Chapter 49: Old Man Li uses the "torture strategy"
Besides, his daughter is very supportive, so he certainly can't let her down.
The terms of the division had not yet been negotiated when Mingyu came with the village chief.
It turned out that Li Mengyue had already expected that dividing the family would not be so easy, so she asked Mingyu to secretly ask the village chief to come over.
She knew that the village chief was fair and just. If anyone had any problems, the village chief would try his best to help. Besides, she had saved the village chief's grandson Zebao. With this favor, the village chief would stand on her side as long as it was not excessive.
Someone shouted, "The village chief is here."
Everyone consciously made way for the village chief.
All the villagers in Xinghua Village are very respectful to the village chief.
Not to mention that Village Chief Li Wen cares a lot about the villagers and has great power.
You have to know that in a remote mountain village like theirs, the village chief has the power to drive people out of the village and even decide the life or death of a villager.
Therefore, when Old Man Li saw the village chief coming, he knew that something serious had happened and glared at Mingyu fiercely.
The village chief came to the yard, took a look at the situation, and based on what Mingyu had told him on the way, he had a general understanding of the whole incident.
He ignored Old Man Li and walked up to Li Mengyue, saying with relief: "Girl Yue, it's great that you can come back safely. Zebao has been crying for his sister Yue these past two days."
Seeing that the concern in the village chief's eyes was not fake, after sincerely thanking him, he smiled and said, "After my family's affairs are finished, I will take my brother to play with Zebao tomorrow."
The village chief knew that the Li family’s split had a lot to do with Yue girl.
As the head of the village, he has to think carefully before making any decision, and think clearly whether it will affect the interests of the villagers.
There has always been a tradition in the village that as long as the parents are alive, the family will not be divided.
If the Li family sets a precedent and others follow suit, it will ruin the morale of the village.
But he also knew how much the Li brothers had paid for Li Jian's studies.
The old couple Li not only didn't treat Li Hai and Li An well, but in order to let Li Jian continue his studies, they even thought of selling their grandchildren.
The key is that Old Lady Li was successful. She also had a bad feeling during the two days when Li Mengyue was missing.
After all, the fact that she was able to save Zebao from drowning easily and Doctor Yang's request for methods to save people shows that Yue is not only capable, but also kind-hearted, and she can tell the methods to save people from drowning without reservation.
Having such people in the village will only bring benefits and no harm to the villagers.
But I don’t know what Old Lady Li was thinking. Not only did she not treat the girl well, she also had evil intentions and sold her.
Even if she is not my biological grandmother, they are still a family now. How can I do this?
Fortunately, Yue girl is very capable and came back safely.
Originally, he would never agree to the division of the Li family no matter what, but after seeing what happened to Yue girl, the balance of favoritism slowly tilted towards the second branch of the Li family.
"Li Gui, it's normal for children and grandchildren to divide the family when they grow up."
When Old Man Li saw the village chief coming, he was just afraid that his wife would sell Li Mengyue and the village chief would find out, which would affect his family's reputation. He didn't expect that the village chief would support his second son to split the family.
"Village chief, as long as parents are alive, the family should not be divided. This is passed down by the older generation. I cannot go against the ancestral precepts."
The village chief has always been fed up with the hypocritical face of old man Li. If it weren't for the fact that Li An's family was bullied so badly and Yue girl was a capable person, he would not have been willing to take care of this bad thing.
"Well, you know exactly why Li An split up the family. If you agree readily, I would think you are not so biased."
Old man Li understood what the village chief meant. His body, which had been standing straight, suddenly bent down and he looked very sad.
Some villagers felt sympathy when they saw Old Man Li like this and persuaded Li An not to divide the family, saying that there is no child who would complain about his parents.
When Old Man Li saw someone persuading the second son, a smug smile appeared on his face.
However, when he saw the look in Li Mengyue's eyes, his smile froze. He didn't know whether to retract it or continue smiling.
Li Mengyue ignored Old Man Li's pride, because she knew that the family division was inevitable today, and Old Man Li would probably not even be able to cry later.
Li An was not very polite to the person who advised him. He said expressionlessly: "Wait until you can tolerate your parents treating you like this, then come and persuade me."
"Oh, look at what you said. There is no such unreasonable elder in my family." The person who persuaded Li Ang said angrily, and walked away feeling embarrassed.
"Okay, let's distribute it quickly, as we all have to work in the fields in the afternoon." After saying this, the village chief sat on the chair that Mingyu brought over.
Li Mengyue stepped forward and told him about the things that were given as a result of the division of the family.
After listening to Li Mengyue's words, the village chief looked at Old Man Li and said sarcastically: "Li Gui, do you think this division is really reasonable?"
Of course Old Man Li knew that this was unfair to the second son, but his original intention was to dissuade the second son from the idea of splitting up the family business.
The result was counterproductive. If the stalemate continued, it seemed that the second brother would become estranged from me.
Old man Li pretended to be hurt badly, and said with a painful face: "Second brother, since you think that your parents are a burden and have delayed you, and you want to separate, then your father will grant you your wish today."
"The land at home can only give you three mu of dry land at the foot of the mountain, plus fifty kilograms of grain, a total of one hundred kilograms. Save some so that you can eat the new grain."
"Don't give me five taels of silver per year as a tribute. Just give me two taels. And don't give me that many clothes. Just make two sets of clothes for me and your mother every year."
Seeing that his father agreed to split up the family business, Li An felt a little sorry for him, but his heart was broken into pieces, like shards of glass that could never be put together again, so he no longer expected love from his father.
I remember that when my mother was still alive, he was also loved by my father and would ride on his neck and laugh happily.
When his father came back from work, he would buy delicious snacks, candied haws and sugar figures for him and his brother.
When did it change? His father no longer coaxed him to play, but instead urged him and his brother to support his younger brother's studies, and there was endless work to do every day.
In fact, my father didn’t know that he also wanted to study. Every time he saw his younger brother coming back from the private school with books in his hands, he was very envious.
Unfortunately, he had to work, otherwise his mother would beat him and not let him eat.
Now hearing about what his father gave as part of the family property, he nodded expressionlessly.
Li An agreed that the village chief was not here for show, so he immediately changed the tribute to two hundred coins and a set of clothes.
Old Mrs. Li’s arm was broken, but she continued to jump despite the treatment of Doctor Yang.
When she saw that the village chief had reduced the amount of filial piety money by a large amount, she cried out in anxiety.
As the most important person in the village, the village chief would naturally not bother with an ignorant lady. He would only look for old man Li.
"Li Gui, you are really capable to let a woman ride on your head."
Old man Li was worried about the division of the family property. When he heard the village chief's sarcastic words, he saw that Old Lady Li was not only unable to help, but also made things worse.
"Snapped!"
