I traveled through time and space to hunt and support my family in ancient times

The next morning, the elders of the clan and the village head rushed to the Jiang family.

"Old Jiang, why did you suddenly split up the family?" the village head asked puzzledly. He had been the village head for 40 years, and there were few families whose parents still split up the family.

Old man Jiang said vaguely, "The first wife's family has long since separated and eaten separately. Today we invited the village head and the elders to come here to witness the signing of the contract."

"Where's Youshan? He said yesterday that he was going to the county town to see a doctor for his child's mother. He was delayed and didn't come back?"

Old man Jiang blushed with shame. His son had just become paralyzed and he couldn't bring himself to divide the family property.

Liu, who was standing by, coughed and said, "Da Lang is lying in the room and hasn't come out yet. Let's go in and talk."

The group entered the main hall and sat down. An old man in the clan spoke up, "What's going on? How are we going to divide the family if Dalang doesn't come?"

Liu knew that she couldn't keep the truth secret, but the longer she delayed, the harder it would be to deal with it. A family of ungrateful people would come to ask for money every day. She made up her mind, "Uncle, Dalang is paralyzed. He fell yesterday and can't get up!"

The old man's body trembled violently, and he stood up with shaking legs, "Da Lang is paralyzed, how can you split up now?"

Liu snorted, "Uncle, we've already had our meals separated, and the only thing left to separate is the deed."

The old man sighed and looked at the silent Old Man Jiang. If there is a stepmother, there must be a stepfather. His nephew is a coward and listens to his wife in everything. He can't do anything about it.

Others also felt that Old Man Jiang was cruel. He wanted to divide the family just because his son was paralyzed? However, they were invited here as witnesses, so they couldn't show their displeasure to the host family.

The village head spread out a piece of paper and a pen and asked, "How do you plan to divide it, old Jiang?"

Liu had already discussed this with old man Jiang, and seeing that he remained silent, she spoke for him: "Just follow the village rules. The eldest wife only needs to pay 100 coins as a tribute every month."

"Where's the land?"

"If the land is not divided, Dalang can't farm it."

The village head rolled his eyes at Liu and asked Old Man Jiang, "Why don't you give the eldest daughter a share of the family's land?"

Old Man Jiang coughed and said, "There are two acres of good land near the wild river, which is convenient..."

Liu twisted Old Man Jiang's arm and glared at him: "What?"

Then he turned his head and said to the head of the village: "The land is not divided."

Old man Jiang grinned and exhaled heavily.

The village head also sighed and continued to ask, "Where is the house at home?"

Old Man Jiang pounded his legs a few times and shook his head, "It's hard for me too."

"How do we divide the house?"

It was still Liu who spoke: "The first family, move out."

"What?"

The old man in the clan who was sitting down touched the ground with his walking stick and could not help but persuade: "Nephew, how can you divide it like this? You are going to drive the eldest wife out!"

Mrs. Liu quietly defended herself: "There are too many people in the family to accommodate us. Several of my grandchildren are getting married soon..."

The head of the village could only sigh in his heart. He had never seen such cruel parents. He resisted the urge to throw his pen and asked the last question: "Where are the things and money? With this division, how much money will be allocated to the eldest wife to settle down?"

Old man Jiang was so ashamed that he couldn't speak and just shook his head.

Liu: "Where is the money in the upper house? The big house has money, but the private house is in their hands. They took away everything in the big house."

The big house was full of junk, so they took it away to save her the trouble of cleaning up.

"Nephew, this is a sin. They are your sons and grandsons!"

Several old people didn't expect anything good to come out of Liu's mouth. Liu was not a good person and she was a stepmother. They understood that she didn't want to share the benefits with the eldest wife, but old man Jiang shouldn't treat his own son like this.

Old Man Jiang rubbed his face and said nothing. The family property had already been divided, and it would be embarrassing to say anything now. "Let's do it this way."

The group was so angry that their faces turned black. They planned to stay away from the Jiang family in the future. Old man Jiang was so cruel.

The contract had already been signed, and the village head stopped writing: "Go and ask Youshan for his opinion."

Everyone nodded and wanted to visit Jiang Youshan to see if he was really paralyzed, so they followed old man Jiang to the backyard.

"Youshan, you were fine yesterday, how come you broke your waist?" The head of the village came into the house and first visited Jiang Youshan.

Jiang Xue was not afraid of the stage, and she repeated everything that happened yesterday, causing everyone to exclaim, "What a sin."

"Nephew, is this really how you divide it? Youshan is your biological son." The old man with crutches wanted to persuade Old Man Jiang for the last time.

Old man Jiang said nothing. It was true that his eldest son was his biological son, but his family was about to produce a scholar, and his lifelong dream could not be hindered by the eldest wife.

Jiang Youshan already knew yesterday that his father wanted to divide the family business, but he took the division list and read it again and again, and he just suspected that he had read it wrong!

How could his father be so heartless? Did he really kick his family out of the house? He didn't believe that he had no weight in his father's eyes?

"Dad, why are you dividing it like this?" Jiang Youshan was completely desperate.

Old man Jiang looked embarrassed. He covered his face and didn't look at him. He whimpered, "It's hard for a father to be kind..."

At this point, Jiang Youshan had given up hope. "Just follow what my father said. There is just one thing. I am a useless person now. I cannot afford the 100 coins per month as a filial tribute."

He is already paralyzed. How can he support his family? Will he bring trouble to his wife and children?

Liu didn't want to agree: "It wasn't easy for your parents to raise you, do you want to be unfilial to them?"

Jiang Youshan shouted, "My mother is buried in the back hill. From now on, I will only respect her."

Jiang Yue: My cheap dad finally showed some strength for once.

Old man Jiang was stunned, and suddenly thought of his former wife, Xu. What did Xu look like? He couldn't remember, but he remembered that Xu was gentle and weak, and had never quarreled with him.

Thinking of his previous wife, Old Man Jiang finally softened his heart, but not by much. He only agreed to Jiang Youshan's condition, that is, he would not have to pay the 100 wen monthly filial piety money.

Liu opened her mouth, but she didn't interrupt, as she rarely listened to Old Man Jiang. Jiang Youshan should have been driven away long ago. Not only did he occupy the position of the eldest son in the family for nothing, but he was also an ungrateful person. It would be better to separate him quickly. In the future, she would only have three sons, with land, wealth, and glory!

The father and son had no objection to the division of the property, and the village head quickly wrote three contracts. The parties involved and witnesses signed and put their fingerprints on them. Jiang Youshan and Old Man Jiang each kept one copy, and the village head kept one copy, which was considered to have been approved by the official authorities.

The sacrifice was scheduled to be held five days later, after which Jiang Youshan's family moved out.

One morning, Jiang Youshan became paralyzed, and the news that old man Jiang had divided the family spread throughout the village. The villagers who were usually on good terms with Jiang Youshan came to visit him one after another, bringing him a few eggs or a handful of food. After the visit, they couldn't help but feel sympathy for Jiang Youshan.

Old man Jiang hid in the house with a gloomy face and refused to come out. He was completely embarrassed this time.

When no one was around, Jiang Ming couldn't help but ask, "Dad, where are we moving to?"

Jiang Youshan smiled bitterly and said, "Let's go to your grandmother's grave and build a thatched hut."

"Are you looking for a good nephew?" Someone called out from outside.

Jiang Ming went out to greet them. In the yard were Old Man Luo and Luo Douzi. These grandfather and grandson were carrying a large piece of meat to visit his father?

Is it too expensive?

Jiang Ming rolled his eyes at Luo Douzi and remained calm without saying anything.

Jiang Youshan was flattered when he let the grandparents in. "Why did you disturb Uncle Luo? Your legs are not in good condition. Come and sit down."

Cai brought two bowls of tea that had been brewed early in the morning, "Uncle Luo, please try some of the dandelions that Xue'er dug."

Jiang Youshan suddenly saw the large piece of meat that Luo Douzi had placed on the table, and waved his hands, "Uncle Luo, how can we do this?"

Old Man Luo advised, "Why not? How can my family eat such a big deer?"

"Youshan, you have such capable sons and daughters. Relax and take good care of them."

Jiang Yue's bow and arrows were borrowed from the Luo family, which Jiang Youshan knew. The wild deer was the rent given by Jiang Yue, which Jiang Youshan did not know.

Jiang Yue looked at her helpless cheap father and sighed in her heart, he is such an honest man! Can't he stand others being nice to him?

"Dad, don't refuse. I'll send the wild deer I hunt to Grandpa Luo later!"

"Haha, okay!" Old man Luo laughed heartily.
