Chapter 382
After just shouting, Huo Taihuan stopped automatically. He really shouldn't question it. With Huo Tainan's current wealth, even a separation is enough for him to live the rest of his life.In addition, his mother was raised as the main wife, and he was also a descendant. According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the family property should be divided equally.

Thinking of this, Huo Taihuan couldn't help swallowing, feeling that happiness came too suddenly.

But before he could get excited, Huo Taihuan dismissed his thoughts and said: "When my father passed away, the Xia family was just an aunt, so you can only get [-]% of this property as a rule."

This is the truth, but Huo Taihuan was unwilling. He glanced at the patriarch who closed his eyes and meditated. He mustered up his courage and said, "Patriarch, please judge. My mother has become the main wife anyway, so I am also a descendant. Why should I let you go?" My share is less than that of the concubine?"

"You don't have to ask the patriarch about this, I can tell you directly, because your mother remarried, her name is no longer on the genealogy. I think you are the flesh and blood of the Huo family, so I didn't name you." Huo Tainan said in a business-like tone Said, "You must know this."

Huo Taihuan choked for a while, this matter was brought up by the Xia family after she remarried, and she wanted to put her own name under his name, but she failed to succeed after being a successor for so many years, she never thought that it would be for him There was a chance of survival.

Sweat broke out on his forehead again, Huo Tai couldn't look around to wipe it off, he just thought that something is better than nothing, so he muttered: "That's it, it shouldn't be just a [-]%..."

Huo Tainan asked: "Then how much do you think is appropriate?"

After thinking about it, Huo Taihuan stretched out four fingers and said, "Forty percent."

"Heh." Huo Tainan chuckled, and said without hiding the disdain in his eyes, "Let me advise you, insatiable greed will not end well."

The sweat on Huo Taihuan's forehead grew even more, he gritted his teeth, and said with difficulty: "If you make it, you will be [-] percent." Huo Taihuan comforted himself: If he saves some money, [-] percent of the family property in this mansion should be Enough for him to run amuck.

After getting this sentence, Huo Tainan said to the patriarch: "Patriarch, I'm sorry to trouble you."

The old patriarch pursed his shriveled lips, took out an account book from his pocket, dipped his fingers in his mouth, opened it tremblingly, and said: "When your father passed away, he left a thousand acres of fertile land. Silver and miscellaneous items total 1 taels."

Hearing that there is such a wealth, Huo Taihuan couldn't help swallowing again, but he was still not satisfied, and interrupted: "It's not just now that the family is separated, it is fair to divide the current property."

Squinting his eyes slightly, the old patriarch said: "You don't know the rules, I don't blame you."

Gritting his teeth, Huo Taihuan was covered with another layer of hostility: "Nonsense old thing."

As if expecting that Huo Taihuan would be dissatisfied, Huo Tainan took an open Da Zhoulu from Mo Qing and threw it directly at Huo Taihuan.

Huo Taihuan didn't even know a few big characters, so he didn't know what was written on it, so he had to pick it up and look at it pretendingly.

Even so, he knew that what Huo Tainan said should not be false, and he couldn't help feeling depressed.But soon, he thought, anyway, the family property was rich enough when his father passed away, if [-]% would be enough for him to bribe the person who bought an official, if he became an official himself, then why worry about making a living?
After making up his mind, Huo Taihuan sat down again.

"Have you heard clearly?" The patriarch closed the ledger tremblingly, stuffed it back into his arms, and said, "Your father was worried about this at the beginning, and sent the ledger to the old man on purpose, but he never thought it would be useful now. "

Huo Taihuan couldn't understand a little bit, since the family was going to be separated, they should be separated, what are you doing with these useless things?
Looking at Huo Taihuan, the patriarch's eyes flashed brightly: "At the beginning, the county horse left home early, and before the family property was handed over, it was collected by the Xia family as his dowry."

With a thump in his heart, Huo Taihuan, who sensed something was wrong, said: "My mother is the main wife, and my father is gone. Naturally, she is in charge of those properties. What's there to say?"

The patriarch smacked his lips and said: "If the Xia family can keep it, the money will belong to her, but since she remarried, she should return it as it is."

Huo Taihuan was choked again, he didn't know if it was something in the law, he only knew that if he couldn't think of a way, he might have to pay a lot if he didn't get any money.

Sure enough, the patriarch said later: "It stands to reason, you should return the original nine deals to your elder brother."

"I, I don't want to separate!" Huo Taihuan sat up again, "Who said we want to separate?"

Huo Tainan said with a faint smile on his face, "Aren't you very positive just now?"

For a moment, Huo Taihuan's face looked as if he had opened a dyeing workshop. He shook his head and said, "I don't want to separate. I never said that I want to separate. Brother, how can you be so heartless?"

"Don't forget, I came here today not to discuss with you, but to inform you." Huo Tainan said slowly, "Understood?"

It was obviously a plain tone, but it made Huo Taihuan break out in a cold sweat, and he insisted: "I don't separate families, I don't separate families."

Seeing that Huo Taihuan still didn't give up, Huo Tainan reminded: "Patriarch, do you know how to punish buying an official according to Da Zhou's law?"

"Naturally beheaded to show the public." The patriarch replied.

"Oh..." Huo Tainan responded meaningfully, then looked at Huo Taihuan, "Can you hear me clearly?"

"Are you threatening me?" Huo Taihuan clenched his teeth, chattering.

"So what?" Huo Tainan chuckled, and said, "I think you won't be able to raise that much money in a while, I'll give you a week, if after a week, you haven't paid what you should, but you can just Don't blame me for being rude."

Huo Taihuan clenched his fists, his eyes were red: "You!"

"Don't think of anything else." Huo Tainan said lightly, "I will find someone to watch you."

Huo Taihuan, who was stimulated again and again, yelled, and shouted like a hungry tiger: "Bastard! I will fight with you!"

Huo Tainan, who had expected this move earlier, moved his hand, and the teacup on the table flew out like a hidden weapon, and hit Huo Taihuan's knee directly. With a loud "bang", Huo Taihuan fell to the ground, clutching his knees and screaming for pain.

Seeing that the problem was solved, Chu Liangrao was very relaxed and happy to deal with the aftermath: "Come here, send the two of you out."

Huo Taihuan looked disbelieving, and shouted: "Princess! How come you..."

"What about me?" Chu Liangrao tilted his head slightly, with a naive expression on his face, "Am I too kind? Then throw it out!"

This time, Huo Taihuan was almost hurt internally. He thought that Chu Liangrao looked so gentle, so he would not provoke her, and she would help her to speak, but she was actually the one who added fuel to the fire!
