Ancient Buddhist Life

Hu Ziyi crossed his arms in front of his chest, looked at the Hu family arguing over the separation of the family with a half-smile, and sighed: "I want face, but I don't want to lose money. This Hu family is really a wonderful thing!"

Just when Hu Ziyi was planning to plan his future life, Hu Moxie, the head of the family, finally said: "Patriarch, Yihu, I really trouble you to worry about my family's affairs today. Yi them. I don't care about the rules, as long as the children live well."

"Old Hu, it's good if you can figure it out. The old people often say: the tree is forked, and the National People's Congress divides the family. The division of the family is just for everyone to live separately, and it doesn't affect each other's feelings." The patriarch looked at Hu Moxie in relief. Said.

"That's the truth. After all, blood is thicker than water, a family whose bones are broken." Hu Moxie echoed.

The patriarch nodded in satisfaction, and said to Hu Ziyi who was standing aside: "Ziyi, you heard what your grandfather said. After the family is separated, you also have to be filial to your elders, you know? Your parents passed away early, if not With the help of your grandparents and uncles, how can you brothers and sisters live a life where you can live without worrying about food and clothing. People should know how to be grateful, and don’t worry too much about everything, you know?"

Hu Ziyi smiled helplessly at the patriarch, but did not answer.He can understand the thoughts of the patriarch. After all, when people are old, they hope that their family and everything will be prosperous, and they will be sensible and filial to the younger generation.But there are exceptions to everything, not everyone is worthy of gratitude, such as the Hu family, Hu Ziyi doesn't want to have anything to do with them anymore.

"Patriarch, look at his attitude. He clearly hates us. I don't want to think that if there were elders like us, would they be able to live in peace until now?" Hu Yibei was already full of anger. Hu Ziyi's silence made him even more annoyed.

"Back, you uncle and the child care about what, I think Zi Yi just didn't understand it for a while. Give the child more time, and he will understand your painstaking efforts." Hu Yihu said to help from the side.

"Hmph! I hope so."

"Uncle Hu, why don't we talk about the separation first, it's getting late, everyone can go back to rest early, can't they?" Tired Hu Yihu just wanted to finish things quickly and go home to eat Daughter-in-law made dinner.

"Okay, my nephew Lao Lao."

"Ahem." Hu Moxie cleared his throat and said in a leisurely manner: "First, about the place to live, because the homestead I live in now is expanded on the original old homestead, so I will give it to you. Zi Yi's house is where they live now.

After the separation, if they start a new kitchen and eat separately, I will divide the existing food in the family; if they don't separate and eat with everyone, then the food will not be divided temporarily, and the food will be divided after the autumn harvest.

Second, regarding the land, the family now has a total of 170 mu of land, divided according to the four sons and our old couple, each family can be allocated 34 mu of land.Because 150 mu of land was leased to the people in the village, the 20 mu of land that the family had left to be distributed now, Zi Yi and the others could get 4 mu of land.As for the remaining 30 mu of land, because it is under the name of his fourth uncle, it can be exempted from taxes, so it will not be divided for the time being.But I will give them all the produce of the land.

Thirdly, regarding the shop and the money, since the shop was bought by the public, there is no distinction between Zi Yi and the others.But in terms of money, I will also make corresponding compensations. I just asked your aunt that there is a total of 50 taels of silver in the family, so Zi Yi and the others will be given 10 taels of silver.In addition, from the silver I owed, I took 5 taels of silver as compensation for not giving them a branch.

As for some pots and pans, chickens, ducks, pigs and sheep, these trivial matters are discussed in private. "

Hu Yihu and the patriarch were originally worried that Hu Moxibustion would deliberately embarrass Hu Ziyi and the others when the family was separated.Unexpectedly, he was not too obviously unfair, at least on the bright side, he treated everyone equally.

"Zi Yi, your grandfather also told about the family situation, and dealt with the distribution of the family property. If you agree with your grandfather's decision, we will write a document and everyone will sign to separate the family. If you have any objections, you can also Bring it up, everyone is discussing it." Hu Yihu looked at Hu Ziyi and asked.

"No problem, I agree with Grandpa's decision. But there is one thing that I want to make clear in the document, which is about supporting my grandparents. Although my parents are gone, I will do it for them because of their filial respect. Yes." Although Hu Ziyi knew that there were many loopholes in Hu Moxie's words.But for him, as long as he can leave the house, he doesn't care about other issues.

As long as they can keep themselves safe in the future and don't make trouble for themselves, they should repay the original owner's 17 years of nurturing grace, and don't care about what happened in the past with them.

"Zi Yi boy has a heart, how about this, from now on, I will give your grandparents 5 taels of filial silver every year, and usually buy something during the holidays." The patriarch looked at Hu Ziyi approvingly and said.

"Yes, thank you Patriarch."

Seeing that both parties had no objections, Hu Yihu wrote the separation document in triplicate, one copy was kept in the clan, and Hu Ziyi and Hu Moxibustion each took a copy.After both parties saw that there was no problem, they each pressed their fingerprints, and the document officially came into effect.
