Strict mother of his girl, whom he dates, doesn’t want him to married her daughter, because he is, in hers opinion, is adoptee & so he does not have any rights.

And so it appears that these two – not just friends, but also brothers. Ernest, as it turns out, has the blood of secular society and the mother of his girl grants consent to their marriage.
