On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the ancestral hall of the mountain family in Qingshan Village was reopened, for the separation of the family proposed by Shan Erlang.

After the second uncle of the Wang family came forward, the villagers who were talking about it died down, they didn't expect that the Wang family and the Shan family would have a quarrel like that back then, and now the Wang family is willing to come to help Shan Erlang split up.

The second uncle stood beside Shan Dalang and Shan Erlang, holding his waist and holding his hands, while Du Shi was supported by Shan Saburo and Shan Chunhua, with a sad face.

Although one side is domineering and the other side is resentful, the matter of Yama Saburo and his mother Du Shi stealing and selling their granddaughter is well known, and no one sympathizes.

The village chief raised his eyelids, glanced at it, and saw that the mountain family had all arrived, and cleared his throat, "Today's ancestors are on top, Shan Erlang, the son of Shandashi, please divide the family business, his maternal uncle witnesses, and the clan elders all agree, since then, the Shandashi family has been divided into three points according to the adult male, and the family business is co-inherited." ”

After the opening remarks, Yamajiro presented the deed of division with both hands, mainly the distribution of the family property left behind after the death of his father Yama Daishi.

Now the mountain family has three sons and one daughter, and the daughter Shan Chunhua was married before she was ten years old, and lived with her mother Du after the separation.

At first, they all thought that there was no silver left in the Shan family, after all, when the lives of the couple in the second room were hanging by a thread, the Du family didn't take out much, but they didn't expect that this time the family would reveal the old bottom.

The villagers save less money, and most of them are copper plates, and those copper plates are hidden in the corners of the main house by the Du family, and they are turned out little by little by Shan Tao relying on fairy arts.

On the surface, it was with the power of the wolf cub, saying that it was turned out by the wolf's sense of smell, and if the eyes could kill, Du Shi had already glared at the wolf cub.

The copper plate was strung together, a coin was a hundred wen, dressed as a hanging, and a basket was piled up, and the village chief read according to the note: "The silver money is fifteen taels or four cents, and there are three adult men, each divided into three taels, and the remaining six taels and four coins belong to the Du family." ”

Listening to the great shrinkage of the money that he was so easy to hide, Du Shi's face was a lot gray, and he fell into the arms of Shan Chunhua with a hidden whimper.

This cash is only a little less for the second room of the big house, and it is enough for the Du family, but I don't want to be disturbed by it in the future.

After dividing the money, it was the turn of the house, and now the ancestral house where the mountain family lives is not small, because it occupies a lot of land at the end of the village, only a small number of buildings are built, and there are only four rooms that can live in people.

The big house and the two-bedroom house were built in one place, only the second room was smaller, and the two families also discussed the separation from the main house after the expansion, so they were only allocated according to the current residence, such as the thatched toilet of the house, as well as a shack for raising chickens and a well, temporarily maintaining a shared state, and then going to Yamazaburo when the expansion of the second room of the big house was completed.

Because he divided the extra room to Yama Saburo, Yamazaburo also had to take out this part of the converted silver money to divide the two rooms of the big house equally.

The last is the field, the Mu Dynasty is currently implementing the uniform field system, all adult men can be divided into 100 acres of land, but this 100 acres of land, only 20 acres of Yongye field really belong to themselves.

Yongye field can be passed down from generation to generation, and the other 80 acres of mouth field can be recovered by the imperial court after death, and it can be cultivated when it is alive, and it only needs to pay grain tax to the imperial court on time.

Although 100 acres of land sounds like a lot, the township where Qingshan Village is located is a narrow township, and because of the mountainous terrain, very few of the fields allocated to it can be cultivated, and most of them are occupied on the three mountains in the east, west and south.

The three men of the mountain family, together with the actual cultivation of the field is only a few dozen acres, each of the fields are divided in the village chief, the division of the family only needs to take their own part, to divide is the twenty acres of Yongye field left by Shan Dashi.

"The twenty acres of land left by your father are not considered uncultivated wasteland, a total of seven acres, which used to be taken care of by Da Lang, so the big house was divided into three acres, and the second room and Shan Saburo were each divided into two acres." The village chief said slowly.

In fact, not to mention the mountains and rocks left, all the land that needs to be cultivated by the mountain family is basically covered by the mountain family.

After being forced to abandon school, Yamajiro did not learn and could not do the work in the field, so Yamajiro helped him find some strength in the town to support his family.

Yamazaburo studied since he was a child, and Du was reluctant to do farm work at all.

The three men in the family had three grain taxes to pay on the combined land, so Du asked Shandalang to take his three sons to work hard day and night.

This time, Yamajiro proposed to organize the fields of the three brothers, saying that it was convenient to take care of them later, and assigned the contiguous ones to himself and Yama Daro, and those that were not contiguous and difficult to cultivate were given to Yamazaburo.

Yamazaburo, who was pinched by someone, dared not speak out in anger, and the existence also turned a blind eye to this and allowed this matter.

The money, houses, and fields were all cleaned, and all that remained was the issue of Du's offerings.

Du naturally chose to live with his own son, how dare he follow the big house or the second room, for fear of being tormented, so the big house and the second room should give filial piety to Du.

Originally, the second room had an agreement with the Du family to support him, but this time he directly cut it in half, and the Jin family also learned something, and then the second room was settled, and the Du family didn't dare to put one.

The original mountain family, the second room was muddy and self-responsible, and Du Shi and her two children rode on the head of the big house to suck blood, calling the people in the second room.

Now they are divided cleanly, and in the future, they will become three families, and they no longer need to speak as a family.

The family separation contract was divided into five parts, one for each of the Du family and the three mountain family men, and one copy was left for the village chief to be the foundation, and it also had to be reported to the government.

Holding the deed of separation, Yamajiro read it carefully and confirmed that it was correct, then handed it to Yamamo, and taught her to read it before putting it in his arms.

After thanking the village chief and the clan elders, he walked up to the second uncle and bowed deeply, "Thank you uncle for giving us a testimony regardless of his past suspicions." ”

"This is long overdue." The second uncle did not shy away from Du Shi, raised his voice and helped Shan Erlang up, "Your mother left early, and I, as an uncle, didn't take good care of you, so you listened to other people's rumors." Now that the family is divided, he has to take on the responsibility of the head of the family and take good care of Qiu Niang and Siya. ”

After telling Shan Erlang, the second uncle hugged the mountain peach again, "You are a sensible child, if you want to eat the fish made by the second uncle and grandmother in the future, let your father take you to Dahe Village to find your uncle and grandma, do you know?" ”

"Hmmm! Thank you, second uncle and grandfather. Yamamo smiled and agreed.

Regardless of the retention of the big house and the second room, the second uncle got on the ox cart back to Dahe Village, and at the beginning of the year, he had to visit relatives, and he didn't have time to stay longer.

Looking at the ox cart in the distance, Shan Dalang was still a little stunned, and muttered: "Home, this is divided?" ”

"Divided. Big brother, in the future, our big house and second room will be one heart, and the younger brother knows less about the things in the field, so I have to take care of the eldest brother. Yamanjiro retracted his gaze and solemnly hugged his fists at Yamagoro.

Looking at his younger brother, who was becoming more and more calm and sensible, Shan Dalang's eyes were slightly red, and he nodded like pounding garlic, "As long as you are willing to live well, our brothers will definitely be able to live a prosperous life." Let's go home and eat your sister-in-law's cooking! ”
