No matter how Shen Ji and Shen objected, it was the master of the sect who was in charge.

As long as the eldest master of the sect insists, this division of property is determined. Shen was a little apprehensive when he saw this, and anyone could see that the early division of production was just to take care of Brother Xiaozhang. As Brother Xiaozhang's father, Shen was naturally unhappy, but he had to take into account the feelings of his brother and sister-in-law.

Shen Ji didn't care about his wife, but he felt that the eldest master of the sect didn't trust him. Could it be that when his father and mother pass away, he, as the eldest brother, can't justly preside over the division of the family, so he has to advance it? Which is this to prevent?

How to divide the property, it is clearly written in the law, regardless of the concubine, the sons are divided equally. The difference between the current and the original Zongfang is that Shen Jue "returned to the sect" and has an heir, which is only one room.

Grandma's mother's family was unhappy, but they only felt that their daughter and son-in-law had suffered a loss, and complained to Mrs. Zongfang. The grandmother was personally ordered by the eldest lady of the sect, and in the past, she was also partial to the eldest daughter-in-law between the two daughters-in-law.

Now that she heard the complaints over there, the eldest lady of the sect pulled down her face and said to the eldest daughter-in-law: "Do you think you have suffered a loss?" ”

Grandma Mechanic hurriedly said, "Where will it be?" If the fifth uncle doesn't leave home, isn't it the same way? Could it be that the daughter-in-law is stingy? ”

Mrs. Zongfang's face is better.

Some people are annoyed, some people laugh, the second grandmother's family got the news, and they smiled in private: "In this way, don't you just divide the family property and go to seventy percent, which is twice as much as the long house......

Although the second grandmother was also happy, she held back and smiled: "That's Xiao Zhang'er's, can't they be counted together......"

"Oh, isn't Xiao Tong'er's industry worse than his brother's in the future......" the person sighed.

Shen Ji and Shen both have concubines, and the second grandmother stopped laughing when she thought of this.

The reason why the eldest master of the sect divided the production in advance was just in case, so he naturally had to do it completely, and he would have to worry about it later.

The official family directly invited the prefect as a guest, and the witnesses invited by the clan were the old lady of the eighth room and the second master of the sect, and the mother's family of the three daughters-in-law were present.

The clan estate, except for the sacrificial field and sacrificial property, which is directly inherited by the small long house, is divided into three equal parts, and it is to be divided into three rooms for the brothers. As for the public property in the clan that is in charge of the clan, it is still in accordance with the rules, and the clan is in charge of it.

When it was time to draw lots, Shen Ji and Shen brothers, no one would take the lead.

After pushing for a while, after a lot of brothers, friends and brothers, and earning enough praise from everyone, the two brothers proposed to let Xiao Zhang'er go first.

Although Brother Xiaozhang is only six years old, he looks white and cute, but he is generous and generous, not afraid of things like ordinary children, and after listening to the words of the elders, he honestly stepped forward to draw lots.

Shen Ji was humble, and he refused to catch the lot for the second time. Shen is behind Brother Zhang, and the rest is Shen Ji

The people here, who doesn't know that Brother Xiaozhang is Shen's parent, so Shen took advantage of the family, and only Shen Machinery suffered from the loss, how many people looked at Shen Machinery and wanted to see how he coped.

Seeing that Shen Ji didn't care at all, no matter what everyone's previous impression of this Shen family sect was, it was a little better now. This is everyone's temperament, only small families will openly turn their faces on the two brothers for a few silver coins.

The small long house industry and the small second house industry are taken care of by themselves, and the small third room Xiao Zhang'er is still young, and the industry will be handed over to Shen to take care of it, but the property list is reported to the government and the Lu family respectively, and it is agreed that the Lu family will check the accounts at the end of each year.

For such a disposal method, the Lu family is very satisfied. Although he is a cheap grandson, but in the end he is the one who serves his daughter's incense, Master Lu Jiu and Mrs. Lu Jiu are also close to Brother Xiaozhang these days, and they don't want him to suffer. is the Lu family's aunts and uncles, and they also like Xiao Zhang'er's well-behaved and lovely nephew very much.

The Lu family was satisfied, and the second grandmother's family was also happy, only the family of the eldest grandmother had an ugly face. However, due to the previous instructions of the grandmother of Zongfang Machinery, and Shen Machinery had no intention of fighting for property, no one talked much at this time.

The brothers of other families divide their production, and they are all arrows and crossbows, but the sect is a brother and a brother. Not only did others look good-looking, but even the master of the sect and the lady of the sect were also quite pleased.

After using the vegetarian mat and everyone dispersed, the eldest master of the sect called his two sons to the study, took out two land deeds, and handed them to Shen Yi: "These are the two Zhuangzi that were purchased in Zhili a few years ago, and they were not in the public school...... The population of your house is larger than that of your second brother, and the expenses are also large, which can also allow you to enter more, and it is difficult to save money in Beijing

"Master" Shen Ji was quite surprised, but he refused to accept it: "The son's property is enough, these are still kept by the master......"

"Don't be verbose and tell you to take it, you can't run as well as the second child, but there are more places to use silver, and it's always good to have more inputs." The eldest master of the sect stuffed the land deed into Shen Ji's hands.

"But this?" Shen Ji glanced at his younger brother next to him, a little hesitant.

In his opinion, money is nothing more than foreign things, as long as there is no shortage, but reputation is the most important. He pushed the production in front of people, although he was not famous for thousands of miles in the past, but he also showed a high moral character, and now he has to take his father's subsidy in private, which is inevitably a little uncomfortable.

Everyone is willing to take advantage, but it is not possible to take advantage of it and have peace of mind.

Just like Shen, after a trip to Beijing, he also gained knowledge, and he knew that the future of the sect was on his brother, and he was relieved of the previous little plans, but he was willing to support each other with his brother, and he was not willing to be suspicious of his brother because of money.

Now that the split family accounts for the majority, the second grandmother is only happy for her son, but Shen is uneasy. If this makes my brother and sister-in-law have a pimple in their hearts, it will be more than worth the loss.

Now that the eldest master of the sect has another subsidy to appease Xiao Changfang, Shen is in favor of it with both hands, where will he oppose it?

Shen hurriedly said: "This is my father's intention, big brother will accept it...... Not to mention that it is not easy to live in the capital, let's just say that the eldest brother will be full of clothes in June, and it will also take a lot of expenses. If it weren't for this division of production, the ...... that should have been made out of the public accounts"

Seeing Shen's reaction like this, Shen Ji was quite surprised.

He knows his younger brother's temperament, although he is quite tactful in dealing with people, but he is a little careful about money, how can he be generous now?

The eldest master of the sect was not surprised, and looked at the second son with great satisfaction and said, "Brother has finally grown up...... It's not an inner house woman, just staring at the piece in front of her, what can she do? ”

Shen Man's face flushed, remembering the little calculation in his heart before, and he was ashamed.

The eldest master of the sect comforted the eldest son in private, but others didn't know it, but the two grandmothers knew.

The smile on the grandmother's face was a little more real, and she was full of respect in front of her mother-in-law; Although the second grandmother is a little slanderous, she also knows that it is not easy to care. I just don't know what to do.

Only the eldest wife of the Zongfang did not know about it, but for the sake of the peace of her children and grandchildren, she couldn't help but think a lot after the separation, and she was a little hesitant, so she sent someone to invite the eldest lady of the Zongfang to come over.

Although the master of Zongfang was recuperating in the main courtyard before, he may have completely moved to the study in the front yard after getting up, but now the husband and wife are not visible in front of people, but they don't say a word behind them.

Mrs. Zongfang knew that her husband complained about herself, and she couldn't say whether it was a grievance or something else, but she was old and didn't have the heart to win over her husband, so she let him go.

"Master, it was originally divided into five or five points, but now it is three or three, in the end, everyone suffers, or I will divide a part of the dowry first to appease one or two? In this family, I still have to rely on the boss to take care of my brothers and nephews in the future......" said Mrs. Zongfang.

The eldest master of the sect did not mention the matter of the capital property, and said with drooping eyelids: "That's your dowry, how to arrange it and ...... it at will"

Mrs. Zongfang nodded and said, "There is a brother in the second room, and he is a person who can catch money, so there is nothing to worry about." On the side of the long house, the boss will return to Beijing in two months, and the industry here is still good and cheap to take care of. It is difficult to go out for a thousand days at home, and it is not easy for them to be husband and wife, the grade in Beijing is low, and there is a lot of filial piety outside, and now the children are older again, and the expenses are more and more The rest, wait for me for a hundred years, and then let the three rooms be divided equally......"

Earnestly, in the end, it is a mother's heart, but it is the heart of the eldest master of the sect who listens.

When I saw her sick before, I thought she really regretted it, but I didn't expect to be able to say such a thing. What does it mean to be "five or five points", did she forget that Zongfang was originally three sons, not two? Could it be that Brother Jue can't share 30% of the industry?

The eldest master of the sect sneered: "It is very unnecessary to accept your things, I am afraid that it will be difficult for Brother Jue to close his eyes underground, I have three sons, but you only have two, your dowry, Xiao Sanfang, don't dare to covet it, and you don't need to be courteous in the future, Brother Zhang'er will not need you to be attentive" said, and left with his sleeves.

The eldest lady of the sect was pale, holding on to the kang, and her body was almost unstable......

Beijing, Shangshu Mansion.

In April, after the national funeral, the plain white of the courtyard was removed, and the kitchen became more meaty. Because Shen Jue's death was connected with the state funeral, Shangshu Mansion has been deserted for half a year without a banquet.

Now that the national funeral has passed, Shen Rui, Sister Yu, and the fourth brother have also changed into plain clothes in addition to clothes.

Just in time for the birthday of the third master, it was just a loose birthday, and there were no big banquet guests, but a few tables were still prepared, and the in-laws of the clan were invited to come over, and it was lively for a day.

The third master thought about his age, sighed, and became more and more eager for fame in his heart.

It is said that he is in his thirties, but he still has nothing to do, and can only rely on his brother and sister-in-law to live. Look at the nephews Shen Li and Shen Ying, who are younger than themselves, they can't be said to be famous, they also have their own strengths, and they are at the top of their families.

If you look forward to it, you will inevitably suffer from gains and losses.

Thinking that there was less than a year left in the spring festival, the third master also began to get nervous, and before he knew it, he ate a few more cups and became drunk.

However, when he was called to the upper room and looked at the paperwork in front of him, the third master suddenly sobered up and stared wide-eyed: "Big brother, sister-in-law, what is this......"
