taels of silver to earn, right? ?
A few days later, on Lu's birthday, several children clamored for her to hold a big event, so it was very lively, but Lu couldn't shirk it, so he had to agree.

On the day of the birthday, several tables of running water seats were set up at home, and Chen Ling invited the theater troupe to sing at the house, and invited all the relatives and friends who were acquainted to come and have a good time.

Pei Xin gave the hair buckle that Pei Songzhi gave to Mrs. Lu, Mrs. Lu was really happy, but wondered where his son bought such a fine jewelry, and where did his money come from.

Pei Xin half-truthfully said that his sister-in-law gave him ten taels of silver, plus his monthly allowance, and then went to Baoruizhai, and his second uncle gave him a discounted price before buying this.

After hearing this, Mrs. Lu was even more moved by his son's filial piety, fearing that he would have no money to spend this month, he secretly stuffed 20 taels of silver into Pei Xin's hand when no one was around.

Pei Xin earned 20 taels of silver by being a favor for free, and was extremely proud. After the banquet was over in the evening, he went to Fushouju to smoke a pipe, and then came back in a happy mood.

Pei Xin had more money on hand, so he naturally forgot about Pei Songzhi.

After he frequently went in and out of Fushouju for a few days, he suddenly realized that his purse was rapidly deflated again.

Fushouju is a place that burns money. If you don't consider the income of money, then your own money will not be able to support your smoking expenses in the second half of the month.

After thinking about it, Pei Xin gritted his teeth and came to Baoruizhai again.

Pei Songzhi still asked the store clerk to bring tea and snacks, but Pei Xin didn't eat or drink this time, and only said to Pei Songzhi, "Second Uncle, I agreed to help you with the matter you told me last time."

Pei Songzhi pretended to be puzzled: "What matter?"

Pei Xin was stunned for a moment, and had no choice but to say: "You told me last time, let me bring things for you."

He paused and added: "You said that you would give me 50 taels of silver afterwards."

Pei Songzhi was stunned, but frowned again: "But you didn't come that night, so I found someone else to do it, and now that person has left Yunzhou, so I don't need your help."

Pei Xin suddenly became anxious, "Second Uncle, but you agreed."

Pei Songzhi pressed his hands down, motioned him to be quieter, and said in a low voice, "How can you blame me? I gave you a chance, but you didn't grasp it well. Do you have such opportunities every day? Money is about seizing opportunities in a split second, otherwise, just watch others make money!"

Pei Xin stared blankly at Pei Songzhi drinking tea slowly, feeling at a loss.

If even this opportunity is lost, where can he go to earn such a large sum of money?
The money in his hand can only support his expenses for three to five days at most, what should he do after these three to five days pass?
Pei Songzhi looked at the expression on Pei Xin's face coldly, secretly proud in his heart, and waited until Pei Xin was extremely annoyed before slowly saying: "If you really want to do it, it's not impossible. It's just that"

Pei Xin's eyes lit up immediately, and he hurriedly asked, "Just what?"

Seeing that the fish was hooked, Pei Songzhi couldn't help but curled his lips into a smile, leaned over and said in a low voice, "The man is not in Yunzhou now, he will come back in a few days, and I will give you news when he does. Blame uncle for not giving you a chance."
