Chapter 212 213. A chill on the spine
Gu Lejia had already regretted it when he was in Haicheng. If he had not been so impulsive at that time, would he not have to face all this today?
Xie Ruyi snorted, "You have great ideas and they are correct. Your parents can't control you or help you now. Besides, you two are still young and healthy. As long as you work hard, you will always be able to support the family.
"Look at your grandmother. She separated the family property as soon as she got married, and everyone else is doing well. Why is it that your father and uncle are all doing well, but you are having trouble?"
Gu Lejia felt dizzy, "But at least give us a break. I haven't even sat down to have a sip of water since I came home, and you want to drive me out. Mom, are you still the mother who loves me?
Dad, don't stand there without saying anything. I'm not saying that we don't want to split up the family business. Can it be postponed?
If this gets out, people who don’t know about it might think I’ve done something outrageous.”
Gu Yuanjin, "…your mother has already asked your uncle to notify everyone, how about dividing this house today?"
When Gu Lejia heard this, he felt completely deflated. His father was still like this, always obeying his mother in everything. But this was a big matter of dividing the family.
"What about my second brother? He is older than me, but he also did not divide the family property." Gu Lejia pointed at Gu Ledi, "If we want to divide the family property, we should divide it together."
This incident reminded Xie Ruyi. She grabbed a broom from the corner and slapped it towards Gu Le's family. "It is said that there is order of seniority. Your two brothers haven't even started a family yet, and you are still here to pick a fight."
Gu Lejia couldn't stand it after being hit twice, and began to run around the yard, "Mom, wasn't I at home at that time?"
"Not at home? Are you kidding me? You ran into your seventh uncle, how could he not tell you about the situation at home?
I think you are possessed by a ghost, and you have forgotten who you are. How dare you make excuses for me here? "Xie Ruyi raised their three sons and had already figured out their routines. The broom could hit him every time.
"Eldest brother's wife, if you want to teach your son a lesson, please wait until later. The clan members will be here soon. At least give the child some face." Li Cuicui saw the farce from afar and quickly spoke out to stop it.
Seeing the savior, Gu Lejia immediately ran over and hid behind the old lady, "Grandma, my mother almost beat me to death, I don't want to split the family."
Li Cuicui dodged to the side and said, "You deserve to be beaten to death. Your mother at home is always nagging at you guys, but you are so good that you can even bypass your mother in such an important matter as getting married.
This is because your mother is kind-hearted. If it were me, humph!"
Gu Lejia felt a chill on his back and no longer dared to hide behind Li Cuicui. He sneaked to the door, thinking about which way to run next.
Seeing that his mind and actions were exactly the same as when he was a child, Xie Ruyi threw away the broom in annoyance, "Mom, you're here.
After much thought, I decided to follow your example and separate them early, so I can have less worries."
Li Cuicui pursed her lips. She didn't mean to have no worries. It was just that she had so many sons living together, and it was tiring to have to argue with them all day long.
The eldest son's wife has two sons around her, so she doesn't have to worry about these things at all.
After all, it was all about money. But they couldn't just leave the couple empty-handed, otherwise the villagers would gossip about them.
Li Cuicui explained her purpose, "We have to give you something when the family is divided. I didn't treat you badly back then."
Xie Ruyi smiled bitterly, "We just built two rooms and bought some pots and pans. Everything is here. How do you think we should divide it?"
"Then where are you going to let them live? Even if we split them up, we have to give them a place to stay."
Xie Ruyi had already made a plan, pointing to the straw shed where the firewood was stored, "It just so happens that we have almost used up all the firewood in the winter, and now the weather is warm, we can simply clean it up and make do for a while."
Besides, we have already gone through such difficult days of discussion, so there is nothing wrong with this.
Li Cuicui looked at Gu Lejia who was hiding at the door. As a grandmother, she could only help so much. If she interfered more, it would be annoying.
As parents, they were determined to divide the family, and no one else could persuade them.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, a document of division of the family property was placed in front of Gu Le's family.
"Except for a few broken farm tools and two months' worth of food, you have nothing else? How can this be considered a division of the family?" Song Xiuniang's expression changed instantly. "You are not leaving us a way to survive."
"It's not long before the spring plowing season. You should be diligent and take good care of the few acres of land given to you at the end of the village. You will have a new harvest in a few months." The moment Gu Shulin knew that Gu Le's family had returned, he had already divided the land among them.
"Then what's the place to live? Just a thatched hut?"
"Mrs. Le, it's good to have such a thatched hut. A few months ago, when we arrived here, it was still a wasteland." Dai Ling shook her head. "Young people just don't know how to be satisfied."
“…”
No matter how much he resisted or refuted, Gu Lejia still put his fingerprints on the separation document.
Seeing that the matter was over, Gu Wenheng took Jin Qianqian and prepared to leave with his clansmen.
Unexpectedly, Song Xiuniang rushed to them at this time, "Uncle Qi, Aunt Qi, please wait."
Jin Qianqian, "Please call me Mrs. Jin. After all, my sister-in-law hasn't had tea with you, the daughter-in-law, so we can't call you the wrong name."
Xie Ruyi's eyes lit up and she felt that Jin Qianqian was particularly pleasing to the eye today.
Song Xiuniang then remembered that from the beginning to the end, no one reminded her to serve tea, and now her position was awkward.
Jin Qianqian didn't want to hear what she said, nor was she curious. Anyway, it must be nothing good that they came to her at this time. She and Gu Wenheng walked past Xiuniang tacitly, and did not forget to tell a few jokes to the aunts and grandmas in the tribe.

Go to Beijing
Hua Shunming looked at the letter in his hand and suddenly slapped the table, "Okay."
Ye Yi knelt on the ground respectfully, holding a box in his hands.
"Little Sanzi, bring it here!"
Le San walked over to take the box and carefully placed it on the desk. "Your Majesty, do you want to open it?"
Hua Shunming raised his hand, and Le San carefully opened the box, only to see a box full of banknotes.
Hua Shunming touched his chin and said, "I heard from your master that Gu Wenheng still has the secret recipe for soap. How much is the profit?"
Ye Yi, "This soap is relatively cheap, not as good as this glass.
Scholar Gu also mentioned that the soap and the secret recipe of the soap were Madam Gu's dowry, so it has always been handled by Madam Gu. "
"That's a pity," Hua Shunming asked Le San to cover the box, "Did your master say when he would be back?"
Ye Yi, "It will probably take some time. A few barbarians have placed an order for a batch of goods with our prince. The prince is afraid that they can't handle it, so he is staying there to take charge."
