Chapter 40: Leisure

The separation was settled, and everything went smoothly.

The next day, Ichiki and Erlin invited the village chief and two uncles to give a testimony so that there would be no further arguments in the future.

"Uncle Village Chief, my father asked you to go to our house, and I want to ask you for help if you have something."

The village chief was invited by Erlin, and he didn't tell the village chief directly what the matter was, but just said that he was asked to help if there was something, after all, the matter of separating the family was not very glorious.

The village chief didn't refuse when he saw Erlin's appearance, anyway, it's okay now, it doesn't matter if he goes there, as for whether he can help or not, he will wait until he hears about it.

Thinking like this, the village chief followed Erlin to Ding's house.

When the village chief arrived, the two brothers Ding Dahe and Dahai had already arrived, and Ding Dahai and they already knew what their eldest brother called them, and their emotions were not very high.

"You are also in the big river and sea?"

Seeing that the two brothers of the Ding family were here, the village chief asked with some doubts in his heart.

"The village chief is here, come and sit inside."

When Ding Dashan saw that the village chief had arrived, he invited them to sit on the stools prepared in the hall.

"Dashan, why did you call me here and ask me for help, I didn't tell me when I asked Erlin just now."

The village chief sat down and asked Ding Dashan, who was sitting above.

While he was talking, the two Ding Dahe brothers and the Zheng family, Yimu and Erlin, also came in to find a place to sit down and sit down, and they stood up.

Seeing such a big battle, the village chief vaguely understood what was going on in his heart, after all, he didn't know about the gossip in the village in the past two years, and it was unlikely.

"Alas, I won't tell you from the village chief, I'm going to divide the family for the two children, no, please come and be a witness."

At this point, Ding Dashan didn't hide it anymore, and directly told the village chief about his intention.

Seeing that things were as he thought, the village chief was still a little surprised, and then he opened his mouth to persuade him.

"Dashan, have you really decided? The two of you are still young, and it's not too late to talk about the separation in a few years. ”

Hearing the village chief say this, Yimu wanted to say something, but he couldn't help thinking about what his mother told him last night.

"Alas, I won't hide it from you from the village chief, I think you know what the village said before, and I'm also worried that the two brothers will have conflicts in the future, it's better to divide the family now, and the future will depend on their own, anyway, they are also the ones who are fathers, and they will understand me in the future."

Ding Dashan didn't want to say too much, so he simply said two sentences and didn't say anything.

"Brother and sister think the same way?"

Speaking of which, the village chief is two years older than Ding Dashan, and there is nothing wrong with calling Zheng's younger siblings.

"Well, that's what I thought too."

"Since you all agree, then I will be this witness."

Since the family has already discussed, it doesn't matter if he is the witness, the village chief thought about it and agreed.

The village chief agreed, and Ding Dashan looked at the two younger brothers on the side.

The two brothers, Ding Dahe, and Ding Dahai, looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

When Ding Dashan saw it, he looked at the Zheng family on the side, and the Zheng family nodded at him, and he slowly said what they had discussed before.

"You probably know the situation at home, there are seven acres of land at home, twelve acres of land, I discussed with your mother, three acres each of your brothers, and the remaining one acre is even if I and your mother, according to the rules, the two of us are with the boss, so when the two of us go to this acre of land, it will belong to the old family.

As for the land, it happens to be six acres for each of your brothers.

The fields at home are almost the same, and when the time comes, you brothers will divide it.

Except for the fields, the rest is grain, and all the grain in the family has been recovered, and you two brothers have one and a half.

There are also farm tools at home, Erlin will carpenter, suffer a little, give the boss a bucket or something, and give Erlin two hoes, a sickle, a pot, and five pairs of chopsticks.

Also, let Erlin's tools be taken away by Erlin, this is his ability to eat.

As for those bottles and cans, I will talk about them in private, and they are not worth much.

In addition, there are three pigs in the family, one for each of your families, and the remaining one kills half of the family for the New Year.

There are five big chickens and five small chickens in the house, and they are all divided equally, and the remaining big chicken is killed and eaten for a while.

The other is the house, the second said that he would repair another house, and when the time comes, he will give him three taels more, and the house in the family will be left to the boss.

The most important thing left is the family's silver, I think you have all the income of the family over the years, and when the time comes, the two of us will keep two taels for ourselves, and you will share the rest equally.

That's pretty much it, just keep the things in your room.

That's probably all there is to it, you don't have any opinions. ”

The people present listened, and it was indeed fair, but it was a bit of a loss for Kazuki.

Yimu has many families, and he has to support his parents, but he has as much land as Erlin's family.

"Dad, I'm okay."

After Lao Dingtou finished speaking, Yimu said sullenly, the Zhang family on the side wanted to say something, but he didn't dare to say it when he saw Yimu's appearance.

Originally, Ding Dahe wanted to say something, but since Yimu said so, they naturally didn't say anything.

But if they don't say it, it doesn't mean that Erlin doesn't say it, his relationship with his brother is still very good.

"Dad, this is unfair to the eldest brother, I won't say anything else, but the land can't be divided like this, I agree to the three acres of land, but I want four acres of that land.

The eldest brother's family has more than my family, and he has to support you and the elderly, how can there be enough land. ”

"Kazuki, what do you think?" Ding Dashan didn't say anything and asked Yimu.

"......, I'll listen to my father."

Kazuki didn't say yes or disagree.

"Okay, then listen to me, the two acres of land let out by Erlin will be collected by me and your mother, Erlin has three acres of land, four acres of land, and the rest will be divided according to what I said before.

Then ask the eldest brother of the village chief to be a witness, and it will be divided. ”

Ding Dashan looked at the village chief.

"Okay, since you're all right, so be it.

But there is one more thing, how to count the filial piety of the two of you after the mountain? ”

The village chief suddenly said this, he didn't suspect Yimu and Erlin, but since this matter is here, it is better to make it clear at once.

"Don't talk about filial piety, we followed the boss, Erlin let two acres of land come out and we both took it, and don't say anything else, they will look at filial piety themselves in the future."

Ding Dashan glanced at his wife and finally said.

The village chief thought about it and didn't say anything, Erlin, the kid, he believed that he would not treat them badly.

"In the future, as long as we have the conditions to give our father and mother one or two pieces of silver every year, we will not be less of the rest."

At this time, Wang on the side spoke.

As soon as Wang said this, everyone in the room looked at her, and Wang was a little uncomfortable, but fortunately, they quickly looked at Erlin again.

"What Chunhua said is that in the future, as long as we have the conditions to give our father and mother one or two pieces of silver every year, we will not be less of the rest."

"Okay, that's it." The village chief made a decision.

The Ding family is divided like this!

It was not too early to divide the family, leaving the village chief and the Ding brothers to eat at home, which was normal, and several people agreed.

Zheng's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law quickly cooked the meal together, and the chicken that they said was killed was also killed and stewed.

After eating, the Ding family's separation was over.
