Chapter Ninety-Nine: Make Up Your Mind
Guan Wu might as well ask Guan Wen, stunned for a moment, and hurriedly said, "Big brother, I really don't know." After a while, he snorted again and said, "Left is not enough...... It's to get money......"
Guan Wen closed his eyes, "Dad still wants to raise money for the sixth brother to show off his talents?" ”
Guan Wu naturally nodded.
Guan Wen wiped his face, sighed and asked, "Second brother, if you tell the truth to the eldest brother, do you also think that it is not good for your father and sixth brother to be like this?" ”
"Huh?" Guan Wu rubbed his hands, and said in the end: "Of course it's not good, isn't it in vain to read so many years...... After paying so many bundles of silver, he just spent money to buy a fame...... It's better not to spend money at the beginning, but now you can't still be a showman......"
Guan Wen was silent, Guan Wu picked his head, "I don't know if I'm right, I think my father and sixth brother have gone into the eyes of fame, and the eldest brother didn't borrow the money for emergency when he had an accident this time, so the sister-in-law was cheeky to go to her in-laws to borrow it...... How embarrassed are we ......"
Guan Wu said for a while and saw that Guan Wen's face was a little wrong, so he hurriedly stopped talking and said, "Big brother, are you thirsty?" I'll pour you a bowl of water to moisten your mouth. ”
Guan Wen nodded, and Guan Wu got up and went out.
Leaving Guan Wen alone in bed with his eyes closed and pondering.
He had an accident, his life was hanging by a thread, if Xin'er hadn't handled it properly, and her mother's family asked for money to buy ginseng together to renew his life, I'm afraid he would have gone to see King Yama by now.
Chunsheng's brother said that she came home and asked her father for money, but his father said that he had no money.
Brother Chunsheng said that when his father heard that Xin'er had ten taels of silver in his hand, he was immediately annoyed and put the responsibility for his accident on Xin'er, blaming her for not giving it to him when discussing the sixth brother's examination for Xiucai that night.
Brother Chunsheng also said that she was holding a declaration document signed by her father and sixth brother in her hand, proving that her father did not pay a penny at that time, but Xin'er did not show him the piece of paper.
While the daughter-in-law was busy running for him to survive, his father and sixth brother were still calculating the money, and they didn't even want to pay a penny to save him.
The chill could no longer describe how he felt at that time.
His filial father and his brother who raised him have already had a weak family affection and run counter to him.
Guan Wen stretched out his hand to cover his eyes, and it took a long time to breathe a sigh of relief, and when he opened his eyes again, he seemed to have made up his mind, with heavy emotions in his eyes, but there was a hint of relief in his eyes.
There was a sound by the door, and Guan Wen shouted: "Who?" The door is not bolted, come in. ”
The door creaked open, and unexpectedly, it was the old man who came in.
Guan Wen hurriedly called out to his grandfather, struggling to get up, but was stopped by Lao Guan: "It's good to lie down, don't move, your body is not good yet!" ”
Guan Wen immediately replied with a "belch" and asked Lao Guan to sit on the edge of the bed.
Lao Guan touched the wall and sat on the edge of the bed, first asked Guan Wen's injury, and when he learned that everything was fine, he nodded and said, "You have a great ...... of creation."
As he spoke, he pressed the bed board and slammed his mouth and said, "Your father is not authentic......
"Grandpa......"
Although the words are not complete, what Guan Wen said at the old juncture of the way of nature. It's just that he didn't expect that even his grandfather knew about these things.
The old man whimpered twice, "The door is unfortunately ......"
Guan Wen sighed and persuaded him: "Grandpa, it's okay, I'm not okay now?" Take care of yourself. ”
After thinking about it, he said: "Xin'er told me, grandpa, you took out the coffin, I remember it." ”
"Don't talk about that." Lao Guan waved his hand, muttered a little, and then said, "Your father and sixth brother are going to drag you down." It's not okay. ”
Guan Wen was slightly stunned.
The old man said, "You are all married, and you should split up." ”
Guan Wen was even more stunned for a long time before he said, "Grandpa, what are you talking about......
"Split!"
Lao Guan's rough slap slapped on the edge of the bed, and he couldn't hear what he was saying after scolding for two sentences, and then he said clearly: "I'll be the master and split up!" ”
Guan Wu happened to be at the door with water, and when he heard the last two words of Lao Guan, he was so frightened that the water shook out, and he hurriedly went into the house, and asked with a trembling mouth: "Master, grandpa...... What are you talking about! ”
Old Guan glared at Guan Wu unhappily, "Is my speech so unclear?" ”
"But ......," Guan Wu still suspected that his ears had heard it wrong, "Grandpa, what you said ...... Separation? ”
"Points! Must be divided! ”
Guan Wu was taken aback and hurriedly looked at Guan Wen.
It's just that to his surprise, his eldest brother didn't disapprove at all, but looked a little ...... Relaxed?
Guan Wu rubbed his eyes, looked at Guan Wen carefully, and found that he was really not mistaken, his eldest brother was indeed relaxed.
The old man still said: "You are the eldest son, it's not easy to mention, I'll mention it." Your father and your sixth brother are useless, and they can't compare to your daughter-in-law, we don't want them. ”
Having said that, the old man still felt that his Guan family had produced such a descendant, and he was his own son and grandson, and he was extremely cold, and tears poured out.
Guan Wenzhong patted Lao Guan's hand and didn't say a word for a long time.
The matter of separating the family is easy to propose, but it may be difficult to divide it.
Yes, Guan Wen also made up his mind to split up.
He can't live with his father and sixth brother for a lifetime, he didn't even want his life in the past, he was alone, but now that he marries his daughter-in-law, he has to be responsible. For him, the daughter-in-law fell out with her father and sixth brother, although the daughter-in-law did not say anything about the separation, but he knew, she must have thought in her heart, otherwise how can she stay at home in the future?
It's okay to divide it, Xin'er is right, it's right that he is the eldest brother, but he can't always stand in front of his younger brothers, this is not to help them, but to harm them.
The only thing to consider is Dad.
He was thinking about separating the family, and he was still thinking about how to say about the separation, so his grandfather brought it up first. That's fine, by grandpa, he won't be so difficult to do.
Guan Wu looked shocked and couldn't understand, and said with a trembling mouth: "But, it's grandpa...... You, you and Dad are still ......."
The oldest person in the family is still alive, and the next generation cannot be separated, which is a rule since ancient times. If the family is separated, others will gossip about the Guan family, and Guan Wen will bear the brunt of it. His father and grandfather are still alive and are going to make such a fuss, isn't this bullying his younger brothers?
Guan Wen said slowly: "Second brother, it's my expense, you can continue to live in the family." ”
Guan Wu couldn't understand it even more, and said in a hurry: "Big brother! You are the eldest son, how can you ......"
"I'm in charge, I can say yes!" Lao Guantou touched his gray hair and puffed out his eyes, "Ah Wen has done too many things for this family, and he almost lost his life, so it's good to divide it out, and he can live a quiet life for two days." ”
Guan Wu still shook his head, "Big brother, you can't ...... this"
So that the people in the village will gossip and look down on you!
Guan Wen waved his hand, "Second brother, you can think about it for me." ”
"It's just for the sake of the eldest brother that I think it's inappropriate!" Guan Wu hurriedly said: "If this is spread out, the eldest son will be separated from the family, and others will gossip that the eldest brother is not filial, leaving the old father and young brother and so on." Moreover, how can you start a family casually if you are in such poor health now...... Besides, this family wants to divide things and fields, and if you tell your father these things at this time, your father will definitely not agree! ”
Lao Guan slapped the edge of the bed and said angrily: "He dares not to listen to Lao Tzu's words!" ”
Guan Ming has always doted on Guan Zhicheng at home, but he is also a little afraid of Guan Wen, but as long as Lao Guan speaks, he doesn't dare to speak, and it is estimated that he has not been trained by Lao Guan when he was young.
Guan Wen exhaled quietly, and was about to say something, but saw Li Xin enter the house, saw Lao Guan was slightly stunned, and then said, "Grandpa, why did you come out?" ”
"It's not comfortable to be in the house all day."
The old man laughed happily and said, "Daughter-in-law Awen, good! ”
Lao Guantou's attitude towards Li Xin has always been good, although the two have little intersection in the Guan family, but Lao Guantou's maintenance of Li Xin is obvious. In the Guan family, Lao Guan doesn't have much presence, but he can always stand up and say something when it comes to critical times.
It's just that Li Xin sensitively feels that the spirit of the old juncture is not as good as day by day, and there are a little slight symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Specifically, his speech is a little slurred, sometimes he talks to himself, and his eyes are cloudier than before.
Listening to the praise of the old juncture, Li Xin pursed his lips and laughed, and said, "I'll take the clothes I have changed in the past few days to wash, and the weather is not bad today." ”
Guan Wen nodded, Li Xin unwrapped his baggage and took out his dirty clothes and was about to go out, but he was stopped by Guan Wu, and when he turned his head, the second brother's face was not quite right.
"Sister-in-law, you, you persuade the eldest brother...... Big brother and grandpa said ......"
Guan Wu muttered twice before he clearly expressed: "Grandpa asked the eldest brother to divide the family and go over Li Xin was stunned, turned his head to look at Guan Wen, but saw him leaning on the head of the bed and smiling softly at her. He turned his head to look at Lao Guan again, and Lao Guan nodded a few times.
"Separate, single past.
Lao Guan rubbed his slap and said to Li Xin: "Awen's daughter-in-law, listen to grandpa." ”
Dare to love the old juncture and think that Li Xin would listen to Guan Wu, so persuade him!
God knows what she wants to do the most! This is really dozing, someone handed a pillow, Li Xin was not only happy, but simply ecstatic!
It's just that at this time, she can't say that, in front of Lao Guan and Guan Wu, the scene still has to be mentioned, if she doesn't mention it, it seems that she is not filial and got up early.
Li Xin hesitated for a moment, and then said to Lao Guan: "This matter ......"
Before Li Xin could say why, Lao Guan waved his hand and shook his head first, "Don't persuade Awen's daughter-in-law, grandpa has made up his mind, and he can't change it!" ”
Li Xin was very happy in his heart, wishing that no one could change this idea, but he still turned his head to look at Guan Wen, and asked with a little caution: "What do you mean?" ”
Guan Wen pursed his lips and said with a faint smile: "I have always had to listen to what grandpa said." Grandpa said that I should divide it, so I had to divide it. ”
That's what it is...... The dust has settled?
Li Xin was still in a trance, a little unbelievable, and was about to ask something again, but the bedroom door was kicked open with a "snap", Guan Ming and Guan Zhicheng, who were blue in face, stood at the door, and next to them stood Ah Xiu, who was slightly hooked and smiling.
"Dad, what are you talking nonsense? This family can't be divided! ”
