Chapter 438 Genealogy
The old lady Qin was very satisfied, pointing to the residence not far away, and introduced to Li Qiao and Qin Baobao the place where Qin Jin played when he was a child.
"Baby, is it time to take you shopping tomorrow?"
The child shook his head.
Old Mrs. Qin: "Why aren't you happy?"
The child babbled and babbled for a long time, but the grandfather and grandson couldn't understand, so he pointed with his little finger.
Li Qiao looked in the direction, and the house was divided into households. Two young men sneaked over the wall and entered one of the small courtyards. "Is it a thief? Are you afraid of danger?"
Child: "Yes."
Although Mrs. Qin wears presbyopic glasses, she can only see people if she is too far away, but cannot see the specific behavior of the other party: "What did you steal?"
"I'm in the house, but I can't see it either." Li Qiao went on to praise the child for his sharp eyes.
The child grinned.
Old lady Qin: "How did you find out?"
The child points his finger.
Li Qiao translates: "Intuition?"
The child responded: "Yes."
The old lady Qin couldn't believe it: "The premonition is so accurate, it must be a fairy?"
The child shrank into Li Qiao's arms, denying the old lady's remarks.
Li Qiao thought it was too heavy, so he switched arms to hug him: "Children may have a stronger sixth sense."
The old lady Qin also thought so, she stretched out her hand to the child: "Do you want to hug the grandma?"
The child does not move.
Li Qiao turned his head, and two people from the old house came out and kicked the wall before leaving.
The old lady Qin also noticed: "Can you see what you are holding?"
Li Qiao: "I shouldn't be touching anything, otherwise I wouldn't be able to kick my feet." This is a sign of frustration.
Mrs. Qin: "It's normal if you can't touch it. Good things have been moved away long ago. Such a big house is actually not suitable for living. The population is small, and it is inconvenient to clean. You have to hire more people, and repairs. It’s all about money.”
Li Qiao: "When Ah Jin sends it, hiring people and decorating will be a small amount of money." Such a house is very suitable for the elderly.
There is a garden and a rockery in the house, but it is a pity that they have been destroyed by man.
“.”
After a day’s rest, early the next morning, a family of four came to the ancestral graveyard in the suburbs with incense, candles, ingots, and offerings. The old lady Qin took care of the children, and Li Qiao and Qin Jin cleaned around the cemetery.
Li Qiao accidentally discovered that one of the tombs was sunken, the surrounding soil showed signs of overturning, and there were also cracks on the tombstone. She pointed it out to Qin Jin: "Will no one rob the tomb?"
Qin Jin: "Grass, who is so wicked to dig up Lao Tzu's ancestral grave."
The old lady Qin leaned forward: "There is a rule in the ancestors of the Qin family that no funerary objects should be placed. The older generation in the city should know that it should not be a tomb robber. Maybe something made a hole to make a nest. First worship the ancestors, Ah Jin will ask someone to come and dig it up later. If the coffin inside is broken, then find a Feng Shui master to recalculate the date for encoffining." She looked at the name of the person: "Qin Qiong, I don't know him either."
In the past, women had a low status and were not allowed to worship their ancestors.
So she didn't come a few times.
Not familiar with these elders.
The genealogy at home used to be placed in the study. Before she left, she entrusted someone to put it on the beam of the house. I don’t know if it is still there. She told Qin Jin the location of the genealogy: "It's best to look for it, see who this person belongs to, and help rebuild a monument."
Qin Jin should go down.
While offering sacrifices to the ancestors, Mrs. Qin hugged the child and said: "Baby, this is your grandpa and grandma, and this is your great-grandpa. Say hello to them."
The child babbled non-stop.
It made the whole family laugh constantly.
Compared to the heavy mood when I came here, I am much more cheerful now.
After worshiping the ancestors, the family of four returned.
After passing the Qin residence, everyone went in together. Qin Jin took out the key to open the gate of the main house yard, moved the ladder up to the beam, and groped for a while: "No, grandma. I'll go to the people who live here and ask if it's them." I lost it." Living in the Qin family's house, it's fine if you sell your valuables.
If even the family tree was made for him.
"Do you know where he lives now? Besides, the family tree is worthless, so what are you doing with those things? Look carefully in the cracks."
Qin Jin is sure not. "I know, you go back to your residence first, and I'll ask where the family tree is."
"We'll wait for you in the yard to bask in the sun." Mrs. Qin said.
"Yes." Qin Jin left.
About half an hour later, he grabbed an old man and came back: "Where did you put it? Let me find it!"
"Hey, hey, I'll look for it right away, I'll look for it right away." After entering the house, the old man took out a box from under the bed: "When we were cleaning the beams last year, I took down the things on it and asked someone to look at it." Said it was a genealogy, thinking about returning you someday when you come back, so I didn’t lose it.”
"Isn't it because the genealogy is not lost because it's worthless? Did you think of today when the idiot took over my house?" Qin Jin caught the one who vented his anger, and scratched his ears.
The other party froze and dared not say a word.
This kid’s family, they thought they were dead.
The Qingming Festival the year before last, Mrs. Qian said that the Qin family is now in Kyoto.
At that time, he began to worry about whether the Qin family would come back.
So when he discovered the genealogy, he didn't even dare to look at it, for fear that the search would be ruined, and the surname Qin would come back to settle accounts with him.
As it turned out, he was right to be worried.
In October of this year, the street suddenly informed them that they were ready to move out.
Unexpectedly, the man came back before the Chinese New Year.
He is tall and big, not much different from the bad guy Qin Wangshu back then, and he has a beautiful wife and children.
After Qin Jin got the genealogy, he scolded the other party to get out, then opened the box, took out the genealogy and started flipping through it from the back. Qin Qiong was the father of his grandfather's grandfather. "Grandma, what should I call you?"
"Here, you are highly educated, what do you think?"
Li Qiao: "I don't understand either. I can only distinguish between the five generations, so I will erect the monument in the name of the sixth generation."
After the discussion, Qin Jin was busy building a tomb for his ancestors.
Li Qiao and Mrs. Qin took their children back to their residence.
After the lunch break of the old and the young, Li Qiao couldn't sleep and looked at the genealogy.
The paper is old, but not broken.
The writing on it is still legible.
It should be paper made of special material.
She turned the pages.
The Qin family should have moved here from another place, because there are only a dozen ancestral graves of the Qin family, all of which are buried directly.
And the genealogy is a thick book.
She found a man named Qin Yunye in the middle. He won the first prize at the age of seventeen and married Shangguan, the daughter of a merchant.
In the biography recorded above, females are one year older than males.
It's a pity that the woman was short-lived, and died in the second year after giving birth to a daughter. The man behind did not renew his strings. When he reached the position of cabinet bachelor, his daughter married, and there was no record of who she married.
At the age of seventy, he died.
Shangguan is a rare surname, and Jiayue is one year older than Yunye according to her birth year.
And there is fate with my own family, isn't it a coincidence?
After she closed the family tree.
Come to the bed where the child sleeps, and look down at him. He and Jiayue should have nothing to do, right?
She looked so good when she was asleep, she couldn't help but bow her head and kiss her.
The child opened his eyes and closed them again when he saw her.
Li Qiao stopped bothering, walked out the door, and stood on the second floor to look into the distance.
Not long after, Qin Jin appeared in sight. He waved at her: "Qiao Qiao."
Li Qiao put his finger to his mouth.
Qin Jin understood, went upstairs and said, "The child is asleep."
