Chapter 8
Mrs. Wang knew the land at the entrance of the village well, and frowned a little displeased when she heard the words. The land has good geomantic omen. It turned out that the village head's family wanted to buy it, and the money was not low, but the father-in-law was reluctant to sell it. , I want to keep the money and move the main house there in the future, I can't help but suspect that the young couple wants to sell it together.

Thinking that the second elder in the family had a preference for the third elder's family, I couldn't help but feel a little worried that the two elders would agree to give the land to their family, and couldn't help but push the man of their own family twice.

Liu Mingxuan knew what his wife was anxious about, so he quickly interjected and reminded: "Didn't dad save that piece of land and move there when the main house is rebuilt in the future? Besides, the old and young are always in order. When you are young, the third sister-in-law should not break the rules!"

The old man Liu, who had been silent for a long time, finally spoke, "As long as I have breath, you don't even want to tear this family apart. Don't even think about the land at the west end of the village." As soon as Hanyan smashed it on the table, she got up and went into the house.

When Mrs. Lin heard this, the worry that had been hanging in her heart immediately dissipated, and she hurriedly smoothed things over and said: "Let's stop here first, so as not to offend your father."

But Mrs. Lin forgot a word, I can't help my mother!
That Liu Mingxuan stood up abruptly, stepped forward to stop the old man Liu, "Father, wait a moment, no matter what happens today, our family will move out."

Old man Liu didn't expect that the most educated and reasonable boss in the weekdays would not let go of the separation of the family. It seems that he is determined. He looked at Mrs. Lin with some difficulties, and said after a while: "Although you are the elder, but you It doesn't matter what one person says, this family, I still have the final say!" After saying that, he went into the house angrily.

Liu Ruchun, who was squatting outside, couldn't help but feel a little worried when he saw that there was no more to say. The matter of the separation of the family was still aborted, right?She couldn't help looking at her uncle expectantly.

After all, Liu Mingxuan is a scholar, so he didn't dare to contradict his father, but the Wang family stood up as if he had been weighed, and said to her mother-in-law, "No matter what the two elders planned, I We have already made a decision with Yun'er's father, and we have found a house in the town. Now the deposit has been paid, and there is still 180 taels of silver in hand. If the money is not paid in full in the future, they will not refund our deposit. At that time, not to mention paying the money, but also telling Yun'er's father to bear the infamy of breaking the contract and breaking promises."

While Wang was talking, she felt aggrieved, and two lines of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes like drizzle, "Father Yun'er can become a teacher in a private school in the town, and it is not easy to get the respect of the students. Because this matter will ruin your reputation, what will we do then? How will our family live?"

When old man Liu heard this, he was immediately troubled, and seemed to hesitate. After all, what Wang said was correct, if his reputation was ruined because of this matter, it really wasn't worth it.

But they bought a house, and they didn't say they had to move in, did they?Thinking of this, old man Liu faintly felt that something was wrong, they wanted to pay the remaining 100 taels of silver by themselves.

Lin's brain also turned quickly, knowing that the old man wanted money from him, but it was not ten taels or eight taels, but 180 taels. How could he have so much money, let alone save it for his little daughter's dowry? How can she give it to them, not to mention if the family is divided, how can she not keep some pension money?

Seeing that the two elders were silent, Wang Shi was not in a hurry, but was sobbing softly, and Liu Mingxuan was beside her also dejected.

Wu didn't expect that the elders would open their mouths like a lion, and they would need 180 taels of silver to divide the family. The anger in her heart, according to her impatience, could not be as calm as her father-in-law and mother-in-law, but she was not a vegetarian, so she jumped up immediately She smiled at Wang Shi, and she didn't seem to object, but she said: "Sister-in-law means that the house in the town is bought by the parents-in-law, then this house will belong to the parents-in-law in the future. If we come to the town, we can stay for two or three days, if that's the case, I don't object."

Mrs. Wu's words awakened Mrs. Lin. She also wanted to live in the town. Immediately, her eyes lit up and she began to think in her heart. The old man paid the deposit. Now if she makes up the remaining 100 taels of silver, the house will be counted. It's okay if it's under my own name, so I looked at Wang, "Daughter-in-law, what do you think of what the third family said?"

Mrs. Wang was in a hurry. She mainly separated her family today, but she didn't say that she would stick money to buy a house for two old people in the town. She immediately gave Mrs. Wu a bitter look, thinking that Mrs. Lin meant to pay for it. , so I didn't dare to offend, and quickly refused, "It's okay if my parents go to live for a while, but the house is not spacious. If the brothers all go, I'm afraid it will be too narrow, and it will be inconvenient at that time."

stay?Forget it, if you don't give me the deed, then don't waste the money, don't when the house is bought, what if she turns her face and refuses to recognize anyone?After coughing twice, he motioned to old man Liu to tell his own thoughts.

Old man Liu pretended not to see her wink, and just shook the ashes in the rod on the threshold with the dry cigarette.

Liu Ruchun, who was outside the door, was covered in soot all over by him, so he stood up and was about to go back to his own house, but suddenly his aunt called to stop him.

Mrs. Wang only called Liu Ruchun to stop: "Chun girl, you see your third aunt is here, you go back to the house and tell your mother to come over and let's discuss the separation of the family."

Liu Ruchun looked at her blankly, then at grandma's pale face with anger, finally nodded, and went back to call her mother over.

Not long after, Mrs. Zhong came in with Si'er in her arms. She had heard what everyone said a long time ago, and she didn't want to come and get involved, but when her sister-in-law called Chun girl to call herself, her mother-in-law didn't stop her, so she just coming.

"Father, mother." Seeing the second elder, he hugged the child and sat in the corner with his head bowed.

But Mrs. Wang didn't intend to let her go just like that. She just walked up to her, touched Si'er's little cheek, praised a few words, and then introduced the topic: "Fourth sibling, your family now has five members. , but still squeezed in that adobe room, it’s hard enough for you.”

Zhong smiled slightly, did not speak, and did not know what to say.

But I heard Mrs. Wang say: "Today, the third younger siblings just said that their family wants to build a new house. That's a good idea. When they move out, you will have more space."

As soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Wu sneered, "Look at what kind of joke you said, sister-in-law. Our family has built a new house, but the original house has to be piled up with old things." Finally, again Chao Zhong asked with a gentle smile, "Do you think so, brother and sister?"

Mrs. Lin leaned back on the chair, not talking, and let their sisters-in-law argue, Liu Ruchun finally understood why grandma didn't stop her from calling her mother over.
