Chronicles of Ancient Life

Dingyang City used to be the accompanying capital for a dynasty, although it was more than 200 years ago.But the prosperity at that time has continued to this day, and despite several wars, it has been revived like a weed tenaciously.The mottled and majestic city wall in front of you shows its thick history to everyone who comes.

Yu Jiaze, oh, it should be called Qin Jiaze.Qin Jiaze looked at the mahogany box inlaid with treasures in his hand, but it was only the size of an adult's palm. On the box were pictures of babies playing with gems and shells of various colors.Qin Jiaze has only heard of the name of the treasure inlay and has never seen the real thing. It is not uncommon for the treasure inlay on modern furniture to be mostly made of porcelain and shells.As for the treasure inlays that are really made of precious stones, Qin Jiaze, a poor person in his previous life, couldn't afford them and couldn't see them.I didn't expect it to be delivered to someone so lightly today. Sure enough, this is the gap.

Qin Jiaze carefully rubbed the pattern on the wooden box, the baby is delicate, smart and cute, very cute.Qin Jiaze could only recognize ivory and coral on it, but couldn't recognize the rest.But what made Qin Jiaze even more surprised was that Baibaoembai actually appeared here?The Baibao inlays in the history of the previous life only appeared in the Ming Dynasty. Based on Qin Jiaze's historical knowledge, it can be determined that this is definitely not the Ming Dynasty, and it is even less likely to be the Qing Dynasty.It seems that I was indeed reborn in a dynasty that did not exist in history. In fact, I should be sure when I found out that men can have children. I just don’t know if this place is related to the history of the previous life?Forget it, Qin Jiaze shook his head and stopped thinking about it, and will find out when he has a chance to look through the history books in the future.Let's take a look at what's in your hand first!

Qin Jiaze gently unlocked the lock, opened the lid, and inside the box was a small red silk bag.Qin Jiaze opened the red silk, and a Liuyun Ping'an Pei with a lustrous color and a transparent texture lay there quietly.The jade pendant is engraved with the words "Ping An Ruyi", and the shape of flowing clouds implies auspiciousness.Qin Jiaze's hands trembled a little while holding the box. Sure enough, I don't understand the world of the rich, and it's too precious!How many years did I have to struggle in my previous life to afford such a jade pendant?Qin Jiaze picked up the jade pendant, his hands felt cool and smooth, even laymen could tell that this piece of jade was a fast jade, but it was not clear how good it was.The jade pendant was a circle smaller than Yu Jiaze's palm, with holes at the top and no holes for tassels at the bottom, it looked like it should be hung around the neck.Qin Jiaze couldn't help sighing, Yingyu gave her a gift of beautiful jade, and he really had nothing to give in return.

Qin Jiaze was the only one in the carriage, Yu Wenli and Lin Zijun had something to do ahead, and told him to come back immediately.The driver is still guarding the car, so there is no need to worry about him having an accident alone.Although Ying Yu gave it to him, Wang Jun must agree, but he still has to let his parents see it first.Qin Jiaze wrapped the jade pendant in red silk and put it back in the box, waiting for his parents to come back.

Qin Jiaze lifted the curtain of the car, and could vaguely see the city tower in the distance.There is still a long queue ahead, which are horses and horses lining up to enter the city and people on foot.It seems that Dingyang City is indeed a prosperous place.

When Qin Wenli and Lin Zijun came back with things in their hands, they saw their son looking out from a distance.When he got closer, Lin Zijun said, "Be careful, what if you fall?"

Qin Jiaze was not afraid, and argued, "With Uncle Wang watching, it won't fall off. What's in your hand, Dad?"

Lin Zijun and Qin Wenli put their things in the carriage, and they also got into the carriage.Qin Wenli pulled his son to his side, and Lin Zijun packed all his things into boxes.

Lin Zijun thought about it for a while, and said to his son, "This is a gift from the king of Dingyang. Dad will put it away for you first. Let's go back and look at it, okay? There are still some in the front car, and I have a look at them when I get home." And show it to you. The things are all Aze’s, and when the time comes, they will be received by Aze and put away in a special place.”

Qin Jiaze was not surprised, Dingyang Wang Jun would send a gift.Although he was a little curious, he didn't have to watch it now, so he said, "Abba, just keep it for me. Abba, look, this is a gift from Yingyu. Is it good?" Qin Jiaze handed the box to Lin Zi You see.

Lin Zijun took it, and was surprised by the box embedded in Baibao, and then opened the box.Seeing the jade pendant inside, I also praised it as a fast and good jade.Lin Zijun showed the box to Qin Wenli.Although Qin Wenli was also surprised, he didn't want to keep his son's things.Asked Lin Zijun, "This jade pendant is of good quality and meaning. It looks like it's for children. Find a string and put it on for Ono... Jiaze to wear."

Lin Zijun took a closer look at the jade pendant again, and felt that it was suitable for the child to wear.He said, "The implication is really good, but I can't find a suitable rope now. Wait until you settle down. Find a strong red rope and put it on the child." Qin Wenli nodded upon hearing this, and didn't say any more.

Qin Jiaze thought for a while and didn't ask, or if he needed to return the gift. This is not something he needs to worry about.What's more, in the eyes of the ancients, this should be a reward. In other words, it is to thank you.Dingyang Wangjun's carriage has already entered the city, and his own team should be fast.

Sure enough, after waiting for less than two minutes, the carriage moved.The carriage gradually moved forward, and Qin Jiaze could hear the noise of the streets in the city.

After entering the city, the carriage walked along the main street. Qin Jiaze saw the shops and pedestrians on both sides from the window, which was much more real and vivid than what he saw on TV before.Lin Zijun pulled Qin Jiaze over and prevented him from looking out.Lin Zijun patted his son's head and said, "Don't move around now, there are many people on the street. In a few days, Dad will take you out for a walk, and then you can find your cousin to accompany you. Ze hasn't met your two cousins ​​yet?"

Speaking of cousin, Qin Jiaze hasn't seen his aunt for several days.In fact, Yu Wenmin asked Qin Jiaze to call him Uncle in private, and call him Aunt outside.Qin Jiaze also felt that these titles were really awkward, so he always called Yu Wenmin his uncle.In fact, there is a set of customary rules for addressing married brothers here, if the family attaches great importance to brothers.Then after the brother gets married, the juniors can continue to call him uncle, and his partner is called uncle or uncle.In this way, when outsiders hear it, they will understand that this brother is valued by the elders just like the brothers of the Yuan family, and can even inherit part of the family property of the Yuan family.However, once the elder brothers of most families get married, their titles are changed, which means that they are from another family when they are married.

After Qin Wenli left Yu's house, he told Qin Jiaze to call Yu Wenmin uncle in the future, instead of calling him aunt like Yu's family.Without the family members of the Yu family, Qin Wenli can also support his brother without any scruples, lest people think that Yu Wenmin is still thinking about the Yu family's property after he is married.

Thinking of this, Qin Jiaze asked, "Father, where did uncle go? I haven't seen you for a few days." On weekdays, Yu Wenmin would come to see Qin Jiaze every day, even when Qin Jiaze went to accompany Ying Yu, Yu Wenmin would also come to see him at night glance.

"Hey, Ozawa finally thinks of your uncle. Your uncle didn't love you for nothing. You haven't been here during the day, so I don't know. Your uncle rushed home a few days ago. Your cousin is too young. Uncle, don't worry, go back and see him first."

The outside gradually quieted down, and the distance from the street was getting farther and farther. The carriage turned a few turns and finally stopped. The Qin Mansion has arrived!

Yu Wenmin, who had rushed back a few days earlier, was already waiting at the door, with the butler of the Qin residence and several servants standing beside him.

Qin Jiaze was carried out of the carriage, and was startled when he saw the battle at the door.Sure enough, the status is different!Qin Jiaze turned his head to look at the expressions on the faces of his parents. It was not unexpected and a little difficult to express, but he couldn't see shrinking or uneasiness.However, the two quickly put away the expressions on their faces and put on their smiles again.And Yu Wenmin had already come over and greeted them to enter the mansion.

The steward led the servants, and also bowed to Qin Wenli and Lin Zijun.Although the two were a little nervous, they accepted the gift calmly.Yu Wenmin next to him saw this, and he also agreed in his heart that the master's house should look like the master's house, and he must gradually get used to it in the future.

Qin Jiaze only relied on his small size and was not afraid of being laughed at.He shook his head openly and looked around the surrounding environment.Although the Qin Mansion is a scholarly family, the layout of the home is comfortable and open without losing the elegance.It was not as finely crafted as Qin Jiaze imagined, but instead revealed a bit of rigidity.What Qin Jiaze didn't know was that the ancestor of the Qin family who built this house was a military officer, that's why the house was designed with an open atmosphere.

When Qin Jiaze was thinking wildly, everyone was already seated in the main hall.The butler brought the servants of the entire family to the ceremony first.Qin Wenli only left the butler to introduce the family affairs, and let the others disperse on their own, so they can go about their own work with peace of mind.

The housekeeper, Wang Xin, is about 30 years old. He was originally a soldier under Qin Jingye. He is literate, thoughtful, and has a bright future.Qin Jingye originally wanted to train him well, but in the end, he was wounded on the battlefield and left scars, and then his right hand tendon was cut off to save his younger brother, and he could no longer go to the battlefield.Before he had time to make contributions, he cut off his future, and his younger brother didn't keep him in the end.Qin Jingye cherished his talent and seeing that he had nowhere to go, he asked him to come to Dingyang Qin Mansion as a housekeeper.

Yu Wenmin had already introduced these things to Qin Wenli and Lin Zijun when they were on the road, so Qin Wenli said very politely, "Steward Wang, sit down and talk. There is no need to say much today. We are a little tired after the journey, so we must first Take a day off, tomorrow we will talk about the affairs of the mansion. You first prepare the washing things, and then buy a table of meals."

Wang Xin is not too tall, but he can be seen as a tough man. Because he has been on the battlefield, he has a bit of evil spirit on his body, and his smile is a bit scary with scars on his face. "Master, you are welcome. If you have anything to ask, I will send someone to prepare it right away. The yard between you and the lord has been prepared. The young master is still living with you, and the things in the house have been replaced. Yes, if you are not satisfied after reading it, I will arrange it again."

Qin Wenli called himself me to the butler, but didn't point it out.He just went on to say, "I see, you can ask someone to lead me there later. You first ask someone to remove the things on the carriage and put them in my room."

Wang Xin agreed, "Yes, I'll do it right away. You rest first." After finishing speaking, he backed out.

As soon as the butler went out, Qin Wenli heaved a sigh of relief, and the expression on his face was no longer tense.Qin Wenli said to Yu Wenmin, "Brother, did I do the right thing?"

Yu Wenmin watched from the side without making a sound.It wasn't until Qin Wenli asked that he replied, "You did the right thing, but the fire is still far behind. You have to learn slowly in the future, and so does Zijun. In the future, you have to be able to handle the big and small affairs of the family. Uncle's foundation If you're not here, the Qin family doesn't have any close relatives. So you don't have to go out to socialize for the time being, and get started with the family affairs first.

You don't have to worry about the housekeeper calling himself me just now.Most of the guards in this house are retired wounded soldiers under the uncle, so they are inevitably a little arrogant.If there is something wrong with what you did not agree with, it would be best if you have the ability to clean it up.If it doesn't work, we'll wait for uncle to come back next year and make some adjustments. "

Qin Wenli felt ashamed when he heard this. He was not as capable as his elder brother since he was a child.Now that I have a family, I can no longer rely on my brother to handle everything, I have to rely on myself.
