It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 201
Before he could ask Su Changying why he had such an expression, Su Lu said another word, which directly stunned Su Changle.

"So I decided to separate the family, and bring Chang Yong back tomorrow when Riying goes to the county to see off Miss Fang."

Liu's tears that had been stopped flowed out again.

"Old man!!"

Su Changying knelt down, "Father, you can't separate the family. My son wants to buy a house in the county. It's not that he doesn't want to support you and his mother. He just wants our children to have a better future."

Su Changle was stunned for a long time, and then realized after hearing Su Changying's words, "Three, three, third uncle, why do you want to separate?"

Su Lu laughed, and pulled Su Changying up, "Silly son, dad wants to separate because he wants to enjoy life."

Su Changying was dumbfounded, "Huh?"

Su Lu smiled without saying a word, patted Su Changying on the shoulder, and turned to look at Su Changle.

"Chang Le, at noon tomorrow, the third uncle will be separated, and you will come over then."

Su Changle seemed to understand what Su Lu meant, and nodded.

"Okay, third uncle."

Early the next morning, Su Changying picked up Su Changyong and walked home. The two of them were speechless along the way, and Su Changyong didn't speak until they were approaching Sujia Village.

"Chang Ying, I know why Dad wants to separate the family."

"Brother, you also know?"

Su Changying was dumbfounded, yesterday Su Changle also explained Bai's father's intention to separate the family, how could the eldest brother know?
Su Changyong nodded, "I know, dad is doing it for the good of our two brothers."

Su Changying looked at Su Changyong in confusion, Su Changyong laughed and patted Su Changying on the shoulder.

"Oh, don't look at me like that, you'll know why in the future."

Su Changying "..."

When the two arrived home, the patriarchs Su Zheng and Su Changsheng, uncle Su Fu and several members of the clan had already arrived.

Su Changying looked at the patriarch and uncle's father sitting there, hesitant to speak, he really wanted to tell Su Lu that he didn't want to separate the family, and wanted to live with his elder brother, sister-in-law and parents for the rest of his life.

Seeing that everyone was here, Su Lu spoke with a smile.

"As the saying goes, if a tree has big branches, the sons will naturally have to separate when they grow up. It is lively for a big family to live together, but there will also be a lot of troubles, such as some trivial things."

"And living separately, although the family is not so lively, the relationship between people will be much more friendly."

Su Zheng nodded, "Brother Su Lu, you are right. Separation will not make the relationship worse, it will only make it better. Don't you see that our parents all separated early?"

Su Fu also agreed, "Brother Su Zheng is right."

"Yeah, that's what Brother Patriarch said."

Su Lu coughed twice and continued, "Well, for the sake of the relationship between the two brothers in the future, I decided to separate today, and I would like to ask everyone present to bear witness to me."

Su Zheng waved his hand, "It's easy to say, easy to say."

Su Lu looked around and saw no objection, so he took out a box from the inner bed, opened the box, took out three contracts, and continued.

"Well, my family now has a house with [-] mu of dry land and [-] mu of paddy field. According to the rules of our ancestors, the eldest son gets [-]% of the land, which is [-] mu of dry land, five mu of paddy field, and the remaining six mu of dry land. And the three acres of paddy fields belong to Chang Ying."

He took out two large purses from the box, poured all the money on the coffee table, and continued.

"Where's the money at home? Let me count, one, two... There are 56 taels in total, of which 50 taels, 35 taels for Chang Yong, 15 taels for Chang Ying, as for the remaining six taels, I will I will leave it with my wife to give out lucky money during festivals in the future.”

Su Zheng listened to the division of Sulu's family in strict accordance with the rules of the ancestors, and nodded very satisfied.

Su Lu smiled and continued: "Well, as for this house, it is actually very old and worthless. The only thing that is worth money is that the house is big enough. If it is rebuilt, it can build two big houses. out of the courtyard."

"So, I plan to share this homestead between the two of them equally."

"As for me and your mother, according to the rules, we must live in Chang Yong's house for the elderly, so I don't intend to break the ancestor's rules, we must also live in Chang Yong's house. In the future, Chang Ying will give Chang Yong three hundred catties of food every year. That's it."

After speaking, he looked at Su Changyong and Su Changying with a smile, "So, Chang Yong, Chang Ying, you see, is it okay to divide like this?"

Su Changyong and Su Changying knelt down in a "plop" and said in unison, "I will let my father decide everything."

Su Lu nodded in satisfaction, and looked at the patriarch, "Brother Su Zheng, please help me with the paperwork."

Su Zheng also laughed, he seldom encountered such a smooth family separation, many clansmen separated, no matter how good the usual relationship was, at that time, all kinds of tears and dissatisfaction began.

"Brother Su Lu, your family division is so smooth, so you still need me to write the paperwork? I think Chen Yuan and the others are also there. They have also studied for so long. They can't write articles. They should write a few paperwork. It's still possible."

Su Lu thought about it, so he called Su Chenyuan and Su Chenhao, let him dictate, and the two of them wrote five copies together, and everyone present signed them one by one.

There are five documents in total, one for Su Lu himself, one for Su Changyong and one for Su Changying, and one for each of the patriarch.

After collecting the paperwork, Su Lu gave the divided money to the two brothers, but Su Changying and Su Changyong were unwilling to accept it, "Father, this money is considered as a son and we honor you and your mother."

Su Lu's face was pulled down, and he said unhappily, "What do you mean? It means that I will take the money, and you will not be filial in the future?"

Su Changying was dumbfounded, "...Father, father, that's not what my son meant."

Su Changyong "..."

His father always played cards out of common sense. They obviously wanted to keep more money in their parents' hands. How did it involve disrespect?
Su Zheng stood up, happy, "Brother Su Lu, the sons you raised are doing well, they are all filial."

Su Lu was modest, "It's okay, it's so-so."

Su Zheng patted Su Lu on the back, and said to Su Changyong and Su Changying, "Since it was given by your father, take it. As the saying goes, if you give it to the elders, you dare not say it."

Su Changyong and Su Changying looked at each other, then at the patriarch standing in front of them, and at the father behind the patriarch, so they had no choice but to collect the money.

Su Zheng put his hands behind his back, "Okay, brother Su Lu, the family has been divided, and we will go back first."

Su Lu hurriedly stopped him, "Hey, it's already noon, why are you leaving? My wife, daughter-in-law and granddaughters are already cooking, so don't go back, let's eat here."

Su Zheng thought about it and agreed. The patriarch didn't leave, so naturally the other clansmen didn't leave either.
