In the cold wind, a young man wearing tattered cloth and holding a sword huddled in the corner.
Hearing the voice, the young man looked up, and what he saw next was a young man about his age looking at him.
Next to the street.
Bai Yan sat next to the boy holding the sword, not caring that the corner under the eaves was full of dust.
When he was passing by just now, Bai Yan saw a woman secretly holding a dish for the young man to eat.
But then, he saw a woman walking out of the yard and kicked over the bowl of vegetables.
"This is Xianyang!"
Bai Yan asked, looking at the kicked over bowl of vegetables in front of him, and then looking into the distance.
"Passing by!"
The young man holding the sword heard Bai Yan's words and said softly.
However, the young man who spoke seemed to have a guilty expression.
At this moment.
In the courtyard, the woman who had just come out with the vegetable basket came out again, but this time, there was no vegetable basket in the woman's hand.
Came to the young man holding the sword.
The young woman squatted on the ground, picking up the kicked over bowls and chopsticks with her delicate hands.
"Go quickly! Don't stay here anymore."
The woman said to the boy holding the sword, looking at Bai Yan with her beautiful eyes, seemingly wary.
However, when she heard footsteps coming from the courtyard, a look of worry appeared on the woman's pretty face. She ignored Bai Yan's presence and looked at the boy holding the sword with her beautiful eyes. Then she took out a piece of money from her arms and quickly placed it in the boy's arms.
After doing all this, the woman got up and walked towards the yard.
Beside the young man.
Bai Yan was like a spectator, watching this scene with interest.
Regardless of the amount of money, Bai Yan can guarantee that the woman probably saved this amount of money for a long time.
After all, that girl was a girl and had not married yet.
Why would the parents give that woman money?
Dang~!
The sound of the courtyard door closing sounded.
Bai Yan saw the young man holding a sword beside him.
At this moment.
Bai Yan is not blind, so he naturally understands roughly why this sword-wielding young man came to Xianyang.
My feelings are for this woman.
With the cold wind blowing, Bai Yan looked at the thin clothes on the young man beside him.
"No wonder I saw you in Xianyang. The woman looked at me just now, as if she wanted me to take you away, but you seemed unwilling to leave."
Bai Yan was wrapped in thick clothes and said.
The hardest thing to accept is the kindness of a beautiful woman!
Even though Bai Yan didn't have much experience, he understood that in this young man's heart, that woman was probably unique.
The young man holding the sword was silent and did not speak.
Bai Yan was destined not to wait here long, so he took out the three strings of money he only had with him and handed them to the young man beside him.
The young man holding the sword looked at Bai Yan with a puzzled expression.
"Then go ahead. If you like someone else, you have to change your clothes. If you don't even have any clothes to wear, what will this family think of you?"
Bai Yan looked at the young man and said, put the money in the young man's arms, then stood up and patted his butt.
Talk about it.
Bai Yan and this young man only had one relationship, and that was when they were in Wei State, they both spent a night sleeping in the open under the same roof.
At that time, Bai Yan was still a young man from Qi who was driven out of Qi State. He was carrying a package on his back, leading a horse and carrying a sword.
The sword-wielding young man in front of him was even worse than Bai Yan. He only had a sword on his body and only two other outfits.
However, what is different from Bai Yan is that Bai Yan wants to come to Qin to join the army and perform meritorious service, while the young man, after the death of his father, lost all his money and bought a sword, and just left home, thinking of traveling around the world and making his way in the world.
at the moment.
Bai Yan didn't know if this young man had really entered the "jianghu" in his eyes after a few months.
But the only thing that is certain is that in the future, this young man may never have a world in his heart.
"The money you got from selling the horse?"
The young man holding the sword looked at the huge sum of money in his arms that he had never seen before, and looked at Bai Yan.
He knew, however, that this Yan was also a poor man. He only had a horse and a sword, and was no better than him. Otherwise, how could he sleep under the eaves and sleep better than him?
"I'm not willing to sell that horse!"
Bai Yan smiled.
It seemed that he remembered the look in his eyes that was red with envy when the young man looked at his horse.
Thinking of the scene at that time, Bai Yan smiled.
"This woman is great! She deserves a place in the world."
Bai Yan didn't say much else, he just said something to the young man named Feng Nian with a smile.
Finished.
Bai Yan turned around and left.
“Where will I pay back the money in the future?”
Feng Nian looked at Bai Yan preparing to leave and asked softly.
Feng Nian is not stupid, he can naturally see that Yan seems to be very rich now.
Although he didn't understand where Yan got the money, he at least wanted to know where he would go to Yan to repay the money when he had money in the future.
"Go east here. There is a Bai Mansion. Tell the servants that you can just ask for Bai Yan."
Bai Yan stopped, glanced east, and said to Feng Nian.
When Feng Nian heard Bai Yan's words, his eyes widened slightly.
Bai Yan!
Nowadays, the people at the bottom of the city, the descendant of the Bai family who is talked about the most by Qin officials, the fifth official Bai Yan?
Feng Nian looked at Yan's leaving figure and then at the three strings of money in his hand, feeling a little lost.
When he was in Wei State, he knew that Na Yan was planning to come to Qin State to join the army, but Yan at that time never told him that he was a descendant of the Bai family.
Thinking of their previous encounter, Feng Nian felt a little dazed.
If other people knew that Bai Yan, the astonishing fifth official who is now the upstart of the Qin army, was once so miserable that he lived under the roof, who would believe it.
Come back to your senses.
Feng Nian stood up and looked at the small courtyard in front of him, thinking of the woman just now and thinking about how to speak.
The Lu family's residence.
Bai Yan came to the door of the mansion.
Just meeting Feng Nian again, whom he had met once before, was just an interlude for Bai Yan.
Feng Nian once dreamed of wandering around the world, and for this he even went to the extent of losing his fortune and buying a sword after the death of his only father.
At that time, Bai Yan knew that his dream was different from Feng Nian's.
A few months later, they met in Xianyang.
Although it can be seen now that Feng Nian no longer thinks about the world, he already has a woman he admires in his heart.
In this case, Bai Yan didn't want Feng Nian to go to war.
After all, no matter how hard and tiring the world is, there is nothing more than poverty.
But the military battlefield is a more dangerous place. If you have less strength or luck, you may lose your life.
In Bai Yan's eyes, that Feng Nian was pitiful enough.
When he was a child, his mother disliked the family's poverty, abandoned the father and son, and ran away with a merchant.
Therefore, when he was very young, Feng Nian had no mother and had never seen his mother.
When I grew up, my father passed away before I was a minor.
So Feng Nian, who was alone in this world, had the dream of wandering in the rivers and lakes and dying there.
But now that I think about it, it sounds funny.
Within a few months of this, Feng Nian met the woman he fell in love with, and he didn't know why.
Bai Yan didn't spend much time with Feng Nian, but he knew that Feng Nian's experiences meant that it would be difficult for him to fall in love with a woman, and if he met her, he would really fall in love with her for the rest of his life.
Just now we were outside the small courtyard.
When Bai Yan saw the young woman, he took out the money from his arms and gave it to Feng Nian.
Bai Yan could know that woman's behavior. For Feng Nian, perhaps no woman in the world was as good as her!
"Are you?"
In front of the mansion, several servants guarding the door saw Bai Yan, and one of the servants asked.
While speaking, the servant unconsciously looked Bai Yan up and down with his eyes, and then determined that Bai Yan was not a powerful person.
"Invited by Lu Qi, I am coming to the banquet today. I would like to inform you."
Bai Yan cupped his hands and said.
When the servant heard this, he looked at the servant next to him, and then the servant hurriedly walked towards the mansion.
"Please wait a moment!"
The servant then raised his hands to Bai Yan and said.
