Chapter 6 "The Severance of Relations"
Everyone in Lao An's family understands that even if the second room is divided, it is also the people of their Lao An family, if they really don't give them something, the quietness of the second room will not stop. But if it is really distributed to them, not to mention that the old lady is unwilling, even Li Guizhi and Zhang Cuihua are not happy.
So Zhang Cuihua and Li Guizhi glanced at each other, stepped forward to help the old lady off the kang, and the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law turned into the inner room.
As soon as he entered the room, Li Guizhi couldn't help but speak: "Mother, what's the matter?" Do you really want to give the land and the house to those wolf cubs? ”
Zhang Cuihua also said anxiously: "Yes, mother, this house and land will be left to An Jin, Anyin, and An Bao in the future, if they let them share it, your three grandsons will not have to suffer poverty in the future." You'll have to figure it out. ”
Seeing that the two daughters-in-law were panicked and had no idea, Mrs. An snorted coldly, "Hmph!" Dead girl, like her dead ghost girl, is hated, and wants to pick things out of my hands, she will be cut a thousand times. Think beautifully! annoyed me, so I let out this old face and crossed out their second room from the family tree of Lao An's family. Still want to divide things? Then I will let them go out of the house. ”
Although Mrs. Ann said this, she did not intend to do so. But the speaker has no intention, the listener has a heart, Li Guizhi and Zhang Cuihua glanced at each other, and they both saw joy in each other's eyes. Yes, why didn't they think that if the second room was completely crossed off the family tree, it would not be a family, since it was not a family, what else should they be given to them? Even the broken firewood house and sand don't need to be given to them. And if they can't eat in the future, they don't care. At that time, no one else will gossip about them, after all, they and those cubs are two families at that time. In this way, it is really a lot of money.
Thinking of this, the two of them hurriedly lobbied the old lady to come.
The old lady didn't want the second room, and she didn't look down on these children. Especially quiet today also moved the knife, which made her feel that she was offended by majesty, and now the two daughters-in-law took turns to lobby, she didn't want to, so she agreed.
After making up their minds, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law came to the hall from the inside.
My old lady was helped by the two daughters-in-law to sit on the edge of the kang, and said to the village chief sitting on the bench and the quiet standing on the floor of the house: "Since this girl is not satisfied with my share, then I have no choice, I have to make more plans for the three descendants of the family." After all, the prosperity of this old An family depends on these three grandsons. If you agree to divide it like this, you will still be a member of the old An family, even if you divide it, if there is someone who is difficult to recruit in the future, I will also call the shots, so that the old family and the old three families will help more. But if you don't agree, then I can only divide your second family from the family tree. It's really that far, but it's a real family, even a grain of rice and a straw stick, and you can't catch it. ”
Jing Jing smiled angrily: "Okay, good, good, you actually persecuted a few of us orphans like this, don't want such relatives!" With that, he turned around and bowed deeply to the village chief who was sitting on the bench. He choked up and said, "Grandpa the village chief, please write a paperwork." Houses and fields, money, family goods, livestock and poultry, the four of us sisters and brothers don't want anything, all of this is regarded as my father to repay the grandparents' nurturing grace, from then on, my quiet sister and brother and the old An family are strangers, eternal life and eternity have nothing to do with it! Today, I was forced to make this document, the sky is thick, and the village elders and villagers learn from it. ”
The village chief had no choice but to write this letter of severance. The documents were given in duplicate, one to Mrs. Ann and one to Quiet. The village chief glanced at the happy An family's big house and An's third room, shook his head, and turned around and walked out of the house with his hands behind his back. Yo he, looking at the lively folks outside, walked home.
The paperwork was made, and from then on they were two families. Quietly took the paperwork, folded it and put it in her arms, turned around, and stretched out her hand to the old lady on the kang: "Since it is two families, please return my mother's things to me." These things are not from the An family, nor are they earned by my father, but brought by my mother, if the old lady forgets what they are? I can give you a reminder, a pair of silver bracelets, a pair of gold stud earrings, and a silver hairpin, these things are the thoughts of my mother for our sisters and brothers. Please return it to the old lady. These things were carried by her mother Sun when she married his father, and later they were all looted by the old lady one by one.
Mrs. An was originally happy in her heart, after all, she didn't have to care about their life or death in the future, but at this time, when she heard Quiet mention Sun's dowry jewelry, she pulled a face, and immediately exploded: "No, no..."
"The old lady can think about it, and then say, if I can't get this thing today, I will go to the yamen tomorrow to complain. The first article sues Li Guizhi and the old lady for selling their young daughters to match **, and the second article sues the old lady and the third room of the big house for not supporting the orphans left behind by the second room, expelling them from the house and leaving them to fend for themselves. "Quietly know, in the country of Daliang, there is a clear law that it is not allowed to buy and sell living people, not to swallow the dowry of daughters-in-law, and not to abandon orphans left by adopted brothers or children.
"You have been stabbed a thousand times, you dare to threaten me. What about the lawsuit? You... Don't you dare? Mrs. An was a little frightened by the quiet words, and she also knew these clear laws. It's just that the people don't hold officials accountable, and as long as no one reports it, the officials won't take care of it. But if this unscrupulous person really goes to sue the yamen, then they will have to suffer a lawsuit!
"There's nothing you dare, you can't live anymore, you force me urgently, and I dare to kill someone. Didn't the old lady see it all just now? For Mrs. An's words, she smiled quietly, but in the eyes of Mrs. An and others, the smile was so infiltrating.
Old Mrs. An remembered the fierce appearance of Quiet Knife, gasped, and didn't dare to look at Quiet again. I just want to get this evil star out of sight as soon as possible. Twisted to the ground and walked inside on tiptoe. When he returned, he had a small cloth bag in his hand. "Here, it's your mother's stuff, it's all here. In the future, don't say that I've found it, grab the things and leave quickly. Since it doesn't matter anymore, let's pour out the house as soon as possible, I'm still in a hurry to use it. ”
What can be the use of a broken wood shed? It's not that she begged for her mother's jewelry, which made the old lady angry. That's why I want to kick them out as soon as possible.
Jing Jing took the cloth bag, opened it and looked at it, saw that everything was there, and wrapped it in his arms.
Only then did he say to the old lady who was not looking at her well: "Don't worry, old lady, we will move out early tomorrow morning." We don't want to live in this wolf's den for a day. With that, he turned around and walked out of the house and into the backyard. Leaving behind the people in the room who gritted their teeth in anger.
