I live in the countryside

Chapter 152 Brothers Discord (1 more)
Xiao Zongming's reaction was so strong that he, who was always good-tempered, said that he couldn't be a brother.

Uncle Qiao probably realized that he had said the wrong thing. He looked at Qiao Zongming, then at Grandma Qiao who didn't say a word, and seemed to not feel that the words were wrong. She just kept trying to persuade them not to quarrel.

But his temper has always been tough at home. Even if he realizes that he has said something wrong, he can't bow his head and admit his mistake.

Chen Mei and the third aunt both had ugly faces, "For 20 years of hard work for the old Qiao's family, but in the end it was said that it was not my family, that's okay. In the past 20 years, everything I did was for pigs. From now on, you For family matters, don't look for daughters-in-law like us."

Chen Mei and Third Aunt turned their heads and went directly to sit in the upper hall.

Although he was angry, he didn't really care about it. It's just that at this time, he had to leave the matter to Uncle Qiao and Qiao Zongming.

Uncle Qiao was choked up by Chen Mei and the third aunt. He originally wanted to lose his temper, but thinking about the important matter of coming back today, he didn't want to quarrel with Chen Mei and the third aunt for the time being, so he said to Qiao Zongming in a blunt tone: "The family Land, what are you going to do?"

Qiao Churan doesn't want to give Uncle Qiao any face anymore. She really doesn't understand that the neighbors in the village can help each other even if they are not brothers. They all seem to be doing well, but they are so cold-blooded and ruthless inside.

Qiao Zongming then heard Qiao Zongming say: "It's not a problem for Ranran to grow melons on the land at home. Many people in the village are willing to grow melons. It's not a matter of disagreement between elder brothers. Besides, you have been away all year round and have never planted a piece of land at home. If you don’t understand the situation in the village, it’s pointless to say this, so what’s the point of coming back to say this now?”

Just now, Uncle Qiao's words were too much, Qiao Zongming suppressed his unhappiness, and spoke a little harder.

It's impossible for him to stop his daughter's affairs just because Uncle Qiao disagreed.

Uncle Qiao said: "What is unreasonable? I am the eldest son of the family. After my father passed away, no one in the family will take care of me. Naturally, I will take care of it."

Hearing this, Qiao Zongming felt angry in his heart: "No one cares about the family? What do you care about, my family's affairs, or how is your mother at home?"

Qiao Zongming was also somewhat dissatisfied with how Uncle Qiao and Uncle Qiao had barely cared about Grandma Qiao or cared about Grandma Qiao's life in recent years. Now that Uncle Qiao said this, it directly ignited his anger today. anger.

"You said no one cares about it? For so many years, what am I at home? The land at home has been planted for half a lifetime. When did you plant seedlings and harvest rice, and when did you take care of a piece of land at home? Brother, what are you saying now? , but I have taken all the credit for the busy work on the land at home these years."

"I didn't mean that!" Uncle Qiao was startled by Qiao Zongming's tough attitude, and said in a deep voice, "I didn't mean to take credit for you, I am also a member of the family, and the land matter is the Qiao family's business. Our brothers are all my father's children, and the land is the only property left by my father. I have to say a few words. If you do this, you must at least ask me what I mean."

"Then what do you mean." Qiao Zongming is not a fool, he knows what his elder brother wants to do, he just wants to fight for his son Qiao Yihui's family land and leave a way out.

"I'm not going around the corner anymore." Uncle Qiao's voice was not emotionally ups and downs: "Although I have gone to live in the county, Zong Zhao and I also share the land at home. You can do whatever you want now, but you can't share the two of us. move."

What Uncle Qiao didn't say was that if he moved, he would pay the rent as he did for the land in the village, just as Qiao Churan also paid the rent for Third Aunt's land.

The Qiao family now has twelve acres of dry land, divided into four, and he can still occupy three acres of land. According to the high land rent, it will cost tens of thousands of dollars a year.

Besides, even if it is not rented to Qiao Churan, there may be other development paths in the future, and he doesn't want to let it out for nothing.

Although he didn't say this, everyone present didn't know what Uncle Qiao meant.

Although Qiao Zongming knew the meaning of his elder brother in his heart, when he really heard what Uncle Qiao said, he still felt chilled. He didn't expect that his brother would really want to tear himself apart for these things on this day.

He looked at Uncle Qiao: "Zong Zhao, you mean that too?"

Uncle Qiao lowered his head: "Eldest brother is the eldest son. Dad is gone. He has the final say on family affairs."

"Okay." Qiao Zongming nodded: "Since you say so, let me talk about it, let's not talk about axioms, just talk about the truth of our family. When Dad was still there, our brothers also separated. Well, the land at home will be divided in a while. My brothers and I will each start a family. The land and the village have been notarized. The old house, the old house, and even the land of the latrine were all given to you. I have no objection with the third child. At that time, you also agreed to this division, saying that you don’t want a share of the land at home. Now Dad has only left for a few days. Years, doesn’t that count?”

"One moment and another moment." Uncle Qiao insisted: "At that time, Dad was also concerned about you being ignorant and uneducated, so you could only farm for the rest of your life, so he made this decision, but now times have changed, and even the third child has gone out to work. , the situation has long been different, there are four brothers in our family, so is it possible that they are still so clearly divided?"

"What about the notarized land?" Qiao Zongming asked again.

There are rules and regulations on how to deal with the land in the village, and it is not possible to redistribute the land between brothers.

Generally speaking, unmarried sons do not have their own land, and they live with their parents, brothers and sisters-in-law. The land is not redistributed until they get married and start a business.

The sons who start a family independently and leave the rural household registration do not have their own land, and what they can get is only the land of the old house given by their parents. landing.

If you have land before and change from a rural household registration to an urban household registration, your own land will be freely distributed, and most people will generally transfer it to other brothers of the clan for use, and the land use right will be re-notarized.

The current situation of Uncle Qiao and Uncle Qiao is just arguing.

When they got married, they had already left the rural household registration, and in the countryside, they did not have the right to use collectively cultivated land at all.

"It's all notarized land in the village. It's not a simple matter for us brothers to settle." Uncle Qiao thought that Qiao Zongming was persuaded, but because he was entangled in the issue of collective land use rights, he spoke softly for a few minutes. Point: "Or we brothers, verbal agreement is also acceptable, and there is no need to pay attention to those official documents."

After saying this, Chen Mei and the third aunt who were sitting in the front hall almost fell backwards in anger.

It’s really easy to say, when the land was worthless, I didn’t see you coming back to help, but now that the value of the land has risen, you are the first to run back, and you are still a teacher. With this appearance, I don’t know what you can teach students.

Chen Mei almost lost her composure, she wanted to get up to argue with Uncle Qiao, but was held back by the third aunt.

Hearing this, Qiao Zongming smiled, threw away the last puff of cigarette in his hand, and crushed it on the ground. He, who has always been soft-tempered, became a little bit tougher: "I don't agree with this matter." .”

"What did you say!"

When Grandma Qiao heard this, her face turned pale: "Then there is already your elder brother and younger brother's territory, how can you monopolize it all by yourself, Zong Ming, do you want to show others a joke because of this joke between you brothers? "

Qiao Zongming glanced at Grandma Qiao: "Mom, don't meddle in this matter."

Facing Uncle Qiao's and Uncle Qiao's uneasy expressions, Qiao Zongming said, "Don't say that your statement is unreasonable. The third child and I both have the same idea. Our Qiao family doesn't have such a statement, and Qingxi Village doesn't have such a statement. Even if I agree Now, can the rest of Old Qiao's family agree?"

The cultivated land in the village is divided in this way, which is fair and just.

If Uncle Qiao and Uncle Qiao set a precedent, in the future, people from Old Qiao's family and even the whole Qingxi Village would come back to make trouble after seeing the changes in the land, what would it be like?

Not to mention that Uncle Qiao is unreasonable, and the village will not do this.

He refused flatly, and Uncle Qiao was stunned for a long time without any response.

He suddenly felt that something had changed between himself and his always weak and obedient brother.

Qiao Zongming didn't look at Uncle Qiao's face, and said directly: "My third son and I have never thought about dealing with the land in this way. We will never touch the land that Dad allocated to you in the old house until we die. If you insist This means, if you don’t agree with what I said, please invite the clans of Lao Qiao’s family to gather together for a meeting to discuss this matter, and whether you will do this. According to your statement, all the land of our Lao Qiao’s family must be Redistribution, not just our family."
