Sima Qian took Liu Zhang and them to their home, and Sima's family was not a high-rise mansion.

Sima Qian's family lives in the northwest of Chang'an City, and their home looks a little old.

Compared with some mansions in Chang'an City, it is too far behind, and Sima Qian's ancestors did not leave much wealth to their descendants.

Tai Shi Ling's income is not high, and he will not accept gifts from others.

So the Sima family has lived a very simple life for several generations, and he and Liu Yi currently only have one daughter.

Sima Qian's mother took care of him, and Liu Zhang didn't know Sima Qian's mother's name.

And call her Mrs. Sima, the daughter of Sima Qian and Liu Yi is three years old this year.

Their daughter's name is Sima Ying, and Mrs. Sima is playing in the yard with her three-year-old granddaughter.

When Sima Ying saw her parents coming back, she ran towards her parents with small steps and open arms.

Madame Sima followed closely behind her, and she saw her son and daughter-in-law followed by a strange young man.

looks like the boy is very handsome, and he also has a noble temperament.

"Ahsha, Ahong, hug."

Liu Zhang watched the little and cute little girl running towards her parents and saw her happy smile.

Sima Ying soon came to her parents, and she saw her older brother standing behind them, who was more than a decade older than her.

Sima Ying is not a stranger, this is her home, and outsiders should not hurt her.

Her parents are at home, they are often out and about, and she misses them very much.

"This is our daughter, her name is Sima Ying."

Liu Yi introduced her and Sima Qian's daughter to Liu Zhang, and she held her daughter in her arms.

"You guys talk first, I'll go play with her."

Liu Zhang originally wanted to take out a lollipop from the subspace watch and give it to her, but considering her young age.

Eating too much sugar is not good for your teeth, and when you return to the princess's mansion, someone will bring milk biscuits to Sima Ying.

Delicious, delicious and nutritious, he met Sima Qian and Liu Yi by chance.

I didn't prepare any gifts, so I sent them when I got back.

Sima Qian took Liu Jian to the small living room, which was poorly furnished.

The living room was cleaned and the interior was well lit.

Sima Qian's servants boiled hot water, and they could only use boiled water to entertain guests when chatting with them.

The Sima family had several older servants, who did not have much wealth in the family.

couldn't afford those young, strong and handsome slaves, Liu Zhang saw that the living room was really simple.

The wooden floors were not made of precious wood, and they took off their shoes and entered the living room.

In this era, when entering the house, it was necessary to take off one's shoes, and people usually sat on their knees.

Liu Zhang sat on a bamboo heel with a sheepskin cushion.

It was soft and comfortable to sit in winter, and Sima Qian was also the first time to personally entertain distinguished guests.

"I'm here to disturb you today."

Liu Zhang said sorry to Sima Qian, and coming to visit Sima Qian's home was only a temporary idea.

"The humble house is simple, and there is really nothing good to entertain you. I'm so sorry! ”

Sima Qian apologized to Liu Zhang, and their family rarely came to their distinguished guests.

The home is extraordinarily quiet, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a door.

Starting from his eldest father's generation, few members of the Sima family served as high-ranking officials.

There was no need for others to visit, because they could not benefit from the Sima family.

"The surroundings of your house are really nice, clean place. It is also conducive to life, and the material of life is not about whether it is precious or not, but about good morality. ”

Liu Zhang didn't care if others entertained him with the best items, he knew that Sima Qian's family was not very good.

Sima is a little better than ordinary people, at least he can solve the problem of food and clothing.

"Your family has been writing history for generations, and I am also interested in history."

Liu Zhang is indeed very interested in history, and there are some unsolved mysteries in history.

I don't know how much Sima Qian knows about this, so I just took this opportunity to talk to him.

Try to avoid some sensitive historical topics and talk to him about some history from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties.

I don't know how much Sima Qian knows about oracle bone inscriptions, Liu Zhang has some oracle bone characters in his mind.

Later, write it out and show it to him to see if he can understand it.

"You're interested in history, and I've also collected some historical material over the years. Which history do you want to know? I tell you to the best of my knowledge. ”

Liu Zhang asked Sima Qian for pen and ink, and he wanted to write a few words. Can Sima Qian understand?

Sima Qian brought some pieces of paper, which had recently been sold in some shops in Chang'an.

The price of paper was quite cheap, so he brought pen and paper.

Liu Zhang wrote some symbols on the pen and paper, which were the oracle bone characters he had in his mind.

After Liu Zhang finished writing, he pushed the paper in front of Sima Qian.

Sima Qian looked at some symbols on the paper, he had been to many places.

I've seen the same symbols as on paper, and I've studied them for a while.

"These are ancient texts, and according to legend, it was a person named Cangjie during the Yellow Emperor's period. He created pictographs, which are an evolution of pictographs and are somewhat similar to Zhou Wen. ”

After studying for a while, Sima Qian also guessed the approximate meaning of some words.

Some words are incomprehensible, and he thinks that Liu Zhang is a historical problem for him.

"I also saw some symbols and wrote them down. I hope that one day, I will be able to consult a scholar who is well versed in history. ”

Liu Zhang didn't mean to embarrass him, but just talked about oracle bones with him.

Some oracle bone inscriptions reveal historical information, but due to their age.

I can't decipher a lot of words, if Sima Qian can't understand it.

Liu Zhang stopped asking, he is not a professional student of history.

Liu Zhang relied on his memory to write that the king of Shang was driving a hunting car and had a car accident on the way.

The axle broke, the horse was frightened, and the rider was wounded.

This is a historical story, and the next thing is to talk about this historical event.

Sima Qian looked at some symbols, some he had seen, some he had not.

"You see the axle of this car is broken, this car is overturned. The horse stood up, which meant that it was frightened. ”

Sima Qian heard Liu Zhang say this, and felt that these ancient characters were combined.

It was an event in history that is little known.

"Hearing you say that, I understand the general meaning of these words."

He took the paper and carefully studied the oracle bone inscriptions, which were somewhat similar to the small seals and official scripts used today.

According to the strokes on the paper, Sima Qian soon discovered that the words written on the paper could correspond to the characters used today.

"I understand all of this, and very few of these ancient words have been handed down. At that time, the Qin Emperor ordered the burning of books, and also destroyed some books and texts. ”

When Sima Qian learned about this history, he also felt heartbroken.

I also heard that there is a backup of the books that were burned back then, but I have not found them so far.

Some ancient characters are carved on some stone walls, and after many years of wind and rain.

Some of the characters were blurred, and every time he found a stone carving, he copied them.

He studied it whenever he had time, but unfortunately there were too few ancient texts left.

Sima Qian looked at the words on the paper in his hand very attentively, and Liu Zhang did not bother him.

It is worthy of being a historian, as long as it is related to history.

He will be very engrossed, and the servant will bring boiled water.

Seeing Sima Qian holding a piece of paper, he was so fascinated that he put the clay pot and clay cup on the table.

He poured a glass of water for Liu Zhang and brought some dried red dates and nuts.

The best hospitality at home is these dried red dates and nuts, which are not necessarily desirable to some aristocrats.

Liu Zhang picked up a red date and put it in his mouth, and he chewed it gently.

The red dates are dry and sweet, and the red dates are also very cleanly washed.

The servant smiled delightfully when he saw that he had eaten so well.

Liu Zhang gently spit out the jujube pit, but nodded slightly to indicate that the jujube was delicious.

After a while, Sima Qian came back to his senses, he was too engaged.

I saw Liu Zhang eating red dates again, and there were already a lot of jujube cores on the table.

"Honghou might as well stay in the humble house for dinner, although it is some coarse tea and light rice. Xiaojun and his mother cook very well, and asked Honghou to stay and taste. ”

Sima Qian asked Liu Zhang to stay for dinner, and the food cooked by his mother and wife was really delicious.

Although it is not like the delicacies that the nobles eat, the nobles may not look down on these meals.

Their family really couldn't afford those precious ingredients, so Sima moved to the time.

His father will be back in two hours, and he will have his father tell him some history.

"Then I'll bother more."

Liu Zhang did not refuse, and also wanted to taste the cooking skills of Mrs. Sima and Liu Yi.

There was an opportunity to invite Sima Qian's family to his house as a guest, and Liu Zhang just sent a message to the simulation robot.

Let the artificial robot bring some candy and biscuits, as well as nuts that are more than 2,000 years old.

It is a small gift for Sima Qian, and some snacks are very suitable for children.

After a long time, several simulated robots came from outside the hospital.

They brought their things, and Sima Ying ran to the kitchen to tell her mother that someone was coming.

Liu Yi saw several people standing outside the courtyard, holding small boxes in their hands.
