Chapter 24 (1/2)

Xue Qingshan blushed and swore, “Well, the third and the fourth brother. What’s wrong with you? Your think you are so independent and able to undertake the task alone, don’t you? You’re not afraid to piss your father off? And you, you son of a bitch, you don’t have all the hair. How dare you to make trouble in Xue family! Are you sure you have studied? What have you learned? You’re in everywhere in every single thing. If it wasn’t you, how could it be like this at home!”

He stretched out his hand and wanted to hit Xue Tingxiang. But at this time Zhao’er pulled him away and held Xue Qingshan’s big palm.

“Uncle, you can talk everything you want to say, but how can you start beating others.? Are you areal intellectual? Besides, what do you mean that Gou’er makes such a mess? Why does it make such a mess at home? Don’t you know it in your own mind?”

Xue Qingshan is tall. In addition, he has gained some weight in recent years, which makes him look tall and strong. The tiny body like Zhao’er standing in front of him is undoubtedly to kick against the pricks, but he is a strong man who couldn’t even move away after several attempts. He said, “Stop it! Do you think who you are? When did you become the owner of the Xue family to be in charge?”

Zhao’er sneered, “Yes, you are right, I am nothing in this family. But I am very clear that I never feel at ease to spend the money that others earn hard!”

“You…”

“All right, shut up! Shut up!” Mr. Xue shouted hysterically, and the bed table was was banged loudly by him.

There was silence again, and Mr. Xue on the bed was as stiff as a stone.

It took a long time for him to make a move. Slowly, he took out the tobacco from the tobacco bag and put it into the pipe to light it.

Zhao’er threw away his hand, and Xue Qingshan quickly retracted his hand. He inhaled the air fearfully and angrily and lifted his sleeve. There were several red fingerprints under his wrist.

How could the stupid girl have so much strength?

Mr. Xue smoked several cigarettes to calm down. He looked at the people in front of him, all of whom were his children and grandchildren, but now they are doing this for money.

Whose fault is it?

Mr. Xue was a little confused and froze. He admitted that the family was partial to the eldest son’s family, but they were posted in the family. Xue Qingshan was very smart since he was a little boy, and he was good at studying. Not to mention Juncai, and was praised since childhood.

If a humble family wants to be successful and stand out, it can only support one person to study with the strength of the whole family. That’s how his grandfather was successful. Later, he was admitted as a scholar and benefited the whole Xue family. He always thought he was right, but now he is not so sure.

For a while, Mr. Xue was in a state of confusion, and many pictures flashed through his mind.

There are the joy of the eldest brother when he was in school, the pride of the first son when he became Tong Sheng, the wisdom of the eldest grandson, and the exclamation of his successor; there are also the eyes of the second son who is fleeting envy and his face of worry and unwillingness before he dies, and many more…

And all these things, once again, have become their faces with different thoughts in the room.

Mr. Xue opened his mouth again. He said in a hoarse and dry voice, “Well, if you want to separate, I agree!”

“Dad!” Xue Qingshan couldn’t believe what he heard.

Mrs. Yang was also so panic that she didn’t know what to do. She looked at his man and Mr. Xue. Seeing Mr. Xue’s appearance didn’t seem to be joking. Suddenly, she had an action. She hurried to the inner room and shouted, “Mom, don’t you care anything?”

Mr. Xue suddenly felt impatient and said angrily, “Shut up! I’m still in charge of this family!”

At once, everyone was afraid to make a sound, and the curtain that had been lifted inside was put down again.

“Tell me, how do you want to separate?”

The third and fourth family looked at each other and looked at Xue Tingxiang again, but this time he didn’t speak.

Mrs.Sun was afraid that things would fail again, and she stepped forward and said, “Just as Gou’er said, divide the land. By the way, there are houses. Each family belongs to its own.”

Zhao’er suddenly said, “What about our house? Should we live here or move back the to the previous one?”

If mentioned, it is necessary to explain it: in fact, the room that Zhao’er ang Xue Tingxiang live now is not theirs.

The Xue family’s house are almost the same as the house in the countryside, which is generally in the form of a courtyard. In the principle room, there are three rooms for Mr. Xue, Mrs. Zhao and little daughter Xue Cuie. In the other room, there is a granary, which is used to store food and some more valuable things.

On the left and right are the East-West wing rooms, the kitchen, the cowshed, the warehouse, and the pigsty, the chicken house and the vegetable field, etc. are behind.

Before, the house of Xue family was enough, but since Xue Qingshan’s brothers married, they had their own children, so the house of Xue family became tense.

At that time, Xue’s family was kind of rich. When the eldest brother Xue Qingshan married, he built a house, and when the second brother Xue Qinghuai married, he also built a house. When the third brother got married, Xue’s money began to get nervous, and it was said to build it slowly.

This delay has been delayed for so many years.

When the second couple died, Xue Qinghuai had not married and lived in a room of his own.

When he got married and gave birth to Maodan, one room was not enough for living, so Mr. Xue had been agreed to replace the second room with the fourth room, and the two children moved into that smaller room.

In this way, they can live in the house, but since it is about separating family, they have to make it clear.

Hearing this, Mrs. Sun’s face immediately turned down.

Mrs. Yang smiled ironically, and she thought that’s what they deserved. But before she put away her smile, Mrs. Sun said angrily, “Zhao’er, if you want this room, I will return you.”

Since then, Zhao’er had a completely new appraisal of Mrs. Sun.

Although Mrs. Sun family usually fawns on the eldest sister-in-law and likes to bully the other two, it’s a little unexpected today for her.

Zhao’er shook her head and said, “The fourth aunt, I am not asking for the house. Since you’re talking about dividing houses and land, you have to make it clear. Your family has a large population, and we don’t want your house, but the land behind it should give us a portion.”

The land behind the house was bought by the Xue family long time ago. This kind of homestead in the village is not expensive. It is more than two acres, and it costs more than two silvers. The Xue family has said for a long time that it is necessary to build a house, but every year there is no money left, so the land is empty and it becomes the vegetable field.
