Chapter 56: Poor old lady
Before the elders came, Linlang took out all the valuable things in the house, and then counted them one by one in front of everyone. The most valuable thing first was definitely the fields. There used to be nearly two hundred acres in the house. land, but now there are only more than 120 acres, and there are also chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep at home. The rest are some small things, such as pots and pans for cooking, and some tables, chairs and benches. of……

Because the family was about to be separated, everyone ate a little carelessly, but their eyes lit up. It seemed that everyone was looking forward to the separation!

After all the elders arrived, Linlang took out the things, checked them one by one and confirmed with everyone that they were correct, and then started to talk about the separation of the family.

"The eldest son is the eldest son and grandson. Although we live in the countryside, the eldest son really deserves more!
The second and third eldest children are both male in the family, so their scores are equal. Of course, the last point is that I, the old woman, am still alive. I neither plan to live with the eldest brother nor the other two. I plan to live alone. Taohua is still young and it will take a few years to get married, so the dowry must be prepared!
The boss will be divided into three layers of five, the remaining two will each be divided into two layers of five, and Taohua and I will divide the remaining 15%!

The pots and pans will be divided according to quantity. The eldest brother will have three houses, the second and third sons will have two houses, and Taohua and I will also be divided into two rooms. The kitchen will be left to the eldest brother. You guys will help me when the time comes. Get a kitchen out!
Among the chickens and ducks at home, the biggest piece is probably divided into pieces, and it should be the cow..."

Cows are a valuable thing, worth at least dozens of taels of silver, so many people are concerned about where this thing goes!

"Mom, I'm the eldest son in the family. My second brother has bad legs and feet, and he doesn't have a son. It's useless to keep the third brother because he doesn't know how to do farm work. Otherwise, give it to me!" The boss suddenly stood up and blushed. He made a face, and then stammered something like this.

Lin Lang glanced at the boss, then at his wife behind him, and sighed, "Okay, I'll give you the cow, but when the second and third boys want to use the cow, you have to give it to them!"

The boss didn't expect Linglong to agree so happily. He smiled and nodded, but the third boss next to him was not happy. The boss had already divided so much of the family's wealth. Why should he also give him the cow? Even if I don't need the cow, I can't just give it to him.

Linlang knocked on the table, then looked at the second and third sons, "Since the boss has divided the cows, the second boss will get two pigs and two chickens, the third boss will get a pig, and then ten chickens, and the remaining chickens Heya is mine and Taohua’s!”

"What about the vegetable garden at home?" The eldest daughter-in-law's eyes were rolling rapidly.

"I remember there are three vegetable gardens at home, one big one and the other two small ones. The big one will be given to me and my second family, and each of you two will have one!"

Normally this is fair, but the eldest daughter-in-law disagrees. She thinks that the big field should be given to her.

"Mother-in-law, you can actually live with me and the boss!" The boss's daughter-in-law is indeed greedy for the things her mother-in-law gives her. Even though her mother-in-law is older, Taohua is still young and can help their family with work!

Linlang waved her hands impatiently, "That won't work. You have such a hot temper that we can't get along. My second daughter-in-law is the one who gets along best with me. Although she can't beat a fart with three sticks, she won't make me angry at least. !
Next is the most important thing in the family. You also know that the family has been spending a lot of money in recent years, especially the third child is going to take the exam, so the family has not saved much money at all, but no matter what, we still have to live by it. It’s okay if you don’t have money in your hands! "

Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard that they had to split the money, but when Linlang took out the bag, everyone looked disappointed!
"A total of thirty-five, two, or three hundred coppers!" Linlang looked at the three sons, "Ten taels of silver each. The rest is for me and Taohua. From now on, you can spend it as you like. If you don't have money, Don’t look for me, an old woman!”

After the things in the house were divided, the food was divided according to the proportion of the population. The eldest daughter-in-law was also a little unhappy. You must know that there are three boys in her own family, but there are only three girls in the second eldest family. Obviously, their family Take advantage!
Linlang didn't care about this. After dividing the money twice with a strong attitude, she started talking about the issue of pension. "Each family should be given 100 kilograms of grain every year, but not those worthless potatoes and sweet potatoes. Fine grains must account for 20%, and the rest is some coarse grains. Just give it as you see!

During festivals, chickens, ducks, fish, meat, and every year every household must give me three feet of cloth, make a few pairs of shoes, and give me one tael of silver from each household. The rest depends on your filial piety! "

In fact, this is really not much, and the three sons also agreed. After the family was divided, everyone had another meal.

The eldest brother is quite a conscientious person. He found some young men in the village and built a kitchen for his own mother-in-law. One hundred coppers.

The third child just pretended that he didn’t know what to do, and even yelled at them to help him build a kitchen, but they ignored him!
Linlang breathed a sigh of relief after the family was divided. As for what the family would be like in the future, she didn't have to worry about it. But having said that, the weather was getting colder and colder recently, and she had to quickly buy winter clothes.

After the family was divided, the family became peaceful. Since the kitchen at home had not been built yet, everyone still shared a kitchen. Just when Linlang was about to cook, the second daughter-in-law held the pancake in her left hand and the pancake in her right hand. He came over with a bowl of pickles.

"Mom, I made something, you can make do with it and eat it first!" the second daughter-in-law stammered.

Linlang didn't dislike it and nodded, and then the eldest daughter-in-law came too, carrying an earthen pot in her hand.

"It's a coincidence. We cooked some porridge at home. I thought my mother must not have had time to eat, so I brought some over. I hope my mother-in-law won't dislike it!" the eldest daughter-in-law said with a smile.

It seems that although the eldest daughter-in-law likes to scheme, she is not a bad person herself. The main reason is that the family is too poor and she has a brother-in-law who spends money like water. If she hadn't done some scheming, she would have been eaten alive by others.

Now that the family is separated, the eldest daughter-in-law has returned to her previous calm demeanor, and even her voice has become much gentler.

Linlang ate the meal and looked at the two daughters-in-law next to her. At the same time, she talked about her plans, "Winter is coming soon. I haven't made a new dress in my family for several years. How about these two taels of silver?" Take dozens of feet of cloth and buy some cotton, and then make thicker cotton coats for all the children at home!"

The eyes of the eldest daughter-in-law suddenly lit up, and she glanced at the clothes she was wearing, "Then we are really blessed by my mother-in-law!"
