Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 23
Ye Fengxian, the old lady and the old man who was still dressing in the room were all taken aback when they heard this.

"Separation? What nonsense are you talking about?" The old man hurriedly put on his belt, and walked out with a livid face.

"There is a law in the Dalong Dynasty. Those who are not high-ranking officials are not allowed to take concubines; those who are not over forty and have no children are not allowed to take concubines; those who have famous wives are not allowed to take concubines. Uncle is not included in these three conditions, although since ancient times , It’s because the people don’t sue the officials and don’t investigate, but what if I take this matter to the county government and sue my uncle? I will go to jail, right? Three years!”

"Ye Qiongdan! Are you crazy, girl? This is your uncle! Don't you even recognize your uncle? You want to do something cruel to your uncle! Do you think that if you survive this catastrophe, God will do it later?" Indulging you to do whatever you want, if I don't beat you to death today, how can I be my family!"

The old man immediately picked up the broom in the yard and hit Ye Qiongdan hard.

Ye Qinghan took a step forward, grabbed the broom, and threw it outside the fence.

"White-eyed wolf! You are a white-eyed wolf who has eaten Ye Jiami and doesn't know how to repay you!" The old man cursed again, picked up a bench beside him, and threw it at the two of them.

Ye Qiongdan quickly pushed Ye Qinghan away and dodged himself.

"Grandpa, don't worry, you are old, and my elder brother and I are still young, it's not so easy for you to beat us up," Ye Qiongdan said lightly, "I only give you two choices, either share home, or I will sue my uncle."

"Hurry up and divorce my concubine!" The old man glared at Ye Fengxian.

"Father, I won't stop!" Ye Fengxian hugged Piaoxu girl's waist tightly, and said with his neck stuck.

"It's useless to divorce, this girl has been brought into our house, there are witnesses everywhere from the town to the village, I can sue uncle to jail with my eyes closed!"

"Do you know what going to jail means to your uncle? It means that he will never be able to take the imperial examination again. What good will it do you?" the old man asked sadly.

"The third house has paid the big house money for so many years, didn't it get benefits?" Ye Qiongdan smiled, "If you don't want uncle to go to jail, you can divide the family!"

"Wouldn't it be shameful for the children to separate while the parents are still alive?" The veins on the old man's forehead popped out.

"Which is more embarrassing than going to jail or breaking up?"

The old man was almost dizzy by Ye Qiongdan's anger, so he could only grit his teeth and say, "Okay! Split up! Split up! I really regret that I didn't throw you into the ditch and drown you when you were born!"

Ye Qinghan glanced at his younger sister nervously, afraid that she would cry because of the old man's words, but unexpectedly, his younger sister did not care much.

Half an hour later, the second daughter-in-law rushed back from the next village with three maids. The patriarch and Li Zheng also sat in the house drinking tea, and the outside of Ye's house was surrounded by villagers watching the excitement.

The patriarch looked at the house deed, land deed, land deed and silver taels handed in, and after discussing with Li Zheng, he said to everyone inside and outside the house: "Then divide the things into five equal parts. One for each of the four rooms."

"I don't agree," said the untied eldest daughter-in-law. "The old couple has the monthly silver paid by the second and third families, so they can't starve to death at all. And the second and third families can make money, even if they have no house or no We can earn land and no land by ourselves. But our Dafang is different. There are three scholars in Dafang. As the saying goes, if all the property does not belong to our Dafang, won’t it kill everyone in our Dafang? "

"Wang Suxin, do you want to be shameless?" The second wife's daughter-in-law immediately became excited, "You are not earning money, you are justified, right? I have never seen someone being a rice bug with such peace of mind. Our second wife said it a long time ago, no If you are honored by your big family, you can never expect to be honored by us! Want to take away all the family property? Unless I, You Yue'e, die here today!"

As the saying goes, although a woman is weak, she is strong as a mother. For the marriage of the three daughters, she must fight for a generous family fortune!

"Then give the fourth house's property to our eldest house first," said the eldest house's wife, "What kind of property does he need as a fool? Patriarch, Master Lizheng, Shanghe Village has always had the custom of abandoning family burdens. When the elderly reach the age of 70, if the family is poor, they will be sent up the mountain and thrown off the cliff. If the family has too many children and cannot afford them, they will also be sent to the mountain and thrown down. My uncle eats and drinks for nothing at Ye’s house. After many years, he has had enough to enjoy the blessings, it is time for him to be reincarnated!"

"Uncle, you embezzled fourth uncle's property, I can only say that you are shameless, but what did fourth uncle eat and drink all these years? Raising him for a year will not cost you a penny, nor will it cost you ten years." It's only a tael of silver, you can be selfish, but you can't be so cruel! You are killing people!" Ye Qiongdan couldn't listen anymore.

"Yo, sounds nice? If you are capable, you can raise your uncle!" The eldest daughter-in-law sneered.

"Then take out the uncle's property and return it to the third room?"

"You're dreaming! Uncle's share of property should be shared equally! And your second and third roommates can earn money on their own, and the second wife already has money, so you shouldn't divide the property!"

"So it's still a word, your wife wants all the property, right?" Ye Qiongdan asked impatiently.

"That's what we deserve," the eldest wife said confidently, "In the future, if someone in our eldest family wins a job, won't you follow suit?"

"I'm sorry, but I really don't want to take advantage of you," Ye Qiongdan said coldly, "The third house can give up the property inheritance, but we have one condition, that is, to completely sever kinship with the eldest house!"

As soon as this remark came out, the whole village was in an uproar.

"Is Ye Qiongdan crazy? What good does cutting off kinship do her?"

"That's right, without Uncle Scholar, how will she marry in the future?"

"She will regret it later!"

……

"No!" The eldest daughter-in-law immediately retorted, "You can't sever the kinship relationship, you must pay our eldest son money for us to raise a successor!"

"Then according to the ruling of Li Zheng and the patriarch, let my third party take one-fifth of the property." Ye Qiongdan said calmly.

After discussing for a while, the Dafang couple could only agree.

"Let's discuss how to divide the uncle's property, but I have one condition. I will take the uncle away and let the uncle completely sever ties with the big house. If you don't agree, then follow the decision of Li Zheng and the patriarch. Let my uncle take away one-fifth of the property." Ye Qiongdan said again.

The first daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

So, under the witness of the whole village, Ye Qiongdan wrote four severance letters, signed them respectively, and put their fingerprints on them.

The big house couple also signed their names and got their fingerprints, and the uncle was also held by Ye Qiongdan and got his fingerprints.

The Dafang and the Sanfang each kept a copy of the severance letter, and the patriarch of the Ye clan kept a copy, and sent it to the county government to keep a copy.

"Then let's go first," Ye Qiongdan said quickly, "We will move out of Ye Zhai before dark."

"Do you want to stay for another two days? Don't you owe a lot of money for selling meals?" the eldest daughter-in-law said hypocritically.

"No need, I heard that Master Qian's house is going to be rented out, so I plan to rent it out."

When everyone heard the words "Master Qian's house", their faces changed.

"Is Ye Qiongdan really crazy? Master Qian's house is very haunted. The Qian family moved to the town for three years. They stayed in the big house in the village and rented six people. Eight people died! Lian Zhang Mr. Zhang from Jiawan can't do anything about the evil spirits in this house."

"Cheap goods are not good, and good goods are not cheap. Although his mansion is big and cheap, the annual rent is only one tael of silver, but this kind of ghost house, I don't want it for nothing!"

"Hey, what did you say that if you survive a catastrophe, you will have future blessings? I think it's all nonsense. After Dan girl woke up, she went farther and farther on the road to death!"

……

Ye Qinghan took Ye Qiongdan's hand, walked out of the house resolutely in the midst of unsatisfactory discussions, and silently began to carry the meals that were going to be sold on the pier today.Wearing an old dark green suit, he was tall and silent, like a huge ancient pine tree, sheltering the two families from wind and rain.

Ye Qiongdan asked earnestly and curiously: "Brother, everyone believes in ghosts and gods, aren't you afraid?"

"I support all the decisions of the third sister." Ye Qinghan said firmly while carrying things silently.

Ye Qiongdan only felt a faint warm current slip through her heart, she smiled slightly, and said in a clear voice, "Brother, I will not let you down!"

Ye Qinghan's footsteps paused, he really felt that the third sister who survived the catastrophe had changed a lot, but he liked her change, and he also believed that the future would definitely be better.

So, he moved the corners of his lips slightly, covered his strange emotions with layers of black cloth on his face, and walked forward quickly.

Half an hour later, Lao Lutou and several coachmen from neighboring villages staggered to the town, and Ye Qinghan quickly unloaded more than ten barrels of food.

At this time, there was still an hour and a half before noon, and after the meals were transported to the pier, no one came to buy them.

The two packed everything up and waited for the packers to finish their work at noon. A group of people carried a stretcher and placed it in front of them.

"It's poisoned to death! The food they cook is poisoned to death!" An old woman began to shout hoarsely, "Come and take a look, take a look! The unscrupulous peddler has poisoned the food! We The old man is going to be poisoned to death!"

Soon, there was a crowd of onlookers around.

Among these people, there are passing boat passengers, nearby townspeople, and surrounding vendors. They more or less followed suit to taste the fast food sold by Senior Brother and Sister Ye. At this time, when they heard that the fast food was poisonous, they immediately became nervous. , looked at the two brothers and sisters with unkind eyes.

"What a black-hearted trader! I don't know if we have anything to do, should we go see a doctor?"

"Let's see the situation first. Well, I suddenly feel uncomfortable too."

"Me too, if their food is really poisonous, I will definitely sue them for being penniless!"
