The Multiverse Starting from White Deer Plain

About thirty miles north of Jiangjunzhai, there is a village called Tianjia Shizi. Google search reading

Tian Xiao'e's home is here.

When we arrived at Jiangjunzhai, we were actually not far from the provincial capital. It's about a hundred miles away, but the road was covered in snow before, making it difficult to walk. The snow on the official road has almost been cleared now. If we walk faster, we can reach the provincial capital in one day.

Bai Gui was halfway along the road and planned to say goodbye to the caravan for a while.

First, he is taking Tian Xiao'e with him now. Even if Tian Xiucai doesn't think much of this daughter and pushes her into the pit of fire, no matter what happens, he still has to go to the Tian family to tell Tian Xiucai. Secondly, it was not easy for him to show up in the city as he followed the caravan. After all, the caravan had business with the Wu Mansion. The Wu Mansion would definitely know about it when entering the city, and it would have to delay some time...

Besides, he still had to worry about Wu Huaixian's marriage, so he couldn't disturb the Wu family too early.

"Ms. Bai, let's make an agreement to meet in the provincial capital three days later..."

"When the time comes, I will host a banquet at Chang'an Restaurant to thank Mr. Bai."

"I hope Mr. Bai will not refuse."

The caravan manager reined in the reins and the horse under his crotch barked a few times. Then he cupped his hands and said to Bai Gui, who also stopped the horse.

Bai Gui said goodbye.

He had to come and see him off for a while.

Come and say goodbye.

"You're welcome, Manager Zhang. I will definitely attend the banquet in three days."

Bai Gui smiled.

The caravan steward smiled, and then shouted to the handlebar of the carriage: "Er Shuanzi, remember to take good care of Mr. Bai. If you have any orders, you will be given snacks."

The second bolt is the handlebar type of the caravan, which is specially used to drive the car.

He was sitting on the shaft of the car, and with a muffled voice, he agreed.

Manager Zhang then patted his horse, spurred it on, and started chasing the caravan again.

Bai Gui rode a horse and took Tian Xiao'e's carriage with him. He hurried slowly and hurriedly. When it was almost dark, he followed Tian Xiao'e's memory and arrived at Tianjia Shizi.

…

Tianjia Alley.

In front of Tian Xiucai's house.

It is not difficult to find out about Tian Xiucai's family. Scholarships are still very rare. A village may not produce a scholar for a hundred years. Bai Gui found a random person to inquire about, then rode a horse and arrived here.

Asking about his residence this time was different from asking for directions at the Normal School in the provincial capital a few years ago.

Judging from his clothes and riding a horse, most people would not dare to give random directions and would not be able to afford the crime.

"Xiao'e, what are you doing?"

Tian Xiao'e got off the carriage and knocked on the door. After knocking on the door, a middle-aged woman came out. She was wearing a cloth skirt and a jade hairpin. She looked very haggard. She must have been spinning thread just now. There were traces of spinning thread left when throwing the shuttle in her hand.

"Mom, this is Mr. Bai, the Mr. Sanyuan who came back from studying in Japan four years ago."

"He wanted me and redeemed me from Guo Juren..."

She held the scholar lady's arm and smiled lightly,

"What?"

"It was Mr. Bai who took you in."

The scholar lady had already guessed that when she saw the man on the white horse coming back with his daughter, there must be something secret that could not be concealed. However, even though she had expected this, she did not expect that Bai Gui was the scholar husband who had returned from studying in Japan.

She couldn't help but look happy.

Although Tian Xiucai married Tian Xiao'e to Guo Juren as a concubine, she finally agreed, but as a mother, she still regretted her daughter in her heart. Now that she can be redeemed by a young and knowledgeable person, it is natural. It's a good thing, not to mention that those who can study abroad will definitely have no shortage of money in their hands, and they will be very happy to climb high branches.

"Let's go into the house, let's go in together."

The scholar lady said quickly.

When she walked in, she met Tian Xiucai. Tian Xiucai looked sour and rotten. His Confucian shirt was washed white and had a few patches. He had a goat's beard and the long braid at the back was not cut off.

"What's the noise at the door?"

Tian Xiucai's family is narrow, with only a few tile-roofed houses. Zhuangzi is good, but it can only be considered good, and it is difficult to compare with Caidong's family. So he could only see Tian Xiao'e who had just stepped across the threshold, so he frowned slightly and asked.

It is common for married wives to go home to visit their relatives. However, concubines who were married off and maids who were sold were basically not allowed to go out alone. They could only visit relatives and go home with the permission of their master.

The scholar lady told Tian Xiucai what Tian Xiao'e said just now.

"It's my friend Bai. When my friend Bai comes to my humble home, I may not be able to welcome you from afar, but sometimes I may not be able to welcome you from afar..."

Tian Xiucai put on a smile and greeted.

Scholars call each other "friends", so it is etiquette for him to call Bai Gui his friend.

After all, he is different from Guo Juren. Guo Juren is a martial artist, so he calls Bai Gui Xianggong Bai. However, like Bai Gui, he is a literary scholar, so it is more appropriate to call him a friend.

"Friend Tian..."

Bai Gui looked a little strange.

He certainly knew the mutual honorifics among scholars. But after he won the small three yuan, he went to study abroad not long after. Even when he was in the provincial capital, all he saw were close elders, and it was impossible for him to treat them as friends. After returning to China, Xunqing disappeared. Scholar was just an identity of his, and no one really called him friends...

Tian Xiucai was the first person to call him Bai Jiyou.

In addition... although he didn't touch Tian Xiao'e very much, in terms of status... that's right, even if he is the concubine's biological parents, he does not need to call her by any honorific title. It is common sense to treat her as an equal.

"Friend Bai, please come in."

"I have admired your name for a long time."

Tian Xiucai had heard of Bai Gui's fame a long time ago. The total number of scholars near the provincial capital was only six to seven hundred. How could he not have heard of Bai Gui's reputation? Besides, the total number of people studying in the East in Qin Province in more than ten years does not exceed fifty. Those who are government-sponsored to study abroad and are scholars are even rarer.

"Whatever the matter is, friend Tian, ​​don't be restrained. Just do whatever comes your way..."

The strange look on Bai Gui's face flashed away, and then he said with emotion.

When he came to Tianjia Shizi, he thought about many scenarios of meeting Tian Xiucai, but he did not expect this scenario to appear.

Tian Xiucai invited him to his study.

"This is my humble work just now. I would like to ask my friend Bai to appreciate it."

He held the manuscript and said.

"Batagu?"

Bai Gui originally thought it was some poetry, but when he saw that it was written on the white paper, he frowned secretly.

There is nothing wrong with writing eight-part essays. Eight-legged essays are just a form of writing. He has also practiced eight-legged essays, so he will not deliberately belittle them. Besides, as long as he is familiar with eight-legged essays, he can also understand some poems. He has almost mastered this aspect in middle school.

But now that Tian Xiucai took out the eight-part manuscript and asked him to taste it, it seemed a bit stale.

After all, it was the first time we met, and we could still be entertained by talking about some poetry.

However, this small thought only passed through his mind and he did not say it out loud. He continued to read Tian Xiucai's manuscript.

“The article is above average!”

Bai Gui glanced at it a few times,

This article is well written, with gorgeous rhetoric.

If future college entrance examination essays can reach this level, they will definitely get full marks. Tian Xiucai still has the skills.

However, the content of the article is inevitably a lot empty. It does not mean that there are fewer references, but the article must be in line with the times and be full of words without meaning.
