"Brother, you're back. Grandma is looking for you."

When Huo Xiao saw Huo Jue walk in from the house, he quickly chased after him and asked, "Do you want to go see her?"

Huo Jue paused, his eyes fixed on Huo Xiao. After thinking for a moment, he decided to walk out. "Okay, I understand."

It was pitch black in Mrs. Huo's room. When Huo Jue walked into the room, he reached out and opened the curtains.

His eyes fell on the old lady. Before Huo Jue could open his mouth to speak, he heard the old lady's aged voice say, "You are finally willing to come back to see me now."

There was a hint of coldness in Huo Jue's eyes. He just stood there and did not choose to move forward.

Old Madam Huo's gaze fell on Huo Jue. She wanted to say something, but found that the last words she uttered were only doubtful: "Huo Jue, do you really want to split up the family?"

Huo Jue's gaze fell calmly on the old lady: "Grandma, since you have already asked this question, I can also tell you with certainty that I do have this plan."

Old Mrs. Huo was furious but couldn't control Huo Jue. She looked at Huo Jue with burning eyes and wanted to say something, but found that she couldn't utter a word.

"After the division, a wall will be built between these houses, and then I will live in a separate house with you."

Old Madam Huo suppressed her anger and looked at Huo Jue carefully, saying, "I admit that I didn't do well in this matter, but you can't use these things to threaten me. If we really split up the family, how will Huo Xiao and I live?"

"Grandma, Huo Xiao is not a child anymore. It's time for him to stand on his own feet."

"You know, I had already shouldered the burden of the family when he was his age. What's more, he is staying at home instead of going to school. Isn't this also good news?"

"He can learn how to grow crops well."

Old Madam Huo stared at Huo Jue with a gloomy expression. She was filled with unprecedented rage. Looking at Huo Jue, she could only point a trembling finger at the door and said, "Get out! Get out!"

He paused and looked at Old Mrs. Huo's face. There were many things that were difficult to say at this moment.

Huo Jue turned and walked out of the house.

Huo Xiao had been standing at the door, and he had indeed heard the sounds in the room before.

"Brother, do you really want me to beg for food in the fields like you?"

Huo Xiao clenched his hands into fists at his sides. He opened his mouth, but found that his anger was so strong that he couldn't keep his composure. "My school says that my grades are among the best. If I really work hard, I can get into university."

"Brother, are you really unwilling to give me a chance to go to school?"

Huo Xiao stared at Huo Jue intently, his hands clenched into fists at his sides. Facing Huo Jue at this moment, the anger in his heart became even more irritable: "Brother, I'm begging you, can't you just hold on a little longer?"

Huo Jue would never have done such things originally, but now whenever he thought about the troubles caused by his younger brother, he could no longer remain rational.

"Huo Xiao, you're not young anymore. You can't let me bear the pressure all the time, right?"

There was calmness in his serious voice. After hearing this, Huo Xiao looked at his brother and asked, "So, when does the captain plan to come over to divide the family?"

"It should be in the next few days."

As Huo Jue spoke, his eyes fell on him: "Ah Xiao, there is something else I need to explain to you clearly."

Huo Xiao's eyes were filled with concern. Huo Jue continued, "There are three houses in the house. I will take one of them. You and grandma will have one house and one kitchen. I will build a wall in the middle to separate us."

Huo Jue's gaze fell on Huo Xiao: "Can you understand what I'm saying?"

Huo Xiao forced out a cold smile: "Brother, you have arranged everything so well, what else can I say? In that case, then let's do as you say."

Huo Jue looked at his brother desperately, his eyes filled with disbelief. "Brother, how could you become like this?" Huo Xiao grabbed his wrist.

He felt wronged and helpless. Huo Jue frowned and said, "No matter what I become, it won't change your determination to take responsibility."

Huo Jue shook off his hand and left home.

Huo Xiao had a terrible headache. When he walked into the room and looked at his grandmother lying on the bed, he could only force a smile and said, "Grandma, this is my fault."

Old Mrs. Huo shook her head and waved to her grandson: "Ah Xiao, this is not your fault, nor is it your brother's fault."

She was worried and concerned. Looking at Huo Xiao, she felt guilty. "To be frank, I didn't understand the division of labor. I've been letting your brother shoulder things he shouldn't have."

Huo Xiao also looked up at the old lady at this time.

"Your brother has indeed shouldered a burden that he couldn't bear at your age. Although I am angry that your brother needs to divide the family, I can't refute what he said."

"Grandma, do you think I should also take responsibility?"

Huo Xiao's eyes were filled with surprise. Anger was rising in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. "I also know that big brother has sacrificed too much for this family. I admit that I do need to shoulder the responsibility. Grandma, I don't blame you."

Old Mrs. Huo's heart trembled. She looked at her grandson and choked up, saying at this moment: "I know you are a good student, but now you can't even fill your stomach. What's the point of studying? You really have to bear the pressure."

"Grandma, I understand."

Huo Xiao forced a wry smile and glanced at Old Mrs. Huo: "Please stop talking."

After the old lady's voice fell, Huo Xiao did indeed force out a helpless smile: "Since you said so, do I really have to ask my brother to help me? I know what I'm doing."

"It's just that my brother has drawn a line between us. Do we really need to do what he says?"

Mrs. Huo was silent for a moment, then looked at Huo Xiao and said, "Good boy, I will try to persuade your brother about this matter. Since we are planning to split up the family, there is really no need to start doing some unnecessary things again."

Huo Xiao's heart moved. He thought that the old lady's words might be able to prevent his brother from having to continue building the wall.

As long as he doesn't bother building the wall, he can go and talk it out with his brother.
