Chapter 67: Fooling People
When he heard that Ye Fei promised to help him go back tomorrow to complete the things he couldn't let go of, the old man was obviously a lot happier, and after dinner, the old man began to tell some of his things. The old man's name is Xu Huilai, now 86 years old, when he was young, he also fought in the War of Resistance against Japan, he is considered to be an older generation of revolutionaries, he was discharged from the army and returned home a few years after the founding of New China, relying on the few points of land in his hometown, but also begged for a daughter-in-law, lived a stable life, and gave birth to two sons in the following three and five years.
After more than twenty or thirty years, it was also stable, with some strength and craftsmanship, and also made a lot of money, in the nineties, relying on savings to build a house, two sons also asked for a daughter-in-law, grandchildren and granddaughters, it can also be regarded as a full house of children and grandchildren, so far, Xu Guilai is still satisfied with the first half of his life.
But it's a pity that there will always be unsatisfactory things in life, and when Xu returns to old age, the two sons are also in their thirties and forties, and the eldest grandson is in junior high school, but the daughters-in-law of the two families began to have conflicts, and even the two sons who were originally close became estranged.
Time passed, two thousand years later, the family of the two sons was even more troublesome, although they lived in a building, there were more opportunities to meet every day, but the two adults, even if they met, it was rare to scream, and the smiling face was not one. And as Xu Hui got older, the two families began to quarrel over the issue of the house, after all, there was only one house, and both families wanted it, and each wanted to squeeze the other out and monopolize it alone. The two families never wanted to think about it, the old man was still alive, so they thought about how to divide his house after he died, so what would the old man think, anyway, Xu Huilai knew that he was in pain when he heard it, and he couldn't help but think of his wife who died more than ten years early.
However, after all, it is his two sons, and there is no way for Xu to return, anyway, the house will be left to them sooner or later. Xu Hui can only think like this to comfort himself.
After listening to the old man Xu Huilai tell the details of the matter, Ye Fei smiled bitterly: "This, how do you want me to solve this problem, as the saying goes, it is difficult for a clean official to break the house, and it is difficult for a clean official to break it, what can I solve as a little child, and besides, you have a total of one house, and both families want to occupy it all, you can't drive out a son and leave the house to the family!"
Ye Fei thought, both of them are your sons, and the palms and backs of their hands are full of meat, this is very difficult. But what do you think, Xu Huilai nodded affirmatively: "That's right, it's to drive out a son." Ye Fei was stunned and stunned.
But then Xu Hui explained again: "Actually, I still have a piece of land outside, and I still have 200,000 savings at home, which is enough to build another house, I can divide that piece of land and more than 200,000 deposits together with one son, and then leave the old house to another son, so there is no problem." ”
"It's so simple, then why don't you solve it?" Ye Fei was stunned for a moment and then asked. Xu Huilai smiled bitterly and explained, it turned out that the land he said was not originally his, Xu Guangliang actually had an elder brother, who participated in the War of Resistance against Japan with him when he was young, but his brother was not lucky with him and died on the battlefield.
After Xu returned, he took over his brother's old house, and waited for his sister-in-law to return with his nephew, and this was forty years, and his sister-in-law and nephew did not come back, and he didn't know whether he died outside or settled down again. Two thousand years later, the government's urban reform plan included the old house of Xu Huilai's brother, and at that time, Xu Huilai received a piece of land from the government and a housing subsidy of 200,000 yuan.
However, Xu Huilai, who was waiting for the eldest brother's son to come back, thought in his heart that this land should belong to the eldest brother's son, so he kept it hidden, and even the two sons were not told, until he was hospitalized He also heard the two daughters-in-law arguing over the house, but Xu Huilai suddenly opened his mind, the eldest brother's son has not come back for so many years, maybe he really can't come back or don't come back, rather than this, it is better to give the land and 200,000 yuan to one of the sons, and the old house is considered to be five and a half points, so that the two sons should be satisfied, and the house will be separated in the future, and the two families will not see each other, so there should not be so many contradictions。
Hearing this, Ye Fei finally breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, if this is the case, it shouldn't be too difficult, just give the two of them a share of the family property, however, you still have to think of a way, people won't cherish things that are too easy to get, they will only want to get more, so they have to plan well. After deciding, Ye Fei looked at Xu Huilai and nodded: "I should take this matter, we will have a good rest tonight, and we will go to Lanshui County tomorrow." ”
…… Early the next morning, Ye Fei and the old man rushed to the long-distance station early, took the car towards Lanshui County, turned two trains halfway, and finally arrived at the destination before twelve o'clock. According to Xu Huilai's instructions, Ye Fei took the No. 8 bus to Xu Huilai's house on the outskirts of the county.
Xu Huilai's home should be relatively well built around here, with three facades, six floors, white tiles on the outside, stainless steel carbonized glass partition windows, such a house, not to mention the two families live, even if the children of the two families all grow up, after marriage, one room per person is enough.
But even so, Xu Hui's two-room son and daughter-in-law actually wanted to monopolize it, Ye Fei shook his head, and he really couldn't understand what some people thought. In the middle of the three facades is a hall house, which is a popular habit in early Chinese house architecture. There was no one in the hall, so Ye Fei walked straight in.
Ye Fei's footsteps seemed to alarm the people upstairs, a middle-aged man in his thirties walked down the stairs behind the hall, looking at Ye Fei with a puzzled expression, because of the burning paper and incense candles and sandalwood in Ye Fei's hand, he didn't say anything disrespectful, and half a minute later, another man walked down, looking a little older.
Xu Huilai, who had been following Ye Fei, was introduced, the one who came down first was his youngest son Xu Mingzhi, and the one who came down later was his eldest son Xu Mada. Ye Fei nodded silently, then put the burning paper on the ground, lit a pair of incense candles with a lighter and inserted them in front of the tablet, and then lit the three sandalwood sticks, bowed three times in front of the tablet respectfully, kowtowed three times, and then inserted the sandalwood into the incense burner, stood up and stretched out his hand to pull up Xu Mada, who later saw Ye Fei bowing to the incense and the horse running over and kneeling next to the tablet.
"Ahem, this little, little brother ....... After standing up, Xu Mada seemed to want to say something, but Ye Fei interrupted: "Little brother, little brother is also what you can call." Ye Fei found a chair in the hall, sat down with a wide open face, and then said with a cold face: "The old man is eighty and eight this year, and I will call Big Brother when I come back, this little brother is what you can call." Xu Mada was obviously frightened by Ye Fei, but Xu Mingzhi on the side sneered: "A little kid, you dare to come to us to swagger and deceive, if it weren't for your sake of kowtowing to your father, now Lao Tzu will beat you up, and you will find your parents to come to theorize!"
"Xu Mingming knows it. Ye Fei still said with a cold face: "The old man has been cultivating the way of immortality since he was a child, how can you understand, don't say much, the old man also has nothing to do but go to the Three Treasures Palace, but today there are also things to reason with you, Xu Mada, go and call your daughter-in-law and that kid's daughter-in-law all down, some things have to be explained clearly today." ”
Xu Mada seemed to be really frightened by Ye Fei, and after being stunned for a while, he really walked towards the back stairs, and was about to call his daughter-in-law and brother-in-law. Xu Mingzhi on the side was obviously annoyed: "You little kid is endless, you know what the names of our two brothers are, I don't know which one is around here, I want to deceive you with this." ”
"Hey, Xu Mingzhi knows that before Xu returned to life, you were the most unfilial to him, even your old man was going to die, and he couldn't speak, you had to ask if he had any money hidden, and I would tell you in a while. Ye Fei sneered, this is what Xu Huilai told him yesterday, when he was terminally ill, when the youngest son was no one by his side, he kept asking him if he had any money left around, although he despised what his younger son did, but Xu Guilai really wanted to tell him the hidden title deed and the 200,000 deposits, but unfortunately, Xu Guilai really wanted to say it at that time.
Listening to Ye Fei's words, Xu Mingzhi's face turned pale, but Lima said sharply: "What is the little kid talking nonsense, be careful I call the police and sue you for a false accusation." ”
"I'll make it clear in a moment. Ye Fei sneered, but he didn't say anything anymore, and after Xu Mada brought his daughter-in-law and brother-in-law down, Ye Fei slowly stood up.
"Everyone is here, okay, there are some things to explain to you clearly today!" Ye Fei carried the chair he was sitting on just now and walked straight to the bottom of the hall god shelf, and sat down again. "I came this time because Xu Xu came back a few days ago and ran to me to beg me to come....... Ye Fei hadn't finished speaking.
Xu Mingzhi Lima jumped out: "You said that you are swaggering and deceiving, it has been half a month since my father died, why did I go to you a few days ago to beg you, and I have to make up a circle of deception." ”
"The old man dreamed, not far away, these things are mysterious, but I will always let you believe it. Ye Fei sneered: "It's not that you descendants are unfilial, Xu Guilai quarreled endlessly about this house when he was alive, and your old man quarreled again a few days after he died, let me ask you, four days after Xu Huilai died, six days, did you quarrel about the house again." Ye Fei glared and said coldly.
"And ....... Ye Fei listened to some of his things that Xu Hui told beside him, and said them word for word. Ten minutes later, the four people standing in front of him all looked at each other, because although some things Ye Fei said were known to outsiders, there were some things that outsiders knew, even if the other two brothers didn't know. The four of them were all scared, they didn't listen, this person was found by the old father after he died, then, that doesn't mean that the old father has been watching them after he died. Although it was his father, the four of them couldn't help but tremble when they thought of the word "ghost" that was very terrifying when they heard it throughout the ages.
"Hmph, it seems that you have believed a little, so that's good, now I will tell you what your father means. Ye Fei still said with a cold face, but at this time, even Xu Mingming, who was jumping and smashing, didn't dare to jump out and say anything anymore.
"Originally, Xu Huilai wanted to do a good job before he was alive, but it's a pity that you are unfilial sons, when Xu Hui was still able to say at that time, none of you took care of your side, and when he was about to die, he took care of him for a few days, but Xu Guilai couldn't say it if he wanted to, and I didn't travel thousands of miles to solve these messy things for you. Ye Feixian was deliberately dissatisfied, and then continued: "You are fighting for this house, not just for this house. ”
Ye Fei snorted coldly: "Xu Hui made it clear to me, in this house, he will only keep one son, and the other son will get out of here ......." ”
"What, what?" Hearing Ye Fei's words, Xu Mada was obviously stunned. "Don't interject, I'm not done yet. Ye Fei glared at Xu Ma coldly, and then continued: "What I said is right, the house is left to one family, and the other family is gone." However, your old father is not a ruthless person, and I will give you a piece of land with the same three facades, as well as 200,000 in cash. ”
"What, 200,000?" all four of them couldn't help but shout, even after two thousand years, 200,000 yuan is a lot of money for an ordinary family, enough to build a new house no less than the current one.
