Chapter 25 Who asked you to work in the fields? !

He said it with difficulty and smiled desolately: "Hui Niang and I only have two children, and Xiao Niang was the only one left at that time. But my husband and I are incompetent and old, and we will die before her sooner or later. I am afraid that she will not have a brother to help her. What if she gets bullied by her family when she gets married in the future?"

Poor parents in the world.

In the countryside, if a married woman is not happy, her family will come to the door with weapons to ask for an explanation.

He was worried that his Xiao Niang was isolated and helpless.

It was a sunny day, but the cold air was pervasive, and his bones were trembling with cold.

Wei Shouzhong's voice was choked with sobs.

"I could only watch Wei Qintian marry. The first wife played drums and gongs, and used Alang's pension money to hold a big banquet. How could I not hate her?"

"But I still couldn't protect Xiao Niang."

"But God returned Alang to us."

Wei Shouzhong slowed down: "Hui Niang didn't have a good life after marrying me. Alang also suffered a lot, isn't it enough? Do we have to continue to work like cows and horses to fill the hole of their first wife?"

"I'm tired of this cowardice."

The elders of the Wei family were silent.

They knew that Old Lady Wei had gone too far.

Look at Alang again, the injuries on his body are painful for them to see.

As parents, who can be so free of grudges and give up their own children to raise their brothers?

Hui Niang turned away and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, but she couldn't wipe them away.

"Second son!"

Old Lady Wei poked Wei Shouzhong's back with her cane: "Don't be foolish!"

She pointed at Wei Zhao: "How long can he live with his illness?"

"If you insist on doing it, you will upset Shoucai and me. Don't even think about letting the eldest son take care of you in your old age. No one will bury you when you die."

In the countryside, it is extremely shameful to have a family without a family! You are destined to not be able to hold your head up high.

Wei Shouzhong smiled sadly: "Mother, do you really think I'm precious?"

"Don't mention the matter of adopting Wei Qintian under my name anymore, isn't it disgusting?"

The uncle of the Wei family was afraid that Wei Shen would not survive this severe winter, and his face changed: "Shouzhong, don't say that."

"It's useless for anyone to persuade me today. I'm saying this in front of all the elders."

"Even if my husband and I are so poor that we have to beg, we will treat Alang's illness. If he really..., we will also recognize him."

"What's wrong with the extinction of the family? Do I care?"

"My Alang has fought and killed enemies with General Wei on the border. He has more potential than anyone else!"

Everyone looked at each other, and finally looked at the head of the village.

"This...what do you think?"

The head of the village looked at Shouzhong: "I've really decided."

"Decided."

"No regrets?"

Wei Shouzhong: "Never."

Hui Niang knelt down beside him, tears in her eyes: "I beg my uncle to help me."

The head of the village sighed: "Shouzhong, call your brother."

This is an agreement.

After all, the family is divided, and the people from the first house have to be present.

Old Mrs. Wei: "You are not allowed to go!"

She was so angry that she trembled: "I don't agree!"

But Wei Shouzhong didn't even look at her, and strode out of the yard.

Old Mrs. Wei wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by the head of the village.

The head of the village: "If you keep making trouble, the mother-son relationship will be exhausted, and only hatred will be left. Let's see how you end it!"

Without the second house, the first house is a bunch of useless lazy people. How can Old Mrs. Wei have an easy life?

What should be divided to Wei Shouzhong was divided. According to the rules, the second house had to give Old Mrs. Wei a fixed pension.

If the second house and his wife were really pushed to the limit, even if they didn't pay this money in the future, he, the head of the village, would not intervene.

Old Mrs. Wei: "Go! All of you go! As long as I don't nod, no one can interfere in my family's affairs!"

There is nothing wrong with this. After all, if there is a disagreement in the family, it will not work no matter who comes forward.

But her attitude completely angered the uncle of the Wei family.

He pointed at Old Lady Wei tremblingly.

"At the beginning, your husband was seriously ill. He said that he let you abandon Alang for the sake of the eldest grandson during the conscription, and that he was sorry for the second wife. He knew very well that you, the woman, and the eldest brother were full of ulterior motives. He said that the second son Shouzhong was honest but also had his own ideas, and the matter of Alang had already made him leave his heart. If there is any problem in the future, let us come forward to help. If Shouzhong wants to divide the family, let him do it. He was willing to close his eyes only after seeing us nod."

"Do you really think Shouzhong asked us to come here as a witness! Shouzhong was there at the time, and he was giving you face!" The

division of the family was quite smooth. Wei Shoucai and Zhuang Mei, who ran over to disagree, wanted to shout, but were scolded by the elders of the Wei family.

Old Lady Wei knew that she could not stop it, so she wanted to give the barren land to the second wife and keep the fertile land for Wei Shoucai.

But how could the head of the village agree? He did not let Wei Shouzhong suffer.

A written agreement was made in duplicate, and Wei Shoucai and Wei Shouzhong pressed their fingerprints.

Wei Shoucai never expected that things would turn out like this. He sneered: "You will regret it."

"Then you don't have to worry about it."

Uncle Wei sighed: "What are you arguing about? There was a conflict and the family was divided, but the brothers in the family are still connected even if their bones are broken."

After the business was done, they did not stay for long.

Uncle Wei did not forget to say to Wei Shoucai: "How much pension money is Alang? The government has a record. Your mother has spent a lot over the years, but it was all spent on you. As the eldest brother, you can't embezzle this money. Remember to pay it back. After all, they are still waiting for help."

After these people left, the Wei family's yard was not so cramped.

After such a commotion, Hui Niang felt relieved. She was about to boil the medicine, but found the money next to the medicine pot.

Hui Niang was stunned, thought of something, and looked next door.

This child...

The couple tacitly did not mention Wei Zhao's injury to Old Lady Wei.

Wei Zhao was also tired after watching this drama.

He raised his eyes and looked up at the sky.

To lead troops in battle, one must be able to observe the celestial phenomena.

He stood up slowly.

Hui Niang: !!!

Who told you to go to the ground? !

Can you go to the ground!

She exclaimed: "A Lang."

Wei Zhao stopped and spoke weakly: "Do you want me to move the chair?"

Yes, the chair he just lay on.

Can you move the chair in your current state?

Hui Niang shook her head hurriedly: "No, no, no..."

Wei Zhao's dark eyes were like a thick fog. He murmured: "It's going to rain."

Wei Shouzhong: ...

Why are you talking nonsense.

Wei Shouzhong felt bad that his son was in an abnormal mental state.

He coaxed him: "In the future, except for the New Year and festivals when Dad will go to the old house to give pension money, you will not associate with those who hurt you at other times."

Wei Zhao had no impression of Wei Shen.

There were many soldiers in the Wei family, how could he remember them all. But Wei Shen was a soldier who followed him and died in battle.

Wei Zhao: "Do you need help?"

Wei Shouzhong: "What?"

Wei Zhao: "If you want those people to die, just tell me."

After saying that, he thought of something.

He is so weak now, and it should be difficult to break someone's neck with his bare hands.

"But."

He looked at Wei Shouzhong: "You have to give me a knife."

Wei Shouzhong was just frightened by Wei Zhao's shocking words, but he got anxious when he heard that he wanted a knife.

"Don't even think about it!"

Are you going to stab yourself again! If you

don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me, why are you yelling?

The last person who yelled at him, the grass on his grave is taller than Wei Shouzhong.

But Wei Zhao has no temper now.

His tone is also perfunctory.

"Ah, that's a pity."
