Chapter 146: The Ming Family's Farce
No wonder Zhang Langzhong is nervous, if there is a coffin parked in the yard of this house, the first thing that comes to mind must be the dead person in the family, Zhang Langzhong asked, and saw Yue'er's embarrassed face, Zhang Langzhong looked at Xu Jinniang who was sitting in front of the stove and burning the fire, and the expression was also strange.
Hearing Yue'er answer, "That's Lin Xiao's donkey is dead." ”
Zhang Langzhong had heard Yue'er mention this matter, saying that Lin Gongzi regarded a donkey as more important than anything else, hearing Yue'er say this, Zhang Langzhong was speechless, but he was finally relieved.
This animal died, and a coffin was made, which was really strange, no wonder he saw that Yue'er and her mother just now had such expressions.
Zhang Langzhong opened his mouth and said, "I forgot, there is a miracle doctor on this mountain who is more powerful than me." ”
Mingyue responded, "I'm afraid this Lin Xiao is uncomfortable at this time, and besides, there is no medicine on our mountain, so I still have to trouble my godfather when the time comes." ”
There is a peaceful atmosphere in the house on this Daliang Mountain, but the old house of the Ming family at this time is a chicken flying and a dog jumping.
It is said that after Li Yue and the others left the door of Ming's house, Ming Laosan suddenly kept the village chief, saying that he wanted to split the family.
As soon as these words were raised, the old man of the Ming family and the old lady were stunned, and the old lady who was still crying forgot to continue howling, and looked at the third lady of the Ming family in disbelief.
And what made the onlookers even more unbelievable was that the baby pimple Wenqu Xing that the old couple of the Ming family had always held in the palm of their hands, the fourth child of the Ming family actually echoed, "It's okay, let's split up." ”
Only the boss didn't speak silently, because he didn't divide the family, it didn't have much to do with him, he was the boss, no accident, the two elders were with the boss.
Mrs. Ming looked at the third child, then at the fourth, and said in a trembling voice, "You, you are trying to force the old lady to death......"
A group of villagers gathered around the door to watch the excitement began to discuss, "This old couple has a good life, but they want to do it every day, and now they are finally making all the traitors and leaving, and their descendants don't want to see them and spend ...... with them."
"As soon as she got it, she cried and said that her children were not filial, and she was disrespectful to the elders as an elder, and how could she let her children be filial to her."
Listening to these voices of discussion one after another, Old Man Ming was very upset, and directly locked the group of villagers who were standing at the door watching the excitement.
But the courtyard wall of the old house of the Ming family is so high, standing a little higher outside the courtyard wall, the courtyard can be seen clearly, a little shorter on the tiptoes, or find a stone to put on the foot, you can also see the situation in the yard.
This Ming family is staging a good show of splitting up, how can the villagers be willing to leave easily, so the courtyard wall of this Ming family is full of people.
After the old man Ming closed the courtyard door, he turned around, and said to Ming Laosan and Ming Laosi with red eyes, "You really want to split up?" ”
Seeing that the third and fourth nodded without hesitation, Old Man Ming said a little weakly, "Then divide it!" ”
The old man of his own family had already agreed to split up, and the old lady Ming began to cry again, "Oh, you unfilial sons, what kind of sin have I created, I gave birth to you unfilial sons, I am not all for you......"
Ming Wenli listened to his mother's words, and smiled sarcastically in his heart, is it for them, but they just want the family to live in peace and harmony, but her mother always does so many things under the banner of them.
Mingwenli really can't understand why the second sister-in-law and their mother and son are outsiders in the eyes of their mother, and Mingyang and Mingyue are also their own grandsons and biological daughters who are connected to their mother's blood!
Although they always favor themselves and do everything for themselves, Ming Wenli is not happy at all, which is not what he wants.
At this time, Ming Wenli had already made up his mind and made a decision.
The family was finally divided, and the Liu family even said that he didn't want a new house anymore in order to no longer live with his parents-in-law, and the old house of the Ming family was divided among them.
Listening to Liu's words, Mrs. Ming stopped her distress and said dissatisfiedly, "This old mansion is so big, can you just use it for three people to live in such a big house?" ”
Ming Wenli listened to his mother's words and said, "Even if that's the case, then I will also live in this old house, and I won't want the new house." ”
One of the old ladies watching the excitement on the wall couldn't help but say with disdain, "Whatever she says is for posterity, I think she is selfish, she wants to hold everything in her hands, disgusting old woman......"
The person who spoke was none other than the old lady Liu of the old Liu Tou's family with an ox cart handlebar.
Mrs. Wang, who was standing next to Mrs. Liu, spoke up in time, "Be quiet, don't let the old woman hear, there is a place to be angry." ”
Old Man Ming spoke at the right time, "Third brother, do you think so too?" ”
Seeing that the third man nodded his head, the old man Ming made a decision, "Since you think the same way, then this old house will be distributed to you, and you will have the piece of the water well slope, the fourth child has not yet started a family, so follow us first, and then divide it out when the family is formed, the food bought has been moved by the second family, and the silver ...... As you all know, if there is no more, the next thing to be divided is the grain harvested this autumn, so let's divide it according to the head. ”
The people who watched the excitement were speechless, isn't this just the first family of the third child alone, the eldest didn't mention it, and the fourth child hasn't started a family to follow them, doesn't this mean that there is no point?
Some people are also curious that the third daughter-in-law of the Ming family said that there were 1,500 taels of silver before, why did the old man Ming say that there was no more?
Of course, there are also villagers who often pay attention to the movements of the Ming family, knowing that the last time the old lady of the Ming family went to the county seat, it was the fourth child who asked the ox cart to pull it back, and then she didn't go out for several days, so she guessed that something was probably going on in the county.
Old Lady Ming heard the words of her old man, and at this time she quickly chimed in, "Then let's divide it like this." ”
The old lady of the Liu family heard the words of the old lady, and couldn't help but complain and said, "Shameless old woman, I think she just wants to pinch the power of everyone in the family, she is selfish, and she says that it is all for the sake of future generations." ”
I have to say that Mrs. Liu can see it clearly this time, Mrs. Ming has such a mind in her heart, only by holding the power of the family in her hands, can she control everyone in the family.
Old Man Ming turned his head to look at his eldest and fourth, "Do you have any opinions?" ”
Boss Ming and Ming Wenli both shook their heads at the same time, Ming Wenli had already decided to leave in his heart, no matter how his father and mother split up, it didn't matter.
Old Mrs. Ming still had something to say, and looked at Liu Shi with gloomy eyes and said, "Although the third child is divided, he can't ignore his father and mother, and he always has to take what he should take every year." ”
Ming Laosan spoke at the right time, "Don't worry, Daddy, we will definitely take no less." ”
Listening to the words of her third child, Mrs. Ming actually took the opportunity to speak, "Then one hundred taels of silver a year." ”
As soon as the old lady said this, the villagers watching at the wall began to shout, "One hundred taels a year, is this old woman trying to force his son to death?" ”
"One hundred taels, I've never seen so much silver in my life, isn't this old woman crazy?"
The people in this courtyard are basically a little incredulous, this old lady Ming actually dares to speak, Ming Laosan frowned, but it is not easy to speak, but the Liu family will not care about his greedy mother-in-law, sneered and said, "Mother, is this planning to use filial piety to force our third family to death?" One hundred taels a year, why don't you grab it? ”
Old Man Ming suddenly spoke at this time, "One hundred taels is not much, and it will only take half a day to go up the mountain to hunt, and besides, if you have a moon girl to take you there, you can definitely earn a lot of money." ”
When everyone heard this, they all stared at Old Man Ming without blinking, if he didn't have a face to this extent, would he blush? But Old Man Ming took it for granted.
swept everyone out of the house, and is still calculating how good people are from others, how big is this face, I am afraid that it is estimated that Xu Jinniang's mother and son, who were swept away, will still remember the old love of the third uncle who is not bad to them.
Liu sneered and said, "Daddy and mother are afraid that they have forgotten, dragging their father's blessing, the moon girl has long broken off the relationship with our Ming family, and also, what does my mother want so much silver?" Take it and continue to do business with your good son-in-law? Do you have nothing left? ”
Anyway, the people of the Ming family in the village are all lost, and the Liu family doesn't care about the people on the wall, and everything that should be said and not said in the anger jumps out.
As soon as Liu's words came out, Mrs. Ming rushed up instantly, raised her hand and was about to pump Liu's face, Liu's is not Xu Jinniang, she was still beaten, and grabbed Mrs. Ming's hand, "What's the matter, is my mother angry and angry to beat someone?" ”
Mrs. Ming couldn't break free, so she had to shout at Ming Laosan on the side, "You unfilial son, don't you care if you watch your own daughter-in-law beat her mother?" ”
Ming Laosan said coldly, "Mother, it's not that you want to beat your daughter-in-law, I haven't seen your daughter-in-law beat you." ”
Liu took a step back and let go of Mrs. Ming's hand, and Mrs. Ming sat on the ground with a buttocks, and began her trick, crying, what is not filial piety, it is not the same in a string.
The brothers of the Ming family didn't make a sound, and it was useless to cry, Mrs. Ming stood up and said to Ming Laosan, "Divide the family and take one hundred taels a year, otherwise you won't divide the family, or you will leave the house." ”
Ming Laosan raised his head, and looked at his mother with bloodshot eyes, unable to believe that it was actually his own mother.
The onlookers couldn't help but say when they heard Mrs. Ming's words, "This old woman, is this going to force the Ming Laosan family to a dead end?" ”
At this time, even the old man Ming frowned, feeling that the old woman had made a little too much trouble, but there was a fluke in his heart, maybe with such a threat, the third child would not make a fuss.
At this time, no one noticed that Boss Ming left the front yard and entered the house, and when the scene was deadlocked, Boss Ming suddenly came out of the backyard with a torch.
