Zhang Yun's ancient life

The news that the emperor bestowed on the newly appointed Bo Rong Lebo a man who got married spread like the wind, some people agreed, some opposed, some stood on the sidelines, and the street said everything for a while. Yes, even Zhongjinghou's Mansion has been implicated a lot.

During this period of time, rumors from the outside have spread to the inside, and there are even people who usually have grudges. The brainless people came to the door to make sarcastic remarks. As a result, the spitting star who was spat on the face came out again in disgrace.

Li Wei's eldest brother, the eldest son of the concubine, is very active these days, running around to separate the family.

It stands to reason that his father is gone, and he is a concubine raised by his aunt. His aunt doesn't want to see him. It is understandable that he wants to separate the family. Mrs. Hou has long hated the mother and son, and she is looking forward to these two people in her heart Get out of her sight quickly, so that she can be quiet for a while.

Li Jie has been very depressed recently. In the past, when the inheritance of the Hou Mansion had not been established, he was the eldest son of the Hou Mansion. Although he was not the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, his mother was also a noble concubine. The body and the heart inevitably have some expectations, so they look for people to move around, want to get that seat, and dream about the life of the next generation.

Now that the imperial decree has been issued, the title has been set, and the cruel reality has shattered his dream. All the efforts in the past seem to have become a joke now. He deeply feels that he has lost his lord, and decides to leave the Marquis Mansion and establish his own family.

Originally, this idea was not very easy to realize. After all, although his father passed away, the married Mrs. Hou was still there, so she could be regarded as his aunt. If the aunt was still there, the concubine first proposed to separate the family. , Doing so is more or less suspected of being unfilial.

Just when he was worrying, the excuse came to him by himself. The emperor actually gave his second brother a marriage, to a man. Married, I don't know if the ancestors will jump out of the grave in anger when they find out.

Ha, Li Wei, you also have today. Aren’t you a hot boy? How are you doing now? You’re going to be ridden every day soon. Let’s see what face you have when you go out.

Li Jie, who was so happy, felt that he had found a good excuse. What a good little pigtail, the couple who had been raised as sons suddenly wanted to get married, which would definitely make the old Chen feel ashamed.

If he proposes to separate the family at this time, the old Chen who doesn't want to make any jokes will definitely agree, maybe in order to stop his mouth, so that he doesn't go out and talk nonsense, it will give him some benefits, and People outside will definitely feel that they are ashamed to be with them, so they ask to be separated separately, so that no one will pick on themselves for being unfilial to their aunt.

Mrs. Laohou has long disliked Li Jie. She heard that he offered to separate the family, she was overjoyed in her heart, she readily agreed to his request, and did not stop him from asking to take his biological mother out of the house to pay filial piety. , not only asked Aunt Huan to take away all the private money she had saved over the years, but also gave her 500 taels of personal money.

However, Mrs. Hou's attitude made Li Jie misunderstand, thinking that Mrs. Hou was afraid that he would go out and talk nonsense, so she agreed to all his requests so happily. He was willing to leave only if he was given half of the family property.

After hearing this request, Mrs. Lao Hou was so annoyed that she asked someone to throw him out, saying that she wanted him to wake up and come over.

After Li Jie was kicked out, he was very upset. He felt that the Hou Mansion's lawsuits were all over their heads, and they dared to treat him slowly at this time, which showed that they didn't take him seriously. If they didn't teach him a lesson, they would be They won't know it hurts. When they feel the pain and realize that they regret it, they can just turn around and beg themselves. At that time, he can raise higher demands.

Thinking of this, Li Jie came to the patriarch's house angrily, and mentioned to the patriarch that he wanted to separate the family. The old patriarch didn't care too much at first. After all, it's normal for the clan to come to him when the family is separated. thing.

After he heard Li Jie's conditions for the separation of the family, he looked at him like a lunatic, and asked him: "You want half of the entire family property of the Hou Mansion? What made you have such an idea?"

Shouldn't he go to the school at home to have a look, isn't it the master invited by the family for the school?Li Jie didn't even go when the master was in class, otherwise, if he had a little common sense, how could he have such a weird idea.

Li Jie didn't see the eyes of the patriarch. He heard the words and returned plausibly: "Father has three sons, my brother and I, and the family property left behind belongs to the three of us. Now Li Wei is going to get married soon, so naturally it can't be regarded as a family. The Li family is dead, and after throwing him out, there are only two people left, Li Yin and I, shouldn't the family property be divided equally, and I didn't want much."

Hearing this, the old patriarch no longer looked at him like a lunatic, but instead looked at him like a fool, and said to himself, "It's okay, it's okay, it's just that he is stupid, and the family studies and teachers are still fine." '

The old patriarch calmed down and heard that Li Jie was still thinking about it, saying that his mother-in-law was unkind and treated him and the meritorious aunt harshly. It was really the old lady who wronged him, and it shouldn't be. Although Li Jie's mind is a little unclear, this is not the reason for the aunt to treat the concubine harshly.

So he asked Li Jie: "The old lady promised to give you something, come and listen to me."

Hearing this, Li Jie snapped his fingers and said, "It's just a four-way courtyard in the suburbs of Beijing, plus two shops in Beijing, and a farm and 100 mu of land in the suburbs. The patriarch, the Hou's family has a big business." , blowing a breath is more than this, do you think they are bullying me?"

Hearing the words, the old patriarch glanced at him angrily and said: "Just listening to what you said, there are eight or nine thousand taels, plus the furniture that you will carry out when you move out, and the servants who will come out with you. The softness that comes out is definitely more than 9000 taels. What are you dissatisfied with? Look at other people's family divisions. Those bastards, let alone the property of the shop, can give them a good house. It’s a good family, and most of them were kicked out after throwing a few hundred taels.”

Hearing this, Li Jie widened his eyes and said to the old patriarch: "That's different. We are the Zhongjing Hou Mansion. How can we compare with those small households of the fifth and sixth ranks? I am the eldest son of the Hou Mansion, and my family property should be I have multiple shares, but now you see, I was sent out for 1 taels. The silk shop and bank at home have no share at all, even the hundreds of hectares of land outside Beijing. Not for me."

The old patriarch fell back in anger when he heard the words. Although he is the patriarch of the Li family, his official position is not prominent. Before he became an official, he was a servant of the fifth rank. His son is now only a chief of the sixth rank. Li Jie What do you mean by that?Do you look down on their family?I can't see what you're doing here.

The old patriarch who felt the smoke coming from his head finally suppressed his breath, and said nicely: "The bank is the big Chen's dowry, the silk shop is the little Chen's dowry, those are your aunt's dowry, You have no right to share it. As for the fields on the outskirts of Beijing, they were awarded to the Zhongjing Hou Mansion by the Holy Majesty. They are lands that only the Hou Ye can inherit. Others have no right to touch them. You say these things at home. It’s okay, I just take it for fun, don’t say it outside, if you let people outside know, you will be in trouble, maybe you will lose your life.”

Li Jie shook his neck when he heard this, apparently frightened, but he still fought hard and said: "Okay, I don't want those land properties, but silk shops and banks must have my share, even if it's a dowry, they After marrying into the Zhongjinghou Mansion, you will be a member of the Zhongjinghou Mansion, and the things should naturally belong to our Zhongjinghou Mansion, so I should have a share."

The old patriarch said with a headache when he heard the words: "Why can't I explain it to you? The dowry belongs to the woman's family, and it is only given to the children born of the woman's family. This is the rule. It has been like this for thousands of years. How come Did you screw it up here?"

The old patriarch was really kind, but the helpless Li Jie couldn't listen to other people's good advice. He looked at the old patriarch suspiciously and said, "Patriarch, why do you always talk to them? What are the benefits? Let me tell you, you are the patriarch, you have to deal with things fairly, otherwise I won't obey you."

The old patriarch was really angry when he heard the words, thinking that since you can't trust the old man, why are you still looking for the old man, and immediately called someone to come over to see off the guests.

Li Jie has offended anyone who can speak, and naturally no one turned to him when the family was separated. After hearing the conditions of the separation, everyone felt that Mrs. Hou was very kind. As for Li Jie , it was ignored directly.

After the separation of the Zhongjing Hou Mansion, Li Jie changed from the eldest son of the Hou Mansion to a commoner. The huge gap made him extremely uncomfortable. However, he was still a man with high vision and low abilities, and he was only a few years after the separation. His family property given by the Hou's Mansion was almost destroyed. Only the 100 acres of land, because when the family was divided, it was stated that it could only be used and could not be resold without the consent of the Hou's Mansion. The family left a way to eat, so as not to starve to death.

Li Wei and Dongfang Hao are getting married. Mr. Wei is Li Wei's elder and Dongfang Hao's uncle. Of course, he will go back to participate. After the people in the barracks know about their marriage, everyone is also very happy. The old soldiers around Li Wei all know Dongfang Hao's thoughts on their marshal, and they can also vaguely see some of the marshal's meaning. It was a pity for them, but now that the lovers are finally married, they are also happy .

Because they can't leave the barracks without a transfer order, they can't attend the wedding of Li Wei and Dongfang Hao, but this can't stop everyone from expressing their hearts. The old people of the pro-guards have found another time to get together now , everyone discussed together to give their marshal a special gift.
