Chapter 31 The separation is complete~
Dad, just saying this means that his attitude has become more relaxed.
This time the family division may be really good. Qian's eyes rolled around several times. Their house was a big house. Logically speaking, their parents had to live with them, so they should divide more things.
Cheng Dalang said anxiously: "Dad, I..."
Before he finished speaking, Qian's thin voice covered his voice: "Mom and Dad, Dalang and I also want to separate our families! It's really inconvenient for our three children to live there."
"Da Ya has grown so big and is still sleeping with Zhu Zhu. What kind of news is this?"
Qian stretched out his hand and pushed the pillar in front of Old Man Cheng and the two of them.
Zhuzi knew what the separation meant and immediately shouted: "That's right, grandparents, I will be able to marry a wife in a few years and sleeping with my sister will be looked down upon. I want a room!"
Mrs. Zhao was full of curse words and could no longer say them after confronting her eldest grandson.
Da Ya's face turned red and she wanted to cry or not. She wished she could stuff herself into the ground.
Cheng Dalang waited for Mrs. Qian to finish speaking before reaching out and pulling her back, pointing at his nose and cursing: "Who will be the father and mother after the separation, and who will raise the younger siblings! If you don't know, don't talk nonsense!"
Qian was so cruel that he was submissive.
In fact, he also wanted to separate the family, but if he mentioned this matter as the eldest son of the family, people in the village would poke his spine and scold him for being unfilial.
Moreover, Wulang is not married yet. If the family is divided now, his parents will definitely give him more money. Will the amount allocated to the eldest family soon be less? And those lands, he has not yet chosen which ones he wants.
When others heard this, they knew that Cheng Dalang also agreed to split up the family.
Then only Sanlang and Wulang were left who had not expressed their opinions. Cheng Sanlang had an honest expression and reluctantly said: "Mom and Dad, I don't want to separate the family. How well my mother manages this family, my mother doesn't care about our children."
You have to be submissive."
Meng was furious when she heard this.
She brought up the child with poop and urine, so why did it become the mother's fault when it came into his mouth!
Meng couldn't believe it. Just when she was about to have a seizure, Cheng Sanlang suddenly grabbed her arm and took her behind her, looking at her with warning eyes. Meng's heart suddenly became frightened and she couldn't say a word.
When everyone looked at Cheng Wulang, he was obviously still a little out of sorts.
If anyone in the Cheng family is least likely to want to separate the family, it must be Wu Lang. He is an old man. He has been manipulated since he was a child. He has everything he wants, including farm work and other things. He has four older brothers.
.
The Cheng family brothers all looked at him nervously.
Miaomiao could sense the difference in the atmosphere, but she didn't quite understand it. In nature, it was rare for a large family to live together.
There are even many animals that drive children out of their nests after they have the ability to hunt.
Therefore, in her opinion, separation of families is normal.
Miaomiao rubbed her eyes with her hands. After rubbing her eyes, they were no longer so itchy. Then she looked over again. She found that Wu Lang, who had stolen her duck, was looking at her. She immediately stared back with a grin on her face.
He doesn't look fierce like this, but rather pitiful.
Cheng Wulang: "..."
Then he met the guarded eyes of his second brother and second sister-in-law.
He said dullly: "Mom and dad, I don't want to separate the family, but if my second brother and the others want to separate, then let them do it."
After hearing this, Mrs. Zhao was immediately dissatisfied. She just felt sorry for her younger son.
Wulang hasn't gotten married yet. He helped his previous brothers when they got married. If the family is divided now, where will the people, money, and food come from?
The village chief's face with Chinese characters straightened up and he said: "Old Cheng, brothers will become enemies if they quarrel over trivial matters too much. You have to think clearly."
Don't let this situation be too obvious right now.
What they are thinking about is not whether to divide the family, but what they are thinking about is how to divide more things.
Old Man Cheng sighed heavily, as if he had aged dozens of years all of a sudden. When he got older, he realized that all these children he had cared about were the coffin books he had finally saved.
"What kind of division! Unless I die, this family cannot be divided!"
Mrs. Zhao let her hair fall, fell to the ground, slapped her thighs, and started crying at the top of her lungs.
Everyone exclaimed: "Mother!"
Cheng Wulang hurriedly went to help his mother, but he couldn't help her up. She was lying on the ground unable to afford it. He threatened: "If any of you mention the separation of the family again, I will die for you!"
"!!!"
The surrounding villagers were immediately stunned.
The village chief and Li Zheng also frowned. It was difficult for an upright official to handle household affairs, and it would be even more difficult if he encountered a cheater. They looked at Cheng Erlang with sympathy. Today, the family might not be able to separate.
But what everyone didn't expect was that Cheng Erlang knelt directly on the ground and kowtowed three times.
The force was so strong that it even shook the ground.
When he raised his head again, Cheng Erlang's forehead was bruised and covered with blood marks from pebbles.
"Mom and Dad, I know I'm not filial. Wu Lang and my little sister haven't gotten married yet. We don't want to ask for much when we separate. We can leave everything to them, and the pension money we should give will not be less."
Cheng Miaomiao was startled: "Dad..."
Before she could finish her words, Ye Ning pulled her down to her knees.
Li Zheng sighed and said: "Old Cheng, Erlang is completely heartbroken this time and wants to separate the family. If you are not willing to split the whole family, then just separate his family."
Mrs. Zhao started crying even harder.
Old Cheng, who was already upset, became even worse. His voice was tired and hoarse, and he said: "Divide! Divide them all! If you want to divide your family, please stand up and we will all be divided today!"
Little Zhou suddenly felt happy and quickly dragged Shiro to the front.
Qian couldn't help but said: "Da Lang, let's separate our families too. You can't just watch Zhu Zhu not get a wife, right?"
Cheng Dalang hesitated for a while, and finally chose to stand up.
In the end, only Cheng Sanlang was left standing next to Mrs. Zhao. He shook his head and said, "Mom and dad, I still want to support you in your old age. I won't separate the family." Only Meng was left there, sweating anxiously.
Old man Cheng felt a little relieved after seeing this.
"A good boy, not like those heartless ones!"
Mrs. Zhao also grabbed Sanlang's hand excitedly and glared at Erlang's family.
Cheng Miaomiao was confused when he suddenly met her fierce eyes and couldn't help but puffed up his cheeks and stared back. Who is afraid of whom?
"When you got married, you all spent your family's money on food. Since we are going to separate, you can only take away the things in the room. Don't worry about your mother and I's coffins. They are for Wulang and my younger sister.
It’s for getting married.”
"My family has fifteen acres of farmland, seven acres of paddy field, and eight acres of dry land. Each of you has three acres, Erlang and Wulang have two acres, and we will plant the remaining two acres."
Obviously, Old Man Cheng said this because he was dissatisfied with Erlang's proposal to separate the family and deliberately ran against him.
But Cheng Erlang and Ye Ning agreed without thinking.
After Old Man Cheng made his decision, he patted Old Mrs. Zhao and asked her to take out the land deed and distribute it to his five sons in front of the village chief and Li Zheng. Cheng Erlang was assigned one acre of paddy field and one acre of dry land.
Either the smallest or the poorest.
Li Zheng shook his head after seeing it clearly. He didn't expect that Old Cheng was also confused. Who in the entire Xiaohe Village didn't know that Cheng Erlang was the best at serving crops and was the most efficient among the Cheng family brothers.
If he divided things like this, no one in the village would say anything behind his back.
The village chief also frowned and was about to say something when Cheng Erlang stood up and stopped him, shaking his head at him pleadingly.
The village chief could only sigh.
The people who separated from the family must give Old Man Cheng and his wife one tael of silver every year, which is equivalent to eighty-three coins every month. This is a rule set by the village long ago, regardless of whether it is divided or not.
It will be given to every household.
The Cheng family brothers each pressed their fingerprints on the family division certificate and each kept a copy.
Cheng Erlang's heart felt like a big stone had loosened up. He clutched the papers and turned to look at Ye Ning, who was also relaxed. She pursed her lips and smiled softly.
The sky in the summer evening is clear and bright, and only the horizon is stained with a bright glow.
