Transmigration: To Be His Man

Chapter 123 Old House Division



Lei Xiangzhi did not seem to notice their uneasiness, "So, our family has a total of 15 mu of paddy field and 10 mu of dry field. Dad, Second Brother, Third Brother, Fourth Brother and I can each be divided into 3 mu of paddy field and 2 mu of dry field. "Father, how should we split the rest? Tell me."

Lei Daqiang thought for a moment, then said: "Everyone still lives in their rooms, and the garden and the kitchen can be shared, and the money from home ?? Your Fourth Brother's marriage must be decided this year. At the latest, you should marry tomorrow in spring. At that time, you will have to spend a lot of money. Wait until your Fourth Brother gets married, then we can split the money. Fifth brother, what do you think? "

Lei Xiangzhi nodded his head, "Father is right, Fourth Brother is not young anymore, it's time for us to get married."

"Yes." Lei Daqiang was very satisfied with his son's filial piety, and laughed out loud, "As for the other small items, they are fine, but as for the farm tools, bowls, chopsticks, etc.

"Alright, I'll go and invite Precinct Head now." Lei Xiangzhi said.

As Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xianglee stood at the entrance of the courtyard, they could guess what Lei Xiangzhi, Lei Daqiang and Madam Du were discussing. Seeing Lei Xiangzhi coming out, the two of them looked at him nervously, afraid that they would hear an answer they did not want to hear.

Lei Xiangzhi smiled and nodded at them.

Lei Xiangyi heaved a sigh of relief, "Fifth Brother, you stay at home, I'll go and invite Precinct Head over."

"I'll go invite Big Bro and Big Sis over." Lei Xianglee said.

"Okay, thank you third brother and Fourth Brother." Lei Xiangzhi smiled.

Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xianglee left quickly.

"Eh? "Where are you going?" Lei Xiangren walked out of the hall and saw Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xianglee leaving happily, so he shouted for them.

But no one paid him any attention.

"Fifth Brother, what's the matter?" Lei Xiangren hurriedly asked Lei Xiangzhi.

Lei Xiangzhi said: "Second Brother, that's a good thing. Do you want to go and find second sister?"

"Oh, then I'll go now." Lei Xiangren slipped away like a wisp of smoke, looking for Mrs Zhao, who was talking to someone else.

"Fifth brother." Lei Chuntao walked out of her room and looked at Lei Xiangzhi worriedly.

Lei Xiangzhi doted on this twin sister a lot, so he rubbed her head and smiled gently, "Don't worry, fifth brother will take care of this properly."

When Lei Xianglee arrived at Leisurely Dwelling House, Qin Mian and Lei Tia was making dumplings at home. Lei Tia rolled dumplings, Qin Mian made dumplings, the two of them had a tacit understanding of each other, in the sieve, it was filled with fat white dumplings.

Seeing that Lei Xianglee was smiling, Qin Mian joked: "Fourth Younger Brother got the money already?"

"Sorry, sister-in-law." Lei Xianglee scratched his head in embarrassment, "Fifth Brother has already persuaded Father and Mother to go together, I have come to call Big Bro and Big Sis over as witnesses."

"Alright." Qin Mian brushed off the flour on his hands and stood up, "Fifth Brother does indeed do things cleanly. Do you know how it is divided? "

Lei Xianglee shook his head, "I didn't have the time to ask, but I believe that Fifth Brother will take care of it."

Lei Tia poured hot water from a kettle and washed his hands. As soon as autumn or winter came, Qin Mian's hands would feel cold, and he would never let Qin Mian get wet with cold water.

After washing their hands, the three of them went to the old house.

On the other side, Lei Xiangyi also brought Precinct Head to his house.

As the villagers saw the commotion, they made some guesses in their hearts. A few women brought Lei Daqiang to the neighbors' homes to visit them, in order to grasp the first hand news in time.

Qin Mian, Lei Tia, Precinct Head, Lei Daqiang, Madam Du, Madam Wei, Lei Xiangren, Mrs Zhao, Lei Xiangyi, Madam Qian, Lei Xianglee and Lei Xiangzhi, a total of twelve people sat inside the hall. Lei Chuntao and Maidservant Xiao Xi were watching over the three children, Lei Dabao, Lei Er Bao and Lei Xinxin.

When they saw that they had even called for Precinct Head, Lei Xiangyi, Madam Qian and Lei Xianglee's eyes were filled with joy, they immediately guessed that this was a branch family! His expression immediately changed. With a dark face, he decided to listen to what the others had to say.

Mrs Zhao and he were indeed husband and wife. They also saw the inkling and nervously looked at him. "Hubby ??"

Lei Xiangren patted her hands, showing her that she was calm. His eyes flickered with a sharp light, vigilantly patrolling everyone's face. The branch family was separated, but once there was something that displeased him, he would not let it go.

Lei Daqiang bowed towards Precinct Head, "I'll have to trouble you again Precinct Head."

Precinct Head waved his hand: "Haha, it's nothing, not worth mentioning."

Lei Daqiang raised his voice: "Everyone is here, listen to me. As you can see, we only have a few rooms. Now that both the Madam Wei and the Madam Qian were happy, there would be two more people at home soon. When Lao Si gets married, the house would be even more crowded. The so-called "tree big branch", today I made the decision to split the family. Precinct Head will be the witness and write down the family documents. "

He hadn't reached the point yet, so no one interrupted him.

Lei Daqiang continued: "Since you want to divide them, divide them up one time. Second Bro, Third Bro, Lao Si and Fifth Bro all separated, while I, Madam Du, Madam Wei, Chuntao and Old Fifth Bro passed by together.

Lei Xiangren immediately jumped out, "Father! What do you mean? It took us brothers a great deal of effort to support the Fifth Brother to become Elementary Scholars, but we weren't even able to get close to it and ended up separating like this? That's not appropriate, is it? "

"That's right!" Mrs Zhao curled her lips, the corners of her eyes slanted upwards as she glanced at Lei Xiangzhi, "Fifth Brother, you and Father and Mother were muttering in our room for a long time just now ?? the branch family's matter, could it be you ??" At least she still remembered that Lei Xiangzhi's identity was different now, hence she didn't dare to say it out loud to offend him.

Precinct Head looked straight into his eyes, but did not interrupt.

Qin Mian and Lei Tia both looked ahead, as if their minds were wandering.

"Fifth Brother, is that really you?" Lei Xiangren looked injured, as he looked at Lei Xiangzhi in disbelief.

Lei Xiangzhi's expression did not change, "Second Brother, can you listen to what I have to say first?"

Lei Xiangren said with a straight face and waved his hand, "Speak!"

"The matter of the branch family was indeed brought up by me to Father and Mother." Lei Xiangzhi said, "Other than the reason Father mentioned just now, there is another important reason. With so many people living together, they would always stumble over things and become more intimate with each other if they are separated. I naturally remember that all these years, I was able to pursue my studies without worrying about anything else. It was all thanks to father, mother, big brother, sister-in-law, Second Brother, second sister, third brother, third sister, Fourth Brother and little sister's support. Without you two, there would be no me, Lei Xiangzhi, today. "

Lei Xiangren's expression was slightly gentler, "It's good that you understand."

"I knew that Fifth Brother was not that kind of person." Mrs Zhao had an expression of satisfaction towards Lei Xiangzhi.

Qin Mian looked at Lei Xiangren and his wife in disdain. Who couldn't tell that Lei Xiangzhi's gratitude was just for the sake of bringing Lei Xiangren and Mrs Zhao along?

"I asked Third Brother and Fourth Brother for their opinion. They are all willing to part families." Lei Xiangzhi said leisurely, "If Second Brother agrees to part family, I am willing to give Second Brother a hundred silver to support Big Treasure and Er Bao to study. If Second Brother wants to serve Father and Mother with me, of course I would be willing to do so.

Other than Qin Mian and Lei Tia, everyone else was shocked.

One hundred silver taels!

Lei Daqiang and Madam Du's first reaction was to regret that they did not agree to the division of the family. However, after thinking about it for a while, they knew that their son would have more silver for an official.

Madam Wei looked at Qin Mian and meaningfully and quickly withdrew his gaze. No matter how much was divided, she would always follow Lei Daqiang, and Lei Daqiang would never be separated from her, so she wouldn't suffer too much loss. The most important thing for her right now was to have the baby safely.

Lei Xiangren and Mrs Zhao were so happy that their hearts were thumping hard.

Madam Qian's heart jumped as she became restless. In her opinion, Fifth Brother was too biased. Since she had already given Lei Xiangren a hundred silver, she should also give her a hundred silver.

Lei Xiangyi pressed her hand down and gave her a warning look.

Lei Xianglee was as calm as Lei Xiangyi. The two brothers understood everything clearly. The reason why Lei Xiangzhi gave Lei Xiangren the one hundred silver was not because he was closer to Lei Xiangren, but the opposite.

As to where Lei Xiangzhi had obtained this one hundred silver, in that moment, no one thought of asking.

"Second Brother, are you sure?" Lei Xiangzhi took a sip of tea and asked with a smile.

Lei Xiangren was hesitant. A hundred silver was not a small sum, but after Lei Xiangzhi became an official, he would be able to get even more.

Mrs Zhao panicked, afraid that he would refuse. She tugged at his sleeve, lowering her voice and anxiously asked: "Husband, what are you hesitating for? Hurry up and agree! We can't even earn a hundred taels of silver in two lifetimes! With these 100 silver coins, we can build a big house and send Da Bao and Er Bao to the academy. As long as we nurture them properly, they can become an official in the future! "

The last sentence moved Lei Xiangren, and allowed him to see another path that was even brighter and wider. Yeah, why was he staring at Fifth Brother? In the end, his little brother wasn't as intimate as his son, and relying on his little brother would be better than relying on his son!

Qin Mian pretended to drink the tea, and with a smile on his lips, he silently praised Mrs Zhao and lit the wax for Lei Xiangren.

Lei Xiangren didn't have time to think about it carefully, as he pretended to sigh and nod his head in frustration, "Big Treasure, if you still don't enlighten me, then it's too late, I really need this money ?? ?? Okay, I agree to split the family. "However, now that the branch family is here, we can no longer show our filial piety in front of father and mother ??"

"Yes, Father, Mother." Madam Qian looked at Lei Daqiang and Madam Du unwillingly, wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes.

Qin Mian could clearly see her secretly pinching her thigh as she tried her best to restrain her laughter.

Lei Tia silently caressed his back.

Lei Daqiang then continued to host the branch family, "Ol 'Five spent money and bought a few acres of land for our family. We have a total of 15 mu of paddy fields and 10 mu of dry land. Second Brother, Third Brother, Lao Si, and Fifth Brother, respectively, split into five acres of paddy field and three mu of dry land ?? House... The ducks and the chickens and the pigs and the ducks and the pigs and the ducks and the pigs and the ducks and the pigs and the ducks and the pigs and the ducks and the pigs and the pigs and the ducks and the pigs Agricultural Tools... In the end, Lao Si, Fifth Elder and Chuntao all did not get married, so the family's wealth was temporarily not divided.

Lei Xiangyi and Lei Xianglee had no objections. Lei Xiangren would immediately receive a hundred silver coins, but he wouldn't care about this "small amount of money." He straightforwardly nodded, unable to stop the smile on his face.
