This day is the eighth day of the lunar month, and every household boils Laba porridge, which is an excellent day; King Yan also gave the porridge in the palace, and the people who got it were very dignified. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info After drinking porridge in the evening, the second master of the Zhenguo Mansion suddenly stroked his beard and said: "As the saying goes, the tree is a big fork, and the son is a big family." The three of us are all grandchildren, and we are still in the house. Big brother, it's time to split up. ”

Master Niu was stunned. Before he could speak, the third master Niu said: "What the second brother said is that it will be divided in the next year." ”

Master Niu hurriedly said, "What did you two say?" ”

The two said at the same time: "Separate!" ”

"Why did you suddenly mention splitting up?"

Master Niu San said: "Big brother, it's long overdue." Where are we embarrassed to stay in the house all the time? ”

The second master Niu said: "I gave birth to eight sons, and I have been raised in the house, so I really don't want to go." ”

Master Niu is getting more and more curious. The second child has no daughter in the family, and it costs a lot of money to raise a son to study and marry a wife, why would he want to split up? His sons were all incompetent; Even the dead one could not be found, and half of it could support the façade. How can they live without the town and the country? In the most difficult years in the house, there was a Qing guest who asked Master Niu to go out of the second room, and he read his father's dying instructions and refused. Why is it that the house is getting better and better now, and the two of them want to split up? After a while, he smiled bitterly: "What is the reason after all?" Is there a place for you to live, brother? ”

Both of them stood up and said, "No, no! My eldest brother treats me very well. It's time to split up. ”

The second master Niu said: "The house has a large population, and the grandchildren are gradually growing up, and they can't live anymore." The two younger ones of my family still want to marry. Carefully calculating the houses in the house, rambling about the yard, it is not even easy to find a house. Big brother, I really can't live anymore. ”

Master Niu thought about it for a while, and what he said was right. There are too many sons in the second room, and the last time the sixth married family almost spent candles in a small chamber cave room, it was the woman's mother's family who came to make trouble before changing the big room. Nai thought about it: "Let's expand the house a little more and buy some houses in the surrounding neighborhoods." ”

Master Niu San said: "Most of those are clansmen who were separated from our mansion in the early years, and I am afraid that they will not sell." ”

Master Niu snorted: "If the Zhenguo Mansion wants to buy it, who dares not to sell it?" ”

The second master Niu said: "What if they ask for a sky-high price? Master Niu looked at him amusedly and said nothing.

Master Niu San said: "Big brother, the rangers in Beijing have been rampant in the past few months. No matter how much face we have in our house, it can't compare to the prince's relatives. ”

Master Niu just waved his hand: "They don't dare." ”

His two brothers glanced at each other, and Master Niu San said, "Big brother, it's better to inquire carefully." They really dare. ”

Master Niu waved his hand again: "They don't dare." ”

He was wrong, those rangers dared to do so. Master Niu ordered people to bomb the neighbors near the left to buy their houses, and none of these people were willing, and Da Layue sat at the gate of the town and the country and cried and grabbed the ground. Master Niu was angry, and said to the steward at the head: "Beat them all away!" Kill it or not. The steward really led the man to carry the stick and roll it over, and he was injured.

Among them, there is an old man, who is the uncle of Master Niu, who is over 70 years old. The thugs of the Zhenguo Mansion didn't dare to touch him, but beat his grandson. The old man protected his grandson and squeezed hard. On this cold day, where can the old bones eat? It was gone the night when I brought it back. Master Niu was shocked when he heard this, and he was afraid of offending the clansmen, so he sent someone over to apologize and give a white gift, so that the family blew out.

On the third night after the old man left, the evil slave who was in charge and wounded the old man in the lead was killed by the ranger, and all of them were killed with a knife. The steward was still in charge, and he died in the house; That thug died in the tavern! The murderous ranger still left a note stating why he killed the man. Zhenguo Mansion suddenly caused a sensation, and they all said that the ranger is the blue sky, protecting the people, eliminating violence and peace. So he became more and more afraid of the town and the country, and he didn't sell the house even if he yelled to death.

The first time Master Niu suffered a loss in his life was in the year of the turmoil in Beijing, Jiannan Jiedu ordered Fang Xiong's soldiers to force him on a trumped-up charge, and locked all the men in the prison temple, and took the opportunity to raid the treasury in the house. At that time, he had no military power in his own hands, so he could only swallow his front teeth in his stomach. Now that his son and nephew are all out of the picture, what are you afraid of? Nai said coldly: "Since they love to meddle in their affairs, let them take care of it." Tell the people below, "Since the ranger is only in charge of killing people, we will not kill people, but only demolish the house!" ”

The next day, more than a dozen families rushed to the house of a neighbor who was not surnamed Niu, threw all the people inside, and forcibly demolished the house. The leader threw down a silver ticket haughtily: "It's enough to buy all the things in your house." ”

The family had already cried Huang Tian, but the old lady in charge didn't cry, and spit on his face: "The beast with a black heart and liver, pay attention to the retribution in front of you, and the reason of heaven is intolerable!" ”

The family laughed: "I haven't hurt people or bought things and gave money, what is unreasonable?" ”

Suddenly, someone said loudly: "Old man, take the money." I saw a man wearing a straw hat slowly walking out of the crowd, picking up the silver ticket from the ground and handing it to the old lady, "I demolished your house for the New Year, don't you want to compensate according to the price?" The old lady didn't want it, so she somehow stretched out her hand to take it. The straw hat turned to look at the thugs in Zhenguo's Mansion and said, "I've been paying attention to these 'rangers' for some days. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm afraid you're wrong. Many people have died because of the forced sale and forced buying, from the court officials to the relatives of various princes. You are just slaves, why bother to give your life for the master's house? No matter how confident the Zhenguo Mansion is, where can it compare to the princess's own uncle. ”

The crowd was in an uproar, and the group of thugs suddenly turned black. The leader shouted: "You are talking nonsense! ”

The straw hat said, "If you don't believe it, just check it." Then he turned and walked away. The onlookers did not consciously separate their ways to let him go, and even those who were curious did not dare to follow.

Sure enough. That night, the dozen or so people who demolished the house were all killed. Master Niu left a warning next to his pillow, which read: There will be a next time, and the mastermind will not be tolerated. Master Niu was frightened, holding the paper and shaking his hand for a long time, he didn't dare to fight the neighbor's idea again.

It's just that since the house has not been expanded, the second and third rooms have been divided again. Master Niu thought about it and sighed lowly: "It's really not possible, it's really only a separation." ”

Mrs. Niu listened and said, "Where can we divide the family?" When the old lady leaves, does the old man still remember? When they leave this country, they lose their protection. The three rooms are not enough; There is not even an official in the second room, and people are bullied when they go out. Those clansmen who had been separated from the mansion earlier refused to move out of our mansion, didn't they just hope that if there was something to do, they would be sheltered by our mansion? There are many houses in the house, and when I go to check it again tomorrow, it will not shorten the house where the child will get married. ”

Mr. Niu was so happy that he gave her a look: "Please, Mrs. Niu!" ”

Mrs. Niu didn't care about being busy a year ago, and personally stepped around the mansion, and sure enough, she found a small guest house in the northwest corner. Although it is a little smaller, there are three main rooms, which is enough for several young masters to get married. Hurriedly went to the second room to tell Mrs. Niu.

Mrs. Niu said with a wry smile: "Big lady, don't hide it, even if you have a yard, it's useless, no one wants to marry in." ”

Mrs. Niu immediately understood. sneered: "Brother and sister, don't worry, wait until the spring of next year, at most next summer, and there may be a lot of people who will post it." Nai curled the corner of his mouth on the right, "The family affair set by our second child is the daughter of the prefect of Huizhou in Lingnan, and the girl doesn't have any rules to say; The best thing is that I can bring back a big deal for our house. ”

Mrs. Niu said in a low voice: "What good can people who post it like that, they don't sincerely want to marry our family." ”

Mrs. Niu glanced at her: "Your two children are concubines, and they can't get married to any good families." It's good that a daughter-in-law can send a dowry into the door. ”

Mrs. Niu said: "Even if there is no dowry, the girl is good, and it is better for the two to live in harmony than anything else." Our family is not short of money. ”

Mrs. Niu sneered: "If the family is divided, I don't know how much money the second master can share?" Is it enough for so many sons in your second room? ”

Mrs. Niu said: "After all, it is not up to our woman to decide the matter of separating the family. The eldest master is a gentleman, and he will not be bad for his brothers. ”

Mrs. Niu couldn't help but spit on her face! Although Master Niu is a military general, he is pedantic and tight, and he has never treated his brother slowly for many years. If you really split the family, even if you have less from your own family, you will give more to the second room - the third room has a good cow inheritance, and the second room has many sons and is not successful. Nai scolded: "It's so shameless! Only bullying our lord is really, thinking about such an idea of furniture! ”

Mrs. Niu laughed: "The eldest lady can be regarded as saying something heart-wrenching. It's just that it's useless for the eldest lady to jump on her feet, the eldest lady is such a personality. Isn't the eldest lady virtuous? Could it be that he is preparing to quarrel with the big man for the sake of a small amount of money? ”

Mrs. Niu originally disliked the large population and consumption of the second room, and it would be okay to go out if she really divided them; It's just that she will even divide the three rooms together - she also pointed to Niu Jiye to support her son outside. Nai said: "If the family is divided, the eldest lord takes pity on his brother and divides some of his inheritance, how long can your house last outside?" ”

Mrs. Niu sat upright and waved her handkerchief: "This doesn't bother Mrs. Tuo, we have our own plans." The angry Mrs. Niu turned around and left. The second Mrs. Niu was still shouting behind: "The eldest lady is leaving?" I don't send it~~"

Mrs. Niu returned to her courtyard and thought about it for half an hour, but she really couldn't figure out why the second room wanted to leave the Zhenguo Mansion. It really doesn't benefit them at all, and they don't know where their livelihood will be in the future.

As everyone knows, Mrs. Niu Er has already planned this matter. Out of the door of this town's national mansion, he is an old lady. With all the money in his hands, he no longer has to look at the face of the sour woman with three knives, how comfortable he is. As for the son's failure...... There are few industries in the horizontal and vertical houses. Only two of the eight sons of Master Niu are concubines, and the rest are concubines. The fourth Niu Jiyao let the thief kill him in his early years, and almost went to the second wife of Niu for half his life; Now only the eldest is left.

At that time, the eldest wife and the third wife in the house saw that she never cared about the second master of Niu's concubine was pregnant, and saw that the concubine gave birth to a large piece, but the second wife of Niu only pretended to be virtuous and virtuous, saying that "the son of the second master is naturally my son." "As everyone knows, none of these concubines are born to a mother. When it grows to a small one, it will be eight. At the age of nine, he was thirteen or fourteen, and the aunts who gave birth to them gradually died. Because the second wife, the mother-in-law, has always treated the concubines and aunts well, the children's mothers entrusted their sons to the second wife one by one before they died. If one of the aunts dies, the second wife will accept a maid with a straight face for the second master, and will not accept it until she has given birth to eight sons.

Mrs. Niu has her own plan in her heart. She was originally the granddaughter of a fourth-grade official, and her uncle opened a medical hall, so she knew that a woman would inevitably hurt her body when she gave birth. If your own man is not successful, you won't get much property sooner or later. Her uncle once said: The most valuable thing in the world is people, because people can work and earn money. Although her man is incompetent, he is just like their brothers, and he is also a roundabout. If the family goes out in the coming day, the head of the family must have the final say. In addition to his own son, there are six other concubines and six concubines' daughters-in-law to call.

These six concubines have made her honest and obedient since she was a child, just like raising six guys for her son, and these guys have all studied in the Niu family. The money and property obtained by the division of the family are not enough for the seven masters; If there is only one, it will be enough. If there is any shortcoming, send those six out to do things. Therefore, the daughter-in-law of the old seven and eight can only be the daughter of an honest and reliable small family, and she must be able to do needlework, and it would be better if she knew some other skills to support the family. You can't marry those who want to get into the business of the second daughter-in-law who didn't enter the big house.

Seeing that the New Year was coming, the second and third rooms were still bitten to death and wanted to be separated, so Master Niu loosened. Mrs. Niu was in a hurry, and walked around the house for a whole afternoon, and when it was time for dinner, she gritted her teeth and said, "Come on, go and call your uncle Zong." ”

Not long after, Niu Jizong came and saluted his mother. Mrs. Niu pulled him to sit down on the edge of the kang and said, "Now you also know the affairs in the house, your second uncle and third uncle are going to split up." There is no need to guess this matter, it must have been provoked by Sanfang. Heartless! It wasn't you Lao Tzu who raised their karma back then, is it still his Lao Tzu? ”

Niu Jizong said: "It's just that now the house can't live in it." ”

Mrs. Niu said, "Why can't you live?" I have found the courtyard, but the second room refuses, saying that your daughter-in-law has a bad reputation and no one is willing to marry her daughter. Niu Jizong frowned. Mrs. Niu really sighed, "The first two years of accommodating her were nothing more than for the sake of two grandchildren." Now that the child has also entered the barracks, her reputation has been ruined like this. Zong'er, divorce her, and my mother will marry another good daughter-in-law for you. In this way, there is no reason for the second room to be separated, and the third room can't go. ”

Niu Jizong immediately said: "No. The wife's daughter-in-law is just an excuse for them, and even if they don't have it, there must be something else, and they can't follow their thoughts. ”

Mrs. Niu said: "Seeing the move, now let's block this first." ”

Niu Jizong looked at his mother, knelt down on his knees and said, "Madam, tie the hair and share the pillow seat, and Huangquan is a friend." The son was reluctant to divorce his wife. ”
