Chapter 11 Village Chief Han Hongzhi
Han Qingyun couldn't believe his ears. This was the future number one scholar? How could such a shameless scholar exist?
"Has Xi Gu not studied in academy for a few years and has forgotten even basic common sense? Or is it that Big Brother's family is different from other families, and when the family is divided, the dowry for the woman is also divided?"
Han Xigu's face turned pale instantly, and Han Qingshan and Zhao He's expressions became even uglier.
The Han family originally had only 60 acres of land. When Lu Yanyan married, Lu Youtian bought another 20 acres in the village as a dowry. The shop and the family's mule cart mentioned by Han Xigu were also Lu Yanyan's dowry.
Han Qingshan's face turned pale. The division method proposed by his second brother had already given his family a great advantage. However, Xigu still wanted to share Lu Yanyan's dowry. If this were to get out, not only would his family be criticized, but Han Xigu would also have difficulty passing the imperial examinations in the future.
"Don't be angry, second brother. When your sister-in-law got married, Xigu was still young. It's my fault that Ah He and I didn't explain it clearly to these children."
Han Qingyun sneered in anger. The brothers from the first house simply felt that Han Mingzhu's system was too powerful and they would no longer have to depend on anyone else to survive, so they were fearless.
When Han Xigu said those shameless words just now, except for Han Qingshan and Zhao He who looked ashamed, everyone else looked as if it was a matter of course.
Han Qingyun didn't want to argue with these confused people. He had already shown his utmost sincerity. If the eldest wife wanted to take advantage of him, even if it meant breaking up with him, he would never foster the selfishness of these people.
It is certainly a great opportunity for Han Mingzhu to have a treasure hunting system, but he, Han Nuo, was able to start from scratch in modern society, so there may be a bigger future for him here.
He was willing to redistribute the family property with the first wife because the first wife had indeed been bullied a lot over the years, and Han Qingshan and Zhao He had indeed been very good to him.
However, this does not mean that he has to get involved with these people.
Because of his original feelings, it would be best if he could follow Han Qingshan and the others to ease the relationship. If not, since he already knows what will happen in the future, how could he not protect his family?
"Big brother, please discuss the division method I proposed with your family. If they agree, I will go to the village chief tomorrow."
After saying that, Han Qingyun handed the silver lock to Han Mingzhu. Han Mingzhu could accept it if she liked it, or take it back if she didn't like it.
Han Mingzhu's face was pale. She didn't understand why the atmosphere suddenly became so weird and everyone looked unhappy.
The silver locket handed over by my second uncle looked extremely delicate. On the front were two fish swimming around a lotus, and on the back were three words that my brother Huaijin had taught me. That was her name - Han Mingzhu.
Han Mingzhu reluctantly looked away and looked at her mother. She didn't know whether she should take the silver lock.
Han Qingyun's heart softened when he saw the love in Han Mingzhu's eyes. Han Mingzhu was just a child about the same age as Xiaoxi, but she was much more cautious than Xiaoxi.
Xiaoxi never looks at adults' expressions and will just say directly whether she likes something or not.
"I bought this for you. It even has your name engraved on it. If you like it, take it. You don't need anyone else to make the decision for you."
"Does Xiaoxi have one too? Does Sister Huaiyu have one?"
"Well, all three of you have."
Hearing this, Han Mingzhu's eyes brightened.
Zhao He, Han Qingshan and others wanted to stop them, but Han Mingzhu had already accepted the silver lock and said sweetly to Han Qingyun: "Thank you, second uncle."
Han Qingyun touched Han Mingzhu's soft hair and turned away.
Han Qingshan shouted from behind him: "Just do as my second brother says..."
When Han Qingyun returned home, the whole family was waiting for him. Only Han Huaixi was so sleepy that he kept yawning. He snuggled in Chen's arms and refused to go back to his room.
As soon as he saw Han Qingyun coming back, Han Huaixi rubbed his eyes, threw himself into Han Qingyun's arms, put his head on Han Qingyun's shoulder and began to sleep.
Han Qingyun hugged Han Huaixi, put her head in a more comfortable position, and patted her back gently. He couldn't help laughing, and the depression that had just been aroused at Han Qingshan's house dissipated.
Han Qingyun found it a little funny to see Han Huaijin trying hard to appear calm but his eyes betrayed him.
Looking at his mother and wife who were anxious to know the situation, he no longer kept them in suspense and told them in detail about his negotiations with Han Qingshan's family.
When Han Huaijin and Han Huaiyu heard Han Qingyun say that he had divided 40 acres of land, money, an old cow and food to his uncle's family, they were surprised at first. But when they saw that their grandmother and mother did not object, the two children became happy again.
But after hearing what Han Xigu said, Han Huaijin couldn't laugh anymore. He never expected that his arrogant third cousin would say such a thing.
Lu Yanyan and Chen were not surprised. People who have been oppressed for too long tend to go to extremes when they turn things around.
It seems that it will be difficult for my family and the eldest wife to get along harmoniously.
Looking at the distraught Han Huaijin and the tearful Han Huaiyu, Lu Yanyan said, "You two should go back to sleep. We will go to my grandparents' house early tomorrow morning."
Han Huaijin and Han Huaiyu became excited again when they heard that they were going to their grandparents' house.
"Let's bring Huai'an back this time. I miss him a little bit."
After Han Huaiyu said this, his face turned red with embarrassment.
In the past, she didn't dare to express her thoughts so bluntly. Even to her family, she couldn't say intimate words like "I think" or "I like" directly.
But the atmosphere at home has been completely different these two days. Han Huaiyu feels that even if she behaves more casually, her parents and grandmother will not blame her. She likes everyone in the family, and she can express it directly in the future.
Lu Yanyan found it very funny. As expected, he was just a child, his emotions came and went quickly.
"Yes, we will pick up Huai'an tomorrow. You should go back to your room and sleep quickly. Be careful not to get up tomorrow."
Early the next morning, Han Qingyun found the village chief Han Hongzhi and told him his plan.
Han Hongzhi's face was filled with excitement when he heard this. Qingyun was indeed a well-educated scholar, and his vision was far beyond that of women like Chen.
Han Hongzhi is Han Hongyuan's brother within the fifth generation of kinship. Han Qingshan and Han Qingyun are both children he has watched grow up. He does not want the two brothers to quarrel and never have any contact with each other until they die.
Han Qingyun said he had something to do today, and that the village chief would have to worry about re-drafting the family division documents. He hadn't been present during the last division, after all. He had already appeased his mother and would definitely not interfere.
There was just one thing: when the family was divided again, he hoped that several village elders and representatives would come again to bear witness.
Han Hongzhi nodded quickly: "That's a must, don't worry."
Han Qingyun added cryptically, "In addition to the list of Yanyan's dowry that she has and the backup copy at the county government office, her father-in-law also had someone copy a copy and keep it in the clan."
Han Hongzhi didn't quite understand why Han Qingyun said this. Even her husband's family couldn't forcibly take away a woman's dowry, and it was even more impossible to divide the woman's dowry when the family was divided.
Han Hongzhi knew that Han Qingyun was not a person who spoke without purpose. Since he said so, he would definitely make Lu Yanyan's dowry list public.
"Don't worry, Qingyun, uncle knows everything. But you don't have to be so anxious. It will be the same if you divide it again tomorrow when you are at home."
Han Qingyun didn't want to rush things, but King Lin's army was getting closer and closer, so he could only speed up his pace and arrange for the people around him to make preparations as soon as possible.
Besides, he didn't want to meet anyone from the Han family's eldest branch right now, so he just asked the village chief to come forward.
"Let's do it today. Uncle Village Chief, I heard a few days ago that Anling Prefecture has been unstable recently. Our Wuping County is right next to Anling Prefecture. Do you think we should have the villagers collect the grain as soon as possible?"
Han Hongzhi didn't understand Han Qingyun's meaning at all and shook his head repeatedly: "How can that be possible? If we harvest a few days early, we will produce a lot less grain per acre."
Han Qingyun knew that without evidence, he could not convince the villagers. He was just testing the attitude of the village chief. Everything could only wait for news from Yan Shian to come back.
