Chapter 384: Bad luck, too little share
Liu Zhijiang, Liu Zhihe, and Liu Zhihu, who were sitting opposite, heard their father arrange it like this, and they had no opinion.
It's just that the sudden mention of the separation made them feel a little lost.
Even if they are brothers, they are two families.
Even if they help each other on weekdays, the closest thing is their own small family, not a big family.
Old man Liu and Mrs. Liu suffered this loss back then, and they didn't want to get older and more confused.
Now the eldest brother Liu Chengpeng's family, several sons, and grandchildren, they are doing this again, favoring promising sons, making a lot of noise and quarreling.
These things made Old Man Liu and Mrs. Liu strengthen their determination to split up.
Old man Liu looked at his three sons, "Well, do you agree to divide it like this?" β
Liu Zhijiang raised his head and nodded hurriedly, "Daddy and mother are the most fair, no matter how we divide it, we all think it's good!" β
"It's good to score like this, and I'm very satisfied with us, in fact, you have already favored me and the third brother!" Liu Zhihe also hurriedly said.
According to the division of the family according to the etiquette, the eldest son is responsible for providing for the elderly, and then he can share half of the family property.
But just now my father said that except for the extra one hundred taels of money to the eldest brother, the others are very fair, and basically the three families share it equally.
Liu Zhihu also nodded, "Dad, I think you have given us too much, the eldest brother has four sons and a daughter, and we will all need ......money in the future."
Liu Zhijiang hurriedly waved his hand when he heard this, "Third child, don't say that, it always makes sense for your father and mother to divide like this!" Although there are many children in my family, but Erlang and Erlang have also grown up, and they have their own crafts, Goro is very good at reading, and Hachiro is practicing martial arts, and he also has a good appearance.
As for the appearance of Xiao Jiu'er in the family, her abilities are very good, and she will only get better and better in the future, and she will not become worse because there are many children! β
Old man Liu nodded very gratified when he heard the humility of the three brothers, "Your eldest brother is right, in the future, your mother and I will live with your eldest brother, and when we are a hundred years later, this little thing in your hand will also belong to your eldest brother!" On weekdays, we don't want to provide for the silver, nor do we need to provide for the food, sit with us when we are free, and it is good to talk! β
Old man Liu's words made the three sons very grateful.
So under the witness of Patriarch Liu and Zhao Lichang, a document was set up for the separation of the family.
That's just a separate family paperwork, not a single detached household, as a way to avoid taxes.
Because there is a household tax after the establishment of the household, this is also why many families are unwilling to separate even if they have been in the same house for several generations.
It wasn't until the death of his parents that he had to split up, so he went to the county government to set up a household.
Such a division made Wu Xiao'e and Wang Taohua very satisfied.
When drawing lots, Liu Zhijiang caught ducks and ponds; Liu Zhihe caught pigs and melon fields; Liu Zhihu caught raising chickens and bean dantian.
It's a fair family.
Wu Xiao'e didn't expect to get so much, and the corners of her mouth kept upturning. If it weren't for the man glaring at her, she would have laughed at her eldest brother and sister-in-law's house.
Wang Taohua looked at the silver in his hand and the chickens and beans in his hand, and couldn't believe it, "The second brother and you caught the money, but the eldest brother's family caught ducks and ponds, and the annual output is only half of our family." Is this big brother and sister-in-law angry? β
After Liu Zhihu heard this, he sighed, "I'm also worried, but I see that my eldest brother and sister-in-law's expression is as usual, so I shouldn't be angry, right?" β
Wang Taohua thought about it, Liu Yiyi's shrewd and beautiful eyes flashed in her mind, and she smiled, "But if I have a smart daughter like Xiao Jiu'er, I'm not in a hurry."
Think about these industries in our family, which one of them was not made by Xiao Jiu'er? If Xiao Jiu'er is here, then there will be a God of Wealth doll. Maybe in a few days, people will be able to think of a new way to make a fortune. β
Liu Zhihe nodded, "Yes, Xiao Jiu'er has been practicing martial arts for the past three years, and it seems that she hasn't bothered about her family's industry." Now that the family is separated, with her worried personality, it is estimated that she will use her brain again. β
"Yes, it's very likely, in charge, let's keep an eye on the eldest brother and sister-in-law's house. If there is a good business, let's also invest and get dividends! Anyway, if you put this silver in your hands, you can't get a cub, so we have to find a chance to make money. Wang Taohua said that the family's industrial output is fixed, and the silver in his hand is used for investment, so that he can become more and more.
Wu Xiao'e and Liu Zhihe also think so.
Zhao Xiaolan put away the silver and put it in a box, as well as the paperwork for the separation, which was also packed in a clean and sturdy purse.
"Hey, your luck is really bad, the pond produces only ten taels of silver a year, and as for those ducks, they can have sixty taels of silver, this calculation, except for the ground, there are only seventy taels of income a year." Zhao Xiaolan said with a little complaint, the second brother and the third brother can get hundreds of taels of income every year.
The eldest son and the second son of the family are one year apart.
Not only to show the eldest husband the family, but also to the second lang, all kinds of rituals, dowry, are indispensable.
Because the people who are said to be from well-to-do families, the dowry must be more than the average one, which will cost a lot.
Liu Zhihe sighed and slapped his right hand, "Hey, my luck is not good at all, Gorou still has to studyΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
When Liu Yiyi learned about the things assigned to this big house, she knew that her mother would feel uncomfortable, so she took the opportunity to send dried clothes to her father and mother to come to her parents' room.
"Dad, mother, how much silver is there in our family, including the silver of the divided family?" Liu Yiyi asked, she had a lot of wonderful ideas in her heart, and now she could finally take them out.
Zhao Xiaolan was stunned for a moment, and looked at her daughter suspiciously, "Xiao Jiu'er, why are you asking this?" Don't worry, the family will definitely prepare a decent dowry for you. β
When Liu Yiyi heard this, she rolled her cute little eyes, "Mother, I'm only seven years old, and I'm only eight years old after the New Year, so it's too early to wait for marriage." I came to ask because I suggested buying a shop at home, and we would open a shop at home. It's easy, it's more money, and you don't have to be so tired. β
"Huh?" Liu Zhihe was stunned, "Buy a shop?" Our ancestors have never done business for generations, and we don't know what business to do when we buy a shop? β
Although Liu Zhijiang has some insight outside, small farmers are naturally afraid of doing business, and they are afraid of losing their money.
Zhao Xiaolan pushed her husband away, looked at Liu Yiyi, and asked, "Xiao Jiu'er, your father has also saved dozens of taels of silver over the years, and we now have four hundred and sixty-eight taels of silver in our family." However, you have to leave fifty taels of silver to give your eldest brother a dowry, and give your eldest brother a daughter-in-law to do a decent dowry. β
Liu Yiyi also took out her small purse, and then said: "Mother, I have sixty-two taels of silver here, which I cooked for the Guan Zhu and the immortal chief, and they gave it to me." With this money, we can buy a shop in the county seat. β
"More than 400 taels of silver, you should be able to buy a shop in the county seat, but Xiao Jiu'er, you haven't said what kind of business our family has?" Liu Zhijiang asked, quite anxious.
Liu Yiyi took out a piece of paper from her cuff, and then handed it to her mother, Daddy, "Look what this is?" β
