Time Travel: Remarrying a Little Wolf Dog

Chapter 83 The dust has settled

I also remembered that the second son came back this morning and seemed to have talked to Grandpa Su in the house for a while.

The door of the room was closed at that time. She came out while cooking and saw it, wondering why the door was closed.

Could it be that the second brother said something at that time?

With this guess, Grandma Su's firepower suddenly shifted. "Could it be that the second son came back today and asked for a division of the family? Has he really grown wings and wants to get rid of the eldest son?"

Grandpa Su's face darkened when he heard this, "Who told you this?"

When Grandma Su saw Grandpa Su's cold face, her arrogance immediately waned, "... No one told me, I just thought of it myself."

But Grandpa Su didn't believe her. Grandma Su always had no idea in her mind.

You should believe whoever speaks more.

It would be strange if she could think of these things out of the blue!

Someone must have whispered something in her ear before she blurted out what she said today.

Thinking about the candidate for this person, there is no other choice but the boss.

Only the eldest couple in the family could do such a thing, and Grandma Su doesn't like the eldest brother's wife.

If the eldest son's wife said something bad about the second son, Grandma Su might scold her in return.

Only the eldest son is favored by Grandma Su.

Grandma Su would also be more likely to believe what he said.

Thinking of this, Grandpa Su was even more furious, "Don't remember everything the eldest brother says in the future! You only have one son."

Grandma Su's neck shrank when she was yelled at. "...I didn't hear much. I...I love my second son too. I even specially left a bowl of chicken for him when I killed the chicken today."

Grandpa Su: "If you really love the second child, then don't listen to the eldest child's instigation. Can't you open your eyes and see for yourself?"

Grandma Su's eyes welled up with tears. "Why shouldn't I watch it? It's just that the eldest brother said a few sour words. How did it come to the point of splitting up the family?"

Grandpa Su saw that she was still so confused, and he was very disappointed. "Are those two sour words? They just mean that you can't stand others doing well! We have lived together for these years, and the second child has helped the eldest child's family a lot."

"Let's not talk about anything else. The eldest family has four children, and the second family has two. Everyone can see who is taking advantage and who is at a disadvantage!"

Grandma Su was choked, "Then... that doesn't mean the second child didn't have that many children?"

Grandpa Su: "Whether they gave birth or not is one thing, but you are just asking if I am at a disadvantage in raising a child, right?"

Grandma Su couldn't say anything to show that Father Su hadn't suffered any loss, so she could only nod.

Grandpa Su: "That's it. Since you've taken advantage of someone, you should remember their kindness. But what have the eldest and his wife done over the years? They act as if they're owed something to them."

Grandma Su murmured and said nothing.

Grandpa Su: "We farmers have been working in the fields all our lives. We don't have any special abilities, but we are capable if we can keep our family from starving. But even if we are poor, we must not be poor in ambition, and we must not lose our conscience!"

Grandma Su naturally agreed with this, as she had worked diligently with Grandpa Su all her life.

They are indeed amazing, but people outside also give them a thumbs up when they are mentioned.

Even in my own home, facing my two sons, I was in the middle of a situation and felt a little blinded.

Thinking of this, Grandma Su was not so angry anymore.

They are all her sons, and the second son is usually more filial. How could she not love him?

Now that they have been divided, just let them go on their own.

If I continue to suppress the second child, I won’t be able to do so for the rest of my life.

Just let them go and let them do it on their own!

But she was still angry with the old man.

She threw the quilt at him, then turned around and fell asleep, ignoring him.

Grandpa Su shook his head helplessly, "You have such a bad temper. You have been stubborn with me all your life."

But I still folded the quilt and put it in the closet.

Then he came back, took off his coat, and went to bed to rest.

The next day, Grandpa Su woke up early.

He took everyone to have breakfast in the main room, and then ignored the people behind him who had different thoughts.

He went straight to the homes of some prestigious elders in the village and told them about the situation at home.

Although those people also felt that Grandpa Su's division of the family property was somewhat biased, they thought it was someone else's family affair and didn't say much.

Near noon, Grandpa Su brought his people back home.

These people proved that the family was officially divided, and asked a literate elder among the clan to write a document.

Several people put their fingerprints on it.

Then Grandpa Su asked Grandma Su to kill another chicken to entertain them.

Grandma Su was very reluctant, as the family had already eaten one yesterday and they were going to eat another today.

What kind of family kills chickens for two consecutive days?

Grandpa Su glared at her. Although Grandma Su was very angry, she did not dare to offend him in front of outsiders.

He could only angrily ask his daughter-in-law and granddaughter-in-law to kill the chicken, and he did not care about anything else.

The meal lasted until mid-afternoon. Grandpa Su saw everyone off and returned to the yard.

Everyone was standing in the yard in a mess. When they saw Grandpa Su come in, they all looked at him in unison.

Grandpa Su waved his hand and said, "Now that the documents have been signed, the family division is official. It's getting late today, so I'll take the eldest and second sons to the county tomorrow to divide the households and transfer the land deeds."

Because the Zhou Dynasty collected taxes based on population, not household registration.

Therefore, whether or not the household is divided has no impact on the taxes the family has to pay.

Therefore, when people in this dynasty divided their family property, they would go to the government office and formally divide the households.

Uncle Su had a complicated expression, but in the end he said nothing.

Father Su's mentality was much simpler and purer. He felt as if the world was at his best and he felt relieved.

Everyone went back to their rooms.

Early the next morning, all members of the Su family got up early tacitly.

They quietly finished their last reunion dinner before the separation of the households, and then watched Grandpa Su take Uncle Su and Father Su out.

He didn't go back until he could no longer see anyone.

The road to the county town is quite long, but Grandpa Su, Uncle Su and Father Su are used to walking there.

Grandpa Su is older, but in good health.

We took a rest along the way and then went straight to the county government office.

He didn't dare to ask the He family for help, for fear that Su Yan would know the details of the division in advance and things would be troublesome.

That girl has had a terrible temper in the past two years. Once she realizes she's been taken advantage of, she completely disregards anyone's face.

Not to mention that Grandma Su usually doesn't dare to offend her, Grandpa Su himself also wants to avoid her.

Therefore, Grandpa Su would rather spend his own money to go to the county government to make arrangements.

Fortunately, this kind of household division is an old procedure in the county government.

There is no need to spend too much money, otherwise Grandpa Su will probably have to bleed again.

It took Grandpa Su and his friends two full hours to get the things.

He looked at the few thin pieces of paper in his hand, feeling lost.

From this moment on, the Su family was truly completely separated.

Uncle Su looked at Grandpa Su with longing eyes, "Dad, this is the revised title deed, right? Let me see it, too."

As he said this, he couldn't wait to snatch the paper from Grandpa Su's hand. Even though he couldn't read, he still read it over and over again with curiosity.

Grandpa Su had no choice but to hand the other one to Father Su, "This is yours, take a look!"

Then he gave them a sincere admonition, "After we split up the family, you will be the head of the family. When you do anything, you must think about your wife, children and elders at home. Don't do things blindly. We are a country family and we can't stand it."

Father Su nodded solemnly, but Uncle Su was still immersed in the joy of the actual name change on the title deed and didn't hear what Grandpa Su said at all.

It was Grandpa Su who pulled him up before he realized what was happening. He belatedly said, "Hey!"

Father Su received the household division documents and looked up at Grandpa Su and Uncle Su.

Regardless of the dispute between Grandpa Su and Uncle Su, he said to Grandpa Su, "I'm going to the He family. I came to the county to see a doctor a few days ago, and it was Grandma He who paid for me."

"When I left this morning, Yanyan's mother told me to pay it back when I got to the county today."

Grandpa Su looked embarrassed when he heard this. He had completely forgotten about this.

This money should have come from the public funds, but it was not set aside separately when the family was divided.

Only when Su's father brought it up did Grandpa Su feel that this was totally inappropriate.

Fortunately, Father Su had anticipated this and didn't care at all. He just said hello to Grandpa Su and Uncle Su and left.

This was the first time he took the initiative to leave his father and brother, his back full of ease and relief.

Grandpa Su was silent as he watched from behind. He realized belatedly that he seemed to have lost something very important and would never be able to find it back.
