Chapter 452 Negotiation
"Besides, your wife is in such a mess now. If we don't separate the family, how will she survive in this general's mansion in the future? You can't let her sisters-in-law and her younger generations give in to her and avoid her."
"This is a good time and a good excuse. No one will think otherwise. Let's separate the family tomorrow." The old lady originally thought that her grandson was angry and said the words of separation.
But after listening to his words, I knew that he had something to do. Before doing it, he tried his best to protect the people at home.
In an instant, she figured it out.
So I immediately agreed to the separation.
Shan Su now felt embarrassed. He understood that his nephew wanted to divide the family property not because he was angry, but because he was trying his best to protect the people in their second branch.
He wanted to say that they would not separate, and that they would live and die together. But then he thought of his children and his wife. He could no longer say that he would not separate.
Seeing what was in Shan Su's mind, Shan Li sighed.
"Uncle, after the separation, you still have to control Auntie. Auntie's temper can easily offend people. Don't let her bring any more trouble to the Second House. That would be a loss."
"Second Aunt's temper has not changed after so many years. If possible, let her rest in the backyard."
Shan Li's words were very straightforward.
That means that after the second uncle divides the family property, a new mistress will be appointed.
Qi had provoked Ah Ci and made trouble for her three times, which made Shan Li extremely annoyed with her. He couldn't go and make trouble for her directly, as it was against etiquette.
However, it's okay to cause her some trouble at the appropriate time.
When it comes to Qi, Shan Su's already weak energy becomes even weaker.
He was a man of seven feet tall, but he was always criticized because of her. Now he finally understood why people said that it is best to marry a virtuous woman.
"Since we are dividing the family, we need to sort out everything in the house. You can take away everything that belongs to the second house, and you can also clear out everything that you have handed over to the public house over the years. You can take away anything that has not been used, and you can also take away anything that has been used in cash."
The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren have reached a consensus on dividing the property, so the next step is naturally to discuss how to divide it.
Of course the house where the second wife lives cannot be taken away, so it has to be converted into cash or directly into a house.
In the end, Shan Su chose a three-courtyard house that was far away from the current general's mansion.
This was part of the old lady’s dowry, and now it was given directly to Shan Su.
There were also some things left by the old Duke Zhenguo, which were basically divided into two parts, Shan Su took one part and Shan Li accepted the other part on behalf of the eldest wife.
Everything else was easy to discuss and there was no objection to their division, except for Shan Yu's dowry.
The family split originally happened because of this incident. If it is not handled properly, people outside may not easily believe that the General's Mansion will split because of this incident.
"Grandmother, why don't we give Second Aunt the dowry she wants? The mansion originally prepared 64 dowries for her, and our eldest wife will give another 64 dowries, so the total will be 128 dowries for her."
"In this way, Second Aunt will have no reason to stop the division of the family. If the family is not divided, there will be no 128 loads of dowry."
The old lady thought about it for a long time and felt that this was a good idea.
Since we are going to divide the family, we have to do it in a way that everyone can believe.
"That's it. But you don't have to pay for the extra 64 dowries. I have some savings, so I'll pay for it. Yu'er is my granddaughter after all, so it's reasonable for me to pay for it."
In this way, the division of the General's Mansion was a foregone conclusion.
