Because Cheng Jinzhou's grandfather is still in the field, the main sacrifice is served by the elders of the clan, and the rites and sacrifices are also from the other two branches, and the main worship is served by Cheng Yun'an Cheng Daprefect.

Just looking at the smile on Cheng's mother's face and the envious expressions of others, you know that this is a rather honorable duty.

The clansmen present are not without a higher position than Cheng Yunan, but according to the status of the clan, Cheng Yunan is the best.

The area around the ancestral hall is lush and green, and if it is not placed in the middle of the ranking, it is not an exaggeration to describe it as elegant.

Cheng Jinzhou silently followed everyone to do all kinds of actions, listening to Xiaole Eight Immortals, except for the gentlemen with their own duties, there was not much to do for others.

From a child's point of view, Cheng Jinzhou did a decent job.

The whole morning ended with a long chant, walking and bowing.

When it was time to sing the sacrificial text, Cheng Jinzhou had the opportunity to secretly look at the guests who came to congratulate, which was just a comfort for the sore neck.

The most striking of the guests should have been the three star sorcerers, the old gentleman in front of the fight, dressed in a dark black floor-length robe, with cloth boots shaped like a costume on his toes, and no extra ornaments on his body, which was very much in line with the atmosphere of the day.

The other two wore only short gray knee-length robes, some of which resembled the short evening dresses of later generations. The whole body was tightly wrapped, facing Cheng Jinzhou sideways, and he couldn't see his face clearly. However, the cold and arrogant expressions, the nine-palace abacus and the abacus bag that they always carry with them all show their identity.

Among the three, the old gentleman was more eye-catching, not only for his simple and luxurious clothes, but also because of the tattoo on the corner of his neck. Normal wealthy families, if they want to use a little astrology for convenience, they often get tattoos in hidden places on the body, and only astromagicians who pay attention to efficiency and ability will choose the most appropriate place to tattoo rather than the best-looking.

Cheng Jinzhou stuck out his tongue slightly, and looked at the others, the gifts of the star warlocks will definitely be accepted into the public, especially those gifts that they don't know and are not familiar with, and they will not be selected for the children at the uprooting ceremony, what he hopes to get the most is still something that can be exchanged for a lot of money.

Money, Comrade Marx said, represents social labor -- avoiding labor and allowing others to work more is naturally the most simple demand of Cheng Jinzhou, a non-party member.

On the left side of the crowd, standing were the officials who came to watch the ceremony, except for two or three middle and high-ranking officials from Hexi, as well as retired officials who had already paid tribute to the office, there were no local high-ranking officials - among the 27-level civil officials, the 12th grade, in Shaonan, only the Cheng family. The latter all stand in the center.

On the right wing of the ancestral hall are the visiting noble families and even members of the Holy See. Compared with the officials on the left, these people seem to be more than noble, and the real power is insufficient, even in the Holy See that prevails in the extreme west, the influence of the Great Xia Dynasty is limited to the cultivation of star warlocks - quickly create a large number of cheap ordinary star warlocks, this concept and method are basically spread by the Holy See.

Among these people, Cheng Jinzhou showed the angry Xiao Zhengtai the day before yesterday. He should have been followed by his father. The adult is extremely modest, just like most of the nobles in this world, the son has raised his eyebrows, and he is full of resentment towards the surrounding qiē.

"The rebellious period came early!" Cheng Jinzhou secretly sighed, feeling helpless about his failure to be precocious.

After the singing of the words "inheriting the past and opening up the future, the eternal fragrance", the sacrificial text was finally sung, and because of the large number of people in the clan, the single offering ceremony became each gift, but it was also very fast.

The master of ceremonies shouted loudly, "Finish the ceremony".

Governor Cheng Jin shushed, but he heard a lot of such voices around. Looking at the place where Cheng's mother was standing, the ladies were also staggering.

Old Mrs. Cheng was dressed like the lord of the Dragon Palace, and walked in from outside the tent, and there was a burst of greetings around her.

"Thank you all for coming. The Cheng family prepared a thin wine, please rest your feet first. The old lady of the Cheng family thanked her gracefully. She has seen the world with the old man in the capital, when the momentum was at its peak, she also saw the queen in the palace, and was given the title of marquise, which is louder than the name of the old man's "Lieutenant Envoy of the Southern Governor of Daxia Town", in a small place like Shaonan, it has long been the main object of people's envy after dinner.

The servants guided the guests to the sides, and the scene gradually fell silent.

Only the Cheng family was left, and Mrs. Cheng said slowly: "The ancestors have blessed me, I dare not forget for a moment, and I am also very happy to see so many descendants today." ”

The old lady said with some emotion, her body trembled slightly, and said: "Fame and fortune are the hard work of the predecessors, and now, your grandfather is still on the southwest front, and Cheng Bingnuo of the Longzi branch is even more martyred." ”

In this era, wars were not fierce, and the deaths of nobles were rare, and the old lady said when she heard someone whining below.

The master of ceremonies coughed lightly, the old lady waved her hand, signaled that it was okay, and continued: "The Cheng family has been inherited for thousands of years, after all, it will be passed on to the juniors. Alright, Jinju, you go first. ”

The passage on one side has already been opened, Cheng Jinzhou was excited, even if the Cheng family lives in a corner, the family is not called in vain, pay a little attention to one or two, and the things that are taken out at leisure are worth hundreds of taels of silver, and in the future generations, at least tens of thousands of yuan are worth of tens of thousands of yuan, and such things are happy at any time.

According to the rules, he was about to kowtow to his grandmother to thank him, but someone said in an unhurried voice at this time: "Auntie, pulling out Qing is to motivate younger generations to do their homework, this is the first honor, Jinzhou is naturally qualified as a grandson, but it can't chill the hearts of other children, and the Cheng family is not one of his grandchildren." ”

Cheng Jinzhou followed the prestige, it was the Longzi branch that the old lady said earlier, and the other sister-in-law, Cheng Bingxun.

Speaking of this Cheng Bingxun, he is also a figure of the Cheng family, the Cheng family has a total of four, namely Qingyue Yuanlong, the four branches share the property of the public middle school, and each has its own financial resources, plus the official position, it should be good, maybe it is too good, Mr. Cheng Bingxun is looking forward to the name of benevolence.

As his son-in-law, he received the most acres of property, but he was not good at management, and there were many deficits every quarter.

If it's just like this, it's nothing, the Cheng family has been inherited for a long time, and he doesn't owe him a loser, the problem is that His Excellency Cheng Bingxun, in the case of not being able to improve his business, began his personal style of "opening up sources and reducing expenditures" - turning the edge of the Cheng family, cutting off the money in the Cheng family, and not forgetting to continue to be kind and charitable, and the beautiful name is: pray for the Cheng family.

This style, speaking of which, has really brought a lot of good reputation to the Cheng family, but to say that his reputation in the clan can almost be described as smelly, if it weren't for the identity of the son-in-law, he would have been beaten to the extreme west.

If you want to use an animal to describe this Mr. Cheng Bingxun, the mating species of the iron rooster and the coyote, it may be barely able to match it.

Now, the sister-in-law of the Longzi branch is obviously interested in something from a certain guest. It was fairly easy for him to ask about the things in the warehouse.

Mrs. Cheng was uncertain, and several people from the Longzi branch were also a little ashamed, for the matter of a hundred and ten taels of silver, they were about to make trouble, and they really threw people to death. It's a pity that the elders are still in the field, but these people are not qualified to teach this sister-in-law Cheng Bingxun.

Cheng Bingxun is not stupid, he has his own ideas, and pretended to say: "This year, there is only one grandson of the Qingzi branch in Jinzhou, and the two branches of Yueyuan are two people who stay in Shaonan, and there is also one person in the Longzi branch, so please ask the eldest aunt to take the school homework." ”

The son-in-law of the Longzi branch he said is naturally his son, 14-year-old Cheng Jinhao.

The other two who were named hurriedly shook their heads in denial, even saying that they didn't have to.

The old lady of Qingzizhi looks kind, but she is the head of the family who holds the financial power of the Cheng family, except for Cheng Bingxun, who can no longer get a penny in the public school, who wants to offend the old lady for a gift.

Cheng Bingxun snorted lightly from his nose, and then said: "Then there are a few who participate, let's take the school exam." ”

Mrs. Cheng looked at Cheng Bingxun quietly and did not reply.

Cheng Jinzhou's sick seedling is famous, at the age of 12, his schoolwork is not outstanding among the children of the clan, and Cheng Jinhao is different, although his father Cheng Bingxun is not a good person, his writing is first-class, and he is idle every day, but he teaches a good son, and when people compliment, he will also call Cheng Bingxun a prodigy his father.

Whether it is a prodigy or a mediocre or mean, the old lady doesn't care about Cheng Jinzhou's backwardness in schoolwork, but at this time, she has to consider the face of Qingzizhi.

Cheng Jinzhou looked at the situation in front of him and knew that there was no way to avoid the school examination, and it was not suitable for others to come forward for a while, so he simply took a step forward and said loudly: "Grandma, my grandson is willing to test mathematics and science with my cousin." ”

He weighed heavily on the word competition.

The so-called mathematics and physics are the foundations of mathematics, including arithmetic and geometry, which Cheng Jinzhou studied the most during this time, and for the 14-year-old Cheng Jinhao, what he can come into contact with is the level of primary school mathematics in later generations - more in-depth knowledge will be counted as the content of the astrology, and Cheng Jinhao is obviously ready to fight for fame in the imperial examination.

A prodigy who mainly studied languages, and compared mathematics with a half-hung doctor of physics, Cheng Jinzhou could not find any possibility of losing - considering that someone was trying to take food from his mouth, Cheng Jinzhou felt that he could be more ruthless.

Only the Cheng family and close relatives were present, and a group of people were staring at Cheng Jinzhou with burning eyes, including the angry little Zhengtai.
