Chapter 82 I just don't know
The villagers hurriedly sent people to check. Although Yuan Xu's leg was fine, he couldn't walk because of the pain.
Old man Yuan was directly crushed and passed out. Among the people who were sent by the villagers to press him, the pain woke him up.
As soon as the man opened his eyes, he pointed to the four in-laws, "You, you did it on purpose."
"We didn't do it on purpose, and we don't know who pushed us. I'm sorry, my in-laws."
Old man Yuan knew that if his mouth continued to be stubborn, although their lives would be safe, they would definitely lose an arm or a leg.
This group of people came here just to separate the family for their daughter.
The onlookers knew in their hearts, but the old man Yuan's family was too unpopular, and no one turned to them.
When the village chief asked them again, "Is this family divided?"
Old man Yuan closed his eyes, gritted his teeth and squeezed out a word, "Score!"
The head of the Yuan family's big house said: "The money given to you by the fifth child is for you to take care of yourself. We don't want to divide it. You just divide the money we have given to the public in these years. Just divide the land."
"Why, the money is ours."
"The money was earned by our brothers. If the children and adults in the family are sick, you don't take a dime out. We eat bad food, and you eat good food. We haven't spent a penny in the public. The money must be divided. .”
"I just don't care, what can you do with me?"
It’s really healed. The scar has forgotten the pain, and the pain in the leg has not passed yet, and Yuan Xu still can’t see the form clearly.
I don't know who came again, and the people around immediately jumped on Yuan Xu again, overwhelming the two of them again.
This time, the two screamed, clutching their arms and screaming. Old Man Yuan and Yuan Xu clearly felt that someone hit them with something.
Now the two of them were completely frightened. They looked at the four sons with murderous intent in their eyes.
"Divide, divide, the silver is divided,"
He quickly responded and stopped shouting.
The village chief asked them to follow them to the kang cabinet in the house to get the silver they had saved for many years.
Except for the one hundred taels of silver given by the Yuan family, the two of them actually saved no less than six hundred taels of silver.
The land deed is 50 mu. The village chief swallowed his saliva looking at these family properties, and thought to himself, these two old things are really good, and they have praised so many family properties for so many years.
"Fifty acres of land, divided into five parts, ten acres for a family, six hundred taels of silver, one hundred taels for a family of four sons, and the rest for the elderly. From now on, each family will be given 100 Wen per month. A suit of clothes, plus three hundred cash for the festival, usually three meals a day, the four of you discussed taking turns to deliver the meals, so that the elderly must not go hungry."
"What we eat, what they eat, we don't abuse, but we don't eat and drink all day long."
"This is natural."
"The village chief's division is fair, we have no objection, let's divide it like this."
"Okay, that's it."
The village chief made the decision, and the old couple of the Yuan family didn't resist. Seeing the money they had saved for so many years being divided, their hearts were bleeding.
Today, the four sons are determined to separate their families. Even if they sue the mayor and the yamen, it is estimated that the sons will also separate their families. It may be yourself.
Finally, he wasn't so stupid that he wanted money rather than his life. This family is finally divided.
Once the family is separated, the two old members of the Yuan family will no longer have the stamina to make a fuss, just like a deflated ball.
They have five sons, and all five sons have separated from them and hate them. They are ruthless, and their son is now learning to be more ruthless than them.
With the separation documents, the sons will give them pension money every month and cook for them regularly. They can't find anything if they want to make trouble.
Yuan Jiaqi didn't know, even if he knew, he would only applaud.
Fortunately, the two old people are not very old, and their bodies are strong. They have more than two hundred taels of silver in their hands and ten acres of land, which can be rented out without planting them themselves.
But I don’t have to worry about eating and drinking. If I want to improve my life, I can just spend my own money. Nothing will happen for the time being.
In Tianshui Town, there are no these families to make trouble, and the people's life is very peaceful.
On the side of Zhennan Archway, the ground was broken on the 26th of the first lunar month, and a few firecrackers were set off for this purpose.
They first surrounded the 35-acre homestead, and Qiao Mai also planned to rent out the remaining 65 acres.
She asked the mayor to find three honest tenant farmers, and rented out 60 acres of wheat fields for a period of five years. The row of five acres of land near the back wall of the house was reserved. She planned to use it for planting greenhouses in winter and summer. Plant some rare fruits and vegetables, so the five acres are also enclosed in the house.
There are two crops a year, and she only needs 300 catties of grain per mu of land, which also includes a grain tax of 100 catties per mu, and they get as much as they grow, which is their net income.
The rent is lower than the market rent. The three tenant farmers are very happy. If one mu of land charges an extra 150 catties, the 20 mu will be 3000 catties, and the two seasons will be 6000 catties, which is enough for a family to chew for a year.
If the service is good, you can also charge more. The 60 acres of Qiao's family is close to the water source, which saves the trouble of the tenant farmers.
Whenever he had time, Qiao Mai took Linger to the homestead to watch.
Almost every day, dozens of workers didn’t stop for a moment. When Qiao Mai was in a good mood, he would go to the bun shop and ask them to deliver buns and soup to improve the workers’ meal.
The workers all praised the master for his kindness, and Qiao Mai's reputation was even better now.
Not only the people in Tianshui Town praised it, but even people from other places gave it a thumbs up when they mentioned it.
On February 2, Long raised his head. This day is Linger's birthday. Qiao Mai didn't say anything to anyone. He made her a small cake at noon for the noodles he let her eat in the morning, and made her some edible ones at night. dishes.
One-year-old Linger can already eat.
Xiao Shou Xing sat in front of the kang table and looked decent, while Qiao Mai was feeding her fish.
Linger clapped her little hands happily, and a sound suddenly came out of her little mouth.
"Daddy!"
Qiao Mai heard a black thread, "First call mother rich first, first call father poor half street, you girl, how can you call father first."
"whee."
"Call mother, otherwise I won't cook you something delicious tomorrow morning."
"whee."
"Do you miss Daddy?"
"Ang Ang, brother?"
"They won't be back until the end of the month, and then we can see them, hurry up, call your mother?"
Linger stared at her big eyes and blinked several times, "Cool~"
"Okay, it's cool, the sound is almost the same, so it's called mother-in-law."
Qiao Mai never can't help but force children, you can shout whatever you want, as long as you like it, and you are happy.
The mother and daughter were full, and she let the child walk back and forth on the floor of the house to digest what she ate.
Although it is spring, it is still very cold outside, and the charcoal basin in the house has not been turned off, so it is warm.
After coaxing the child to sleep, she checked the yard gate, stable, and quail before bringing the two puppies into the house.
The three sons are not at home, they all sleep in the same room with Qiao Mai.
But there was some movement outside, and the little ones were very alert.
I have to say that it is worth raising these two puppies. In winter, there were several groups of thieves who stepped outside the yard. When they heard dogs barking in the yard, they went elsewhere.
Neighbors around followed suit, avoiding a lot of unnecessary losses.
On the night of Linger's birthday, the thieves came again, and the two puppies were humming in front of the kang, which was very abnormal.
Qiao Mai opened his eyes and immediately moved Linger to the space, took out a silent pistol and put it in his arms, holding a stick in one hand and touching the gun with the other hand.
Seeing that their master had gotten up, the two puppies immediately hid in the dark with silence.
They glanced at the door of each room, they must have stepped on it a little bit, and they also found out that there is only one woman and one child in the family.
Maybe they were acquaintances, but this time five thieves came in at once.
All covered their faces with black cloths, some with machetes in their hands, some with daggers, and tiptoed straight to the bedroom where Qiao Mai slept.
