Chapter 70 Waiting
When the army returned to Lantian Camp, Bai Zhongzhen took a leave and went to Xi County first.
Almost half a year has passed since I followed Zhao Gao from Yi County to the end of the extermination of Korea, and it is about to enter October.
Bai Zhong rode alone and returned to Changxingli first.
"Baizhong is back!"
He had just approached the inner gate and before he got off his horse, he heard another shout coming from the inner prison gate. It happened to be evening, and everyone had finished working in the fields and was going home.
Hearing this shout from the inner prison door, everyone ran out.
This lively and grand occasion is exactly the same as the last time Bai Zhong came back.
"Everyone is welcome!"
Bai Zhong greeted them as he walked inside.
He finally walked out of the crowd. The sun had completely set. He hurried back home and saw that the dilapidated small yard was overgrown with weeds and filled with dust.
"I'll see Yu'er tomorrow."
Bai Zhong thought to himself that he would stay here for the night and take out the dry food in the system space to eat.
"Bai Zhong, I heard you are back!"
Li Zheng opened the door and came in: "You are already a general, how can you still eat solid food? Come to my place and eat something good."
Bai Zhong said: "It's not too bad, isn't it?"
"Nothing wrong!"
"Come with me quickly. It's a rare time to come back. You are the pride of our Baijia Village. As an upright person, how can I wrong you?"
Li Zheng also has the surname Bai.
Within the area of Changxingli, most people are from Baijia Village, and only a small number of people have moved from other places.
Bai Zhong had no choice but to follow him back.
"Today is September 30th, and the Chinese New Year will be celebrated tomorrow. There is no one at home, so how can you live in such a deserted place?"
Li Zheng said again.
Bai Zhong was stunned for a while: "Tomorrow is the first day of October, is it the Chinese New Year?"
Li Zheng stopped and asked: "Yes, you have even forgotten the day of the New Year?"
Bai Zhong: "..."
It's not that he doesn't remember, but he traveled through time and seems to have no memory of this. He also doesn't know that the Qin State is so weird that the New Year can be celebrated on the first day of October.
If he had known that tonight was New Year's Eve, he would not have come back to Xi County.
That little girl Lan'er must be quite lonely spending the New Year alone in Xianyang.
Bai Zhong thought about this in his heart, and then said: "I have been fighting for a long time, and I forgot about the days for a while. How about celebrating the New Year!"
He casually passed by and then followed Li Zheng home.
After tonight, it will be the fifteenth year of the Qin Dynasty.
According to the original trajectory, the destruction of Korea occurred in the seventeenth year of the Qin Dynasty.
Because of Bai Zhong's arrival, this historical event was advanced by two years, but he didn't care about this.
The next day.
The first day of the new year.
Changleli was very lively, filled with laughter and laughter everywhere.
Today is the beginning of the year. Everyone did not go to the fields to work, but rested at home.
However, there was not much joy in Zhou Yu's home.
Zhou Yu often stood by the yard and looked toward the inner door. Half a year had passed and he still couldn't see the person he wanted to come back.
"Yu'er, you don't have to wait every day."
Zhou Shi came over and said: "Baizhong is already a general. I heard that the king is going to attack South Korea recently. He should go to fight and there is no time to come back."
Zhou Yu lowered his head, with red eyes, and said: "He went to fight, which made me even more worried."
She is not worried that Bai Zhong will not come back, but she is worried that Bai Zhong will never come back.
"Do not think too much!"
Zhou Shi felt very distressed when he saw it, and said softly: "Come back and have something to eat, don't starve yourself."
Zhou Yu nodded lightly, and when he was about to go back to the house, he heard footsteps approaching from behind. He immediately looked back and saw that it was a neighbor who came to borrow something. He couldn't help but be disappointed.
"You go back first."
Zhou Shi agreed to the neighbor's request and went to the house next to him to get something.
Just when Zhou Yu was about to enter the house, someone else came.
"Yu'er!"
Bai Zhong's voice sounded behind her.
Zhou Yu paused for a moment, then turned around and looked over. Sure enough, she saw her sweetheart standing in front of her. After confirming again and again that it was not a dream, she exclaimed and quickly walked over to Bai Zhong and threw herself into his arms.
Bai Zhong hugged her and said softly: "Yu'er, I'm late when I come back."
"It's not too late. As long as you come back, it's never too late."
Zhou Yu's nose felt sore and his voice became a little more throaty.
At this time, Zhou Shi handed the things to his neighbor. When he saw Bai Zhong, he said in surprise: "Okay, Yu'er finally waited for you to come back."
Listening to his father's voice, Zhou Yu quickly let go of his hand, took two steps back, then lowered his head with a blushing face.
She was shy.
"Father, everything is well in Zhengdan."
Bai Zhong said.
This is what they said when they paid New Year greetings.
Zhou Shi was in a good mood and said quickly: "Yu'er, please ask Bai Zhong to come in."
Bai Zhong took Yu'er's hand and went into the house first, and then Zhou Shi brought the breakfast.
"In the six months since you left, Yu'er has been waiting outside every day for you to come back."
Zhou Shi said happily: "I finally got it today."
Zhou Yu said shyly: "Ah Weng!"
Bai Zhong apologized: "After I went to Xianyang, I had a lot of things to do. I just destroyed South Korea and will come back to see you right away."
"You're not hurt, are you?"
Zhou Yu grabbed his hand worriedly.
"of course not."
Bai Zhong shook his head. He was cheating now and it was hard to get hurt. He added, "I came back this time because I want to take Shifu and Yu'er to Xianyang together."
"No!"
Zhou Shi waved his hand and said: "Bai Zhong, please take Yu'er back. I'm used to working in the countryside. Going to Xianyang makes me uncomfortable. It's most comfortable to stay in Changle. Xianyang is not far from Xi County. You have
You can come back and see me when you have time."
Zhou Yu said nervously: "Aweng, let's go together!"
Bai Zhongdao: "Shifu, Yu'er and I are gone, how can you do it alone in Changle?"
Zhou Shi continued to refuse: "I'm not a child, so why not? That's it."
After a brief meal, Zhou Shi left the house, seemingly deliberately leaving some space for the two young men, but soon came back.
"I just went to see the sun seeker and divined through the sun book. Today is a good day. Before you leave, please get married."
The Rishu is a tool book used by the people of the Qin State to choose the time and predict the good and bad times.
People who are engaged in divination and asking about good or bad luck are called divinators.
"marriage?"
Bai Zhong thought that it would be too soon to get married now, but he quickly agreed: "Okay, I will listen to my uncle's arrangements."
My maternal uncle is my father-in-law.
"Erya Shiqin" records: The wife's father is the maternal uncle, and the wife's mother is the maternal aunt.
When Zhou Yu heard that they were going to get married and Bai Zhong agreed, his pretty face immediately turned red and he lowered his head gently.
When Zhou Shi saw Bai Zhong immediately agreed, he finally let go of his heavy heart, and then took out two sets of clothes that were well preserved, but inevitably looked a bit old. The black clothes were the wedding clothes used by Qin Guo.
"This is the wedding dress that Yu'er's mother and I wore when we got married. Yu'er can wear your mother's wedding dress, but Bai Zhong is taller than me and it will look narrow. I don't have time to sew it now."
His daughter will leave his side soon. He wants them to get married and leave today, fulfilling his wish. He really doesn't have time to prepare anything else.
Bai Zhong said indifferently: "Uncle, I can make do with it."
"good!"
"Get ready, I will make arrangements later."
