Chapter 52
"Father, you..."

Li Tao waved his hand, stopping Li Chenggu's about to ask questions.

Continued: "Over there in the old house, I buried some silver under the tree roots at the door, it should not have been affected by the fire, you can come for me later, and get the silver... Also, these beforehand Don't let the boss know, you took the money and went directly to the village, and ask him to preside over the division of the family, I'm not strong enough to talk too much, so that's it, you go to work..."

As he spoke, Li Tao coughed a few times.

Li Chenggu knew that his father finally saw it, and he was the only one in the old Li family who understood, so it's not too late to think about separating the family.

The old family is useless, and you can't drag the entire old Li's family into it.

It should not be too late, and I am afraid that Li Tao will go back on his word.

Li Chenggu explained a few words to Qin Ya, then hurried to the old house.

On the edge of the old house, it is easy to find the old tree at the door.

The fire in Li's house burned for three full days. After the fire was extinguished, the house was in ruins, and there were charred things everywhere. The things in the house before had already been annotated.

The old tree at the door was also affected by the fire, half of its bark was burned, and it was standing half dead in front of the ashes.

According to Li Tao's words, Li Chenggu quickly found the place where the things were buried, and dug out a small black box.

After dusting off the dust on the box, Li Chenggu opened the small black box, which was said to be the change that Li Tao had saved for half his life.

There was not much money, only a layer of broken silver on the top, Li Chenggu counted it, and there was only one or two pieces of silver.

What interested him was that there was a receipt under the black box, which contained a foreign debt owed to Li Tao, and the amount was actually 50 taels of silver.

50 taels of silver is not a small amount, and some people will never see it for so many years in their lifetime.

Li Chenggu had never heard that there was such a large sum of money in his family that he could lend it to outsiders. He couldn't figure it out, so he simply put everything back where it was and gave it to the village chief.

When Li Si heard that he had expressed his intention, he readily agreed, and asked the people around him to inform the third child's family and Huang's family.

Li Si himself followed Li Chenggu to the house, and some words and temptations were inevitable on the way.

"It's been a long time since you've been back, and the army hasn't given you any position, so when you go home, it's equivalent to being pardoned from military service, or do you have any other plans?"

Li Chenggu didn't talk much, and he was indifferent and indifferent.

So no matter how Li Si asked, he never said a word.

Li Si was stunned, and couldn't talk any more. The two of them had nothing to say along the way, and returned home.

The eldest family of the family heard that they were going to split up, and they were ready. Qin Ya sat under the eaves with Xin'er in her arms.

Li Si first went into the room to see Li Tao's situation, and after discussing with Li Tao, he came out and said: "I have also discussed with your old Li, and he also told me what he meant, so we will follow the agreement between the two of us. , I am in charge of conveying it, to be a witness to you, and to divide the family."

After hearing this, Mrs. Huang, who came late, yelled unwillingly: "I don't agree with where the family can be separated. No matter what you say, you can't divide..."

Li Tao listened in the room, and cursed angrily in his voice: "Stupid woman, get the hell out of here, and stop meddling in things outside."

Listening to his voice, Mrs. Huang wondered if he had recovered from his injury?
Thinking of Li Tao's serious illness, he didn't take good care of him, so he shivered instantly and walked into the house in fear, not daring to disobey Li Tao's orders anymore.

Outside, Li Chengbai was with the Zhang family, Li Chenggu was with Qin Ya and Xin'er, and the eldest family was standing at another place, all waiting for Li Si to speak.

When Li Si saw this, it was obvious that the juniors supported the separation of the family. He was worried about the reluctance of the elders on the way here just now, and it seemed that the elders also agreed to the separation.

This way things are much easier to handle.

"Your father is also our Yunding Village's first scholar. It can be regarded as giving our Yunding Village a face, but God is not open. After a big fire, his body is dying, and there is not much left in the accumulated family business..."

When everyone mentioned Li Si's mention of the fire, they all knew what was going on.

The youngest looked at the boss frequently, and the boss was also hugging Li Nan'er who was missing a hand.

According to him, asking Li Nan'er for a hand is really cheap for him.

Li Nan'er is simply the sinner of the Li family, who made Li Tao look like this, but the boss's family didn't know what to do, and now that he is favored by the baby, sooner or later, he will cause disaster.

"He handed this box to me today, saying that it contained things he had buried in the ground before, so as to avoid the bad luck of the fire, he still kept some."

He concealed that the box was given to him by Li Chenggu, reckoning that it might cause unnecessary trouble, instead he directly said that Li Tao gave it to him by himself, and opened the black box under the witness of everyone.

There were some small change in it, and I counted it in front of everyone, and there was a total of one or two taels of silver, and fifty copper coins.

Mrs. Zhang curled her lips when she saw this, and said dissatisfiedly: "This can be regarded as a lifetime possession? I thought it was so much. It's not enough to buy vegetables for our family."

Li Si reprimanded her: "Mr. Zhang, you can be regarded as someone's daughter-in-law. Why are you so small? No matter how you say it, the old Li family has suffered, not to mention that today's division of the family does not have your share. "

There is no third son, Li Chengbai, in the divided family. This is what Li Tao said earlier in the morning, and it was also what Li Taoqian told Wan after Li Si went in just now.

Since the third son became someone else's son-in-law, he is no longer a member of Lao Li's family, and Lao Li's family is separated, so naturally he does not have a share.

Mrs. Zhang quit.

"No matter what, we Chengbai also have the blood of the old Li's family, so why doesn't Chengbai have a part in the separated family?"

"This is what your father-in-law said. If you have any dissatisfaction, go talk to him."

Li Si replied.

Mrs. Zhang has a strong temper, and she really planned to find Li Tao in the golden room to make a theory.

Li Chengbai grabbed her and said: "Okay, our family is not short of that little money, not to mention the family is not easy, good my aunt, don't make trouble?"

"Li Chengbai, what do you mean by that, am I doing it for myself? Didn't I see you as pitiful, the division of the old Li family is not for your sake, and you don't help me, and you still blame me, okay? Ah You……"

As the two of them talked, they became more and more violent, and Qin Ya hurried up to try to persuade them to fight.

After persuading these two people, Mrs. Zhang stopped staying here and turned around to leave.

She has nothing to do with the separation, so why let her stay here?

As soon as Li Chengbai saw his daughter-in-law leaving, he hurried up to chase her.

Li Si didn't stop them either, "If you want to leave, you can leave. This time, your father only mentioned Cheng Ming and Cheng Gu..."
