The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain

After Mr. Bai said this, he sat on the sofa very frankly.

He probably wasn't lying!

"Well... my mother-in-law is good at running the house, and my father-in-law can be like this..."

"It can be considered a harmonious family."

"You can make your ears free! Those scholar-bureaucrats are accustomed to marrying three or four concubines, but they may not be as relaxed as you, my father-in-law."

Bai Guizheng was saying something nice when he saw a beautiful woman who looked exactly like Bai Xiuzhu walking in at the door of the living room. She was about thirty years old and well maintained. She looked more dignified and more elegant than Bai Xiuzhu. Mature, beautiful and virtuous.

A frown and a smile, demure and elegant.

"this……"

"No wonder my father-in-law didn't marry another wife."

Bai Gui was stunned for a moment.

He looked back at Mr. Bai again.

Mr. Bai's gestures seemed to be saying, "There is no intention of admiration, but those who are happy in it don't know that the verbal and physical tribute is not as good as others."

"Is it Miwa?"

"Mother Liu just said that you and Xiuzhu are here. Mother Liu praised you for looking handsome. At first glance, you are indeed extraordinary."

Mrs. Bai came over and said hello with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I am Bai Meihe."

Bai Gui didn't know where to put his hands and feet for a moment. It was not that he had never seen beauties before, but in his expectation, his mother-in-law should be a middle-aged and old woman who would be easier to deal with. Instead, she would look like Tanabe. For someone around the same age as Ryuko, he was really at a loss as to what to do.

But he had seen the wind and waves after all. He took a deep breath, looked calm, and put on a modest smile.

"Hello mother-in-law!"

Just like he treated Mr. Bai, he also bowed to Mrs. Bai.

When meeting someone with a gift for the first time, the gift must be more severe.

"What was your son-in-law talking about just now?"

Mrs. Bai sat elegantly on the cashmere sofa and asked.

"Nothing said."

"Just some commonplace gossip."

Mr. Bai took a cigar, lit it, took a puff and said.

It was really hard for the father-in-law and father-in-law to talk about what they just said. Although they said nothing shameful, it was always hard to comment on the mother-in-law in front of the parties involved.

Mrs. Bai glanced at Mr. Bai with her beautiful eyes, knowing that Mr. Bai was not telling the truth, but she couldn't help but not give him face at this time and asked. She raised the topic again, "Meihe, you and Xiuzhu just came to Amei Ken Country. It’s been a long journey, and we haven’t seen Xiuzhu in many years. If time is not urgent to go to Yale University, why don’t you two stay and spend more time with us.”

"New Haven is not far from New York. If you drive, you can get there in half a day."

"I'm going to study at Yale University, so it's hard to take Xiuzhu with me. The reason why I go to Yale University to study is that I want Xiuzhu to stay with my father-in-law temporarily. If you don't mind it..."

Bai Gui pondered for a while and then said.

The distance between New Haven, a small town where Yale University is located, and New York is 111 kilometers, and the maximum speed of cars at this moment is 40 kilometers. If you drive 40 kilometers faster, the cars of this era cannot hold the roof, but drive slower. , with a speed of 20 kilometers per hour, you can reach New York State in about five hours.

Now that Bai Xiuzhu is married and obeys her husband, it is indeed not a big deal for the married daughter to live in her parents' house. It is okay to live in it for a short time, but it is not interesting to live in it for a long time. Therefore, he needs to deal with this matter first. Discuss with Mr. Bai and his wife.

"Xiuzhu is our daughter, there is nothing to dislike about her."

"That's right. If you go to Yale University to study, it will be inconvenient to bring Xiuzhu with you. Xiuzhu is boring in New Haven, so you might as well stay with us at home."

Mrs. Bai nodded lightly and said.

This makes sense.

They also want to keep Bai Xiuzhu by their side for a long time.

Poor and humble couples have everything to suffer from. When they have no money, their parents-in-law feel disgusted. One more person means more mouths to eat. But for wealthy families, they don’t have to worry too much about minor living expenses, so they look harmonious.

"Barring nothing unexpected, I drive up from New Haven twice a week."

"When the time comes... I ask my father-in-law and mother-in-law to forgive me for disturbing you."

Bai Gui breathed a sigh of relief and said.

For the sake of her studies, she can only ignore Bai Xiuzhu for the time being.

Mr. and Mrs. Bai have nothing to do with themselves.

This house is so big, and there are only two of them, so it is inevitably quite lonely. Now the son-in-law leaves his own daughter with him and comes here twice a week. Is there anything he is not satisfied with?

Liu Ma ordered a meal at the restaurant.

There are dedicated chartered drivers who come to deliver food to your door.

The dishes are dazzling.

It feels dizzying.

"This is a cook from Guangdong Province. Most of the people who go to foreign countries are from coastal provinces. The taste is much lighter than that in the interior. If Meihe is not used to it, I will ask the cook to make it for you differently."

“The restaurants in Chinatown mostly serve Cantonese and Fujian cuisine.”

Mrs. Bai said as the group entered the dining table.

It is a well-known fact that people from inland provinces tend to have a heavy taste, while Cantonese food has a lighter taste.

"I'm not picky about food, and I'm used to Cantonese food."

“You can also eat Japanese vegetables well.”

Bai Gui took a small bite of the white porridge.

This porridge has rich flavors, and he can taste a series of ingredients such as shrimps and scallops.

A very thoughtful bowl of porridge.

For example, the cuisine of Qin Province is a little rougher than the cuisine of Guangdong Province. White porridge is really just white porridge.

"It's good that you're not picky about food, Meihe."

Mrs. Bai nodded.

At this moment, Bai Gui took off his suit jacket, and you could see at a glance that he had a strong body, which obviously did not look like a body for a picky eater. And she already knew that Bai Guiyun was Wen Yunwu.

Yunwen Yunwu is a big plus.

"Meihe, why don't you take me to Yale University?" Bai Xiuzhu frowned. She had just gone upstairs to tidy up her former boudoir. She didn't expect that Bai Gui had already settled this matter with her parents, which made her a little dissatisfied. , although this decision is very reasonable, it is inevitable to ask.

"How can I concentrate on my studies when I'm with you all day?"

Bai Gui raised his eyebrows and said.

"What you're saying is that you can't concentrate on your studies when you're with me."

"Can I still stop you from studying..."

Bai Xiuzhu was talking when her face suddenly turned red, she spat lightly, and then said nothing more.

Although Bai Gui left her in New York State, she was very reluctant to leave, but after thinking about it, coming here twice a week was not too much. And if she wanted to see Bai Gui, she could also go there by car, and the distance was not long.

…

Five days passed.

Bai Guicai set off from New York State to New Haven, Connecticut.

He bought a Ford Model T.

At the industrial level of this era, although the Ford Model T was relatively cheap among its contemporaries, its low price did not mean that it was of poor quality. Rather, it was because Ford had started assembly line production, which led to cost reductions and increased production, leading to price drops.

Similarly, Bai Gui doesn't want to be too ostentatious, so a Ford car is very suitable.

About five hours or so.

He arrived in New Haven.

New Haven is a town that grew out of a railroad crossing and is full of industrial elements. Along both sides of the railway and around the town, there are many bars and open-air restaurants.

But after passing through the bustling town of New Haven, we arrived at the gate of Yale University.

It was much quieter in vain.

Yale University is a "professor-run school" and the board of directors is not specifically involved in school management. There is a popular saying in Kenya: "Princeton's directors are in charge, Harvard's president is in charge, and Yale's professors are in charge."

This is why Bai Gui chose Yale University.

Not only because of Bai Xiuzhu's family, but also because Yale University's professors govern the school, which is similar to Japan's high school student self-governance system. One is academic speaking, and the other is students speaking. It is much better than facing the board of directors and businessmen who only care about interests. .

The most important subjects at Yale University are social sciences, humanities, and life sciences. The three most popular majors are biology, history, and economics. Yale University's history program ranks among the top three in the United States.

Arrive at the Academic Affairs Office.

With an invitation from Yale University, his reporting went smoothly.

"This is Professor James. He is a professor who specializes in Far Eastern history."

"Mr Bai, Professor James is willing to be your graduate tutor. What do you think? Tell us and we will try our best to meet your requirements..."

The director of the Education Department introduced Bai Gui.

Although all the history professors at Yale University are top students in history, Bai Gui is not bad either. Among the professors at Yale University, few can write as profound a book as "Guns, Germs, and Steel" Even if there are books, it is impossible to complete such works like Bai Gui at the undergraduate level.

"Mr. Bai, I have read three books written by you, "The Qin Empire", "Guns, Germs, Steel", and "Chrysanthemums and Swords". I admire your research on the history of the Far East in these three books. Yale also needs people like you to fill the gaps in Far Eastern history.”

"Of course, although I am a professor who specializes in the history of the Far East, I also know the history of all countries very well."

"I really hope you can be my graduate student."

Professor James was about sixty years old, with white hair and a curly beard. He was wearing a Puritan dress and spoke solemnly to Bai Gui.

Generally, graduate students go to beg professors to take them in.

But when it comes to Bai Gui's level, the professor doesn't just ask for it, but he also fights for it.

They all complement each other.

One is the love for talents, everyone wants to teach good students, and the other is that students become famous, which is of great benefit to them. Bai Gui now has a good reputation in various countries. Once he becomes a professor, his net worth will not only double, but it will inevitably add a bit of glory.

"I have long admired Professor James."

"Professor James's teaching level is worthy of recognition and recognition by students. I am willing to become a student of Professor James."

Bai Gui bowed slightly and saluted.

When he was in Japan, he had already inquired about professors in the History Department of Yale University. Although Professor James is not the most powerful and famous history professor, he is still ranked first at Yale. In addition... it is understandable to consider the reputation of the teacher as to who he is going to be a disciple of, but as long as a really good student, even an ordinary professor, can dazzle him.

For me, now I am just looking for a springboard and using the connections at Yale University. As for which professor it is, it is not too important.
