The Ye family worships ancestors is the most solemn family ceremony in the entire Ye family.

Large families attach great importance to ancestor worship, especially large families like the Ye family with a long history, with a profound historical heritage and many branches, and attach great importance to the ancestor worship ceremony.

In fact, many wealthy families want to hold special ancestry for ancestor worship, but the real ancestry for ancestor worship is by no means something ordinary families can do.

Some nouveau riche families cannot support this market even if they want to hold a ceremony for ancestor worship.

Because the ancestral tombs of these people may be buried in the last three or four generations of ancestors, and when they talk about their identities, they may be all farmers in the past few generations, and there is no high-end story that can be passed down to future generations.

Although the peasant class is also very respectable, in these upper class, the ancestors did not have a strong enough identity background, so they were indeed unable to show off.

Especially in the upper class in Yanjing.

In addition to comparing money and power, what we compare is family background and background.

There are many old and young people in Yanjing who were in the banner during the Qing Dynasty. The ancestors of these families were all nobles in the banner during the Qing Dynasty. Speaking of which, they were either princes or princesses, and even first-rank officials in the court that year.

Such a family has a strong foundation. When the ancestor worship ceremony is held, they can read out the deeds of two or three ancestors and immediately give people a feeling of being so arrogant.

The ancestors of the Ye family were also appointed officials in the court at that time. In ordinary families, they even wanted to build a ancestral temple for the scholar in their hometown. However, the ancestors of the Ye family had hundreds of Jinshi alone, ten of the top scholars, and thirty-one of the top scholars, including the Three A and the Top scholars.

The Qing Dynasty has a history of nearly three hundred years, and the imperial examinations were held in a total of 112 examinations.

In nearly three hundred years, there have been more than 20,000 Jinshi and 114 top scorers.

The Ye family alone accounted for nearly one-tenth of it, which was an extremely amazing achievement.

It is precisely because of the emergence of talents among our ancestors that the Ye family has lasted for hundreds of years and has always been quite powerful. Even in the era of chaos, they are at least a gentry.

The Ye family has been growing up for so many years, and there are at least tens of thousands of descendants of the Ye family spread all over the world, and a considerable number of them have gone overseas.

Their ancestors, who have been traced back hundreds of years, were the ancestors of the Ye family.

However, in ancient times, the eldest son inherited his legitimate sons, and other legitimate sons and concubines had to separate their families and establish their own businesses. Therefore, more and more Ye family members became sideline families, leaving only the direct lineage as the real sect leader family.

It’s like Ye Chen’s father had three brothers. If according to ancient rules, after Ye Chen’s grandfather died, the three sons of the Ye family would be separated. At that time, the eldest son Ye Changkong would inherit most of the family business and mansion.

The second son and the third son should have taken his family to leave the original Ye family mansion after three years of mourning for his father and start a family and start a business by himself.

As a result, the second son and the third son's family also became the sidelines of the Ye family.

At this time, these two side-line families were still relatively close to the sect leader’s family. After all, the second, the third and the eldest were brothers of the same-child compatriots.

But by Ye Chen's generation, the one who inherited the legacy of the sect leader's family was Ye Chen's cousin, so the relationship between the two side families and the sect leader's family was one generation away.

By the third and fourth generations, these two side-line families also spawned several more detailed side-line families, so they were even further apart from the sect leader's family.

If it lasts for five or six generations, the span may have been over a hundred years.
