Cut off contact with them as soon as possible. Even if she dies of old age, the most you can send her is two wreaths and two pieces of white cloth.

Lu Shiwei disagreed. Deng Xiu'e knew that Lu Fengnian was powerful and it would be difficult for her to take advantage of him. She had no dowry and no spare money, so if she got sick she would have no money to see a doctor.

Even if we have to break up, it's better to take it than to keep receiving alimony. She doesn't have many years left to live anyway.

Deng Xiu'e agreed. Lu Fengnian did not even attend class and invited comrades from the street office to his home to serve as witnesses.

He also revealed that Deng Xiu'e was not his biological mother, and that the house was left to him by his grandfather and had nothing to do with his two half-brothers.

The comrades from the street office initially advised them to discuss things and live a good life without quarreling or making a fuss. However, Deng Xiu'e said that she could not live like this anymore and she just wanted alimony and to move out of the courtyard as soon as possible.

Lu Fengnian was also willing to pay money to buy out this family relationship, so the street office had no choice but to invite Lu Fengyu and Lu Fenghua over as well.

The two brothers were afraid that what they said would affect their work, so they didn't dare to make a fuss. Lu Fengnian spent three hundred yuan to break off the engagement.

The comrade from the subdistrict office said, "Comrade Lu, even if you are no longer related, you should still send the old lady off to a hundred years old. After all, she raised you for so many years."

"Yeah, if my aunt really passes away, I will send her off for the funeral."

Su Yan held back her laughter. Does her father-in-law want to send my aunt away now?

Witnessed by comrades from the subdistrict office, Lu Fengnian happily wrote a letter of severance of relations and asked his brothers and sisters to sign it. In order to avoid future troubles, he even spent money to publish an advertisement in the newspaper to sever the relations.

As soon as the old lady left, Lu Ting returned the deposit certificate to his father. Lu Fengnian took the deposit certificate and took Hua Min to the newspaper office.

While his brothers were out, Lu Ting took Su Yan to the persimmon tree to dig up the treasures left by his grandfather.

No one expected that grandpa buried two large jars under the persimmon tree, and the jars contained either silver dollars or large and small yellow croakers.

"Lu Ting, are you going to return these things to Dad?"

"No need. Grandpa said we should keep it for ourselves. Didn't Dad still make eight or nine hundred yuan? Yanyan, let's go to the department store to pick out a sewing machine later."
