The Qiao family's division still didn't alarm too many people in the end.

Including Qiao Baisheng, there are a total of three clan elders, and the other is the village chief of Lijia Village and Qiao Chengyin's two brothers.

Under the witness of so many people, Qiao Chengyin himself was a little unreasonable when he talked about his plan to split the family, after all, according to the wishes of the Li family, the house in the family is that the eldest Qiao Shi still occupies the east chamber, and the second Qiao hammer can get four rooms in the west chamber, and their old couple and Qiao Baisheng still live in three rooms in the main house.

Over the years, Qiao Chengyin has opened a total of six acres of mud land, and their old couple and the old lady are going to follow Qiao Shi to support the elderly, so the mud land should account for the first three acres; Qiao Hammer has two sons, divided into two acres; Qiao Mutou has only one son, divided into one acre.

At this point, Qiao Chengtong couldn't help but mention it anymore: "Wood is also a family, why did you lose a house when you became a parent?" Where do you live? ”

"Ahem, isn't that unfinished? Wood is not just getting married, and he can't be wronged by anything. Isn't there still more than an acre of sandy land in our house by the river? Give it to him alone, the place is flat and wide, isn't it more than enough to build a few rooms? Qiao Chengyin's face was slightly red, and he said what the Li family had said many times.

Lijia Village is built along the Anlan River from east to west, the east, the south behind it, and the west of the end of the village are all layers of mountains, only on the other side of the river there are a lot of fertile fields belonging to the Li landlord in the town, and the people in the village who are a little passable will rent a few acres of land in the hands of the village chief, the spokesperson of the Li landlord, and the chewing for a year will come out; If you have the ability to go up or down like the Qiao family, you will find a flat col on the east mountain and open some mountains to come out, and you don't need to pay taxes to anyone, and after you open it, you can go to the village chief to report and record one.

There are also some people who have not entered the project and do not have the physical strength to go to the mountains to open muddy fields, so they will open some sandy land along the bank of the Anlan River to plant some sorghum or something, and eat to supplement it. Because the sandy land is opened on the shore of the Anlan River, it is swept away by the flood water that comes down from the upstream almost every rainy season, and if anyone has not had time to harvest the grain planted on it, they will work hard for more than half a year without harvesting the grains. After a long time, the people who opened the sand land by the river gained experience, and basically planted some vegetables with a broken maturity period, which was regarded as the private land of each family.

Such land doesn't even need to be reported, and who knows if it will be able to continue to be used next year.

Qiao Chengyin also once opened a sandy land, which was at least two miles away from Qiao's house, but it was also separated from the village road and a fish pond that had long been abandoned.

The lower part of the sandy land is flooded by the Anlan River every year, and the higher part is connected to an abandoned fish pond, which is as desolate as it can be.

As soon as Qiao Chengyin's plan was said, Qiao Chengtong stopped talking, after all, it was a matter in his brother's house, and it was inevitable that he would be told if he interjected too much.

Qiao Baisheng listened and glanced at the Li clan and did not refute, but knocked on the table, "Cheng Yin has any other plans to say it together, right?" Having said that, a few of us old immortals will help you figure it out. One person counts short, and two people count long! ”

"It's better to be knowledgeable, since Uncle Cheng Yin said so, I will go back and hand over the sandy land and the title deed of the fish pond to Brother Mutou." Village Chief Li and Qiao Chengyin are about the same age, and they used to be called Uncle Qiao Baisheng, but a few days ago, his youngest son set Qiao Yuanfang from Qiao Shishi's family, so he changed his mind to be a generation shorter. As a distant cousin of the landlord Li in the town, Village Chief Li has no less benefits on weekdays, and he is the richest-looking man in the entire Li Family Village. Always smiling and seeing everyone is kind, but the more such people want to calculate, the more they are indifferent.

"Wait a minute." Qiao Chengyin hurriedly stopped, "That's what I'm going to talk about next." Can our family be divided into households, after all, they are all the sons of our old couple, and it will always feel sad if the account is divided into three parts. If the title deed of the wood is completed, we will keep it. ”

"Huh?" It's not the first time that Village Chief Li has heard this statement, after all, every year, according to the head of the household, the Baijiaji has to draw people to the border city to build the city wall or do handymen or something, and the handyman can also earn a few silver coins, and if he dies or is injured, there will be a good silver money to compensate, but Qiao Chengyin's words came suddenly and justifiably, and some of them made him unable to come back to his senses: "Divide the family or not?" ”

"Yes......" Qiao Chengyin was about to nod affirmatively according to Li's previous instructions, but Li, who had been listening to the door of the hall for a long time, suddenly rushed out to stop him: "How can the old man say that?" Didn't you make Village Chief Li embarrassed? Since they have decided to divide the family, let's divide it thoroughly, and this account will also be divided. ”

"Go, go, how can you women come in and interject when men speak! And there are no rules, it's just nonsense. Qiao Baisheng was about to beat someone with a cane as soon as his beard curled, and the other two clan elders next to him hurriedly persuaded a few words, and then he went down the steps, took a sip of the wine glass, and asked the other two sons: "What do you think?" ”

Qiao Chengjin replied sullenly: "I'm just an only son, how do I know what to do?" ”

Qiao Chengtong waited for this stubble, and took it casually: "Actually, the second sister-in-law said well, if you don't divide it, the family will be lively and lively, and if you divide the family, then divide it thoroughly, don't make it more difficult to judge justice when the child is older in the future." "The Yang family of his family can tell him several times before he comes, he must protect the wood family completely, and when he reaches out to help in the future, he will not get into trouble.

"Well, listen to Cheng Tong's words, that's it, if you divide your family, you have to have a separate family! Why weren't you so indecisive when I divided the three of you brothers? The distant roots of the wooden family are, after the family is separated, let him come to my room every morning to learn to read, and if he is older, he will send him to the school if he is able. Qiao Baisheng directly made a decision, and Li's opinion was directly placed on Qiao Chengtong's credit, and this kind of skill is only possessed by his old man.

This is agreed here, and Village Chief Li's pen and paper did not stop, and he wrote out the division of Qiao Chengyin's family, so far he always felt that something was wrong, and asked one more sentence out of the position of Zhongzheng and witness: "I don't know how much money Uncle Chengyin gave to Brother Mu to build a house?" ”

This can be embarrassing Qiao Chengyin, he really doesn't know how much money there is in the family, so he looked up and called Li Shi and said: "Shi Niang took out the silver box at home, and divided the silver money in front of the village chief and the clan elders, and by the way, I also said that the two fat pigs in the family are now for the two study boys, which can't be moved, and the thirty chickens are Shi Niang's pocket money, and I won't give it to the three sons, what do you need for farm tools or wood, and I'll choose a few things later." In addition, the hammer family has two more rooms, and you people in this room will make up for it with two taels of silver to subsidize the wood. ”

"Dad, over the years, we have handed over a penny of our money to the public high school, where is the remaining money?" Qiao Langtou immediately cried bitter, but looking at Qiao Mutou, who was "driven" out of the house by his father and didn't dare to say anything, he felt a little pitiful, and added a sentence: "I'll give Mu an IOU, and when I divide the family, I and Yuanhong will go out to work hard, and I can always save a little to make up for him." ”

The Li family, who came out of the wooden silver box, just heard this sentence, and the only thing that went wrong with the separation was that the second hammer was out of control, and he couldn't help but put the box on the table: "It's just that two houses will cost two taels of silver IOUs, so how many silver IOUs should be paid if your father gave birth to you and raised you to build a house for you to marry a daughter-in-law?" ”
