Chapter 18: The family splits up instantly, witnessed by the clan members
Gossip is the most hurtful.
How could a newborn baby endure such slander?
When she grows up and becomes sensible, how can she bear the labels of evil star, jinx and disaster star?
Acting quickly, after everyone in front of the Su family courtyard had dispersed, Su Zhongguo came over with the village party secretary and some surviving elders of the Su family.
Among them was Su Zhongguo’s eldest uncle, his third uncle. His grandfather died of illness in his early years, and his grandmother followed him within two months.
His father was an only child, which was rare in those days, so his father was spoiled since he was a child and did not have a close relationship with his cousins.
After his grandparents passed away, he stopped hanging out with his uncles and aunts, and gradually, his family became the only household in the Su family.
Just before entering the door, the eldest uncle of the Su family stopped Su Zhongguo and said, "Zhongguo, have you thought it through?" If it were another family, he would not agree to split up the family property even if the brothers had not yet married.
But when it comes to his nephew Zhongguo, he wholeheartedly agrees.
But if the family really splits up, I'm afraid a lot of gossips in the village will start to spread rumors again.
"Uncle, I think clearly. Now, just because my father was injured, they put all the blame on my daughter. What fault did she, a newborn baby, have?"
"If there's any fault, it's mine and her mother's fault. We shouldn't have brought her into this world. You should take care of your own child. Sir, I don't want her to be called a disaster or an evil star from the moment she's born."
The pain in his eyes was genuine, and his words chilled everyone to the bone.
Yes, we all make a living by digging in the fields, so of course we know whether there are any dangers in working in the fields. Things like stone knives are everywhere in the stream, so as long as we are careful in our daily lives, we will not get hurt.
It was clearly Manliang's own fault, so why put the blame on a little kid?
well.
"Just think it through. Do you really want nothing? Don't worry, I'm here and I'll divide the property fairly for you." The uncle felt sorry for Zhongguo, and with his status, it was still possible to divide the property fairly.
No matter how dissatisfied Su Manliang was, he had to endure it.
"No need, sir. If you continue to make trouble, my wife won't be able to stay in confinement this year. It's only been a few days and the baby is almost out of milk." Su Zhongguo smiled bitterly and didn't want to argue anymore.
Of course, his daughter-in-law and daughter are one thing, but the real reason is that he wants to distance his family from the real disaster in his second son's family.
The person who harmed his family is a disaster to their family.
The old man patted Su Zhongminguo on the shoulder, sighed, and then walked forward.
The village party secretary also has the surname Su, but he is not from Su Zhongguo's lineage. The village party secretary and their lineage have the same great-grandfather.
It’s not the fifth level yet, but it’s more than three generations.
The Su family's main hall.
When Su Manliang and Xu Qiuniang saw that Su Zhongguo really invited people, their faces looked very ugly.
Fortunately, we had just discussed it and would not give them anything. They were only allowed to take away the things in their own house. Also, they would be given 300 kilograms of food and 100 yuan of filial piety money every year.
One hundred dollars a year is equivalent to more than eight dollars a month.
Although people in the countryside could earn some money at that time, this much in a month was not a lot.
They really dared to speak up.
They caught Su Zhongguo and plucked him like a sheep.
After everyone was seated, Su Manliang pretended to bow to everyone and said, "As the tree grows, the branches branch out; as the sons grow up, the family branches out. Please come and bear witness. My children and grandchildren have grown up, and today we are officially dividing the family."
"Let me first tell you about the division of my family." Su Manliang was not a shameless person, so he told everyone the result of the discussion just now.
Before the village party secretary could speak, Uncle Su got angry and said, "Are you still a human being? He's your own son. Are you really going to give him nothing?"
"Will you not rely on this son in the future? Su Manliang, if you dare to divide it like this, then forget about the grain and filial piety money, he will just marry into the Li family."
"I'm in charge."
When Su Manliang heard this, he thought it was impossible. The son he had raised with great difficulty was not to be raised by anyone else.
"Uncle, I know you love Zhongguo, but you also need to look at my family's situation. The third child is not married yet, and our family conditions are not good. He also needs a house to get married."
When Su Zhongnian, who was sitting nearby, heard that his father was using him as a pretext to deduct his eldest brother's house, he immediately refused to accept it. "Dad, I don't want my eldest brother's house. My eldest brother has done enough for the family over the years."
After hearing this, Xu Qiuniang slapped him without saying anything, "You have no right to speak here. Go back to your room."
The youngest son is just like his older brother in this respect, very stupid.
The beaten Su Zhongnian looked at his elder brother. After seeing his elder brother wink at him, he turned around and went into the house.
"Although Zhongnian is young, what he said is true. Do you two really not want to have this son?"
The elders of the Su family began to argue with Su Manliang and his wife, but unfortunately, no matter what, these selfish parents could not fulfill their wish.
"Uncle, you don't need to say anything. This is the condition. If you want to divide the family, you have to follow my instructions. Otherwise, this family will not be divided."
At this time he realized that the boss was determined to split the family business, otherwise he would not have stood there without saying a word.
Humph, you ungrateful person.
As expected, he takes after his grandparents and goes against them in everything.
There is also a little story here. Su Zhongguo was raised by his grandparents for a period of time.
Su's father had been controlled since he was a child, so he was naturally rebellious. In addition, he was the only son, so he was spoiled since he was young.
He can't stand the slightest bit of grievance, and over time, his temper has become perverse.
In addition, the Su family's grandparents did not like the wife he married, and they made a fuss. He was forced to marry Xu Qiuniang.
They thought that if their son was not good enough, they would raise their grandson, but unfortunately they were unlucky and fell ill.
Coupled with the unfilial behavior of their son and daughter-in-law, they fell ill and died.
Because Su Zhongguo was raised by his grandparents, Su Manliang and Xu Qiuniang disliked him since he was a child.
In their eyes, Su Zhongfu, the second son, is the eldest son.
This is also the main reason why the eldest son is not loved but other children are loved.
Uncle Su and the others looked at each other and knew that Su Manliang was determined to split the family business this way. They didn't say anything more because Zhongguo himself was willing.
Under the witness of the branch secretary, a document of division of the family was written in triplicate, one for each family and one kept in the village.
Su Zhongguo also agreed to the 100 yuan per year, and he would also be willing to give up 200 yuan.
In this way, the Su family separated Su Zhongguo and his wife, along with their four children.
Li's mother was in the next room, hugging her daughter and crying.
She cried for her daughter's miserable life, having to meet such an in-law family.
She cried again, saying that her daughter was blessed and had her own family, so she would no longer have to suffer from her mother-in-law.
After Su Zhongguo sent everyone away, he went straight into the house to talk to his wife and mother-in-law about dividing the family property.
"I divided the family, but I didn't take anything. Guixiang, you won't blame me, will you?" He was a little nervous, afraid that his wife would feel it was unfair.
"Don't blame me, it's good to divide the family, it's good to divide it." Li Guixiang stopped crying, and looked at the family division documents, she smiled happily.
"So where are we going next?" This is what she cares about most.
