The night rain crackled, Yejiazhuang was full of joy, the lights were colorful, and from time to time there were children looking forward to the eaves, and they were pulled back by the woman, but there was no trace of the adult man.

Zhuangzi is quiet, the outer wall of bluestone cement is heavy and solemn, the whole Zhuangzi is no longer a landlord's dock fort, more like a new small city, and the city wall is lit with lights, patrolling as usual in the rain, and from time to time someone is alert to look outside the city.

The ox cart drove over, gradually approaching, Ye Zifan sat in the car, looking at the late night in the distance, his hand stroked his forehead just in contemplation, I don't know how long later, the car stopped, and the coachman said cautiously: "Third master...... Now that I've arrived at the gate of the village, the young man has gotten off."

"Hmm" Ye Zifan responded, and when he went out, he saw that the lights were bright, the two rows were all clan soldiers, and a large number of clansmen and family children were arranged, all silent.

I saw Ye Qing go down, and thousands of people knelt down: "Say hello to Bangyan Gong"

"Get up, it's all your own people, you don't have to be polite," Ye Qing waved his hand and said.

"The patriarch is waiting for you inside, you can go in quickly, and we will take care of the rest of the matter. A deacon smiled as he led the way.

Ye Qing went forward, and when he saw the peach trees in the area, he smiled: "I have been gone for half a year, and when I come back, I don't want even the peach blossoms to fall."

As he spoke, he smiled and instructed Jiang Zinan, asked her to carry a box with her, and then moved upstairs.

Arrived at the upper stairs of the upper floor, stepped in, and saw a cigarette lit inside, Ye Mengqiu was pondering, and when he saw Ye Qing coming in, he stood up.

Ye Qing stepped forward and saluted: "Grandfather, I'm back"

Ye Mengqiu held back his emotions: "You're finally back, it's good to come back, it's good to come back"

Ye Qing waved his hand, Jiang Zinan presented the wooden box, and retreated obediently.

Ye Mengqiu's hands trembled a little, and when he opened this, he could see the golden scroll, one was the holy decree, canonizing Ye Qing as the editor of the Eight Grades of Hanlin and Nan Lianzi, and the other was the Jinshi Gongwen, which confirmed that Ye Qing was the leader, and the other was the temporary dispatch of the state, and the official document of the regimental training appointment in the county.

Each of these four official documents exuded a charming brilliance in Ye Mengqiu's eyes.

Below, there is the pressed crown suit.

After a long time, Ye Mengqiu said: "These four scrolls can shelter my Ye clan for a hundred years."

After a pause, he said: "You are a Jinshi and the first, the glory of the ancestors, the rules have to change, tomorrow morning, you will sacrifice the Jinshi archway and the ancestral hall, do you have any opinion?"

Ye Qing smiled: "There is no opinion on this, according to the rules, it is to sacrifice the Jinshi archway first, and then sacrifice the family ancestral hall." ”

Ye Mengqiu nodded: "Tomorrow sacrifice, sacrifice to the Jinshi archway in the morning, and then sacrifice to the family ancestral hall in the morning, and at noon, I will go to the original ancestral hall, and I will pass the throne to you."

This was said simply, Ye Qing couldn't help but lean back, shocked: "How dare my grandson, my grandfather is still very healthy, and besides, there are three uncles and their elders who are ......."

Before the words fell, I saw Ye Mengqiu waving his hand and stopped: "You don't have to say this, now that there is no one in the building, there is no way to do anything if there is a false courtesy." ”

"Don't say it's you, it's anyone, who can get into the jinshi, it's all this treatment. Ye Mengqiu smiled when he said this, and said: "To put it mildly, even if I don't let go of power, you are a jinshi, who in the clan dares not to listen to you?

Ye Qing was stunned when he heard this, stared at Ye Mengqiu for a long time, suddenly straightened his face, and bowed deeply: "Yes, then the grandson will be ashamed."

"This is my good grandson" Ye Mengqiu leaned back in his chair and muttered: "But if you want to take over, there is always a charter, what do you say?"

"I have no objection. Ye Qing smiled when he heard this, his heart was bright, and he knew that this was the condition, in fact, the essence was like this, Ye Qing was a jinshi, who in the clan dared not listen?

Even if Ye Mengqiu didn't retreat, it wouldn't have much impact.

Even if you take 10,000 steps back, Ye Qing won the Jinshi this time, and he has 10,000 acres of land under his name, and there are more than 300 people who have taken refuge recently, as long as it takes five years, it will not be difficult for him to create a new Ye clan that surpasses Yejiazhuang.

However, Ye Mengqiu's automatic succession saved a lot of trouble, and his reputation was good, so he muttered at the moment: "I originally bought 10,000 acres of bad land, and I heard that the land has improved recently, although it will not immediately become fertile land, it will only be a few years." ”

"I set aside 3,000 acres into the clan, and how to divide it has to be presided over by my grandfather and third uncle. ”

As soon as these words fell, Ye Mengqiu held his palm and smiled: "Dashan, if you have this heart, I will be worry-free." ”

After a pause, he said: "Tomorrow, I will hand over the account book of the clan to you, and I will give you some insight first, the actual amount of silver in the clan is 170,000 taels."

His eyes swept over Ye Qing's face, and he said: "From last year to this year, Zhuye Qingjiu, my family earned 270,000 taels of silver, but the clan distributed dividends and built roads and canals, and spent most of it at once, only 60,000 taels of silver remained, and these 110,000 taels were accumulated before." ”

Ye Qing didn't care when he heard this, and smiled: "Zhuye Qingjiu can still earn two years, at least 500,000 taels of silver income, even if this big item is removed in the future and dedicated to the imperial court, the imperial court will also have a reward, and it will be able to keep some shares, and it is certain that there will be a dividend of 50,000 taels of silver a year." ”

"Besides, at that time, the fields and houses were all developed, and about 200 hectares of farmland, I was afraid that there would be no income?"

Ye Mengqiu didn't speak, and asked silently for a long time: "This bamboo leaf green wine, is it really only three years?"

Ye Qing glanced at his grandfather in surprise: "The stakes here, didn't I analyze it for you and the elders of the clan a long time ago?" It can only be held in your hands for three years, and any more will cause a big disaster, and you all agreed to these at that time."

"But you are now a ...... of the two ranks," Ye Mengqiu was a little hesitant.

"The two lists of jinshi can't be topped" Ye Qing heard that his grandfather and the clan were making an idea, and then he suddenly didn't smile anymore, and immediately said stiffly: "When you see making money, you don't even want your life?"

"Grandfather, if you have this in mind, don't pass on the throne to me, I will immediately set up my own door. ”

These words were extremely harsh, and Ye Mengqiu suddenly couldn't stand it, and he was angry: "That's how you talk to your grandfather?

The original harmonious atmosphere was swept away, Ye Qing didn't even say a word, waved his sleeves, turned around and left, Ye Mengqiu's whole body trembled, pointing at his back and shouting: "Okay...... Isn't it ...... if you're full-fledged?"

Ye Qingli ignored it and walked towards the steps.

was reborn by himself, almost all of his luck and resources were earned by himself, and he made Zhuye Qingjiu by himself, and most of the profits were handed over to the clan

The purchase of 10,000 acres of barren land is also to sell the shares to redeem by himself, and at this time, when the Jinshi came back, he immediately gave 3,000 acres to the clan.

Realizing that he has fulfilled all his blood obligations.

But the clan was consumed by the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver this year, and they all said it clearly, and they all knew that the catastrophe was unfathomable, and they still wanted to call themselves on top?

What is the essence of this?

It's the idea of sacrificing yourself to make money, which can be called madness

For real relatives, maybe even so, it is difficult to cut it all, but what kind of person is Ye Qing, he is a traverser, and he is not even in the mood to play with them at this time.

Look up to the sky and go out with a smile, how can my generation be a Penghao person

Seeing that this grandson ignored him, and his footsteps had reached the first step of the steps, Ye Mengqiu suddenly had a realization that made him angry and sad - if he stepped out of the clan, there would really be no such person in the clan.

"Slow, come back," Ye Mengqiu said.

Seeing that Ye Qing stopped and turned around, Ye Mengqiu couldn't help but gasp violently, coughing, and stopped for a long time, looking at Ye Qing with a sad look: "Even if there is something sorry for you in the clan, you can refute and discuss, and wave away without saying a word, you hate the clan like this?

Seeing that Ye Qing didn't speak, after a long time, Ye Mengqiu finally showed a disappointed look, took a heavy breath, and suddenly became ten years old: "That's it, tomorrow you will be the patriarch, you can do whatever you want."

Ye Qing bowed again, his expression calm: "Yes, grandfather, it's not early, please rest early, and I'll go back to deal with some things." ”

"Alright, there you go. Ye Mengqiu saw Ye Qing with a smile and a friendly expression, said in a daze, got up and paced a few steps slowly, arrived at the entrance of the building, and looked down, only to see the rainy night, but the clansmen below were not affected in the slightest, cheering and jumping, with a festive atmosphere.

Looking further away, a lush field, thousands of acres of fertile land are faintly visible, and I saw Ye Qing who went out, greeting people in the courtyard, calmly and gracefully, smiling, I couldn't help but sigh, and my voice became a little hoarse: "Alas, my heart has the danger of mountains and rivers, and my chest has the depth of the city, I don't want this son to think so deeply, it's really terrifying and terrifying."

Ye Qing actually didn't have this thought, and the scale in his heart was very simple.

Together, treat it with sincerity

disagrees, looks up to the sky and laughs and goes out

It's just that this is a measure that only the superior has in his place, and there is a big article here that cannot be said, at this time, seeing everyone greeting happily, how could he have a cold face, and suddenly they all got into this atmosphere.

"Young Master Qing, I heard that the imperial capital is inhabited by heavenly people, it must be much better than here."

Ye Qing shook his head slightly, and smiled: "In terms of many people and houses, it must be the imperial capital, but the golden nest and silver nest are not as good as the dog kennel, and there is no one who is better than the family - just say that your sister-in-law Li made the grilled chicken, and no one in the imperial capital has made this taste." ”

Sister-in-law Li's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said: "It's rare that Young Master Qing still remembers the grilled chicken I made - I will make grilled chicken tonight, and I will choose a big rooster, fat and tender, I will send you a few tomorrow morning."

Ye Qing couldn't help but applaud and laugh, and said, "With Sister-in-law Li's words, my saliva will come down, just send three, Qianqian and I like it." ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand and walked towards his mansion, but the figure of Qianqian appeared in his heart, and his eyes suddenly sank, with a little tenderness.
