章 169: Chapter 169: He is Alive Now

Distinguishing antique jewels is fairly easy.

Ancients valued authenticity, many jewels remain uncut and are directly set up.

Just like these two pieces of carnelian in my mother-in-law's hands.

Although Suizi didn't know where her father-in-law got these, she was sure that she had seen one of these rough stones before.

Right in her past life, at the border, on a man who looked very much like her father-in-law.

The man wore a ring on his ring finger, inlaid with one of the wider carnelian pieces.

Jadeite comes from the border, and the best carnelian also comes from nearby.

Carnelian, in other words, is red agate.

The best red agate is valuable, yet it doesn't compare to the worth of the finest jadeite.

Moreover, because it's such a vibrant red, few men wear it.

Given that man's status, it wouldn't have been unusual for him to wear an Imperial Jade, yet he wore red agate, not to mention it had an odd shape.

Suizi was curious and commented: the ring was quite unique.
