1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 229 I disagree with what you said.

After the two brothers reached an agreement, they returned to their hospital room.

There was another patient in the ward. The two walked between Old Man Liu and Old Woman Liu's beds and then lowered their voices to say, "Dad, Mom, there's something we want to discuss with you."

Old Liu was in pain all over his body and asked impatiently, "What is it?"

Granny Liu didn't say anything, but you could tell from her expression that she wasn't feeling well either.

Liu Shangang looked at his own Liushanling, hoping he would speak first, but Liushanling wouldn't let him have his way.

The idea came from the boss; Liu Shanling only wanted to profit and wouldn't be the one to stick his neck out.

Liu Shangang had no choice but to speak up: "Dad, Mom, you know the current situation at home. Not to mention our eldest son's family, even my third brother's family is struggling. Right now, you need money for medical treatment, so I was thinking that since my second brother has cut ties with the family, shouldn't we take the house back?"

If this had happened in the past, the villagers might have gossiped about it, but now that he's living the best life and has built a big brick house, it's only right that we take back our own house.

Once the house is taken back, you can move in, and the house will be more spacious.

No sooner had he finished speaking than the third brother, Liu Shanling, objected: "Big brother, what do you mean?"

Liu Shangang said somewhat guiltily, "This is what I was thinking. Now that Qiangzi has separated from us, your sister-in-law and Dongzi's wife can't get along, so they inevitably bicker sometimes. I was thinking that if my parents moved into the second son's main room, they could have some peace and quiet."

Liu Shanling wasn't falling for his tricks. The eldest brother really had a good plan; he was trying to get rid of the burden on their third branch of the family.

If Mom and Dad lived in the main house allocated to the second branch of the family, separated from the first branch by their third branch, wouldn't they call on their family first if something happened to them? "Brother, I don't agree with what you're saying. You mean to let Mom and Dad live on the west side and let Dongzi and his wife live on the east side? If you're not afraid of the villagers gossiping about you, then do it." There was indeed such a custom in the village, and Liu Shangang was speechless for a moment.

Seeing that everyone was silent, Liu Shanling coughed lightly; "Here's what I'm thinking: the main house was originally swapped between my second brother and me. After the house is taken back, I'll give up the central hall, and the house on the second brother's side will be mine. What do you think of this?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Shangang objected: "How can that be?"

When Liu Shanling heard that his elder brother disagreed, he said, "I've already given up the main room, and this is still not enough? Brother, what do you mean? I don't get a share of the house that the second wife took back?"

Liu Shangang also regretted that he had been too hasty: "No, what I mean is, if that's the case, how will we build the courtyard wall? It's a perfectly good courtyard, and it's not good to build a slanted wall. That would make everyone look bad."

Liu Shanliang chuckled coldly twice; "Brother, then I won't get involved in this matter."

He expressed his attitude in one sentence.

After all that fuss, the eldest son only got one main room and one south-facing room. What did he gain? It's like he only got one side room and half a south-facing room, since the main gate is on the west side, taking up half the space of the south-facing room.

Neither of the two brothers wanted to back down, so in the end, it was Old Man Liu who made the decision: the eldest son's family would get the main house, and the third son's family would get the two side rooms and the south-facing room. In the future, if the eldest son's family made a comeback, the south-facing room opposite the main house would be sold to the eldest son's family at a price.

Without the second wife's knowledge, they decided on the ownership of the house.

Old Man Liu had other intentions in not going too far before, but judging from today's events, that bastard is probably determined not to care about him, so that's fine.
