Chapter 89
Su Jinyao listened and knew that the Li family also had difficulties. But she also had to take care of Chunniu's matter, so she nodded, which was considered to be a promise to Chunniu. It doesn't matter if you pay back the money later, as long as Chunniu has a conscience, Su Jinyao won't care when the money will be repaid.
But Chunniu repeatedly assured that Su Jinyao also agreed, but the Li family's aunt still refused to nod.
Chunniu had to pounce over, hugging her sister-in-law's legs and crying: "Sister-in-law, what do you say, I will listen to you." I really want to be with Siping, I married someone from the Li family, and I was a person from Siping. I'm not going. ”
"Chunniu......" The sister-in-law sighed, pulled Chunniu up and said, "Don't cry, I also know that if this thing forces you again, it will force you to a dead end." After all, we still ate in the same pot, and I can't bear it. Or else...... Separation. ”
After saying the separation, the second sister-in-law and the third aunt were stunned for a moment, but they seemed to have a plan in their hearts, so they didn't mean to object.
Siping's eldest brother frowned and looked at his daughter-in-law, then at the two brothers, and finally didn't say anything.
Chunniu didn't react immediately and didn't know what to do. Siping didn't seem to "understand" either, so he just clenched Chunniu's hand.
Seeing that no one objected, the sister-in-law of the Li family continued: "There is nothing wrong with separating the family, we are still a family." It's the money that his family earns, and he calculates Huabei by himself. Of course, whoever has a difficult matter, or which kid or girl grows up, marries a daughter-in-law or a daughter, and they all help each other. Isn't it nice to be able to walk around a lot? ”
Instead, the Li family's aunt said to Chunniu again: "Chunniu, if you really want to live a good life with Siping, then don't always expect our brothers and sisters-in-law to support you." Siping is not small, you are also in good health, can you two big living people still starve to death? If you divide the family, you can also get a share, whether it is a field or a house, what do you want to do with it after you get it, and you can repay the debt if you sell it? ”
Hearing what her sister-in-law said, Chunniu bit her lip and stopped talking. But after looking down and thinking about it, he looked at Su Jinyao again.
It can be said that Chun Niu is an unassertive person, she is far less crisp than Su Jinyao, and even less thoughtful than Su Jinyao.
Although when she was at Chunniu's mother's house, she also said that she would split up if she couldn't do it, but this time the sister-in-law of the Li family said it, which was obviously true, but it was not just a casual thing. At this time, she naturally regarded Su Jinyao as the backbone.
Su Jinyao already understood from the word "separation" from the Li family's aunt, and the matter of Chunniu was just an introduction. It is estimated that Siping's "oil bottle" has made the brother and sister-in-law at home taboo.
So, no matter whether this is the fault of Chunniu or not, and whether Siping really has a heart for Chunniu, there is always such a thing anyway. The final goal is undoubtedly to split up.
As for the other second and third sisters-in-law, there is no objection, it is estimated that people can also maintain their own livelihoods, so why must a large family get together to live. If the money earned is always at the disposal of a family member, how unfree, who doesn't want to live a small life by themselves.
In this way, Su Jinyao's heart brightened. It's not that Chunniu is unlikable, and it's not that the Li family is so difficult, I'm afraid that someone has already had a different mind. I'm afraid that when I married Chunniu and entered the door, I had plans to split up; When the time comes, Siping will be pushed to Chunniu, how will their other three families live, and life will not be too bad.
It's a real bitter spring girl, she was clearly calculated. On the surface, she is a daughter-in-law who was bought, and she has to carry a reputation for having an outsider, but in fact, she picked up the Li family's oil bottle. Fortunately, Siping is sincere to Chunniu, otherwise Chunniu would be too pitiful.
Thinking of this, Su Jinyao felt that she had done the right thing this time. Although Chunniu can only be regarded as her friend, she is not a good "best friend" or "sister", but the Li family is so openly and secretly calculating Chunniu, how can she know and ignore it.
Before, the Li family had always said that this was their family's business, and asked Su Jinyao to leave it alone. But now Su Jinyao feels that if she doesn't stand up again, Chun Niu's life in the future will definitely be difficult. After the separation, it is difficult to say whether the things that can be divided are enough to live.
Su Jinyao saw that Chunniu was still looking at her, so she beckoned to her and asked Chunniu to come to her.
Chunniu came over with tears in her eyes and called in a low voice: "Jinyao, what should I do?" ”
Su Jinyao said: "What should I do?" Aren't you saying that? Say that you have hands and feet, and you are willing to endure hardships and be able to work. Are you still afraid that you won't be able to live if you are separated? Or do you think Siping is deaf and dumb, and you're afraid that he will drag you down? ”
Chunniu hurriedly said, "No." I know that Siping is really good to me, and I really like Siping. We can both work, and we are young, so why can't we survive? ”
"Okay, it's easy to say with you." Su Jinyao nodded and said, "I'll find a way to get together five taels of silver before the end of the month, and let you send it back to your mother's family." As for the separation, this is your Li family's business. But I don't think you have to look at other people's homes, if you have backbone, just split up. As long as you and Siping have one heart and are willing to endure hardships, you can always live a good life. ”
Hearing Su Jinyao say this, Chun Niu reacted at this time, and it seems that the separation of the family is certain. However, looking at Su Jinyao's firm eyes again, Chunniu felt inexplicably confident in her heart.
Chunniu nodded and said, "Okay, eldest brother and sister-in-law, I also agree to split up." Look at what it is, when will it be divided? After the separation, I live with Siping, you won't stop you anymore, right? ”
Siping's brothers and sisters-in-law seemed to be relieved when they heard that Chunniu agreed to split the family. The last eyes fell on the eldest brother and sister-in-law.
The sister-in-law also took a breath and said, "Okay, since Chunniu also agrees to divide the family, let's divide it while everyone is here today." Jinyao, look at you to be a witness? I've heard that you can write. Why don't you write us a note or something? ”
This matter turned to Su Jinyao again, and Su Jinyao did not shirk it. Anyway, she understands that this matter is entangled in her.
Su Jinyao smiled and said, "I can write, and I can also write notes." However, I am still young, and it does not carry enough weight to testify alone. You can see which elder is invited to testify in other people's families, so let's invite them together. There are also family properties, house deeds, and land deeds, how to liquidate? I'm good at arithmetic, so I don't need to ask the accountkeeper anymore, I can help you figure it out. ”
Hearing Su Jinyao say that she wanted to help them sort out their accounts, and also calculate the house deed and land deed, the Li family's aunt's face was not very good-looking. However, she kept pretending to be smiling just now, and it was not good to turn her face immediately at this time, so she still had to grit her teeth and smile, and said, "That's good, Jinyao, you are really smart and capable." Da'an, you invited Uncle Chen from our village to come over, and when you see other people's families splitting up, Uncle Chen testifies. ”
Siping's eldest brother answered and went out, probably to invite the uncle of the Chen family.
If Su Jinyao hadn't guessed wrong, this uncle of the Chen family should be Wang Changliang's grandfather. Pingshan Village is considered to have a face, and it is estimated that this Grandpa Chen, who has been a housekeeper for others in the city, can handle it.
After a while, Siping's eldest brother led an old man in his sixties over. The old man was wearing a robe, holding a hand behind his back, and Siping's eldest brother also held an umbrella for him, which looked a little magnificent.
Entering the house, everyone stood up, and Chun Niu shrank behind Su Jinyao again.
Su Jinyao sighed secretly, feeling that Chun Niu was really a big man for nothing, and she didn't seem to have much courage.
Uncle Chen is not tall, and his figure is neither fat nor thin. The maintenance is also very good, there are almost no deep wrinkles on the face, and a pair of eyes are particularly bright, and at first glance he is an old man with a lot of thoughts.
Uncle Chen entered the house, his eyes swept over everyone's faces one by one, and finally landed on Su Jinyao's face, and he looked at Su Jinyao for a moment.
Su Jinyao didn't look away, nor did she have the slightest intention of avoiding and dodging, so she let Wang Changliang's grandfather look at her so generously.
It's just that Su Jinyao didn't expect that this Grandpa Chen would talk to him first. asked: "The second girl of the Su family, are you also there?" You have been in the limelight these days, and we are talking about you everywhere in Pingshan Village. Why, today's Li family's affairs, you also follow the excitement? ”
The first few sentences are considered greetings, but there is nothing wrong with that. But in this last sentence, Su Jinyao said that she was watching the excitement, so she was a little ridiculed. It is estimated that he didn't take Su Jinyao in his eyes, and felt that Su Jinyao was redundant here.
Su Jinyao didn't mean to be polite, and said with a slight smile: "I'm not watching the excitement, I'm just like Grandpa Chen, to be a witness." From yesterday when the Li family's aunt told me that Chunniu had returned to her parents' house, to Siping knocking on my door early this morning, I have been entangled with the Li family. It's a coincidence, yesterday the spring girl was found by me in Lijiatun, and today the spring girl was stopped by me on the way to Lijiatun, do you say that I am watching the excitement, or can I not get rid of it? ”
Su Jinyao's meaning is obvious. Yesterday, the sister-in-law of the Li family took the initiative to come to her house and told her about Chunniu's homecoming, just to pull herself into the water. Today, Siping also pulled himself in, even if this matter has something to do with her.
Grandpa Chen is such a shrewd person, as soon as he heard Su Jinyao's words, he also understood a little. looked at the sister-in-law of the Li family, which probably meant to remind her that she had pulled the second girl of the Su family in, but she had miscalculated and couldn't shake it off.
The sister-in-law of the Li family is also having a headache, she originally wanted to borrow Su Jinyao to make a big deal about Chunniu lying and running back to her parents' house. What's more, Su Jinyao's unforgiving nature is known to the whole village, and the sister-in-law of the Li family thought that Chun Niu was using Su Jinyao as a cover this time, which was to offend Su Jinyao and she would suffer a big loss.
But she didn't expect that this Su Jinyao would not even spare her third aunt's family, but she had the heart to stand on Chunniu's side. This calculation is really wrong.
However, now that Su Jinyao is standing here, no one can send them away, so they can only split up like this.
Now the eldest sister-in-law, second sister-in-law, and third sister-in-law of the Li family are looking forward to finalizing the separation of the family as soon as possible, but they don't want to delay it any longer. In the future, each family should live their own small life, how comfortable it should be.
Since it was said that the family was going to be separated, and the witnesses also came, the sister-in-law of the Li family went back to the house and took out a small wooden box.
The sister-in-law of the Li family opened the wooden box and said while taking things out: "This is the house deed, this is the title deed." Our Li family has two properties, one is the big house we live in now, and the other is on the side of the old locust tree at the head of the village, but no one lives in it now. There is not much land, a total of 11 acres, only 4 acres of paddy fields, the remaining 7 acres of dry land and 2 acres of the year before last, my family Da'an took my family Manbao to open up along the side of the mountain. ”
Then he took out a small bag, and poured out from it a few small pieces of silver and some copper coins, and said, "There are two taels and seven coins of these pieces of silver." I used five taels for Siping's daughter-in-law before, and before that, I bought some seeds for spring planting. Our family didn't have enough seeds left last winter, which I said during the New Year, and I told you how much money it spent. The copper coins are a total of 348 Wen, all of which are the money used to sell vegetables and rice these days. And then there are the things in these rooms, furniture, cabinets, farm tools, etc., you can see for yourself. ”
After the sister-in-law of the Li family finished speaking, the second sister-in-law and the third aunt glanced at each other, and then the second sister-in-law said: "I see, are the things in each room not divided?" What each family uses is clothes, bedding or something, how can this be divided? Farm tools are easy to do, according to the field. After dividing the field equally, and then dividing the farm tools, if there is more field, it is natural to take two more pieces; If you have less land, it's useless to take more farm tools. ”
After the second sister-in-law finished speaking, the third sister-in-law thought about it, stood up and said, "The clothes and bedding are not separated, but the dishes, chopsticks and cooking utensils in the kitchen still have to be divided." Now it's a lot of money to buy an iron pot, our family has a total of two large iron pots, a small pot, and a casserole, all count. And I see that the contents of the main house are also divided, and that table and chest are newly bought. ”
After several sisters-in-law finished speaking, it stands to reason that Chun Niu should also say something. But she knew that she was newly married, and Siping was deaf and dumb, so she didn't have any right to speak. Even if she said it, it might not have much weight, and it would be annoying, so when she got to Chun Niu, she took a step back and just said, "Okay, I'll listen to a few sisters-in-law." ”
Chun Niu had no opinion, so the sister-in-law of the Li family asked Uncle Chen instead: "Uncle Chen, how should you divide these houses and fields?" I don't think it can be divided evenly among families. It should be divided according to the age of each parent's family and the number of children. After all, the older ones have contributed more to this family, and those who have more children have also spread the branches and leaves for the Li family, and there is no credit and hard work. ”
When the sister-in-law of the Li family said this, Su Jinyao sneered in her heart. Listening to this meaning, their family is the boss, so naturally they want to share more? However, Su Jinyao didn't say anything, she just looked coldly and wanted to know what the result of Chunniu and Siping could end up in the end. She didn't believe that the Li family could still leave the house with two big living people?
After listening to this, Uncle Chen did not move. After a while, he said slowly: "There are not a few people in our village who have divided their families, almost all the brothers have married daughters-in-law, and the old people in the family are no longer alive, so it is time to divide the family." It's not easy for your family to be together for so many years. In the past, it is common to witness the division of other people's families, generally there are three situations, the first is to divide according to the capitation: the whole family has one and each person can get a share, but if the child is under the age of five, he cannot be divided; Houses, fields, and furniture are also counted. Second, it is divided according to the family, this is not an equal share, see which family has more labor and usually does more work, then divide more; This needs to be discussed by several families, after all, it is still a family, and the harmony cannot be hurt because of the separation. The third is the most important division, which is to tear the face. They are all some people who don't get along well on weekdays, and those who fight and make trouble have to divide their families, that is, according to what their families are using now, whoever occupies what and what they use will belong to whom, and the remaining ancestral property and public land will be divided equally. In this way, the two families have already made a fuss, and what should be occupied has also been occupied, and it is not troublesome to divide the family, but it is necessary to set up a written note, and from now on it is enough not to pursue each other. ”
After speaking, Uncle Chen looked at everyone and asked, "Look at it, what kind of division is your family?" Or, what do you have in mind? I'm just here to be a witness, not to take care of your housework, so you have to negotiate it yourself. ”
It was the sister-in-law of the Li family who was talking all the time, but this time it was really going to be separated, so the sister-in-law quietly glanced at her man, which means that after all, this family is still in charge of him, he is the eldest brother in charge, let him say something.
The eldest brother of the Li family also stood up and said to Uncle Chen: "Uncle, you testify, I, Li Da'an, have been farming and working for the family since I was a teenager, and after my parents passed away, I have been in charge of this family for a few years, so before I want to divide the family today, I will last take charge of the matter, and I will divide it according to each family." The things used in each house are not touched, but each house is still in its own house, that is, the field is divided, the house is divided, the money is divided, and the things in the main house and the kitchen are divided, and it is all right. As for how to divide the fields and houses, of course, it depends on the labor of each family. ”
After Li Da'an finished speaking, Uncle Chen turned his head to look at his other brothers, especially at Siping. Then he beckoned to Siping: "Siping, come here, I'll ask you." ”
Siping knew that he was going to break up, so he didn't say anything, and when he saw Uncle Chen calling him, he let go of Chunniu's hand, walked a few steps, and looked at Uncle Chen fixedly.
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. ”
