Great Song Super Scholar

Chapter 41 Unexpected Results

Lu Yuanwai panicked for a while. He felt a little bad, so he asked his brother in a low voice, "Ah Sheng, what should we do?"

Lu Asheng glanced at Zhu Yuanfu and rolled his eyes, "Why don't you listen to what they have to say first?"

"Say a fart!"

Lu Yuanwai was annoyed. At this time, it would be serious to set the conditions with the Fan family. How could we give the Fan family another chance.

He coughed, "My father-in-law, why don't we talk alone."

Fan Dachuan is such a shrewd person. Since his grandson Fan Ning invited Zhu Daguan, it means that things have turned for the better. At this time, he will not sign the humiliating treaty.

He laughed dryly, "My father-in-law, let's wait."

But Zhou Shuigen knew it well, he smiled and said to Fan Ning: "What did Xiaoguan Fan want to say just now?"

Fan Ning calmly said, "Just now Lu Yuanwai mentioned the rules, so I will talk about the mediation rules. According to the rules, the gentry in charge of mediation is either jointly recommended, or both parties invite each other, and everyone negotiates to solve the problem.

These three squires were invited by the Lu family to express their opinions on behalf of the Lu family, but the squire representing our Fan family has not yet spoken, so the conclusion of the mediation cannot be reached, right? "

Zhou Shuigen secretly gave a thumbs up, this little guy is a powerful character, why didn't the Fan family pull him out earlier?

He chuckled, "According to the rules, it's like this. It's just that the Fan family didn't invite a squire just now. Although the patriarch Fan is a squire, his surname is Fan after all. Lu Yuanwai thinks that he can't participate in the mediation, so the decision can only be made according to the opinions of the three squires." .”

Fan Ning smiled slightly, "But now our Fan family has also invited the squire, can we let him say a few words?"

Zhou Shuigen sighed in his heart, Mr. Zhu opened his mouth, what else is there for others?

He could only smile wryly, "Of course!"

Zhou Shuigen repeated the opinions of the two families and the final conclusion just now.

Before Zhu Yuanfu could speak, Zhu Pei smiled and said, "I'm here to say a few words for grandfather!"

Fan Ning was startled, and was about to stop her, but saw Zhu Yuanfu winking at him.

Fan Ning didn't stop it any longer. It is estimated that Zhu Pei had communicated with her grandfather in advance how to deal with this matter.

With a well-thought-out plan, Zhu Pei calmly said to everyone: "I think the Lu family's request is reasonable..."

There was an uproar in the yard.

Fan Tiezhou was in a hurry, and hurried forward to his son and said in a low voice, "Who is Mr. Zhu helping?"

Fan Ning glanced at Zhu Yuanfu, seeing that he was calm and composed, he smiled slightly and said, "Daddy, calm down, things will definitely turn around."

Fan Tiezhou had no choice but to go back and tell his father.

"Which song is this little girl singing?" Fan Ning also became interested.

Zhu Yuanfu just sat aside with a smile and did not interfere with his granddaughter.

"Everyone be quiet, listen to me!"

The courtyard fell silent, everyone was staring at Zhu Pei, everyone could see that this was a little lady.

Zhu Pei continued: "We think that the Fan family should pay the Lu family 500 taels of silver, but since the marriage is dissolved, the two children born to Fan Tieniu should also belong to the Fan family!"

The courtyard suddenly exploded, Fan Tiezhou breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly gave a thumbs up, this little lady is really smart.

Fan Ning slapped his forehead, "Wonderful! Why didn't I think of it?"

Zhu Pei glanced at him triumphantly, "You are Fan Daidai, how could you possibly imagine it?"

Lu Yuanwai suddenly became anxious, and he said angrily: "Fan Tieniu is the son-in-law, and his child's surname is Lu. This is the rule, how can it be changed casually?"

Zhu Pei said coldly: "Since you have to settle the accounts, then there is no door-to-door son-in-law. Why do you still have to be named after Lu's family?"

"This..." Lu Yuanwai was suddenly speechless.

Zhu Yuanfu was very satisfied with his granddaughter's plan, he laughed and said, "My granddaughter's opinion is mine!"

Lu Yuanwai hurriedly winked at the squire he had invited, but the three squires pretended not to notice. The three of them were not fools, so they would not offend the Zhu family for such a thing.

At this time, Lu Ah Shui pulled his brother aside and said in a low voice: "The situation is not good, why don't we give in!"

Although Lu Yuanwai is petty and stingy, nothing is more important than his grandson.

He had no choice but to walk back and said: "Then just return the dowry gift of 200 taels of silver, and I will not pursue the other three hundred taels of money."

"can!"

Zhu Pei resolutely agreed, "But once the dowry is returned, it's no longer a door-to-door son-in-law. You have to return the child to others."

Lu Yuanwai was stunned, and he suddenly stomped his foot, "Okay! I don't want a penny, I will divorce today!"

Fan Tieniu, who had been silent all this time, suddenly jumped up, "Give me my daughter, this is what you promised!"

Lu Yuanwai only valued his grandson and didn't care about his granddaughter. He was ready to agree to his granddaughter's surname Fan, but the condition was that Fan Tieniu would plant [-] mu of land.

Now that the Fan family has the support of senior officials Zhu, he knows that he will not be able to fight. At this time, as long as he keeps his grandson, he doesn't care what his granddaughter's surname is.

He immediately agreed, "Yes, I will give it to you if my daughter gives it to you!"

Fan Dachuan was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth, he didn't want to pay another penny himself.

"Okay! Today's marriage is considered divorced, and everyone will witness together!"

Lu Yuanwai sighed. Although he didn't want to get a divorce at first, but now he was in a difficult situation, so he nodded, "Draft a divorce agreement, everyone, witness, the Fan and Lu families will go their separate ways from now on."

"I'm not getting a divorce!"

Suddenly, a young woman came running in, wearing a thick light green gown, with tears in her eyes, she was Fan Tieniu's wife, and when she saw her father, she burst into tears, "Father, didn't you say Won't you get a divorce? Why did you change your mind again!"

"Hey!"

Lu Yuanwai sighed heavily, "I don't know how it happened?"

Fan Tieniu's wife ran up, hugged her husband's leg and cried loudly, "Tie Niu, you can't let me go!"

Fan Tieniu's nose was sore for a while, "But your father is too cruel to me!"

"But I treat you well! You fell ill in the water last year. I took care of you and didn't sleep for three days. Did you forget? Daddy doesn't give you meat. Who secretly saved the meat for you every day? You want Niu Niu Changing your surname to Fan, who persuaded your father to agree, have you forgotten?"

The lady was crying and complaining, at this time, a little boy also ran in and hugged Fan Tieniu's other leg, and cried loudly: "Daddy, don't you want a baby?"

Fan Tieniu finally couldn't bear it anymore, hugged the mother and son tightly, and whimpered, "I won't leave you!"

The family of three hugged each other and cried bitterly. The two families looked at each other in dismay. Everyone was fighting fiercely, but the family didn't want to divorce.

At this time, Zhu Yuanfu said earnestly to Fan Ning: "You understand! Why did I say that ten temples should be demolished, and a married couple should not be demolished. They have two children in four years, which means that their husband and wife have a good relationship. Although the little boy is not named Fan , but he is also his son, mother and daughter are connected by flesh, father and son are connected by heart, they cannot be separated!"

Fan Ning felt ashamed. He originally strongly advocated the third uncle's divorce, but now it seems that he only considers the face of the Fan family, but ignores the family affection of the third uncle.

Fan Ning glanced at Zhu Pei again, but saw that she turned her head and was wiping tears secretly. Fan Ning secretly praised, "This little girl really has a good heart." '

At this time, Zhu Yuanfu stood up and said: "The four members of the family cannot live without each other. I suggest that Fan Tieniu, the door-to-door son-in-law, continue to work, but the Lu family can no longer bully the son-in-law. The two sides set a few rules, and everyone will witness together!"

Zhu Yuanfu said to Lu Yuanwai again: "Lu Yuanwai, you will be too old to move one day. You definitely don't want your son-in-law to take revenge on you at that time! So if you treat your son-in-law better now, he will take good care of you in the future. Am I right?"

Lu Yuanwai lowered his head in shame. He felt that what Zhu Daguan said was right, and he was too short-term in thinking about the problem. What if Tieniu retaliated against him in the future?
But his brother Lu Ah Shui was thinking in his heart, they really underestimated the Fan family before, the Fan family was able to hire a senior official Zhu, this relationship must be grasped and cannot be lost, he quickly whispered: "Brother, let's promise him! "

Lu Yuanwai nodded, "Your Majesty Zhu is right, I didn't think carefully before, but I won't in the future!"

Zhu Pei added: "It's not enough to just admit your mistakes, you have to set out detailed terms and everyone should sign and pledge. If you violate the rules, then Lu Yuanwai's grandson will have to change his surname to Fan."

Although the words are a bit ugly, it is indeed necessary to put the ugly words first.

Lu Yuanwai's face was full of bitterness, but under Zhu Dayuanwai's strength, he had no choice but to nod in agreement.

Zhu Yuanfu said to Fan Dachuan again: "Mr. Fan, since the son-in-law who came to visit was the original marriage contract, and you have accepted a high betrothal gift from the Lu family, we must keep our word. From now on, as long as Yuanwai Lu treats his son-in-law kindly, you will not interfere too much." Son lives, right?"

Fan Dachuan was a little hesitant. He actually didn't want his son to be a door-to-door son-in-law. It was a bit embarrassing to say it. Now that he had the opportunity, he could dissolve the engagement without paying the dowry, which made him a little tempted.

At this moment, Fan Tongzhong whispered to his father: "Father, Yuanwai Lu is not a man of longevity. When he dies in the future, his property and land will belong to the third brother."

Fan Dachuan knocked him once, and cursed in a low voice: "You are the only one who can calculate!"

Even though he said this, Fan Dachuan also felt that the youngest son was right, as long as the grandson of the Lu family still recognized his father, then sooner or later the property of the Lu family would belong to his son.

He suddenly felt that this door-to-door son-in-law was also good.

Fan Dachuan nodded, "Mr. Zhu is right. In fact, my request is very simple, as long as my in-laws treat my son well. I don't want to worry about so many things."

But Fan Dachuan's attitude does not represent Fan Ning's attitude.

Fan Ning is not as simple as wanting third uncle to live a better life, not only to live well, but also to have dignity.

Dignity is that at least one child's surname is Fan, and beatings and scolding are usually not allowed, and the third uncle must be really treated as a son-in-law.

This must be based on the economy. Fan Ning put forward his plan, or the Lu family let the third uncle live separately with his wife and children, and the third uncle rented and planted the land of the Lu family as a tenant farmer.

If the Lu family does not agree that the daughter and son-in-law live separately, then the third uncle's land income must be increased to [-]%.

Finally, after negotiation, Lu Yuanwai still did not want his daughter and son-in-law to live separately. He agreed to Fanning's second plan: [-]% of the income from the land cultivated by the son-in-law would belong to the son-in-law and daughter.

That is to say, if the third uncle cultivates [-] mu of land every year, the income from [-] mu of land will belong to the third uncle Fan Tieniu. After tax, Fan Tieniu's annual income will be about [-] guan.

This is Lu Yuanwai's real concession. Only when he is economically independent can he have personal independence.
