Years ago, master Meng San and the Zhou family went back to Beijing. They came back from their hometown after receiving a letter from the old man. As for Meng Guangpeng's generation, they didn't come back.

After three years' absence, Ruhui felt that the Zhou family had changed a lot. The most obvious performance is that the clothes are also changed into bright colors such as bright red, unlike the previous Twilight colors such as crow green and red sandalwood.

When Ruhui saw her like this, she thought that she really needed a new environment. This is not, Zhou came out of the shadow of the past.

Because Meng Shangshu retired, the posts received by the government were less, and the social intercourse was naturally reduced. Similarly, this part of the expenses will be saved. When it comes to the Lantern Festival, there are more than two thousand taels of silver on the book.

After the Lantern Festival, Mr. Meng called Mr. Meng and Mr. Meng to the upper court.

Shiyin's sister and brother all went to sleep, and mengranxi came back. Look, some are not good-looking.

Ruhui asked, "how? But what's wrong? " This time, the old master asked them to go over. It should only be about the separation of families. It's not that fast. There should be no argument.

"No, it went well. Uncle and uncle agreed to separate. It's just that I'm confused. " Always looking forward to separation, but really to this step, the heart is very heavy.

Ruhui was relieved and asked, "did the old man say anything about the separation?" I'm afraid the old lady is not willing to let them all move out.

Well, Meng ran Xi said: "the old master means to separate the family first, and we will move out after their two elders die. But after the separation, each room will be in charge of its own. " The old lady likes to be lively. If she's gone, I'm afraid she can't stand it.

"The old people are most afraid of leaving. It's very good to divide the production into different families." She wanted to move out, but she certainly didn't want to. After all, he was raised by Mr. Meng and his wife, and he has deep feelings for the two old people.

See such as Hui didn't say to move out, Meng ranxi relieved. But he knew that Ruhui didn't like Dafang and wanted to move out all the time.

It's good to live alone outside, but he can't bear the old man and the old lady.

After the first month, the Meng family called everyone over. Ruhui, too.

Meng Shangshu asked the housekeeper to read all the property in the house and said, "this house and the sacrificial field are both ancestral property. The rest of the industries are 70% big, and the remaining two are equally divided with three. "

The old man treated his three sons equally and did not lay particular stress on anyone. This industry is fairly distributed. However, the Meng family is not a rich and powerful family. Their property is limited. Apart from a house, a shop and 500 mu of good land, they have 6000 taels of silver.

It looks like a lot, but there are a lot of heirs in Er Fang and San Fang. Divided equally on each head, very few. And this is also the reason why Ruhui is not willing to fight. Instead of trying to figure out the family's industry, it's better to focus on business, so as to earn more.

Master Meng San and Meng ranxi have no opinions on this, so the separation is smooth.

However, Meng ranxi did not take the title deed and the title deed to transfer the ownership. Instead, he went to Meng Shangshu and said that he would let the two houses be divided.

There are no elders in Er Fang, only three brothers. But because of what happened in those years, Meng ranxi never gave aunt GUI and Meng Guangshu a good look. Even now, he has not changed his attitude. So the Meng family is separated, and he can't wait to get rid of them.

Meng Shangshu never liked the two brothers. Now there are no elders in the second room, and it's not wrong for Meng lahi to separate. Meng Shangshu nodded and said, "if you want to share it, share it!" Meng ranxi has been trained. He knows how to do many things, needless to say.

With the consent of mengshangshu, menrahi called two brothers of mengguangshu and told them about the separation.

Meng ranxi said: "today's separation, you also know what kind of industry the second housing will be divided into. Now, let's divide these things up! "

Meng Guangshu said: "three brothers, can we not separate?" When the family is separated, everything depends on itself.

The family didn't devote any resources to their two brothers, so Meng Guangshu is only a scholar. His younger brother Meng Guanghong is still a white man.

After Meng Guangshu failed again at the age of 18, he realized that there was no result in going on the exam, so he went to ask the old lady.

The old lady was the softest. For her second son's sake, she told Meng Shangshu about it. Before long, Meng Guangshu was working as a scribe in yingtianfu Yamen. Over the years, I've been promoted to a higher level.

The more you stay in yamen, the more you know how deep the water is. If you don't have any background, you are said to be able to get along well in the yamen, but it's hard to keep your job.

Mengran looked at him and said, "without my parents, there are only three of us left. Now we've all got a family and live together to make trouble. " Can he be willing to support the Meng Guangshu brothers.

Meng Guanghong said in a strange voice: "brother, why do you beg him? He's been trying to get us out of here for a long time, and now he won't miss the chance. "

Meng ranxi ignored Meng Guanghong and said to Meng Guangshu, "I'll give you 70% of these industries and 30% of them. Houses and shops have been priced. What do you want? "

Hearing this, Meng Guangshu looked up at Meng ranxi. In the Ming Dynasty, the concubines were more important than the concubines, so many families gave the concubines money to settle down after they got married. Like the Korean government, that's what it does. And menrahi suffered a loss when he divided his inheritance into three parts to their brothers.

As a result, without waiting for him to speak, Meng Guanghong said: "if the third brother is really generous, he should divide these industries equally. Anyway, the third sister-in-law has money, which is not bad. But our brothers will live on these industries. "

Meng Guangshu's face turned black: "shut up."

Meng ranxi didn't give Meng Guanghong a look in his eyes. He just said to Meng Guangshu, "go back and think about it, and then reply to me."

Meng Guangshu nodded and said, "good." With that, Meng Guanghong was dragged out.

Ruhui is in the back room and can hear the conversation clearly. After the two brothers left, Ruhui came out and said, "don't be angry. Meng Guangshu is a man of understanding." As for Meng Guanghong, she didn't pay attention at all. Up to now, I can't recognize my status. If I don't have the protection of the Meng family in the future, I will fall down sooner or later.

"I'm not angry." It's no use getting angry with them. If not for the sake of fame, he didn't want to give Meng Guanghong any money.

Even if not angry, Meng Lanxi will be in a bad mood. In order to make him happy, Ruhui said, "I haven't been to Fuyun restaurant for a long time. Tomorrow I'll go out to Babao duck and sauced pig's feet!"

Meng ran Xi shook his head and said, "it's not appropriate to just finish dividing the family. If you want to eat, I'll buy two tomorrow and bring them back

Ruhui chuckled: "which one is enough? A group brother can eat one by himself. " Half boy, eat poor Laozi. Although the group brother is less than ten years old, the appetite is not small.

Speaking of the children, Meng ranxi's mood was instantly good: "then buy four." The sauced pig's feet are really expensive. If you have four, you'll have to get rid of most of your salary. But now that his family is separated, he has no scruples about buying anything.

Meng Lanxi kept his word. The next day he came back with four sauced pig's feet. Tuan Ge'er showed his white teeth with joy.

At this time, the servant girl replied that Meng Guangshu and his brother had come.

Ruhui took several children into the inner room.

Meng ranxi looked at the two brothers with color on their faces, but he was a little surprised. Obviously, they must have had a fight when they went back yesterday.

"What have you decided?"

Meng Guangshu said, "third brother, I want a house with 100 mu of good land. Third brother, I'll make it up to you. "

In order to avoid trouble, Meng Shangshu estimated the price of all the industries he was going to divide. The property and silver that Er Fang got together are about twenty thousand taels. In this way, each of the two brothers can only get three thousand taels of silver. The price of the three houses plus one hundred mu of paddy fields is 4700 Liang.

The reason why Meng Guangshu wanted a house and property is very simple. Once he had a house, he would have a place to stay. Moreover, the location of the house is good and large, and it will be easy to live in when you have children and grandchildren. However, the paddy fields in the suburbs can't be bought by money.

Meng ranxi asked Meng Guanghong, "what about you?"

"I want a shop and a hundred acres of paddy field. Poor money, I'll supply you. "

Murashi nodded and said, "yes. You will give me the price difference tomorrow morning, and I will go to Yamen with you to transfer the ownership of the property. "

As a matter of fact, he suffered a great loss from such separation. But the most important thing for an official is his reputation. If he wants to go far in his official career, he can't bear the name of treating his younger brother harshly because of 800 taels of silver.

Ruhui asked Meng Lanxi, "can they really get such a large sum of money?"

"I don't know. It should be. If they can't take it out, they won't be given the house and shop. " In Ruhui's dowry, there is a house with five entrances, which is not only big, but also very elegant, and Meng ranxi likes it very much. Besides, the house is close to the Yamen. So Meng Guangshu wanted the house, and he agreed to it without thinking about it.

In the early morning of the next day, Meng Guangshu and his brothers each gave Meng ranxi a box of gold spindles.

After confirming that the gold was real and the quantity was right, Meng ran Xi took them to the Yamen to handle the transfer.

Looking at these gold spindles, Ruhui said with emotion: "aunt GUI is really hidden!" You should know that Aunt GUI is famous for her thrift in the mansion these years. She is reluctant to throw away her white clothes. But I didn't expect to hold such a large amount of silver.

The ear of wheat said, "yes! These years, she also took her own embroidery to sell! I thought she was really short of money

Ruhui said with a smile, "if not, she can't keep the gold." Thanks to master Meng er's early death, aunt GUI can't be so comfortable in Meng's house with his support.

PS: no one took the children with him in the afternoon. He didn't write until his father came back from work. I'm sorry to keep you waiting.
