Chapter 318: Crushing Your Plans

u's medicine was really amazing. He treated his wounds with rotting flesh, and Wang Yaner also cleaned them according to Jinxiu's instructions.Zong Hu didn't utter a single groan from beginning to end...As soon as he heard about the household inventory, Old Zong felt a pang of guilt.

How could he possibly expose the food and silver he was hiding to the villagers

Is he going to split his money and food with us now that we know This stuff is his lifeblood right now, more valuable than gold.

He absolutely cannot let Wang the Village Head know how much grain he has on hand.

Old Man Zong hurriedly stopped Village Chief Wang, saying, “You don't need to trouble yourself, Village Chief Wang. No one knows our family's things better than I do. I can tell you all about it now.”

"The house has four rooms, and there are seven or eight plots of farmland totaling twelve mu. There are two sets of chests, cabinets, tables, and chairs in the house."

"It's not easy to settle the accounts for pots and pans. Anyway, there are only three people in Xiaohu and his wife’s family, and they use quite a few pots and bowls. I’ll directly give them one big pot, five large bowls, chopsticks at random, and a kitchen knife as well."

"These small matters are easy to settle," he said, looking at Wang Yan'er. "I know you want farmland. The village has always divided land according to houses. Even though your husband and wife are splitting up today, you both ultimately come from the main branch of the family."

“I will divide the family's land into three parts, and you can only have half of what belongs to the eldest house.”

That is to say, two mu of farmland.

After he finished speaking, he turned his head to look at Village Chief Wang and asked, "Village Chief Wang, am I right"

"That's how it should be divided," said Wang, the village head.

"But," he hadn't finished his sentence before Zong Lao interrupted him.

"Don't say that Grandpa is being harsh on you. Besides these things, I can also agree to let you take everything else from your original rooms."

"Including bedding and such things, these items are impossible to buy now."

Wang Yan'er was stunned. She didn't expect that the old man Zong would give them so many things at the end of his life, which was beyond her expectations.

Fang Jinshu was frowning tightly. This Elder Zong was too crafty, these chests, bedding, these things didn't actually cost much at all.

To survive splitting up, the most important thing is food! As for those two acres of land, it might be hard to use them effectively to grow food in someone else's hands.

Most of the villagers now plant beans and sweet potatoes, which are miscellaneous grains. Rice and wheat, the staple food, cannot be planted at all.

Just because others can't grow crops doesn't mean Fang Jinshiu is incapable. As long as the land is available, she has plenty of ways to help Yan'er sister cultivate a successful harvest.

Just as Fang Jinshu was getting angry, Wang Yan'er almost agreed to Zong Laotou's arrangement.

She hurriedly shouted, "No!"

"Do you think you can just get away with giving Sister Yan a few pieces of trash and two acres of land"

"The division is of all the property. You haven't said how the money and grain in your hands should be divided."

"As for the land, it is divided into good fields, dry land, and wasteland. You need to make it clear where those two acres of land you are giving them come from."

Whenever Fang Jinshu opened her mouth, Old Master Zong would get a splitting headache.

Every time, I could always directly provoke his anger.

"These are hard times now, who in the world has money or grain left Our family doesn't either. We have none."

Hearing this, not only did Fang Jinshi laugh, but all the villagers burst into laughter.

"Old Master Zong, you're such a liar! You didn't even bother to come up with a different excuse. Just the other day, you were on the mountain claiming to have plenty of seeds in your possession and wanting to trade them with the village head for the water source and ten mu of uncultivated land."

"Where did it go today"

“Of course it's obvious! They are just saying no because they don't want to split the family!”

Seeing that the villagers had already shouted out all the words she was about to say, Fang Jinshiu saved herself some saliva.

"Grandpa, you only give land and no food. Don't even mention how Zong Hu is now; even if he was doing well, there's no way his family could magically produce food from the fields to eat in a short time, right"

"If you only give them land and no food, how can they survive"

"This can't be divided like this."

Elder Tong was on the verge of fury, gritting his teeth and snarling, "So how do you propose we divide it"

"What does today's matter have to do with you Stop stirring up trouble here!"

Fan Jinshu giggled and walked to Yan'er Jie's side, showing no fear at all.

"How can this be none of my business Brother Zong Hu and Sister Yan'er have helped us a lot in the past. When they encounter problems, especially unfair ones, I certainly can't just stand by."

"Well, are you afraid I'll speak the truth and ruin your plans"t in the first place."Fang Jinxiu, are you playing me"As Fu Ming, not many people in this world would dare to speak to him like this."Angry Alright, alright, I didn't know Mr. Fu was so kind. It was m...
