Chapter 523: Separate the family

Chapter 523: Family separation

Today, because Gu Jinli was reading medical books at home, Zhu Chahua went to the workshop to fry tofu and did not follow Gu Jinxiu.

Now that they were the only ones at home, Gu Jinxiu said simply: "Sister, I know what you want to ask. I'm not a fool, nor am I blind. I naturally understand."

"However, marriage matters should be the orders of my parents and the words of the matchmaker. I have to abide by this rule. I cannot break the rules just because of someone and make things difficult for the adults of the two families."

Gu Jinli was a little surprised: "Eldest sister knows about Mrs. Robo... Then aren't you angry?"

Gu Jinxiu smiled: "Mother Rob is good friends with my mother. She has watched us grow up. She loves me from the bottom of her heart...I don't know why, but she definitely doesn't look down on me."

Gu Jinli frowned when he heard this and asked: "What does the eldest sister mean now? Do you want to marry Brother Luo Wu?"

Gu Jinxiu's smile remained unchanged: "The eldest sister has said that marriage matters should be decided by the parents. If the parents of both families agree, the eldest sister will naturally be happy. But if the parents of one family don't nod, the eldest sister will not give it to us. Bringing trouble to the family."

She looked down at the picture of rice she was embroidering and said, "Brother Luo Wu is very good. If I can marry him, I will live a good life with him; if not, I will also live a good life of my own."

After hearing this, Gu Jinli was really shocked and a little distressed. Her sister had a delicate heart and had been living for her family.

Seeing her stunned, Gu Jinxiu smiled and patted her forehead and said, "You don't have to worry about me, eldest sister. We are all lucky if we can survive on the road to escape. No matter who we marry, we will definitely not be happy in the future." Difference."

After Gu Jinxiu said these words that were in her heart, she looked at the sky and saw that the sun had set in the west. She put away the embroidery shed and said, "Mom and the third grandma will be back soon. I'll go cook."

He pointed to the soy sauce vat in the yard and said, "Cover your soy sauce to prevent it from being hit by dew and spoiling the taste."

 …

Third Grandpa walked around the end of the village, and finally told several families about the matter, and told them: "If you want to buy, prepare the money, and tomorrow we will go to the county to buy fields together. Brother Wu is As I said, the wealthy households in the county have been eyeing the Zou family’s property and are waiting for the Yamen to sell it.”

The several families were very excited after hearing this, and the most excited one was Mrs. Chen. However, because Sister Mei’s dividends had not been paid for several months, the family spent a lot of money on Sister Mei’s funeral. Now the family has nothing. money.

“Third uncle, if you have a lot of money, can you lend us some money to buy us a few acres of paddy field?”

Mr. Chen didn't dare to think about building a house or shop in the county. He just wanted to buy some paddy fields near the town and grow some valuable rice.

Third Grandpa knew that his family was very poor recently, so he nodded and agreed: "Okay, I will go home later to get you some money."

Seeing that she had borrowed money so easily, Mrs. Chen was so happy that she kept saying good things. She dragged Gu Dewang and Gu Defa over and said, "You two are so stupid, have you taken root? Why don't you come over quickly and thank you Third Grandpa? If not, With the help of your third grandfather, can you eat expensive rice and oily meat? It’s good if you can only eat two handfuls of soybeans."

"Thank you, Third Grandpa." Gu Dewang and Gu Defa hurried over to express their thanks, but they secretly thought: Although Third Grandpa has helped their family a lot, their family's ability to live a life of food and meat depends on Sister Xiaoyu.

Grandpa Third liked these juniors of the same race very much and felt happy when he saw them. After praising the two brothers for a few words, he was about to leave when Gu Dafu and Gu Dagui came back from the workshop with Gu Dexing.

Although Mei Jie'er's death made them sad, life still had to go on, and they had begun to open a shop, study, and work in the workshop. Gu Dafu saw Third Grandpa coming and learned that Chen wanted to borrow money to buy paddy fields, so he said to Third Grandpa: "Third Uncle, I want to separate the family. You must be a witness for our brothers and divide the family." Alright."

Gu Dagui was shocked when he heard this: "Brother, why are you talking about this again? You are living a good life, what family do you belong to?"

Sister Mei's death had just happened not long ago, and the eldest brother was still very sick. If the family were to be separated at this time, and only the eldest brother and the father were left, how would they live?

Gu Dafu was very insistent: "Our parents are no longer here. We should have separated our family when we first settled down, but my brother and sister Renyi were afraid that Sister Mei would not be able to marry her because she was the eldest daughter of a widowed woman, so we didn't." Separate the family... Now that Sister Mei is no longer here, it’s time for the family to be separated, and the eldest brother can’t harm you and your wife because of his own family.”

 Besides, it’s too ugly for him, a widower whose wife has died, to live with his brother and sister-in-law, and there is no need for people to gossip about him.

"Brother Xing has become more sensible recently, and my health is much better than before. We can live a better life and divide the family. After the separation, I will still be your brother. It was you who broke the bones and connected the tendons. My brother, what are you afraid of? It's not like we stopped contacting each other after the separation." Gu Dafu tried to persuade him, and finally lost his temper, so Gu Dagui agreed with red eyes.

The third grandfather was very pleased to see this: "If you brothers can think of each other like this, your parents will be happy if they are alive in heaven."

He then said: "You brothers, please take inventory of the things in your home first. After I come back from the county tomorrow, I will go to the village head He to choose an auspicious day for you and divide your home properly."

Gu Dafu said: "Third uncle, you can always lend the money to the noble family, and it will be regarded as his family's money. The paddy fields bought in the county tomorrow will also be counted as the noble family's."

If there is no separation of families, the paddy fields bought with borrowed money will also be counted as the two brothers. When the time comes, he will also get a share of the paddy fields. It is better to let Dagui's family borrow this money, and then buy all the paddy fields from Dagui's family. of.

Gu Dagui was anxious after hearing this: "Brother, this paddy field is hard to buy, why not..."

"Dagui, please listen to me first." Gu Dafu interrupted Gu Dagui and continued: "The family still has debts of dozens of taels of silver. These debts will be charged to my house and I will pay them back. "

The family is in debt because Sister Mei’s daughter has destroyed the family’s dividends, so she has to borrow money to live.

"My family has been fined several months of dividends. This is Sister Mei's fault, and it should be borne by my family. This year, all the dividends from the workshop will be given to the noble family, which is considered as compensation for the previous time."

When Gu Dagui heard this, he became angry and smashed the pottery pot on the table, which made Mrs. Chen feel distressed: "You don't know what to say? Why did you smash it? This pottery pot costs thirteen Wen!"

 Isn’t thirteen cents money money?

Ms. Chen didn’t want to see the two brothers Gu Dafu and Gu Dagui cry, so she slapped the table and said, "Let’s do this. My family will get two more months of dividends, and the remaining two families will share it equally."

She said to Gu Dafu: "Brother, I know you are ashamed of our family, but you are Dagui's biological eldest brother, and he has always respected you. If you were so clear with him, wouldn't you be stabbing him in the heart? "

  Do you want Gu Jinxiu and Luo Wu to be together? If Gu Jinxiu had not married Luo Wu, her role would have been wonderful. She is suitable for marrying into a wealthy family. But I don’t want to let down Luo Wu’s affection. He has been working hard to marry Gu Jinxiu. If he doesn’t get it, he will regret it for the rest of his life. PS: It’s hot, and the power distribution room in our community, Alexander, had a power outage last night. I don’t know if it will stop in the next few days. I will try to update during the day. I'm really scared of power outages in summer.
