The matter of dividing a family is not simple. It is not just about taking out the ledger and dividing things.Dingguo Gongfu has many properties, including land, shops, farms, houses, gold, silver and jewelry, etc.These things must be valued and divided into three parts.

The same land, shops and houses have different values ​​in different locations, and the value of jewelry must be estimated.So for the next period of time, the masters and servants of Duke Dingguo's mansion were very busy.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, and Tang Shuyi said to Jianing and Xie Xihua after lunch: "The family will be separated in the future. Call your parents and elders over, and we will divide the property among the public."

Jianing and Xie Xihua both knew that they had no choice but to comply with this matter, so they nodded and understood.After talking for a while, the children said goodbye and left.Then Jia Ning and Xie Xihua both went back to their parents' homes to talk about the separation.

One day later, Mr. Xie Erye and his wife, as well as Prince Duan and his son, came to Dingguo Palace early and everyone gathered in the hall.After chatting for a while, Xiao Huai said: "When the children grow up, they have to learn to run their own small family, so my wife and I decided to divide the family property among the three children."

Although Mr. Xie and Prince Duan were shocked that Mr. and Mrs. Ding Guo were going to separate their families so early, they were both outsiders. Inviting them here today was just for them to be witnesses to avoid any disputes in the future.

However, they were surprised again when they heard Xiao Huai said that he would distribute the property to the three children.After all, in Daqian, women are not allowed to participate in the division of family property. Even if a family favors their daughter, it will only give her more dowry when she gets married.

But again, they are all outsiders, and they have no right to comment on how the Dingguo government split up the family.Furthermore, no matter how much things Dingguo Gong and his wife gave Xiao Yuzhu, neither Xie Erye and his wife nor Duanqin Wang and his son would take it too seriously.

One is because neither the Xie family nor Prince Duan's palace are ordinary rich, and they will not take a little money seriously.Second, whether it is Xiao Yuchen or Xiao Yuming, they see a bright future and they are both capable of earning another family fortune.

Therefore, Xie Erye and his wife, as well as Prince Duan and his son, responded to Xiao Huai's words with smiles.

"I have asked people to sort out the property of the Duke. You all can take a look." Xiao Huai said and asked people to take one copy of the account book and divide it among them.

Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie both took a rough look at it, while Prince Duan flipped through two pages and put them aside. Li Jinghao also flipped through them casually.They were just witnesses, and they also believed that Ding Guogong and his wife would not be biased. If they looked at the account books carefully at this time, they would be a little petty.

Of course, Prince Duan simply didn't have the patience to watch.

After they all finished reading, Xiao Huai asked someone to distribute the property distribution plan to everyone. At this time, Tang Shuyi said:

"The property of the father-in-law is equally divided among the three brothers and sisters. The value of the property, shop and jewelry are all estimated based on the current value. There may be some discrepancies, but they will not be too big. If you have any ideas, please feel free to ask me now You can bring it up.”

As soon as her voice fell, Xiao Yuchen immediately said: "My son has no objection."

Xiao Yuming also said quickly: "Me neither."

"I...I shouldn't have divided so much." Xiao Yuzhu said.

According to the conventional way of dividing the family, she has no right to participate in the division of property. Now she is touched and worried.I am worried that my brother and sister-in-law are worried about the family separation.

But at this time Tang Shuyi said: "You are our children just like your two brothers. Naturally, you should be like them in everything."

Her tone was matter-of-fact and unquestionable at the same time.

"We listen to our father and mother in everything." Jianing quickly expressed his position.

"Yes, mother is right." Xie Xihua said immediately.

It's not that the two of them regard money as dirt, so they have no objection to dividing the family like this. First, although there are a lot of things distributed to Xiao Yuzhu, it is not so much that they would make the family uneasy because of those things.

Secondly, they know better than anyone how good their lives have been after marrying into Duke Dingguo's palace. There is really no need to make everyone unhappy and break the good life just for some money.

Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai were very satisfied with their attitude. None of the children were fussy or short-sighted people.

"Well, if you have no objections, let's split it up like this." Tang Shuyi added, "I'll go to the Yamen to file the record tomorrow."

This was the end of the family separation. Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai left Xie Erye and his wife and Prince Duanqin and his son to have lunch.Prince Duan wanted to leave, but he was a little frightened when he saw Xiao Huai.But Mr. Xie and the others all stayed. He was afraid that if he said to leave, Xiao Huai would be unhappy, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and stay.

There was still some time before lunch, so Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai gave Mr. Xie and Prince Duan a chance to talk to Xie Xihua and Jianing.After all, family separation is not a trivial matter, and they may have something to say in private.

Tang Shuyi and Xiao Huai returned to Shi'an Garden and leaned comfortably on the couch. Tang Shuyi said with a smile: "I once had a colleague whose children were admitted to college and went to school in other places. In those days, she would hum a tune every day when she went to work, saying I am finally relaxed and can enjoy the life I want, I feel that way now.”

Xiao Huai laughed, and he felt very relaxed.

"When shall we set off?" he asked.

"Let's wait until Jianing gives birth to the baby." Tang Shuyi said, "We don't have to be in a hurry then. We can just walk and play together. If we like it, we can stay for a while."

"Okay." Xiao Huai naturally had no objection, and he also said: "I will make a strategy later."

The two of them felt really relaxed and happy when they thought about their beautiful life in the future.

We were all on our own, so there was no separate table for lunch. We all had a lively meal together.Then Xie Erye and his wife and Prince Duan and his son said goodbye.

On the way home, Mrs. Xie said: "If you think about it carefully, it is really good to separate the assets early. There will be no conflicts between the houses because they are thinking about the property at home. They can each use their own money on weekdays. There will not be much injustice." Things happened, and Duke Dingguo and his wife were relieved."

"But how many of them can think as Ding Guogong and his wife think?" Mr. Xie said: "Power and money are the basis of strength. Only by holding these two things in hand can we have authority. If we divide it early, If it goes down, the majesty of those in power in the family will be reduced, and they will lose power in speaking and doing things.”

Mrs. Xie Er sighed, but immediately laughed again, "Anyway, it is a great good thing that Xihua has made his own decision early."

Not to mention going to the capital, but also in the whole world, after getting married, most women have to wait for many years before they can take charge of the family.Just like her now, who is several decades old, sometimes she still has to look at other people's faces.
