Chapter 54: How can parents not live with their eldest son when the family is divided?

Shen Xue was afraid that Old Lady Shen was still angry with her, so she didn't dare to say a word when she came out of the house. She was slapped by the old woman and there was a mark on her face.

She was sitting there peacefully, but was suddenly pulled out by her father to apologize. Shen Xue was reluctant, but still whispered, "Grandma, I'm sorry."

All the mistakes are blamed on her. The old woman wants to divide the family property, what does it have to do with her?

"Mother, look, Xiaoxue knows she's wrong, so don't mention the division of the family. If you're still angry, just beat this girl up. If you feel tired of doing it yourself, your son will do it."

If the daughter gets beaten, she will only feel pain for a few days at most. But if the family really splits up, how will the three rooms of the family survive?

The eldest and second elder brothers both have sons, but he has no son. Without a son, there is less labor force, and with less labor force, there are fewer work points.

With so few work points, how much food would their three rooms get at the end of the year? He was afraid that he wouldn't even be able to eat half full.

Uncle Shen, the second uncle, and the third uncle all don't want to split up the family. If they do, without their parents' support, their lives will be difficult. They don't think their wives can manage the household well.

Uncle Shen and the others knew very well what kind of person their daughter-in-law was.

They don't want to split up, but their wives do.

When the mother-in-law said the word "separation of the family", Zhang Cuicui and the others began to think about it. Separation of the family is good, because after the separation, they can be the masters of the family themselves.

There is no daughter-in-law in the world who likes to be oppressed by her mother-in-law. They all want to be the master of the house.

My mother-in-law is right, it is indeed good news.

Zhang Cuicui was happy in her heart, but pretended to be sad. "Mom, why do we have to divide the family? It's so nice for the whole family to eat from the same pot. The house is lively every day. Is there something wrong with my daughter-in-law? Tell me and I will change it."

Shen Shuyu glanced at her auntie and thought, it must be hard for her to pretend.

Afraid that I couldn't help laughing, I even pinched myself and my arms turned red.

Li Caixia couldn't hide her thoughts and smiled as she spoke, "Oh, mother, we live together in harmony, why do we need to separate the family? Is it because I usually speak too loudly and disturb you? I will change. It's better not to separate the family. I am happy to live with my old lady."

Shen Shuyu: I don’t know what misunderstanding my second aunt has about the four words “harmony and harmony”.

Liu Pandi found her mother-in-law particularly pleasing tonight. She hesitated, "Mom, they say that as long as the parents are still alive, the family will not be divided. We have never thought about dividing the family."

They all know that what the mother-in-law said will not change, so they only say nice things.

Uncle Shen and the others were quite satisfied with what their wives said. Fortunately, they all knew what was going on and did not continue to agree with their mother's words.

The son and daughter-in-law both said they didn't want to split up the family. The son was hers, so how could she not understand what they were thinking?

After living with my daughters-in-law for more than ten years, I still can’t tell what they are thinking!

"Your father and I have decided to separate the family business. We will call Erzhu to come as a witness tomorrow. You don't need to say anything more."

Uncle Shen and the others wanted to say something, but Old Man Shen slapped the table and said, "When a tree grows big, it branches out; when a son grows up, he branches out. You are all going to be grandparents soon, and we two old people can't take care of you forever.

Sooner or later the family will be divided, so why not do it now?

We have been able to work well in the past few years. After the family is divided, you don't need to take care of us two old people. Your mother and I will live with Shu Yu. You just need to take care of yourselves.

When we can no longer work in a few years, each of the three of you will have to give us 50 kilograms of food and 15 yuan per year.

If we get sick, you three families will have to take turns to take care of us.

The house will be divided according to where you live now. There is only one pot, which will be left for the two of us old people to use. You can buy other pots.

All the remaining belongings in the house were divided equally among the four families, and the money in the public house was also divided equally.

As for the vegetables in the vegetable garden, we should eat them together and take care of the garden together, and then divide the garden again in the spring of next year."

Old man Shen said everything he needed to say in one breath.

"Dad, I am the eldest in the family. It is unreasonable for parents not to live with their eldest son when the family is divided.

And Shu Yu, as an uncle, it is my duty to take care of my niece."

Uncle Shen had no objection to my father's assignment, but when he heard that my father wanted to live with his eldest niece, he became dissatisfied.

"Yes, Dad, as the eldest, we naturally have to take care of you two. I have always treated Shu Yu as my own daughter, and it is only natural for her to be with our eldest wife. How can we let you live alone!"

My parents-in-law are both capable. If they live with their eldest daughter-in-law, their life will be much easier. My eldest niece is a hunter. If she lives with her, they won't have to worry about meat in the future.

The second and third wives also had the same idea, and all of a sudden the old couple and Shen Shuyu became popular.

"Brother, sister-in-law, you are too careless in taking care of the elderly and children. If Dad, Mom and Shu Yu lived with you, would they be able to live happily?

In my opinion, Dad, Mom and Shu Yu should live with our second wife."

Liu Pandi didn't want to eat with her parents-in-law at all, and she hated her niece Shen Shuyu very much. But thinking of their usefulness, she said, "It's most appropriate for Daddy and Mom and Shuyu to live with our third room. I cook delicious food and work efficiently, so I will definitely take good care of Daddy and Mom and Shuyu."

Shen Xue pulled her mother's clothes hard. Was her mother's brain stuck in the door? The old woman finally took the initiative to say that the family would be divided, and she still wanted to live with the old woman.

Knowing clearly that she and Shen Qiuyu don't get along, she still strives to get Shen Shuyu to eat with their third room. If Shen Shuyu really wants to live with their third room, how can she live a good life?

Shen Shuyu leaned lazily in the chair, without saying a word, just watching the three aunts weaving stories.

The three daughters-in-law rushed to speak, making Old Lady Shen's ears hurt. She slammed her hand on the table and said, "Be quiet, all of you. Why are you shouting? Your father and I had a headache or a fever, and we needed you to pour us a glass of water. You two have been staying indoors for a long time. Why are you pretending to be filial now?

We old couple will live with Guaibao, it is settled now, Erzhu will come over tomorrow to be a witness, and we will eat separately tonight."

When the mother-in-law got angry, Zhang Cuicui and the others quieted down.

Judging from the expressions of my parents-in-law, they seem determined not to live with them.

Uncle Shen felt very uncomfortable because his parents didn't live with them. People who didn't know him would think that he, as the eldest son, was unfilial to his parents.

Fortunately, his parents did not live with him, the eldest son, nor did they live with his second and third brothers, so he felt a little more balanced.

The old couple has three sons, but none of them wants to follow them. People outside cannot say that the three brothers are unfilial.

Shen Jiabao, Jiawei, Jiaguo, and Shen Qiu all don't want to split up. If they do, they will be four families.

Everything was fine during dinner. I couldn't understand why my grandparents went back to their room for a while after dinner and then came out to talk about dividing the family.
