Chapter 34 Helping Hu Tieniu Separate His Family (Part 2)

Siyu finally understood after listening for so long. She was asking Aunt Hu to do the housework. She was really being two-timing. She wanted her husband's job, but she didn't want her children to go to school, and she still wanted her wife to work hard. This was like a toad crawling on your feet. It doesn't bite, but it's annoying. How could she be so partial? She wanted the horse to run, but she didn't give it any grass to eat.

Siyu, clap your hands. Have you forgotten? This job is mine. I can give it to whomever I want. It's not your turn, old lady, to make the final decision! What? You're so used to being the boss that you've come to treat me, Bai Siyu, as your home. Do you know what you're doing? It's like a pile of dog shit on the side of the road, stinking, rotten, and disgusting. You don't even have the most basic humanity. Don't embarrass yourself by showing off, and you're taking pride in your stupidity? Your IQ is inversely proportional to your height. How pathetic! I hate trouble. Anyone can do this job, and there are many people waiting for it.

I only let Uncle Hu do this job because he has a good relationship with my father and has helped us in the past. If it weren't for my father's face, do you think a family as big as ours, the Bai family, wouldn't have someone selling braised food? The same goes for embroidery; there are many aunts who are good at it. But if I look at you, Old Lady Hu, I feel like you're insulting my intelligence at the first glance. Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. You're sucking the blood of one son to feed your other two, and you still think you're noble and great? Who do you think you are? Do you think you're the boss of your family? What goes around comes around. Do you really think I wouldn't make Caozi cakes without a rotten egg like you? You come here and show off your power, ordering people around? Are you so used to taking advantage of your seniority? Do you really think we have to listen to you just because you throw a tantrum? You take yourself too seriously. You're just playing the role of an elder in front of Uncle Hu. You see he's so honest, you want to bully him all you want, but you're dreaming in front of me. If you think Uncle Hu is too good at this job, I can replace him. When Widow Hu heard this, she thought that if she lost this job, no matter how honest or bad her son was, he might turn against her. But he still earns money to pay to the government. If he was replaced by another family, such a good job would be gone, and where would he get the few hundred coins a day? Widow Hu sat on the ground and didn't dare to say a word. After thinking it through, she quickly got up from the ground and said, "I won't do it again, I won't do it again, I won't do it again." But Hu Tieniu was already heartbroken. All these years of hard work had gone unrecognized. He also had his own mother's partiality, and his children and wife were helpless. He spent every day being scolded and beaten. He had never had a full meal or worn a new piece of clothing. For so many years, he always worked in front and ate in the back, and his clothes were always what his brothers had left over. The money he earned was used to support his brothers' children's education, but his own children couldn't even go to school.

Hu Tieniu ignored his mother's tantrum. He knelt down before the village head and said, "Village head, please help me divide the family property." Widow Hu saw that her son, who had always been obedient and honest, was starting to disobey her and refute her. She immediately said, "I don't agree. If you dare to divide the family property, I will die in front of you." Hu Laoer and Hu Laosan also tried to persuade her. "Brother, you are the most filial and obedient to our mother. If you divide the family property, what will we do? You are the eldest son and you have to support our mother."

Siyu, this is really a case of Xiaodao Labutu opening his eyes. These two brothers are big and strong, but instead of working to earn money to support their family, they actually try to blackmail others. There is really no such thing as the most shameless, only more shameless. How can they say it so naturally?

Hu Lao Er and Hu Lao San looked at Si Yu with a look that seemed to be mocking, coquettish, and disdainful. Hu Lao Er and Hu Lao San felt ashamed and embarrassed, and lowered their heads silently. Hu Lao Er and Hu Lao San thought about how their eldest brother had been working hard all these years, and what were they doing! In their twenties, they were not doing their jobs and were idle every day. They were really ashamed of their ancestors. It seemed that they had grown up in an instant, and their consciences were awakened. They suddenly advised mother, "Mom, let's separate the family!" We two brothers have relied on our eldest brother to take care of and help us all these years. It's time for us to work hard to earn money to support the family. It's not easy for our eldest brother. We two are not motivated and have caused a lot of trouble to our mother and eldest brother. I hope that our eldest brother will give us a chance and not be estranged from us.

But this time, it was as if the heavens hadn't heard their voices. No matter how the brothers persuaded her, she insisted on not dividing the family. Hu Tieniu was also determined to divide the family. Li Zheng also saw how hard Hu Tieniu had been working over the years, so he asked Hu Tieniu, "Are you sure you want to divide the family?" Hu Tieniu said, "I'm sure."

Although the Yulong Dynasty ruled the world with filial piety, it did not explicitly stipulate that the family should not be divided unless the parents agreed, nor did it stipulate that the family could only be divided if the parents agreed.

As long as the parents are too harsh on their children, beating them and injuring them, the son can ask for a share of the family property. Even if he wants to give his mother more pension, it is acceptable for him to give her a little more money with Hu Tieniu's current income.

So after discussion, it was decided that if Hu Tieniu earned 100 coins a day, he would have to give 5 coins to his mother, and 30 kilograms of food per month. Widow Hu saw that throwing a tantrum was useless, so Hu Tieniu finally decided to split the family. Widow Hu thought that she couldn't lose her son's job, so she stopped throwing a tantrum and silently accepted the arrangement of the head of the village. Widow Hu thought that with her eldest son earning 200 to 300 coins a day, he could also earn more than 10 coins, and several hundred coins a month. Now he only earned more than 10 coins a day as a laborer in the city. As an old lady, she could spend more than she needed, and she could also support her second and third sons. In the end, Mrs. Hu had no choice but to compromise. She didn't dare to offend Hu Tieniu too much, for fear that she would get nothing in the end. The family division was decided, and Hu Tieniu was completely free from then on.

Feng Mojun had just finished fighting the men in black who were chasing him in the grove. Before he could relax, another man in black came after him. "Feng Mojun, we've been caught!" Ah Si carefully cleared his tracks as he walked forward. After a night of walking, they finally arrived at a small village. A few of them quietly approached the gate of a courtyard. Feng Mojun and Ah San went inside to buy some clothes. Ah San clasped his fists and said, "Master!" Ah San arrived at the gate and called out, "Is anyone home?" Inside was a young woman in her twenties.

Still sitting by the bed, shedding silent tears, "My husband's been out hunting pigs for five days now, and he said he'd be back in three." It's already been two days. Then a voice came from outside, and the young wife, in a panicked, trembling voice, replied, "Who, who, who is it, Ah San?" "Hello, sister-in-law, we're passing by and wanted to buy you some food and some clothes. We've been wandering these mountains for over ten days, hoping to hunt a red fox and a tiger for our old lady's birthday. But the smell is too much, and we're looking for some clothes." The young wife opened the door and asked, surprised, "Are you hunting in the mountains? Where is it, Ah San? This mountain behind us?" She wanted to ask them if they'd seen her husband, but fearing they were bad guys, she kept silent and went to find some clothes. She brought the clothes to Ah San and said, "These are all my headmistress's clothes. Do you think they're okay?" Ah San asked, timidly, "Yes, but do you have any more?" "Give me two more sets of clothes. One isn't enough for the three of us. "Okay, little wife, I'll take them for you." Ah San took out five taels of silver and handed it to the eldest sister-in-law. He picked up the clothes and food and left. The eldest sister-in-law said, "You gave too much, you gave too much. It won't cost much. They're all worn." Ah San left without looking back. Several people arrived in the mountains and disguised themselves, looking grimy and dirty. They were no longer the handsome and elegant men they once were. Instead, they dressed themselves up in unkempt, slovenly clothes, and dressed in patched clothes, resembling the dusty, dusty appearance of hunters. This time, no one could recognize them. Several people walked along the mountain road toward their salt production site. Ah San, according to reliable information, the salt production site is in a cave, with many laborers and guards.

A few people cautiously approached to observe the tight security. The patrols on the edge had arrived in a matter of minutes, four waves of ten men each. They wondered how they could get in. If they couldn't get in, how could they investigate? How could they find evidence? Ah Si, who was standing nearby, suddenly said, "Didn't they say they've been arresting laborers lately? What if they found us in this state?" Feng Mojun immediately understood what he meant. They could pretend to be the laborers they were trying to capture. So the three of them walked away, deliberately making a noise. The patrolmen, hearing the noise, hurried over and saw the three men chasing some rabbits. The patrol leader gestured to the others, telling them to arrest Chao and the other two. Feng Mojun gave Ah San and Ah Si a look, and they ignored their approach and continued chasing their rabbits. When they caught one, they burst into laughter, "Finally, we caught you." The patrol leader, along with several others, surrounded the three men and exclaimed, "Haha, yes, we finally caught you."

The three people asked in panic, "Who are you and why are you here?" "What are you doing?" The patrol leader said, "Of course it's something good. Come on, take them back."
