Chapter 605 The Origin of the Nan Family
Xu Nange and Huo Beiyan were sitting in the study of Situ's family.
Mr. Situ had already driven Situ Chen and Situ Nanyin out of the room, and found someone to guard the door.
Mr. Situ checked several times at the door that no one would overhear their conversation, and then walked up to Xu Nange.
Seeing his solemn look, Xu Nange couldn't help but sit up straight.
Seeing this, Mr. Situ asked, "You really don't remember what happened to the Nan family? I can see clearly from Nan Wei! Didn't you say that you all spent time in the Nan family before you were five years old?"
Xu Nange did not explain her sister's affairs to Mr. Situ, and could not bear to let the old man know that she had a granddaughter but she had passed away.
She spoke directly: "Well, I had a fever when I was a child. When I woke up, I forgot about it. I only knew that I had a guardian who told me the news about the Nan family. My adoptive parents were both servants of the Nan family. They passed away. I died early, and since I have mediocre qualifications and am ready to live a mediocre life, I rarely mention things about the Nan family."
Mr. Situ suddenly realized: "So that's it."
Xu Nange asked: "So, do you know where the Nan family is? What kind of family is it?"
Mr. Situ slowly spoke: "The Nan family, that is a very mysterious country. I only know that they have survived for thousands of years since records began. They seem to have disappeared in the torrent of history, but in fact they have always been there. exist."
Xu Nange was stunned for a moment and listened carefully.
Mr. Situ started from the beginning: "The Nan family is very secretive. They were a family that prospered 2,500 years ago..."
Two thousand five hundred years ago... this is a long enough history!
Mr. Situ continued: "Their family is a matrilineal clan."
Xu Nange was stunned: "Matriarchal clan?"
Matriarchal clan, also known as matrilineal society, is a very ancient era. People wanted to stay together in order to keep warm. In addition, the thinking at that time had not evolved and private lives were chaotic. As a result, children only knew their mothers but not their fathers. Therefore, according to the maternal inheritance of property, A product that just emerged.
Later, as society progressed and productivity became stronger, this system was almost eliminated.
In the farming era, men's physical superiority was revealed, and women needed to depend on men to survive. Matriarchal society was gradually replaced by patriarchal society.
Until now, Chinese people still believe that boys inherit the family business, which leads to preference for boys over girls.
The Nan family is actually a matrilineal clan?
Xu Nange felt a little enlightened at this moment. No wonder his mother’s surname was Nan, his grandmother’s surname was Nan, and his sister’s surname was also Nan!
She originally thought this was a special case in their family. After all, she didn't have a grandfather. It was understandable that her mother took her grandmother's surname Nan. Her sister was snatched away by someone from the Nan family, so it was normal for her to have the surname Nan.
It turns out that all descendants of the Nan family have the surname Nan!
In addition, matrilineal society is inherited through women, so in the Nan family, girls have a higher status than boys?
Seeing that she understood what he meant, Mr. Situ continued: "In their family, girls inherit the family business, because the girls in their family are both noble and humble."
Xu Nange was stunned: "Why do you say that?"
Mr. Situ sighed: "They believe in blood and feel that only girls can completely inherit their family's characteristics from their mothers. Every hundred years, their family will indeed have a genius who will lead their family to a more glorious future. . But... there are too many girls in their family."
Voice-over, the Nan family is very powerful, so the girls in their family are very noble.
Someone like Nan Wei could boss Mr. Situ around.
But because there are too many, it doesn’t seem that important.
In fact, in the final analysis... the most important person in the Nan family should be the head of the family!
Xu Nange understood a lot of things at this moment...
Why does Nanwei want to fight with her? Why does she want to work hard to develop her power in China, expand her connections, and tightly bind the five major families in Kyoto to her.
All of this is for...
"Selection of the Nan family's heir?"
Xu Nange said it directly.
When Mr. Situ heard this, he smiled: "Nange, you are really smart. You don't remember anything, but you understand what it means just by relying on what I said... Yes, every successor of the Nan family The selection is very strict. The Nan family has developed for thousands of years and has accumulated wealth that is unimaginable. If the heirs are not wise enough, the Nan family will easily fall apart. Therefore, their heirs will be taken to all parts of the country from an early age. Commonly known as exile, in the end, only the most powerful one can return home and inherit the family business. "
Xu Nange narrowed his eyes.
Huo Beiyan, who had been listening next to him, sighed: "What an amazing inheritance method."
They both looked over.
Huo Beiyan explained calmly: "Today is the information age. It is developing very fast and new things are emerging in an endless stream. In recent years, technology companies and real estate tycoons have made a lot of money...
If the Nan family blindly sticks to its status quo or just develops itself, it will fall into a state of isolation. However, they have placed their heirs all over the world and assigned them tasks...
Let everyone get to know and make friends with the most powerful families in each place, and bind them together to fight with external forces.
If every person with the right of inheritance is like you, Nan Ge, and each is bound to the top power of their own country, it is equivalent to using the world to select heirs for them!
The final winner can also bring the wealth outside back to the Nan family, and the Nan family is really a sure win! "
As soon as he explained this, Xu Nan Ge immediately understood what he meant, "So, we girls are all heirs raised outside by the Nan family?"
Huo Beiyan nodded: "It can even be said that the Nan family is using the world to raise Gu, and in the end only the Gu King can win! And after so many twists and turns and struggles, the Gu King who can still win again can be imagined How powerful it is, no wonder the Nan family can survive from such an ancient era to the present..."
Xu Nan Ge frowned again: "But what exactly does the Nan family do? What qualifications do they have, or even what resources do they have, to let the world raise Gu for them! It's even so mysterious that ordinary people may not even know their existence?"
"This is something you have to ask Mr. Situ. "
Huo Beiyan and Xu Nange looked at Grandpa Situ again, and Huo Beiyan asked directly: "The Situ family has always been peaceful, why do they want to join the Nan family now?"
The fact that Grandpa Situ decided to marry into the Nan family means that he must know something!
