Chapter 32: Separation
Liu Xinrui beckoned Shang Qianlan and Shang Zhengqi to sit down, and after a moment of silence, he said slowly, "Did you tell them about this?" Where do you plan to live when you move out? ”
There are very few children in Qinghe Village who are so old and have to be separated, because it is difficult to find a place to live with a family.
"I've already told them, as for the place to live, this is another thing I want to trouble Brother Liu, you are more familiar with every household in the village than me, and I have to trouble you to think about who can vacate a room for us four to live in." Shang Zhengqi had already excluded most of the people he knew last night, and the rest more or less made him a little scrupled.
Liu Xinrui agreed, let the Zhou family take the Shang family's genealogy, read it first, and then said to Shang Zhengqi, "In this way, I will go with you, and find a few more elders in the village to be a witness, and if it is decided today, I will go to the county to make a new family tree for you." ”
According to the normal rules, Shang Zhengqi had to call the rest of the Shang family if he wanted to split up, but Liu Xinrui listened to what the Shang family did to them, and he also decided that the people of the Shang family were not easy to deal with, so he decided to go directly to the Shang family.
He asked Zhou and Yu to invite Li Zheng and a few old people in the village respectively, and he went to Shang's house with Shang Zhengqi and his daughter first.
As soon as Liu Xinrui entered the door, he told Wang and Liu Huiqin about it, but before the two could speak, Shang Yuanlong limped out of the second house, shouting that he was unwilling.
"If it weren't for my father, he would have frozen to death in the mountains and fed the animals!" Shang Yuanlong said viciously, and the new scar on his face made his expression even more fierce.
Shang Qianlan looked at him quietly, she was so busy in the past two days that she didn't notice when Shang Yuanlong came back, thinking carefully, Liu Huiqin called Shang Yuanlong on the day of Liangzi's accident.
His eyes fell on Shang Yuanlong's leg, and it seemed that he was injured and couldn't work.
"You don't need to tell me this, I started working at the age of four, and at the age of six, I went up the mountain to chop wood with my father, and after my father left, I did it for the Shang family, you touch your conscience, can you do it?" Shang Zhengqi had a straight face, if he didn't remember the kindness of the Shang family, how could he be today?
Shang Yuanlong didn't expect it to be Shang Zhengqi who stood up to refute him, he was stunned for a moment, and immediately shouted, "You deserve it, is it true that my family raised you for nothing?" You just see that you are making money now, and you want to leave us behind and enjoy ourselves ourselves! ”
Before the words fell, Xu Lizheng and several old people in the village happened to enter the door and heard Shang Yuanlong's words clearly.
"What are you talking about! Zhengqi I grew up watching, Longzi, if you can do half of your eldest brother, I will give you all the head! "It was one of the old people in the village who spoke, he and the old man were brothers who grew up together, and when Zhou went to invite him, he made things clear, and he was so angry that he kept chattering on the road, and when he came in, he heard Shang Yuanlong's words, and he was about to come up on crutches to beat Shang Yuanlong, but fortunately Xu Lizheng stopped him.
Shang Yuanlong saw so many people coming, and he knew that he would suffer if he continued to make trouble, so he snorted twice and was silent.
"Since everyone has arrived, then I will say a few words." Liu Xinrui looked around, and took out the genealogy of the Shang family from his arms, "Uncle do a witness, everyone knows the situation of the Shang family, after the separation, the two families will be no longer involved, the plot, let's separate according to the head, as for the house, Zhengqi has already told me, he will move out directly, and the rest is the family's money, you two sides see how to divide it appropriately?" ”
Everyone present knew that with what Shang Zhengqi had done for the Shang family over the years, it would not be too much to take two percent more family property, but if the Wang family refused to give it, it would have to be said otherwise. They outsiders can't help, otherwise they will have an unfair reputation, and in the end, Shang Zhengqi's family will suffer.
"How? Not a single copper is theirs. Liu Huiqin pursed her lips, stretched out her hand to point at Shang Zhengqi, and then pointed at Shang Qianlan, "That day, when my mother said that the family couldn't take things from the Shang family, you all heard it, and you didn't say anything at that time, but you agreed, could it be that you want to take it away now?" ”
Shang Qianlan remembered that day, it was also Wang's words that stimulated her desire to make money, she didn't like trouble, if she didn't want the Shang family's things, she would have nothing to do with the Shang family in the future, she could not do it.
"Uncles and grandfathers, we don't want the Shang family's money and houses, as for the land, they want it if they want it for us, and we don't want it if they don't want it." Shang Qianlan saw that the faces of the people present changed, and put forward her own request, "I only need you to watch, we don't want the Shang family's things to break off with the Shang family, if anyone doesn't know how to find us in the future, don't blame me for turning his face." ”
"Qianlan, you can't talk nonsense, how can you not want it?" Xu Lizheng couldn't help but persuade her out loud, although he and several other companies could give them a few hundred wen every month, but they didn't want money or land, how could they last long with a few hundred wen?
Shang Qianlan smiled, "Uncle Xu doesn't need to persuade me. ”
Now that she has the Chen family behind her, with the four hundred and fifty taels of silver she has not withdrawn, her livelihood for a year and a half is not a problem. In the future, she will only let her family live a better life, and the things of the Shang family, she is not rare.
"Good! Don't say it, don't cry and shout for me to eat when the time comes. Wang squinted, she wanted to wait to see the day when Shang Qianlan couldn't live, according to her understanding, Dafang didn't have much money in her hands now, so she went out of the door of the Shang family to see how they lived!
Shang Qianlan didn't respond, but said to Xu Lizheng, "Please ask Uncle Xu to help me write a note, if anyone violates what he said today in the future, don't bother you, just see you in the yamen." ”
Seeing that Shang Qianlan couldn't persuade her, and the others in the big house didn't object, Xu Lizheng just went to get a pen and paper and wrote them down one by one.
Halfway through writing, the door of Shang's house was suddenly pushed open, and someone came to look at a group of people in the courtyard and said with a smile, "What happened, all the uncles came to our house, and even Brother Liu was alarmed." ”
Everyone turned their heads when they heard the voice, and the person who came was the third elder of the Shang family, Shang Yuanzhong.
"Third brother, it's just the right time for you to come back, Shang Zhengqi, a white-eyed wolf, wants to split up with us! Our father and mother have really raised him for nothing all these years! When Shang Yuanlong saw his younger brother, he suddenly had confidence and shouted loudly.
Shang Yuanzhong's face turned grim, and he walked quickly to Shang Zhengqi's side, "Big brother, do you want to split up?" ”
Facing the third brother he has always loved, Shang Zhengqi was a little speechless, and the few old people standing on the side said everything they knew with a glance.
Shang Yuanzhong heard that the green tendons on his forehead flared up, and he learned that they didn't ask for anything from the Shang family, so he grabbed Shang Yuanlong's hand and said urgently, "Then how can it be done?" If there was no eldest brother, how could the family be now? Our brotherly fate has arrived, but you still have to take what you should take. ”
The third uncle is reasonable, if the Shang family is the same as Shang Yuanzhong, she is willing to treat them as relatives, but it is a pity that the Shang family except for the old Shang who has long passed away, only the third uncle has a conscience, Shang Qianlan sighed in her heart.
"What do you mean, third? You're my own brother, and your elbow is turned out, do you want to be a white-eyed wolf too? Shang Yuanlong was so angry that he trembled all over and kept cursing Shang Yuanzhong.
Xu Lizheng also hoped that Dafang could bring something before leaving, so he stopped writing.
