Chapter 324: My dear, don't touch me... (Page 1/2)



When Xie Lanzhi and Qin Shu got out of the car, Uncle Qin Liu and the elders of the clan came to greet them.

Qin's father, Qin Jianguo, and his wife, Li Rong, walked quickly to Qin Shu's side.

Mother Qin asked, "Is Ah Shu about to give birth?"

Qin Shu held her pregnant belly with a smile on her face: "It's almost there, there's still more than a month left."

Mother Qin held her arm and said distressedly: "How old are you, your child, and you are going to be the mother of four children."

Qin Shu smiled playfully: "It's good to be a mother at a young age. When the children grow up, we might be mistaken for siblings when we stand together."

The scene of the first time she saw her mother-in-law and Xie Lanzhi standing together emerged in her mind, and she actually felt a little bit of anticipation.

Qin Jianguo glared at his daughter and said, "What nonsense are you talking about, kid? You are too different in generation."

After Sixth Uncle greeted Xie Lanzhi, he looked at the three people with solemn eyes without a smile.

"Okay, time is running out, let's hurry up and worship our ancestors."

Qin Shu released her hand from her mother and tugged at Xie Lanzhi's sleeve.

"Come with me, and we'll go home."

Xie Lanzhi didn't know the procedure, so he nodded obediently: "Okay——"

Sixth Uncle and others made way, and Qin's father and mother returned to their previous positions.

Qin Shu looked at the red lanterns held in the hands of hundreds of tribesmen, lighting her way home.

Every member of the Qin clan had a solemn expression on their faces, with a hint of respect in their eyes.

Qin Shu held Xie Lanzhi's arm and walked forward on the ground illuminated by the red light.

As they left, hundreds of tribesmen moved.

The team was in an orderly manner, with one person in front and one behind, and the couple who returned home late at night were crowded together.

The scene looks grand and impressive.

However, with so many people moving together, no unusual noise was made.

Amuti and Langye were walking at the back, and were led by a young man from the Qin family to catch up with the team.

Lang Ye was young, at the age when he liked to gossip, so he patted the Qin boy on the shoulder.

"How long have you been waiting here?"

"Does your village always make such a big fuss to welcome the son-in-law?"

The little boy had a stern face and a rough duck voice, and spoke in a serious tone.

"The younger generation of the Qin family has been waiting here for the entire afternoon. Sixth Uncle and his men came here after they finished the sacrificial ceremony. They have been waiting for two hours."

"Sister Shu is the most senior person in our Qin family, and she is also the heir of our generation's medical skills. Bringing a male from outside the family into the family tree is a big deal, and everyone in the family must come to welcome her.

This is the highest standard of etiquette for the Qin family, and it also represents that all 188 members of the family... No! It is 187 members who have approved the inclusion of an outsider in the family tree, enjoying the treatment that only Qin family members can have. "

Amuti and Langye knew the purpose of returning to Yushan Village tonight.

I also understand that the treatment of the Qin clan members mentioned by the young man is the secret of longevity.

Lang Ye looked at the long line of red lanterns in front of him and asked with amusement, "Is it 188 people or 187?"

The young man from the Qin family holding the red lantern said in annoyance, "Originally there were 188 people, but then Qin Baozhu was kicked out of the family tree, so now there are 187 people."

The boy's face, illuminated by the light of the lantern, showed a trace of loneliness that was fleeting.

Hearing Qin Baozhu's name, Amuti and Lang Ye looked at each other.

There was obvious sarcasm in the two people's eyes.

The young man holding the lantern suddenly said cheerfully, "But the Qin family will soon welcome new members. My cousin's husband and nephew will be included in the family tree. My sixth uncle said that Sister Shu's baby will also change his surname and be included in our Qin family's family tree!"

Wow!

This is to win over the prince of Xie family, but he is not satisfied and even does not let the young master of the family go!

Amuti and Langye were at a loss whether to laugh or cry at the Qin family's "greed".

I wonder what expression Commander Xie and Madam Xie would have if they knew about this.

The long line soon arrived at the Qin Family Ancestral Hall.

Uncle Qin Liu handed a dark-colored robe to Xie Lanzhi with both hands.

"Put on this dress and step into the Qin family ancestral hall. From now on, you are a member of the Qin family."

Xie Lanzhi loosened his grip on Qin Shu's hand and reached out to take the clothes with both hands, but his sixth uncle dodged him.

His wise eyes, which were precipitated by the years, stared quietly at Xie Lanzhi, who was half a head taller than him.

"The clan has its own rules, which are the rules that make the circle square. The Qin family's ancestral teachings are that all the children of our clan should be close to each other, have deep affection for each other, and respect each other."

"I know you come from a noble family, are a child of destiny, and may look down on us country folk."

"My Qin family is not a family that covets wealth and power. Although the Qin family has fallen into decline, its integrity remains. We will not take advantage of your Xie family."

Xie Lanzhi looked surprised and said modestly, "Sixth Uncle, your words are embarrassing to me. I have never thought of it that way."

The sixth uncle nodded with satisfaction, "Ancestor worship and entering the family tree is a big deal, I want to explain everything to you.

Ah Shu is too shy to say it, but I am over a hundred years old and have a thick skin, so I just said it out loud. "

Xie Lanzhi nodded modestly, neither arrogant nor humble.

"I'll keep everything you said in mind."

Sixth Uncle handed the clothes in his hand to Qin Shu, who was looking at him eagerly, and pointed to the Qin family members around him.

"Xie Lanzhi, these are all the members of my Qin clan. Due to the decline of our clan, there are only 187 people left."

Xie Lanzhi nodded slightly to everyone: "Lanzhi is troubling you all today."

Everyone in the Qin family, regardless of gender, age or status, responded with ancient etiquette.

The Sixth Uncle looked at Xie Lanzhi with a look of satisfaction, and suddenly asked: "My Qin family has been in existence for five thousand years. Ah Shu is the 38th generation descendant of the Qin family. Do you know what this means?"

Five thousand years?

The calmness on Xie Lanzhi's face faded, revealing a shocked expression.

Didn’t Qin Shu say that the Qin family only existed for a thousand years? How come it became five thousand years?

You know, China has only about 5,000 years of history!

Xie Lanzhi's voice tightened, and he answered carefully: "It means that everyone in the Qin family will live a long life."

"That's right!" Sixth Uncle stroked his white beard and sighed softly: "The longest-lived heir of my Qin family is 208 years old, and there are a few heirs who died young due to natural disasters or man-made calamities."

“!!!” Xie Lanzhi’s noble and elegant face twitched slightly.

Two hundred and eight years old?

Are you sure this isn't a myth?!

Qin Shu raised her head and stared at Xie Lanzhi with an irritated look, interrupting Uncle Qin Liu's recollections.

"Sixth Uncle, please stop nagging and hurry up."

The Sixth Uncle put down his hand that was pinching his beard and said with a smile: "Look at me, I talk less as I get older."

He looked at Xie Lanzhi calmly: "Let me be frank. If my Qin family wanted to live a life of luxury, with the Qin family's longevity secrets and Ah Shu's ability to bring the dead back to life, the Qin family would have already become the guests of honor of many dignitaries.

But my Qin family has a long-lasting spirit, and practicing medicine to save lives is also a family motto. We will not pursue an excessively extravagant life. Today, Ah Shu brought you back to worship the ancestors and enter the family tree only because you are her chosen partner, not because you come from a famous family and have a commander father. "
