The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family

Lady Jenson also nodded and sighed as she said, "It was recorded in the

genealogy that when my ancestor was a hundred and thirteen years old, he was not deaf, not blind, and was still physically fit. Everyone thought that he would live to be a hundred and twenty years old, but when he was a hundred and thirteen years old, he was sitting in front of the charcoal fire to take a nap after dinner when he suddenly said excitedly that Master Marcius was here to pick him up. He then passed away with a smile on his face."

Charlie said, "It seems that your ancestor really had a deep relationship with Master Marcius."

"Yes." The old lady said, "My ancestor left his instruction behind before he died. He said that the members of the Jenson family are not allowed to leave this place for generations, and we must always guard the tombs of Master Marcius's wife and son because Master Marcius told my ancestor that he will definitely come back for him and share the luck with him if he found a way to longevity one day..."

Charlie asked in a low voice, "Master Marcius has not shown up again since then?"

"No." The old lady shook her head and said, "The Jenson family members have not left this place for more than a thousand years, and no one has ever seen the person in the painting appearing here. Perhaps Master Marcius failed to find the way to longevity back then and died at the threshold of two hundred years old..." Charlie nodded and said, "That is not impossible. Although the Rejuvenating Pill is a divine medicine, it can't be superimposed on anyone without limit. One cannot live to be two hundred years old simply by relying on the Rejuvenating Pill alone." There was also no record of any methods that could make one live forever in the Apocalyptic Book. The Apocalyptic Book was more of a fundamental textbook on how to use Reiki and how to make Reiki even stronger to a certain extent of invincibility, but there were still no records of immortality in the Apocalyptic Book.

Moreover, there was no method that could make a person live for more than two hundred years in the Apocalyptic Book. Although there were a large number of records about divine pills, some of which could make a person have divine abilities, there was no such pill that could make a person live for three to five hundred years or even more than a thousand years.

Therefore, it was theoretically impossible for Master Marcius to still be alive after more than a thousand years in this world. His life would have likely stopped at a certain deadline.

This kind of person who spent his whole life cultivating may have died without a single person by his side. If he had lived in seclusion, in the end, he still would not have been able to escape death.

As Charlie thought of this, he asked the old lady again, "Lady Jenson, your family has never left this place for so many years?"

The old lady thought for a moment and spoke up, "My ancestor's instruction was not that we could not leave, but he hoped that we could stay here and also know about the affairs in this world at the same time. Therefore, the Jenson family has always attached great importance to studies. My father taught me to read and write when I was young, and I was later sent down the mountain to study during high school. In the intervening years, some descendants could not

restrain themselves and sneaked out, but the vast majority of people have been living here..." swnovel

Charlie asked her, "It must have been very hard to live here, right?"

The old lady smiled and said, “In addition to it being troublesome when we fall ill in this deep mountain, eating and drinking have never been an issue. Our family farms during the spring and summer, and we hunt in autumn and winter. We have always lived well, and this place has always been far away from the war. Therefore, no one has ever invaded this place in more than a thousand years, so we can ensure the continuity of our family's heritage."noveldrama

Charlie asked again, "Are the other people in this village also your family members?"

The old lady said, "There are now very few people with the last name 'Jenson' here."

With that said, she sighed and said, "The Jenson family has not been

prosperous for more than a thousand years, especially the males. In the beginning, we had many female descendants who wanted to get married. We could only find ways to recruit people into our family in order not to leave this place. There were then more and more people with different last names, and they were all strong male laborers. The yang gradually flourished, and the yin declined, so the Jenson family members' right to speak gradually became smaller and smaller." swnovel

"Many of the men who joined the family initially agreed that their children would follow their wife's last name, which was Jenson, but after the baby was born, they would then go back on their word. They would either insist on the baby taking their last name, or they would take the child away from here. There was no other way. The Jenson family members were all women, so they could not win them in strength and could only gradually let them go."

"If a man with a different last name

comes, they would have several children with different last names, and the children with a different last name would then marry other people with a different last name. As time passed, there were fewer and fewer people with the last name 'Jenson'. Although the people in this village are all related to the older generation, there is almost no one with the last name 'Jenson' anymore aside from me and my son." swnovel

Charlie nodded and asked again, "Do those people with different last names know

about Master Marcius?"
