Chapter 309 Everyone can have opinions, but you can't.
Mrs. Qiu was surprised to receive a hundred yuan. Although she couldn't get the money now, the eldest son's family couldn't deny it later. After glancing at her husband, she said directly, "Grandma, we understand. We'll do as you say."

Since things are already like this, arguing about it now would be pointless and would only make us a laughingstock.

In this way, the worst they would suffer is that they would have to pay for the banquet themselves, and the only other thing they wouldn't get is cash. On the contrary, they wouldn't have to hand over the gift money they received, and they might even make a profit.

When the eldest branch of the family heard what Grandma Qiu said, they felt that their branch hadn't gotten much of a bargain. However, judging from the current situation, the second branch was indeed at a disadvantage. After all, they received money but didn't get cash, and they also had to bear the cost of Shao Cheng's wedding banquet themselves.

Seeing that they remained silent, Grandma Qiu turned directly to her eldest grandson: "Laifeng, what do you think of this distribution?"

Even his second brother had no objections, so if he dared to say 'no,' he'd be drowned in spittle: "Grandma, I have no objections."

Grandma Qiu scanned the crowd and said, "If you have any objections, raise them now. If you don't, don't come looking for trouble later."

At this moment, Aunt Qiu asked, "So how will Grandma and Dad's retirement be arranged in the future?"

Grandma Qiu glanced at her and said, "If you have no objections to the previous arrangements, then let's talk about our retirement."

She hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Your second uncle."

She had barely begun speaking when Old Man Qiu, Qiu Shaofeng's grandfather, chimed in: "Mom, my second brother has been gone for many years. I'll take care of you in your old age."

Grandma Qiu's second son passed away from illness some years ago. After mourning for him for a year, her daughter-in-law remarried, taking her two sons with her. However, she still lived on a farm in the northern suburbs.

Old Qiu, who rarely spoke, stood up at this moment: "I don't care what you think. Now that your second uncle is gone, it is my responsibility as the eldest son to take care of the old lady. After the family is divided, we will live with the eldest son. The second son will give one yuan a month, plus thirty catties of grain. The rest is up to you. If she gets sick in the future, the two families will split the cost equally."

After saying that, he looked at his two sons and asked, "Do you have any objections?" The two sons quickly shook their heads and replied, "No objections."

Seeing that his son had no objections, he decided to say it all at once: "The house belongs to whoever lives there now. After we're gone, these two rooms will go to the eldest son's family. Second son, you don't have any objections, do you?"

Mr. Qiu waved his hand: "No objection."

After all, his grandma and dad would be living with his eldest brother in the future, and the house would belong to the eldest son's family, which was in accordance with the rules. Besides, a good son doesn't eat the food of dividing the family property, and he would never make things difficult for his dad and grandma.

Seeing that the second son had no objections, Old Man Qiu continued, "That's the general direction. As for the grain and other things in the house, we'll divide them when we ask a middleman to come and write the family division document after Shao Cheng gets married and returns to his parents' home."

Zhang Shanmei, who was in her postpartum confinement period at home, was very anxious. When her husband came in, she asked, "How is he?"

As soon as Qiu Shaohu coldly explained the situation, Zhang Shanmei immediately became anxious: "So, does that mean that after this family division, our house will be burdened with a debt of 130 yuan?"

Qiu Shaohu glared at his wife: "Of course, it's all because of you. You better keep a low profile these next few days, otherwise your brother, sister-in-law, and Shaohe will definitely be upset. If you cause any more trouble, see how I deal with you."

Zhang Shanmei was furious when she heard this: "We hadn't separated the family before, how could Great-Grandma divide it like this?"

"Shut up! Anyone can have a problem, but you can't. Just shut up."
