The evil sister is in charge, and the mother is getting married

Chapter 4 Separation 1
The old man of the Sheng family passed away two years ago. Mrs. Sheng gave birth to three sons and two daughters. Sheng Wanqiu's father was the second child. Her uncle was Sheng Dashan, and her aunt Liu Juan gave birth to three daughters and one son.

The three daughters Sheng Zhaodi is 14 years old, Sheng Laidi is 12 years old, Sheng Pandi is 10 years old, and the son Sheng Yaozu is 7 years old!
The second son is his father Sheng Daniu, who has two sons and one daughter. Some time ago, he went out to do odd jobs. As a result, a fire broke out in the host’s house and he was burned to death. At the same time, two people from the village who went to do odd jobs with him also died.

The third child, Sheng Dalin, and his third aunt, Zhang Guihua, have a son and a daughter. Their daughter, Sheng Wenwen, is 12 years old, and their son, Sheng Jinbao, is 8 years old. Sheng Dalin works as a handyman in a grocery store in the town, and Zhang Guihua takes care of the children and does housework at home.

The eldest aunt, Sheng Chunhua, married into the next village and gave birth to two sons. Because her personality was very similar to that of Mrs. Sheng, both of them were hot-tempered and had a very high status in her husband's family.

My younger aunt Sheng Xiahua has a gentle personality. She got married last year to a scholar family in the town. I heard they were good people. She seldom came back after the marriage. The original owner didn't know how she was doing.

"Actually, splitting up the family is good for everyone. I don't think anyone would want to spend money to support three of us orphaned children for nothing!"

"I want to leave my father's compensation money for my younger brothers to study. I will not take it out. Let me make this clear first."

As soon as Sheng Wanqiu said this, his aunt Liu Juan's face changed, and she reached out and poked Sheng Dashan who was standing in front of him.

Sheng Dashan looked back at his wife, his eyes tightened and he didn't say anything.

Third Aunt Zhang Guihua didn't change her expression, she just pursed her lips and said nothing. Sheng Dalin also kept silent with his head down and no emotion could be seen on his face.

Not only Sheng Wanqiu was observing these people, but Mrs. Sheng was also observing them. She was immediately disappointed. Her children and grandchildren had grown up and started to have their own ideas.

"Divide it! Divide it!"

"Since we are going to divide the family, then just divide it up. This will save us a lot of trouble and save an old woman like me from having to work so hard and not getting any thanks!"

"From now on! I, an old woman, will live with Huai'an and the others!"

After saying this, Mrs. Sheng seemed as if all her energy and spirit had been drained away.

"Mom, how can this be possible? If we split up the family, you should live with us!"

"Otherwise, how will others see us?" Liu Juan was unwilling. If her mother-in-law lived with the second son's family, what would happen to her family? After all, her mother-in-law was still able to work, and many things in and out of the house needed someone to take care of them.

"The second brother's family doesn't even have an adult anymore, how are you going to let these three children survive?"

"Your brothers Zhao and Lai can all do the work. As long as you don't slack off, can't you do anything too?"

"Boss, what do you say?" Mrs. Sheng asked directly, calling out Boss Sheng.

Sheng Dashan is a cowardly person. Before he couldn't give birth to a son, he felt ashamed to go out and walked with his head down. Later, he finally gave birth to a son and felt a lot more proud, but his cowardly character did not change.

"Boss, say something!" Liu Juan started to get anxious when she saw her man didn't say anything.

Sheng Dashan raised his head, his lips trembling, "Mom, divide it however you want! I have no objection, you have the final say!"

Liu Juan was almost mad with anger. What the hell was this man talking about? It was completely useless.

Sheng Wanqiu looked at Sheng Dashan. She didn't expect that this dull and cowardly man would be so tough in the end and not listen to his wife.

"Third brother, what do you two say?" Mrs. Sheng looked at her third son and daughter-in-law. "Mom, we have nothing to say. We will listen to you!" Zhang Guihua glanced at her husband and spoke first.

"Okay! Let's split up!"

"Village head, thank you for your help!" Mrs. Sheng looked at the village head.

"Okay, since you said you want to divide it, then let's divide it!" The head of the village nodded to Mrs. Sheng.

Mrs. Sheng turned around and went back to her room and took out a purse.

"You have known this for so many years, so I won't say much. There are twelve taels of silver now, which can be divided into four parts. I and your three families will each get three taels. Do you have any objections?"

The rooms you originally lived in belong to you, and the original kitchen in the yard belongs to me. You can build a kitchen by yourselves, there is plenty of open space in the yard anyway."

"All the farm tools and eating utensils should be divided into three parts. Since I'm living with Wanqiu and the others, I'll take one part!"

"There are three old hens in the yard, one for each family. The pigs haven't been slaughtered yet. When they are sold at the end of the year, they will be divided into four parts. One for me and one for each of the three families."

"There are twelve acres of good farmland and eight acres of paddy field. They are divided into four parts, one for each family, including me."

"There's only one pot now, and it belongs to me. As for my retirement after the family splits up, since I can still afford it, I won't ask you for money. Each of your two families can give me 50 kilograms of grain every year. If I really get sick and need money, all three families can contribute together. Is that okay with you?"

Mother Sheng's incessant chatter made Sheng Wanqiu and her two siblings' eyes tear up at the same time. Their grandmother seemed fierce, but in fact she was soft-hearted. She treated every one of her children very well, without too much criticism and was always fair.

She should have lived with her uncle's family, but because she and her brother were not yet adults, she wanted to live with the three of them.

On the contrary, Sheng Wanqiu saw the grandmother's preference for the original owner in the original owner's mind. The original owner was fierce and vindictive, and sometimes she was very good at playing rogue. If someone bullied her, she would definitely fight first and then talk, and she would chase people for two miles with a wooden stick.

Many times when she got into trouble, it was her grandmother who would help her clean up the mess. At most, she would scold her a few words but never hit her. She was considered the best old lady in the village.

After all, in this era, there are more people who favor boys over girls.

"You have all heard what your mother said, so I will not repeat it. I will write it clearly in the separation document. If you all agree, I will start writing the separation document!"

The head of the village admired Mrs. Sheng very much. She distributed the property fairly. She did not favor the eldest son or the youngest son like other elderly people.

Sheng Dalin and his wife were not at all confused. They were considered smart people and nodded directly to indicate that they had no objection, and that their old mother had already divided the money fairly.

After all, he has hands, feet and land. There are only two children in the family. The eldest daughter can help with housework, and the younger son can also help with housework. As long as they are diligent, there will be no problem in living.

Sheng Dashan lowered his head and said nothing, but Liu Juan jumped out.

"Mom, this isn't fair. You and Wanqiu are both old and young. I'll let the rest go, but this land can't be divided like this!"

"You can't even handle the work in the fields. If you mess up the fields, it's a waste!"
