Chapter 370: The Harmonious Concubines After the Separation
The girls of the Li family, who originally said that they were reluctant to leave with them, were thoughtful after seeing that these people didn't want to think about it and agreed.
It's just that the longest marriage in the scene is only ten years, and basically the in-laws' family is not separated, and they still live with their in-laws.
They can't do anything at home.
Even if you want to, you just think about it in your heart.
However, there are also cases where I decided to tell my in-laws about it after I went back, depending on what they meant.
If they are willing to leave, it is best, if they are not, then find a way to separate within ten days.
Of course, more often, like the men in the family, feel that they make a big fuss.
As for their mothers' families, after seeing their attitudes, the eldest sister-in-law or mother will secretly persuade them.
It's just that the effect is not very ideal!
After a lively day, most of the girls who married out of Li Jiaao went back with their families.
The few who were left behind by their mother were persuaded by their mother's family that night.
Also in the evening of this day, the old house of the Li family was also witnessed by the elders of the Li family, and the family was officially separated.
The things of the Li family can be counted.
There are two ox carts, one for one room.
There is no distinction between houses, who currently lives in them, to whom.
There is not much silver left, and the two families don't want it, leaving the old man Li and his family to support their own retirement.
The old couple was very heartwarming and said at the same time that they only kept two taels of silver, and the rest would be used as Zhengzi's future exam preparation.
No matter how far he can get in the exam, whether he is a child or a talent, there are always those.
In addition, the Li family also has nine acres of paddy fields and ten acres of dry land.
As the eldest son, Li Dahai will be supported by him in the future, so he will divide six acres of paddy field and dry land.
Pots and pans and grain at home, they look at the portion.
As for the watermelons and strawberries grown in the big house, I don't know how much silver they can sell for at the moment, so I won't divide them into three rooms.
And Sanfang has spent a lot of money over the years because of Li Zheng's study.
Now that he has inherited Li Yuan's love, the noodle stall business is good, so he will give 50% of the profit by the end of this month to the big house.
From now on, what each house earns will belong to each house.
In the future, if the three rooms are prosperous, the pension silver given to the old couple every month will be given according to the standards of the village.
If it's going to be difficult, it's going to be waived in the past three years.
However, if the old couple has a headache and brain fever, the money for medical treatment needs to be shared equally between the two rooms.
As for the second room, the people in the old mansion felt that they owed Li Jun at the beginning, so they didn't need to include him.
After the old couple finished saying this, and the big house and three rooms had no opinions, the documents for separating the family and not separating the household were officially signed in triplicate.
The people in the big house feel that they have taken advantage of it, and in the future, when Li Zheng is admitted to fame, they can be exempted from forced labor and taxes.
Although they are separated now, they can't get a penny.
But the watermelons and strawberries that can obviously make a lot of money, all the income belongs to them, not to mention, half of the monthly income of Sanfang is also divided into them.
And Sanfang also felt that he had earned, and he had provided a scholar in the family over the years, and they knew how much money Li Zheng had spent on the family.
Aside from these, the silver they now earn from their stalls is visible to the naked eye, and a lot of silver comes in every day.
Even if they only give half of the month's silver, they will still be able to save a lot before everyone leaves.
As for strawberries and watermelons, no one knows when they will ripen, and at what price they will be able to sell at that time.
And these things, the people of the big house have always been busy serving in the field, and they are not qualified to ask for a share of the money.
If they can get a high price, it's a big deal that they will plant it next year!
Not to mention, they learned the craft from Li Yuan, and no matter where they go in the future, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can earn a bite to eat with this craft.
The Li family's separation this time was very smooth.
No one was red-eyed, let alone uncomfortable, and the family was eating together in the evening or the next morning.
After breakfast the next day, the two families didn't even have rice and noodles and pots and pans, so they went their separate ways.
Those who should go to the ground, and those who should go to the county seat should rush to the county seat.
Before leaving, Ma also deliberately said to Ling: "Sister-in-law, Xue Jiao knows a few words, I will ask her to keep a daily profit record, and then roughly calculate how much profit she will have in the next month." You are going to Fucheng here, remember to come to me for silver before leaving, and I won't go back on purpose, so as not to delay business. ”
"Okay, these are not in a hurry, you are busy with you now, if you are too busy, you say, I don't think Shu Niang is busy now, and it is also appropriate to let her go to your stall to help for a few days." When the time comes, you just need to take care of her and eat a mouthful, and you don't need to pay extra wages. ”
"Well, it's all my own family, I know. It's just that Zhengzi's father is still at home, and he can't eat alone, sister-in-law, after you leave, let Duozi cook for them, remember to make him more. Although we are separated, in my opinion, there is no difference from the past. The rations are still together, and you can only use them. If it's not enough, I'll buy it and have someone send it over. ”
"What kind of stupid words, you don't know how much food you have at home."
Ling said, and asked again: "Zhengzi is going to take the exam in April, do you really not go with the third brother and sister at that time?" ”
Ma Shishe had to set up a noodle stall, so he shook his head: "No, he follows Junzi, I don't worry." The mother said that Shao'an has a house in Fucheng, which is said to be quite close to the Gongyuan. I guess Shao'an should go with him then. With them, I went and couldn't do anything but laundry and cooking. Rather than that, it is better to stay in the county and make more money. ”
When the Ling clan heard this, they were about to ask her what she planned to do when the clansmen were ready to leave.
Ma continued: "Sister-in-law, I am going to wait until after May to see the weather conditions before making a decision. When the time comes, if the weather is getting hotter and hotter, the water is getting less and less, and the business is not good, we will go to Fucheng together. Regardless of whether Zhengzi can be admitted to Xiucai or not, we will set off from Fucheng and go to Luyang Mansion with my father. In the current situation of your family, you have to wait for the child to grow up before leaving, I estimate that it will be the next year, so we will take care of the temporary father and mother. ”
Ling Shi was very moved when she heard this, her eyes were swollen and she held Ma's hand tightly: "Third brother and sister, thank you!" ”
"What stupid things to say, we are all family. When we were in the county, weren't you in charge of everything at home? Even if we take care of our parents, it will only be a year and a half, and we will have to rely on you in the future. ”
"Besides, although we are divided, we see that your family is divided a lot, but you and I both know what it will be like. At present, my father and mother are still giving almost all the remaining silver to Zhengzi to catch the exam, and you have nothing, I am so ashamed that I panic. That is, sister-in-law, you don't care about us in general, and I am really grateful to you in my heart. ”
