Zhou Zhiwen was dissatisfied with the division between his father and mother. His younger sister, Zhou Qiongyue, was a married woman, so why should she share in his father's fortune? And why didn't he get a share of his mother's property? He had called Jin "mother" for so many years.

Zhou Zhiwen couldn't care less at this moment. If he didn't fight for it now, it would be too late when things were settled.

"Father, I don't have any objections to anything else, but since my younger sister is already married, wouldn't it be inappropriate for her to come back and share her family's property? She doesn't lack that, what she really lacks is a son!"

Besides, the son is also the mother’s son, and the mother is like this...”

Marquis Cheng'en simply didn't want to talk to his two stupid sons. It turned out that God is fair, and every family has a fool.

He wanted to give it to him, but he was just the son of a private school teacher. It would be useless if he couldn't keep the money no matter how much he gave.

Marquis Cheng'en only smiled and looked at Zhou Zhiwen, "Are you dissatisfied?"

Zhou Zhiwen looked at his father's face and saw that he was smiling, so he nodded affirmatively, "My son refuses to accept."

Marquis Cheng'en is already this old now, and he has even less patience for this stupid son. "If you don't accept it, just hold it in..."

Marquis Cheng'en didn't even bother explaining to his foolish son and simply scolded him. He turned to look at his youngest son, Zhou Zhiqi, who was so happy and foolish. This son had always been well-behaved and had never offended his older brothers or sisters, so he should be able to keep his promise. "If your fourth brother doesn't want your share, then I'll give it to you!"

Zhou Zhiwen didn't expect that not only did he not get what he was supposed to get, but he also lost one copy. He was so angry that he almost fainted.

Even though Zhou Zhiwen's face flushed with anger, no one paid any attention to him. He didn't dare to say anything more. He was not a proud person and didn't want to be kicked out of the house with nothing.

Zhou Zhiwen didn't dare to glare at his father, nor did he dare to cause trouble for Zhou Qiongyue. He could only glare at his half-brother, and threaten Zhou Zhiqi with his eyes not to accept it.

Logically, Zhou Zhiwen should not want this, and the title of Marquis of Cheng'en should be given to Zhou Zhiquan, but Zhou Zhiquan's wife, Yu, has caused a lot of trouble in the mansion over the years.

Because of his daughter-in-law, Marquis Cheng'en also disliked his son.

He was willing to do anything that could make his daughter-in-law, Yu, angry to death. Marquis Cheng'en stroked his beard and thought happily, this might be the joy of being old and confused!

Marquis Cheng'en has been smart all his life, but now that he is old, he wants to be willful.

Zhou Zhiqi was originally immersed in the joy that he was about to have money, but he didn't expect that he would get a windfall.

Zhou Zhiqi immediately knelt down and kowtowed, his voice filled with sincerity and joy, "Thank you, father, thank you, brothers and sisters, especially thank you, fourth brother."

Zhou Zhiyi and Zhou Zhiquan really don't lack this. Their father and mother have given them a lot of property in private over the years. The division of the family property is only dividing the visible parts.

If the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion really only relied on these superficial things to support it, it would be impossible for it to operate.

Zhou Qiongyue was even less short of this, but if her parents wanted to give it to her, she would not refuse. Zhou Qiongyue felt that this was the love her parents had for her.

So, Zhou Zhiyi and his two siblings all smiled at their half-brother. Only Zhou Zhiwen, on the verge of death from anger, could only resist with silence.

Zhou Zhiyi was quite nice to this obedient younger brother. He personally stepped forward to help Zhou Zhiqi up, "Hurry up! Your fourth brother is so happy."

Zhou Zhiyi looked at Zhou Zhiwen with a terrifyingly gentle gaze. What kind of bastard was he? How dare he covet his mother's dowry? Neither he nor his fifth brother coveted his mother's dowry. When did it become the turn of this bastard to make decisions?

Zhou Zhiyi rubbed the ring on his thumb, wondering when he could quietly set a trap for his younger brother. People always have to suffer a little to become sensible. If you remain sensible, you will continue to suffer!

As the eldest brother, he has to bear the brunt of the burden and always take care of his younger brothers.

Zhou Zhiyi: Oh, he is such a good brother.

Zhou Zhiwen was so overjoyed that he wanted to make a scene. Suddenly, he felt a chill on his back. He looked around nervously and saw that no one in the ancestral hall paid any attention to him.

He finally gave up on making a fuss and decided to go cry to his father in private.

Marquis Cheng'en had gotten up early in the morning for today's division. He was a little tired now and just wanted to get the division done quickly. "Since you all have no objections, just sign and stamp!"

The children then stepped forward and signed their names, affixing their personal seals. Finally, everyone present signed as witnesses.

"Now that everything has been signed, Zhou Zhiquan, Zhou Zhiwen, and Zhou Zhiqi, the three of you must move out of the Cheng'en Marquis Mansion within two days.

Don’t tell me that you don’t have a house. This time when the family was divided, I have given you each a house. I have sent people to clean them up, and you can live in them at any time.

If you haven't moved out in two days, don't blame me for being heartless. I'll have you kicked out. You won't be able to take anything from your yard with you."

After saying this, Marquis Cheng'en didn't care about the three people's reactions. He personally wrote the words "separation" on the family tree and sincerely burned incense to his ancestors. Only then was the separation of the family considered to be truly settled.

Zhou Zhiyi noticed the fatigue in his father's eyes and brows, and immediately led the elders to the front yard.

Lunch has been set up in the front yard. Since these elders have come in large numbers today, they must entertain them well and communicate with them.

As soon as these people left, Zhou Qiongyue immediately went forward to support her old father, but Marquis Cheng'en waved his hand at his daughter, indicating that she didn't need to support him.

Marquis Cheng'en felt that his daughter was not young anymore, and sometimes when she got sick, her condition was even more serious than his own. He was reluctant to let his daughter support him.

"Father is fine. Just let your seventh brother Zhou Zhiqi support me. You just need to stay by my side and talk to me."

Zhou Zhiqi, who was standing next to him, immediately stepped forward to take over Zhou Qiongyue's position after hearing this. "Sister, just leave this little thing to your brother."

Seeing her father rushing to divide the family property, Zhou Qiongyue was extremely worried about his health. "Dad, how are you? Do you want to go back to the backyard and get some sleep?"

Marquis Cheng'en looked at his worried daughter and sighed inwardly, "Dad is fine. Just sit with me in the pavilion by the lake for a while."

Zhou Qiongyue had no choice but to say, "Okay, your daughter will accompany you."

Zhou Zhiqi acted as a human crutch throughout the whole process. He didn't say anything and supported his old father as they walked towards the pavilion.

As soon as they arrived at their destination, Marquis Cheng'en immediately said, "Qi'er, go wait outside the pavilion! Your father will have a word with your sister!"

Zhou Zhiqi quickly agreed and swiftly retreated outside the pavilion. He even walked a little further away, until he was at a place where he could see his father and sister but could not hear what his sister was saying to his father, and then he stopped.
