The man was so frightened that he peed his pants instantly and became scared to death.

But the people further away had the courage to shout: "You can't kill people, is there any law left for the king!"

But no one responded to his shouts, so he immediately lowered his head and reduced his sense of presence.

Shui Zheran looked around coldly and said, "I'm telling you, just listen to the village chief's arrangements. If anyone dares to cause trouble, don't blame me for being rude. I am the communications officer of the government office. The official will believe it if you say it."

Do you still believe me?"

The villagers were as quiet as chickens for an instant.

Shui Zheran finally figured it out. In this time and space, bullying others is a necessary method.

Shui Dongliu saw that they were quiet, so he stood up and said, "Just tell me whether you will listen to my arrangement as the village chief."

"listen……"

"Of course I listened..."

The villagers' arrogance disappeared and they all looked at Shui Zheran in fear.

Shui Dongliu nodded, "Sure, I, Shui Dongliu, am the patriarch of the Shui family and the village chief of Ruoshui Village. Now I am stepping down from the position of patriarch and will only be the village chief from now on."

"So I will no longer be involved in the internal affairs of the Shui family from now on. If you want to choose the clan leader, you can choose it yourself. I will only take care of the affairs of the village."

He paused and then said: "Now you first finalize the matter of dividing the family. Who will belong to whose family, or whether they will be divided according to who lives in the cave. I have to register them all, and then we will divide the land after sending it to the government tomorrow."

As he said that, he took out the map drawn by Shui Ling, unfolded it and illuminated it, "There is a map here. You can take a look at it first. As far as I know, the plains here are quite good, and there are hot springs in another place, but there are many wild beasts there. You should first take a look.

After taking a look, I will have an idea."

He thought for a while and then added, "Don't think about the flat land here. I have other plans, but they will definitely not be for Shui Zheran."

When the villagers heard that it was not for Shui Zheran, they felt at ease. They immediately rushed to look at the map and study the division of the family.

Originally, the Shui family was divided into twenty-four households, and with the addition of those who came later, there were twenty-eight households in total. But at night, when Shui Dongliu read the documents, he frowned so hard that he could kill a fly.

Shui Zhehao heard his grandfather always sighing and asked: "Grandpa, why do you sigh?"

Shui Dongliu slapped the table angrily and stood up and said: "These bastards, they must have heard that the old man can't farm his own land, so they gave the old man away. What a good plan."

Shui Zhehao was silent for a moment and asked: "How many households are there now?"

Shui Zheran took the record and said: "Fifty-six households, the last four households have nothing to say, they are still the same."

"We used to have three generations as one household here, but now there are many brothers and they are separated. Eight of them actually don't want the elderly. Now there are eight more pseudo-lonely elderly people."

Shui Zhehao sighed, "Let's discuss this with the fourth brother. The fourth brother has many ideas."

"Okay, you come with me and have dinner together." Shui Dongliu pulled Shui Zhehao.

In the afternoon, the remaining food had been divided according to head, so now each family can make their own meals and borrow the tools in the shared dining room.

When she arrived at Shui Ling's house, Shui Ling was making rice in bamboo tubes. She thought it was convenient to put it in the warehouse and keep it fresh, so she could take it out and eat it when she was hungry.

Shuidongliu moved his nose and said, "It smells so good. You should save some on your food."

Shui Ling smiled and said: "Grandpa, don't worry, I'm sure you won't starve to death. By the way, does Grandpa form his own family or how are they divided?"

Shui Dongliu sighed, "I am my own family, and I will live with those abandoned old men and women."

He pulled Shui Zhehao to sit down on the bamboo chair, picked up the dried fruits on the table politely, chewed them, and gave Shui Zhehao a handful. Shui Zhehao was still very embarrassed.

Shui Dongliu's eyes widened, "Eat it, your fourth brother and his family are not stingy, and they won't be happy if you don't eat it."

Shui Ling chuckled and couldn't help but want to tease him, "Grandpa, those are other people's snacks. How can you rob them from a child? You are so bad!"

Shui Dongliu rolled his eyes, and said angrily and funny: "Be normal, I don't treat you like a kid, and I have never shied away from discussing anything."

"Hahaha..." Shui Ling laughed.

Shui Zhehao also smiled slightly. The fourth child's family had really changed. Maybe they would not be sad in the future, but it was not good for him to drag them down like this.

"Grandpa, can I give them my land? You see, I can't plant it, and I've been freeloading."

Shui Dongliu nodded, "Of course, if I hadn't been over fifty-five, all my land would have been given to them."

Shui Ling cooked the meal and the whole family started eating. Now Shui Zhehao can use a spoon very well and no one needs to feed him anymore.

After eating, Shui Dongliu said: "Eight old people who are unable to work have been separated. How do you think we should arrange them?"

Shui Ling listened silently without commenting.

Shui Zheran smiled and said: "What's the point? Organize the elderly into one household, such as a nursing home. They will plant in the same village and harvest their share."

After a pause, he added, "The half that belongs to the elderly will not be given to the elderly. The village chief will exchange the money to buy clothes, bedding, etc. to ensure that they are safe and comfortable in the rest of their lives."

Shui Dongliu asked: "Why not separate them? I'm afraid they will have objections if we unify them."

"If you don't like it, don't live in a nursing home. If you live alone, you can give it to him. At that time, he can subsidize whoever he is willing to subsidize. Therefore, it is his business to starve to death." Shui Zheran considered the issue of gnawing at the elderly.

Shui Dongliu was awakened by the words, "I understand, I will do as you say."

After the discussion, everyone went back to rest.

The next day, Shui Dongliu told the story about the nursing home, but the villagers had no reaction. Most people were willing to take care of the elderly.

Those who were not willing to provide for the elderly were not happy. Some people said: "Why should the village take care of it? Half of my father's land must be given to him."

Shui Dongliu said calmly: "That's okay, but your father can't go into a nursing home. You need to build a house alone. Half of the harvest will be given to your father."

"Now the ugly talk is ahead. You only have one chance to enter the nursing home. If you don't enter this time, you will not be able to enter again. The village will not care if the food is robbed or used as subsidies to starve to death in poverty."

Some elderly people who wanted to support their families felt trembling. They didn't even support their children, so they ruthlessly gave them away. It would be a waste to subsidize them. Now all the elderly expressed their willingness to enter nursing homes.

In this way, there are twelve elderly people in the nursing home, and half of the land at the door will be allocated to the elderly, and the other half will be planned as a vegetable plot.

The people who drew the lots didn't complain too much. After all, they could see it at a glance at the door, and the land was still free.

Shui Ling helped Shui Zhehao pump and found that his land was connected with his, making it easier to take care of.
