Now Jiaxue is a little uncertain, this Xiao Xuan is so interested in her, is it because he wants to get back the bracelet of their Xiao family, Bujuan is really interested in her.

Maybe she really is being affectionate. Although Xiao Xuan is very playful, he doesn't necessarily pick and choose, and even if he has a boyfriend, he will grab it openly!

The possibility that this bracelet attracted him should be bigger, right?

With this idea, Jiaxue didn't reject Xiao Xuan so much. Seeing Xiang Hanchen's embarrassment, she smoothed things over and said, "I've changed the bracelets so much that they are almost beyond recognition. It's fine if the imprints are worn off."

Xiang Hanchen's complexion got better now.

He was really blocked in his heart, but after Jiaxue said this, he knew that he was really in a corner: he was provoked by Xiao Xuan.

The matter of the imprint is nothing at all. It is clear that the ownership of this thing belongs to their Xiang family, so it is a matter of little effort to use it to grind out the characters of Xiao and change them into characters of Xiang.

Xiao Xuan restrained his cynical smile at this moment, and said very seriously: "This pair of bracelets is indeed very important to our Xiao family. It is a treasure recorded in the genealogy, so my father wanted to buy it back. At any cost, you can bid twice the market price."

Xiang Hanchen had already given the bracelet to Jiaxue, so it was absolutely impossible for him to take it back and sell it. Besides, he didn't have the right to do so. The bracelet had been passed down in the Xiang family for several generations. Although it wasn't the only one, it was also An old item of heirloom level.

So without even thinking about it, he emphasized again: "The Xiang family is not short of this money!"

Xiao Xuan looked at Xiang Hanchen, then at Jiaxue, and suddenly felt a little deep: "Would you like to hear the story of this bracelet?"

Xiang Hanchen didn't speak.

Jiaxue said: "This has been passed down to the family for so many generations, why are you still obsessed with buying it back? It was sold at the beginning."

Xiao Xuan turned his head away, let out a long breath, and said, "Without this pair of bracelets, there would be no Xiao family, let alone me, Xiao Xuan."

Jiaxue: "..."

Xiang Hanchen was obviously disdainful: "Is there such a saying?"

"Looks like I really have to tell the story in the genealogy, which is absolutely true."

Jiaxue nodded.

Chinese people have a strong family concept, and genealogy is not taken seriously, and it is only a matter of one or two generations.

Pushing up to the grandparents, there are many people who have participated in things like continuation of genealogy, genealogy, and continuation of generations.

It is also generally very important, especially in rural areas (the more backward the place is, the more traditional it is) and families with famous ancestors.

This kind of thing is not a male heir, and he is not eligible to participate. Even if the male population in the family is thin and his father died early, he can only go to a three-foot boy. This is taken care of.

But if you want a woman, it is your disrespect to the whole family. If you meet someone with a bad temper, you dare to see your branch as lost.

What can be recorded in the genealogy is generally a major event.

Xiao Xuan said: "In fact, after careful examination, our family hall is the 'Dinghan Hall', which is the descendant of Xiao He, the three great heroes of the early Han Dynasty, after the most famous family of the Xiao family."

Jiaxue really didn't understand, but she knew that the more famous the ancestors were, the more important the inheritance of the genealogy was. Xiao Xuan said yes, that's it, she was just a little confused: "Xiao Xuan is your stage name. ?”

So he is Xiao with the cursive prefix!

Xiao Xuan shook his head: "My ID card has the character Xiao. Xiao is a very interesting character. In the Chu and Han Dynasties, Xiao and Xiao were actually in parallel. But later, there were fewer and fewer people with the surname Xiao. Later, almost No. Our family has the surname Xiao since the Qing Dynasty."

Jiaxue's curiosity was really aroused, because the more Xiao Xuan talked, the more confused he became, and there seemed to be a story in it!

Xiao Xuan explained with a smile: "After the Chu and Han Dynasties, the surname Xiao did not fall, and there were almost no people there. Now there are more people surnamed Xiao around us. In fact, many of them are affected by simplified characters, thinking that the cursive prefix Xiao is a small prefix. Xiao’s variant characters, traditional characters, etc., were simplified to Xiao when registering household registration. In fact, more than three generations were actually Xiao characters with cursive characters. The Xiao in our family was separated since the middle of the Qing Dynasty, but this bracelet proves that The most important thing is the origin of our "Xiao" character -- it is also regarded as one of the examples that Xiao is Xiao by many people with the surname Xiao. One of the bracelets is engraved with the word "Xiao" and the other is engraved with the word "Xiao". "

Before people tell stories, they tell things solemnly and incorporate many ancient cultural heritages, which makes them a little sacred.

Ding Wenya also looked curious when she saw Jiaxue, but neither Jiaxue nor Xiang Hanchen could say they were interested in Xiao Xuan's story.

Disregarding her status as an employee, she asked very curiously, "Did you split up with the bracelet?"

Xiao Xuan said with a smile: "The 'literary prison' was prevalent in the Qing Dynasty, and our ancestor Xiao's family was involved in it. At that time, our ancestor was arrested and imprisoned, but he rescued a young man in his early years, and later became a court official. Important officials. At a time of crisis, he thought of asking for help. Before Manmen was arrested and imprisoned, he wanted to find Nana’s important officials for help. At that time, he took off his wife’s bracelet and gave it to his wife’s family. She must take the life of the master and the whole family as the most important thing, and take this token, and go to the capital to find Mr. Liu."

Xiao Xuan's story is not very long, but it is quite tortuous.

At that time, the Xiao family was just a jade craftsman for the imperial court, their wealth and life, and the honor and disgrace of the sect were all tied to the imperial court, so how could there be any resentment?

It's just that the literary inquisition at that time was too harsh, so they were involved.

After the Xiao family was imprisoned, she only escaped from the maid under the cover of everyone. She was the dowry maid of Mrs. Xiao who grew up together, and she was extremely loyal and sincere to the mistress.

The traffic conditions at that time were simply incomparable to the present one. She escaped in a hurry and didn't have many valuable things with her - even if there were, it would be difficult for a weak woman to protect her.

The Qing Dynasty was also a dynasty that had the most severe feudal oppression on women. How easy was it to walk to the capital with only her bound feet?

But the master's house is full of servants, and that's two or three hundred people's lives. Life is at stake. She is rushing to the capital with her life.

Since there was no way to guide her, she could only beg all the way, claiming to find relatives.

After going through untold hardships, he finally lived up to his master's entrustment and brought the token to Mr. Liu.

Mr. Liu is a man who knows how to repay his kindness. Knowing that the Xiao family is in trouble, he whispered in the emperor's ear several times, and finally got the holy metaphor and sentenced the Xiao family not guilty.

At this time, the maid, because of the exhaustion of traveling all the way, became completely ill after she relaxed her tense heart.

After the master knew about it, he sent someone to Beijing to pick her up. The master was grateful for her loyalty and valued this maid very much.

After going back and forth, the two fell in love before.

If this maid is not kind to the master, it is not a big deal. As the woman's dowry maid, she will definitely be a big girl in the future. It's just that Xiao is newly married and is still in the sweet period, so before she saves her Haven't opened my face yet.

But it is different now, she is not only a maid, but also a hero and benefactor of the Xiao family.

And now that the master has fallen in love with her deeply again, he no longer wants her to be wronged: he wants to treat her as at least an equal wife, or even the only wife, so that he will not desecrate the beauty.

But she is also the dowry maid of Xiao's first wife, her love for the master and loyalty to the mistress made her in a dilemma.

Later, she took the bracelet given by her master and left Xiao's house far away alone, planning to go to a place where no one could find her, and die alone.

But after she left, she found out that she was pregnant.

Later, she gave birth to a baby boy, and she called her husband's Xiao family to the outside world. Because of the famine, she got separated and raised her son alone. She even regarded the love bracelet given by the owner as a family heirloom. Carve the characters "Xiao" and "Xiao" on it.

Xiao Xuan is the descendant of this maid.

This branch of the "Xiao" family also claims to be in the same line as the "Dinghantang".

Two generations later, the descendants of the Xiao clan found the Xiao clan's ancestral hall with their bracelets, and they were finally included in the genealogy—of course, it was more because of their talent for jade carving that the elders of the Xiao clan recognized them .

This bracelet has thus become a family heirloom of the Xiao family that is only passed on to the eldest daughter-in-law.

Not only is it a treasure, but it also represents the inheritance of the Xiao family!

In the last years of the Qing Dynasty, after the failure of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom Uprising, the Xiao family was imprisoned because of a seal, which was considered to be related to the "rebels" of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom.

After the two stories were finished, everyone present fell silent.

This pair of bracelets is obviously much more important to the Xiao family than to the Xiang family.

What Xiao Xuan said was not an exaggeration at all, without this pair of bracelets, there would be no lineage of the Xiao family.

Now that the Xiao family has developed again, they will naturally want to buy back the family heirlooms that were sold at the beginning.

Xiang Hanchen was silent for a long time before saying, "My grandfather must have known this story, right?"

Xiao Xuan didn't hide anything, nodded and said, "Yes, but the old man is still not willing to sell it back to us."

Xiang Hanchen said: "Grandpa disagrees, but I can't possibly agree."

It's not yet his turn to be the master of the Xiang family.

more importantly……

His mother had given it to Jiaxue, and after going through so much, the bracelet had become a token of love between the two.

There is no reason to take back the token and sell it back to the original owner!

It's not that the Xiang family lacks the money.

Jiaxue's hand touched the bracelet involuntarily, feeling really uncomfortable.

Before, she only knew that it was a family heirloom of the Xiang family, and she cherished it, but now a young man who appeared out of nowhere recognized it as a family heirloom of their family, and it was also related to the love story, so it should be passed on to others Wife, how can this make her not awkward!
