Every place should have an established way to express intimacy. Just like a key, a title and a gesture, you can open the gap between you and the locals. If you are in Jiangxi, especially in southern Jiangxi, which is known as the "elegant atmosphere of Zhongzhou", there is a secret of good communication with local people-call your cousin kindly! Don't underestimate this seemingly rustic title. It is a bridge between strangers in Jiangxi. Maybe the hospitable host will invite you to taste the unique "tea smashing" of Hakka people at home! Jiangxi people themselves use "cousin" instead of "comrade" and "fellow villager", which adds a little kindness to simplicity. Jiangxi people's favor for "Lao Biao" has a long history, and the earliest statement may be traced back to the totem era. According to the examination, "table" refers to the wood of the old times, such as "Twelve Years of Gong Xuan": "The corpse will be collected under the wood tomorrow." Du Note: "Table refers to wood." However, the excavation of Wucheng site in Qingjiang River reveals that there are "hundreds of column holes of different sizes, mostly arranged in rows or staggered" in the laterite altar in Shang Dynasty. This is obviously the primitive fetishism totem pole belief of Dongyi ethnic group in the Jianghuai valley and the extension area of the south of the Yangtze River. From the middle of Shang Dynasty to the end of Warring States Period, Lao Biao was recorded in writing. Therefore, "Lao Biao" is the vernacular expression of totem list, and it is the memory residue of totem impression of Jiangxi ethnic group. Although such totem tracing can push forward the origin of "Lao Biao", after all, it involves many ancient documents and historical research, and few people can understand and accept it. Ordinary people are more inclined to understand "cousin" as a cousin according to today's way of thinking. But is it the cousin of Jiangxi province or the cousin relationship between Jiangxi and neighboring provinces? In legend, it is two blooming flowers, one for each table. Some people say that the name "Lao Biao" was spontaneously initiated by Hakka people in Jiangxi to adapt to the unfamiliar living environment. Since the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Han people in the Central Plains have been relegated, stationed, or looking for new living space, and moved south. Most of them settled in the mountainous areas of Fujian, Guangdong and Jiangxi, which are heavily blocked by Guanshan. The aborigines call themselves "sitting tigers", while the Hakkas (that is, the Han people in the Central Plains) are called "mountain tigers". The natives fight for the mountains, and the two tigers are fierce. Hakkas of different nationalities, surnames and clans cleverly use the name "cousin" to strengthen their feelings with other Hakkas, so as to achieve the goal of uniting hand in hand, sharing weal and woe. Over time, "old cousin" has become a common practice and has become a kind name for Hakka people in Jiangxi to enhance friendship and establish new interpersonal relationships.
