Rather than wasting time and effort on those things at this juncture, it would be better to continue building their wooden houses.
Anyway, it will be too hot to stay at home, so we'll have to live underground.
I want to rebuild the stone house, but I'll wait until after this disaster.
The most urgent task is to quickly build the house, and then find a way to store food and water.
Another thing is to clear land and plant drought-resistant, high-yield crops...
Perhaps it was this topic that made the Chi family feel powerless.
Therefore, they remained silent for the rest of the time.
When Chi Yu put down her chopsticks, no one at the two tables in the main room spoke.
Just as she took her son from her second sister-in-law's arms and was about to leave, Chi Mu, who had been wanting to talk to her, called her to the backyard.
"Aunt, I have something to tell you. Well, I should say I want to ask for your opinion."
Chi Yu, who was already standing in the backyard, could tell from his expression that it was because of Shen Yejun.
"Okay, go ahead!"
Seeing her knowing expression, Chi Mu didn't hide anything.
He simply repeated what Shen Yejun had told him.
Of course, the key point is the matter of his parents dividing the family property after they turn forty-five.
Chi Yu lowered his head and pondered for a moment before revealing his true thoughts.
"Wood, I don't think this is a big problem."
There's an old saying that a tree branches out as it grows up, and children separate from their families when they grow up.
If all three of you brothers are married and have children, you should indeed live separately.
As for your parents, we'll see how you discuss it later—whether they'll take turns living with you or want to live on their own.
In my opinion, it would be better to wait until you three brothers get married and then divide the family property.
You build these houses for yourselves.
Your parents will stay in the old house with me, just like your uncle and aunt.
The old house was large and had many rooms. But the house you rebuilt is not only made of wood, but it's also hot in summer and cold in winter.
I want to wait until your house is all built, then we can use it as our new home.
Chi Mu thought that the eldest son's family, which hadn't separated from the main family, wasn't much different from the one that had.
With his aunt not taking charge, the eldest and second eldest brothers still ate from the same pot.
But when they make money, they either split it 50/50 or each person saves their own.
He didn't know how to respond, so after thinking for a moment, he asked, "Auntie, aren't you going to marry Uncle too?"
After you get married, will you continue to live in the old house? Won't you move to the county town?
If my aunt gets married and leaves, it just doesn't feel right for the six old men—my eldest uncle, second uncle, and father—to live here.
It's as if the brothers, after getting married, found their elders useless and abandoned them.
Although his uncles and father are still very young and at the prime of their lives.
But the villagers don't think that way; they only see what they see.
If their aunt is here, then it's fine for them to live here.
At least the villagers wouldn't think too much about it, and the eight cousins would have a reason to come over often.
The wife won't have any complaints while she's helping her parents with chores.
Otherwise, in the current situation, if they hastily get married, what if their wives can't stand them being nice to their sister-in-law?
Chi Yu had no idea what Chi Mu was thinking.
Hearing this, she shook her head: "I won't go for now! Knowing that there will be disasters and food and water shortages in the city, why would I go looking for trouble?"
Wouldn't it be better to stay in Chijia'ao?
It's a peaceful place, the people are united, and there are mountains and trees everywhere.
