The brother and sister thanked Lao Hong and went to Lao Xie’s ancestral home.
This so-called ancestral house is actually just a brick house that looks bigger than other houses in the village.
This was rebuilt with money paid by Xie Dahong for his parents after he became successful.
Unfortunately, his parents died within two years of living there.
There are six brothers and sisters in the Xie family, and they have already separated.
Except for the second son of the Xie family who went into the sea and disappeared when he was very young, the eldest and third sons all live in this village.
The fourth and fifth children are girls and are married.
The sixth child is Xie Dahong, who joined the army when he was a teenager and made a name for himself.
The ancestral house of the Xie family is now occupied by Xie Changgui, the third son of the Xie family.
Just now, when Xie Changgui heard that it was Xie Yuanchao from Xie Dahong's family who came back, he was worried that it was Lao Liu who came back to ask him for the house.
Halfway through the run, he came to his senses, "Why should I run? Even if Lao Liu comes back, does he, as a leader, have the nerve to kick out his own brother?"
After realizing this, Xie Changgui did not go to the village entrance to greet people, but strolled slowly to the old man's house.
Xie Changshou, the eldest son of the Xie family, is nearly sixty years old and looks like an honest farmer.
As soon as he saw his third brother sneak into the yard, he picked up a carrying pole from the side and wanted to beat him.
"You shameless bastard, I've already told you that if you dare to step into my yard again, I'll beat you up once!"
Xie Changgui was also a man in his fifties. He was so frightened by his elder brother's carrying pole that he retracted his feet and did not dare to step into the courtyard.
He shouted across the threshold: "Brother, put down the carrying pole, I have something serious to discuss with you.
I just saw Lao Liu's family coming back from the village entrance."
When Boss Xie heard this, he stopped the carrying pole in mid-air, threw it aside, and said nothing more.
He sat on an old stone mill on the ground, took out the pipe from his arms and was about to look for matches when Xie Changgui took out matches, ran in and lit one for his elder brother.
"Brother, why don't you speak?
Now that Lao Liu’s family is back, we have to let them stay, right?
Do you want to live in your house or mine?"
When he heard that his brother had returned home, Xie Changshou showed no joy at all.
"You are occupying someone else's house, so you must be living in your home. My home is small and can't accommodate you."
Xie Changgui was unhappy and said, "Why don't you care? I gave you fifty dollars for occupying the house."
When the family business was divided, the eldest and third sons of the Xie family actually had their own houses.
It was originally agreed that Xie Dahong would rebuild the ancestral house for his parents, and after his parents passed away, it would belong to Xie Dahong.
Xie Dahong felt that although he would not come back to live now, he might want to return to his hometown to live after retirement, so he agreed to pay for the renovation of the ancestral house.
After his parents passed away, Xie Dahong made an agreement with the villagers, asking everyone to help take care of the house and stay there when he went home to pay homage to his parents.
As a result, within two years, when he came back, the house was occupied by the third son of the Xie family.
The third son of the Xie family said that his son had grown up and wanted to divide the family property, and he had no house.
He moved in himself, which was equivalent to helping Xie Dahong look after the house.
He left his own house to his son.
When Xie Dahong comes back, he will vacate the space.
Xie Dahong originally thought that since they were all family, it would be fine if he didn't live there himself and let his brother live there.
As a result, when he came back two years later, he noticed that something didn't taste right.
There is no place for him to live in this house.
Looking at Xie Changgui's behavior, he has completely taken over the house.
Their whole family has already moved in, and they sold their house to a person from outside the area who settled there.
Xie Dahong was very angry and had a big fight with Xie Changgui.
Unexpectedly, even the eldest brother Xie spoke up for Xie Changgui, saying that this was originally left by their parents and that the three brothers all had a share.
Xie felt that the third brother's family was in financial difficulty, so he volunteered to let the third brother live there.
But in fact, in private, Boss Xie accepted fifty yuan from Boss Xie.
Although Xie Changhong was angry, he was too embarrassed to fight with his brothers for the property, so he simply never returned to Xiejia Village.
I have to say that although Xie Dahong is very successful outside, he is indeed not good at handling family relationships.
Before setting off, Xie Dahong told Xie Wan and his sister the origin of this.
Xie Wan found it funny when she heard it, and she asked Xie Dahong: "Dad, do you still want that house back?"
Xie Dahong said: "It doesn't matter, the houses in the village are not worth much.
It seems unlikely that our family will be able to go back and live there now.
Just give it to them.
But I am just angry that your uncle and third uncle plotted against me."
Xie Wan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, Dad, I'll go back and help you vent this anger.
As for the houses, it depends on the situation. If they are nice, we will give them the houses. If they are rude, we will take them back. We would rather give them houses than beggars!"
Xie Dahong was still a little hesitant, "Isn't this bad? If your grandparents knew about this, they would be sad."
Xie Wan nodded, "Don't worry, I know my limits."
So, Xie Wan came prepared this time.
When she and her two siblings Xie Yuanchao and Xie Xing arrived at the door of the ancestral home, they saw that the door was ajar, so they went straight in.
A rural woman in her fifties was drawing water from the well when she saw two adults and a child suddenly barging in. She asked unhappily:
"Who are you? Why are you entering someone else's yard without knocking?"
Xie Wan asked with a smile: "You are Third Aunt Wang Cuihua, right?"
Wang Cuihua looked at the person in front of her, but couldn't remember who he was.
