Traveling to an ancient peasant family: I got rich by doing business
Chapter 1: Traveling through time and catching up with the separation
Huangmei Town, Qingshui Village.
At noon, a quarrel was heard from a small courtyard at the west end of the village.
"If you don't separate the family, I'm going to beat the child later."
"Qiuyue, don't be impulsive. Let's...split up!"
The voices kept drilling into his ears. Li Yu raised his hand to press his brows and slowly opened his eyes.
However, what he saw was not his bedroom, but a few people dressed strangely.
Where is this?
Li Yu was about to ask when a memory that did not belong to her suddenly flooded into her mind.
*
It turns out that I have traveled through time.
This is the Dayu Dynasty, a dynasty that does not exist in history books. It is now the third day of September in the eighth year of Dayu's Tianyuan period. This is Qingshui Village, Huangmei Town, Jiangyang County, Nanzhou Prefecture.
The original name was also Li Yu, and he is fifteen years old this year.
Three days ago, the original body married Han Xiuwen, the second son of the Han family in Qingshui Village. However, on the wedding night, Han Xiuwen suddenly fell ill and passed away.
The original body was heartbroken and forced herself to finish Han Xiuwen's funeral. Before she could even drink a sip of water, her sister-in-law Yang Qiuyue started yelling that she and Han Xiuwen's younger brother Han Zheng were both unlucky and wanted to separate them.
The original body was weak to begin with, and could not withstand the shock, so it fainted.
Li Yu: "..." In modern times, she is a food blogger and handicraft blogger on a certain audio platform, with millions of fans. But now they are all gone, my heart hurts!
*
Across the street, Yang Qiuyue, the wife of Han Xiuwu, the head of the Han family, saw Li Yu wake up and yelled even louder, "Awake? If you wake up, pack your things and move out of our house. Oh, and take that sickly Han Zheng with you."
Li Yu raised his eyes and looked at Yang Qiuyue.
Yang Qiuyue is twenty-four years old this year and has a mean face.
Seeing Li Yu looking at her, she snorted and said arrogantly: "What are you looking at? Hurry up and get up!"
"Qiuyue, my...sister-in-law has just woken up, please let her take it easy." Han Xiuwu, the eldest son of the Han family, said weakly as he stood beside Yang Qiuyue.
"She's been here all the time. What if she hurts our child? Do you still want a son?" Yang Qiuyue glared at Han Xiuwu fiercely.
Han Xiuwu stammered and stopped talking.
Yang Qiuyue was very satisfied with Han Xiuwu's performance. She smiled proudly and said to Li Yu, "Why don't you leave now?"
Li Yu coughed and wanted to speak, but someone blocked her way.
He was a boy of about eleven or twelve years old, wearing a brown gown and looking a little pale. He was Han Xiuwu's younger brother, Han Zheng.
Han's parents died early, and the four brothers and sisters depended on each other for survival. The eldest brother, Han Xiuwu, the second brother, Han Xiuwen, the third brother, Han Zheng, and the fourth brother, Han Xiaomei.
Among the four, Han Xiuwen and Han Xiuwu are both capable, and Han Xiaomei can do some housework on a daily basis. Only Han Zheng has been sick several times a year since he fell into the water five years ago.
Han Zheng stared coldly at Han Xiuwu and Yang Qiuyue, "Brother, sister-in-law, since we want to divide the family, we have to ask the elders to come and divide the family property properly.
My second sister-in-law has married my second brother, so even if he dies, she should have a share of the family property. And I am also a part of this family."
"What?" Yang Qiuyue screamed, "One of you just got married, and the other has been sick for years. You haven't earned a penny. Why should I give you anything? It's good enough for you to take your own things away. You still want something? Dream on!"
Her voice was so sharp and piercing that Li Yu couldn't help but pick his ears.
After a while, she almost understood the current situation.
To be honest, she was willing to leave. She didn't feel a sense of belonging here. Instead of being a widow in this village and being secretly plotted against, she might as well go out and try her luck.
In addition, before Han Xiuwen died, he gave the original owner two taels of silver, which were both kept in the room. She took the silver and went to other places to rent a short-term house and start a small business, so survival would not be a problem.
However, there was a regulation in the Dayu Dynasty that women were not allowed to leave their hometown alone after becoming widowed, otherwise they would be sentenced if caught!
She had to stay.
In this way, she would have to fight for what was hers. If one day she went back in time and the original owner came back, the original owner could survive slowly with these belongings.
When the Han family's house was built, Han Xiuwen contributed a lot and paid half of the money, so she couldn't just give it all to a loser like Han Xiuwu. Besides, even Han Zheng was helping her, so she couldn't fall behind.
Thinking of this, Li Yu slowly stood up, took a step forward to the right, and stood side by side with Han Zheng.
"Brother." Li Yu chuckled. "My marriage to Xiu Wen was a formal one. We have a formal marriage certificate. I am now Xiu Wen's. If you and your sister-in-law want to separate me, you have to follow the formal family division process and give me the share that belongs to my husband.
And Xiao Zheng, my sister-in-law said he never earned money, isn't that right? Xiu Wen told me that of the 13 acres of paddy fields and 8 acres of dry fields in the family, 10 acres of paddy fields and 5 acres of dry fields were earned by Xiao Zheng. These were gifts from Mr. Zhao in the town after he saved Mr. Zhao's son. How did they become yours? Mr. Zhao gave him 20 taels of silver back then, have you forgotten?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? The land was bought by our family Xiuwu, what does it have to do with Han Zheng? As for the silver, I have never seen it." Yang Qiuyue was afraid that the land and silver would be lost, so she retorted angrily.
Han Xiuwu wanted to say something, but was pinched by Yang Qiuyue and shut up again, with only his eyes showing guilt.
Seeing this, Li Yu knew that Han Xiuwu was determined to stick with Yang Qiuyue to the end, so he turned his head and looked towards the Han family's gate. The people in the village loved to watch the fun, and they were all gathered at the Han family's gate.
Li Yu blinked and said to everyone, "I think everyone still remembers when Mr. Zhao came to the village to congratulate us."
Before Li Yu spoke, most people in the village thought that Yang Qiuyue was right. Li Yu was a new married woman, and Han Zheng was a sickly man, so they shouldn't divide the family property. But after Li Yu said this, everyone realized that Yang Qiuyue was lying.
"That's right. Mr. Zhao made a big fuss back then. Even the mayor came. Our head of the family went with him to look at the land." Aunt Wang, who lived next door to the Han family, spoke first.
"I remember that Mr. Zhao was generous and gave each of us who were watching the fun a piece of candy!" said another aunt Zhang. Candy was a rare commodity, and their family had a piece of candy for several days.
......
The villagers were talking to each other, it was very lively.
Li Yu had listened to most of it, so he interrupted everyone and looked at Han Xiuwu and Yang Qiuyue again, "Brother and sister-in-law, what do you think? If you still insist on your own opinion, then I will go find Mr. Zhao. He should still have the documents for the land transfer."
"Don't look for Mr. Zhao, don't look for Mr. Zhao." Han Xiuwu finally stopped looking cowardly. He waved his hands anxiously, "The land was earned by Xiao Zheng."
"So what if he earned it? He has taken so many medicines in the past few years that it should have been enough to pay for the land." Yang Qiuyue argued.
"Ha!" Han Zheng suddenly laughed out loud, "Since you married into the Han family six years ago, I have never spent a penny of your elder brother's money. On the contrary, you and elder brother took away ten taels of the twenty taels of thank-you gift that Mr. Zhao gave me. My second brother gave me money for medicine in the past few years. In addition, my second brother and I also gave you two hundred coins for food every month."
If the villagers were just watching the fun before, now they really sympathized with Han Zheng.
"Two hundred coins a month, Yang Qiuyue, you have such a dark heart."
"You took ten taels of silver from someone and used his land, and you still treat him like this."
"Xiu Wu is really a piece of shit, letting his wife bully his brother like this."
The scolding continued, Han Xiuwu's face turned red with shame, but Yang Qiuyue was unaware of it. To her, reputation was not important, money was the only thing that mattered.
Gritting her teeth, Yang Qiuyue wanted to argue again, but she heard several majestic voices from the crowd: "Stop making trouble, we are here to divide your family!"
