Reborn Peasant Girl: I Rely on Carpentry as Minister of Industry

Chapter 32
Mrs. Jiang is the second child, and she is also the kind of little transparent that his father doesn't love his mother. When his parents separated, they only gave the wasteland at the foot of the Jiang family now, and two acres of paddy fields.

However, after the old man died of illness, the family forcibly took back the two acres of paddy fields on the grounds that Jiang's mother would remarry. If the wasteland had not been used by their family to build a house, they would probably have been robbed by force.

But if Mr. Jiang had one or two brothers, who would dare to rob their family's fields?This is the loss suffered by the thin population.

Old man Jiang went to learn carpentry from others because he was not assigned to the family farm. He started as an apprentice and worked hard for more than ten years before he learned a little.

It was that little know-how plus what he figured out that contributed to the old man Jiang being a half-hearted carpenter.

But in rural areas, the requirements of farmers are not high, and the main reason is that the price is cheap, so the craftsmanship of this half bucket of water is enough.

Over the years, the old man Jiang has wandered around ten miles and eight villages with his half-handed carpentry skills. The money he earns is enough to support a family, marry a wife, support his mother until the end of his life, have children, marry a daughter-in-law for his son, and send his grandson to school. , At the same time, I added [-] mu of land and [-] mu of land to my family.

With such an awesome achievement, no one would praise him for his ability and ability, but who would have thought that his wise life would be defeated by his children and grandchildren.

The old man Jiang cried, crying very sadly, and then pointed at the old lady Jiang, "Mr. He, in my whole life, I have never beaten or scolded you. When I was young, I helped you with washing and cooking. Whose family is that?" Can a husband do this?
But I spent 20 taels of silver on treatment. Is it a minor illness?You don't care at all don't you care?But the doctor said that if I die, I will live a few days. So I am not worth 20 taels in your eyes?

Look at what you have done?Knowing that Sanfang made a mistake and you still help them, are you helping them?You are pushing them farther and farther on the path of desperation, blindly indebted to the second and ignoring the boss.

How many times have I told you that you refuse to accept it? Look at it now. With today's situation, this family will also be broken up.
Forget it, since you all look down on each other, it's worth noting to be brothers, let's separate and cut off the family today, and each will live in its own way in the future, and each has nothing to do with it. "The old man Jiang wiped away his tears, and said sternly.

"Old man?!"

"father?!"

Mrs. Jiang and the people in the third house were shocked. They didn't expect old man Jiang to make such a decision.

As the saying goes, parents do not separate families, otherwise they are unfilial, and others will look down on them and be willing to bully them, especially those with scholars like them.

Mrs. Jiang was in a panic. Of course, she couldn't be a housekeeper after the separation of the family. Without power, who would care about the two of them who are old and immortal?Isn't this the same as being abandoned by the children?

Boss Jiang was very surprised. He didn't expect his father to want to separate the family now. This is of course the most beneficial for their eldest family, because they can not only get most of the land, but also don't have to support the second and third families. a burden.

It would be best if the parents live with themselves, because the old father also earns some income from daily carpentry, and the mother can also do housework.

If it is better not to live in a big house with them, how many years can people work when they are old?It will be easier not to wait on the elderly in the future.

Boss Jiang directly ignored the debt between old man Jiang and the second room, and he was not close to his brothers. Even if he didn't have these two brothers, he still had clansmen, who usually treated him much better than his own brothers.

Youngest Jiang raised his head in a hurry, separated?He never thought about it, because he didn't have the ability to resist a family at all.

He doesn't even know how to do farming alone, who will do the work when the family is divided?Who supports the family?
"Father, I was wrong. I won't dare again in the future. Don't leave me, okay?" Even if the debt is shared by everyone, the three families have no losses, but the nature of the separation is different.

Of course Jiang Laosan refused, knelt down to the old couple, and patted his face.

The old man Jiang waved his hand to stop Jiang Laosan from continuing, "When you went to flirt, did you ever think that you would cause trouble? It would bring disaster to the family?

You didn't stand up and admit your mistakes when someone called on you, which caused me and my second child to be beaten to death, and I don't know what chain troubles will follow.

You have already formed a feud to such an extent, and you have not even apologized to your second child so far. Do you think others are fools?Why do you think others will tolerate you?

I worked so hard to send the three of you to study, but it’s fine if you haven’t read the book. You don’t even have the basic principles and principles of life.

Selfish, refused to obey the discipline of my illiterate father, and fooled the old mother.

Since you are all so powerful, let’s go by yourself. Anyway, you are all grown up and married. It’s up to you whether it’s a blessing or a curse in the future. Anyway, I’m getting old and I can’t take care of you for the rest of my life.

This matter is so decided, there is no need to say more.

Alright, Jiawen, go and invite Lizheng to lie down and make a document for our family. "The old man Jiang closed his eyes and stopped talking.

The old man Jiang was able to go from nothing to a small success in his family. He didn't have great personal ability, but he was decisive and transparent. This is another kind of wisdom.

The Jiang family was very dumb. After being called by his grandfather, he immediately stood up, saluted the old man politely, and then went out without saying a word.

The eldest grandson of the Jiang family didn't seem to have any problems, but he was just a bit too stubborn, which was obviously not the case when he was a child, probably because his father often beat his mother.

Moreover, this child has no comprehension in reading, and Dafang's difficulties are still behind. Only Boss Jiang, who is short-sighted, can't see the facts clearly.

And the people in the second bedroom haven't said a word since they entered the door, so they are also eager to leave these top relatives, right?Especially Little Chang'an, who is becoming more and more capable now, but, it's hard to support him alone.

The only person in the third room is Jiang Laosan who is unwilling to separate the family, and the three children don't understand anything, but the usually chirping Jiang family is too quiet, probably because he feels that he has the backing of his mother's family.

But she didn't think about it either, she was a married woman after all, and she wanted to suppress her in-law's family every day to improve her sense of superiority, but her in-law's family couldn't get up, and she would be looked down upon by others when she returned to her natal family.

He is also confused and rebellious, and his mind is a little crooked. He is almost a match for Jiang Laosan with a pot and a lid.

Li Zheng was quickly invited by Jiang Jiawen. Hearing that the Jiang family was going to separate, he also brought a brush, ink, paper and inkstone and Li Zheng's seal.

"Brother, how did you get to this point?" Li Zheng's surname is Hong, he is about forty years old, and he is Li Zheng of the three villages of Shanli, Shanshang and Shanxia.

He happened to be not at home when something happened to the Jiang family yesterday, and fortunately he was not at home, otherwise he would have been really difficult to deal with. Those people are the policemen in the yamen, and he can't speak well, and he will offend people. He will go to the yamen to do business in the future are difficult.

The Jiang family has been stable for many years. If it wasn't for what happened, no one would have known that the relationship between the three brothers of the Jiang family was so bad.

There is nothing wrong with splitting the family, but old man Jiang is actually still young, and he will inevitably be gossiped about in the future.

"Hey, it's all fate. Let's split up if we don't get together. Hong Lizheng, please witness and set up a document." It's useless to talk more in front of outsiders, it will only make others look down on him, old man Jiang sighed helplessly.

"Okay, how do you want to divide it? You say it, and I write it." All the property of the Jiang family was earned by the old man himself, so it has nothing to do with the Jiang family.

In addition, the relationship with the clan is not good, and the old man Jiang didn't even invite a person from the Jiang clan to witness such important events as the separation of the family.

"Old man, I am useless, the Jiang family is very poor, and they have nothing to share.

Twelve mu of land, five mu for the elder family, three and a half mu each for the second and third families, but the third owes half his life to the second, and one and a half mu of land to compensate; mu.

The others are gone. Now the houses and land that each family lives in are their own. When the time comes, the yard will be delineated and a monument will be erected.

You have five chickens in each house, and the pigs and vegetable fields in the kitchen, hut and backyard belong to our old couple, and you brothers will share them equally after a hundred years of us.

For other agricultural tools and furniture, you can share them if you can, and if you can’t, give them to the elders, and the food will be shared equally.

In the end, we old couple live on our own, but the three of you brothers have to give [-] catties of food and [-] Wen pension money on time every month, and give appropriate gifts during the holidays.

That's it, old lady, do you have anything to add? "

Mrs. Jiang's eyes were red, and she shook her head numbly. How could she dare to have any objections? It would be great if the old man could bring her by his side. None of her sons could be relied on, even her beloved third child.
