Chapter 14 The Tree Forks
Father Li was angry and passed away. Fortunately, there was a doctor in the village.

Li Jiyu, who had quick legs and feet, saw something was wrong and ran out. As soon as he ran out the door, he heard Li Yishan shouting for a doctor, and he ran faster on his legs.

In less than a quarter of an hour, Dr. Hong from the village arrived out of breath and directly administered the needle. Fortunately, it was just in time to avoid Mr. Li from suffering a stroke.

But this is already a sign of a stroke. If you don't get angry, you won't be so lucky next time.

After all, Father Li is almost sixty.

Li Yishan asked Li Ronyu to send the doctor back as usual, ignoring the crowd of people still kneeling in the main room, and only stayed in the back room, waiting for Mr. Li to wake up.

During this gap, Li Yishan glanced at his sister-in-law, Lao Yuan, who was sitting beside the bed, and couldn't help but said: "Brother Feng and his sisters had a quarrel in the sunbathing yard a few days ago. I heard vaguely about it, and I also followed him. Is it relevant for Brother Tan to study?"

Old Yuan nodded, feeling worried about his wife and not in the mood to say anything more.

After Li Yishan received her nod, he knew something in his mind and had his own concerns. At the moment, he was just thinking about things on his own and said nothing.

After about two quarters of an hour, Father Li on the bed hissed and finally woke up leisurely.

Li Yishan rushed from the door and grabbed Father Li's hand in front of the bed, "Brother! What do you think?"

Both his parents were gone. Apart from his two sisters who were married outside, he was just a biological brother. It was better that the relationship between the two brothers was young. How could he not worry about his younger brother?

Father Li was still a little dazed for a moment, and then he regained consciousness. Then he thought of what happened before he fainted. He felt terrible and his breathing became rapid when he saw it.

Li Yishan listened and quickly advised him, "You can't stand your anger now. Listen to me, don't be angry."

Old Yuan also advised him to be more open-minded and that his own body was important.

But how could Mr. Li not be angry? He wanted to find a part-time worker. Why? Isn’t it for the whole family? If he were still young, he would have done this day laborer himself.

Earning an extra penny is just one penny, right?
But no matter what the fourth child says, all he earns is to study for Brother Tan, this bastard! Is it possible that their whole family doesn't eat or drink?

He felt really uncomfortable in his heart.

Seeing his brother blushing and saying nothing, Li Yishan knew that he was feeling uncomfortable, so he couldn't help but reach out and pat his shoulder.

He was also very emotional in his heart.

"Brother, listen to me, it's time for your family to be divided."

Li Yishan took a sip from the dry tobacco stick, exhaled a circle of smoke, turned to look at Mr. Li and said: "In the past, there were younger brothers and sisters who were pressing down, but they didn't show it. Now you are watching, right? It's just a matter of studying, and this hasn't happened yet." When you start spending money, your thoughts are revealed. You can imagine that in a year or two, this family will be in chaos sooner or later. The children are all grown up, and they have married wives and given birth to children. Can you keep suppressing it?
As the old saying goes, when a tree branches, a large number of people divide their families. It is unacceptable for such a large family to live under one roof! "

Wasn't it because of these messy little things that he decided to separate the family in the first place?
The family is divided, don't talk about it, he feels much more comfortable.

"Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. Brother, you are almost sixty. It's time for you to take it easy. Just follow my brother's example and worry less and feel better! Let them take care of the children's affairs themselves. Now that I’m a father, can I still have you supporting me for the rest of my life?”

Father Li was startled when he heard this. After a moment, he slowly exhaled a breath and looked at his elder brother. His eyes were a little discouraged and he said, "Brother, I know you are right, but in my heart, I am stunned. You can’t let it go! You also know the tempers of the step-rich and the step-gui. If the family is separated and they are left to take charge of their own affairs, I wonder what it will be like!
I just thought that I would wait a little longer. When Brother Wu and Brother Chun were older and both had wives, they would be more responsible than their father. At that time, I would feel more at ease if we separated our families. "Li Yishan understood him, but he couldn't support him at this moment. He just asked him: "Brother, do you think this is the way it is now? If this family insists on getting together, can it be stable for half a year? "

Father Li was stunned, he couldn't guarantee this.

But is it really a separation?

Dad Li couldn't help but talk to his eldest brother about his biggest worry. There was nothing he couldn't talk to his eldest brother.

"Brother, you also know that I only have ten acres of paddy fields and twenty-two acres of dry fields in my hands. According to the rules of family division, Jiren gets 70% of it. The rest is less than two acres in the hands of Jihe and the others. That's it. How can I support my family if I just give them a piece of land? If I really give them a house, my life will definitely be delayed, but Keji and them... how can I just watch helplessly!"

Li Yishan sighed when he heard this, and he couldn't help but increase his tone, "Brother, I have said so much, but you still haven't listened! Children and grandchildren will have their own blessings. You can't worry about continuing with them and insisting on tying them together, but Can the successor to the rich and the noble understand your feelings? If they could understand, such a thing would never happen!
Another thing, don't Jiren and his wife have no idea? You and your siblings will live together in the future, and your eldest son and grandson, Rong Song, will be the one to break pots and hold flags for you. No matter how you go there, you can't go around the eldest home. Jiren and his wife will have knots in their hearts. You two are getting old. What to do? "

"If you still think of me as your brother, just listen to me and divide this family!"

Father Li was startled by his eldest brother's tone. Ever since he was a child, his eldest brother had never spoken to him in such a serious tone. Now that he heard what his eldest brother meant, if he didn't distinguish between the two families, he wouldn't be his eldest brother. Brother, he was also shocked.

My heart was in a mess, but I finally said: "Brother, please let me think about it, think about it, ah?"

Li Yishan sighed again, reached out and patted him, "Hey! Think carefully and relax, your body cannot withstand being frightened or angry."

Now that Li Yishan is gone, he, the eldest brother who has divided the family, cannot make all the decisions for his younger brother. He is the head of his family and it is up to him to make his own decisions.

Although his words were serious, no matter what, he was his biological brother. He promised his parents that he would take good care of him. He only hoped that his brother could understand that separating the families was the best arrangement at the moment.

Father Li was angry and didn't want to see his sons, but he also remembered that it was cold and kneeling for a long time would hurt his body, so he asked his wife to go out and sent them back to their respective houses.

It was unknown what everyone was thinking or saying after returning to each house. Father Li didn't want to think about it. He closed his eyes and thought about the family separation.

It wasn't until Old Yuan brought a bowl of egg custard and told him to get up and eat that he opened his eyes, looked at the egg custard, and subconsciously said: "I won't eat this, you eat it to replenish your body."

"My body is stronger than yours." Old Yuan answered, helped him up, spooned the egg custard and fed it to his mouth, "Eat it, what will I do if you are in trouble?"

The old wife's tone was calm, but Father Li could hear the anxiety in her heart, the anxiety for him.

He felt very sore in his heart at that moment. His old wife had been with him through thick and thin for decades. She had given birth to his children, taken care of the housework, and lived in old age. It was time for her to enjoy the blessings. How could he let her The old wife has so much to worry about for her children and grandchildren.

The eldest brother is right, children and grandchildren will have their own blessings, and he has enough to worry about.

Seeing the gray on his old wife's temples, at this moment, Father Li finally made up his mind.

Separate families.
