Chapter 868: Separation
In today's year, the word separation is the biggest taboo for large families. Even Lu Sanlang, who has a bad relationship with his father and two brothers, is also separated from each other, even if Mrs. Lu quietly subsidizes countless people and blatantly favors her younger son, she can't divide the whole family cleanly after all.
Parents are here, no matter how separated, most families regard it as a golden rule, so when Mrs. Li got this message from her nephew, of course, she was shocked and unbelievable, and immediately rushed over by car that day. When she was politely brought to Qing'an Hall, she found that it was full of people.
However, the most eye-catching thing is the pair of golden boys and girls who are a good match. Mrs. Li had only seen Zhu Ying before, and she had been thinking about what kind of man could be worthy of such a dazzling girl, but now when she saw Zhang Shou, she couldn't help but feel like this.
When Zhu Ying came forward in person and introduced her to today's arrival, she found out that in addition to Zhao Guogong Zhu Jing's son, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law and son-in-law, the in-laws of Zhao Guogong's mansion had arrived. Weinan Bo Zhang Kang arrived, and Zhang Shou's adoptive mother Wu also arrived, and both of them greeted her very politely when they saw her, and she naturally hurriedly returned the courtesy.
Seeing that the two of them were all looking as usual, Mrs. Li faintly felt that the so-called separation of the Zhao Guogong Mansion was probably not a big deal, and it was not as she thought, in the future, the brothers and sisters would take care of their own affairs and ignore others.
Soon, a mother came out to talk in the east room, saying that Mrs. Tai invited them in. Mrs. Li wanted to be left behind, but she saw that Zhao Guogong and his wife let Wei Nanbo first, and then asked her to come forward, realizing that this was according to the third generation of the Zhu family, so she was humble and followed. When she entered the slightly dimly lit room, she saw Mrs. Tai leaning on the large pillow on the bed.
Although the person is quite thin, he is in good spirits at this time, and when he saw her, he smiled kindly, and said softly: "Mother-in-law, the children are about to get married, but they suddenly invited you over, which is really abrupt." However, some things are delayed until later, and some things are delayed until later, and I am afraid that each other will have a problem in their hearts. ”
Such a straightforward and unabashed way of speaking, Mrs. Li is the first time she has seen it in a relatively strange person. Therefore, she was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said with a smile: "Even if the second son marries my family's Qing Niang, they are also juniors, so naturally they should listen to the elders in everything, how can they be suspicious because of a little thing?" ”
"That being said, I can't afford to treat them badly."
Mrs. Tai raised her head and glanced at Zhu Er with a smile, and then ordered everyone to sit, but she drank two sips of ginseng soup under the service of Mother Jiang, and then straightened up again and raised her head.
"The title of Duke Zhao was won by Jing'er himself, so although he has other brothers who are not successful, they are not here now."
"Although I, the mother, am still there, but I let them divide up early, others say that I am ruthless, but I know that if they don't let them out, it will be even more useless, and they can only eat and wait for death under the shadow of Zhao Guogong's mansion for the rest of their lives. In the past, I thought that Erlang would not be able to get rid of such a result, but I didn't expect to witness a miracle when I was old. ”
He was actually described as a miracle by his grandmother, and Zhu Er was desperate to find a crack in the ground to get into. However, when the second half of Mrs. Tai's words came out, his face gradually turned from red to normal.
"Erlang has an eldest brother who is all excellent in literature and martial arts, he is never afraid of hardship, and he works hard, and he has a very smart sister, who can do everything at a time, and never cares what outsiders say.
"In fact, there are the most people in the world like him, if everyone is amazing, then what's the use of the court's selection? Therefore, the best thing that my grandson-in-law, Ah Shou, did was not to force everyone to be outstanding in civil and military affairs, but to let them find what they could do. ”
"I know that Erlang may not like to face the loess with his back to the sky and deal with a group of old farmers in the first place, but if he can really do this, and he is not afraid of hardship, then he has far surpassed his uncles and uncles and the like."
Speaking of this in one breath, Mrs. Tai took a break for a while, and then said with a smile: "Today's family is divided, and the family temple is not divided, which is the foundation of Dalang's business." Moreover, Jing'er and his wife are still there, and the other grange properties are divided into four, one for each person. ”
As soon as these words came out, not to mention that Mrs. Li was taken aback, even Weinan Bo Zhang Kang was taken aback, and Wu looked at Zhang Shou and Zhu Ying with a bewildered face. As a result, the first to oppose it was also Weinan Bo Zhang Kang.
"Mrs. Tai, you and Zhao Guogong and Mrs. are all fine, just divide the family for your grandchildren, this is already very out of line, but even if you want to divide it, there is no same reason as juniors and elders. Even if it is two or one to add five, let the three children take half of it, who can say a word or two? Listen to my advice, wouldn't it be better to be harmonious and beautiful in this way? ”
"Wei Nanbo, what you said works in other families, but not in ours. Da Lang is already a person who can take charge of himself, but every month's salary is still handed over to the public middle school, and then he goes to receive his share of money and food. Although his father specially allocated him an annual amount, what if he is not greedy and doesn't care about money, what if it is not enough? Although the family system is like this, how inconvenient is it? ”
"Your daughter is now the person who presides over the feed, but just because she is in charge, she can't go to Da Lang everywhere, even if she can't refute Da Lang's use because of this, but she can't give whatever he wants, and she has to do the so-called limit to give it. You ask her, is this a good housewife? ”
Weinan Boden was speechless, and he didn't even need to look at his daughter, he knew that Mrs. Tai's words were to the root.
He doesn't have a right-hand man like Zhu Tingfang in his family, if he can, how can he stand up and have to do this kind of thing and live with the rules of the family? He despises those fathers who are useless themselves, but only know how to suppress their sons!
And Mrs. Tai saw that Wei Nanbo had been obviously convinced, so she said slowly: "Don't look at Erlang now, it seems that anyone in this family can suppress him, but he is also an arrogant man, and a man who will marry in the future, do you still want him to receive the little money every month, live under the wings of his father and brother, and open his mouth every time he uses the money?" ”
"If you divide the family property, if anyone really can't control it, it will all be ruined, that's his business, even if he is poor and starving, he can't complain about half a word. But if you don't divide the family property, looking at harmony, in fact, how many complaints are there in private? ”
At this time, even Mrs. Li, who had made up her mind in her heart when she came, must persuade Mrs. Tai to withdraw her previous plan, was unconsciously persuaded. After all, Mrs. Tai's plan to divide the property is already so fair that it is too biased towards the three grandchildren, and she has never thought about it as to why she should not share Zhu Ying's marriage.
However, before she could speak, she heard a low voice from the side: "Mrs. Tai is very thoughtful, I shouldn't have said anything." But Yingying married into our family, and to be honest, our family has one more powerful family. If Yingying divides the property again, she will ask you to be a witness when she goes back, and make a list of them, so that she can leave them to her children in the future. ”
Although his voice was low, Wu's words were somewhat resolute and unquestionable. Seeing the dowry of the second daughter-in-law of the Zhu family today, and then looking at the dowry of the daughter-in-law of the Zhu family last time, which seemed to be similar to Zhu Ying, Zhang Shou was simply married back to a daughter-in-law who was richer than a little golden figure, and her understanding was even deeper.
Although Zhang Shou directly handed over all her property to Zhu Ying after marriage, she never asked her daughter-in-law for her dowry, but now that Mrs. Tai wants to give Zhu Ying another share of the family property, how can she not be surprised?
Even if people trust Zhang Shou, they also trust her, but they always have to make things clear and do things in advance. Otherwise, after a long time, what if there is a case?
Mrs. Tai is already very familiar with the Wu family, and at this time, seeing that she has never expressed her opinions, she is so insistent, and Zhu Ying has immediately stepped forward to whisper persuasion, but people are rarely stubborn, they just refuse to listen, and Zhang Shou laughed silently, so she laughed.
"Well, if you make it clear in advance, there's nothing wrong with it, just do what your in-laws say."
Seeing that Mrs. Tai deliberately used such a title to distinguish herself from Mrs. Li, the Wu family was naturally grateful, and immediately apologized for surpassing Mrs. Li by speaking first.
Mrs. Li did not despise Wu because she was just an adoptive mother, and hurriedly said that it would be okay, and then she expressed her opinion, that is, to separate the family and not to separate.
As for such a proposal, Zhao Guogong Zhu Jing nodded without hesitation: "It should be like this." The Zhao Guogong Mansion is not like those families who have lived in the same house for several generations and have many children and grandchildren, so they have to live separately because they live too crowded. There are many empty houses here, and if Erlang moves out after getting married, it will be wasteful and deserted for us to live in such a big place with Dalang and his wife. He is not the little fat man of the Lu family. ”
Lu Sanlang was brought out as a negative teaching material at this time, Zhang Shou couldn't help but want to laugh a little, and when he saw Zhu Er again, he couldn't bear it at all, and laughed directly sideways, so he coughed and said: "What my father-in-law said is that it is best for the family to live in one piece naturally, and Yingying's yard is still left, and she and I come back to live from time to time, not to mention Second Brother Zhu?" ”
Mrs. Li had heard that Zhu Ying still went back to her parents' house from time to time after marriage, and she was not alone, often even Zhang Shou came together, and sometimes even brought the mother-in-law of the Wu family, and that posture was only regarded as a visit, at this time it was really confirmed, and she couldn't help but be amazed. So, she smiled and agreed: "If the in-laws say so, then I will rest assured." ”
Since there was no objection to the separation of the family, Mrs. Tai took advantage of the fact that she was still in good spirits at this time, so she asked Jiang's mother to bring a copy of the booklet and handed it to her son and daughter-in-law and the elders of the two granddaughters-in-law and grandson-in-law, and Jiang's mother explained the value one by one.
And Jiang's mother's memory and organization are obviously very good, which ones were given by war exploits, which ones were bought with the silver money from the reward, which ones were business income, and which ones changed hands because of what happened to other families...... Anyway, everywhere in the field house shop, she said it clearly.
And when it came to the silver money stored in the bank, Wei Nanbo and Mrs. Li just wanted to say that they wanted to avoid suspicion, but they were stopped by Mrs. Tai's words: "All the money in my family is innocent, and I am not afraid that others will know, you just have to look at it, otherwise where will you know if it is fair?" ”
Mrs. Li and Wei Nanbo, you look at me, and when you go to look at the Wu family, you find that the Wu family is also looking at them. After the three of them were stunned for a moment, they simply lowered their heads and continued to look. And this time, it was not any of them who spoke first, but Zhao Guogong Zhu Jing.
"Mother, Yingying married a lot before, and you and Jiuniang also subsidized her, why do you still have so many mansions and silver money at home?"
Zhu Jing, who looked down at the booklet, looked startled by his own property, and his brows were even a little twisted at this time. And when he saw the boss, daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law, and son-in-law, no one cared about these, they were all saying their own words, and even Zhu Er was pulled aside by Zhu Ying and Zhang Shou, he suddenly felt that his fuss was a little lost in his father's majesty.
But before he could cough and put himself on the shelf of being a father again, his wife Jiuniang on the side directly stabbed him casually: "You are a busy man with all kinds of opportunities, how can you have the time to manage how many family businesses you have in the family, and how much money can you manage to provide for the expenses of the whole family." If there was no mother, the family would have drunk the northwest wind a long time ago. ”
"Humph!"
Zhu Jing finally couldn't maintain that face anymore, snorted coldly and angrily gave the list in hand to Jiu Niang, and then said in a tone of non-relenting: "You can do it, it's just some things outside the body such as some farm house money, and it doesn't hurt to give them more points." ”
Seeing that Zhu Jing strode out impatiently after saying this, Weinan Bo Zhang Kang suddenly laughed, and then deliberately said seriously: "If this is placed outside, just how much is each grange and each house worth, then there is still a lot of noise, the Zhu family is good, and the master of the family will not look back and leave." Anyway, that's it, Mrs. Speak, and we'll listen. ”
So, Zhu Er heard that such and such a grange, such and such a house, and such and such a store were assigned to his head, all of which he had never thought about before, let alone expected to be distributed to him...... And in the end, giving him 50,000 yuan in cash made him directly shocked, and then he finally understood why his father questioned it, and then he was even more embarrassed and walked away.
If he gets one share, the total number of shares in the family is four, which is a full 200,000 yuan in cash, maybe the bill of exchange will be smashed in a certain bank, and that bank will be directly squeezed into bankruptcy. And what Mrs. Tai said the next moment, Zhu Er gasped even more when he heard it, and he didn't dare to say a word again.
"As for those gold and silver jewelry, I didn't put it on the book, and the two granddaughters-in-law and Yingying each had a copy, probably one person and one box, as for the value, I didn't look at it carefully, they were all shared, and I thought that the family also had a thousand children."
