Parents are busy farming

Zhang Wang made a small pot alone to cook millet porridge for Zhang Chunyue.

Others she still uses cornmeal.

Liu Jiancai went to see Zhang Chunyue. After entering the house, he took out two packets of brown sugar and handed them to her.

Zhang Chunyue felt happy after seeing this, and said with a smile: "I heard your conversation outside. How much did you spend this time?"

Liu Jiancai patted his head and said quietly to Zhang Chunyue: "Yesterday, my father-in-law gave me one hundred cents. I was afraid that my mother-in-law would find out that he gave it secretly, so I never had time to tell you. This time, I spent a total of seventy cents, and there is still thirty cents left. . In addition, Miss Ye Wu gave me a deposit of 100 yuan yesterday, so don’t worry, you still have money!”

Zhang Chunyue already understood why his sister-in-law spoke so eccentrically, "She probably thought that the one hundred cash deposit was what the boss spent!" ’

"I have something to tell you, please think about it!" Zhang Chunyue said after thinking for a while.

Liu Jiancai is looking at the beauty of his daughter! After hearing what his wife said, he immediately asked, "What's the matter? Tell me."

Zhang Chunyue thought for a while and said: "Now that Chengcai is married, he is not too young, and with his stable character, he should be able to establish a family. We have one more mouth to talk to, and I wonder if the family will be divided! There is no one above us. Dad and Mom, let’s be together again…”

Zhang Chunyue's mind was filled with the quarrel outside this morning. Although she understood why her sister-in-law did what she did, she still felt chilled.

Liu Jiancai recalled what his sister-in-law said just now and immediately understood why his wife said that.

Thinking of his mother-in-law's temperament, he said: "Okay, let's divide the family. Anyway, there is nothing in the family to divide."

There was a bit of bitterness in the smile, but this was what he had expected, and there was nothing he was unwilling to do.

Zhang Chunyue said solemnly: "The money you borrowed from Gao Yi and the money you borrowed from me will be paid back from the jobs I received. I can't put my own money in for nothing! Let alone let Gao Yi's money disappear." "

Liu Jiancai immediately assured: "Of course, I still have the final say on this matter."

Zhang Chunyue was satisfied now.

While Zhang Wangshi and Zhang Chunyue were eating in the room, the topic started to be discussed at another dinner table.

"What a talent! You are already twenty years old this year. If you were in other people's families, you would have been able to start a family a long time ago. It was just that it was more difficult for our family in the early years. Now that you are married, I have also added a mouth. I think, we It’s time for the two brothers to separate." Liu Jiancai said casually while drinking porridge.

When the young daughter-in-law heard about the separation, her eyes instantly lit up.

Liu Chengcai looked puzzled and asked, "Why does the eldest brother suddenly want to separate the family?"

Liu Jiancai explained: "Originally, your sister-in-law and I planned to separate our families after you got married, but isn't your sister-in-law about to give birth? I just thought that having younger siblings watching over me would give me some peace of mind these days. Now you, too, have given birth to your sister-in-law. , isn’t this just a good time to separate the family?”

After hearing this, the young daughter-in-law immediately asked: "Brother, how do you plan to divide this family?"

When Liu Chengcai heard her words, he looked over in disbelief.

Liu Jiancai knew that his sister-in-law was in favor of the separation of the family, and he felt a little uncomfortable. Now he knew even more clearly why his wife proposed to separate the family the day after giving birth.

He thought about what he had just discussed with his wife in the house, and then thought about his words again.

"Chengcai, you know our family's situation well. Our family has made some money this year, but we still spent a lot of money on your marriage."

When Liu Jiancai saw his younger brother nodding, he continued: "Among them, your sister-in-law's three taels of silver, we brothers cannot ignore our conscience and deny it. There is also money borrowed from Gao Yi, and we have to pay it back."

Liu Chengcai had no objection, "Of course, I recognize all of this, don't worry, brother."

Liu Jiancai was satisfied, "You and I will do carpentry work together. After these accounts are paid, I will allocate money to you or you can go out and work alone."

The little daughter-in-law asked: "How to divide it, 50-50?"

Liu Jiancai said matter-of-factly: "Of course!"

Liu Chengcai glared at his wife and looked at his eldest brother apologetically.

Liu Jiancai gave him a reassuring look, and then said: "The other is the four acres of land at home, two acres each for the two of us. And half of the food for each of us."

The younger daughter-in-law suddenly asked again: "How should I divide the millet and other things that my eldest brother just bought?"

Liu Jiancai coughed and said, "I went to my father-in-law's house yesterday. The money my father-in-law gave me was given to your sister-in-law, so..."

After saying that, he also took out the one hundred yuan deposit left by Ye Zifen yesterday and showed them.

The Liu family is really out of money. Their marriage has already emptied the family fortune.

"Alas! As soon as we got married, we were burdened with debts!" ​​the young daughter-in-law sighed.

Liu Chengcai glanced at his younger wife coldly, "Brother, do we still need to find someone to write the family separation documents?"

The younger daughter-in-law also looked at Liu Jiancai nervously.

Liu Jiancai said: "Write one! It will be good for everyone if it is written clearly."

When the little wife heard this, she felt relieved.

She also had money at the bottom of the box, but her mother had warned her not to take it out casually. She would not be as stupid as her sister-in-law!

By the time Zhang Wang came out with the bowls and chopsticks, the Liu family had already been separated.

Mrs. Zhang didn’t say anything. She didn’t care about this matter, which was the Liu family’s housework!

Then she took out one of the two pig's trotters and stewed it for Zhang Chunyue.

Zhang Chunyue's milk came in the afternoon, and the little girl finally no longer had to go hungry.

Looking at the little girl drinking milk in big gulps, Liu Jiancai finally felt relieved.

Mrs. Zhang Wang also breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, don't look at it. How can you lose your daughter right here? Go get the sand quickly."

Liu Jiancai reluctantly looked at it twice more, and then went out to get some sand.

They only have this kind of sand and soil near the river. He pushed the cart and set off with two sacks on the cart.

After he got the sand back, he went to his neighbor's house to borrow a sieve to sift out the sand and remove the larger particles.

Mrs. Zhang Wang used this time to take apart a pair of Zhang Chunyue's pants and make sandy pants for the little girl.

After Liu Jiancai had cleaned the sand, Zhang Wang took a shovel, shoveled the sand, put it on the stove and heated the sand.

After letting it dry for a while, I touched the sand with my hands. When my hands felt warm, I put the sand into the sandy pants, and then put the little girl in.

The dry, warm touch makes the little girl very satisfied.

Plus, she was finally full, so she had the most comfortable sleep since birth.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhang Wang also breathed a sigh of relief.

Blaming Zhang Chunyue: "These are all prepared before delivery. You have also served me during the confinement period, how could you be so careless!"

Little did she know that the Liu family had no money, and she didn't dare to take out the remaining money. In addition, she was busy with becoming a talent and getting married, so she forgot about it.

Zhang Chunyue had nothing to say and could only bite the bullet and be scolded.

Liu Chengcai's daughter-in-law packed up her family's things, and the two families began to live separately.

In order to show that the two families had separated, she even cooked meals separately from Zhang and Wang.

But every time she saw the millet and pig's trotters soup simmering in the small pot, she became extremely greedy.
