Chapter Twenty-Three: Finally Separated
Mrs. Mu and Mu Qingnian heard Zhang Wei and Mu Feng say this, and they felt that the two of them wanted to hold on to the old Mu family and drag them down, so they wanted to split up even more!
Mrs. Mu hurriedly said: "The tree is divided into branches, the people's congress is divided, and the family is divided, and the province is troubled, and everyone is unhappy." ”
"Xiaowei, Xiaofeng, don't worry, it's not because of this that we proposed to split the family, and besides, after splitting the family, isn't it more convenient for you to eat and what you want to do?" Deng is probably the smartest in this family, and what he said is the most deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Zhang Wei said with an embarrassed face: "Alas, we really don't want to break up!" ”
Mu Feng: "But since my grandmother and uncle insist on separating the family, I, as a junior, have no choice but to agree." ”
As soon as they heard that the two of them agreed to split up, the rest of the Lao Mu family finally breathed a sigh of relief.
And Mu Yun, Mu Yu, Mu Xue, who was eavesdropping outside the door, also breathed a sigh of relief, Mu Yun probably knew the intentions of his eldest brother and sister-in-law.
However, the village chief and the other two old people have a better and better impression of Mu Feng and Zhang Wei, and feel that these two children are kind and real, they are both thousand-year-old foxes, of course they also know why the old Mu family proposed to split the family at this time, but it is not convenient for them to say too much about other people's family affairs.
Mu Feng said again: "I agree to divide the family, but I can't agree to such a division, and the two acres of paddy fields that are left undivided, will they not be divided now, and they will be divided later, or will you divide them in the future, and not give them to us?" There are still paddy fields that are not divided, so how will the grain produced in the future be calculated? These are also things that need to be explained now. ”
The village chief said, "Yes, how do you count this?" Paddy fields are not divided, whose harvest is counted? And who will plant it? Could it be that Mrs. Mu, you plan to grow it yourself? I think that since you want to divide, you have to be decisive and clear. ”
"Of course it's mine!" Mrs. Mu said, "I also want to have something to rely on." ”
Mu Feng said again: "Under normal circumstances, two acres of paddy fields can harvest 400 catties of grain every year, and you and my grandfather can't eat half a catty a day!" There is also the filial piety of the second and third uncles every month, so much food ......"
At present, everyone's food consumption has not reached five taels a day per capita, and the Mu family is all good, and many people in the village can't even reach this amount.
Zhang Wei: "Could it be that we are bullied because our parents are gone!" ”
Bullying fatherless and motherless sons and nephews, that is, unkindness and unrighteousness, and no moral love, if this is spread, Mu Qingnian and Mu Xiong will not think about scientific research.
As soon as Zhang Wei's words came out, everyone in the Mu family was scared!
I wanted to take advantage, but I was pinched by Mu Feng and Zhang Wei every time, this feeling was ...... That's bad! Very depressed, very aggrieved!
Deng Shi exploded in an instant: "Zhang Wei, you speak to me to pay attention, how can we bully you?" You are talking nonsense, do you not want my little male to study and take the imperial examination? Why are you so bad-eyed? ”
Mu Qingnian was also furious: "Where are we sorry for you, if you want to ruin our reputation like this, what good will it do you if we don't take the imperial examination?" ”
Fan: "Do you think that Mu Feng is disabled and can't take the exam, and everyone in the family has to be unlucky?" ”
When the village chief heard this, he hurriedly reprimanded: "Fan, what are you talking nonsense? ”
For a showman, how important the hand is, everyone knows, even if everyone knows that Mu Feng's hand is crippled, but the big guys are mostly sympathetic and regretful, like Fan's who is dedicated to stabbing knives in the heart, she is the only one, the village chief has always liked Mu Feng, the descendant, and when he heard Fan say this, he was naturally very unhappy.
Mu Qingnian glared at the Fan family and said, "The girl can't speak, don't be like him." Then he apologized to Mu Feng, "Xiaofeng, don't be like your third aunt, she is not sensible and can't speak, I want to take the hospital exam next year, and the cost will definitely not be less, so ......"
When Deng Shi heard this, he hurriedly said: "Yes, your younger brother Xiaoxiong will also have to take the county examination in April next year, and studying is the most expensive, so your grandmother is so divided, Xiaoxiong is out, you can also get clean, right?" ”
"Of course I hope that Xiaoxiong can be successful, but I can also send my younger brother to study, Mu Yun is fourteen years old, Mu Yu is eight years old, they can all study, there is no reason why my own brother doesn't count on it, go and count on my cousin! I just say that I either don't divide the family, or average the score, even if I can't take the scientific exam, I still have two younger brothers. ”
Fan sneered sarcastically: "Just like you, you still send them to study, don't be funny." ”
When the village chief heard this, he said: "Xiaofeng is right, they are all Mu family, you can't favor one over the other, and Xiaofeng is married, and the family will increase the population next year, and Xiaoyun has also reached the age of saying goodbye, your family, if you want to divide, you have to be fair." ”
Second Uncle Mu, who came to testify, said: "Lin family, if you have to divide the family, the land, grain, and money in the family must be divided equally, and you can't hide the two acres of paddy fields. Either this family is not divided, and if it is divided, it will be thorough and fair. ”
Mu Feng said: "Actually, I really don't want to separate the family, it's good for the family to be together, and support each other......"
"Dream your big spring and autumn dreams!" Mrs. Mu suddenly became angry and yelled at Mu Feng, completely forgetting that Mu Feng had her share of the handle.
Mu Qingnian also said word by word: "Home, it must be divided!" "He doesn't want Mu Feng's family to stain himself!
Mu Feng still looked light-hearted, he said unhurriedly: "Look at you like this, you are determined to divide our family, since this is the case, I won't say more, but now the house where Mu Chunfang and Mu Qing live was built by my father and mother, and the house must be returned to me, and the two rooms we live in now also have to belong to us, we can not want the paddy field, and the land can only be divided into six acres, but we will not be responsible for providing for the elderly in the future, you can't ask us for things on the charge of unfilial piety. In addition, the food in the family must be divided evenly according to the head, as well as the average distribution of the utensils in the house, and the silver, I don't want much else, I only need the silver that I have come for a year and a half. ”
"Where is the money in the house?" As soon as Mrs. Mu heard that Mu Feng wanted so much silver, a year and a half of silver in Mi Mi was almost five and a half taels of silver, of course she was reluctant, and now she learned that Mu Yun and Mu Yu were going to study, so she knew that Mu Feng would not use that incident as a threat, otherwise even if the family was separated, Mu Yun and Mu Yu would not want to participate in the imperial examination, and Mu Xue would not be able to find her in-law in the future, so she was a lot more hardened.
"With so many mouths to eat at home, how can there be money?" Tang Thi Dao.
Mrs. Mu: "At most, I will give these two months of rice silver, and the previous ones have long been used up, but there is no more!" ”
Zhang Wei said: "This is not good, there is no difference, then there is no division, no division!" We don't want to divide it anyway. ”
"It's all said and done, how can you not divide it?" The Fan family was in a hurry, she was really worried that Mu Feng's family would drag them down in the future.
Mrs. Mu's eyes rolled and she said, "Okay, I'll give it!" ”
The Deng family, Mu Qingnian and the Fan family were in a hurry, they didn't think about giving Mu Feng a penny: "Mother......"
Mrs. Mu ignored it and continued: "There is indeed no money at home, but for the sake of your injury, I will lend it to you, but no matter what happens in the future, you can't borrow money again." ”
In the past, Mrs. Mu was not worried, but now Zhang Wei and Mu Feng's temper, if they come to the door every day to fight the autumn breeze, how can they stand it? That's why Mrs. Mu made such a request.
When Mu Feng and Zhang Wei heard this, they actually couldn't ask for it in their hearts, but they pretended to be angry and said, "Grandma, does this mean that she wants to break off her relationship with us?" ”
The village chief and two old men who came to testify were also shocked, if they want to say that they have broken up, they are also relatives, how can they say that they are not allowed to borrow money? Whether or not there is borrowing is another matter, but now on the bright side, it does mean that there is a bit of a break in contact.
Mrs. Mu wanted to break off her relationship, but she couldn't admit it, so she stiffened her neck and said: "Since Zhang Wei entered the door, Mu Yun Mu Yu and Mu Xue have not done any work in the past few days, if you are so lazy to eat every day, you don't have to eat, we come here every day, what can we do?" I'm here to stimulate you and get you to work! ”
Zhang Wei began to admire Mrs. Mu, look at this excuse, tsk...... Obviously, she was afraid that Mu Feng, who was crippled, would rely on them in the future, but as soon as she said this, even the village chief and the two witnesses couldn't say that she was mean and ruthless.
Mu Feng said again: "That's okay......"
"Xiaofeng ......" The village chief heard Mu Feng agree, and immediately became anxious, "Your hand?" ...... later"
"Thank you for the love of the village chief and grandfather, as juniors, we can't always disobey the will of our elders."
"But ......"
Mrs. Mu said repeatedly: "Xiaofeng has no opinion, then it's decided!" ”
Mu Qingnian: "That's right, Uncle Village Chief, it's so decided!" ”
"But...... None of them are allowed to come to us for money or anything under any name! In the future, they will not interfere with each other! In addition, the separation agreement must state that the proposal was made by the step-grandmother. ”
Zhang Wei wanted to laugh, the Mu family thought that they had thrown off many oil bottles, but they didn't know ...... Hahaha...
Then, the family was divided like this, and the village chief and the two witnesses felt sorry in their hearts, but all the parties involved in the Mu family were smiling and happy.
