The first origin

It originated from the Feng family, came from Jian Xiu, the minister of the first emperor in ancient times, and was named after his ancestors. Qixiu was a legendary courtier under the first emperor Fu Xishi in ancient times. In Qu Sao, he wrote: "Xie Pei is willing to draw a conclusion, and I ordered Qi Xiu to be reasonable. . Note: Jian Xiu is also the minister of Fuxi. " Fu and his sister Nu Wa's greatest contribution to human development is to formulate a reasonable marriage system. "No marriage with the same surname" is the wisdom of the wise men of that era. Thus, the matchmaker was born, that is, the person who communicated between men and women and promoted marriage. However, Fu ordered Jian Xiu to be a matchmaker, indicating that Jian Xiu was a good matchmaker, so people in later generations called him Jian Xiu. For example, there is a sentence in "Strange Stories from a Lonely Studio, New Shi Siniang" edited by Pu Songling: "Life is unforgettable, and I will go to the grave to pay homage to it." Refers to the merits and demerits of Jian Xiu.

Among Jianxiu's descendants, there are those with ancestral surnames, and most of them are engaged in the media industry, which is one of the very old surnames. Most people of the Jian clan respect the sword as their ancestors.

The second origin

"Jane" and "Wan" Uncle Jane, surnamed Zi, were originally famous figures in the Song Dynasty during the Spring and Autumn Period. He is a close friend of Priscilla and has helped him many times. Later, he recommended Uncle Jian to King Mu of Qin, and Uncle Jian later became a famous figure in Qin State. Together with Priscilla, he helped Qin Mugong to educate the people, reform and reform, promote the good and eliminate the evil, which made the State of Qin stronger and stronger, and Qin Mugong finally gained the hegemony in the Spring and Autumn Period.

The descendants of Uncle Jian are proud of their ancestors and take their own names as surnames, which are passed down from generation to generation.

The third origin

According to the history book "Customs", Wei Zhong in the Warring States Period. Wei was once very powerful after the "Three Jin Dynasties". At that time, Wei was an important adviser during the reign of Wei monarch Weiss (from 446 BC to 397 BC). His surname is Ji, and he is contemporary with the famous.

In the classic "Liu Xiang said that Yuan Zun Xian", Zhou Zhong's views on the relationship between monarch and minister and the so-called "loyal minister" were recorded: "Wei Wenhou worked as a doctor in Quyang and drank a lot, sighing,' I have nothing to lose." He raised his wine again and said, "I invite you to float the monarch." Hou Wen said, "Why?" Yes:' I heard that parents with life don't know their filial sons; A king who has a way doesn't know a loyal minister. To be the king of Yu Rang? Hou Wen said,' Great! Drink it and float, chew it but don't let it go, saying,' Uncle Bao, without Guan Zhong, is a minister, so he has the merit of Yu Rang.' "Jian zhong's opinion dispelled many concerns, promoted the process of Wei, Han and Zhao to carve up the state of Jin, and made great achievements.

Among the descendants in the middle of the week, some took their ancestors' names as surnames and passed them down from generation to generation.

The ancestors were named Jian Xiu, Jian Shu and Zhong Jian.

Surname, unified ancestral home; Historical people are not divided by their descendants; The surname is also a symbol of family blood. "A Brief Introduction to Tongzhi Clans" said: Before the three generations (Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties), surnames were divided into two, with men taking surnames and women (women) taking surnames. So, don't be high or low. Noble people have surnames, while bitches have no surnames. Surnames are so different from marriage that there is a difference between sharing surnames and sharing surnames. If the surnames are different, the marriage can be passed; People with different surnames cannot get married. After three generations, the surnames became one, and they did not intermarry, depending on the nobility. Note: "Noble people have surnames": Jiande, the son of heaven, was born in the place where his surnames (such as branch surnames) were given. If a husband keeps his surname, he will keep his family, and the world will never stop worshipping him, and no country will have it.
