The heavens from Bailuyuan

Chapter 239
"Bao'er, if you praise your brother so much, your brother will be ashamed..."

Bai Gui couldn't help shaking his head and smiling contentedly.

At this moment, he suddenly felt that the one thing he had done since the road was blocked by heavy snow was worth doing.People pursue fame and wealth all their lives.He is no exception. He likes fame and fortune. The prosperity of the world is for profit, and the world's hustle and bustle is for profit.

Now, after doing things, I can get the affirmation and approval of others, and I feel comfortable in my heart.

If the fame is not manifested, is it a ghost after death? !

If the reputation of doing good deeds is not publicized, although there will be unknown people who continue to carry on with heavy burdens, it is inevitable that there will be fewer and fewer such people until they become cold-hearted.

The world of great harmony mentioned by Confucius is absolutely indispensable for Zigong to redeem people and Zilu to receive cattle.

The two women talked until late at night.

Bai Gui listened to it for a while, but he was not interested in listening any more. It would be immoral to eavesdrop on other people's secrets.

It's just that he was worried that the two of them wouldn't get along and would leave hidden dangers, so he secretly listened to the corner for a while, but now that the relationship between the two is considered to be good, it makes no sense to listen again.

"Come on, I'll take you to the girls' school."

Early the next morning, Bai Gui was waiting at the door, saw Liu Bao'er coming out, and said.

This world is still a little unstable. If a woman goes out alone, it is not safe.It's better if the distance is closer, but Yage Girls' School is undoubtedly far away from Shuyuan Street, so he has to send it off in person.

In addition, it was also on the way. He made an appointment with Guanshi Zhang to meet at Chang'an Restaurant three days later.

Chang'an Restaurant is just along the road.

"Well, thank you, brother."

Liu Baoer smiled.

Not long after, Bai Gui sent Liu Baoer to Yage Girls' School.

Both of them feel that the brother-sister relationship has increased a lot, and it is no longer the strange and alienated feeling before.

Feelings... are all enhanced in small and inconspicuous things.

Bai Gui's actions this time also have such intentions.

……

Chang'an Restaurant.

On the second floor, box No. [-].

"Thank you, Mr. Bai, for your kindness this time, for being willing to come to the banquet."

Guanshi Zhang was very happy to see Bai Gui. Although he is a respectable person and has a good reputation in Chang'an City, compared with Bai Gui, he is on a much lower level. It is really impressive for a person like Bai Gui to be able to attend the banquet on time. It gave him a lot of face.

Generally speaking, the bigger the brand is, the less punctual it is.

"Guan Zhang is being polite."

"I would also like to thank Guanshi Zhang for taking care of me along the way. If it weren't for Guanshi Zhang taking care of me, I wouldn't be able to return to Qin Province so easily."

Bai Gui replied.

There are also many caravan chiefs in the box, as well as Zhang Guanshi's boss and others.

Toast him one by one.

These people didn't ask for anything from him, and they just wanted to make friends with him by hosting a banquet.After all, it's the first time we meet, if we are not familiar with each other, it will inevitably hurt our face to talk about some things, and we can only talk about some things after we get familiar with each other...

Good fate, just leave a good fate.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

"Patriarch Zhang, I don't know that our previous Xuezheng was the daughter of Chen Xuezheng's family. Are you still studying in Qin Province? You know, Wu Huaixian was engaged to her, and I brought some letters from him when I came back. Meet and teach Miss Chen..."

After talking a lot with Patriarch Zhang, Bai Gui pretended not to mention this incident.

The owner of the Zhang family runs some leather goods business and cooperates with the Wu family.

Regarding Wu Huaixian's marriage, Patriarch Zhang was an outsider, so Bai Gui asked Patriarch Zhang for advice, and there was no future trouble.

"Miss Chen..., Miss Chen is in Chang'an recently..."

"After all, according to the schedule, Young Master Wu is about to return from overseas, and Chen Xuezheng's family is from Sichuan Province. He is afraid of delaying the marriage, so Ms. Chen still stays in Chang'an and goes to the Wu Mansion from time to time..."

Master Zhang didn't take it seriously, and said with a smile.

The Wu Mansion is the backbone of Qin Province's business, and some business matters cannot be bypassed by the Wu Mansion, so businessmen like them will secretly inquire about the Wu Mansion's activities.

This is something done in private!

Ordinary people, Master Zhang would rather wave his hands and say he doesn't know, for fear of trouble.

However, he had the idea of ​​flattering Bai Gui's connection in his heart, so he told the truth.

In addition, the news of Ms. Chen's coming and going to the Wu Mansion is not considered a secret matter, just tell it if you say it, and you can get a small favor.

Cost-effective!

When Bai Gui heard this, his hidden worries were eliminated.

Since Ms. Chen is under Zhou Ying's nose, her personality shouldn't change too much.

The errand he should have been able to complete satisfactorily.

After the welcome banquet.

"Don't worry, Mr. Bai, I have already made arrangements for Mr. Bai. When Mr. Bai returns to his hometown, I will specially send someone to see you off."

Master Zhang patted his chest and assured.

Bai Xiuzhu bought a few carts of gifts, but this is Bai Xiuzhu's, so it's clear.But Bai Gui had a lot of relatives and friends in Zishui County, so he couldn't go back empty-handed, he had to buy some gifts in the provincial capital first, and then return home after finishing.

One thing for nothing!
Since his belongings were still in the Zhang family's caravan when he returned from Yanjing, it's no big deal to bother him again.

Coming out of Chang'an Restaurant, Bai Guima didn't stop, and sent invitations to the Wu Mansion.

Zhou Ying entertained.

I also met Ms. Chen, the daughter of Xuezheng.

The appearance is still a bit mediocre, not very brilliant, but the temperament is very good, as if he has read a lot of poetry and books.

"This is a letter from Brother Huaixian. I was detained in Yanjing for many days, but I wasted a lot of time. Please don't blame Mrs. Wu and Ms. Chen."

Bai Gui took out Wu Huaixian's letter, handed it to the two of them, and said.

This letter was written by him after discussing with Wu Huaixian and Liu Mingda. The content in it is not important, the main reason is to meet with each other and make a judgment.

"What did Mei tell you..."

"If Huaixian had given me a urgent letter home, it would have been delivered by post a long time ago. It's all just chatting. It doesn't matter if it's earlier or later."

Zhou Ying opened the letter, looked at it, and smiled.

Although it is possible to send letters back from Dongying, the family letters are worth ten thousand gold, and the postal fees are inevitably expensive. Waste money.

Similarly, sending letters comes second.

The main reason is that Bai Gui came back in person, Zhou Ying can directly ask Bai Gui and Wu Huaixian how he is doing recently.

"Brother Huaixian has been studying hard in Dongyang. A few years ago, he was transferred from self-financed to an official student. You know this, Mrs. Wu. Later...Brother Huaixian joined Professor Sato's school..."

Bai Gui said.

He was right. Wu Huaixian and Liu Mingda had been studying hard in Dongying. Of course, they were also obsessed with women. They were young and admired, and they were not short of money. They were all in business...

But good news but not bad news.

If he said that Wu Huai had sex with prostitutes first, he would not give Mrs. Wu face, make her unable to step down, and disregard the morality of brothers.

The only one who loses money is Xuezheng Qianjin.

But... there is no way to have the best of both worlds.If he tells the truth, the Wu family will not be able to spare him first, and the daughter of the Xuezheng may not take him well. Maybe he will ask him why this friend did not dissuade him. When he and Wu Huaixian are inseparable in the future, they may still despise him. .

Persuade reconciliation but not division.

The lesser of two evils!
Xuezheng Qianjin has no friendship with him.

During the period when he was abroad, the Wu family took good care of Bailu Village in terms of business, and he had to remember these kindnesses.

"Huai Xian can study hard, it's not in vain for me to send him to study abroad..."

Zhou Ying nodded slightly, and then said.

Say goodbye.

The Wu Manor planned to hold a banquet for Bai Gui, but Bai Gui kept pestering Wu Huaixian about Wu Huaixian's recent situation because of his daughter in education and politics. During the discussion, he would inevitably mention whether Wu Huaixian was playing tricks in Dongying, and whether he had a crush on any girl. It was difficult for Bai Gui to answer, so after a few words of evasion, he used the excuse that he slipped away.

Anyway, based on the relationship between him and Wu Huaixian, such a trivial matter will not cause any rift with the Wu family.

Besides, Zhou Ying has gone through many hardships and has a delicate mind. She can guess the reason why Bai Gui left in a hurry.

……

I stayed in the provincial capital for about six or seven days.

Zhou Yuan and others also completed the final exam and the final exam.

"I plan to apply for the Shanxi University Hall. It will be closer to home, and I will be able to come back when the time comes. And you should remember, Brother Meihe, the priest of Dun Chongli. He has old relationships with you and the Wu Mansion. The hall Xizhai of the Shanxi University Hall is his. host..."

Zhou Yuan rubbed his hands, let out a sigh of relief, and said.

It's a bit cold.

"Shanxi University Hall..."

"fair enough."

Bai Gui hesitated for a while, then nodded.

Zhou Yuan and the others also arrived at the time when they graduated from higher schools. After graduating from higher schools, they either went to study abroad or entered colleges for the next step of education.Jin Province is not far from Qin Province, so it is appropriate to choose Shanxi University as the place of study.

Of course he can use his relationship to recommend Zhou Yuan and others to go to the Imperial University, but Zhou Yuan and the others are not very outstanding in their studies. They graduated from Xianning County and went to the Imperial University. adapt.Besides, the current Shanxi University Hall is indeed a bit behind the Beijing Normal University Hall, but the gap is not so far that it is difficult to hold a candle to it...

After all, it is one of the three major halls.

If Zhou Yuan and others find him and hope to use his relationship to introduce one or two, then Bai Gui will not refuse.

Adults have choices.

It was not his turn to interfere.

"Wait a while, I'm going to buy a box of cakes."

Bai Gui smiled and rode his horse for a hundred meters.

Chang'an, the place where the Bell and Drum Towers are relatively prosperous, they choose gifts here when they return home.And next to the Bell and Drum Tower, Sajinqiao, there are more snacks sold here.

It was morning, and there happened to be cakes for sale.

"Ten servings of cakes..."

he shouted to the peddler.

After a while, he came over with a few packs of cakes wrapped in lotus leaves, "Please eat something, don't call me white and stingy."

"Thank you, Brother Meihe."

"Thank you bro."

Several people nodded and caught the hot lotus leaf cake.

Bai Gui also ate whole.

Zhen cake is sweet and delicious, and it is the food that poisoned Wu Pin to death.Steamed jujube paste is piled on top, and kidney beans and glutinous rice are mixed underneath, which seems to increase the appetite.

Finished meal.

A group of people rode horses and carriages and drove towards Zishui County.

　There are still two updates, and there will be one update in the early morning, and I will make up the remaining one after the early morning.I haven’t had time for these two or three days. First, the actual place names couldn’t be used, and I changed them for a long time. Then, the epidemic recurred, so I could only stay at home. I queued up to do nucleic acid this afternoon...
