曾祖

My great-great-grandmother had Down syndrome (”Mongolism” as they called it in her day).

我的曾祖有唐氏症（他们那时候将之成为蒙古症）。

The brooch is a family heirloom which came down to her from her great-grandmother.

这枚胸针是家的家宝，是从曾祖那一代手中的。

This pair of bracelets were handed down from my greatgrandmother.

这副手镯是我曾祖来的。

To that time bystreet had already downfalled from its height of power and splendour，greatgrandfather bought-out a buckeen's official residence with his half of life hoardind.

那时，胡同已经从鼎盛走向衰败，曾祖父用半生的积蓄买了一户破落贵族的王府。
