And thought in his heart: "This old man Tang said that he had an epiphany, how could he have such a complete epiphany, even Li's mind guessed seventy-seven-eighty-eight." ”

Mrs. Tang muttered unwillingly: "Who said that my son can't take me as an official old lady." ”

And the Li family, who was standing below, hurriedly stood up to show his loyalty: "Mother, don't get me wrong, if this Yaorong is the champion in the examination, the first thing we will do is to take you two elders first." ”

Mrs. Tang was unusually moved, and touched Old Man Tang: "Old man, did you hear it, the eldest daughter-in-law said so, otherwise, forget about it, it's still the same as before!" ”

Old Man Tang glared: "You forgot what we said before, you have already promised me, and now you regret it again, if you interrupt again, you will go back to your mother's house, and never come back." ”

When Mrs. Tang heard that Old Man Tang dared to threaten her, she just wanted to get angry, but when she saw Old Man Tang's extremely serious eyes, she put out all the anger again.

And thought in his heart: "Forget it, this old man has let himself for the rest of his life, and he let him this time, what is it?" ”

"Li, don't say more, you will take good care of Yaorong in the future, and strive to let Yaorong get admitted as soon as possible.

When Yaorong is admitted to the top prize in the future, you won't have to pick up the two of us, let alone pick up a few of their brothers.

If Yaorong had that ability, he would have come to help them from time to time, for you owe them this.

But from now on, their brothers will no longer contribute anything to you, give anything. ”

"Dad, what does that mean?" Tang Yaorong couldn't help but ask Old Man Tang, today's Old Man Tang is too abnormal, and the abnormality makes him feel uneasy.

Old Man Tang shook his head: "It's not interesting, Yaorong, I called a few of your brothers over today, there are two things to say, didn't I just say it,

The first thing I just told you about, and then I'm talking about the second thing, and we're going to divide this house from today.

In the future, each of your small families will work harder and harder, and as for how far you can go, it will depend on your respective creations. ”

"Dad, you're going to split up." Tang Yaorong, Li, Tang Yaozu and Xu in the room, mainly speaking.

Old Man Tang nodded affirmatively: "Yes, in the future, this family, you will each have your own way, the diligent people will be more diligent, and give your little family more property.

If you are lazy people, if you do not change and continue to be lazy, I am afraid that you will be poor in the future, and there will be nothing I can do to help you. ”

"Dad, didn't you agree to the separation before? Why do you suddenly remember to split up now, is someone forcing you, you tell me, I'll go to him to settle accounts. The honest Tang Yaozu stood up like a tendon, looked at Old Man Tang and said.

Old Man Tang looked at this honest son with satisfaction: "Second brother, I'm fine, don't worry, the reason why I want to split up is because I want to open it, and I have an epiphany, the family is tied together like this, some are hard, some are not hard, so it can't be condensed into a rope,

Since it can't be condensed into a rope, it is better to spread the rope and pass it separately, maybe each of you can twist it into a small hemp rope, which is not bad. ”

"Dad, how are you going to divide this family, and also, after this separation, what will you two elders do?" Tang Yaozu didn't want to split up.

He is used to living such a life, although sometimes he will not have enough to eat and will be angry, but he is afraid that after the separation, he will not even be as good as now.

"This grain is about to be harvested, and after we have finished harvesting this year, we will each plant our own land, which is the same as that of the old four families before.

As for the grain, each family will give you enough food to eat, and the rest will be exchanged for money, and each family will give you two taels of silver, and in the end, I and your mother will keep the surplus.

Of course, we don't spend it all in a waste, we will save all this money and wait until the beginning of spring next year for your children to go to school. ”

Tang Yaozu roared anxiously and said, "What should you do when your father and mother eat?" Don't you want to be served? You have to open your own stove, Daddy, you are so old. ”

Old Man Tang said disapprerovingly: "Your mother and I can still move now, and when we can't move, you can take turns to bring us food every month." ”

After hesitating, Tang Yaozu still said his ultimate goal: "But I think it's better for us not to break up." ”

But what Tang Yaozu didn't expect was that this time the old man Tang was determined to split the family, so he didn't follow Tang Yaozu's wishes: "Yaozu, don't think about it anymore, this family is divided today, and it is also divided, and it is not divided, and it is also scored.

From now on, you will be your own independent family, and you can spend the money you earn by yourself, and don't hand it over to us again. ”

After Old Man Tang finished speaking, he turned to the Liu family again and said to the Xu family: "Xu, I know that it is not fair for you to divide the family at this time, but you can also rest assured, your mother and I will not lose you.

The money for the medicine that Yaoren and Goro needed for their injuries, as well as the nutritional money that needs to be supplemented for them every day, you can roughly convert it into money, and let your mother give it to you in two days. ”

"Dad, I see." Xu called Old Man Tang sincerely.

"Xu, Yaoren, although your father and mother will give you the medicine money, but the two of you can't be like before, one is lazy and lazy, and the other is stealing chickens and touching dogs.

If you don't have a good time in the future because of your laziness, don't come to your father and mother, because we won't help you.

After this separation, your mother and I will not have any family background, and even the money for the dolls to go to school in the family will depend on me and your mother to slowly accumulate. ”

Xu nodded: "Dad, don't worry, the daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law are not the same as before, when Gorou and Yaorong are better, I will go outside to find a job, and I will not give this family away." ”

"Since you say so, then I am relieved, there is nothing else, if any of you still have something to say, say it now,

Wait until tomorrow I will go to you and draft a few documents, and then give them to each of you to sign, and then go to the yamen to back up, and after tomorrow, the house will be completely divided. ”

Li Shi cautiously looked at Old Man Tang's face and said: "Dad, the money for Yaorong to go to the capital for the exam is not completely ready, and it is still a lot short, you can see if you can give us more when you divide the family." ”

Old Man Tang refused the Li family without thinking about it: "No, each family is divided into two taels of silver, and there are also grain and land, all of which are the same size and weight, Dad will not change this time because your family is the boss and Yaorong is a lifter,

I've been biased with you for so many years, and I can't continue to be biased now, otherwise after a hundred years, I won't be able to go back to see the ancestors of the Tang family, and at the same time, I will be ashamed of them. ”

Li Shi was dissatisfied with Old Man Tang: "Dad, you said before that you are responsible for finding a way to pay for Yaorong's exam, but now you haven't thought about it, you have to split up.

But none of us thought that you would suddenly want to divide the family, and it is good to say that you have given us more silver in this separation, but it is only two taels of silver, which is still a lot worse than our entanglement.

And so many entanglements, you don't help us, we don't know where to go for a while,

Seeing that Yaorong is about to get up and go to the capital in half a month, even if we let us make money in a down-to-earth manner, there is no way! ”

When Old Man Tang thought of his eldest son who had high hopes, he couldn't help but be a little soft-hearted, soft-hearted, and blurted out some words: "You say, how much silver are you missing." ”

Li Shi thought about it in his heart, and opened his mouth and said: "We need a total of one hundred taels of silver, and we have only enough fifty taels, and there are still fifty taels of silver."

As long as my father and mother find a way to make up the fifty taels of silver for us, then we have no opinion on whether the family is divided or not. ”

"Fifty taels of silver, are you robbing or robbing? If our family had so much silver, would we still have a hard time every day?

If our family had so much silver, old woman, wouldn't we give them some meat at every meal? Mrs. Tang almost pointed to Li's nose and spoke.

"What then? Without fifty taels of silver, Yaorong had no way to go to the capital to catch the exam, so all the previous efforts would be in vain. "The Li family tried to threaten Old Man Tang and Old Lady Tang with Tang Yaorong's future, so that these two people would compromise.

As soon as Mrs. Tang thought that her son might blame herself in the future, her mind became active again.

But as soon as I thought about it, I thought of the heart-wrenching words that Old Man Tang had told her in the middle of the night last night, as well as the analysis of each of their rooms and each person's future, so I stopped thinking about it again.

"I don't have any money, let alone fifty taels, not even five taels, I originally told you that two taels of silver is two taels of silver, and there is no more than a cent." After Mrs. Tang finished speaking, she climbed onto the kang and went to take care of her third son, who had opened his eyes and did not speak.

It was these three sons, it was his sudden accident yesterday that made her and her wife see their situation clearly, as well as the selfishness of Tang Yaorong and his family, so they made this move, which will not change no matter what.

They do this not only for the sake of the people in the other houses, but also for the good of their old couple.

Although the old couple also stood by and watched, Mrs. Tang didn't think that she and Old Man Tang had done wrong.
