Chapter 18

The money is gone. "I agree to divide the family business, divide it now, and divide it quickly. After that, I still have to go back to herding cattle!

"Well, I've kept this cow for so long that I've become attached to it. I can't bear to see it starve!"

This is his precious cow. If he feeds it well, he can earn several work points a day!

You can also go fishing while herding cattle!

Where can I find a more comfortable job than this?

Old man Chen fanned himself with his hands and said, "It's so hot out here. I'm sweating all over so early in the morning."

As he spoke, his hands unconsciously picked up the unfinished sugar water from his in-laws and poured it into his stomach, smacking his lips.

“It’s pretty sweet!”

Just like an old street guy!

Everyone was speechless and the atmosphere was a bit weird.

Old man Zhao was used to it a long time ago, so he didn't care and just chuckled.

Old Mrs. Chen is not very capable, she is just a paper tiger. Seeing that the old man, the second son and the third son's family are already discussing how to divide the property, she can only hide in the corner and get angry.

She had put out the fire, so Chen Changhai naturally couldn't stand up anymore.

The branch secretary coughed lightly and suppressed his laughter, "Then let's start dividing. You have five rooms in your family, one for each of the eldest, second, and third sons.

You two old people can have one room, and the remaining room will cost twenty-five dollars.

Look, who among you brothers is going to buy it?"

Chen Changhai opened his mouth, wanting to say that he was also a son and had a share in the house.

But after all, there are outsiders here, so we still have to have some shame.

"Our family wants it!" Shi Lanhua said in a loud voice, afraid that someone else would snatch it from her. "Look at that second sister-in-law, Qinggui is already twenty years old.

Look at this..."

As for the third brother's family, there are two girls, so there is no need to consider them.

"I have no objection!" Zhao Xiangmei smiled.

Her family is going to rebuild their house.

The house was settled like this, and the Party Secretary continued, "Every family gets one chicken, and the extra one..."

"Kill and eat the meat to celebrate the division of the family."

Old man Chen raised his hands high. The hens at home were very fat and he had been craving them for a long time.

That thigh must be very thick and must be very fragrant. Before, he hoped that the chicken would die on its own every day.

Chen Shengnan, who was also greedy, applauded in agreement.

The branch secretary rubbed his brows, feeling tired and said weakly, "The guys who eat are paid by the head.

As for the iron pot... count it as money.

Whoever wants it pays, otherwise we take turns using it."

"My family wants it!"

Shi Lanhua spoke actively again, saying that industrial coupons are needed to buy iron pots.

"You want everything, do you want a thatched house?"

Old Mrs. Chen scolded her, saying that if she hadn't said she wanted to split up the family business, nothing like this would have happened.

Old Mrs. Chen was very angry.

"Give it to the third child's family!" Zhao Xiangmei didn't want it either. She thought about writing a letter to her child's father to ask for industrial coupons to buy new ones.

The fire at home is too thin.

Shi Lanhua moved her lips but didn't say anything else.

"Work points are counted for each family, and they are divided when food is distributed at the end of the year."

Shi Lanhua was about to jump up again, but just as she lifted her butt off the bench, Chen Changjiang glared at her.

He was also anxious, knowing that his family did not have many work points, but who could he blame? It was they themselves who wanted to take advantage and often did not go to work.

Chen Qingyi found it funny and must have regretted being lazy before!

The others also noticed it, but pretended not to see it. The branch secretary continued, saying that he had presided over many family divisions and had experience.

"Then there's money!"

This is a big deal. Everyone's eyes lit up and they looked at Old Lady Chen with anticipation.

Old Mrs. Chen had a sad face and hesitated, as if she didn't hear anything.

Old Man Chen held the money in his pocket, thinking about his grandson's promise, and slammed the table, "Hurry up, Dahua is crying out for food!"

“…”

In the end, she knew that no matter how reluctant she was, she had to separate, so she reluctantly stuck her butt out and rummaged around in the kangqin again and again.

He took out a small wooden box and took out a small red cloth bag from it.

Slowly, open it little by little.

Then I was dumbfounded...

"Where's the money? Where's my money? Why is there only so little left?"

Shi Lanhua's heart was beating wildly. "What's going on? What's going on? Is there something missing?"

Chen Changjiang no longer pretended to be calm, and the others also looked nervous and asked:

"How much less?"

"Did you put it in the wrong place?"

"Check it out carefully!"

In fact, there is no need to check at all. At this time, the largest coin is the ten-yuan Great Unity, and there are also yuan, jiao, and fen coins.

Usually a stack of dozens of yuan is enough.

The Chen family has more than just a few dozen dollars!

Old Mrs. Chen didn't waste any more time. She quickly grabbed them in her hand, licked them quickly on her tongue with her index finger, and checked them very quickly.

“One hundred…one hundred and eighty…four hundred and sixty!!!

"Wow, wow, wow... How come I only have 460 yuan left? I clearly had 2,260 yuan and 78 cents!"

hiss……

Everyone gasped.

The Chen family is so rich! !

This was an era when five hundred could buy a job and less than a hundred could build three mud houses!

Even the usually calm branch secretary was mechanically smoking his pipe, burning the tobacco without noticing.

Grandpa Zhao and his wife also stared with wide eyes.

In the past, the Chen family would have been overjoyed, but now...

Old lady Chen slapped her thigh and cried loudly. How could the others, who had been in the industry for decades, not see that Old Lady Chen was crying sincerely?

But how can it just disappear?

Shi Lanhua was so anxious that she jumped onto the kang with her shoes on and rummaged through the drawers.

Empty everything out of the cabinet.

Like crazy, his hair was standing on end, and his lips were trembling. "It's gone, it's gone!"

He stared at Chen Changhai, "Did you take it? Did you?"

"no!"

Chen Changhai was so scared that he shook his head like a wave drum. He didn't dare to recognize such a large amount of money.

"Who else could it be if not you?" If it was stolen by an outsider, they would all be held responsible.

"yes!"

Chen Shengnan also became anxious, "Uncle, you want to buy a house, but the money has always been kept!"

The meaning is obvious, Old Lady Chen gave it to Chen Changhai.

Chen Changhai was in tears. This was really like mud falling into his crotch. It was shit if not shit.

It’s hard to explain, but I have to say it, “It’s really not me, I need 800 to buy a house, I can just borrow 700.

How can I spend so much money!"

Chen Qingyi touched her nose. Before she had time to look, she realized that she had taken away 1,860.78 yuan.

Her scumbag dad has been making 40 yuan every month for the past three years.

Before that, thirty, twenty.

It can be said that all the money of the Chen family was mailed back by the scumbag father, and the team could only barely fill their stomachs throughout the year.

They didn’t get any money at all. Last year, their family only got ten yuan.

Not to mention that the Chen family built so many houses and sent their children to school, so they had enough food and clothing.

So she has no guilty conscience.

He could still say something naughty, "Uncle, so your family wants to buy a house, so you have a hundred dollars? Uncle, you and aunt are both working.

A total of more than seventy a month, right?

Just save a hundred?"

Who are you trying to fool? Even a dog wouldn’t believe it.

Hearing this, the others also frowned and looked at Chen Changhai with disapproval.

The branch secretary patted the edge of the kang and said, "Changhai, if you have such ulterior motives, don't always use them against your family!"

No matter how thick-skinned Chen Changhai was, his face turned red, his lips trembled, and he was unable to defend himself.

The family couldn't find it, Chen Changhai refused to admit it, and the atmosphere of the subsequent division of the family was depressed.
