Chapter 942: Glory in troubled times 10
An Ning and Xiao Yuan had been struggling for three or four days.
Specifically, it is actually not clear how long it takes. The main reason is that there is no light in prison, and it is really impossible to tell the time.
Anyway, for the people in the Duke of Pingguo Mansion, these days have been really hard, as if they have lived a lifetime.
After these days, the imperial edict was also delivered.
The main reason is that the Duke of Pingguo seized the title and demoted it to a commoner, and the whole family was exiled to the Southern Yi.
After the imperial edict came, the ministers and noble families in the court saw that the Duke of Pingguo was not charged with too much crime and would not be asked about the execution or other things. Some families with good relations with the Duke of Pingguo of Pingguo began to move.
The old relatives and in-laws of the Duke of Pingguo's mansion also began to find ways to let them come out early.
Within two days, the family was released from prison.
When we entered the cell, although the family was in a mess, they were all neat.
But when the family was out of the cell, they couldn't see it anymore.
Not to mention how dirty or smelly the body is, everyone is like losing their shape. They have lost weight these days.
Especially the female family members, they were all like flowers, but now the flowers have withered, and only the branches and leaves are left.
As soon as they came out, the wives from each family continued.
In the big house, the Zhao family sent a butler with a few servants to come and gave them some food, clothing and silver.
The second wife Wei family also gave some money.
The third house was embarrassed. The Liu family did not send anyone here. According to the words of Yushi Liu, the water splashed by the married daughter even caused the mother's family to be implicated.
The children from the third room were still hoping, thinking that they would help their grandfather's family when they came out, but when they saw this situation, the children started to cry first.
The main reason is that Xiao Yuan and An Ning are both sick.
The couple is ill and can't even walk on the road, and they have to rely on people to support them.
Although the Fourth House Hui family gave some things, they only gave fifty taels of silver.
What is this silver enough for?
Not enough travel expenses.
The family of Jin from Wufang sent someone over and didn't give him any money, but he helped find a caravan and asked Wufang to follow the caravan south.
The sixth house Xiao Ling had not married yet, and he was just a bachelor. No one helped him, but he was quiet alone.
Seeing that no one was in charge of the third room, Xiao Ling came over and thought that he was alone, and the third brother was so sick. If the child was not involved, no one would watch him. So he would have a relationship with the third room first, otherwise it would be pitiful.
When Xiao Jue saw this, he went to the old man and said, "Father, please make a decision early."
The old man looked at the old lady's mother's house and gave money, and then looked at the big and second houses with money, and saw that the two houses had smiles on their faces.
Turning his head and seeing the look of three and four bedrooms looking unlucky, he sighed in his heart and called everyone from six bedrooms over.
"Our family has suffered this hardship. Now I have to find a way to survive. I have thought about it. I really can't live a quiet life together, and the burden is heavy. So I want to take this opportunity to divide your family."
"Father."
Xiao Jin was anxious when he heard this: "Father, my third brother is so sick. You are now splitting up your family, you..."
Xiao Ling also looked at the old man in disbelief.
Xiao Su stood up with a smile: "What my father said is that it's better to separate the family. Anyway, our family has confiscated the house and no one has any money. The separation is the best way to split the family. Whose wife's money is the most straightforward."
Xiao Jue also said: "Now we have to think about how to survive. If we get together, it will inevitably be too much of a burden. If we are separated, as long as we have a room to survive, our Xiao family will have hope."
Xiao Jin sneered: "Who are you talking about? Didn't it just that the third brother is so sick that it feels that it has dragged you down?"
"The fourth brother."
The old lady glared at Xiao Jin angrily: "This is your father's decision, and it is also mine. You have to listen to it, and you have to listen to it if you don't."
Xiao Yuan stood firm with difficulty and looked at the old man begging: "Father, now you are splitting your family. Are you forcing your son to die?"
Xiao Ying and his younger brother and sister-in-law also looked at the old man and Xiao Jue with anger on their faces.
Especially Xiao Yin.
She was so angry.
If you don’t mention it sooner or later, you will see that your parents are sick and your grandfather’s family doesn’t give you a penny, so the old man and the big house will split up. Isn’t this just dislike them?
"Boss, give fifty taels of silver to the third brother."
The old man said something lightly.
Xiao Jue felt a pain in pain, but he still took fifty taels of silver bills: "Third brother, this is my intention to be my elder brother. Please take it. Now we don't have much money. I also have to support my father and mother. There is still a family to raise, so I can't give you a lot."
Xiao Jue didn't accept the silver bill, just looked at the old man.
The old man was a little angry: "You can take it with you, buy some medicine with the money, treat the disease first, and then think of other ways."
Xiao Yuan still refused to accept it, but shouted disappointed and heartbrokenly: "Father, do you really want to split up? You really have to ignore your son."
The old man sighed: "I can't control it anymore. I'm old. Our family is like this now. I will rely on a big house in the future. How can I control you?"
The second wife took advantage of the situation: "Yes, third brother, now you are like this, you don't need to raise your father and mother. This is how we are brothers tolerate you, so don't be unsatisfied."
Xiao Yuan's eyes were slightly cold: "That's the case, why not be more straightforward. Father, let's divide the clan, and my son will establish a single clan from then on."
The old man's face pulled down: "Three, don't be ungrateful."
Xiao Jue thinks this is not bad.
"Third brother, do you really think so?"
Xiao Yuan focused on it: "Yes, after dividing the clan, you will not care about whether your son or his family will die or live in the future."
The old man felt that his face was a little uneasy, but Xiao Jue pulled his clothes behind him: "Father, please agree."
"good."
The old man gritted his teeth in anger and called Xiao En, "Take paper and pen, I will write documents with your third uncle."
Xiao Jin also stood up at this time: "Father, please write a document of division with me."
The old man was even more angry. The old man slapped his legs angrily and said, "Writing, writing, writing, and writing, and the five and six bedrooms are also divided, so that they can save them from having bad intentions and make things difficult for us in the future."
Xiao Ling smiled and said, "That's right, then write it, and my son will be with the third brother."
Xiao Fang was unwilling to divide the sect, so he stood on the side of the second house. He mainly thought that the second house was rich: "I will be with my eldest brother and the second brother."
The old man wrote the documents of the branch in a gamble. After writing them, he signed and pressed his handprints in two copies, one for the third master, and one for each room.
The Xiao family directly divided the sect outside the cell of Dali Temple.
Then the big room, the second room and the fifth room took the old man and the old lady away.
There are still carriages waiting for the Zhao family, so I will pick them up to a farm outside the city to recuperate for a few days before leaving.
There are only three and four bedrooms and six bedrooms left here.
Xiao Jin squatted on the ground and felt worried.
The third bedroom has no money for the big one, and the sixth bedroom has no money. The fourth bedroom has fifty taels of silver given by the Hui family. It’s really a drop in the bucket, nothing is enough.
"Let's find an inn to stay in first."
Xiao Jin whispered: "We have to find a doctor to show our third brother and sister-in-law first. We have to take some medicine before leaving."
The imperial edict asked them to leave Beijing in three days from today, and the Xiao family still has three days to rest.
Seeing that Xiao Jin made the decision, Wyeth was worried, but she had always been very affectionate with Xiao Jin and listened to Xiao Jin very much, so she would not refute Xiao Jin at this moment.
However, she was reluctant to take the third bedroom and the sixth one.
After all, this is a burden.
