This story and the names of the buildings that appear in the story are all fictitious. In addition, Guanqian Street in reality is very different from what I describe in the article. The Guanqian Street in the article is a product of my imagination.
On the fifteenth day of the seventh lunar month, as ordered by my father, I returned to my hometown to worship at the ancestral hall while returning from a business trip.
The ancestral hall is in my hometown in Suzhou. After a few people of my grandfather's generation crossed the ocean to make a living in France, they didn't go back for about seventy or eighty years. On the eve of my departure, my father called me to me and gave me a jade pendant and an jade seal. He asked me to take it to the ancestral hall and let the people there keep it safely, because it was something my grandfather had never forgotten to take back to his hometown before he passed away.
