Quick Wear: If I Had Regret Medicine

Chapter 91 The Drowned Cousin 8

As their daughter, they felt extremely ashamed for doing such a thing.

"What should we do next?" Liu didn't know what to do now. She was glad that Lin Xuanhe was fine.

Once something happens to her, she can't stand anything. After all, she has lived for more than ten years, but what she is most worried about now is her daughter.

Grandma Lin just asked Lin Ruru to kneel outside, but she hasn't figured out how to deal with her yet.

So she was very worried now, and she also felt sorry for the two taels of silver, which they had saved for a long time.

"I don't know. If our children encountered such a thing, what would we do?"

Uncle Lin's words made Liu silent, and she remained silent from then on.

In the room of the old couple of the Lin family, Grandpa Lin said, "Let's split up."

In fact, now that the children are grown up, they should have separated long ago. But they have always felt that the children are extravagant and have been holding them back, not letting them separate.

They are actually also responsible for what happened today.

They believed what Chen Chang said today. When their two granddaughters were young, they knew nothing.

Life is hard now, and they have always wanted to keep a few children in their hands.

But now it seems that their previous decision was wrong.

They have taught several children since they were young, basically without any favoritism.

As for her grandchildren, Grandma Lin prefers her granddaughter a little more.

Because she herself gave birth to three sons and has several grandchildren, which is more than enough for a family like theirs.

When the marriage between the Lin and Mo families was decided, Lin Xuanhe was chosen.

"Let's divide it." After the family is divided, the children can decide for themselves how to live their own lives.

"It's just that the second oldest family has to give half of the money from the division of the family to the first oldest family. This is considered as compensation for them."

They have saved a lot of money over the years, with each family getting around 20 taels of silver. They had planned to buy some land last year, but the prices of many good plots of land were very high last year.

If it weren't for this incident, they would have planned to renovate their house and find wives for their grandchildren.

Now they are old enough to get married, so it’s better to divide the property now.

Lin Ruru is getting bored with staying at home, so it would be better for her to move out and live on her own.

On this day, the Lin family stayed at home and did not go out.

However, all kinds of gossip in the village had been spread, and the Lin family must have been the focus of conversation in the village during this period.

At noon, Grandma Lin came out of the room to cook.

Early this morning, no one had breakfast, but no one dared to speak because the atmosphere in the house was too weird.

After Liu saw her mother-in-law come out, she also followed her out. She looked at the woman still lying in the yard, quietly tried to go over and help her up.

When Liu found that her mother-in-law just glanced at her and said nothing, she bravely helped her mother-in-law to her room.

Lin Ruru has woken up now. The stick that Uncle Lin used to beat her couldn't kill her, it just caused her pain.

Grandma Lin cooks very quickly and calls people to eat in a short while.

When everyone came out, they saw a pile of food on the table and everyone couldn't believe it.

Because there was actually a dish on the table, it was fried meat with dried vegetables, or bacon.

You have to know that the pound of meat that Shen brought back yesterday has been taken away by her to be made into bacon. When they smelled the fragrance just now, they thought they were having an illusion.

But they didn't dare to speak, and now when they saw the food on the table, they were even more afraid to speak.

"What are you standing there for? Do you want me to move stools for you?" Everyone sat down, as if they were having their last meal before execution, but when he saw Grandpa Lin coming over, he sat down with a normal expression.

Shen was helping when cooking just now, so she is doing better than others now.

When Liu came out, she also saw the rice on the table. If it were normal, she would definitely be very happy, but now she felt that the delicious food was no longer so delicious.

Everyone who was eating today was very quiet, no one spoke.

After Grandpa Lin finished his meal, he said something that shocked the entire Lin family.

"Divide the house in the evening."

After Grandpa Lin finished speaking, he went out, probably to find the clan leader.

In fact, in Linjia Village, people with the surname Lin are not the most numerous, but the people in charge of the village have always been members of the Lin family.

Every member of the Lin family who was still in the house was shocked.

Because a few years ago, they wanted to split up the family, but the old couple rejected it at that time.

Among them, the family of Lin Lao was the least willing to split up. Although they were young, their two children were the youngest and they were the only two people in the family who could work. Given the current situation of the Lin family, it was okay to split up.

Shen and Liu were very happy as they had wanted to separate the family for a long time.

But for so many years, the mother-in-law has always held the household power in her hands, and it is very difficult for them to buy anything.

They finally got to the point of separation, which was something they had been looking forward to for many years.

However, Liu was still a little worried, as he was afraid that he would get nothing from the division of the family this time.

In fact, nothing happened to Lin Xuanhe this time, but she couldn't say that the child was okay, nor could she expect others to let him go. She was very worried if something happened.

But even though she was worried, she still did her work skillfully.

Just now you didn't serve Lin Ruru's meal, so he could only use some leftovers and drink a little broth, and bring it into the house to feed Lin Ruru who was lying on the bed.

She had just wiped Lin Ru's body. Although the wounds looked scary, they were all superficial.

He would be fine after a few days of care, so he didn't take it too seriously.

"Since you are awake, get up and eat. I am going out to work."

Liu didn't know what to say to his daughter now. He was not a careful person and he had obviously noticed that something was different about his daughter some time ago.

Although Lin Ruru used to be timid and quiet, she was at least a nice person.

During this period of time, he clearly felt that Lin Ru disliked her and the Lin family many times.

She thought Lin Ruru had grown up, but she didn't expect her to become like this.

After she put the bowl down, she went out. Lin Ruru in the room opened her eyes.

She couldn't move at all now, and the wounds on her body would hurt terribly if she moved.

I still don't understand. It was me who fell into the water, but I got beaten when I came back.

What he could not accept the most now was what Chen Chang said when he left, that he would come to propose marriage tomorrow.

How could she marry such a man? He was ugly, lazy and so old, what should he do?

She looked at the bowl of rice on the table. This was the first time she saw rice since she traveled through time.

But now she had no appetite at all and her whole body was starting to feel hot.

She probably has a fever, but Liu doesn't care about her. Why isn't her mother Shen?

I was thinking about various questions in my mind and slowly fell asleep.

The first solution for the Lin family's old couple is to split up the family, but this is also acceptable.

She will get rich on her own without their help.

But when everyone gathered together in the evening, he found that things were not as he thought.

"You also know what happened this morning. The second son's daughter did something so stupid. This is a big reason why we have to divide the family."

Uncle Lin felt extremely guilty when he heard this. In this era, it is important that parents do not separate the family.

Because of this incident, our family has been divided, and she feels very sad. As a filial son, he is suffering at this moment.

Grandma Lin went on to say, "This time when we divide the family property, we have saved a total of 65 taels of silver over the years. This is our savings for half a lifetime."

When they heard the number sixty-five taels of silver, everyone present was stunned.

There are so many taels of silver. Nowadays, rice only costs a few cents per pound.

This amount of money could buy so many kilograms of rice. Everyone became excited all of a sudden.

The three daughters-in-law of the Lin family were also very happy, especially Liu.

She felt distressed all day, and gave the two taels of silver she had saved with great difficulty to her eldest sister-in-law's family.

If these sixty-five taels of silver were divided equally, we could get at least a dozen taels.

More than ten taels of silver. He had never seen so much money in his life. He was extremely happy when he thought of it.

But then Mrs. Lin said something that made his face tense all of a sudden, "Something like this happened today. The old man and I are in charge. You, the second son, have to pay 10 taels of silver to the first son."

Sometimes, when I heard this, I immediately got anxious. "Two feet and two taels of silver is too much, right? We already gave two taels of silver to my sister-in-law this morning..."

Sometimes I wanted to say something but was interrupted by Uncle Lin next to me, “We agree with what Mom said and have no objection.

" When Uncle Lin said this, he glanced at Liu Shi beside him and stopped talking for a moment. She had always listened to her husband, so naturally she would not disobey him at this time.

"Then it's agreed that each family will receive 20 taels of silver, and the remaining 5 taels will be kept by the two of us for our retirement. The eldest will receive 20 taels, the third will receive 20 taels, and the eldest will receive 30 taels."

After saying this, Old Lady Li tremblingly took out a handkerchief, which was probably wrapped in many layers.

Inside the handkerchief was a small wooden box, which was filled with small coins.

She had already weighed the silver and handed the prepared silver to her three daughters-in-law.

"You will each live in your own house now. The land has been divided among you. As for the dry land and paddy fields, they will be divided equally among the three of you."

She was considered to be one of the fair people in the village. She divided everything into three parts and treated each of her sons equally.

The village chief, several older people from the same village, and the patriarch of the Lin family nodded again.

They were only here to testify about the division of the Lin family, and they originally thought that it would be like the division of other families and would end in a long-winded dispute.

I didn't expect that the house would be divided up in less than half an hour.

As for the elderly couple’s retirement care, they are still able to move now, and when they can no longer move, they will go to their parents’ home to live out their retirement years.

However, the second and third sons’ families also have to provide food every year. If they cannot provide food, they have to exchange it for money of the same value.

And the house they are building now can only be inherited by the eldest son after a hundred years.

She remained silent again. What happened today was still a big blow to her.

There was still a mess on his daughter's side. Because of her, the family's share of the money was reduced by half. How much more resentful was she towards him at this time?

Xuanhe was really surprised. She didn't expect that Grandma Lin would ask Uncle Lin's family to take out half of the money from the division of the family as compensation to her family.

Ten taels of silver. At this time, could ten taels of silver really support their family for several years?

She was quite satisfied with her family's opinions and attitude. As for Lin Ruru, she would let her go for now and deal with her after she got married.

Several documents were written and signed by the village chief and others.

By the time I had packed up everything at home, it was already very late.

There are many things that I haven't had time to sort out yet, so I can only sort them out tomorrow.

Xuanhe was sitting in her room thinking about something when she didn't expect Shen to open the door and come in.

"Please keep these ten taels of silver. This is your compensation. As for the two taels of silver from before, use them to buy some delicious food tomorrow. I will then give you a small reward to calm your nerves."

He was not surprised that Shen gave him the money because he was a very devoted person to his children.

"Mom, I don't need this money right now. Our house is too small. Let's use this money to rebuild our house."

Xuanhe has wanted her own room for a long time. The house she lives in now is separated from the other house by another room. Her two younger brothers live in the outer room, and she lives in the inner room.

"The money we got a while ago is enough for building the house. You can take this money as compensation. You don't have to worry about the house. We will start building the house when your father comes back."

Shen took her hand and put the money in his hand, "Keep it well, you can buy some fabrics you like and make some nice clothes."

Shen thanked her luck countless times, thankful that her child was fine. If possible, she would rather not have the 10 taels of silver, and hoped that what happened in the morning would not have happened.

I really can't imagine that if it was Xuanhe who had an accident, given Xianhe's temperament, he might just seek death.

At this moment, Shen suddenly understood that she only hoped that her child would be healthy and safe.

After Shen finished speaking, she went out. She still had a lot of things to do, especially after the family split up, she also had to work in the fields.

He is the only one in the family who can work in the fields. Although his son is old enough to help a little, he is still a child after all.

As for my daughter, I let her do housework at home and she doesn't need to go to the fields.

Her husband won't be back for another three months, so she has to go to Dahe tomorrow to tell him about things at home.

Fortunately, he was the one who repaired the ditch at the beginning of this year, and the money earned will belong to their family.

By then, you won’t have to pay out the money, so it’s still very cost-effective.

If this hadn't happened, she would have gone there to give him something during this period.

There is also the matter of dividing the family, which I need to talk about.

The husband must have had a hard time, as he never wanted to separate from the family.
