Chapter 138 Good baby for people who know goods

Wu Hongwen is an old official and from the imperial examination. If he can make such a statement, he will naturally have a very high evaluation of Pei He. When Pei He heard this, he shook his head and said,

"It's too slow to advance to the imperial examination, and..."

He told the truth,

"The interpersonal communication in the officialdom is too tiring, and my nephew is cold-hearted and unwilling to explain it to others!"

It’s better to be the Jinyiwei. The ones you see most are not only colleagues, but also criminals. At that time, you only need to ask questions with a cold face, but there will be less trouble!

Wu Hongwen believed in his sincerity after hearing this. Once this cold-hearted person is moved, he is even more intense and sincere than others!

The two of them were having a great time talking inside, and Xiao Cheng was also happy to hear it outside. However, after standing for a long time, his feet couldn't stand it anymore. Seeing that it was getting late, he simply went over and knocked on the door.

"Master, it's already noon, so why not leave Mr. Pei for dinner!"

Wu Hongwen looked outside when he heard this, and then he realized that it had passed the meal. He responded immediately.

"That's true, please prepare your wife!"

Xiao Cheng responded happily,

"Okay!"

He hurried out to give instructions that Wu Hongwen not only kept Pei He for lunch, but also played chess in the garden for half a day in the afternoon. It was not until the sky got darker that he let Pei He leave the mansion.

Someone sent a message to Wu Xin'an, and Guan's mother heard it and said,

"Miss, it seems that the master is very satisfied with Mr. Pei..."

If you were not satisfied, you would be driven out of the mansion long ago, how could you keep someone to eat and play chess?

Wu Xin'an was not surprised. According to Pei He's brain, if he wants to like it, there will naturally be some ways!

Sure enough, the matchmaker Wang came to the house again the next day. This time, Wu Hongwen agreed to the marriage very readily. The matchmaker Wang went to report the good news to Pei He. Wu Xinan learned the news, but frowned. It was not until this time that she remembered that she had never asked about Pei He’s wealth, and whether she had any necessary items for weddings such as money to buy brides.

After thinking about it, he ordered Guan Mama,

"Mom, take out all my gold and silver and count it..."

Guan’s mother just thought she wanted to order her own dowry, and said with a smile,

"Miss is really anxious. It's too early to get a dowry..."

Wu Xinan shook his head and said,

"As far as I see, Pei He is probably married without any money, so I count my money first and send it to him!"

Half of the gold and silver were already his, so it was natural to send it to him now!

Guan Mama smiled,

"Oh! The eldest lady is still facing her husband before she gets married, but... with her talent like Mr. Pei, she is willing to pay any money!"

After saying that, I happily went to some silver. Soon after, I brought a sandalwood box back, which was full of silver notes and vouchers for depositing silver in the bank.

"Miss, your money is here!"

Wu Xinan opened it and used it in front of him. He bought a house at home and added items, and left about 20,000 taels. After sending Guan’s mother here, he went to lift the doghouse that Ah Huang put in his boudoir, moved the wooden board at the bottom of the doghouse, exposed the partition on the lower end, and took out the treasures hidden inside. These were four things that were made from the Japanese pirate leader Jun Fujiwara. They were all ten thousand years of cold jade under the sea, all a dead leaf, all a pill as big as a baby’s fist, and all a pair of sea beasts’ eyes.

Wu Xinan said in her heart,

"I can see these four things, except for Wannian Hanyu, I can see that they are valuable. I don't know what the other three are used for. It's a pity to keep them there. It's better to take this opportunity to give them to Pei He and let him see what he can do?"

Especially the pill, I don’t know what medicine it was, so I dare not take it randomly. He is a medical practitioner, so it’s just right for him to identify it!

He immediately packed the four things, divided the silver and put it on his body.

This room turned around and called Wang Yong to prepare horses. He left the house and went straight to the Beizhen Fushiya. Pei He got the letter and came out to see her. When he lifted the curtain and sat in. When the two met, Wu Xinan suddenly felt a little uncomfortable and dared not look at his eyes. He lowered his head and said in his heart.

"It is normal to think that he is a brother in front of him, but now that the window paper is pierced, I don't know how to deal with it!"

Seeing that she lowered her head and didn't say anything, Pei He didn't know how to deal with it for a while. The two were stunned for a while, Pei He asked,

"You...what are you looking for me?"

As soon as he said that, he immediately regretted it and said in his heart,

"I'm really stupid. Can't she come to find you if she has nothing to do? I'm afraid she will be annoyed when she asks this!"

He also guessed it according to the ordinary girl's mind, but Wu Xin'an was not that ordinary person. He breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and felt that he was finally looking for a topic. He hurriedly took out the burden he brought from his feet.

"It's just something to look for you!"

Put the bag on Pei He's hand,

"There are a few things here, and I don't know what it is for. You have to show me your time!"

Pei He heard this and wanted to open it, but Wu Xinan held his hand.

"Don't look at it now. Although I don't know what these things are for, I know they are very valuable. Take them back and close the door to take them down and take a look at them slowly!"

Pei He nodded, but took the opportunity to grab her hand with the backhand.

"An An..."

As soon as his fat little hand entered his palm, Pei He refused to let go. Wu Xin'an's face turned red and he did not dare to struggle hard, for fear that he would hurt him if he was too strong, so he let Pei He hold his hand and gently knead it.

"An An...I...I'm already preparing the bride price. After I'm ready, I...I invited a matchmaker to come to my door and formally propose marriage!"

Wu Xinan nodded, she was not shy when talking about this, and looked up at Pei He and said,

"I haven't asked you if you have any money. If you look at the preparation of those brides, you'll almost do it, and you don't have to spend too much money!"

Pei He replied,

"I don't have much money in my hand, but my master has money..."

Jin Baliang has practiced medicine for so many years, but his wealth is actually very rich. He only has one daughter under his knees. He got married early, and his husband's family is well-off and he doesn't need him to help him. He expects his disciples to support his old age, so his wealth belongs to his disciples. Liu Chongjiu has no children and no relatives and no reason, so his nephew will naturally help him get married. Pei He has no money, but the money for marrying a wife is more than enough.

When Pei He talked about the matter, Wu Xinan shook his head and said,

"We have money at home, so we don't need the master or uncle's money. They're still allowed to keep their money for retirement!"

When Pei He heard her say the word "we", he felt inexplicably sweet and nodded,

"An An is right. I have some money in my hand. Although I don't have much, it's enough to get it together. I just... I'm going to let you down!"

Wu Xin'an smiled mysteriously but didn't say much. The two of them held hands in the carriage and spoke for a while. Pei He then took the bag and got out of the carriage. He watched Wu Xin'an's carriage leave, and then turned around and went back.

Pei He returned to the house with his bag, sent the servant who served him. When he opened the bag, he saw the silver notes above. Seeing this, he was stunned. He remembered Wu Xinan's mysterious smile in the carriage, and immediately understood her thoughts. He knew that she was afraid that she would be embarrassed, so he specially sent the silver over.

Only she gave her back to her, but Pei He couldn't accept it. The man's real man had to pay the money for his wife to marry. What did he become?

After thinking about it for a while, I put the silver notes aside and opened the four wooden boxes. He was aware of the ten thousand-year-old Han Yu. He took it out and looked aside. He took the dead leaves in his hand and looked at them again and again. After searching in his memory for a long time, he suddenly remembered that in a book of strange seas, it seemed that he had seen this thing, so he hurriedly got up and went to the study room beside him. Sure enough, he found the strange seas in the bookshelf. He hurriedly looked through it, but he was stunned on the spot.

"It's really a thousand miles to find it..."

Pei He closed the book, said secretly in his heart, and shouted to the outside,

"Come, come and get a basin of water..."

The servant outside used a copper basin to fetch water in and sent the servant to leave. Pei He put the dead leaf into the water. He saw that the originally yellow and dry leaf immediately stretched out as soon as it entered the water, and quickly turned into a scale that was half a palm-sized, emitting a faint golden light. "It's indeed a dragon scale!"

Pei He's fair face was shrouded in a golden light. Seeing this, he shook his head and chuckled.

"The front sent people to search for dragon bones everywhere, but found nothing, but unexpectedly, I got it here in An'an!"

Then he frowned and suddenly said,

"I know!"

Where did An'an get the dragon scales? Of course, they obtained them from Junyi Fujiwara. Junyi Fujiwara comes from the East China Island Country. The chance of obtaining dragon scales is much greater than that of them in the inland. I think he brought this thing to the Central Plains to find an opportunity to present it to the emperor, but he didn't expect that it would fall into An'an's hands now.

Pei He took out the dragon scale from the basin, and the golden light of the dragon scales suddenly dissipated. When Pei He wiped it dry with a clean vegetation, the thing immediately shrank and converged into a dead leaf shape.

"It's a bit magical!"

Pei He put the dragon scale back into the box and went to see the two remaining things, both of which were elixirs sealed with wax. Pei He took a knife and gently scraped off a small piece of wax seal, revealing the black elixir inside. The medicine was indeed extraordinary. He only scratched out such a small bit, and immediately a strange fragrance filled the room.

Pei He put the pills to the tip of his nose and smelled them, and his expression moved.

"This pill is afraid it has a big background!"

This box was put into the box again. Looking at the pair of sea beast eyes, this time he didn't know the origin. He thought about it and hid the rest first, then put the two boxes in his arms, turned around to find Jin Baliang and Liu Chongjiu.

Pei He showed the pills for the two of them first. Jin Baliang smelled them first, then scraped off a little medicine skin with a knife and put it in his mouth to taste it. His eyes immediately became wide open.
