The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain

The half-day banquet was full of wine and meat. Google search reading

The flowing water banquet in Bailu Village is planned to be held for three days. No matter which village you are from, or from other places, you can just say hello, and you can sit down and have a delicious meal, which will make you full.

This is also due to the fact that Bailu Village has become a lot richer in the past six months.

Gourd and chicken restaurants are popping up all over Qin Province, so the family has a lot of spare money. This banquet can only use a few pigs. We also have some chicken, duck and fish at home. It doesn't cost much, and the cooks are also from the village. , they are used to making this kind of flowing water mat.

As the sun went down, there was still a lot of noise at the table.

"Dad, let's go to Xujiayuan."

Bai Gui took the horse and said.

Xujiayuan is not far from Bailu Village. It is located in Nanyuan of Bailuyuan. Including the round trip distance on horseback, it takes at most two quarters of an hour. You can also rush back when it gets dark.

Now is the busy season of summer again, which is different from winter.

Even at night, it is very bright. The moonlight shines down, and it is completely white. You can also see people harvesting wheat in the dark.

Bai Youde patted the dust on his silk clothes and said, "Okay, you should thank Mr. Xu. Without Mr. Xu, you wouldn't be here today. This gift has been prepared for you."

His speech and conversation were very different from those of the long-term workers in the past.

Calm and confident.

Bai Gui nodded. He actually rushed back from the provincial capital and brought some gifts, but not many, they were all relatively valuable things. This time I have to pay my respects to my mentor, and I have to go with a big package and a small package.

Big and small bags, this is for outsiders to see.

No matter how expensive the gift is, if it is not much, someone will spread rumors that he does not respect his teacher's kindness. The hospital examination has been settled, but if the students have bad moral character, they will also be expelled.

Bai Youde prepared a lot of gifts, including freshly slaughtered live chickens and ducks, bacon stored for the New Year, and some more precious ink ingots and other literati supplies, which shows the careful preparation.

Also, after he passed the imperial examination, his reputation as a scholar was already certain, so it was understandable that he should prepare early.

There were so many gifts prepared that he couldn't take them all. Besides, Xu Jiayuan was also a stranger, so an uncle from the same village rode with him.

He and his uncle arrived at Xujiayuan before the sun set.

Xujiayuan is similar to Bailu Village, with earth-yellow courtyard walls and a few families lighting candles. Xu Xiucai's home is also easy to find. Looking at the rows of houses, you can see which ones are built with blue bricks.

The wooden door painted with tung oil was somewhat mottled, and a piece of the copper ring on the animal's head was missing.

Banging on the door.

"who?"

A woman's voice came, and her voice sounded a bit young. After opening the door, I saw her true appearance.

She is about 20 years old, comely, but because she took care of the housework and married young, she looks like she is in her thirties or forties. She has sideburns, blue wide sleeves with embroidered flowers, and trousers with leggings and small feet.

Bai Gui glanced at it and lowered his head, guessing that it should be Xu Xiucai's inner room. Xu Xiucai passed the scholar examination in his early years, but never married. Later, he failed in many examinations, so his marriage was delayed and he married late.

Judging from her skin color, she is fair and has small feet. She belongs to a wealthy family in the countryside.

It's not an grievance, at least the reputation of being a scholar is still very valuable, and the threshold for marrying a wife and being a matchmaker will be exceeded.

"Hello, Master, I am Bai Gui from Bailu Village. I am the first to win three yuan in the middle school entrance exam this time. I come to thank my mentor!"

He spoke in Mandarin and also pointed out his identity.

It's better to reveal your identity as early as possible to avoid embarrassing situations like flattery and contempt for others, dislike of the poor and love of the rich. Almost everyone is the master of what to eat, it's just a matter of severity.

The beginning of wearing clothes is to distinguish one’s identity.

"The head of the case? Three yuan?" Mrs. Xu Liu looked shocked for a while, then quickly blinked and looked at the young man in front of her. Although the clothes were not particularly luxurious, it could be seen that he was not an ordinary person, and his bearing was It was also extraordinary. Different from the locals, she immediately believed it 80% of the time. No one would make such a joke.

In addition, it is also possible to become a teacher in Bailu Village.

Mrs. Xu Liu smiled and said, "Go and sit in the room. I'll invite your husband right away."

The crack in the door was wide, and she could see two horses at the foot of the steps, as well as gifts on their backs. There were countless gifts piled up on them. Although most of them were wrapped in oil paper, they were estimated to be quite valuable, at least. A dozen taels of silver as a base.

However, Mrs. Xu Liu has also seen some things in the world, so she won't rush to her immediately.

Go inside.

The Xu family has a two-entry courtyard, which is a little more miserable than the Bai family and the Lu family in Bailu Village. Some of the furnishings in the house have not been repaired for many years, but there is no shortage of food and drink inside and outside the house.

The old man of the Xu family came quickly and was full of energy. He asked Bai Gui to take a seat and chatted with him for a while.

During this period, Mrs. Xu Liu served several plates of stir-fried dishes, including meat and vegetables.

"It's his blessing to be able to teach you as a student." Mr. Xu smoked a dry cigarette, smashed it in his mouth, and blew out smoke rings with a smile on his face.

"You're welcome, sir. This is all your hard work."

Bai Gui replied.

At this time, Bai Gui knew that Xu Xiucai had not told his family about the results of his first two exams. He guessed that Xu Xiucai had some conflicts with his family. This was normal. The scholar who worked hard to provide for him taught, even if The income is higher than that of ordinary people, but it is inevitable that I feel unhappy.

Soon, Xu Xiucai hurried back.

"The student has met his mentor."

Bai Gui lifted up his robe and knelt down on the ground, kowtowing, regardless of whether the ground was in a hurry.

Along the way, if it hadn't been for Xu Xiucai's small efforts, no matter how amazing his talent was, he would not have been able to successfully complete his goal at this time. If a person is powerful, he will receive all kindness. But the goodwill at the beginning is often the most precious.

Xu Xiucai had a smile on his face, and Bai Gui bowed to him when he saw him, which really gave him enough face.

"Okay, okay!"

"Get up quickly, the ground is cold, be careful of moisture."

he said hurriedly.

Bai Gui did not get up. He still knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Xu Xiucai again: "The student is now nearly seventeen years old and will go to Japan in the near future. However, he has not been crowned or given a title. I am here today. Please give me your best wishes." Character."

Originally, he planned to let Mr. Zhu or General Zhang choose the words for him.

Picking the word is usually done by getting close to the elders.

By taking the word, there will be a bit more intimacy invisibly.

But he thought of Xu Xiucai. People cannot forget some things for personal gain, and do something but not do something. His mentor was Xu Xiucai, and this cannot be changed.

"Okay..." Xu Xiucai was not only happy now, but also had tears in his eyes. He wiped them away gently so that no one could see this scene. As Bai Gui's Xiao Sanyuan, there are too many people he can look for if he wants to get the word, but being able to look for him means something else.
