Chapter 27 I didn’t expect you to be right
The secretary glanced at Old Man Liu and decided to be a good person: "You can use the original gate for now, but I'm afraid it won't work for a long time. You can't leave a way for you to enter and exit when the second house is building the wall, right?"
The normally silent third wife couldn't sit still this time: "Our family got less than the eldest brother, but it's not good to be worse than the second family. After all, I gave birth to a grandson for the Liu family. If the gate and the kitchen are given to the second family, I don't agree.
If that's the case, wouldn't the first and third rooms have to tear down their houses to open the front door? Besides, this time it's just the second room that's being divided out, we can't just give them the kitchen, what about my parents and the whole family then?"
Liu Chuxue glanced at the village party secretary: It would be great if the front door and the kitchen could be allocated to the second room, but Chuxue would not force it. After all, her main purpose was to leave the Liu family.
As for the house, it was only temporary. When she had money in the future, she would naturally find another place to rebuild it. She didn't want to quarrel with the Liu family all day long.
Chu Xue and her mother analyzed the pros and cons in a low voice. Liu's mother knew the importance of the two. "We won't fight for the location of the main door and the kitchen. If we want to enclose a yard in the future, we will just leave a 1.2-meter aisle. We can't make it difficult for Dad."
The words sounded nice, but in reality they didn't want to waste any more time. After all, Liu Shanliang's injured leg couldn't wait, and they still had to catch the morning bus to the city.
Given the concessions made by the second wife, the rest of the matter was quickly settled.
As for the old couple's pension, the branch secretary and the village chief will follow the village standards. Starting next year, they will be given 10 yuan in pension and 200 kilograms of grain every year, with no less than 20 kilograms of fine grain.
The second house had no objection. After all, Liu Dazhu was already 61 years old this year, and Mrs. Liu was also 60 years old.
Liu Chuxue quickly wrote the document on the division of the family, and not only did she get the old couple of the Liu family to sign it, but also her uncle and younger uncle. Finally, she asked the branch secretary, village chief, and women's director to be witnesses, and they also signed and sealed it before the matter was finalized.
Mrs. Liu wanted to ask for more, but the village cadres would not indulge her and said directly: "You don't have only Liu Shanliang as your son."
Seeing that things were going as she expected, Liu Chuxue mentioned the centimeters again. The Liu family didn't want to give it, but how could the old branch secretary let them do it? "I will let the accountant calculate the centimeters belonging to the second house separately this year. It's natural to divide it clearly after the division of the family."
In a word, the matter was settled. After all, this was the way it was for all the divisions in the village, and the Liu family was no exception.
Finally, Liu's mother brought up the issue of private plots, and the branch secretary and the village chief said that they would allocate some for them later.
Seeing that things were settled, Liu Chuxue sweetly greeted the uncles, aunts, brothers and sisters-in-law who were watching the excitement outside. Strength lies in numbers, and within half an hour, the second and third rooms had switched houses.
He put the things he was given into the house without bothering to clean them up carefully, and told the youngest Chunxiao to take good care of the house.
Liu's mother ran to ask the second daughter-in-law of the neighboring Li family to help look after their little girl Chunxiao, and then asked the branch secretary to help her get a letter of introduction. Then the three of them hurriedly left.
After walking out of the village for a while, the tense expressions of the mother, daughter and three others finally eased. Liu Xiaqiu sighed softly, "Chuxue, I didn't expect that you were right."
Seeing their bitter and resentful expressions, he said, "Don't be sad. It is a great thing for our Second House to be able to separate now."
Mother Liu knew her daughter had misunderstood, so she explained, "I've been looking forward to this day for a long time. How could I be sad? I'm just worried about your father's leg."
After saying this, the mother and her two daughters couldn't help but quicken their pace.
