Chapter 5 "Separation"
Although the village chief disagreed with Lao An's approach, after all, this was someone else's business, and he didn't want to say anything, so he had to turn his head and ask the quiet who had not said a word, "Quiet girl, now your grandmother wants to separate your two rooms, what do you think?" ”
"Village chief grandfather, uncles, aunts, uncles, aunts, you have also seen that since the death of my father, we have been driven to live in a firewood house in the backyard, and we can bear it every day when we get up early and work in the dark, we can't eat enough, we can't wear warm clothes, we can bear this. But the grandmother and the uncle and the third uncle actually wanted to sell their hearts, and even wanted to kill her, we were afraid of such days, and we had enough. Since the milk wants to divide our second room, let's divide it, the four of us sisters and brothers are together, even if we starve to death, it is better than living in fear. The words that were spoken quietly wept blood, and the voice was full of tears.
"Alas! Have you ever thought about losing the old man? Who will decide your marriage in the future? Who's going to do it? "The village chief is afraid of being quiet and young, and he doesn't think about things comprehensively. I am afraid that she has been wronged today, so she made such a decision on impulse and regretted it later. So he persuaded such a sentence.
"Grandpa, village chief, thank you for your kindness, I know that you are for the good of our children, but grandparents, uncles, and third uncles can't accommodate our brothers and sisters anymore. Rather than being disgusted together, it is better to separate as soon as possible. I am quiet with hands and feet, even if I ask for food, I will support my younger siblings. ”
Seeing that Jing Jing had such determination, the village chief no longer persuaded him, but only sighed and said, "You child, follow your father, you are a strong man." But it's also a good thing, I'm afraid that I'm going to suffer you as the eldest sister in the future. "After all, she is still an unmarried girl, no matter how sensible and capable she is, it is not easy to pull the three younger siblings at the bottom of the bar!
"Since we all agree to divide it, let's talk about how to divide it?" The village chief looked around at the group of people in Lao An's house and asked the old lady sitting on the kang.
The old lady had already calculated, and at this time, she came to the village chief as soon as she asked: "There are 30 acres of paddy fields, 20 acres of dry land, and 10 acres of sandy land. As for the money, there is not a penny. The second child is gone, and the two of us are immortal, and we still have to rely on the eldest and third to support us. Baozhu hasn't married yet, and I have to prepare a dowry for her, so I only have such a daughter, but I can't let her be wronged. As for the guys and livestock, there is only one pig, ten hens, two roosters, and four ducks, and then an old cow" glanced at everyone, and then said: "The old man is a long house, and in the future he will give us the old two mourning pots, although they are not divided now, but they must be set aside." Leave ten acres of paddy fields, ten acres of dry land, the old three families also leave ten acres of paddy fields, dry land is also ten acres, our old two have to be counted as a share, after all, we two old immortals, we have to eat to leave five acres of paddy fields, the remaining five acres of paddy fields will be left to me Baozhu as a dowry, and so on in the future our old two die, this land will be divided into big houses and three rooms. Don't say I'm biased, the ten acres of sandy land will be divided into the second room. They did not have a full-grown laborer in their family, so the cattle were not given to them, nor were the pigs given to them, and the pigs were sold at the end of the year to buy me a dowry. As for the grain they ate this year, last year's harvest was not very good, and there was not much grain in the house, so they were given a bag of bud rice, a bag of millet, a bag of sweet potatoes, and a bag of coarse noodles. After distributing these grains, the family is afraid that they will have to eat porridge all at once. ”
When the village chief and everyone heard that Mrs. An had separated their family like this, they were all angry. This person has a bias, as the saying goes, ten fingers don't grow when they stretch out. But no one has ever seen such an eccentric eye, and this heart and eye are all biased to the rib fan. After waiting for a long time, seeing that no one in Lao An's family made a sound, the village chief couldn't help but ask: "This land is so divided, what about the house?" Divide these children out and let them live? Gotta give them a house! ”
"The house in the family is not enough to live in, these boys are about to marry their daughters-in-law, where is the extra house for them? A few of them will still live in the backyard, and the house will be divided among them. ”
Mrs. An's face was not red and her breath was not panting, but everyone was shocked, they had seen eccentricity, but they had never seen such eccentricity, such a separation, this is really insightful.
Quietly sneered, and said to Mrs. An on the kang: "Grandma doesn't know how to count our second room?" Let's talk about this silver money first, my father has earned a lot of money from hunting over the years, not to mention two taels of silver. It cost more than 100 taels to build this big brick house, and there are still 30 or 40 taels left, not to mention the harvest in the field over the years, and now we are divided out, and we are not given a penny, so I also admit it. But this paddy field does not have an acre of us, and we do not have a share of the dry land, so we are only allotted it, and there is no productive sandy land. Not to mention the livestock and other things, we didn't even give us a house, and let our sister and brother live in the backyard in the leaky and leaky woody house. You want to freeze us to death, right? When my father was alive, we also lived in a blue brick house. When my father died, you drove my mother and us to the backyard, if it weren't for the cloudy and cold firewood room, my mother wouldn't have died early. Leaving us siblings behind makes you such a spoiler. If my father had known that while you had enjoyed the money he had worked so hard to earn, you had not only forced his wife to death, but now you wanted to kill his children. I don't know if he will jump out of the ground in anger to find you desperately! ”
"This family is still my decision, I'm not dead yet, how can I divide this family? I've got the final say. If you don't want it, don't ask for it. No matter how much your father earns, he will have to honor me, and don't forget, he crawled out of my intestines. ”
"Yes, my father crawled out of your intestines, and you gave him his life, but now he has given it back to you. My mother and our brothers and sisters didn't crawl out of your intestines, we don't owe you, I want to use a few acres of unproductive sand to send our sisters and brothers away, you are always dreaming! I want to get rid of us, but I don't want to give us anything, and I am in a hurry, and I will do anything. If it's a big deal, I'll burn this house down with a fire, and none of us will live there. Quiet said viciously to the people of the old An family.
Quietly carrying a kitchen knife in her hand, with red eyes, and a cannibalistic appearance, it really scared the people of Lao An's family, how did they forget? This girl is not a loser. Didn't you just fight them with a knife?
Several people glanced at each other, and it seemed that this matter had to be discussed carefully.
