reborn as husband and wife

Today is the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, and the old lady finally started to act. She called the elders of the clan to gather in the lobby to discuss the division of the family. Su Qingqi, who had just returned from the "blood feeding" of the Mu family, was called over.

Entering the lobby, there are a lot of people inside, some of them have snow-white beards, and they look respectable. It seems that they have a high status in the clan, and they are sitting dignifiedly. The identities of the people present are all Not low, the atmosphere of the whole scene is also solemn and solemn, the old lady is sitting on the first seat supported by the eldest lady, the old man is still not there.

Sitting down on the seat, Su Qingqi looked around at the group of people around him, many of whom he had never seen before. In fact, the elders of the He family did not need to come forward to split up the family. After all, the separation is a private matter of his own family. I solemnly summoned everyone to come here, I am afraid that the procedure must be fair and strict, lest someone say it is unfair in the future.

"Elders in the family, on weekdays, everyone is busy with their own affairs. We called you here today. One is to get closer to each other. On the other hand, we discussed it with our descendants a few days ago. , decided to divide this family so that each can have more space to develop their own family business, and I would like to invite everyone to be a witness today." The old lady cleared her throat and said slowly.

"Xiuqin, please announce the results we have sorted out in the past two days, so that everyone can understand the current family business of the He family." The old lady patted the eldest lady next to her and asked her to talk.

The eldest lady was obviously ready for a long time, she took a step forward with a smile on her face, looked around at everyone present, her eyes stayed on Su Qingqi's face for a moment, and she showed a smug smile, "All the properties of the He family a few days ago My mother and I have done the math. My master and Chen Yi own two inns, a gold jewelry store, a piece of land seven miles east of the city, a restaurant and a teahouse, and my third uncle’s is an inn, two blocks to the west of the city. Land, two garment shops, the fourth uncle's is a racecourse and two nearby teahouses, and a restaurant managed by younger siblings, and then, Chen Xu has the largest share, and Chen Xu is also striving, although the second uncle is very early He left him, but he still developed the family business very well. He has three inns in the city, three relatively large restaurants, two gold jewelry stores, and a piece of land in the west and east of the city. People grow crops, there is a pawnshop and two clothing stores on West Street, and there are three inns and restaurants in Kyoto."

Speaking of this, the eldest lady paused, and seeing the reaction of the group of people below from the corner of her eye, they were all dumbfounded, and couldn't believe that a junior had the economic lifeline of the He family in their hands.

The old lady showed a meaningful smile, and stretched out her hand, and the eldest lady hurried over to help her, with a humble and courteous attitude, filial and virtuous, "Everyone has heard that, although our He family has a lot of business and property in their hands, the allocation It is indeed uneven. Look at Chen Xu's boy is capable, but which family's younger generation holds more business than the elders. Taking advantage of this separation, the old man also nodded, and the separation will be divided. What do you think of the fairness and clarity of the original, with slight changes on the original basis?"

The people below began to discuss. For a while, the lobby looked like a vegetable market. Some people expressed their admiration for He Chenxu, while others felt that the original distribution of the family was too unbalanced. How could a junior manage such a situation? Multi-industry, in short, each expresses his own opinion.

It took a long time for the lobby to return to its original silence. An old man said slowly, "I think it should be changed. From ancient times to the present, there has never been a junior who is in charge of the house. This kind of phenomenon is really unethical."

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone echoed them, thinking that the words were justified, and the etiquette left by the ancestors should not be broken at any time, even if it was for myself, seeing that the property in the hands of a nephew and nephew was more than that of an elder, counting how many times Times, not reconciled to it.

Su Qingqi sneered silently. The industries in Chen Xu's hands were developed step by step. At the beginning, there were no more than those uncles. After so many years, Chen Xu expanded the family business. Shameless, I began to think about getting naked, which is really disgusting.

As soon as my heart gets angry, my brain starts to get confused. Tomorrow night is New Year's Eve. Chen Xu's case is not over yet. That maid has suffered from blood for so many days, especially this morning I have been cruel enough to feed her twice as much as usual Many, why haven't you woke up yet? I told Mu Zhifu the identities of those suspects yesterday, and I don't know if I have started an investigation now. A burst of dizziness struck Su Qing, frowning, propping her head up with her hands, her body was weak and weak.

"Well, since everyone thinks that this family should be divided, let Xiuqin announce the results of our discussions a few days ago, and raise any objections. As your mother and grandma, I will not favor anyone. , you can rest assured, and, as I said earlier, you will all move to live in your own house after the separation. Can you hear clearly?" Although the old lady was asking a question, she didn't have a chance for everyone to speak, so she asked the eldest lady to start announcing.

"We are distributed according to the population. In our family, Honglin and Chenyi are two adult men. The second uncle is gone and only Chenxu is there. The third uncle's family only has a daughter, Ningxuan. The fourth uncle's family has a son and a daughter. We are young, but we don't treat them badly. Since ancient times, the old and young have been orderly. Starting from our family, Honglin, on the basis of the original, we assigned two restaurants and a gold jewelry store under Chenxu's jurisdiction to us. As for the uncle, the inn gold jewelry store and tailor-made clothing store in Chenxu's hands were assigned to the third uncle's house, and the fourth uncle's house was divided into an inn pawn shop and a piece of land on Chenxu's side, roughly like this, Chenxu What was allocated was a restaurant and an inn, a piece of land in the west of the city, and those inns and restaurants in Kyoto remained untouched."

The eldest lady talked eloquently, and the elder master pursed his lips and smiled complacently. The third master was also satisfied and kept nodding. He was stupid enough to share so many things without doing anything. If you have to ask this one, it's better not to offend. The fourth master is not at home, and the fourth wife is present. The fourth wife is a reserved and quiet lady. Naturally, she talks too much on this occasion. The fourth master doesn't care about these things. If he came back and found that the family had been divided, he would definitely be furious.

Others were also whispering to each other and watching the excitement. The lady's division was really unfair, and anyone with a discerning eye could see it. However, everyone was an outsider, and none of their own family raised any objections. One by one, they watched with the attitude of watching a play.

At this time, Su Qingqi stood up from his seat, raised his haughty chin, looked straight ahead at the happy smiling lady, and said coldly, "Objection!"

"What did you say?" The smile on the lady's face froze all of a sudden, her well-maintained face was distorted and almost deformed, obviously she didn't expect that Su Qingqi would have the courage to openly object in front of the clansmen.

"The distribution is unfair! Da Furen, the family property in Chen Xu's hands is all his own hands, and he didn't get it at the beginning. Now we are talking about dividing the family, but he is giving the results of his hard work to others. , don't you think it's too much?" Su Qingqi still had that cold and arrogant temper, and his words were straightforward, without saving any face for the eldest lady.

"Chen Xu grew up in this family. Everything he eats and wears belongs to the He family. Before the division of the family, the family business he has worked hard for belongs to the He family as a whole. In terms of it, there is not a single bit of it that belongs to him." It’s just a redistribution now, and it’s unfair in the past!” The lady stared at those eyes, and she couldn’t put on a good face towards Su Qingqi.

"Hehe, madam, you can really joke," Su Qingqi sneered, his cold voice was not high, but it was enough for everyone present to hear clearly, "At the beginning, when Chen Xu was 16 years old, the old man gave him a restaurant, a A small inn, and a piece of land, that's all. As far as I know, at that time, the old master was in charge of two restaurants, three inns, three pieces of land in the north of the city, the west of the city, and the south of the city, a gold jewelry store, and three Everyone in the clothing store must be aware of this gap. At that time, who dared to say that the distribution was uneven? There were more seniors and fewer juniors. Yes, it made sense. After a few years, everyone has developed. Now Start talking about uneven distribution, why did you go early? Huh?"

The old man lowered his head and didn't dare to look around, because the brothers and sisters in the clan, and the close relatives from afar looked at him with that kind of eyes. He was really ashamed at a lot of age, and he couldn't help scolding the old lady in his heart. It seems unfair, and in front of so many relatives and friends, now a junior pointed it out in person, isn't it a loss of face, really!

The eldest lady was so angry that her facial muscles began to twitch. Of course, she saw the dissatisfied eyes of her man and the disdainful eyes of all relatives in the lower clan, "Su Qingqi! Do you have a place to speak here? Are you here?" What identity is standing here? A big man has no shame, Chen Xu didn’t say anything, can it be your turn to speak? Can you replace him? What kind of thing are you!” The people in the clan were even more dissatisfied when they heard this.

"This is the male wife that the Second Young Master married. How dare you say such things on such an occasion!"

"Forget it, it's not like being doted on by the second young master. It stands to reason that the eldest lady is also his aunt. Thinking about it, he is an ignorant man who doesn't know how to speak so bluntly!"

"Look at how handsome this man is, no wonder he fascinated the second young master, much more pleasing to the eye than the rabbit master in the kiln!"

"Come on, don't stare at people, it's not yours if you see through it, it's the second young master's!"

"The second young master was arrested and taken into the Yamen! He hasn't come back yet!"

Su Qingqi stood there steadily, his eyes drifted past the eldest lady, as if watching a group of flies, with alienation and displeasure, he frowned slightly and did not speak.

This series of demeanors was interpreted as Su Qingqi's disdain to argue with this woman, otherwise she would lower her status. Coincidentally, the eldest lady also thought so, and Su Qingqi repeatedly sang against her, even more firmly With an idea, Su Qingqi looked down on her as an eldest aunt.

Thinking that she is also a rich lady, a shameless man would disdain her, what an insult to her, strode towards Su Qingqi, with monstrous anger, distorted face, people around opened their mouths to see Seeing this scene, what is the lady going to do? !

Su Qingqi frowned, and took a step back calmly, preparing for the attack from behind.

Approaching Su Qingqi step by step, the eldest lady ordered sharply, "Come on, get this man out of here!"

The lady seemed to have made arrangements a long time ago, a few strong men came out from the side, walked up to Su Qingqi and stuck his shoulder, Su Qingqi couldn't move for a while, and looked at the lady in front of him who was about to spit fire with warning .

"Xiuqin! What are you doing! Come back quickly!" The old lady could also see that the lady was losing her composure. As soon as she met Su Qingqi, the lady's self-cultivation would be gone. Where was the virtuous and docile at the beginning? Mad ignorant woman.

The eldest lady turned her head and glanced at the old lady, and saw that she was already dissatisfied, and looked at her reproachfully, as if she was complaining that there are so many outsiders here, so you can't pay attention, you are like a loser to the He family!

"Hmph!" The lady snorted coldly, if the old lady wasn't here, she would have insisted on getting rid of this evil today, anyway, the person who protected him was not there, so when He Chenxu came back, would it be possible that he would blame himself for a man? , I am his elder, and besides the old lady, the more I think about it, the more I think it is feasible, so I quickly put away the ferocious eyes in the beginning, and put on a bright smile.
