Yang Haiyan originally thought Qin Daya would resembled her mother, but she actually quite different. She's relatively quite. When Qin Daya was born, she had a brother who are several years older than her. He was there to support her, to help her if she was bullied or hungry and so, under his care, she developed a quite personality.
Qin Daya's husband is second child in the family. Although the second child is most likely to be ignored, the parents of that family are quite kind, so Qin Daya's life was good after she got married, almost the same as at home.
After they meet, Yang Haiyan face Qin Daya face Qin Daya silver hairpin, which was considered as s gift from the elder sister in law to the younger sister in law. Qin Daya accepted it shyly. If it were not for Qin's mother suggestion, she would dare not have to accept it.
Soon, it was noon.
During dinner, the Qin family members who had gone to the fields returned. Grandpa Qin looked at the family and was delighted by their large number. He was proud that he could have the Qin Family have so many children and grandchildren in his lifetime.
Grandpa Qin put down his horse, washed his hands in the yard and then said: "Boss,Ah Fang.. come in".
The two people whose name were called looked at each other, not knowing what there is man suddenly wanted to tell them, not knowing what the old man suddenly wanted to tell them, but they still followed three old man into the house.
Second Aunt Qin followed them with her eyes, wanting to go in and take a looked, but when she saw grandma Qin moving a small chair and sitting at the door, she retreated into her place again.
Yang Haiyan walked to Qin's mother. Not only was Aunt Qin curious, but she was also curious.
Mother Qin has some ideas in her mind.
Inside the room, Grandpa Qin said, "Please sit down".
Qin's Father head always been afraid to disobeyed his father'ss words, but there was a limit to this. However, his respect for his father was ingrained in him, so when Qin's father asked him to sit down, her was a little hesitant. But Qin Fang did so.
If it were Qin Fang before his military service, he certainly would have dared. But after five years in there military, while he still respected his grandfather, the awed her felt was gone. After all, her head walked down from the corpse of the enemy and his murderous aura and momentum were even stronger than the old man's.
Grandpa Qin glanced at Father Qin and said with some disdain: "You are not as good as your son".
Qin Fang naturally pretended not to hear.
Qin's father said with a smile: " My son is more promising than me, which is a good thing." It means that his son is good and he was very happy ".
Grandpa Qin cursed; " What promising young man". Then her directly stated the purpose of calling them today. " I called you in today for two main things to say. The first thing is about Ah Fang becoming an official. Grandpa ideas very happy that our Qin family has a promising grandson." He was really happy. Although her knew that his eldest grandson had risked his life to get his official position, it was also an honor.
Qin Fang said calmly: " Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa."
Grandpa Qin continued: " You don't have to be modest. Although I'm very happy that you've been an official, this matter should kept between us. Your grandmother , me, your mother, your father and your wife are the only ones who know this matter. I don't plan to make this in public".
Qin Fang was a little surprised and Qin'ss father didn't understand either.
Grandpa Qin said, " Your grandmother and i discussed it last night. Now that you've been become an official, we're afraid that our family members will become emboldend and do something to harm you. So we'll just keep quite and let them lived the same way they did before."
Grandpa Qin was sensible man. There were shook many people taking scene of others' power these days. If relatives took advantage of Qin Fang's reputation to do something bad, they wouldn't know and wouldn't be able to prevent it.
Qin's father didn't say anything. This was his son's business. His son has grown up and didn't need him to make the decision. So he's looked at Qin Fang and Qin Fang said: " Listen to grandpa".
Grandpa Qin nodded. " The second thing is about dividing the family. Logically speaking, now that you've became an official, dividing the family is the best thing for you and the family. After the separation, your problems will not affect the family. So your grandmother and i discussed it and decided to separate the family ".
Father Qin opened his wife eyes in surprise: "Father.."
Although Qin Fang has heard Mother Qin say this before, he was still a little surprised to her grandpa Qin say this and to see three family split up so easily.
Grandpa Qin looked at them and smiled: " My grandson,I believed that even if the family is divided, you will help the second and third branches if they need you, right?"
Qin Fang: " Of course… I will".
Granola Qin: " So, why do we have to split up and drag you along? According to common sense, after the split, your grandmother and I should follow the eldest wife. But the world is vast and your future life may not be limited here. Your grandmother and I are getting older and will not follow the eldest wife. So, from now on, we will still be here".
Qin's Father immediately said: " Father, the child'ss mother and I will not leave either. If you don't follow the main family, how can your son live?"
Quinn Fang thought for a moment and said: " Grandpa, you and grandma will naturally follow the eldest branch. But as my father said, I'm at the border right now and it's impossible for my father and mother to come over. If there are any changes in the future, that's the master for the future. So, after the family split up, you will stay with us and when there are any changes, we can solve that problem at that time."
Grandpa Qin pondered for a moment and decided it was fine. It was a matter of the family after all. " Okay. Next, let's divide some of the family's belongings into the four parts. One for each of you three brothers and one for us two. We'll be living with the eldest son and the produce land will be shared with him. So, we won't have the second and third sons support us in old age. When we get sick and need to see doctor, the medical expenses will be split you three brothers."
Qin Fang thought for a moment and said," No, since grandparents living with us, second and third uncles don't have to bear any responsibility." After all, second and third uncles didn't have any money. He felt bad that they that they had separated three family property without telling him about his official duties, but he didn't refused. Everyone has selfish motives.
Furthermore, if grandpa and grandma's medical expenses were large enough to require his second and third uncles to shoulder there burden, then even that amount wouldn't afford for them. On the other hand, it it was small amount, he could still afford it.
Grandpa looked at Qin Fang and saw that he was very determined. He then looked at Qin Fang's father and asked , "What do you think?"
Qin's father didn't care what he thought. He naturally followed his son's lead: " Listen to Ah fang".
Grandpa Qin nodded: " Okay . There is one more thing, about the adoption of the third son of the family."
Qin's father was stunned at first, then frankly said, " I…. I don't want to be adopt."
After all, it was his son. Brothers are important than his own son? . "I only have three son and it's so dangerous for Ah Fang to stay in the military camp. I…" If anything happened to his eldest son, he would only have two sons. Even if he had three sons, there was no guarantee that they would give him grandchildren.
Both sides are sons. In this matter, Grand Qin really can't force three eldest son to be adopted.
Qin Fang said: "Grandpa, Sanya can find a son in law. The adopted boy is not your uncle biological son anyway, how great closed as Sanya's own child? As said, there are also families without a son in the village who found son in law. Besides, ifSanya sounds son in law, we are at home, so we don't have to worry about Sanya being bullied.Of course, if uncle doesn't want Sanya to find son in law,I who I'll take care of them in their old age".
He is his biological uncle and uncles without son are takes care of by nephew in their old age. This is the same in every household .
However, it also depends on whether the nephew is willing to support him in old age.
Grandpa Qin didn't say anything after hearing this: "Let's go to eat".
After Qin Fang and Qin's father left, everyone's attention was focus on them.
Grandpa Qin: "Eat".
Father Qin and Qin Fang originally wanted to about this matter with their wives, but Grandpa Qin called them to eat, so they had to put it aside.
Because of the unpleasantness at lunch yesterday, Aunt Qin was more restrained during lunch today and the meal was quite harmonious. Faster dinner, Grandpa Qin said: " I have something to tell all of you. I just called in eldest brother and Afang to discuss the matter. Now, I'm telling you what you think. Don't think I'm biased. I called three eldest son and Afang in advance because they are the one will suffer in these matter."
Aunt Qin: " Dad, what are you talking about?"
Uncle Qin and others also looked at Grandpa Qin.
Grandpa Qin didn't keep anyone suspense and said directly: " I plan to divide the family".
Grandma Qin's face was calm, because she and the old man head discussed this yesterday.
Uncle Qin: " Father, why do we want to divide the family?"
Second Aunt Qin's eyes flickered. She agreed to divide the family. The eldest wife had many children. Although they also worked, they also had to eat more.
Uncle Qin thought that he was an extinct family and had no son, so he didn't want to split the family. If he didn't split up three family, he would be with everyone else and not be considered an extinct family. But if he split up three family, he would be an independent family, which would mean he would be extinct.. wouldn't it?
Grandpa Qin: " I will ask each household one by one. 'Eldest son, do you agree to split up the family? If not, tell me why? And we will solve it one by one"
Father Qin: " I agree."
Grandpa Qin nodded and asked Uncle Qin: " Second son, do you agree to divide the family?"
Uncle Qin didn't have any thoughts: " I'll listen to my father".
Aunt Qin punched hugs wait hard. Uncle Qin gasped in pained.
Grandpa Qin said: " Just tell me directly whether you agree or not disagree with the division. If you disagree, explained why".
Aunt Qin didn't wait for uncle Qin this time. She spoke on her own: "Dad, we agree to split i up, but I have question".
Grandpa Qin: " You say.."
Aunt Qin chuckled and smiled: "After three family division, our Erya doesn't have to hand over the money she earned from embroidering handkerchief to the public.. right?"
Because it was the public money that paid for the girl to learn, so she wanted to know.
Third Aunt Qin ears twitched. She has always known her second sister in law to be not very smart, but she has never expected that she would think of this.
Grandpa Qin: " After the division, the money you earn will be yours. Otherwise, what's the point of division? So now, second son, do you agree? Don't let your wife say it, say it yourself."
Second uncle Qin: " I agree".
Grandpa Qin looked at his third son: " Third son, Do you agree?"
