Chapter 40 He doesn't seem to know that he is a genius [Minor revision]



Do you?

Pei Che likes her?

The sisters were so sure that she almost believed it.

Although he didn't get any substantial suggestions, Jiang Shiyuan liked the atmosphere here very much. When he walked in, he felt like he had walked into a warm big family.

“This place is really special.”

Pei Zanxue said: "I know you will like this place. This is a women's charity run by Shopkeeper Liu. It used to be a bookstore. Shopkeeper Liu's husband left it to her before he died."

Pei Zanxue pointed at the round-faced girl who had been very enthusiastic just now and introduced her.

"Because she had to support her younger brother, Shopkeeper Liu was sold to a pimp by her biological father when she was young. She wandered around and suffered a lot since she was a child. When she was fifteen, she met her mistress. Shopkeeper Liu's mistress rescued her from the pimp and taught her how to count and read..."

Jiang Shiyuan's heart suddenly moved.

To some extent, Pei Che taught her arithmetic and literacy.

Ten years ago——

Pei Che confiscated her cat, so she climbed over the wall to look for the cat, but accidentally knocked over the light in the study and burned half of it.

The cat didn't come back, so Jiang Shi was willing to sell himself as a slave and serve Pei Che as a book boy.

Pei Che despised it.

She remembered that he looked at the dark study with an unpleasant expression, and with one word, he drove her out along with the cat.

But Jiang Shi was willing to love, she was willing to use her life to pay off the debt.

Pei Che agreed, and Jiang Shiyuan stopped making trouble and took the cat to his school. He talked and the cat talked, and she talked. She also stuffed the handkerchiefs and sachets of the girls who admired him into his sleeves and tucked them into his books.

She would do whatever others dared not to do.

Pei Che couldn't bear it anymore and confiscated her cat again.

And accepted her compensation plan.

She remembered that day, Pei Che had a dark face, holding the cat in one hand and her collar in the other, and took them back to his villa.

From that day on, Jiang Shiyuan, the little laborer, served Pei Che tea and water, swept the floor, wiped the table, watered the flowers and weeded after school.

Jiang Shiyuan was afraid of hardship, afraid of being assigned tasks, and most of all, afraid of doing homework.

Because every time she did her homework, Pei Che would criticize her mercilessly.

When I'm in a good mood, I'll give her one word: "Stupid."

When I am in a good mood, I will say two words: "rotten wood".

Sometimes when he got so angry, he would simply grab her hand and write for her angrily.

Jiang Shiyuan had never seen anyone as impatient as Pei Che.

He seemed to know that he was a genius, and the 'rotten wood' in front of him was just an ordinary person - an ordinary child of only 18 years old.

Who can be like him, knowing the answer at a glance and memorizing it after reading it once?

Does he know that he is a bad teacher in Luming Academy?

Everyone just fawned on him because he was the top scholar.

Pei Zanxue continued to speak, and Jiang Shiyuan withdrew his thoughts.

"When Shopkeeper Liu was ten years old, she was already able to take charge of her own affairs. Her husband asked her if she wanted to go out and try her luck alone, or stay with him and try a simple life?"

"Shopkeeper Liu chose to stay and lived a long and happy life." Pei Zanxue sighed, "They were married for six years, and her husband died of illness."

"Manager Liu spent some time in this bookstore in a daze. Later, she thought of doing something special... so she set up a charity in this bookstore to take in homeless girls, just like her husband took her in back then."

I see.

After listening to this, Jiang Shiyuan looked at Manager Liu and felt a little sad.

Shopkeeper Liu's daughter, Jun Ding, is an extremely gentle man.

Pei Che's face appeared in front of Jiang Shiyuan's eyes.

Although Pei Xiaozi is strict and impatient, he will build snow for her on snowy days...

Make a dad, a mom, and then a little girl, holding a little cat in her arms.

Jiang Shiyuan likes this place very much. It makes her feel peaceful.

"Zhanxue, how did you find this place?" She was so familiar with the story of Shopkeeper Liu.

"Well..."

Pei Zanxue shook her head and was about to answer when suddenly there was a bang -

The door of the bookstore was suddenly pushed open from the outside, and a group of officers armed with swords rushed in aggressively.

Wangxian Tower.

In the private room of the building, the probing continued, but after three rounds of drinks, everyone took turns to ask indirect questions, but failed to get any useful information from Master Pei.

They are used to it.

If Pei Che did not have such determination, he would have become a close minister to the emperor.

When everyone had finished talking, the Minister of Rites finally raised his glass and toasted to Pei Che.

"Master Taifu, I offer you a toast. I heard that you are getting married soon, so I would like to congratulate you first."

He was just being polite and didn't expect Master Pei to appreciate it.

But Pei Che, who had not touched the cup the whole day, picked up the cup and toasted back: "Thank you, Mr. Zhang."

Minister Zhang was flattered and asked hurriedly, "Do you know whose daughter the Grand Tutor is going to marry?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone at the table pricked up their ears curiously.

Although it is difficult to find out the emperor's intention from Master Pei, it is quite interesting to listen to Master Pei's private affairs.

Who would have known that this great Buddha was famous for his purity of mind and desires, and that he did not even have a maidservant to accompany him in his residence.

They were very curious about which girl was so capable that she could bring Master Pei down to earth.

As everyone was thinking about it, they heard Pei Che's steady voice, every word was clear: "The daughter of the general's mansion."

There was a sudden silence at the table.

Those who were quick-witted responded and their eyes widened.

The General’s Mansion? What about Concubine Jiang's mother's family?

If Master Pei marries Ms. Jiang, does that imply that the Pei family is on the side of the third prince?

Everyone looked at Pei Che excitedly. This was a hint, a revelation that had never been more obvious.

Pei Che looked around at the crowd, put down his wine glass, and said slowly and hurriedly: "Thank you for the hospitality. Let's stop here for today. When Pei gets married next month, I will bring my beloved wife to entertain you all."

After saying that, Pei Che stood up, left the room, and went downstairs.

He had just left the restaurant and was about to get on the car when Pei Zanxue, dressed in men's clothing, suddenly ran over from a distance and cried to him, "Uncle, it's okay. My aunt has been arrested by the officials."
