Fast-forward to the era of cannon fodder

Chapter 1612: In-laws' Conspiracy 24

The Lu family was ultimately unable to split up.

Father Lu said, "You want to split up, I agree, but this house is the family housing allocated to me by the factory, and it cannot be given to you."

"I raised you, paid for your education, found you wives, and provided for your families. As a father, I have done my best. Don't even think about asking for more."

"Since you started working, your mom and I have never asked you to hand over a penny. You brothers have saved some money, so you can use it to buy your own houses. The eldest and the second oldest will move out within a month. From now on, you two families will each manage your own households. Your mom and I are old, and we can't control you too much."

"The third child hasn't started a family yet, so you won't be separated for now. When you start a family, I'll let you raise the child until he's three years old, and then you can move out."

The two sisters-in-law's faces changed.

Mrs. Lu said, "Dad, shouldn't you give us some money? Dahui and I have saved some money, but we can't even afford a single room with that little money. Where are we going to live if we move out?"

Mrs. Lu cried and said, "Dad, the smallest yard costs five or six hundred yuan, and we don't have that much money. Who would want to leave the house empty-handed when dividing the family property? You can't just kick us out."

Mother Lu yelled, "No one would leave their son and his family empty-handed when dividing the family, but no one's son would not hand over a penny of his earnings to his family, and let his family support his wife and children for so many years. More than ten mouths in the family depend on your father's monthly salary of 50 yuan, so there is no surplus. I have been frugal for four or five years, and I have only saved 200 yuan, which is not enough for the third son to marry a wife. When the eldest and second sons got married, I spent 380 yuan each to marry them. I am not partial to any of my three sons, and I give the same amount of dowry to their wives."

"If you want to split the money, forget it. Either you move out or stay here. But the children are getting older and the expenses are increasing. Your dad's salary is not enough to save a penny. If you want to stay, each of you will pay eight yuan a month for living expenses. If I don't save enough money for the third child to get married, I will make him a bachelor."

Father Lu looked worried and looked at his two oldest sons in a reproachful tone, "Oldest son, second son, you don't want the third son to be a bachelor, do you?"

The eldest and the second were speechless.

They indeed haven't paid a penny home since they started working.

Everything he eats, drinks and wears is from his family, and he keeps his salary in his own piggy bank.

In the past, my sister's salary supplemented the family expenses, and my father's salary could be saved half. Since my sister got married, without her subsidy, my father's salary is just enough.

In order to save enough money for the third child's dowry, my mother tried every means to save money. The family boiled vegetables every day and they were almost sick of eating them.

The eldest and second child both want to go back to their previous lives, eating well, dressing well, and not having to spend their own money. But now, Dad’s salary alone is not enough to support the family’s expenses, and Mom asks them to pay for their living expenses.

They don't want to pay eight dollars per person per month.

I also want to divide the family and money.

But my parents’ attitude was very firm. I couldn’t get any share of the money. If I wanted to leave this home, I could only buy a house with my own money.

But after buying the house and moving out, I can no longer take advantage of my parents.

You can stay, but you still have to pay for your living expenses.

The eldest, second oldest and two sisters-in-law were all silent.
