A junk collection station floats in my mind

Chapter 273 Check the Genealogy! 【First update】

Chen Muyu's name is at the end of the family tree. He is of the senior generation. According to the ranking in the family, he should actually be called Chen Gaoyu, but in this day and age, few people add seniority to their names. Back then, my grandfather named Chen Muyu When I was a child, my parents mentioned that the high character was not very pleasant, and it was only later that my grandfather finalized the use of the animal husbandry character.

In the genealogy, according to the local tradition, people with foreign surnames are not included, and women are not included. That is to say, grandchildren, nephews, etc. are not included. There is only Chen Muyu, the only seedling.

After all, the third uncle was not married yet, so it was even more difficult to talk about having a son. The children of the two aunts, cousin Zhang Mingwei and the others entered the genealogy of another family, and it was impossible to leave their names in the genealogy of the Chen family.

Of course, the Chen family is not limited to Grandpa Chen Muyu. Several other families in the Chen family's old house are also in the genealogy. They are considered to be left by grandpa's uncles and brothers. They are all from the same ancestor, but have been passed down for many After generations, the relationship has weakened a lot.

If grandpa is still there, he can still be considered close, and now his father and third uncle are still there, so he can be considered close, but when it comes to Chen Muyu's generation, to be honest, it's rare to see each other for a few years, and that kind of kinship is already very alienated.

Especially now that these uncles and uncles' families have either lost their descendants, or they have left Chen Jiayan, and they will not even come back for the New Year, let alone meet, and they don't even have a phone number.

There are also records of these families in the genealogy, but only my father and his generation are recorded, and there are not many people going down. I think my grandfather should have worked hard when revising the family tree, but the recent situation of the families next door is also the same. Not clear.

But this is not important, if there are any secrets hidden in the family tree, it must not be in Chen Muyu's generation.

The biggest suspect is still in the grandfather's generation.

Grandpa's generation is a word-watching generation.

People of that generation, even up to my father and the others, named their names fairly well, and the middle character in the name probably ranked first.

Chen Jianzhong, Chen Jianli, father and third uncle are all Jianzi generations.

There are 22 genealogical records of the Jianzi generation of the same family. Except for some who died long ago, Chen Muyu has basically seen all of them.

These 22 people are passed down from six of the eight uncles and brothers in my grandfather's generation, and my grandfather ranked second in the generation of Guanzi.

The three words Chen Guanhai are impressively listed.

The remaining seven of the eight are Guanhua, Guanyun, Guanhong, Guanqing, Guanfeng, Guanming, and Guanyue.

Among them, the four grandparents of Qingfengmingyue are from one family, Guanhua and Guanhong are from one family, Guanyun and grandpa Guanhai are from one family.

Among these seven people, Chen Muyu has heard of the names of six people, and he has seen a few of them. He still has some impressions in his memory, but it happened many years ago. The only ones who may still be alive now are probably only eight people. Grandpa Chen Guanyue.

That's the one in the next room in the old house, but five or six years ago, the eighth grandpa's children took him out to live in him. I heard that he went to Jiangsu Province, thousands of miles away, and never came back.

Grandpa Chen Guanhua has no descendants left, and the third grandfather Chen Guanhong has no descendants records.

Chen Guanhong?
Chen Muyu frowned slightly, never heard of this name?

Go further up, Qingzi generation.

clear?
Seeing this word, Chen Muyu's eyebrows twitched into one strand, as if he had discovered some new continent.

It can't be such a coincidence, can it?
In the Chen family genealogy, the previous generation of Guanzi was the Qingzi generation, and he had learned from Gong Daquan earlier that the old mountain owner of Gelaoshan was also named Chen, Chen Qingxian.

And it was just such a coincidence that Jin Jianfeng told himself the night before yesterday that his teacher's wife was called Chen Guanyu, and there was also a teacher uncle named Chen Guanshan who was not very flexible.

The generation of Qing characters is connected with the generation of Guan characters. Although it cannot be ruled out that this is a coincidence, it is too coincidental.

Coupled with the fact that his grandfather had been to Gelaoshan before his death, Chen Muyu couldn't help but doubt whether the Chen family in Gelaoshan was the same family as them.

If this is the case, it makes sense why Grandpa went to Gelaoshan at that time.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Chen Muyu continued to study the family tree.

There are thirteen ancestors of the Qing generation recorded in the genealogy.

It contains records of birth and death years, rankings, and some simple life stories. Among them, three died young, and eight died young, most of whom died on the battlefield.

Only three survived. The second great-grandfather, Chen Qinglong, lived to be 62 years old and gave birth to Guanhua and Guanhong. The ninth great-grandfather, Chen Qingxia, lived to be 79 years old and gave birth to Qingfengmingyue.

Chen Muyu's great-grandfather, named Chen Qingzhi, was the third eldest, and lived to be 81 years old, which can be regarded as the end of his life.

"There's something wrong here."

When carefully reading the deeds of the thirteen great-grandfathers, Chen Muyu noticed something was not quite right.

There is a problem with ranking.

There are thirteen people recorded in this generation, but the last one is ranked fourteen.

There is one less?
After the fourth child, it is directly the sixth child, without a fifth great-grandfather.

Is it a typo, or is one of them invited out of the genealogy?

In the hearts of the elders, genealogy is such an important thing, there should be no mistakes or omissions, and in Chen Muyu's impression, grandpa is such a rigorous person.

According to common sense, if the fifth great-grandfather made some mistakes and was invited out of the genealogy, there should be only a few words in the record.

But Chen Muyu checked online, but there is no relevant record.

At this time, Chen Muyu had to wonder, if grandpa revised the family tree, would he just delete this place?

Could Chen Qingxian from Gelao Mountain be the fifth great-grandfather?

"What are you looking at?"

When Chen Muyu was thinking, Niu Erye came in at some point.

"Second Lord." Chen Muyu called out.

He casually picked up the genealogy of Chen's family on the table, closed it, and put it back on the shelf. Niu Erye sighed, "Don't look at it, your mother is calling you to go home for dinner."

Looking at the time, it was already afternoon, and the sky outside the window was almost dark.

"Second Master, do you know Chen Qingxian?" Chen Muyu didn't leave in a hurry, thinking that Niu Erye was old enough, and he was friends with Grandpa, so maybe he could know something about the past of the Chen family.

"never heard of that."

Second Master Niu shook his head directly, and smiled, "Why, can't you find something from your family tree?"

Chen Muyu nodded and said, "There is one person missing in the great-grandfather's generation, and there is no record in the genealogy. Speaking of it, this great-grandfather should be my grandfather's fifth uncle."

"I haven't heard from your grandfather." Niu Erye shook his head, "I'm an outsider, not a native, and I don't know much about your family. There are still a few older people in the village. You can Go ask them."
