What travelers say:

According to the "Li's genealogy", during the Ming Dynasty, the young Li Shengxuan followed his parents to avoid the war, migrated south, and his father died on the way, and he and his mother fell to Qingling Lake. Li Shengxuan leaned on a flat burden, picked his back and shoulders, went to the streets to do a small business, support his mother for the elderly. The local Hu family saw him as a hardworking and kind-hearted man, so they recruited him to be a door-to-door son-in-law. According to traditional customs, the groom should return to the family name and become a successor to Hu's family. Years later, Xianhui Renyi's wife saw her husband and remembered Li's ancestors, and finally persuaded her parents, and changed back to Li's surname husband to come to Qingling Lake to open a barren house, and flourish. The village was thus named West Lake Li's family. Today, the village is home to more than 500 households and more than 2,000 Li descendants, and the "Li's genealogy" warns future generations not to forget their original origins and homesickness and the ancestors have been passed down.
