Once, bees were divided into buckets, and the Ning family discovered that their own bees had run a bucket (a group) to the home of a person surnamed Tan. The two families had a dispute over this matter, and due to the Ning family being a prominent family with a large number of people, they injured the person surnamed Tan. The Tan family sued the Ning family to the county government. At that time, the county magistrate found out through investigation that the Tan family did indeed steal the bees from the Ning family, and the Ning family kept 99 buckets of bees in the bee bucket, which was rare. Therefore, the Tan family was ordered to return one bucket of bees to the Ning family, bringing the total to 100 buckets. At the same time, the Ning family was commended by the county magistrate and ordered to rename Muzhugou as Fengtongyan (the location of Fengtong Township Government)
