Chapter 29: Peaceful Separation

New Year's Day.

Ning Weixiang came over to pay New Year's greetings and say goodbye by the way.

At the beginning, Uncle Ning found that the situation outside was not right, and quickly called his son back to teach in the commune primary school, so that Ning Weixiang won a lot of praise and escaped the catastrophe.

Many of Ning Weixiang's colleagues have suffered, some have been driven crazy, some have broken their legs by students, and some have been framed for molesting female students and sent to the farm for reform.

At that time, he was extremely grateful for his father's wise decision.

Now Uncle Ning found that the situation outside had improved, and the country was paying more and more attention to education, so he went to the city to find an old friend to help, hoping to transfer Ning Weixiang back to the city.

Yesterday, he finally replied that he was going to teach at Mingjiang No. 1 High School.

Knowing that he was going to work as a teacher in a high school in the city, Lao Ning's family was very happy.

Grandpa Ning smiled: "Are your parents going to the city with you, or staying in the commune?" ”

Ning Weixiang said: "Come with me to the city, my father's health has been getting worse and worse in recent years, and the medical level in the city is better." ”

Grandpa Ning nodded.

Ning Weixiang happened to see Fu Bao, remembering that she asked herself about borrowing textbooks, and couldn't help asking, "Fu Bao, why don't you go to school yet?" ”

Fu Bao said honestly: "My family disagreed, saying that there was no money for me to go to school." ”

Saying this, Lao Ning's family was a little embarrassed.

Ning Weixiang also knew that the second uncle's family was not wealthy, he had several sons and many grandchildren, and it was normal not to pay attention to the education of his granddaughters.

He didn't ask any more questions, talked to Grandpa Ning for a while, and left.

In the evening.

Ning Weijia came back with Feng Liyun carrying large bags of things.

Grandma Ning, who didn't plan to give them a good look, was in a better mood.

Smile and beckon them to sit down for dinner.

In the past, it was always the daughter's big bag to come to the door, and I finally enjoyed the filial piety of my son and daughter-in-law.

But when she heard her son say that he was going to split up, the smile on her face disappeared completely.

Grandma Ning's sharp gaze swept at Feng Liyun, "Old Five, is this your idea, or your daughter-in-law's idea?" ”

Ning Weijia shrunk his neck, glanced at his daughter-in-law, and said stubbornly: "It was my idea." ”

Grandma Ning laughed angrily, "Since it's your idea, tell me why you want to split up." ”

Ning Weijia hesitated: "My father-in-law is willing to give me the job of the grain station in advance, but he requires me to divide the family and live in his house. ”

"What?" Grandpa Ning couldn't sit still, "I still have to live at his house, this is not a son-in-law." ”

Ning Weijia hurriedly shook his head and explained: "No, the child will still have my surname in the future, that is, the father-in-law and mother-in-law have no son, and I hope to keep my daughter at home to be filial." ”

Ning Weiguo was dissatisfied: "Old Five, you are not afraid of being embarrassed when you live in your father-in-law's and mother-in-law's house as a big man." ”

Ning Weijia said ashamedly: "Big brother, the official job at the grain station is rare, and it is still an iron rice bowl, much better than my current temporary job in the cinema, and I will still give my parents five yuan a month for pension." ”

Feng Liyun's expression was gloomy, and she said aggrievedly: "Parents, I know that this matter makes you embarrassed, but my uncles are all staring at my parents' work and want to pass my cousins to my parents, if the Wei family doesn't agree, they will force my parents to pass on." ”

Seeing that the old couple was a little shaken, she said again: "My parents said that after a hundred years, the house they live in now will belong to me and the Wei family." ”

Hearing this, Grandpa Ning and Grandma Ning were shocked.

The people in the old Ning family also looked at the Ning Wei family with envy.

The blue brick houses of the commune, they dare not think about it.

Ning Weihua's family of three listened carefully and did not interject.

Ning Weihua was a little surprised, he had already seen that the fifth daughter-in-law was dishonest, and he would definitely mention the separation, but he didn't expect to be so ruthless, and he directly brought the fifth daughter back to his parents' house.

This dinner, except for Ning Weihua's family of three, no one had the heart to eat it.

After all, his daughter-in-law is a regular worker in the supply and marketing cooperative, and the two of them have dozens of yuan per month, so they are willing to hand it over.

Although I am a little disappointed with the money, but the money is in the hands of my parents, and they can't touch it, and if they divide it, they feel that they have suffered a loss if they don't divide their families, and their own money is still in their own hands and managed, so as not to let others take advantage of it.

In the dead of night, the old couple sat on the kang to discuss the matter.

They can also think that the fifth daughter-in-law's family is not paying their wages, but the benefits given by the fifth daughter-in-law's family are real.

There is a world of difference between regular workers and temporary workers, one can be kicked away at any time, and the other is an iron rice bowl, and you can still get a salary when you retire in the future.

Their Lao Ning family is finally going to have a good person.

Grandpa Ning sighed and said: "The children have become a family, and they all have their own careful thoughts, and if they are tied together, I am afraid that after a long time, there will be no more kinship." ”

Grandma Ning also understands this truth, but she is a little reluctant.

Grandpa Ning comforted: "Even if we split up, we still live together, but we don't eat together, what's there to be reluctant to." ”

At dawn the next day, a large family gathered in the hall.

Grandpa Ning sat on a chair and smoked a dry cigarette, and Grandma Ning made a straight face and began to count the things at home.

The family has saved a total of more than 1,200 yuan over the years, and the old couple and their five sons divided it equally and divided it into six parts, each with 200 yuan.

As for the house, it is still lived in as it is now, and when the time comes, each family will have to build a stove.

In addition to the things in the house, other bits and pieces are also simply divided.

Fu Bao's family was given three pairs of chopsticks and two pairs of farm tools.

The chickens at home were raised by Grandma Ning, and the old couple lived with the big house, and the chickens naturally belonged to the big house.

"That's all there is to it at home, do you have any opinions?"

Although they knew that the old couple had saved more money than they could, who dared to say that they had an opinion, they shook their heads and said they had no opinion.

He also said that each son would give the old couple 300 catties of grain every year for the elderly, and they could also use money instead, and the family would be divided.

When the time comes, just find a witness to sign it.

The whole family ended up having breakfast together, and they didn't eat together from lunch.

Ning Weijia and Feng Liyun hurriedly finished breakfast and went to work.

At the dinner table, Ning Weihua suddenly said, "Big brother, can't you buy this room I live in?" ”

"What?" Ning Weiguo couldn't react a little, "Fourth, you want to sell the house?" ”

"yes." Ning Weihua nodded.

Grandma Ning was angry again, "Fourth, where do you live as a family after selling the house?" ”

Ning Weihua plucked out his ears and said casually: "Rent a house to live in first, I will have a daughter, and then marry a good family, and her mother and I will also go to live at my son-in-law's house." ”

These brazen words completely stunned Lao Ning's family.

The fifth child lives in his mother-in-law's house, after all, he has no son, and the fourth child wants to live in his son-in-law's house.
