Chapter 90
Uncle Chen asked slowly, word by word: "Your eldest brother said that the family should be divided according to each family, are you willing?" However, you don't have any children, and your family is the thinnest, so I don't think you can divide it much even if it is divided according to the head. ”
Siping pursed his lips, but he didn't look back at Chunniu, so he nodded heavily. After nodding in agreement, Siping turned around and walked to Chunniu's side, pulled Chunniu's arm over again, pulled her to take a few steps in front of Uncle Chen, and pointed at Chunniu "Ahhh
Everyone was stunned, and even Siping's eldest brother didn't understand Siping's meaning.
But then, Siping pulled Chunniu to the side, then pointed to the house, waved his hand to everyone, and then pulled Chunniu.
Su Jinyao was also stunned, but then she understood what Siping meant, and asked tentatively: "Siping, what do you mean, you are going to be with Chunniu, and you don't care about anything at home?" ”
Seeing Su Jinyao's mouth, Siping tightened Chunniu, and then nodded. It seems that Su Jinyao guessed correctly.
Siping said this, and the three brothers and sisters-in-law secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Uncle Chen also nodded and said, "There is affection and righteousness." ”
But Su Jinyao felt that Siping had nothing to say to Chunniu, but these two people didn't want to think about how to live in the future?
Fortunately, Siping's eldest brother said again: "Although my Siping said so, I, as an elder brother, can't count his share." Although he hasn't contributed much at home, after all, he is a compatriot, and we can't ignore him when we split up. I just think that the silver should give Siping more points, after all, they are also the most short of silver now. ”
Siping's third brother also said: "Okay, the two taels of silver will be given to the Siping family, and the rest will be divided into one cent, and each of us will have a few dollars of silver enough to live for a few days." ”
Siping's second brother was also the one who spoke less before, and then thought about it and said: "My sister-in-law also said before, two acres of my family's eleven acres of land were opened up by the eldest brother and Manbao the year before last, and those two acres of land must be for the eldest brother's family." The remaining nine acres of land are really not much, I think it is about the same as one acre each for Chunniu and Si equally divided paddy fields and dry fields. The remaining seven acres of land are divided among three of our families, and one family is only a little more than two acres. ”
The four brothers of the Li family all expressed their positions, and Uncle Chen also nodded again and again on the side, saying that this was okay.
Su Jinyao listened to it, secretly calculated to herself, and also felt that this score was not bad, quite fair. It seems that Siping's three elder brothers are also quite worried about his younger brother.
Basically, the money and the land were divided, and the house was left. This time, several people looked at the sister-in-law of the Li family.
The sister-in-law of the Li family showed embarrassment at this time, and looked at everyone: "The house we live in now has a total of six rooms excluding the kitchen. Each family occupies four rooms, and the daughters of several families share one room, and the children share one room, which is exactly six rooms. It stands to reason that each family lives in its own house, but ......"
The sister-in-law of the Li family said "but", and stopped moving. The third sister-in-law asked: "Sister-in-law, it's time to split up, you can tell me if you have anything." Now everyone is saying it clearly, and it will be easy to get along in the future. If you can't figure it out, it's troublesome. ”
The sister-in-law said: "My family is seventeen years old, and I just found a matchmaker to go to Zhang's house to say goodbye, if it is settled, there will be a happy event at the end of the year." But my family is full of treasures and married, and I also have to have a happy room. You see, we have split up, but our family Manbao and I can't just marry a daughter-in-law. It stands to reason that we still have an old house, but my family Manbao is the eldest son and grandson of the Li family, so how can he live in this courtyard. I thought, can we make our family full of treasures become relatives, and the new house is here. ”
As soon as the sister-in-law finished speaking, the second brother and the third brother stopped talking. I knew that there were six rooms, one for each and two for the children. If Man Bao marries a daughter-in-law, he will have to make room for them if he wants a new house. That is to let one family have to move out.
But everyone knows that this yard is a new house, and no one has lived in the old house for several years, and now they don't know what it looks like, who wants to go?
The second sister-in-law said at this time: "I think our yard is quite big, why don't you build another one for Manbao?" My eldest daughter is going to get married in the next two years, and if we go to the old house, we will have to use money to repair the house, so how can we save the dowry. ”
When the third sister-in-law heard this, she immediately said, "Yes, let's build another room for Manbao." In addition to the two eldest ones, there are two little babies in our family, one is three years old and the other is five years old. The old locust tree in front of the old house is shady, and the little doll lives in it without seeing the sun, can the body and bones be good? No matter how you say it, it's the root of the Li family, and you can't be aggrieved in the old mansion at a young age. ”
When the sister-in-law of the Li family heard this, she sighed and said, "Isn't our yard growing vegetables?" If a large piece of land is set aside to build a house, there will be less income from selling vegetables in the future. Besides, our family only has a total of two taels and seven dollars of silver, isn't it...... Divide those two and two out to Siping. ”
Speaking of which, the eyes of the three sisters-in-law looked at Siping and Chunniu.
Su Jinyao's heart was bright, and she already understood what these three sisters-in-law meant. Even if they haven't studied it in advance, at least they have lived together for a long time, and they must have planned for this separation. Now it seems that the three of them are working together to squeeze Siping and Chunniu out.
Even if he said at the beginning that he gave the silver to Siping and Chunniu, and now they are forced to move out of this big yard, and they have to repair the house when they go out to live, it is estimated that there is not much money left.
Chunniu obviously hadn't experienced this, but at this time, when she saw that the family was looking at her, she was a little flustered, so she went to see Su Jinyao.
Uncle Chen opened his mouth at this time and asked, "Siping, Chunniu, what do you two mean?" If you want me to say, your brothers and sisters-in-law have not treated you badly, even if you are an uncle, even if you help your eldest nephew and let him marry a daughter-in-law here, can't you? ”
It seems that this Uncle Chen is also helping the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Li family.
However, this Uncle Chen was also invited by Li Da'an, the eldest brother of the Li family, and it is estimated that what he wants to say is made clear on the way, and it is strange that Uncle Chen does not help their family.
Siping couldn't hear it, so he could only look at everyone's mouth shape and guess a rough idea.
Chun Niu didn't have a backbone, she looked at Su Jinyao and looked at her, and looked at Su Jinyao to give her an idea.
Su Jinyao raised her eyebrows and thought about it, reached out and pulled the placket of Chunniu's clothes, and motioned for her to bow her head over. Since several sisters-in-law in the family are so clearly calculating Chunniu and Siping, there is no need for her to avoid anything.
Chun Niu understood, lowered her head and leaned her ears over. Su Jinyao whispered a few words to her.
Chunniu nodded, then took a step forward and said, "I understand what sister-in-law means. Several brothers and sisters-in-law really didn't embarrass us, the money was distributed to us the most, and the land was also fair, and I was willing. So we went to live in this old house, and the room we live in now will be a happy room for Manbao. ”
Hearing Chunniu say this, the sister-in-law of the Li family suddenly had a smile on her face. Hurriedly came over and took Chunniu's hand and said, "Chunniu, you are really a good daughter-in-law." It didn't embarrass the sisters-in-law at all. Although the old house has not been inhabited for a long time, the four brothers have renovated it, and the walls and beams are thick to ensure that it is strong. Go and live, and rest assured. When I turned around, my sister-in-law took my second girl to re-paste the window paper for you, and then helped you move over. ”
When the second sister-in-law and the third sister-in-law heard this, they glanced at each other and muttered a few words.
Then the second sister-in-law stood up and said, "Chunniu, since you are so generous, we can't be stingy as sisters-in-law." You can pick and choose from the guys in our kitchen. Take a bite of the cauldron, and the casserole will be yours. We can still borrow things from each other in this compound, and you have moved out, and it is inconvenient to lack anything or less, so we will take it first. ”
The third sister-in-law also followed: "Yes, yes, the house over there in the old house is not small, you can also move this set of tables and chairs in the main house." The two of you are lonely, but don't leave the house empty. ”
Listening to the words of the three sisters-in-law, Chunniu panicked for a moment, and quickly nodded: "Then thank you brother and sister-in-law." Chun Niu agreed to move out, and I definitely don't want much other than what you promised. ”
After Chunniu's words were finished, everyone in the room had smiling faces, but there was a taste of joy.
Even Uncle Chen nodded frequently, and couldn't stop saying, "This is home and everything is prosperous." Although your Li family is separated, but you are so humble and harmonious, you can be regarded as the first household in our Pingshan Village. Good thing, good thing. ”
Su Jinyao hurriedly stood up and said, "Since this is the case, then I'll write these down first." It's not that you still need a note, the same thing will be settled on the pen, so as not to go back and miss something. ”
As soon as Su Jinyao proposed, she was immediately agreed. The Li family is also illiterate, but the sister-in-law of the Li family usually has the habit of keeping accounts, although they are all bookkeeping methods that only she can understand, but there is also paper and pen at home. After Su Jinyao finished speaking, the sister-in-law went to the house and took out all the paper and pencils.
Su Jinyao took the pen and looked at it, this brush is not very good. I don't know if it's been used for a long time, or if the writing technique is wrong, the pen is forked, and I don't think I can write any good words.
Su Jinyao preferred cold weapons when she was a killer, and she also worked hard to study and practice ancient Chinese and calligraphy, and now they are all useful. Although this pen can't write beautiful small letters, it is more than enough to write a note.
Su Jinyao picked up the pen and wrote it neatly. wrote down the suggestions of several people from the Li family just now. Then he dried the ink stains and handed them to Chunniu and said, "You can show it to Grandpa Chen." ”
Holding the note written by Su Jinyao in his hand, Wang Changliang's grandfather's half-squinted eyes lit up. Then his eyes shone brightly, and he looked at Su Jinyao with a smile. Nodding and saying, "Su girl, I didn't expect you to write this word really well." ”
"Grandpa Chen praised it, this is from my mother. I'm a stupid girl, and I can't do anything else, but I'm more obedient and can sit on the bench. So I remember everything my mother taught me at the beginning. Su Jinyao was generous, so she carried her mother out, and she looked quite proud. He asked again, "Grandpa Chen, is there anything wrong with this note?" ”
"No, no, the words are good, the writing is clear, and nothing is missing." Grandpa Chen couldn't help but praise. Then he said to the brothers of the Li family: "This note is very clear, I will read it to you, if there is no problem, you brothers can sign a name or press a handprint, this is considered a separation." ”
After speaking, Uncle Chen read the handwriting written by Su Jinyao, and then looked at the brothers of the Li family.
The brothers, including Siping, shook their heads again and again, but the four brothers of the Li family couldn't write, so they went to the handprint in turn. In this way, even if the document is established, the matter of this separation can be regarded as a neat one.
The sister-in-law of the Li family felt that a stone had fallen to the ground, and the smile on her face came back, and said, "Uncle Chen, but thank you, I still bother you to run on this rainy day." Jin Yao, I didn't expect you to be able to write, and you could get praise from Uncle Chen. What happened to our family today is also thanks to Uncle Chen and Jinyao. Don't go, I'll make a few good dishes right away, and you can eat them at my house." ”
"No, I'm still going on at home. I came out in the morning and didn't go back for half a day, my dad was in a hurry. After Su Jinyao finished speaking, she made a gesture to leave.
However, before Su Jinyao took a step, she quietly glanced at Chunniu.
Chun Niu immediately understood, after all, when Su Jinyao spoke to her just now, she said two paragraphs before and after, and asked her to do it. The previous paragraph has been finished, and now that Su Jinyao's eyes are closed, it is time to talk about the back.
Chunniu hurriedly stood up again and said, "Jinyao, don't leave yet, I have one more thing here." ”
Hearing Chunniu say that there was still something to do, Su Jinyao stopped, and Uncle Chen also looked at Chunniu. Several brothers and sisters-in-law of the Li family also looked at her in surprise.
Chunniu was watched by so many people, and she couldn't let go, but she still whispered: "The family is also divided, I just remembered, our eldest sister doesn't know about the separation of the family, right?" But the eldest sister has been married for more than ten years, and I haven't seen the eldest sister once since I entered the door. Siping and I went to live in the old house, and we all paid for the broken house to be repaired and built, and we didn't bother a few brothers and sisters-in-law to help, but we were afraid that we wouldn't be able to get out of the money. However, for the two of us, we took two sets of bedding in the house with us, and left the rest for the eldest sister. After all, there are only two acres of land, and one of us goes to the field, and the other has to cook at home. There is also the kitchen things, we moved away from another stove, the big pot to take one, the casserole will be left for the eldest sister, we don't take many dishes and chopsticks, two people eat, four plates and two bowls are enough. And then there is no division of the vegetable patch in the front yard and the back yard, we can't take it away and don't want it, you can see how to divide it, right? There is also the food in the back shed, we have to bring some, not too much, just be able to eat the autumn harvest. ”
After Chunniu finished speaking, several brothers and sisters-in-law were stunned.
Yes, the Li family also has an eldest sister. They split up and studied secretly, but they really didn't calculate the eldest sister.
In general, in the family, the girl who marries out does not have to share many things. But the things left by the old man are more or less given, which can be regarded as a thought for his daughter, proving that his mother's family still thinks about her.
But the old house has been given to Siping and Chunniu, what else is left for the eldest sister?
What's more, Chun Niu brought it up first, took two sets of luggage and bedding away, and left a casserole for the kitchenware assigned to them, and gave the rest to the eldest sister; They also need a set of farm tools, which can be regarded as a share of what they deserve.
As for the eldest sister after she comes back, does she want these things, and what if she wants more? That's going to come out of the other three brothers and sisters-in-law.
This is also what Su Jinyao deliberately taught Chunniu. It is to clean up the rest of the mess after the separation, as soon as the note is implemented.
Even if the eldest sister of the Li family came back to ask for something, Chunniu's approach was over, and the eldest sister naturally wouldn't come to them to ask for something. What's more, there is really no difference between the vegetable field and the grain, Chun Niu mentioned that the vegetable field is gone, but they have to get some food to live, which is reasonable.
It's just that after Chunniu finished speaking, the Li family's sister-in-law's face changed a few times. Then he sneered, looked at Su Jinyao, and asked: "The second girl of the Su family, I usually treat you well, when you stole the eggs of your third aunt's family, your third sister-in-law wanted to kill you, or did I stand up and help intercede." Why did you end up helping Chun Niu turn around and calculate me? ”
When Su Jinyao heard this, she pretended to be innocent and said, "Aunt Li, you really wronged me, I didn't help Chun Niu at all." I asked her to take the initiative to live in the old mansion and give the house here to your family to marry. But didn't your original plan be to let Siping and Chunniu go to the old house? I reminded her not to forget the eldest sister's share, is this also wrong? If you don't discuss it clearly now, in case the eldest sister comes back and can't say clearly, does this family still count? I'm kind, too. Since I am asked to be this witness, is it not enough to make a comprehensive remark? ”
Then Su Jinyao said again: "As for the time when my third aunt wanted to kill me, I was really almost killed by her." A stick hit him on the head, and he fainted; I also broke my ribs and lay in bed for days. It turned out that the Li family's aunt interceded for me, otherwise, I guess I would really die. ”
The reason why Su Jinyao said this was also with a bit of ridicule, a bit of ridicule and disdain. The stupid girl Yao Er was beaten to death by her third sister-in-law for stealing eggs, and only Su Jinyao knew it best. But who helped Yao Er and said anything before she was beaten, Su Jinyao really didn't know.
It's just that Su Jinyao thinks that if you want to help people, you have to help to the end, standing next to you and saying a few nice words, that's not called help. If it was really as the Li family's aunt said, she interceded with the silly girl Yao'er at that time, would the silly girl still die? Su Jinyao is afraid that she won't be able to occupy this body.
