Liu Lingling and Liu Mei had no objections, and of course, Chi Ye and Chi Deng did as well.
"Um!"
"Alright, your eldest son's family can handle it themselves. As for the grain, it's all in the cellar; we'll move it together later."
"Of course, if you only want to move a little bit, you can store the rest with your aunt."
"good!"
After discussing the eldest son's family, it was Chi Erxiong's turn to speak for his own family. He then asked his wife to speak.
Huang Dani looked at Chi Qing and said, "Qing, did Qiaoya say when she's coming?"
“Mother, I spoke to her, and she said that everything is up to Father and Mother to decide.”
However, dividing the family property is a big deal; she'll be over in a bit.
"Alright! I'll go first. Our family has accumulated some wealth over the years thanks to your aunt's good fortune."
The total amount of silver was thirty taels and six hundred and thirty-eight coins.
Your father and I will keep these thirty-eight coins for ourselves, and we will take out thirty taels and six hundred coins to divide among you brothers.
However, since we lent your aunt money last year to buy a mule, and now that we are dividing the family property, your aunt has repaid the money.
Your aunt said that since we're dividing the family property, she'll add some money for your small household expenses, so the eldest, second, and third wives will each receive ten taels.
Therefore, this is how I calculated the money.
When Aqing married Qiaoya, he gave three taels of silver as a betrothal gift, plus various other dowry items and wedding favors.
Ah Qing, I'll give you five taels, is that too much to ask?
Chi Qing nodded. Putting everything else aside, just considering the clothes Qiaoya was wearing and the gifts sent to Qiaoya's family during the New Year, five taels really wasn't much.
"Alright, since you agree to the five taels of silver, then Aping and Akang will also need five taels for their marriage."
That means I will directly divide the ten taels that your aunt just gave me between Aping and Aqing.
The rest of what our family owns will be divided among the three families. That means each of you brothers will receive ten taels and two hundred coins.
As for the grain, you brothers know how much we have, and we'll divide it into three parts.
"You built this house yourselves; your father and I didn't participate much. You can divide it among yourselves."
When Qiaoya arrived, she overheard all of this. She stood next to Chi Qing and asked him in a low voice.
Finally, after Chi Qing explained it to her softly, she had no objections.
Her in-laws have been very kind to her.
Even though she spent every day at her parents' home, busy taking care of her younger siblings, her in-laws didn't say anything.
Of course, even after the family split up, she didn't dare suggest that Chi Qing move in with her younger brother and sister.
After all, Chi Qing is the eldest son of the second wife.
If she really did that, then Chi Qing would truly become a live-in son-in-law in other people's eyes.
Even if her in-laws don't say anything, she'll still be cursed to death by the Chi family.
And Aqing will become an unfilial son in the eyes of others, unable to straighten his back for the rest of his life.
Besides, her brother Qing is a filial son, and he does everything according to her wishes.
If she really makes that suggestion, she might get dumped by Aqing!
Knowing what was going on, Qiaoya planned to move her things back home after she returned.
Otherwise, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to always stay at her parents' house.
Even though the two families aren't very far apart!
Huang Dani had no idea what Qiaoya was thinking.
After she finished speaking, she looked at Wang Yunjuan and saw that she had no objections and even had a look of satisfaction in her eyes, so she breathed a sigh of relief.
