Chapter 4: Separation (2)
The captain said again: "You forced your son and brother's family to dive to die, and it was spread out, what good will it do you?" What do people think of you? What do you think of our Victory Village? ”
If the matter is a big deal, the village party secretary and the team leader, the village cadres, will also be held accountable.
"Today I am in charge, split up!" After the captain finished speaking, he looked at He Daming, "Do you want to score a big score or a small score?" ”
The big score is to divide everything, several brothers are all divided, and the small score is to eat separately, or only one household.
He Daming: "Thank you Uncle for supporting me, no matter whether they are divided or not, our family will be divided anyway." ”
Uncle Yi is He Laifu.
He Laifu and Old Man He are cousins.
"Okay, let's split up, then get out of our house!" Old man He thought that he could use the house to control He Daming's family.
But now the big house is no longer the original big house, isn't it just a house, their family of three has traveled over with the memories and skills of decades later, if they can't even mix a house, it will be too embarrassing for the crossing army.
"Okay."
The He family was stunned, but they didn't expect He Daming to agree so happily.
He Daming continued: "I want to take eighty-six catties of food from home. ”
"You're dreaming!" Yu Xianghua jumped when she heard this number.
"The per capita grain distributed the day before yesterday, there are four people in my big house, a total of 90 catties, we didn't eat anything today, we couldn't eat four catties a day yesterday, I will count it as four catties, take away eighty-six catties, it is reasonable."
"I don't have so much food at home, so I'll give you thirty catties at most." Old man He said angrily.
He didn't want to give a pound.
Old man He and Yu Xianghua's daughter, He Yuhong, married into the county seat, and a lot of the grain sent down was given to He Yuhong by the He family, saying that it was a gift, but in fact, it was for He Yuhong to sell it, or exchange it for something else, such as oil, salt, cloth, etc.
If eighty-six catties were given to He Daming, the rest of the He family would have to tighten their belts.
"Thirty pounds? Old man He, your heart is too ruthless, it is reasonable for Daming to take eighty-six catties, don't go too far. Grandma Chang said.
"They are separated, I am also his father, I live for a day, he will support me!" Old man He said sharply, "Two hundred catties of pension food a year, one catty can't be missing!" Give fifty-six pounds first, what's the problem? ”
As soon as she heard this, she didn't need He Daming to speak, Aunt Gui'e said, "Two hundred catties of grain, why don't you grab it?" A strong laborer like Daming is divided into more than 300 catties of grain a year, and you will have to leave more than half of your mouth when you touch it, are you still a person? If you are not hungry and can move, you can still understand if you want 200 catties, and you can still move and ask your son for so much food, is it a person? Ten miles and eight towns to inquire, is there a case like you? ”
"That's it, the house doesn't give so much food, and those who don't know think you're a stepfather."
"If there is a stepmother, there will be a stepfather, the old saying is true."
……
The villagers couldn't see it anymore and spoke one after another.
Captain He Laifu said: "It is reasonable for Daming to ask for eighty-six catties of grain, pension food, in my opinion, even if it is calculated according to one catty a day, it is 365 catties a year, but you have three sons, and it is evenly distributed to everyone, that is, 121 catties, two hundred catties, which is unreasonable, as for the ...... house." ”
"I live in an old house." He Daming said.
The old house used to be lived by Old Man He's parents, it was relatively remote and the terrain was relatively high, but the house was very dilapidated, and it felt like it could be washed away by a heavy rain, but He Daming didn't mind, as long as he could stay away from the family.
He Daming said again: "Although my dad is not good for our family, he will give birth to me and raise me, according to the 121 catties that the captain said." But Yu Xianghua is not my own mother, she scolded our family of three, and also designed my family Xiufen, so I won't honor her, she has children and daughters, and it is not my turn to be filial to my stepson, so I only give half of 121 catties, that is, sixty and a half catties, I will make up a whole, and I will honor my father every year in the future, sixty-two catties a month, and you can give two more catties in the month of the New Year, just sixty-two catties. ”
I want to honor this dead old woman, what kind of dreams do I have?
The eyes of the old He family are wide open!
He Erming: "Although you are not born to your mother, you are also your mother, and you are not afraid of others poking your backbone!" ”
"To poke and poke the backbones of your brothers!" He Daming said, "Of course, it's not impossible to want a little more, in the future, Dad can't move, so I will take turns to be taken care of by your brothers, I can give an extra twenty or thirty pounds a year, anyway, Dad doesn't like our big house, don't live with us, I believe he can be more comfortable and live longer." ”
"Points! Hurry up and divide it! Old man He was angry, "In the future, I will follow the second and third children, and you will give me 100 catties of pension food every year!" Also, if you are separated, you are not allowed to live at home in the future! ”
Old man He can see it now, He Daming is determined to split up, if he doesn't split up, even if he doesn't die, he won't do things as honestly as before.
He wanted to see where they could live if the old house collapsed after the separation!
How could He Daming not understand this old man's plan?
It's just a house, he believes that they are a family of three, and sooner or later they will build a new house!
But in order to prevent this bad old man from coming to fight the autumn wind, the note must not be missing.
"Dad, you're afraid that the old house will collapse, and we will come back, right?"
Old man He snorted coldly and didn't speak, which was considered a tacit acquiescence.
The people in the village sneered at Old Man He, if they hadn't seen Cao Xiaorou with a big belly and give birth to He Daming, they should have suspected that He Daming had picked it up.
"Since you don't want to see me so much, then in addition to the pension food, we don't want to be involved in anything, everyone is out of sight and out of mind, uncle, please write a note, and please be a witness."
Then under the witness of everyone, he wrote a note, pressed his handprint, and divided the family, and then He Old Man followed He Erming and He Sanming, and He Daming could pay a hundred catties of food every year.
This was followed by weighing the grain and moving.
With the help of the captain and his neighbors, He Daming divided 35 catties of rice, 5 catties of mung beans, and 11 catties of soybeans.
Many people think that the old He family is too much, and they actually give so many soybeans!
Where can soybeans be wrapped?
He Daming's family just wants to split up quickly, soybeans are soybeans, and the separation can't be delayed any longer, for fear of accidents.
Food is the most important thing, and there are few other things.
The family's clothes and bedding were moved by two people in one trip.
Then there is a bath basin, two buckets, a washbasin, a flat burden, a stick, a large basket, a bamboo rake, two dung baskets, a woodcutter, a kitchen knife, a pot for cooking rice, and a number of chopsticks.
In addition, he also took away the cabinets and boxes that Qi Dong brought with him back then.
Like a pot for stir-frying, a pot for boiling water, a kettle, oil and salt, these are not distributed.
These things do not have any extra points in the old He family.
Fortunately, the captain was in charge, and he didn't get these things, so he asked the old He family to take sixty yuan to He Daming.
The purchasing power of sixty yuan is not weak, but in this era, it is not enough to have money, you have to have a ticket, and without a ticket, you can't buy anything, especially the pot, which is very difficult to buy.
I can only slowly find a way to buy it.
