Old things in the Red Chamber

After Shi Taijun fell asleep, Yuanyang went out of the bedroom, told the little girls to look after the house, and went to find Mrs. Wang herself.

Mrs. Wang had already fallen asleep, but got up quickly after hearing that the mandarin ducks had arrived.She has always attached great importance to mandarin ducks, especially when something happens.

"Don't be too polite, you came so late, what happened to the old lady?"

"In the evening, the old man said that he wanted to separate the family. What he meant was that he wanted to establish a family of his own. The old man was present at this matter, and he also heard what the old man said. The old lady thought about it just now, and she agreed. Tell the wife and the master about this, and I will talk to the elder tomorrow."

"Good boy, we know your kindness, don't worry, your mother is living a good life in Jinling, and I will not treat you badly. Yu Chuan, take your sister Yuanyang back."

Yu Chuan agreed crisply, carried the lantern in person, and left with Yuan Duck.

Mrs. Wang thought about it left and right and felt that something was wrong, but today the master rested with Aunt Zhao, and there was no one to discuss it.

"Come here, invite the master back, and say that I have something important to discuss with the master."

Jia Zheng came very quickly. The husband and wife closed the door and discussed for half the night. Mrs. Wang personally took her confidants and maidservants to check in the warehouse. in their private rooms.He was so busy that he didn't sleep all night.

Jia Zheng wasn't idle either. He took out the land deed real estate in his home to have a look, thinking about which places to give to his elder brother and which places to keep for himself.Even if the family is to be separated, who should be invited to be a witness, and whether the person invited is biased toward him, these are all things he has to consider.Strive to minimize losses and pay the lowest price.

Jia Amnesty arrived outside Shi Taijun's yard after three poles on the next day. After learning the news that Shi Taijun had agreed to separate the family, he also planned to go out to find someone to be a witness.

Some of the people he was looking for were his friends in the antique circle, and some were also some clansmen living in the capital.

The two brothers were in a hurry, and each invited some people to testify.They didn't even make an appointment, but some clansmen couldn't stand it, and took the initiative to make peace for them, so they re-scheduled the date and invited relatives and friends from both sides to witness this event together. The two brothers never knew the difference After the news of the family, no one talked to anyone. This kind of thing, not to mention common, but also to the point of being rare.

On the day they separated, Jia Gu also came to join in the fun. When he saw Jia Zheng took out two pieces of paper and gave one of them to Jia Amnesty, he was very dissatisfied and deliberately yelled, "I heard that the two brothers in your mansion both It’s a descendant, so the family property should be divided equally! Even if there is no equal share, shouldn’t the eldest son be divided a little more according to the rules? Please also read the two masters of your mansion, so that those of us who are witnesses can clearly understand .”

Many people's first reaction after seeing Jia Gu was that he was looking for trouble.He had been silent just now, and people ignored him. What he said at this time was reasonable, and many people nodded.This is as it should be. We are here to bear witness, not to load logs.Although it is not possible to share exactly the same things between the two parties, the value of the things shared by the two brothers must be equal on the big folds.

Jia Zheng sighed suddenly at this time, with a look of great reluctance, "It's not that I'm stingy and don't want to give more to my brother's family property. What I said made everyone misunderstand, today is not only a division of the family, but also a division of the clan."

As soon as he said this, there was a buzzing below. The Shijia brothers sitting in the corner looked at each other, thinking that the two of them should persevere to the end, and they couldn't just come here in a daze because of others' intercession.

Shi Ding thought to himself: The members of the Jia family have never been reliable, and today's events are hard to tell in a day, so it's better to leave early.It also saves that when their brothers have disputes again, they will come to our brothers for comment or mediation.

So he stood up, clasped his fists around and made a confession, and said to Jia Zheng, "It's true that our family has something to do, so let's go ahead here. Please continue with your family's affairs, and don't pay attention to the attitude of our two brothers."

After they left, some people left, but most of them stayed.The members of the Jia family accounted for a lot of them.

Among them, there were people who disagreed with the fact that Jia She and Jia Zheng split the clan, "The split is a major event, and the patriarch must be present. Otherwise, the branch that moved out will not be recognized by our family. "

"That's right, that's the reason. Even if you want to be separated, you have to go to the government to write a document. Otherwise, this matter doesn't count."

"The patriarch of our old Jia's family is still in prison. Let me tell you that we should first find a way to get him out of the prison. Letting him squat inside is not a long-term solution. Besides, Telling this matter is also embarrassing to the ancestors. Get him back as soon as possible, and feel at ease sooner."

"Now that the big guys have talked about this," Jia Zheng looked at everyone, "I would like to say a few more words. Jia Zhen has been the patriarch for so many years, but he has not brought any benefits to our family. It makes the ancestors ashamed, let me say that their father and son are immoral, and can no longer be the patriarch of our family, why don't we elect a new patriarch."

This time the pot was completely blown up, and there was no longer a lot of discussion, but a quarrel.

The older people obviously disagreed, and they had a very legitimate reason to delay the meeting, "For such an important event, the whole family should be gathered together to discuss it, and finally we can talk about whether we can change the patriarch. The charter is over, let's talk about today's sect division."

This statement was agreed by many people, so the separation of the family was delayed by the election of the patriarch.

Although Jia Amnesty was dissatisfied with the development of the matter, he even thought that the second child did it on purpose.The matter of his clan division was postponed infinitely. After all, it is more important for a family to elect the patriarch and divide the family.

Judging from the feedback so far, many people don't have a lot of resistance to the fact that Jia Laoer was elected as the patriarch.

.In other words, if he wants to become the patriarch, he is almost on the verge of realizing his wish.

Jia Zheng himself pretended to have nothing to do with the matter, but in fact, his family members had already started canvassing for him.

The Jia family has multiplied for several generations in the capital, and the population is relatively large. There are also rich families and miserable families.

In order to let these families show their support for her, Mrs. Wang entertained these relatives in the mansion for several days.

Many people understood that this was the time to ask them for conditions. As long as they were not excessive, Mrs. Wang agreed on the spot, and most of the clansmen asked for gold and silver.So Mrs. Wang's stomach hurts from eating the food these days, no matter how much dissatisfaction she has, she still has to grit her teeth and persevere.

After ten days, everyone gathered together again.All the people who could come came, and all the people who were attached to Ningguo Mansion in the past also rushed over. They didn't dare to say anything against it. Rongguo Mansion is usually stronger, let alone this time.

In this atmosphere, Jia Lao Er completed the control of the family, and when he had just sat on the throne of the patriarch, he immediately agreed to split Jia Amnesty's branch.

The three brothers eventually became three families.

Under the pity eyes of others, Jia Amnesty returned home with the paperwork.

Regarding this matter, the people in the capital were divided into two groups. On the one hand, they felt that Jia Amnesty was too stupid. As long as they relied on the Rongguo Mansion's network, they would have countless good days.On the one hand, I feel that the Rongguo Mansion is too stupid. After separating the people, it is tantamount to separating the relatives. The three princes in the palace have nothing to do with their Rongguo Mansion.

For Jia She and his family, regardless of whether the people in the family are willing to separate, at this time they will face the matter of moving.The yard they lived in still belonged to the Rongguo Mansion, and less than a day had passed since the separation, and the Rongguo Mansion had come to urge them twice to vacate the place as soon as possible.

"I couldn't find a good place in such a hurry. I went to see the yard assigned to the master. Although it was in the city, it was in the south city. In the capital city, the east is rich and the west is rich, and the south is poor and low. The yard is dilapidated and dilapidated, and there is no way to live in it.”

"Since the family has been separated, the servants of the family must also be separated. We will take all those who are willing to go with us, and those who are not willing to go with us, let them go back now.

After Wang Xifeng finished speaking, the family suddenly lost half of the population.This matter made Wang Xifeng very angry, and he couldn't help complaining about it at home, "They are all shallow-sighted people, do you know that it is because there are few people that they are easy to serve?"

At this time, in the eyes of many people, Jia Amnesty's place is a broken ship, and it is the kind of broken ship that is about to experience wind and rain.A little wind can knock it over.

Jia Amnesty really let out a long sigh of relief after this matter was over, "Finally, I don't have to go to the guillotine with Jia Laoer. This matter is gratifying and should be understood."

Visible to the naked eye, his mood improved, and he didn't even restrain himself in front of many people. Even so, many people knew in their hearts that the two brothers separated.Definitely something that has been planned for a long time.

Jia Gu was also happy for him, and asked a casual question. There is not much difference between family separation and a good topic. 8 When he proposed to give his yard to Jia She, he was rejected. Jia She wanted to buy one. courtyard.

The seemingly unhappy separation has just passed away. However, for the two families after the separation, things are far from over.
