Tie Kui Extra Story (170)
Ruhui brought a cup of tea to Meng Ranxi, who was so angry that his face was blue, and persuaded him, "You already knew who they were, so why bother to be angry." With Mrs. Meng's virtue, how could it be possible for them to divide the two? old man's property. Especially the old man's private property, which is said to be very rich.
Meng Ranxi said: "I'm not angry, I'm just impatient to see their faces. If the children and grandchildren don't live up to expectations, no matter how much money they get, it will be in vain."
"That's what I said. But if you don't have money, you can't read books, so how can you have a good future?" Money is not everything, but without money, it is absolutely impossible.
Meng Ranxi didn't say anything more.
Ruhui told him another thing: "I plan to move out in a few days." The two old people are gone, and there is no need to continue to live here.
Meng Ranxi said, "After I come back from my hometown, it won't be too late to move." This time, he wanted Ding You for two years.
"I don't want to continue to live to be annoying. Anyway, I will move sooner or later, and I can reorganize the unsatisfactory places if I go there earlier." Meng Ranxi will return to Beijing in late autumn at the earliest. At that time, it will be inconvenient to break ground.
Meng Ranxi was actually a little bit reluctant to part with this yard. After all, he grew up here since he was a child, and then married a wife and had children. But thinking about the farce just now, he didn't object.
An hour later, Elder Meng asked Meng Ranxi to go over. Then, Meng Ranxi brought back two thousand taels of silver and two boxes of jade ornaments and porcelain. These things are not very valuable. Only the calligraphy and paintings named by the old man are very precious.
Ruhui asked people to put the things into the warehouse, and then said to Meng Ranxi, "You are too tired these days, and you have to help Ling go back to your hometown soon, and take a good rest at home in the past two days." Scared to death.
Eldest Master Meng and Third Master Meng Fu Ling went back to their hometown, and Meng Guangpeng and the eldest son of Meng Ranxi's third house also followed. The others all stayed in the capital.
The day after Meng Ranxi left, Ruhui told Mrs. Meng about moving out.
Mrs. Meng made a few token words to keep her, and then she did as she wanted.
Grandma Meng held Ruhui's hand, and said reluctantly, "Why are you moving away in such a hurry? Wait for Third Uncle and the others to come back, and it won't be too late!" Ruhui left, and there was no one in the family who could speak his mind. There are no more people to talk to.
Ruhui said with a smile, "When he comes back, it will be winter. We can move there earlier so we can organize it." Things like the earth dragon and the greenhouse have to be installed, and the ice cellar will be ready next year.
Grandma Meng walked forward, and Grandma Chen came over on her back.
Ruhui looked at Chen's round figure and face, and joked: "You are really fat now."
"After a few years, you will be like me."
Ruhui has been controlling her diet all these years to prevent herself from gaining weight. She doesn't want to become like Chen. Although outsiders say that she is rich and blessed, she prefers her beauty.
Ruhui smiled and said, "When do you plan to move?"
Mrs. Chen shook her head and said, "I'm also thinking about moving in two days, but Guangli and his wife don't want to. We'll wait for the fifth master to come back and let him decide!" Ruhui's reason is that the second wife also separated, and she just needs to get married with her husband. Meng Ranxi can move after discussing it. But their three rooms are not separated, so if they want to move out, they have to move together. If there is no agreement, the matter is deadlocked.
"Before third uncle left, he didn't make any arrangements for this matter."
Chen's eyes showed sarcasm: "He only cares about Aunt Mian and her few children now, so he doesn't care about us. We didn't see any of the money we got this time. It's thanks to the two of us. The future of the shop is not bad, so I don’t worry about the marriage of my children. But my brother-in-law and the others are worried.” Without money, there is no way to buy a decent dowry and generous dowry. In addition, the next generation of the third family is not particularly outstanding, so it is not generally difficult to find a satisfactory marriage.
Ruhui smiled and said, "They used to ridicule you for taking money. Now, I'm afraid they are envious."
Meng Guangwu was promoted to county magistrate early last year, and he is also a parent official. And Ah Wei married the second daughter of Meng Guangwu's former classmate. Meng Guangwu's classmate Guan is older than him, and he is a fellow acquaintance of the fifth rank. The other party will agree to this marriage, except that Ah Wei is not bad, but also because they know that the Chen family is generous and their family is well-off. As for Yan'er, she is also well married.
"I'm very envious, but it's too late."
When it came to the marriage of the children, Chen said helplessly: "If you have to observe filial piety for six years, the marriage of the two children will have to be delayed."
Ruhui said: "There is no other way." Fortunately, Brother Tuan's marriage has been settled, and they only need to observe filial piety for eighteen months.
It doesn't look like much, but there is also a lot to pack. It took three days to move before the move was over.
When Ruhui left, she didn't stop on her feet. On the contrary, brother Tuan and sister Yuan are still a little bit reluctant. If you leave this time, you will be a guest when you come again.
After moving to a new home, Ruhui went back to Anyang Hou Mansion just after settling down.
Ning Hai asked: "I heard that the third house of the Meng Mansion has been making a fuss over the relationship between the old Shangshu and his wife. Ruhui, is this true?"
Ruhui briefly explained the matter, and then said: "It's also because Dafang has done too much. It would be fine if he only took part of it for himself, but he took most of it for himself." The two old people did not leave any last words. These things are big according to the rules The housing cost is 70%, and the two of them are only 30%. With such a point, the second and third bedrooms can get at most three to five thousand taels of silver. But Mrs. Meng is not willing to give this little money.
Ning Hai turned his head to look at Mrs. Xiao, and said, "Hey, old Shangshu's body is not cold yet, so they made such a fuss over eight thousand taels of silver. Old Shangshu has secret knowledge, I'm afraid he can't rest in peace."
"Ran Xi is so angry that he can't eat, but he is a junior, so he can't handle this matter." There were Elder Meng and Third Master Meng, and Meng Ranxi could only listen from the sidelines.
Ning Hai snorted coldly and said, "Only those with shallow eyelids will stare at such small gains."
The Xiao family didn't care about the Meng family's property struggle, and the left and right daughters didn't put in the money. Xiao asked with concern: "The house over there has been unoccupied for so long, if you are not used to it, you can bring Sister Yuan and the others back to live there for a few days."
"I'm keeping my filial piety now, so it's not appropriate to come back to live here." Although she knew that Ning Zhan and Zeng Chenfu didn't mind, it was no different now than before. How can all these people who are dragging their families back to their mother's house now!
After finishing speaking, Ruhui said: "Mom, I'm moving out now, and the place I live is close to home. I'll come and visit you when I have time, and if you miss me, send someone to tell me."
Xiao Shi glanced at Ning Hai, seeing that he didn't speak, he didn't insist anymore.
On the same day, Ning Hai asked the people around him to take the account books, and began to take stock of his private house.
As Xiao's bedside person, how can she not know what is in his heart: "What's so interesting, your private property should be shared equally between the two brothers." As for her private house, it must be all left to Ning Zhan.
Ning Hai didn't plan to give the private house to the two brothers, and said: "My money is for A Zhuang and Yuan Hang and their brothers." He didn't favor one over the other, divided it into five, and each of the five grandchildren got a share. As for the brothers and the others, they were ignored by Ning Hai.
ps: I also have a cold in the child's main hospital, and I can't bear the two shifts a day. I will start a shift from tomorrow at 8:00 p.m.
