Chapter 257, Dividing the Family Property
"My daddy. Why are you just gone, I haven't even seen you one last time, my daddy. ”
On the day of the funeral, Liu Guangqi's two aunts also came to Liujia Village as scheduled.
The first to arrive was Liu Guangqi's aunt, and before she entered the door, she shouted. Liu Guangqi and Liu Guangxiao knelt on both sides of the coffin to guard the old man's spirit, and suddenly heard a shout from outside the door that the play was not like a play, and the song was not like a song.
Hearing this shout coldly, Liu Guangqi almost couldn't hold back his laughter, but when he thought that it didn't seem appropriate to laugh on this occasion at the moment, he suffocated it again, and almost didn't hold back Liu Guangqi's internal injuries.
"Eldest sister, our father is gone."
After hearing the movement, Liu Haizhu immediately rushed out with his two brothers, and the four sisters and brothers immediately cried when they saw each other.
Liu Guangqi also wanted to take the opportunity to see his aunt, who he had never seen since he crossed over. To be honest, I haven't seen Liu Guangqi for more than ten years, and I can't remember what the other party looks like, and I don't come back during the New Year's holidays.
If it weren't for the death of the old man this time, Liu Guangqi really wouldn't have seen her, and she wouldn't have come back even when Liu Guangqi was admitted to college. If you don't see each other again, maybe you will walk on the road in the future, and the two will bump into each other, and Liu Guangqi will not be able to recognize who she is.
After the four sisters and brothers hugged and cried in the courtyard for a while, Liu Haizhu brought his eldest sister into the house, and Liu Guangqi was finally able to take a good look at what his aunt looked like.
Liu Guangqi originally thought that his aunt would be a big man like the three brothers in Liu Haizhong, but he didn't expect that the little man was only 1.5 meters tall, but he couldn't even reach Lao Liu's shoulders.
He was wearing a black cotton jacket full of patches, a green turban on his head, and a cheek covered with wind and frost under the green turban, and his black and red face was full of wrinkles like knife cuts.
is only in her forties, but the whole person looks like she is sixty years old, and you can see from this face how much the aunt suffered in the old era. And the aunt's state doesn't seem to be very good, she limps when she walks, and she must be supported by someone to walk steadily.
"Auntie, auntie"
Seeing the aunt enter the house, all the juniors of the Liu family got up and said hello to the aunt.
"You're Guangqi,"
Hearing the junior's greeting, Liu Qiufen nodded at Liu Guangqi and them, and then looked at Liu Guangqi who was standing behind Liu's mother.
"It's me, auntie"
"I haven't seen him for more than ten years, and I can't recognize it. My aunt is far away, and my aunt didn't come back when you were admitted to college. Don't be angry with your aunt, this is your cousin Dongsheng. Dongsheng, this is your cousin Guangqi. The two of you are close cousins, and you will have to be close to each other in the future. ”
After receiving Liu Guangqi's affirmative reply, Liu Qiufen's tearful face showed a smile, and she dragged the young man who had been following her to greet Liu Guangqi.
"Hello cousin."
Looking at his aunt's earnest eyes, Liu Guangqi said hello to his cousin, and after chatting a few words, he returned to his position. Liu Guangqi, a relative, did not object, but Liu Qiufen's naked attitude made him a little uncomfortable. I haven't seen each other for more than ten years, and I want him to help, and no one feels comfortable with anyone.
Liu Qiufen saw that Liu Guangqi was reluctant to deal with their mother and son, and after smiling awkwardly, she dragged her son back. Anyway, her relationship with Liu Guangqi can't be broken, now that she knows that Liu Guangqi has a bright future, it would be good to contact her more in the future.
And the reason why Liu Guangqi was admitted to college and she didn't come back was not because she didn't want to come back, but because the old man didn't inform her at all, and she didn't know about it at all. If she knew, she would have to walk back, even if she left.
After she entered the village, her sisters when she was a child told her that she knew that her nephew was actually admitted to university, Liu Qiufen was immediately overjoyed, which is a great thing.
When his nephew finishes his studies, he will definitely be a cadre, and when the time comes, he will take care of his own family casually, and his family's life will be better, so he will talk to Liu Guangqi as soon as they meet, but Liu Guangqi doesn't know.
After a while, Liu Guangqi's sister-in-law also rushed back, and as soon as she entered the door, she didn't even have time to say anything to Liu Haizhu and them, so she threw herself on the old man's coffin and cried.
Liu Guangqi glanced at the sister-in-law who thought that her sister-in-law would be similar to the eldest aunt, but she didn't expect that her sister-in-law was still a big beauty, but she was a little thin, and it looked like a gust of wind could blow her down.
After the family arrived, the time for the funeral also arrived, under the auspices of the fifth master, Liu Haizhu threw the basin out of the funeral procession and set off, seven or eight middle-aged men from the same village carried the coffin and walked towards the graveyard of Liu Guangqi's family.
A big pit in the cemetery of Liu Guangqi's family has been good sooner or later, watching the old man's coffin being put into the earthen pit, the Liu family cried again, until the sealed soil was completely covered, the old man's funeral was completed.
After the funeral, the next thing to do is to divide the family property, and after entertaining the guests who helped, the Liu family sat together, saying that it was the three brothers who divided the family property, but in fact, it was mainly Liu Haizhu and Liu Haisheng who were fighting for the family property, after all, the little property left by the old man was not as much as the monthly salary of Lao Liu and Liu Guangqi. There's no need to fight for that little thing, blushing and having a thick neck, and besides, his family doesn't farm, so it's useless to ask for those hoes and baskets.
Soon the little belongings left by the old man were divided by the Liu Haizhu brothers, and there was only one thing left, that is, the house where everyone is staying now.
But Liu Haizhu felt that he was the eldest son, and the house should naturally be inherited by him, but Liu Haisheng was unwilling, thinking that it was all a son, since the second brother didn't want it, it should be half of the person. As they spoke, the two brothers quarreled, and Liu Guangqi's aunt and third aunt also quarreled.
"Why should you give it to your family, it's not enough for your family to take advantage of it, why do you want everything. The house must be half a family. If your family wants it, you can pay for it and buy our class back. ”
"What kind of money, the old man will say when he is alive, this house will be left to our family after he dies."
"You said that the old man said it, the old man really said it, why don't I know, sister-in-law, you are less there, the old man is a shield, the old man is dead, who can testify."
"The third family, you don't play tricks here, did the old man say when he was alive that whoever gave him a pension, this house will be given to whom.
Don't admit it, everyone in the village knows about it. Since the old man has been in good health for the past two years, is it not taken care of by our family, decoction and feeding medicine, serving tea and water, pouring and urine, it is not our family's Guangyi, what else do you have to say. ”
"You see your family's Guangyi, the second brother's Guangqi is not counted, the medicine that the old man eats and drinks is not Guangqi who got it back from the city, you can take everything on your family's Guangyi, if you say so, then there is still a share of Guangqi in this house."
"Okay, okay, don't quarrel, it's all a family that will hurt the harmony if they quarrel again, and it's not worth it for a house. We have something to say."
Seeing that the two families were about to fight over this house, in order not to let people outside see the joke, Liu Guangqi knocked on the table.
Hearing Liu Guangqi speak, the two families who were arguing immediately stopped. More than a dozen pairs of eyes looked at Liu Guangqi in unison.
"Guangqi, you are the most knowledgeable person in our family, how do you say this house should be divided. As long as you open your mouth, I will never say anything, even if you want to leave this house, I will not say anything. ”
Seeing Liu Guangqi speak, Liu Haizhu directly threw the problem to Liu Guangqi.
"That is, you tell me how to divide it. Third Uncle listens to you. ”
As soon as Liu Haisheng heard Liu Haizhu's words, he immediately followed suit.
"That's it, I know that both of you want this house, but this house is so big, it's not realistic to divide it into two, it's better to spend some money to buy this house back from the two of you, and this house will be regarded as the ancestral house of our Liu family in the future.
Usually whoever comes to the house is not enough guests to live can come here to live, the Chinese New Year our three families also have a place to get together, although the grandfather is gone, but we are still a family with broken bones and tendons. Uncle, I know that you may suffer a loss by doing this, so you should give me a face. ”
