Chapter 244 Family Property (two more)
The elders of the Gu clan around looked at each other with emotion. They also noticed the scene when the Wang clan pulled Gu Jian's sleeve, and thought: Sure enough, Gu Jianjian split up, but he had to push it on his nephew and niece.
They sighed and shook their heads, somewhat disagreeing.
As an uncle, Gu Jian should treat the children left by his eldest brother so harshly!
Gu Yanfei stroked his sleeves, raised his eyebrows and looked at Gu Jian, with a small smile on his right lips, "Master Hou, let's make it clear, who wants to split up?"
Gu Jian said without saying a word: "It's this Marquis."
"It would have been better if I said that earlier." Gu Yanfei sighed, and Gu Jian vomited a mouthful of old blood stuck in his throat.
Gu Yanfei casually played with a purple silk sash hanging from his ear, looked around at everyone, and said slowly, "It was Lord Hou who wanted to split up the family, and all the clan elders can testify."
Gu Yuan looked at Gu Yanfei quietly, his eyes were unbelievably soft, like the bright sunshine in spring and March.
My younger sister is a kind of casual and wanton temperament. She likes to go straight to the ground. It is for her eldest brother that her younger sister will make such a big circle in a roundabout way...
The division of the Hou residence must be brought up by the uncle, and only in this way will it not fall into the limelight in the future.
Gu Yuan was laughing, but Gu Jian was about to cry, his heart was full of breath, and his mouth was filled with a strong salty smell.
It was obviously Gu Yuan's proposal to split up the family, but now, after just a few words, it has become that he insisted on splitting up the family, and he was the one who oppressed Gu Yuan, the junior, as his uncle.
He couldn't explain it yet.
Gu Jian just stared at Gu Yuan and Gu Yanfei brother and sister with gloomy eyes. After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said to everyone: "Please witness the patriarch and the patriarch, and split the family."
This sentence almost exhausted all his strength, and after he finished speaking, a sense of relief swept through his body.
The hall was silent for a while.
The patriarch stroked his beard again, sighed, and confirmed with Gu Jian again: "Master Hou, have you figured it out?"
"The separation of the family is like overturning the water, and there is no turning back when the bow is opened."
"You share the same roots as Brother Yuan, and everything goes well with your family."
Several clan elders also persuaded a few words, and most of them hoped that Gu Jian would consider carefully.
The separation of the family is of great importance, and if it is spread, it will inevitably make people question the discord between the Houfu family and the house, which will be detrimental to the reputation of the Gu family.
Gu Jian's ears were buzzing at what they said, and while her heart was depressed, she became a little impatient, but she still had a smile on her face, and said a few words "I have made up my mind".
Seeing that one of the clan elders still wanted to persuade him, Gu Jian rushed ahead of the other party and said, "Speaking of which, there is a recent happy event in the family that I haven't had time to tell everyone. wedding."
"At that time, we have to invite all the relatives and relatives of the clan to come to the mansion for a drink."
The elders of all the clans present knew that the ceremony had been made, and when they heard that the wedding date had been set, they couldn't help showing joy.
Their Gu family will soon have a princess princess. For the He family, this is a big happy event!
After chatting with a few close clan elders, he stroked his beard and pondered for a long time. He looked at Gu Yuan and his sisters for a while, and Gu Jian and his wife for a while, and said, "Then let's split up the family."
As soon as these words came out, Gu Jian and the Wang family breathed a sigh of relief.
The patriarch calmed down and said, "Master Hou, there are five rooms in the Hou mansion. Is this time only the long room is divided, or all the other rooms are also divided? Does Master Hou have an opinion?"
Gu Jian had a plan long ago, so he replied yin and yang strangely: "Brother Yuan has an opinion and can hold up the lintel of the long room. I think this time, I will just divide the long room."
"These three families are widows. The fourth younger brother has always been in charge of the household affairs of the Hou residence, and the Hou residence cannot be separated from them. The fifth younger brother is still studying."
While speaking, Gu Jian glanced at Wang's side without a trace, and he and Wang's long ago had discussed that if he went out of the long room alone, no one would say that he could not tolerate his brother's children.
Mrs. Wang pinched her cuff gracefully, her nails dyed with impatiens juice shimmered against the gold ring inlaid with three-color gems, and her tail finger was slightly raised.
Gu Yuan nodded and said, "Yes."
The patriarch glanced at Gu Jian and Gu Yuan, a pair of uncles and nephews who had very different temperaments, and continued: "According to the ancestral system, the one who inherits the title of title is divided into 70% of the property, and the remaining 30% is divided among the other rooms. The progeny accounts for twice as much.”
"Do you have any objections?"
The patriarch was talking about you, but only Gu Yuan asked.
After all, the family was divided according to the ancestral system, the second house would definitely take the lead, and it was the beneficiary, while Gu Yuan only got 12% of the family business, which is really not worth mentioning, and now I will see if Gu Yuan has any objection to this.
Gu Yuan resolutely nodded and said, "Yes."
For Gu Yuan, he split the family not to compete for the property of the Houfu, but to take his younger sister to separate the residence and stay away from the bad people and things in the Houfu.
He is confident that he can build a future by himself and become the support of his sister.
Gu Yuan's expression was unusually calm, and his face was full of arrogance, like wind and frost.
"This Marquis has no objection." Gu Jian also nodded and couldn't help looking at Gu Yanfei.
This girl is not only a troublemaker, but also a thorn.
Gu Jian was 99% sure that it was the girl Gu Yanfei who was provoking Gu Yuan to split up.
From this girl to the eldest prince, it can be seen that her heart is too big, will she be willing to have only so much property in the long house? !
In the next instant, Gu Jian met Gu Yanfei's unusually clear eyes, the girl's brows were picturesque, bright stars seemed to flow in her eyes, and her cherry lips were slightly open.
"A room that inherits the title can inherit 70%?" Gu Yanfei asked generously.
"That's right." The patriarch nodded his head, "Your great-grandfather set this rule. His old man said that if the descendants of this noble family are not good, the family business will become thinner and thinner. industry."
Gu Yanfei's great-grandfather was Gu Yao, the first-generation Marquis of Dingyuan who founded the state with Emperor Taizu.
Such division of family business is not uncommon among noble families, and it is also because most noble families are reluctant to split up, thinking that it is good to enjoy the shade under the big tree.
Another clan elder in his fifties with a round face added kindly: "When your grandfather split up the family, he also split 70%."
"I and your third uncle and fourth uncle each share 10%."
Among the clan elders present, there were also three younger brothers of the old Marquis Gu Xuan, all of whom were the great-uncles of Gu Yuan and Gu Yanfei.
They were also afraid that Changfang felt that such separation was unfair, and they all spoke out to explain.
Gu Jian stared at Gu Yanfei tightly, always feeling that this girl would not stop, so she heard her ask again: "Patriarch, what if my Gu family loses the title?"
The patriarch was startled, sighed and replied: "If the descendants are useless and lose the title, the house that built the lintel will inherit the ancestral property and account for 70% of the family property."
The title of the houfu can be inherited for five generations, and then the title will be downgraded to the eldest, and this title cannot be passed down from generation to generation. Gu Yao also understood this, so he made this rule.
"I see." Gu Yanfei nodded and didn't raise any objections. It seemed that he just asked a question out of curiosity.
The clan chief and the clan elders were relieved to see that the separation process went so smoothly, and exchanged glances with each other.
The family is separated, no matter how they are divided, they are all from the same clan. Even if there is a little disagreement, the Gu family has broken bones and connected tendons, and it is best to separate the family harmoniously.
Gu Jian was even more overjoyed, with a smile on the corners of his eyes and brows, and quickly ordered his servants to bring the account books and family property list from the house.
After two cups of tea, a few servants carried several heavy boxes to the main hall, and opened the lids one by one, exuding a musty smell that had not seen the sun for a long time.
The box is full of large and small account books, two of which are old, with faded covers, yellowed pages, and a lot of dust.
The patriarch and the patriarchs covered their noses with their sleeves and looked at each other, all with headaches.
Their Gu family was originally from the countryside, that is, Dingyuan Hou’s family followed the uprising of Emperor Taizu, and only then did the Gu family become prominent today.
Most of these clan elders have read books for a few years, but they are only at the level of literacy and hyphenation.
So many boxes of account books can’t be sorted out in a few hours, at least I have to ask the accountant to help me with a few days of hard work.
The patriarch took out a handkerchief and wiped his itchy nose. He wanted to carry the account books to the side hall first, but before he could say anything, he suddenly remembered something and asked Gu Jian, "Master Hou, Lingtang Woolen cloth?"
The division of the Hou Mansion was such a big event, and Mrs. Gu Tai was not seen.
The patriarch remembered that Mrs. Gu Tai had been ill for a long time during the Chinese New Year, and asked with concern, "Could it be that she is still ill?"
The smile on Gu Jian's lips suddenly froze. It was only at this moment that he remembered that Mrs. Tai was still kneeling at the Meridian Gate.
Wang's face was also a little unnatural.
Just now, the couple was anxious to separate the family, and they even forgot Mrs. Gu Tai for a while.
Seeing that Gu Jian's expression was a bit strange, the patriarch asked, "Is it possible that Lingtang's condition has worsened again?"
Gu Jian's hand in his sleeve twitched unnaturally, his mind turned fast, while looking at Gu Yuan, he sighed: "Thank you uncle for your concern, my mother has recovered, it's just..."
After a pause, he continued: "Because there was a lot of commotion in the court about Brother Yuan's beheading of Feng He, my mother felt uneasy in her heart and felt that she didn't teach Brother Yuan well, so she went to the palace to plead guilty."
What? ! The patriarch and the clan elders all widened their eyes, and several people subconsciously looked at Gu Yuan who was still not far away with a calm expression.
Zu told Sun, this is a major event about Gu's reputation!
Why didn't Mrs. Gu Tai consult with the clan before entering the palace? !
Seeing the disapproval on the patriarch's face, Gu Jian quickly explained: "Uncle, the eldest brother committed a crime eight years ago, which almost affected the whole family. Like walking on thin ice, my mother has no choice but to..."
Speaking of Gu Ce's past, the patriarch's expression was more complicated.
Gu Ce grew up with him. He was once the pride of the Hou Mansion, but in the end he died young and his reputation was ruined.
Gu Yuan is the son of Gu Ce. This is the karma that he cannot get rid of in his life. He wants to forget it, but no one else can forget it.
The patriarch looked at Gu Yuan with a little unbearable expression in his eyes.
Gu Yuan was still sitting on the armchair, his body was as straight as a mountain ridge, and his body was covered with a chill like ice and snow.
"Since Mrs. Tai is still at the Meridian Gate, let's go and bring Mrs. Tai back." Gu Yanfei said with a smile, her slender fingers casually curled the silk sash of her hair, and the purple silk sash reflected her slender fingers as white as jade. .
"For such a big event as a family split, how can the eldest lady do it!"
