In the end, the old couple left the Xia family compound and ten guan money, a donkey, nine chickens, Xia Zhu and Xia Tie each four acres of land, a pig, each a stall, grain and furniture The old couple and the big house and the second room were equally divided. Xia Shan divided thirty taels of silver, and the rest of the silver was divided equally with the three sons of Da Qian.

After the separation, Xia Tie managed the food and drink of the old couple on weekdays, and Xia Zhu and Xia Shan each paid 200 yuan per month for pension. Coupled with Xia's filial piety, the living standard of the old couple is so good that it belongs to the landlord. If there is a disease, the three sons will share it, and Xia Lanniang will also contribute, and Xia Meiniang will forget it.

Xia Laohan said to Xia Zhu and Xia Shan again, "We will leave the old couple in that compound, and we will give it to Tiezi in the future, don't blame me for being partial to the second child, it is really that family I am most worried about, and I have another son, the big bear and the three leopards are pitiful like that......"

The two brothers agreed.

When the old lady heard that she had saved so much money, she could only leave ten times in the end, and she cried like a tearful person, and she was about to faint to death.

The old man frowned and scolded, "We are already half in the ground, and we live in the countryside, we can't eat much, we can't wear much, why do we need so much money?" We have been picking all our lives, and the money can't be brought into the coffin, and we have become a joke and a villain in other people's mouths. He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's better to divide the money among our sons and grandsons while we are alive, and let them build a house and marry a daughter-in-law." In this way, not only will our children, grandchildren, and daughters-in-law think of our goodness, but the neighbors will also look up to us......"

But the old lady couldn't listen to it, and just kept crying. The old man ignored her anymore, and so on.

Today's old man is a little admirable, he was so selfish and slammed before, and he was stimulated to understand many things. It's just that she still values sons over daughters, and her son has divided so much, not to mention the Xia family, who has a good life, Xia Meiniang, who was killed so badly, only gave ten taels of silver, of which six taels were still her selling money......

After dividing the family, Xia Laohan solemnly said to Xia Zhu, Xia Shan, and Xia Shi, "Your brains are active, and you are all promising, and in the future, the big bear and the three leopards will be in trouble, you have to help them." It's best to get them out of the countryside and stay away from Lao Yang's house when they grow up. ”

The three brothers and sisters of the Xia family solemnly promised.

He took Xia Li's hand again and said, "Grandpa knows that you can do it, Zhuzi, Mei Niang and Erni don't need my advice, you will help them." However, Big Bear and Three Leopards are also good boys, and if you can, you can help them in the future. ”

Xia Li said secretly, let herself sit here and listen to it for most of the night, and the last sentence was what the old man wanted to tell her.

At this time, she couldn't drop the chain, so she had to say, "If the two brothers are fighting, I can help, and I will definitely help." ”

Early the next morning, Tian Qing rented an ox cart to see them off. Because they are going to split up, Xia Shan will also go back with them.

The old lady was still angry, she trembled when she walked, and was directly helped into the carriage by Xia.

Before Xia Zhu went out, he pulled Xia Li aside and said that he wanted to come to Fucheng to find a job. Yesterday, he thought about it for a night, and felt that the city was big, and Xia Li and Xia Shan knew more people, and they were more developed than in the countryside. Moreover, when I came here, others didn't know about my mother's affairs, and my daughter's daughter was better to say goodbye.

Xia Li welcomes Xia Zhu very much. Not only because she likes Xia Zhu, but also because he is the boss of the Xia family, and he has the respect of his younger brothers and sisters, he came, and many things were up to him, and he and Xia's mother also had peace of mind.

His own restaurant needs meat, and the military camp also needs meat, so he doesn't have to worry about Xia Zhu's business being difficult.

She smiled and said, "Okay, I'll ask someone to make a red deed for my uncle to sell meat in the yamen." When I came here, my uncle didn't need to work so hard to kill the pigs in person, just collect the pigs and sell them. ”

Xia Zhu smiled brightly and said, "Okay, I'll straighten out the house, and then take out the meat stall in the village, and come here." ”

What everyone didn't expect was that Zhao Liang and Zhao Niuniu came to see them off, and they also carried two large bags of gifts in their hands.

Zhao Liang's rhetoric is that Xia's family, Xia Li, and Xia Ju often take care of their daughters, and he specially came to thank them.

Old man Xia knew that he was Master Qianzong and the peak of Shanzi, his eyes narrowed into a slit with a smile, his attitude was extremely humble, and he couldn't help bowing down and saying, "It should be, it should be, and I ask Lord Zhao to bring my Shanzi more." "I am more satisfied with Xia and Xia Li, I think they can be people, and they know how to tie up the upper peak of Shanzi, no wonder Shanzi is promoted so quickly.

The old man made Zhao Liang blush, and quickly bowed down and said, "The old man is polite, the old man is polite." Xia is always very capable, and he doesn't need my support, and he will have a great future. ”

Xia's face was flushed, and he hid behind people and didn't dare to step forward.

Seeing the carriage gradually moving away, Zhao Liang smiled at Xia's family, Xia Li and others before going to the office.

After sending off a few members of the Xia family, the family finally calmed down. Xia went to the countryside again, she wanted to persuade Xia Meiniang to return to Zhuangzi, and also brought ten taels of silver that Xia Laohan gave to Xia Meiniang.

Xia Li finally had time to ask Tian Qing's family. I heard her say that now the neighbors are spreading that the second daughter of the old Wang family in North Hutong is shameless, and she was driven back to her parents' house by a man, and she still wants to climb high branches and marry General Zhao. How high is General Zhao's vision, how can he take a fancy to her...... When Mrs. Wang heard about it, she was so angry that she ran to quarrel with a few mothers-in-law with one arm hanging, and almost didn't fight.

He also said that the father and son of the Wang family were beaten by someone the day before yesterday, and their noses were blue and swollen, and after returning home, they beat the Wang mother-in-law and screamed......

Xia Li laughed, it should be Zhao Liang who cleaned up the man and son of the princess, and her man was so angry that he went home to clean up the bad-mouthed princess.

Hmph, looking at my own orphans and widows being so bullied, the backstage is hard.

Zhao Liang's performance was good, which also made Xia Li appreciate his open-mindedness and open-mindedness more. Although she was rejected by Xia's family, she still asked Zhao Niuniu to come to Xia's house for dinner every day as if she was fine, and often asked her to bring some things. He may be giving Xia time to figure it out......

When the Xia clan rushed back from Zhuangzi.

She said that Xia Meiniang returned to Zhuangzi under her persuasion, and also left the dowry money of six taels of silver for selling her, and the other four taels of silver no matter what. also said that General Sha handed over the work of cleaning the training ground and kennel done by the soldiers before to Xia Meiniang, saying that she did a good job and would continue to do those jobs in the future. Coupled with making a harness for Rong dogs, she has at least seven or eight hundred wen per month. Moreover, dog feces are indispensable for doing those jobs, and many villagers want that dung, and their attitude towards Xia Meiniang is much better.

Xia Meiniang was overjoyed, and said that her life suddenly rose from destitute to a middle-class household in Sanjian Village, which she had never thought of before......

Xia asked inquiringly, "Who did you ask for, General Sha to buy face like this?" ”
