The Origin of Qingninghou Village in Dasi Town, Tianjin

Qingninghou Village belongs to Dasi Town. Located on the east bank of Duliujian River, it is connected to Xiaonanhe Village in Jason Wu Town in the north, Jianxin Village in Wangwenzhuang Town in the south and Beikou Village in the east. It is six kilometers away from Jinzi Highway, and there are rural roads connected to Jinzi Highway. Citing word-of-mouth information, the village was originally an ancient village in Jinyuan. According to legend, during the Tang and Song Dynasties, some descendants of Confucius once built a village here. The village site was chosen on the earthen port, and there were tall brick houses, which the villagers called "Kongjialou". Besides Kong, Li and Ye Zhao live here. Later, Kongjialou was destroyed by a military disaster.

In the early Ming Dynasty, after the "Jingnan War", the court implemented the resettlement policy. In the second year of Yongle (1404), five surnames, including Liu, Zhou, Wei, Dong and Shao, moved from Shanxi and Anhui to occupy Tianlizhuang. In the Ming Dynasty, villages were full of low-lying areas, and there was Shui Bo. If there is a rainy season, it will rain continuously. Villagers build dikes as dikes, but they are waterproof and flooded, so they are called "clear berths". Moreover, it is often called "Bai Causeway" (Bai Causeway) because it can be coated with chalk. In the middle of Qing dynasty, the water in the four directions gradually dried up and the land condensed. Villagers occasionally dig sand (gravel, commonly known as stone monkeys) under the surface. Years ago, the village was renamed Qingninghou.

After liberation, "Qing" was simplified to "Qing", which was called Qingning Houcun. It has not changed so far. At one time, it was used as "Qing Hou Ning", meaning Qing Ning Taiping or Qingyuan Anning. During War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, Qingning Houcun was a solid base for Chinese armed forces.

It's been 26 generations now. According to the Sun Shi genealogy of the village, Sun Xingqing, the ancestor of Sun Shi, moved to Sunjia Temple in the south of Wuding (now Huimin County, Shandong Province) in the early years of Kangxi.
