Chapter 9 Separation of Households (2)
Tian Caihua’s eyes lit up. This red brick house was only built two years ago and it’s still new!
There was not enough money to build a house at that time, and Zhou Chenglei had to send back half of it. Unexpectedly, he didn't want it and gave it to them.
Tian Caihua finally felt a little more balanced.
"Then the new house will be allocated to Chengxin, and the old house will be allocated to Chenglei. Xiaoxia, do you have any objections?" Father Zhou looked at Jiang Xia.
Tian Caihua glanced at Jiang Xia, what could she say? Both of them are planning to divorce, and she won't be living together for long!
Last night Zhou Chenglei and Zhou Chengxin said that they were afraid that their parents would not agree to the separation of the family, so they kept it secret from the two elders and said that they would not divorce, but just separate the family.
Actually, she felt that Zhou Chenglei was worried that his parents-in-law would not look good on Jiang Xia in the future if they knew they were getting divorced.
After all, we are no longer a family, who would be willing to raise her for nothing?
And the brother-in-law is not young anymore. He is twenty-eight years old, almost thirty. If Jiang Xia is left at home for half a year and gets divorced, he will be twenty-nine.
After a divorce, you may not be able to marry a second one right away. If you delay, wouldn’t it be thirty years old?
My parents-in-law definitely disagree. My parents-in-law have always wanted my brother-in-law to get married and have children as soon as possible.
It means that my brother-in-law is an honest and kind man, but a woman who wants to divorce him still supports her for half a year in vain!
Jiang Xia smiled and said: "Dad, I have no objection. Whatever Chenglei says is whatever it is, and I listen to Chenglei."
What Chenglei says is whatever it is, and she listens to Chenglei. , which made Father Zhou look a little better.
This is what being a daughter-in-law should be like!
Tian Caihua received the benefits and did not mind saying nice things. He smiled and said: "Dad, the fourth brother is capable and the fourth brother and sister are educated. They will definitely be able to make money to build a bungalow and a room soon." It's bigger than this one."
Zhou Chenglei had no expression on his face, Jiang Xia just smiled as he sat next to him.
Father Zhou continued: "The fields and land at home."
Tian Caihua immediately said: "Dad, when the production team divided the land at home, the four brothers Guangzong Yaozu were all I have a share, but my fourth brother’s household registration was not there at that time.”
Zhou Chengxin stared at her: "Dad hasn't finished speaking yet, don't interrupt!"
The fourth brother has given the new house to their family, what else does this woman want?
Wouldn’t the land also be divided between the fourth brother and his wife?
That’s too much!
Tian Caihua glared at Zhou Chengxin. He had no ability and was not fighting for anything. Did he think he was rich?
Don’t you know that you still have four sons to raise?
I am a half-grown man living in poverty. I have no more fields, what will I eat?
And she was telling the truth. Zhou Chenglei was indeed not assigned a field, and his household registration was not there.
Father Zhou has no control over the fields and flowers, so how can the division of the family be truly fair? We can only do our best.
The house was given to her. Although what she said was true, the land was naturally divided between the fourth and his wife, and she took all the benefits.
"The family fields, private land, vegetable garden land, and bamboo garden are divided equally among you three brothers. One acre of land and two shares of land for me and Qin's mother are enough, and they will be left to Zhou Zhou in the future."
When Tian Caihua heard this, she was dissatisfied and blurted out: "The second brother's family and Zhou Zhou are also there?"
She took advantage of the house and the land was given to Jiang Xia. She tolerated it. The second brother and his wife were on public food. Also? There is also a girl called Zhou Zhou who is going to get married in the future, so how can she have land?
Shouldn’t the land owned by the two elders belong to their big house in the future?
Since ancient times, there has been a field for the eldest son. After the old man passes away, shouldn’t that field be left to the eldest son?
Zhou Chengxin: "Shut up! Otherwise the house will be divided equally."
Can you just say a few words? Zhou Chengxin is almost mad at his wife, who is not as sensible as Jiang Xia.
Looking at Jiang Xia, she has no opinion at all. When asked, she only said, "Listen to Chenglei."
Tian Caihua didn’t say anything, but she was furious.
Married to a man who is incompetent and still pretending to be generous!
He didn't know that he had four sons and the house was divided equally. Where would his son live when he gets married?
Does he have the ability to build another one?
Father Zhou asked again: "Don't you have any objections to the fields and the land?"
Zhou Chengxin: "Dad, we have no objections, and this should be the way it is divided." He teased Tian Tian Caihua had no choice but to say, "Divide the clothes as dad says."
Their family has a lot of land, so dividing them this way is enough.
Zhou Chenglei: "No."
He doesn't care about the fields. He doesn't have much time to plant, and Jiang Xia doesn't know how to plant. She is so delicate that she can't do it, and it will be done soon. Jiang Xia doesn't care about divorce.
Father Zhou looked at Jiang Xia who said nothing.
Jiang Xia: "I have no objection either."
Zhou's father continued: "The family's boat."
Tian Caihua was anxious again.
Only those with a boat can go fishing and make money to support their families!
The couple knew nothing and were uneducated. How could they live without a boat?
If the three brothers divide it, or divide it into four parts, how can they survive in the big house?
"Dad, is that half of the boat for us and our fourth brother?"
Zhou Chengxin: "Can you please stop interrupting?"
Tian Caihua pouted: "Really? Are you going to stop talking?"
Father Zhou just pretended not to hear and said calmly: "We, father and son, will sail for a day, and we will take turns."
Tian Caihua has no objection this time. Although she wanted the two brothers to sail the boat for a day, her father was still young and could still do it. She couldn't stop him from driving the boat. What if she had to support him?
Also, this boat was bought from the production team not long ago, but not old. The family didn't have enough money to buy it, so Zhou Chenglei contributed part of the money.
She was just afraid of giving the ship to Jiang Xia.
Father Zhou continued: "The pigs, cows, chickens and ducks at home. Each of your brothers has one pig, one for me and your mother. Your mother raises the cows. You have to lead them and use them, and then sell them for money. Half for each person, and half for each of you chickens and ducks. It’s hard to take care of that nest of chickens. Let your mother raise them.”
"The tables, chairs, farm tools, bowls and chopsticks at home, Chenglei, you can bring one set when you move here." There are many people in the family, and there are two sets of Eight Immortals tables piled up in the utility room. During the New Year and the holidays, several brothers and sisters gather together. When the time came, I took them out for use, but they were all old.
There are many tables and chairs, and Tian Caihua has no objection to them.
Anyway, the furniture has been placed in the hall now, and it is all new. Zhou Chenglei has no reason to move the furniture in the hall.
Father Zhou: "As for money"
Tian Caihua moved her buttocks and sat up straight.
Mother Zhou looked at her two daughters-in-law, one was calm and calm, the other could not hide her narrow-mindedness, as if she was afraid of suffering a loss.
After such a comparison, Zhou's mother doesn't dislike Jiang Xia so much. It seems that she must be a bit educated.
Even though she is educated and has a big heart, I don’t know if she can live with the fourth child, but don’t let her son look down on her sincerely!
The son divided the family into pieces just to keep her.
Father Zhou glanced at Mother Zhou and said, "Take out the money."
Mother Zhou came to her senses and took out a large bag of money from an old cotton-padded jacket.
Jiang Xia took a look and saw that it was quite thick!
Then Jiang Xia saw Zhou’s mother unpacking the money wrapped in various wrapping papers layer by layer. The outermost layer was yellow plastic film, then newspapers, then faded homespun cloth, and finally A total of five layers of the handkerchief were removed to reveal the great unity inside.
Jiangxia: "..."
