When Mr. Lin was young, he traveled all over the world and served as the master of several small officials, so he was not unfamiliar.
However, because he followed the wrong master, and the last seventh-rank county magistrate got into trouble, he fled in a hurry and returned to his hometown, but he never dared to mention his past affairs again. He honestly married the daughter of a farmer's family as his wife, and lived the life of a farmer's family where the sun rises and the sun goes down...
That's why Lin Fufu felt that he didn't look like a villager, and that's why...
Looking back, for the four hundred taels of silver, in Dawei, a family of three would only spend ten taels of silver a year, and four hundred taels would last forty years.
The second child's family was sold for less than forty taels of silver, let alone four hundred taels.
"Father, don't say they can't get it out. Both A Fen and A Fang agreed to pay the money every month. After ten or twenty years, it's almost four hundred taels?" Zhao said. Said with a salivating face, then looked at Lin Fufu and asked, "Is this how the Gospel is calculated?"
After hearing what the eldest daughter-in-law said, Mr. Lin turned his mind, but he didn't say anything.
Lin Fufu didn't pay attention to Mrs. Zhao, just looked at Mr. Lin and said, "Grandpa, look, it's not that they don't want the second uncle's family to be separated, but they want them to pay the price to separate the family. If they don’t give them a field, they will starve their family to death.”
Old man Lin blushed, and then looked at Lin Fufu with displeasure and asked, "Gospel, this is a matter between the elders, you junior, don't interfere!"
"If the uncle beat the second aunt almost to death, I, a junior, would not have intervened if she came to find me. But no matter, the second aunt is dead?" Lin Fufu looked straight at Mr. Lin, "Could it be Let my aunt go to court and go to jail? Will the Lin family lose face?"
When it came to Zhao's beating Feng's incident, the Zhao family dared not say a word.
Mr. Lin blushed, and he knew that what she said was reasonable. If she hadn't reached out to save Feng Shi, Feng Shi would have died if his blood dried up.
It's unethical to come to her when you want to save someone, and then kill the donkey after saving the person.
But Mr. Lin considered himself an elder, and he didn't think he was wrong, so he kept his old face and said nothing.
"Grandpa, as long as we separate, we are willing to pay you and grandma monthly pension money, which is not as much as my aunt said. We can't afford it at all, even if our family eats chaff and dirt. !" Ah Fen finally mustered up the courage again to look at Mr. Lin and said.
When Mr. Lin saw that the eldest granddaughter of Erfang, who usually seemed timid and hard-working, even said about paying the pension money, he knew that the separation of the second bedroom was imminent.
It's not that he can pass by deliberately suppressing and ignoring it.
Besides, Shouye is going to take the rush exam again this year, and this money also needs to be raised.
Mr. Lin lowered his head, no one knew what he was thinking.
But Lin Fufu knew that this time he had to make a choice, because A Fen and A Fang had invited Li Zheng before. Although they didn't invite Li Zheng, the news of Lin's second family's quarrel with each other had already spread.
No matter how hard it is to separate the family, no one can guess that Mr. Lin is suppressing the second family and doing things for the old family.
Mr. Lin thought the same way in his heart, it really doesn't work if we don't distinguish...
He quickly calculated in his mind that after the third wife died of dystocia, the old house of the Lin family had already done a disgraceful job, and the second wife was beaten by the old lady and passed out. It is really unreasonable to let the family split up.
As if he had aged ten years, Mr. Lin finally raised his head, his old eyes glanced at the faces of everyone present, and then said in a calm voice, "Let's divide, let's divide."
A Fen and A Fang hugged each other immediately after hearing the words.
Lin Dahe stared blankly at Mr. Lin with disbelief.
Although he is honest, he is not stupid. The old man suppressed him and refused to let the family be separated for the sake of the big house, but now that the old man opened his mouth, he panicked.
"Father... about the money?" Lin Dahe's heart pounded, so why not the Feng family
The husband and wife looked at Mr. Lin nervously.
"Four hundred taels, your family can't afford it no matter what, so how about it, after you split up, give me two taels of money every month." Mr. Lin said solemnly, and then glanced at Lin Fu again, "Good news, your family will also share with you The second uncle's family is the same, starting from this month, they will have to pay two slings."
Lin Fufu sneered, the old man blamed her for meddling, so he punished her by paying an extra penny.
"Okay." Although she was angry in her heart, she still agreed happily.
But both Mrs. Zhao and Mrs. Wu were dissatisfied. Mrs. Wu glared at Mr. Lin angrily, and said cursingly, "Old man, are you stupid? Two hangings a month is too little, right?"
"Mother, two taels of money a month is two taels of silver, and it costs twenty-four taels a year. I...we can't afford it at all..." Feng cried. The Wu family still thinks it's too small, this is clearly killing their second wife and four members!
Not to mention a penny a month, even a few coppers a month, they can't get it out now.
Feng Shi even guessed that according to the partiality of the old couple of the Lin family to the first wife, and the greed of the first wife, their second wife must have left the house without leaving the house.
"Two times a month, you are still crying? Don't you have two maids in your family? Send them to a rich family to be maids, and maybe you will become the rich young master's little wife, so you will lose it!" Zhao said angrily.
She has already figured out the old man's temper these years.
If he has made up his mind, no one can change it.
But fortunately, the old man also increased the old-age pension of the third family, which made her feel a little better.
But Mrs. Zhao's words angered Mrs. Feng. She was weak and rushed forward to beat Mrs. Zhao. She cried and scolded, "Sister-in-law, are you sorry for saying this? You are the child's uncle, serious Who will give their daughter to the rich man's little wife? Would you like your two daughters?"
Lin Dahe rushed up and hugged Feng Shi lazily, for fear that she would be beaten by Zhao Shi because she was weak. It can be seen that Lin Dahe has done a good job in treating his wife, which is one of the reasons why Lin Fufu still has a little affection for him.
"That's enough, you guys! No one can talk about being a concubine for a rich family in the future!" Mr. Lin has seen the back houses of a rich family before, how easy is that concubine to be
When you meet someone who is powerful in the main room, those who are suppressed don't even have the dignity of a servant.
Mr. Lin was very satisfied with successfully stopping the tearing up between the two daughters-in-law.
