When Zhang Tiantian and Gu Ranran returned home, everyone had already left work and the team leader had also returned from selling ginseng. The team leader said, "Tiantian, Ranran, come and sit down. The boss is going to call the branch secretary. Please ask the branch secretary to come and be a witness. When the branch secretary arrives, we will start dividing the property."
"Mom and Dad, don't be sad. I'm serious. Your daughter will take care of you in your old age."
The captain said happily, "My dear daughter, as long as you are well, mom and dad will be very happy. It's okay, mom and dad are not sad. Since we can't live together, we can live apart. Tiantian, don't worry, mom and dad will be with you. Even if you get married, mom and dad will still support you."
"When I get married, my parents will come and live with me. After Lu Hai gets married, his family will also split up, and Lu Hai's parents will definitely not live with us."
"Mom and Dad won't go live with you anymore. If you make something delicious, you can invite us over to eat."
"Great, Lu Jiang can not only hunt but also cook."
Before the team leader could reply, Zhang Tiantian's elder brother came with the branch secretary.
"Old Zhang, why are you suddenly splitting up? Hasn't your family always been doing well?"
"Isn't it true that Tiantian already has a fiancé? The sons are all married and the grandchildren are all grown up. Our mission is accomplished."
We are old and can no longer take care of so many things. Let the children take care of themselves. We have fulfilled our responsibilities and it is time to enjoy our peaceful life this year.
"Yes, I've grown old before I knew it. I can't keep up with the pace of the young people. It's time to let go and let the children make their own decisions. How do you want to divide it? Let's make a quick decision. Old Zhang, you tell me, I'll write it down first. I'll make five copies later, one for the team and one for each of your families."
"First, the house. As it stands now, what you live in belongs to you. Tiantian's is hers, and it will be hers after she gets married. Your mother and I built this house, so I have the final say. Your mother and I will live in this room, and after we pass away, whoever's family handles the funeral will own it.
Secondly, food was distributed according to work points, with each family as the unit. This was fair; what you earn is what you get.
Finally, there's the money and the bills. Our family has a total of 2,000 yuan, 500 yuan each, and your mother and I each get 500 yuan. As for the bills, we'll split them equally. Don't think your mother and I are hiding any money. First, calculate how much money you've earned and how many work points you've earned. Money won't come if you don't earn it.
The kitchen belongs to me and your mother. If you want to cook, you have to figure it out on your own. The pots, pans, and seasonings in the kitchen also belong to us and your mother.
We have separated, but you can still eat with us for one day tomorrow. I will buy some kitchen supplies tomorrow and cook for myself.
There are two old hens at home. Your mother said she wants them, so give them to her.
If you have any objections to this division, please speak up now. If I hear anyone gossiping about it later, I will immediately cut off all ties with them."
Every family happily took the divided money, and no one had any objections.
"Old Zhang, you haven't told me how to support yourself in old age yet?"
"We are fine now, we will talk about it later when we can't move."
"No, let's just follow the general pension standard. How about you give 5 yuan a year for pension from now on? Any objections? Since no one has said anything, I'll just take it as your consent."
Zhang Tiantian's second sister-in-law walked over to Gu Ranran, pulled Gu Ranran and asked, "Gu Zhiqing, we have separated. Which family do you want to eat with? Eat with ours. I'm a very good cook."
Looking at her pretentious sister-in-law, Gu Ranran felt disgusted and spoke directly.
"Sister-in-law, I'm sorry. I came to the captain's house for dinner because Tiantian is my good sister. Of course I followed Tiantian wherever she ate.
By the way, I did give you 50 kilograms of corn, 50 kilograms of sweet potatoes, and 50 kilograms of potatoes. Before you distribute the food, please remember to divide my food among them.
Also, I paid 60 yuan for living expenses. Please refund me the money. I'm not a stingy person. You are my good sister's family. The days I eat here count as a month. Just refund me 55 yuan. I have already refunded 14 yuan.
Zhang Tiantian's second sister-in-law wanted to take advantage of the situation but failed, and she even had to pay 14 yuan, which made her very sad.
"Gu Zhiqing, you don't have to return the living expenses you paid. Besides, you're so rich. Why bother with such a small amount?"
Gu Ranran didn't expect her second sister-in-law to be so shameless, so she said bluntly: "Then I will eat at her house from now on, and I won't pay for living expenses anymore. I will eat there for a year."
Zhang Tiantian's sister-in-law anxiously refused: "No, you don't pay for your living expenses. You can't eat at my house."
"Second sister-in-law, I don't eat much, I don't have a big appetite, why do you care about the food? You took all my living expenses, what should I eat? You took my living expenses and didn't give me food.
I have never seen such a shameless person. Why don’t you return my living expenses? If you don’t, I will call my brother and let him know that someone is defrauding military families of their money.
Zhang Tiantian's three sisters-in-law quickly handed 14 yuan to Gu Ranran, Gu Ranran handed it to Zhang Tiantian, and Zhang Tiantian provocatively handed the money to Zhang's mother.
The expressions on the faces of Zhang Tiantian’s three sisters-in-law were very interesting, especially Zhang Tiantian’s second sister-in-law, who glared at Gu Ranran and Zhang Tiantian fiercely.
Gu Ranran would not give up the opportunity to deal with Zhang Tiantian's second sister-in-law, because she called Zhang Tiantian a money-loser. Looking at Zhang Tiantian's second sister-in-law, she asked nervously: "Second sister-in-law, you are so scary. Are you going to kill me? I am just taking back my living expenses, not robbing your money.
