Why did Jiangxi and Hunan become old cousins?

We must first explain the word "cousin", which means kinship with a cousin, cousin, etc. This is one of the most intimate terms and commendations. No, it's pronounced Biao. Nor is it a derogatory term for this type of bitch.

The reason is that at the end of Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of Ming Dynasty, many areas in eastern Hunan were deserted due to war, and a large number of Jiangxi people moved to Hunan. Later, in the Ming and Qing Dynasties, a large number of Jiangxi people moved in, and even nine out of ten households in some places came from Jiangxi. When these descendants of Jiangxi people who moved to Hunan returned to Jiangxi to pay homage to their ancestral graves, they liked to call local Jiangxi people cousins, meaning cousins.

This is the legend of Guan Hu Guang in Jiangxi, and it is also the most popular statement about the origin of the word Lao Biao.
