The girls from the Li family, who originally expressed their unwillingness to leave with them, became thoughtful after seeing these people agreeing without thinking.
It’s just that the longest married person here is only ten years. Basically, the husband’s family is not separated and he still lives with his parents-in-law.
They have no control over matters at home.
Even if you are willing, you are just thinking about it in your heart.
However, there was an example where I decided to tell my parents-in-law about the matter after I returned home to see what they wanted.
If they are willing to leave, it would be best. If not, then find a way to separate within ten days.
Of course, more often than not, like the men in the family, they felt that it was making a mountain out of a molehill.
As for their natal family, after seeing their attitude, the eldest sister-in-law or mother-in-law will try to persuade them secretly.
However, the effect is not very ideal!
After the lively day, most of the girls who got married in Lijiaao went back with their families.
The few who were left behind by their mothers were persuaded by their parents' family again that night.
It was also in the evening of this day that the Li family's old house was officially divided into households without being separated under the witness of the elders of the Li clan.
You can count all the things in the Li family.
There are two bullock carts, one for each room.
The houses are not divided, who currently lives in them will belong to whom.
There was not much money left, and neither family wanted it, leaving it to Old Man Li and his wife to take care of themselves in their old age.
The old couple was very heartwarming and said that they would only keep two taels of the money, and the rest would be used by Zhengzi to pay for his exams in the future.
No matter where he gets in the examination, whether he is a child or a scholar, that's all.
In addition, the Li family has nine acres of paddy fields and ten acres of dry land.
As the eldest son, Li Dahai will support the old couple in the future, so they divide the land into six acres of paddy field and six acres of dry land.
They watched and divided the pots, pans, and grains at home.
As for the watermelons and strawberries grown in the big house, I don’t know how much they can be sold for at the moment, so I won’t divide them into three houses.
In recent years, Sanfang has spent a lot of money because of Li Zheng's studies.
Now that I have accepted Li Yuan's favor and the noodle stall is doing well, I will give 50% of the profit as of the end of this month to Dafang.
From now on, the money earned by each house belongs to each house.
In the future, if the three-bedroom family members live a comfortable life, the monthly pension money given to the elderly couple will be based on the village's standards.
If you are having a hard time, just let it go in the past three years.
However, if the couple suffers from headaches and fever, the money for medical treatment needs to be shared equally between the two houses.
As for the second room, everyone in the old house felt that they owed Li Jun, so there was no need to include him.
After the old couple finished talking about this and the three bedrooms had no objections, the documents for the separation of the family and not the separation of households were formally signed in triplicate.
The people in the big house felt that they had taken advantage. If Li Zheng passed the examination, they would be exempted from corvee and tax exemption.
Although they are currently separated, they cannot get a penny.
But not only do watermelons and strawberries, which can obviously make a lot of money, all the profits go to them, but half of Sanfang's monthly profits will also be given to them.
The third room also felt that they had made a profit. They had provided a scholar in the family over the years, and they knew how much money Li Zheng had spent on the family.
Apart from these, the money they earn from setting up stalls is visible to the naked eye, and they receive a lot of money every day.
Even if they only give half of the money for this month, they will still be able to save a lot before everyone leaves.
As for strawberries and watermelons, no one knows when they will mature and what price they will fetch.
And these things have always been taken care of by the people in the big house, so they have no right to ask for money.
If they can get a high price, at worst they will start planting next year!
Not to mention, they learned the craft from Li Yuan. From now on, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law can make a living by relying on this craft wherever they go.
The separation of the Li family went smoothly this time.
No one was jealous or uncomfortable. The whole family gathered together to have a lively meal, whether it was in the evening or the next morning.
After breakfast the next day, the two families didn't even share the rice, noodles, pots and pans, and went about their own business.
Those who should go to the fields should go to the fields, and those who should rush to the county town should rush to the county town.
Before leaving, Mrs. Ma specifically told Mrs. Ling: "Sister-in-law, if Xuejiao knows a few words, I will ask her to keep a daily profit record, and then roughly calculate the profit for the next month. What do you want here? When you go to Fucheng, remember to come to me and ask for money before you leave. I won't go back there specifically to avoid delaying business."
"Okay, there's no rush in this. You're busy with your work now. If you can't handle it, just tell me. I think Shu Niang isn't busy now, so it's okay to ask her to help at your stall for a few days. Then you just need to take care of it. She can eat just one meal without any extra wages."
"Well, they are all family members, I know. It's just that Zhengzi's father is still at home, so it's hard for him to eat alone. After you leave, sister-in-law, when you let Duozi and the others cook, remember to make an extra portion for him. Although we say We are separated, but in my opinion, it is no different from before. The rations are still kept together, you just use them. If it is not enough, I will buy it and ask someone to send it over."
"What are you talking about? It's not like you don't know how much food we have at home."
Mrs. Ling said, and then asked: "Zhengzi has an exam in April. Third brother and sister, are you really not going to go with us?"
Ma's house had no choice but to set up a noodle stall, so she shook her head: "No, I don't worry about him following Junzi. My mother said that Shaoan has a house in Fucheng, and it is said that it is very close to Gongyuan. I estimate that Shaoan will be there by then. Go with me. With them here, I can’t do anything except wash and cook. Instead of doing that, it’s better to stay in the county and earn more money.”
When Mrs. Ling heard this, she was about to ask her what she planned to do when the tribe was about to leave.
Ma continued: "Sister-in-law, I am going to wait until May to see the weather conditions before making a decision. If the weather gets hotter and the water becomes less and less, and business becomes difficult, we will go to Fucheng together. No matter whether Zhengzi can or not After being admitted as a scholar, we will set off from Fucheng and go to Luyang Prefecture with our parents. With the current situation in your family, you have to wait until the child is older before leaving. I guess that will happen next year, so temporarily the parents will be left by We’ll take care of it.”
Mrs. Ling was very moved when she heard this. Her eyes were swollen and she held Ma's hand tightly: "Third brother and sister, thank you!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? We are all a family. When we were in the county town, weren't you the one who took care of everything at home? Even if we took care of our parents, it would only be for a year and a half, and we would have to rely on you in the future. "
"Besides, although we have separated our families, I can see that your family has been divided a lot, but you and I both know what it will be like. Right now, my parents are spending almost all of their remaining money on Zhengzi's exam expenses, so you guys I don’t have a penny, and I feel so ashamed. That is to say, sister-in-law, you don’t care about us as much as we do. I am really grateful to you. "
