Chapter 338: Pretending to be a Good Person (Page 1/2)
Huo Li saw that everyone was there, except for the two granddaughters who were getting married, everyone who should have come was there.
So he stood up, took out a long key from his pocket and opened the mahogany box. He took out the passbook first and handed it to Huo Junshan.
"Junshan, please let Junlin, Junheng, and Junmo take a look at my savings over the years. Otherwise, they will accuse me of being partial and leaving all the money to Qingci."
Huo Junshan smiled and said, "Dad, I don't need to look at the passbook. I know you've been frugal and saved all your money over the years. It's my mom who's been unfilial. She didn't let you enjoy life, and she even caused you trouble."
"Okay, enough compliments, just take a look at how much money I've saved over the years."
Huo Junshan took a look and found that the old man had actually saved 17,800 yuan, and had withdrawn it all.
Looking at the data above, Huo Junshan felt a little uncomfortable. The old man took out all the money. Could it be that his health is failing? No wonder the old man asked everyone to celebrate the New Year together this year.
Huo Li was speechless when he saw tears in his son's eyes during the Chinese New Year, as if he was going to see him off to the end.
"I'm not dead, why are you crying? Look at what you've done."
Xiao Ya tugged at Huo Junshan, "Junshan, give the passbook to my fourth brother and the others!"
Huo Junshan handed the passbook to the other brothers. Yang Huiling squeezed over to take a look and took a deep breath. Oh my god, the old man had saved almost 18,000 yuan.
How should the money be divided and how much will their family get?
No matter what, if her father-in-law distributes the money unfairly, she will definitely stand up and object.
"Okay, you all see this money above! That's all my savings over the years.
I don’t know how long I can live, so in order to prevent them from fighting over the money, I plan to divide the family business today.
Qingci is the eldest grandson, so I gave this yard to him and not to you.
I know you have objections, so I plan to give each of you four siblings 3,500 yuan as money to buy a house."
Yang Huiling and Du Xiaojuan were really excited now. Although they didn't get the courtyard house, they didn't expect that their family would get 3,500 yuan.
Du Xiaojuan looked at Huo Junmo's family, then winked at Yang Huiling. Yang Huiling knew that Du Xiaojuan wanted her to be the first to take action.
There was no other way. Now that their interests were at stake, she had to stand up.
"Dad, our family will get 3,500 yuan. Will my sister-in-law get that much too after she gets married?"
Huo Junmo knew that her two sisters-in-law had objections to her dividing the money, but even if she knew, she would not be so saintly as to stand up and say that she did not want the money.
With this money, their family's life will become more and more prosperous.
Huo Junmo didn't say anything. He Zhongkang wanted to open his mouth, but was stopped by his son.
Seeing that no one said anything, Huo Li snorted coldly, "What? My Jun Mo is married off, so she is no longer my daughter?"
Yang Huiling smiled awkwardly, "Dad, I didn't say my sister-in-law isn't your daughter. I have no objection to a married daughter getting a share of the money, but I just want to see if you can get less. You still have so many grandchildren."
Du Xiaojuan agreed, "Yes, Dad, a daughter who is married off is like spilled water. You gave your sister-in-law a dowry when she got married.
If you divide up the family property, you can give some to my sister-in-law. Three thousand five hundred is a bit too much."
Huo Li sneered, "Then tell me, how much should I give Jun Mo?"
Du Xiaojuan smiled and said, "Any amount of 1,150 yuan is fine."
Huo Li looked at Yang Huiling, "Old Fourth's family, what do you think?"
When Yang Huiling heard her father-in-law ask her to express her opinion, she smiled so hard that all the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes came out. "I think your idea is good. The remaining two thousand can be divided among the grandchildren. Qingci has taken the house, so there is no need to divide it."

Huo Qingci and Lin Man smiled at each other. Money was like a magic mirror that could reveal whether someone was a human or a ghost.
Huo Li then asked Huo Junshan and Xiao Ya, "What do you two think?"
Huo Junshan said, "Dad, let's do as you say. Jun Mo is our sister. If she lives a good life, we, as her brothers, will be happy for her."
Xiao Ya agreed, "Dad, Junshan and I both support your decision."
Huo Junlin and Huo Junheng said in unison, "Dad, we will listen to you. As long as my sister is doing well, we should worry less."
Huo Junmo smiled and said, "Thank you, Dad, my brother and his wife for your concern. I don't mind if you don't give me any of the money."
Yang Huiling cursed in her heart. Her sister-in-law was just pretending. If she really didn't want the money, she wouldn't have come to share it today.
Seeing that no one objected, Huo Li took out four large red envelopes wrapped in red paper from the box and gave one to each of his three remaining sons.
After handing out the red envelopes, he told them: "Take this money and save it first. When you have a chance in the future, each of you can use it to buy a small courtyard.
The house allocated by the company belongs to the state. When you stop working there, the state can take it back if it wants. The house you buy yourself is yours and you can pass it on to your children and grandchildren.
Huo Junlin asked, "Dad, there's no house to sell now, right?"
"You can ask around on your own. If someone wants to sell the ancestral house, you can buy it if you can."
After Huo Li finished speaking, he picked up the fourth big red envelope and handed it to He Zhongkang, "Zhongkang, I hand Jun Mo over to you. You must treat her well in the future."
"Dad, please don't worry, I will take good care of Jun Mo."
Huo Li waved his hand and stopped talking. He stood up and took out all the remaining red envelopes from the box.
"Including the pension I received last month, I still have 4,100 yuan left. I have five grandsons, four granddaughters, two grandsons-in-law, and one granddaughter-in-law.
If each person gets 300 yuan, that's 3,600 yuan, and the remaining 500 yuan will be given to Ningning and Anan.
Ningning is the older brother, so get 300 yuan, and An'an is the younger brother, 200 yuan. Consider this money as my New Year's red envelopes for you."
Lin Man was afraid that her grandfather would give the last 500 yuan to the two brothers An An and Ning Ning, each of which would get 250 yuan.
Fortunately, he said Ningning was the older brother so he got 300 yuan, and Anan was the younger brother so he got 200 yuan.
Yang Huiling didn't expect that the remaining money would be divided equally among her grandchildren. Since there were many children in her family, the four children could get another 1,200 yuan, so their family got more than anyone else.
No, it was the third brother’s family that benefited. His two grandsons took away another 500 yuan, which was 200 yuan more than their family.
The most unlucky one is the fifth family. They only have two children, and one less child means they get 300 yuan less.
In this day and age, it is a blessing to have more children. Look, their family is lucky enough to have them.
Huo Li handed out red envelopes, looked around, and said, "Is this how you divide the remaining money? Do you have any objections?"
Huo Qingci and Lin Man took the lead and said, "Grandpa, we have no objection."
Others followed suit, "We have no objection either."
Huo Li added, "This money is for grandchildren and great-grandchildren. You as parents cannot take it. Ningning, come here and take your red envelope."
Huo Yining blinked his cute deer eyes, "Grandpa, are you calling me?"
"Well, great grandfather is giving you New Year's money in advance, do you want it?"
"Yes, I want money to buy a beautiful dress for my mother, a toy for my brother, and some delicious food for myself."
Huo Qingci smiled and said, "You little bastard, don't you want to buy something for your dad?"
Huo Yining shook his head and said, "Dad can make money on his own."
