Chapter 159 Inventory of Property
Separating a family is a major event, and it can only be completed by signing a deed under the witness of the village head, Li Zheng, and older elders in the village.

Almost everyone in Lijia Village came to watch, and most of them came here to watch the excitement.

The village head knows that Liu Xigui has had a bad life these years.

But when he saw that the place where he lived turned out to be a firewood house, he couldn't help but take a deep breath. Such a big house actually let his own son live in the firewood house!
I really don't treat people like people!
Chen Jinniang saw that the village chief's eyes were different, and explained dryly, "There are too many children in the family, and the girl's skin is delicate, so she can't sleep in the woodshed. .”

"Besides, he spends the night on the mountain most of the time and doesn't come back very often. It's too wasteful to tidy up a big bedroom for him alone."

It's fine if she doesn't say anything, but after such an explanation, the eyes of everyone looking at her became more and more strange.

That's my own son!
Moreover, he is so filial, capable of earning money, and more promising than most men in the village, yet he has been abused by his own mother for so many years.

They couldn't stand it anymore.

An aunt said sarcastically, "Why didn't he come back when he has a home? It's not because this is not his home at all, and you don't treat him as a family member."

"When I reach out for money, I think of him. When I have no money, I wish I could kick him away."

"It's the first time I've seen you act like a mother."

"You can be so cruel to your own son."

"It can be seen how vicious the heart is."

It was about to quarrel.

The village chief calmed down.

"Okay, okay, each of you should say a few words less. With me, Li Zheng, and all the clan elders witnessing today, Xigui will not suffer."

When he said this, he glanced at Liu Yuchen.

He was very optimistic about this scholar before, and he gave Liu Yuchen a lot of face. After all, he was the only one in Liujia Village who studied well, and he was praised by his master.

But so many years have passed, but I haven't seen him get any fame.

It is estimated that it is also useless.

That's why Chen Jinniang couldn't see clearly and regarded him as some kind of treasure.

Since Liu Yuchen was not promising, the village head had no worries. He didn't plan to help anyone else, and acted fairly in front of everyone.

"The Liu family now has two mu of dry land, one mu of paddy field, one mu of vegetable land, one thatched hut, about twenty utensils, two boars, and six piglets. Converted into silver, it is about 70 taels."

"I have five taels of silver in hand."

The surrounding villagers began to discuss.

"Liu Xigui is a good hunter. His mother has kept all the money he earned over the years. Even if his elder brother spent a lot of money on his studies, he should have saved a few dozen taels of silver anyway."

"Why is there only five taels?"

"I don't believe it, there must be something tricky in it."

"Did Chen Jinniang hide it?"

When Chen Jinniang heard the villagers talking like that, she was so angry that she cursed on the spot, "You rotten bastards, our family's affairs, what do you care about your idlers?"

"Enough support!"

The village chief also couldn't stand it.

"Chen Jinniang, did you hide the money? It's impossible to only have five taels of silver. Your family has lived a better life than me, the village head, all these years."

Chen Jinniang is confident.

"Village chief, if your son knows how to hunt, he will naturally be able to live a good life. However, that is all before, and now you can see that my fourth son is already a useless person who can't earn money at all. Since he broke his For his leg, it cost dozens of taels of silver just to treat his illness."

"It's not because of him that the family has become so poor now!"

People will be suspicious.

It is true that it costs money to see a doctor and take medicine, but it is too exaggerated to spend dozens of taels of silver so quickly.

not to mention……

Chen Jinniang didn't regard Liu Xigui as a human being at all, so how could she be willing to spend dozens of taels of silver on Liu Xigui's medical treatment?

Must be lying.
