Mingmen Family

Chapter 237 The prefect is here
The ancestor of the Ye family was originally a villager in the Ye family village on the outskirts of Lin'an City, where the Ye family's ancestral hall was built.Most of the family members of the Ye family who came to drink today still live there.

Only a few moved out after getting rich, and one was the most promising. It was admitted to Jinshi and became an official. Jiacun guarded the fields and ancestral house to be a small landlord.

Everything else is business.

The most successful one is Ye Chongming's branch. Although he became a merchant, Ye Chongming directly became the leader of the tea line.It can be considered rich and status.

But Ye Chongming’s great-grandfather was not a direct descendant, and the old houses there were all built by Ye Chongming’s grandfather after he made a fortune. In Ye Chongming’s generation, he only went back to stay for one night when worshiping ancestors. Not too deep feelings.

But in recent years, they have been kind to the clan. They have bought ethnology and sacrifice fields for the clan.

By doing this, in addition to giving back to the village and gaining the support of their clansmen, they also leave a way out for themselves.

Although their branch is considered to be the most promising and contributes the most to the clan, they are not the direct branch.Mrs. Ye is not the wife of the clan, nor is Ye Hongchang the eldest son.Ye Chongming changed the position of the head of the family from the eldest son to the granddaughter, just like a family in the village letting a certain daughter-in-law be the head of the family. It has no effect on the Ye family clan, and even the genealogy will not be mentioned.

In addition, he knew that because his family was rich, after the family found out about this matter, someone would intervene, and even sow dissension between him and Ye Hongchang, causing more troubles, in order to gain the gratitude of Ye Hongchang and his son, and to make profits for himself.

Therefore, he didn't tell anyone in the Ye family about changing the head of the family.Bringing Ye Yaming to see everyone now is a simple notification.

He is in his sixties, and he does not know how long he will live.In the event of a sudden death, the Ye family's relatives will make a fuss on the grounds that Ye Yaming seized the position of uncle and patriarch when his grandfather passed away. A joke will push Ye Yaming out of the Ye family.

With Ye Yaming's ability, naturally he would not let these people decide.But Ye Chongming was worried that she didn't want to get into trouble, so he simply used this to get rid of these burdens of the Ye family, let the second wife of the Ye family go out independently, and returned the "head of the family" that the Ye family clan valued to Ye Hongchang.

Several incidents allowed Ye Chongming to figure out Ye Yaming's character.

She does value family affection, but it must be relatives with good character who make her willing to help.For example, Ye Yaqing, she is not stingy with gifts; Ye Hongrong, who made a mistake but values ​​love and righteousness, she is also willing to pull it out.

But if Tao Shi is so narrow-minded and only knows how to hate others, Ye Yaming won't even give her an extra look.If it weren't for him and Mrs. Ye, Ye Hongchang, Ye Jiaxing, and Ye Yaqing had good personalities, Ye Yaming would definitely let Dow go as far as he could.

So if you really want to be unfeeling, she can be unfeeling too.

Ye Yaming went to add makeup yesterday, and Ye Yaxiu's words and deeds reached him through Mrs. Ye, Ye Chongming called Ye Hongchang over and asked him what he thought.

If he really wants to be the head of the family, Ye Chongming can also satisfy him and directly divide the family among the three brothers.When the time comes, let Ye Hongchang go to the home of the Ye family's big house.He and Mrs. Ye will follow the second room.

As for the property, he will take out several 10 taels of silver from the tea seller, and then give [-]% to the big house.He, the second room and the fourth room each take [-]%.

In the future, the rise and fall, honor and disgrace, have nothing to do with each other.

Ye Hongchang was very frightened by his words, and immediately refused, saying that he was sincerely convinced by his niece, and said that he would definitely go back and beat Tao and his eldest daughter well.

It's also the same, Ye Chongming arranged for today's show.

Seeing the fifth uncle descending the donkey along the slope and being helped out by his grandson, Ye Chongming said to the patriarch Ye Chongxian: "Third brother, my three sons and I agree to make the second wife and third granddaughter the head of the family. It doesn't matter much, and there is no need to discuss with anyone, I will report to you now, so as to avoid troubles in the future."

Ye Chongxian's mouth twitched slightly.

It is said to be "reporting", but it is actually "notifying" him.And looking at Ye Hongchang's appearance, Ye Chongming had already confirmed that his third granddaughter had been the patriarch for some time, but he didn't send anyone to the clan to inform him of the patriarch.It's just a way to notify me now.

But he couldn't say a word of reproach either.After all, in those families in the clan, if the second child is capable, the second child will be in charge of the family; if the third daughter-in-law is capable, the third daughter-in-law will be in charge of the family.How can ordinary people be so particular about their lives?Although Ye Chongming's family is rich, they are really ordinary people in the family.Could it be that if someone has money, he, the patriarch, can interfere in other people's family affairs?Isn't this clearly coveting other people's money?

Ye Chongming is not soft-hearted, and he won't allow everyone to reach out to him.Offending him is not good for the clan.

He nodded and said with a smile, "Okay, I see."

As he spoke, he boasted: "Ming'er is so capable at such a young age, seventh brother, you are blessed."

Ye Chongming ranked seventh among his family peers.

Ye Chongming wanted this attitude.Seeing that Ye Chongxian was interested, he also praised the other party's child.

Uncle Wu was slapped in the face, and the attitude of the patriarch was like this. Ye Chongming also clearly said, "This is a family matter, and no outsiders need to intervene." Naturally, the Ye family clan did not dare to say anything more, and they all surrounded Ye Chongming and Ye Hongchang, following their words Praise Ye Yaming.

At this time, the servants came to report: "Old Master, the magistrate and the magistrate have come to congratulate you."

Both Ye Chongming and Ye Hongchang were a little surprised.

Ye Chongming quickly ordered: "Go and call the second master and the fourth master, and go to the door to meet the magistrate."

Most of the clan members live in the village, and Lizheng is the one with the most contacts.The magistrate is heaven to them, let alone the magistrate.

Now hearing that the prefect came to congratulate him in person, everyone couldn't believe their ears.

"Did I hear you right? Is the young man talking about the magistrate?"

"Yes, that's right. In addition to the magistrate, there is also the magistrate."

"Master Zhifu came to congratulate you? Is the Chongming branch doing so well?"

"Didn't you just hear what Hongchang said? Ming'er's niece is engaged to the fifth-rank official Xungui in Beijing. The magistrate must have come here for Ming'er's niece's sake."

Only Ye Chongming and Ye Yaming knew about Lu Guanyi's promotion to the fourth rank, so they didn't even mention Mrs.

So everyone thought that Ye Yaming's fiancé was still a fifth-rank official.

"That's not necessarily true, maybe it's for the tribute tea. If tribute tea can be produced in the territory under the prefect's jurisdiction, the magistrate's face will be honored. Now that Uncle Qi's family is having a happy event, the magistrate should come to congratulate him." Some people thought it was very understand authentic.

　My aunt's visit is uncomfortable, please take a chapter off.
