Chapter 366 Taking Back the Ancestral Property
Before he could speak, I heard Ye Xiuwen say: "The grandson of the head of the Ye family is also his most proud grandson. It is said that he has a brilliant literary talent, and he will be the champion in the future. Qili, you still have the heart, if you meet Yin Boru, you may not even be left with scum, so you still want to be the number one scholar in the scientific examination?"

Yin Tao took a look at Ye Xiuhan, then turned to Ye Xiujin and Ye Xiuwen and said, "Sister-in-law asked you to go eat, at most two days later, the family will not be peaceful."

They left the capital quietly without getting off the boat along the way. The officials along the way did not know that the hot new Marquis returned to his hometown of Guangling County!
But after staying here, news will surely spread soon, and there must be many officials who come to visit.

There are many marquises in the capital, but this one is more important than the prince!
The brothers of the Ye family and the second wife of Ye got up and left. Ye Xiuhan was left in the room doubting his life. The soft-hearted woman he placed his hopes in didn't even give him a look.

As soon as the family sat down to eat, they heard a report from the servants, saying that the head of the Ye family had brought someone here in person, and said arrogantly, let Ye Xiuhan out quickly, and we don't need to treat his wounds!

Ye Xiuwen said: "Understood, close the door tightly and ignore him!"

The servants took orders and left, Yin Tao suddenly said: "Why don't you buy two wolf dogs and come back to guard the gate, I think some people are more afraid of dogs."

Ye Xiuwen laughed loudly: "It's up to you, let someone do it in a while!"

The two children were very happy: "Shall we raise wolfdogs?"

Ye Xiujin brought food for his son, and said with a smile, "It's fine if it's a puppy, but it's not okay if it's a big dog, it will bite you."

Yang Qinyun hurriedly said: "Then choose two little milk dogs for the children to play with!"

The two children who were a bit depressed immediately cast grateful glances at their mother. Yang Qinyun was overjoyed, and hurriedly picked up food for the children, and was thanked by the children. She was happy in her heart. There was a crystal dumpling on the plate in front of her, and she looked up. Seeing Ye Xiujin's smiling eyes, Yang Qinyun smiled back.

Seeing that the elder brother's family was happy and happy, Yin Tao finally felt relieved, she didn't know how afraid she would bring back another troublemaker, that would be endless, if there was another one, the Ye family's reputation would really be ruined.

After everyone finished their meal, someone from outside came to report that an official messenger had come and wanted to see the uncle and the second master.

Yejia Town is very close to the county seat, and it takes two quarters of an hour to run back and forth on horseback.

"Yo, this is the official report? Let's go, the official is here, I still have to go and have a look." Ye Xiuwen laughed.

The two children wanted to join in the fun, but were led away by Yang Qinyun.

Yin Tao followed Ye Xiuwen, and Ye Xiujin went in and out.

When they walked to the gate of the courtyard, they saw a crowd of people crowded at the gate, Ye Xiuwen shouted: "Open the gate, my master will meet these officials."

The door was opened, Ye Xiujin and Ye Xiuwen went out side by side and went straight down the steps, Yin Tao also walked out, but stood at the door to watch the excitement.

The servants carried two chairs and placed them in the yard in front of the door. Ye Xiuwen and Ye Xiujin sat down, looked at the four officials in front of them and asked, "Are you going to arrest me? I'll just sit here, come and arrest me!"

The understatement angered the officials, but an old man stopped him. He glanced at Ye Xiuwen and Ye Xiujin. From their clothes, it seemed that they were not easy to mess with. It was better to be more cautious.

"Who are you? Since you have come to my Guangling County, you should go to the county government to deliver the customs clearance document and report."

Ye Xiuwen didn't speak, and Dong Guanshi stepped forward: "Our second master is the adopted son of the current emperor, the newly appointed Marquis of Cheng En, Commander of the Qilin Guard, but still need to go to the county government to deliver the customs clearance certificate?"

There was silence on the court, everyone was stunned by this series of identities.

The guard thought for a long time but couldn't think of anything to say back and forth, and finally he could only kneel down and kowtow: "Cao Degui, the head of the small man's county government shop, pay homage to Lord Hou!"

The yamen servant behind him also knelt down and called him Lord Hou.

Ye Xiuwen didn't make things difficult for everyone, and immediately got them up.

The officer said again: "Master Hou has returned home. My adults don't know about it yet, so I ask Lord Hou to forgive me. The villain will go back and report to the adults."

Seeing Ye Xiuwen wave his hand, meaning that they agreed to leave, the group of guards quickly fled the scene.

Riding on the horse and galloping all the way, this is the Hou Ye who is about to show his prestige. Although the current county magistrate hadn't come when that incident happened, who knows if Hou Ye will be involved?
Ye Xiuwen looked at the old patriarch who was supported up, and said with a half-smile: "Patriarch, do you know why I chose this place to build my Ye family mansion?"

The head of the Ye family is not old-fashioned, so he naturally remembers that this is where their brother Fu Ling came back, but was blocked by their Ye family town, where they temporarily settled, and later entered the mountain along the mountain road next to it.

I just heard that they all died when they met the robbers, why did they come back so gloriously all of a sudden?
Seeing that he gritted his teeth and remained silent, Ye Xiuwen sneered: "Back then, my elder brother and I were only sixteen. Our brothers' families were ruined and we came back with the elder's coffin from thousands of miles away. Let us enter the town, not let my grandfather and parents be buried in the ancestral graves, and expropriate our family."

The old patriarch straightened his back, and said righteously: "Before you came back, we received threats from the nobles in Beijing. If you don't follow through, everyone in Yejia Town will suffer. Could it be that you A family, want to put the whole family's life at risk?"

Ye Xiuwen sneered again: "My family did not commit the crime of punishing the three clans. Even our brothers can come back well. What are you afraid of?"

The old patriarch said again: "Can I gamble with the lives of the whole clan? Your grandfather and father didn't commit a crime, so they died too?"

Ye Xiuwen stood up suddenly, leaned forward, and stared condescendingly at the old patriarch's cloudy eyes: "Don't you just feel dissatisfied with my grandfather's family motto that members of the Ye family are not allowed to take scientific examinations to be officials? You just want to divide the family with my family? But you are coveting the convenience that my family brings back to the silver and my grandfather's reputation, so you can't bear it?"

The old patriarch's eyes flickered, but he still looked at Ye Xiuwen without fear: "Your grandfather wanted fame, but he asked everyone in the Ye family to follow him and not allow scientific examinations. You have to know how many descendants of my Ye family are very talented in reading. ? Isn’t this ruining my Ye family’s future?”

Ye Xiuwen took a step back suddenly: "Bah!"

"When my great-grandfather passed the exam, the place was full of wasteland. It was my great-grandfather who took my great-grandmother's dowry money to open up wasteland and build roads. This is how Yejia Town is today."

"When my great-grandfather passed away, he made my grandfather swear not to take the imperial examination!"

"But why did my grandfather say that you would not be allowed to conduct scientific research? You sanctimonious hypocrites, while enjoying the benefits my grandfather gave to the family for years, are dissatisfied with my grandfather? Think about it yourself, go to great-grandfather, grandfather, and father for three generations. How much silver did you bring back?"

Ye Xiuwen pointed to a piece of fertile land in front of him: "This piece of fertile land is all ancestral property bought with money from my family, and now I take it all back!"
