Chapter 154: Smooth Separation
The old lady of the Chen family has already disposed of most of the things in the family, and in addition to each of the Chen Minsheng brothers, they also took away one silver ingot and five taels of silver ingots and three silver dollars each.
In this way, it is equivalent to a family taking away about 200 yuan. From here, it is enough to see that the Chen family still has some family background.
The three brothers were quite satisfied with the amount of money they had shared, although they were not very happy with the old lady's distribution of jewelry to their daughter, but their faces did not show it.
can successfully divide the family, and live their own lives in the future, it is better than anything else, the three brothers have been mixed together all these years, each hiding their own hearts, and they are really fed up.
After the family was separated, each was in charge of the house, and he didn't have to listen to his mother's instructions for anything, and he finally felt comfortable when he was able to raise his eyebrows and exhale once.
"Everything is here, how to divide it is clear, and there is one more thing, that is, the pension in the future.
Although I live in your eldest brother's house, and your eldest brother takes care of me to eat and drink, but my body is not good, and I have to take medicine and see a doctor at every turn, so you give me a dollar every month to spend, and you have to have filial piety for three festivals a year.
If you agree, we will immediately go to the township and invite Secretary Han and people from the civil affairs department to make a note in front of the government.
You should honor me for what is due to you, and write it all down in black and white, and some people will regret it in the future. ”
Mrs. Chen is definitely not an ordinary person, and she is called a steady and neat way to do things, and immediately put forward a document.
When the three sons heard this, they began to think about it.
The eldest Chen Minsheng is naturally not happy, the old lady is only in her fifties, although sometimes her health is not good, but she can help the family cook and help watch the children on weekdays.
Moreover, there are Qiaojuan and Qiaolian sisters to take care of it, if Min'an and Minfeng usually give a little, basically they can't spend anything on his family, how can he not agree to such a good thing?
As for Chen Min'an and Chen Minfeng, they are not very happy, one dollar a month, twelve yuan a year, not much, but it is also a lot, and there is filial piety for three festivals a year, why don't you get twenty yuan together?
They don't know how much money they can earn when they go to work, and they have to support their daughter-in-law and children, and then get back the money to honor their mother, it's not cost-effective.
"Mother, that's the case, our brothers said that they were going to be workers, but how much money they could earn is not counted yet.
Besides, we have to settle down when we get there, and the child's mother has to coax the child at home to go out to work, and the little money we earn is not enough to do anything.
Mother, can you see if this will work? One dollar a month is free, if you are sick and spend money on medicine, our three brothers will share it equally.
On three festivals a year, we honor according to the standard of five dollars, is this okay? Chen Minfeng was more shrewd, rolled his eyes, and came up with more favorable conditions.
"Yes, yes, mother, we also started with apprenticeship in the past, the salary is low, and I will give you twelve yuan a year, which is indeed a little more.
The third brother's idea is good, I think I will do what the third brother says. Chen Min'an also came back to his senses and nodded quickly.
Mrs. Chen mainly wanted to protect her in the future, and she was afraid that her sons would ignore her in the future, so she put forward conditions. After all, she still felt sorry for her son, and after thinking about it, she agreed.
"That's fine, just as you say. A few of you, hurry up and put everything away, so that outsiders don't see it, it's all trouble.
But if you can live your life, don't be in a hurry to make a move, it is always useful to keep it, and I also tell your daughter-in-law, don't talk nonsense when you go out, beware of making people worry about it. ”
Mrs. Chen has experienced too many things in her life, and she has some eyesight and insight, which is by no means comparable to Wang's concubines.
The old lady loves her son sincerely, and even if it is now, the old lady does not forget to plan for her sons.
Chen Minsheng and the three of them hurriedly nodded when they heard this, and carefully put away the silver ingots and silver dollars they had been distributed. Sister Qiaojuan also put her jewelry aside.
These things are easy not to be seen by outsiders, otherwise they will be a big trouble.
Waiting for everyone to clean up, Chen Minsheng personally went out to the township government, invited Secretary Han and the civil affairs assistant, and asked them to help preside over the separation.
It happened that Secretary Han and the civil affairs assistant were there, and as soon as they heard that the Chen family was separated, they all came over.
Entering the door, Secretary Han first persuaded him, "Look at this trouble, the land was just divided last year, and other people's families wish that the family would be twisted into a rope and work hard to make money, why do you still have to divide the family?"
Even if Min'an Minfeng wants to go to work, he doesn't have to divide the family, what a good thing, the family has land and a house, and there are people who go to work to earn money, this good day is just around the corner, what are you doing when you divide the family? ”
Mrs. Chen sighed, "The children are all older, they have ideas, they can't live together anymore, they want to divide, then divide it, and if they are separated, it will still be the Chen family." ”
What can the old lady say in front of outsiders? Can you say that the family has been in trouble for half a year? The old lady is such a face-saving person, so naturally she refuses to tell the truth, and only covers up the past with two vague sentences.
When Secretary Han saw this situation, he knew that the separation was inevitable, so he sighed, "Yes, since you have already decided, it is useless for me to persuade you."
But there is one thing, Min'an Minfeng goes to work, and the household registration has to be left, and there will be no share of the land in the village in the future.
We have just finished dividing the land, and we can't move it for the time being, and if the state has a policy to redivide the land next time, your land will have to be redivided according to the actual population, you can think about this clearly. ”
Ugly things have to be said in front, don't go back to the countryside to reclaim the land, and the Chen family will make trouble again.
"Well, we know this, we can't confront national policies, we can do what we want." Over there, the three brothers of the Chen family hurriedly nodded in agreement.
Secretary Han saw that the separation was a foregone conclusion, so he didn't say anything anymore, so he wrote the document of the separation according to Chen Jiang's request.
In addition to the silver ingots and silver dollars, other related houses, land, and money have been distributed, and the agreement on pension has also been written, and nothing has been left behind.
After the writing was completed, everyone signed the document and pressed their fingerprints, and even Qiao Juan and Qiao Lian, at the request of the old lady and Secretary Han, signed their names and fingerprints on the witnesses.
The old lady's meaning is obvious, if the three brothers of the Chen family dare not support the elderly in the future, let the Qiaojuan Qiaolian sisters come forward to help seek justice.
Qiaolian was originally reluctant to get involved in these things, but she couldn't stand the persuasion of the big guys, in front of Secretary Han and comrades in civil affairs, Qiaolian was not good at getting into trouble with her mother, so she couldn't sign hard.
The documents were in quadruplicate, one was kept by the old lady, one was kept by the three Chen Minsheng brothers, and one was kept in the township, and the last one was handed over to Qiaojuan for safekeeping.
Lest someone miskeep it and lose it or break it, there will really be any disputes in the future.
In this regard, the Chen family is officially separated, and the old lady will not be a family member in the future, she can only rest assured that she will support the elderly, and she does not have to worry about other things.
