Concubine's three acres of pastoral garden

Chapter 213 I Can't Be Overwhelmed (1)
Lian Xiu also recalled it, and asked suspiciously: "You mean they want to separate?"

Zhu said: "It's very possible that the three of them are old and not young, and we have to collect the money. Do you think they would be willing, who doesn't want to be the master of their own life."

Lian Xiu became annoyed, and said: "If the three houses are divided, I have to buy three houses, and no matter what, I have to bring some property, which is not a small amount of expenses!"

Zhu said: "Then what can I do, I have no reason to live with you for the rest of my life, if I really want to open my mouth and say that the family is separated, can you not let me go out?"

Lian Xiu sat there silently, and said after a long time: "Why do you think they want to divide at this time, regardless of whether it is early or late? How strange do you think!"

Zhu said: "I think so too, Lian Pu is the most brainless of the three, but today he is the most yelling, and there is still the fifth child, usually you are the best to him, but today he also came, and he is still here." I don't see any embarrassment, as if I have some dissatisfaction with us."

Lian Xiu said: "Could it be that you were instigated by someone?"

Mrs. Zhu said: "It's the youngest who instigates me to choose. Seeing that he usually doesn't fight or grab, in fact, he has more eyes than anyone else. I think he knew what happened back then..."

Seeing that Lian Xiu's face suddenly became extremely gloomy, he quickly changed his words: "Well, I'm just saying it casually, in fact, the brothers and sisters deserved it..."

Lian Xiu's eyes flickered coldly and said: "It's good that you know, you are not without a share in what happened back then, you'd better keep your mouth shut and don't talk about everything!"

Mrs. Zhu quickly said: "Okay, I understand, let's talk about your three younger brothers."

Lian Xiu was still angry and said: "It's no big deal, I'll tell them tomorrow that it's just..."

After speaking, he got up and left Zhu's bedroom, leaving Zhu staring at his back.

After dinner the next day, Lian Xiu called the three of them to his study, and said, "I heard that you think the amount of money is too small?"

Seeing Lian Xiu, Lian Pu was no longer as arrogant in front of Mrs. Zhu, he opened his mouth and said nothing, but Lian Zhao said: "Yes, brother, you and sister-in-law have calculated clearly for us, how many months each servant has. How much money and the master spend, we would not starve to death with this money, but there is no extra cost at all, and we are not too young, so we must have some personal relationships, not to mention anything else, we... …I don’t even have money to go out to drink flowers and wine!”

Lian Ke and Lian Pu couldn't help laughing secretly.

Lian Xiu gave Lian Zhao a hard look, and said, "What kind of flower wine should you drink? You're the only one with more ideas!"

Lian Zhao said stubbornly: "It's not just me, look at third brother, Gong Ze couldn't give the teacher apprentice ceremony even if he wanted to be a teacher, so lose more people in our Lianfu!"

Lian Xiu turned his gaze to Lian Ke, and said, "Oh, so this is your idea, third child!"

Lian Ke said: "I can't tell whose idea it is. The three of us feel that it is not convenient at hand. We just want to discuss it with my elder brother and see what to do about it."

Lian Xiu said: "What can I do, if I want to increase the quota, I will increase it for you."

Lian Ke laughed and said, "Okay, I want to give Gong Ze's teacher a set of coral tea set as a teacher's apprenticeship gift. I wonder if my elder brother can include it in next month's case?"

Lian Xiu was stunned, and said, "What kind of teacher would you like to give a coral tea set as a gift?!"

Lian Ke said: "It's Mr. Ruan, the teacher of your future son-in-law, the third prince. If he is willing to accept the coral tea set, it is probably to borrow your face."

Lian Xiudao: "For a little baby, it is enough to learn poetry and prose in ethnology first. Why do you find such a good teacher?"

Lian Ke said: "Brother, you also know that I don't have a business mind. Gong Ze is also like me. He likes to write and draw since he was a child. I don't think he can eat like his family. Why don't he take off his business status?" Let him take a look at his official career, maybe our family can produce a first-rank official or something."

"Take off the business registration?" Lian Xiu said: "Taking off the business registration means leaving the Lian family. Do you want to separate the family?"

Lian Ke said: "If the eldest brother agrees, it's not impossible."

Lian Xiu sniffled and smiled, and said, "As expected..." He looked at Lian Pu and Lian Zhao, and said, "What about you? That's what you mean too?"

Lian Pu looked at Lian Zhao, and said, "Brother, we are all at this age, if we spend any more time, we will spend our whole life with you."

Lian Xiu raised his head and said, "I really let your sister-in-law talk about it..."

After pausing for a while, he looked at the three of them again, and said, "It's not impossible to separate families, but why did it come up so suddenly? Could it be that someone said something?"

Lian Zhaodao: "Who can say anything about our own affairs, it's not because we feel inconvenient and want to discuss with elder brother."

Lian Xiu was still suspicious, and glanced at Lian Ke, and said, "I've been busy with things these past few years, and I haven't had much time to talk to you. I didn't expect you to have your own ideas."

Lian Ke said: "Brother doesn't have to be like this. Even if we split up, brothers are still brothers, so we won't be unfamiliar with each other."

Lian Pu and Lian Zhao also said, "Exactly."

Lian Xiu said: "Tell me, how do you want to divide."

Lian Zhao said: "How can the family be divided? There are cases to be found. The family property should be clearly displayed and divided into several shares. Everyone should take as many shares as possible."

Lian Xiu lowered his head and said, "Then how many copies do you think you should take?"

After he finished asking, even the three of Ke didn't speak.

Seeing this, Lian Xiu said again: "Why, don't you guys want to split up again?"

Lian Zhao hurriedly said, "No, that's not what we mean, we just want to tell my elder brother that it's a little hard to open my mouth."

Lian Xiudao: "The separation of families has been brought up. If there is anything you can't open your mouth, if you are embarrassed, I will give you a number. Since ancient times, there is a difference between concubines and concubines. You are all concubines. Divide the family property into ten shares, and the three of you will share one of them, what do you think?"

"The three of us get a share, and you get nine shares?!" Lian Pu and Lian Zhao said in surprise at the same time.

Even if Lian Xiu said that one of them would get one share, and the remaining seven would belong to Lian Xiu, they wouldn't be so shocked, but it was too rare for the three of them to get one share.

Lian Pu quit at that time, and shouted: "Brother, you are too much, don't you think the three of us together are not worth one-tenth of you?!"

Lian Zhao also said: "That's right, elder brother told us about the concubine, do you think that you are father's concubine if you become the patriarch? You were the same as us back then, if it weren't for the second brother and eldest sister...you could be the patriarch So, is it your turn to be in charge of the Lian family? Even though Dad asked you to be the housekeeper before he died, he didn't say he would make your house right and become the heir!"
