Just looking at the head of the small case, the old man looked at Ye Chenliang who was standing beside him with some regrets. Unexpectedly, this time, the eldest grandson was defeated by the sand and his reputation, but Ye Chunqiu made a big splash.

He couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In addition to the old lady, Ye Chunqiu's two uncles also came. The second uncle sat with him, and there was no expression on his face; the third uncle still looked as if he was not as handsome as he looked very impatient.

The father sat on the other side. The father and son had not met for a long time. Now, when they saw their son coming back, they were very happy and just hindered the old lady, so they just looked at Ye Chunqiu with gentle eyes, without much expression.

The only difference is that on the other side of the old lady, there was a stranger sitting. He was about forty years old and had a Confucian uniform. He looked like he was famous. He seemed to be very respectful to him, so he said, "Mr. Deng, this is the Spring and Autumn Period. Come and see Mr. Deng. Mr. Deng is from Hangzhou. This time he was invited by your second uncle to be a guest and stay here for a few days. He is a juren and is waiting for the Ministry of Personnel to select officials. You should ask him more questions."

Ye Chunqiu suddenly realized that he was a scholar. No wonder he had a transcendent status and the old lady wanted to be polite to him. This Juren was almost equivalent to half an official. Although in the Zhengde Dynasty, because there were more and more scholars, there were fewer vacancies. It was becoming increasingly difficult to choose to be a county magistrate by his identity as a Juren. However, it was very rare for Juren to be fame like Fenghua County.

Look at this, this Juren Deng is still a friend of his second uncle.

Ye Chunqiu saluted to Juren Deng: "See the deceased uncle."

Juren Deng smiled and said, "Oh, the head of the government test, it's good. I guess I've taken the exam as well. There hasn't been a case yet. However, with the intelligence of my nephew, I must be able to go to high school. At a young age, it's not easy."

The old lady smiled and said, "Mr. Deng, don't be too proud of him, young people will not listen to the praises."

Juren Deng smiled and said nothing, but looked at Ye Chunqiu with a smile on his face, which was strange.

Although the old lady said this, she still praised Ye Chunqiu, asked about the examination again, and said, "If you become a scholar, it will be considered as a shining light. In a few days, it will be the day of your Emperor Gaozu's worship. You should prepare and follow the male members of your family to worship the ancestors in the ancestral hall to report to the ancestors."

After the old lady finished speaking, the second uncle Ye Song's face looked a little ugly, but the displeasure was fleeting. He smiled and said, "Dad, this is probably inappropriate. Didn't the Ye family always have rules? Can't illegitimate men worship their ancestors on the day of worship? You have to go there again after the day of worship, and avoid it."

The concubine's son...

Finally, we talked about the issue of Ye Chunqiu's identity.

Obviously, the question of whether Ye Chunqiu was a legitimate son or a illegitimate son was ignored by this family before, but now the second uncle suddenly mentioned it, of course he had a deep intention.

Ye Chunqiu is the eldest son. If he is a legitimate son, then for the old lady, he is the eldest son and the eldest son, and he has irrefutable inheritance rights. This means that if the old lady leaves in the future, the Ye family will be Ye Jing's head of the family, and sooner or later it will be passed on to Ye Chunqiu.

But it would be different if it was a concubine's son. In this way, the second uncle's son Ye Chenliang is the eldest grandson and also comes from a direct line. Although he was born in the second house, his status is much higher than that of Ye Chunqiu, the concubine's son.

The reason why Ye Song raised this question now was due to the situation. Although he was the second son, his elder brother ran away from home in his early years and thought he had become an irrefutable heir, but who would have thought that the elder brother ran back again. It was okay that Ye Jing and his son had no future, but Ye Chunqiu went on to go to the county examination, the government examination, and even the hospital examination was hoped. At that time, another scholar would appear in the big room. Even if the old lady was addicted to Ye Chenliang, she would probably put her hope in the big room in the end.

It is urgent to quickly confirm Ye Chunqiu's identity.

There is indeed such a rule in the Ye family. This is to clarify the status of legitimate and illegitimate vassals, so worshiping ancestors has always been used separately for sacrifice.

When Ye Chunqiu heard this, he was furious. What a illegitimate son, when his mother became a maid and concubine, it was almost like a swearing person.

Ye Jing, who has always been kind, also shook his face at this time: "Second brother, when did Chunqiu become a concubine's son?"

Ye Song had already said something and said without hesitation: "How isn't it? His mother was not a formal marriage for the sake of the bride. Is it still a legitimate birth?"

Ye Jing said seriously: "The embroidered lady and I have already been in a marriage, and it has become a marriage."

Ye Song looked at the old lady with a smile and said, "Whether the bride is married properly, of course, I have to ask my father about his feelings."

All the problems were pushed to the old lady.

The old lady frowned. In his heart, he naturally disagreed with Ye Jing's claim to the elopement woman as his legitimate wife, but this grandson Ye Chunqiu is indeed very promising, and he couldn't help feeling embarrassed.

While the old lady was dying, Ye Song and Deng Juren were moving slightly. The two exchanged glances. Deng Juren smiled and said, "Cough... Grandpa, I didn't expect that the family affairs of your Ye family were involved today. Well, the students said goodbye, and they always have to avoid suspicion."

The more he said this, the old lady naturally refused to send him away. The old lady valued the most. Although she was discussing family affairs, the distinguished guest could not lose her manners. The old lady hurriedly said, "No, Mr. Deng, I'm making fun of you. Mr. Deng has a broad relationship. I'm shameless and want to ask, what does Mr. Deng think about this matter?"

Juren Deng couldn't help but stroke his beard and smiled. He seemed to have expected that the old lady's guild would ask him on his head, and said, "Since the Taigong asked, the student had to say something bluntly. If there was something reckless, I hope that Taigong Ye would not blame him."

"This Juren Deng is clearly the reinforcement invited by his second uncle. This is going to be finished." Ye Chunqiu felt that it was not very good.

But Deng Juren said lightly: "Chunqiu is indeed very successful. If he passes the college entrance examination this time and becomes a scholar, he will be a person with fame. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is glorious. However, the state has national laws, family rules, and the world's affairs always cannot escape the word "rituals and law". Ye Jing's brother elopes with his woman, thus giving birth to Chunqiu. Logically speaking, they did get married outside. In the eyes of Ye Jing's brother, it is okay to regard him as his wife. But he has only heard that he has been employed as a wife and a concubine. Chunqiu's mother did not marry three rituals and six rituals, so she is only considered a concubine's etiquette. This etiquette and law matter cannot be changed easily, otherwise..."

Deng Juren glanced at the eyes and saw that the old lady's face had changed, he couldn't help but want to laugh.
