Chapter 920
Yes, the fact that two people bought exam questions was found out by other scholars. This must not be a good thing. After all, they studied hard for decades in a poor family, and ended up being screwed by a rich man. No one can calm down!
Although the county magistrate also had a hand in this matter, he did not dare to end the matter easily, because once the scholar made a big fuss, it would not be a matter of money, but a matter of losing his head!
Therefore, the two people became scapegoats and were arrested. Now, the two people can no longer take the exam. Accordingly, a large sum of money has to be spent to redeem them.
"Mom, it's come to this point, you can't be soft-hearted anymore!" Linlang said pointedly: "When we were able to be together as a family, we just hoped that my eldest uncle and eldest brother could come back as scholars, but now there is no hope.
It’s all work for nothing, nothing for putting up airs for others!
Now that the old lady wants to sell the land, she is selling your things. Ordinarily you should divide them up, lest the old lady sell everything and you lose nothing!"
Mrs. Wang was crying when she suddenly heard her daughter-in-law say this and clapped her hands and wiped the tears from her eyes, "Look at my stupid head, why did I forget this? You're right, I can't cry here anymore, I want to
Go back, I'll go see the old lady and ask her not to sell our things!"
I thought this matter would be solved quietly, but unexpectedly, the old lady and the old man came to Linlang's store the next day wearing crutches.
"Oh my God, please open your eyes. This grandson's daughter-in-law has moved out and doesn't even care about the elderly at home. Please open your eyes!"
Linlang heard the noise and walked out directly, watching the old lady and old man kneeling on the ground, shouting loudly.
"Old lady, old lady, you said that we are not filial. The key is where we are not filial. Liulang and I have already separated, and we didn't ask for anything at the beginning. We also gave you 10 taels of silver. We agreed, can you not ask for it?
I, we didn’t ask you, so we suddenly came to your door for no reason, what on earth do you want to do?”
The old lady sat on the ground and raised her chin, "You are so cruel, can't you just ignore us after the separation of the family? It's hard at home now. The shop you opened is popular and the food is spicy. You don't know how to take care of the family. You
A heartless person!"
Linlang finally knew what the old couple were here for. She clapped her hands and said to the store clerk: "Okay, this store can't open anymore. You go back first. I will let you know when I want to come over!"
The waiters looked at each other and did not dare to interfere with the shopkeepers' household affairs. They packed up their things, closed the door, and left.
After Linlang waited for the waiter to leave, he said to the crying old lady: "Old lady, isn't the hundred acres of fertile land at home enough for you to eat? You want so much money just for your uncle and eldest brother.
What, when we, a young couple, earned money, most of it was handed over to the family, but what did we get all year round? Nothing. I give my husband a meal, and you have to make irresponsible remarks. Why!
We didn’t ask for anything we gave away, but we gave you so much money, and even gave you the house I built myself. Are you trying to force me to death if you still don’t know how to be content?”
"You... you have a shop. I heard you bought dozens of acres of land. You must have plenty of money. Why don't you give us some? Don't you know what it means to be filial to your elders?" the old lady said with wandering eyes.
"The money I have is mine and I will never give it to outsiders. Old lady, you can make trouble if you want. Even if it goes to the government, I have my own reasons!
I borrowed money to buy the land and shop from my parents' family, which really drove me to a panic. As soon as I paid back the money, I returned home penniless and ate and drank your food every day!"
When the old lady heard this, a trace of fear flashed across her face, and she gritted her teeth, "I can't see your uncle die, so just give me some money..."
Linlang gritted his teeth and said: "People like them are simply the scum of society. It would be a good idea to die!"
"You... are not filial, you are not filial..." the old lady shouted loudly with a long voice.
Linlang ignored it, closed the door, hugged the child and left.
The old lady screamed for a long time, and after realizing that no one was looking after her, she looked around and found that no one was there. She stood up angrily and stamped her feet, "This damn woman!"
The key people were all gone, and the old lady was too embarrassed to continue making trouble. She grabbed the old man's hand and left angrily.
After Linlang stayed at her parents' house for four or five days, she came back slowly. As for the old lady, after seeing that she couldn't get any favors from her side, she had no choice but to give up, sell some of the fields, collect some money, and put the two
A son was redeemed.
Because of this incident, the family completely fell out and started quarreling in a big way. The old man had no choice but to separate the family.
"It's OK to separate the family, but let's talk about it first. I think everyone knows what our family paid for the boss, and we got nothing and even caused a lot of trouble. We should not take this responsibility!
The money that the boss has earned from studying over the years, the 300 taels of silver from the last time, and the money from selling the land this time, add up... you have a lot of money in mind, so the boss can't participate in the division of the family this time!"
"You..." The old lady stood up, sat down again, and sighed, "We are all a family, why do we have to be so awesome!"
"What we have done is perfect? Then what he has done is not perfect? They have lost all the money in our family, and now we want to give it to them, hoping to get some happiness!"
Although the old lady wanted to leave more for the eldest son, but so many people disagreed, she had no choice but to give in and give the eldest son five acres of fertile land, and the remaining three sons would share it equally.
Because the old lady insisted on allocating 5 acres of fertile land to the eldest son, the sons were aggrieved and unwilling to support the old lady.
Logically speaking, the old lady and the old man should live with their eldest son, but they knew that their eldest son was useless. If they really lived with the eldest son, they would probably not be able to survive in their old age. The couple discussed and decided to live separately with their sons.
Just give me something every year.
The old lady's four sons divided their families, but the son gave birth to a son again. When the son's son saw the divided family, his thoughts started to move and he also wanted to separate the family.
Just because of this separation of families, several families started to quarrel again. Some people successfully separated their families, while others did not. The days passed slowly like this.
When Linlang opened her eyes again, she was startled by everything in front of her. After she finally got used to it, she looked at the things on the wall and the photos on the desk, and couldn't help but frown.
