Chapter 208: Family Heirloom

At this lunch, Du Caiyu was stunned to toss the ordinary family banquet into the feeling of a full banquet of the Manchurian and Han Dynasty.

Swans flying in the sky, cattle and sheep jumping on the ground, wild fish in the riverside stream, game hunted in the deep mountains and old forests, snails dug out of the mud, and even seafood in the sea...... All the delicacies that people can think of in the world have been cooked by her one by one and served on the table.

"Mom, where did you buy all these ingredients?"

Qin Lanzhou hadn't tasted so much delicacy at one time for a long time, and she couldn't help but ask while eating it violently.

"Didn't it happen to be a holiday recently, these things were all sent by my apprentices in the past. Back then, my mother called me stupid when I took apprentices for free, but now that I'm old, these apprentices will think of me when they reach the New Year's Day, even if they don't do this anymore, they will still keep sending me this and that. You're in for a good day, these are freshly delivered, so I asked your mother to just burn them. ”

Qin Yi sat at the dinner table, he didn't use his chopsticks much, but his face couldn't help but show a proud and relieved smile.

As a generation of craftsmen, although the former master-apprentice friendship has gradually declined with the development of the times, Qin Yi, who respects his teachers, has always followed the ancient etiquette, fortunately, his subtle words and deeds have also influenced the batch of apprentices he once brought out.

Now, he can also be regarded as a peach and plum all over the world, and the heavy gifts sent by these apprentices during the New Year are the greatest affirmation of his life for him.

"I didn't expect that the apprentices brought out by Lao Qin back then were so affectionate and righteous, unlike me, the apprentices I brought with me probably forgot about me as a master long ago!"

Hearing Qin Yi say this, Yang Shoucheng was even more deeply touched.

In such a comparison, seeing that Qin Yi is now full of children and grandchildren, and his disciples are all over the world, but he has failed to start a business at an age, it is a little bleak.

"If you work hard, you will reap the rewards. Lao Yang, don't be presumptuous, since you have started a business, this is also a kind of beginning, no matter how difficult it is, I hope you can persevere. ”

Song Zhihuan could hear the emotion in Yang Shoucheng's words, so he patted Yang Shoucheng's shoulder and said comfortingly.

"I'm a person who does things old-fashioned, but I have the principles I abide by, and over the years, I have never changed, even if I can't pick up my shoulders now, I can't lift my hands, and I can no longer hold those tools, but I still think that I am a craftsman from beginning to end, I only recognize this title in my life, and those other titles, in my opinion, are all false."

Qin Yi said slowly.

He said this not only to himself, but also to Yang Shoucheng.

After all, in the past few years, he and Yang Shoucheng have gradually parted ways, and they are basically two kinds of people who have different ways and do not conspire with each other.

If it was in the past, Yang Shoucheng would only snort disdainfully when he heard Qin Yi's words, but now, he has deeply understood that all that Qin Yi said is indeed the truth.

It was his own life that he walked step by step, forgetting his roots too much and forgetting his original intention, so he gradually lost himself, resulting in the bleak situation of the current evening.

On the other hand, Qin Yi and Song Zhihuan, each of them worked diligently for their own second and third minutes, regardless of returns, but now they have gained much more than him.

"Yes, I have indeed forgotten my identity as a craftsman, and I think too highly of myself, and I am ashamed of our master. Lao Qin, Lao Song, I salute you, I finally understand now, but it's too late. ”

Yang Shoucheng said in a melancholy tone, with a depressed and unhappy voice.

He grabbed a glass of spirits and drank it first.

"Uncle Yang, everything in the past is in the past, and the most important thing is the present. As long as you still have faith in yourself, even if you start all over again, you will be able to do it! ”

Song Jinyu saw that Yang Shoucheng was vain, so he hurriedly said to Yang Shoucheng.

"Yes, Lao Yang, what's the difficulty, you and I say hello, no matter what, we are brothers for many years."

Song Zhihuan said with deep righteousness.

"The Molan Workshop is next to the Yang Workshop, if you have any difficulties, let them help them more, no matter what happens, as long as you are not afraid of things, it will naturally pass."

Qin Yi also said something in a sullen voice at this time, although his tone was still dull, he was clearly relieved.

Yang Shoucheng didn't expect that until now, he would still be able to get forgiveness from Song Zhihuan and Qin Yi, and he was so moved that his eyes were red for a while.

However, in front of so many people, Yang Shoucheng immediately turned around quietly, not wanting everyone to see his embarrassed expression at the moment.

Just when the family banquet was going on happily at this table, at this time, in the Qin family, an uncle of Qin Lanzhou suddenly ran into the courtyard of Qin Yi's house and greeted Qin Yi and Du Caiyu:

"Big brother, sister-in-law, someone came to Anhe Town to look for relatives, saying that they wanted to find your family, I guess they came to find Xiaomo, do you see it or not? If you see it, I'll bring people in. ”

"Looking for Xiaomo? Who is it? ”

Du Caiyu didn't react at once, she quickly stood up and asked in surprise.

At this time, Situ Mo and Tao Yuan involuntarily glanced at each other, and a wisp of complicated feelings suddenly flashed in Situ Mo's indifferent black eyes.

"They say that their surname is Situ Mo, and the older one looks a little similar to Xiaomo, I guess it may be...... is Xiaomo's biological father. ”

Qin Lanzhou's uncle said to them with some embarrassment.

As soon as he finished speaking, the entire dining table suddenly fell into silence.

Everyone couldn't help but look at Situ Mo, and after Situ Mo heard these words from his uncle, his body was obviously shocked, his Adam's apple rolled, and countless indescribable feelings instantly accumulated in his heart.

More than thirty years have passed......

Now, he has a family, has his own career, and has a family that treats him sincerely.

Once upon a time, before the knot in his heart was opened, he had looked forward to this day immensely.

But now, since he truly regarded Qin Yi and Du Caiyu as his parents, the knot in his heart has been completely let go.

What's more, for so many years, although he has never asked, he also vaguely knows where his biological family is, and he has wanted to try to take the initiative to find them more than once.

But now, he has no hope, but unexpectedly, they suddenly appeared.

Situ Mo's mood at the moment can be imagined how complicated it is.

Tao Yuan could of course understand, she stepped forward and held Situ Mo's hand directly:

"Xiaomo, if you want to see it, just see it."

At this time, the grandmother also stepped forward tremblingly, grabbed Situ Mo's other hand with some emotion, and couldn't help but burst into tears:

"Xiaomo, after so many years, they can be regarded as coming to you, wow, let's go and meet you."

At this moment, holding him in one hand is his lover who has been with him for a lifetime, and the other hand is holding his life-saving benefactor.

Situ Mo is not the kind of person who likes to expose his emotions in front of people, but at this moment, his eyes still couldn't stop reddening.

Hearing her grandmother's words, Qin Lanzhou's eyes turned red instantly, she looked at Situ Mo in a daze, and everyone waited for his reply.

Situ Mo was silent for a long time, as if it were a century.

In the process of his silence, Qin Yi, Du Caiyu and Qin Lanzhou all quietly walked to his side and stood behind him.

In fact, for their family, no matter what decision Situ Mo makes, they understand and support it in their hearts.

However, after Situ Mo was silent for a long time, he finally chose to let go of the little obsession in his heart and said lightly:

"It's still gone, uncle, please tell them that I've been doing well all these years, and I already have my own relatives, so I don't have to make any more trouble."

Situ Mo's words surprised everyone.

"Xiaomo, they're just outside, you really don't plan to meet them?"

Grandma looked at Situ Mo with trembling hands, and couldn't help but ask again.

"Yes, Xiaomo, you don't have to worry about our feelings, even if you go out to meet them, we won't mind, we can all understand."

Du Caiyu was afraid that Situ Mo was afraid of them, so he made such a decision, so he hurriedly persuaded him.

"Grandma, Mom, Xiaomo has actually let go a long time ago, it's been so many years, if you really care about him, you should have come a long time ago."

Tao Yuan now has a deep understanding of Situ Mo's heart, Situ Mo has not spoken, she said what Situ Mo wanted to say.

"Yes, if you want to recognize it, you should have come a long time ago......"

At this time, Qin Yi, who had stood behind Situ Mo for a long time and had not spoken for a long time, also repeated a sentence meaningfully.

The deep meaning behind these words is naturally self-evident.

The fan in winter, the quilt in summer, all the care of the season, are superfluous.

Qin Lanzhou's uncle had already understood Situ Mo's intentions at this moment, so he nodded and said:

"Okay, then I'll tell them word for word, so that they don't bother in the future."

Qin Lanzhou's uncle immediately walked out of the gate of the courtyard, and the rest of them also sat down and started chatting again.

This night, at the strong request of his grandmother, Situ Mo's family of three, Qin Lanzhou and Song Jinyu all stayed at home for one night.

After dinner, Grandma summoned all four of them to her room.

"Grandma, are you going to have a family meeting?"

Qin Lanzhou looked at her grandmother with a smile and said.

"Yes, I have something good for you today."

With a childish smile on her face, Grandma turned and pulled out a delicate and quaint mahogany box from her old wooden box.

After opening the mahogany box, she uncovered the yellow silk cloth in the wooden box layer by layer, and after more than ten layers, a pair of shiny filigree dragon and phoenix bracelets with very complex craftsmanship were finally revealed.

Seeing this pair of gold bracelets, Qin Lanzhou immediately couldn't help but shout:

"Grandma, isn't this our family heirloom? When I was a child, you used to talk to me, but I never saw it. ”

"Yes, this is the heirloom of our Qin family, this is the ancestor of our Qin family when he was still working as a royal goldsmith in the court, the emperor rewarded him, this was originally made for the emperor and the queen, but at that time, the emperor felt that our ancestor had good craftsmanship, so he specially rewarded him with a pair. This pair of gold bracelets is too valuable, so in our Qin family for hundreds of years, no matter how poor our ancestors are, no one is willing to sell them......"

Grandma slowly told the origin of this pair of bracelets, and this story was mentioned countless times by Qin Lanzhou when she was a child.

Qin Lanzhou originally thought that her grandmother was making up stories to tell her, after all, things that symbolize imperial power, such as dragons and phoenixes, rarely appear in the homes of ordinary people, but she didn't expect that in their Qin family, there really was such a pair of gold bracelets......
