Happy pastoral sturdy little lady

Chapter 328
This cousin was indeed very good before, but after getting married, something seemed to have changed.All in all, bad change.How should I put it, I have become separated from him, become fussy, not as harmonious and casual as before.

Tan Hai is also a scholar after all, and he is not a fool, so he naturally heard the meaning behind his words.Immediately, there was a bit of embarrassment on his face, and he didn't know what to say.

He could feel Xiang Dong's slight alienation.

"Xiangdong, I'll go home first, let's talk later!" Tan Hai fled in despair.

Liu Xiangchun blamed Xiangdong: "Look at you, you don't know how to be enthusiastic about Xiaohai, and you scare people away with just a few words! That's your cousin, your cousin, how can you How about this? Over the years, your grandpa’s family has been helping the family a lot, otherwise, how could our family live so well? Almost all the farms and fish ponds are managed by grandma’s family!”

After hearing what she said, Xiang Dong couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly, almost hurting himself internally!It's really embarrassing for my old lady for a while, so it's no wonder Da Ya can't get along with her!
It's not normal for Da Ya's jealous personality to get along with her!To say that my grandma’s family can live such a good life today is all thanks to Da Ya’s help back then. If it weren’t for Da Ya’s selfless help to my grandma’s family, my grandma’s family should still be living in poverty in the deep mountains of Wudaoliang. life too!

Regarding the farms and fish ponds, it is true that my grandma's family has been taking care of them, but they are all paid for wages and shares!That's what grandma's family should do. If they don't want to take care of it, I believe there are many people in Shanqian Village who are willing to take over!
The grandma's family can live a good life of delicious and spicy food all year round only relying on the farm and fish pond. Is there any dissatisfaction?Otherwise, why would my mother say such things? !
Xiangdong said calmly: "Mother, if grandma's family is unwilling to take care of the farm and fish pond, or if they feel that they are at a disadvantage, then when I come back, let's go quickly! I'll find someone else to take care of it. Is that all right?!"

As soon as this remark came out, Liu Xiangchun panicked: "No, no! Your grandma's family didn't say they didn't want to take care of it! Well, that is, Xiao Hai's daughter-in-law said a few things, and the others didn't say anything. !"

Xiangdong: "Cousin-in-law has an opinion?"

Liu Xiangchun: "Yes! It's just that your cousin has an opinion."

Xiang Dong: "What did my cousin say?"

Liu Xiangchun: "Your cousin is silent."

Xiang Dong: "So, cousin is acquiescing?"

Liu Xiangchun: "It seems to mean that."

Xiangdong: "Did uncle and aunt say anything?"

Liu Xiangchun: "They did reprimand your cousin, but your cousin is obviously not convinced. Xiangdong, since your cousin is not satisfied, why don't you pay me a little more, okay?"

Xiangdong: "Not good! This breeding farm and fish pond were originally Da Ya's painstaking efforts, and they were the last way out for our family! At the beginning, the reason why the fifth uncle was brought in was because the fifth uncle had no land or land, and there was no one else. My uncle felt sorry for my poor fifth uncle, so I let my fifth uncle manage it and merged my fifth uncle's shares. Later, my uncle's family and grandma and grandpa came, and in order to show fairness, my eldest sister took some from her own shares. To uncle's house!
However, so far, most of the shares are still in my name!Since the sister-in-law is not satisfied, then let the uncle's family quit!Anyway, fifth uncle and fifth aunt are also busy, and in two years, fifth uncle's child will grow up, and he can help the family with work! "

Liu Xiangchun was very embarrassed: "Is this not good?"

Xiang Dong: "What's wrong with that? Isn't Xiaohan working in the kiln factory? Xiaohan also has shares in the kiln factory, so it's only fair for the uncle's family to give the uncle's family's shares in the farm to the fifth uncle's family!"

Liu Xiangchun was still very embarrassed: "Xiangdong, this is to offend relatives!"

It was given at the beginning, but now if you want to take it back, you will definitely offend your relatives.

Xiang Dong also thought of this, and the anger in his heart calmed down a bit, so he said: "Well, let Xiaohan separate from his cousin! After the separation, uncle and aunt will live with Xiaohan, and take cousin Cousin sister-in-law is distributed! In this case, the shares in the farm are equivalent to being given to Xiaohan, so there is no need to take them back!"

"Ah? Is this all right?" Liu Xiangchun couldn't help being surprised.

Xiangdong: "I'll go find my uncle and aunt. If they agree to split the family and give all the shares to Xiaohan, I won't take back the shares in the farm! Otherwise, there is no reason to speak! You know, at the beginning When giving the shares to my uncle’s family, Da Ya had a word first, saying that our family can take back the shares at any time. Regarding this point, I also wrote an agreement, and asked the old patriarch and Li Zheng to witness it!"

Hearing this, Rao Shouqin finally couldn't help but said, "Xiangdong, you better not get involved in the family division. In my opinion, it's better to sell both the breeding farm and the fish pond to your fifth uncle! Anyway , Our family also has an orchard and a kiln factory. Erya is too busy managing the orchard, and Dongfeng has to go to the kiln factory to help. You are all in the northwest, and our family really has no time to manage the farms and fish ponds. This partner, after a long time, will inevitably have such and such conflicts."

Xiang Dong was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "Okay, I see, what Dad said makes sense. I'll go find Uncle Wu and sell all my shares to Uncle Wu! Well, it's only 3000 taels of silver. Sell ​​all the farms and fish ponds!"

Rao Shouqin: "Well, 3000 taels is not too expensive. However, your fifth uncle may not be able to afford this sum of money at once, why don't you let him pay in installments?"

Xiang Dong: "Okay, let's pay it in five years! At the end of each year, just give 600 taels of silver!"

Today, the annual income of the fish pond is almost 1000 taels of silver, and the net income of the farm also exceeds 1000 taels of silver.Therefore, the selling price of 3000 taels of silver is really a "relative price".

Erya was ordered to go to grandma's house, and invited grandma, master, uncle, aunt, and fifth uncle and fifth aunt to Ningyuan.Dongfeng was ordered to invite the old patriarch and the patriarch over.

The new patriarch, who has been in office for less than two years, is the son of the old patriarch. He is in his fifties, and he is also a good man with high morals and high prestige.

Xiangdong: "Grandpa, my cousin has a problem with our family's failure to manage the farm and fish pond, so I want to sell all the shares in the farm and fish pond I have in hand to Uncle Wu. Please come here to ask Uncle Wu Uncle’s opinion, and please bear witness.”

The uncle and aunt were taken aback, and all the strange things the daughter-in-law said in private reached Xiangdong's ears.The uncle hurriedly said: "Xiang Dong, you don't need to pay attention to her, she is just an ignorant and stupid woman!"

The fifth uncle also said anxiously: "Xiangdong, I understand better than anyone else about the farm. Originally, it was the uncle who saw me as the fifth uncle who was pitiful, so he let the fifth uncle participate. Later, your uncle's family also We moved out, and because of livelihood issues, Da Ya decided to give some shares to my uncle. Originally, this was all owned by Da Ya alone. If Da Ya is more ruthless, she can just give us wages!"

Speaking of this, Uncle Wu paused, and glanced at Uncle intentionally or unintentionally: "Besides, when it comes to wages, they are actually very high. I'm afraid you can't find such high wages in the entire Hulu County! For the salary, Da Ya can hire two strong laborers in the village! I really can’t figure it out anyway, why does Xiao Hai’s daughter-in-law say such stupid things?!”

The uncle and aunt couldn't help lowering their heads in shame.

Xiangdong waved his hand: "Uncle Wu, I have already decided, so you don't have to fight anymore! Over the years, you have worked hard to take care of the farms and fish ponds, and you have put a lot of effort into it. It can be said that without you, It is also impossible for the farm and fish pond to have that kind of harvest. It is settled like this. I will sell you the farm and fish pond for 3000 taels. You don’t need to pay in one lump sum, but pay separately, and it will be good for a period of five years. Already!"

Uncle Wu couldn't help being dumbfounded when he heard this: "3000 taels, isn't that too little? If you insist on selling it, it's better than 5000 taels!"

Xiangdong's attitude is very firm: "It's only 3000 taels, otherwise, I'll sell it to someone else!"

Continue to ask for monthly tickets, thank you!In the end, the fifth uncle couldn't compete with Xiangdong, and bought the farm and fish pond with 3000 taels of silver.

The uncle and aunt were a little embarrassed, and felt a little uncomfortable. They just felt that their family was underestimated by Xiang Dong.

Xiang Dong sighed, frowned and said: "Uncle, Auntie, don't blame me for giving Uncle Wu both the fish pond and the breeding farm. Isn't Xiaohan working in the kiln factory? Moreover, he was also given half of the shares. After one year, even the dividends, there is also a silver of two or three hundred taels. The wages are also quite a lot, and after accumulation, there are sixty taels a year, which is quite a lot!"

The uncle was ashamed: "Xiangdong, I didn't blame you. It's just that I'm worried that Xiaohai's daughter-in-law will make trouble and the family will not be peaceful! Although Xiaohan earns a lot, Xiaohai's daughter-in-law is a spender. After the end of the year, the family doesn’t have much savings.”

Xiang Dong's face was not very good-looking: "In my opinion, let Xiao Han and Tan Hai separate! My cousin has given birth to two children, and Xiao Han is also in his twenties. It's time to get married! Hurry up and separate. After the family is separated, Xiaohan can save some money and come out here to build a house. Then, if there is a suitable girl, let's get married as soon as possible!"

Aunt: "Separate? The eldest daughter-in-law may not be willing."

Xiang Dong couldn't help rolling his eyes: "Of course she doesn't want to, the family is separated, and she has no share in the money Xiaohan earns! But, you are parents, and whether you want to separate or not, isn't it up to your parents? She is a daughter-in-law, what right does she have to say no?!"

Xiangdong is angry!Tan Hai's wife doesn't seem to be a magnanimous person either, this daughter-in-law also married the wrong one!However, there is no way to do this. Once good people are involved, many people will inevitably become small-bellied.

The grandma stretched out her hand and patted the grandpa, and the grandpa made a final decision: "Separation! We two old ones will follow Xiaohan, and you husband and wife will follow Xiaohan too! Just separate Xiaohai from his wife, I think Xiaohai's wife will be very willing." , hasn't she longed for a separation?"

Xiang Dong said: "Uncle, now that the family has money, why don't you build a second-class house next to Cousin Gu Yu's house. In this way, Xiao Han will be able to live comfortably in the future even if he gets married and has children!"

Uncle: "Well, I have thought about building a house for a long time. Now that there is a kiln factory, it is very convenient to buy blue bricks, so we will all start with blue bricks and tiles! In a few months, Xiaohan alone The monthly salary is five taels, and five months will be 50 taels! Adding the dividends once in the first half of the year, the money to build a second-entry house is enough!"

Xiang Dong: "That's all right. I will advance half a year's wages to Xiaohan. You can borrow money on the green bricks and blue bricks. You can pay back when you have the money! Let's divide the family now. It is better to separate the family before the spring plowing. The existing house Just distribute it to my cousin! Before the house is built, grandma and grandpa will move to Ningyuan to live, and uncle and aunt will go to work on the farm, so we can stay at Gu Yu’s house for a while. !"

Grandma nodded vigorously: "I think it's okay, the old man and I will come to Ningyuan to live in Ningyuan for a few months, and enjoy the blessing of our daughter!"
