Duzhuang.

Wang Peng and Li Fang stood at the village entrance waiting for someone.

If the younger ones are beaten, it will attract the older ones, and the Wang family will definitely cause trouble.

It was getting dark when Wang Song arrived on the old bicycle he had borrowed.

He stopped his bicycle and began to interrogate Wang Peng.

"Your brother asked you for money, and you refused, but why did you slap him in the face?"

"You didn't slap his face, you slapped mine. You really think you're all grown up now and can leave me to fly solo?"

"Do you still want to enter the Wang family's gate?"

Wang Peng told his cousin to wait to the side, then looked up to face Wang Song directly.

"I hit him because he doesn't speak human language."

"You're not air; I can live without anyone."

"Your Wang family's threshold is too high, I don't want to come in."

Wang Peng countered sharply.

"You unfilial son!" Wang Song gritted his teeth in anger. "You make so much money selling watermelons, what's wrong with giving your brother five hundred yuan for tuition? Tell me!"

Wang Peng shook his head, and hearing the "taken-for-granted" tone, he couldn't help but get really angry.

"I would get up before dawn and pull the watermelons for more than 500 jin (250 kg) on ​​a cart while I was hungry."

“In the beginning, I had nowhere to live, so I slept in the wilderness. Can you understand that kind of suffering?”

"Even now, my shoulders and back still hurt from time to time."

"Why should I support Wang Cheng with the money I earned with my life?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Song was so angry that he jumped up and down.

"Because you are his older brother."

"As the eldest brother, I have to relieve my parents' worries and support my younger siblings."

"Don't you even know the principle that the eldest brother is like a father?"

"You were the top scorer in the high school entrance exam, but I think you've wasted all your education."

Li Fang, who was more than ten meters away, couldn't stand it anymore. She gritted her teeth and ran over, standing firmly beside her cousin.

"Uncle, you forced Peng to hand over his college admission letter, trampling on his future. Is this what you mean by 'elder brother is like father'?"

“This is a matter for our Wang family, and it’s none of your business as an outsider,” Wang Song said angrily, pointing at Li Fang.

Then he angrily pointed at Wang Peng, saying, "If you dare to hit your brother today, you'll dare to hit your father tomorrow. This isn't over."

"Sister Fang, go wait for me over there." Wang Peng pushed her away. "I'll handle it, it'll be alright."

Li Fang felt sorry for her cousin, reached out to give him a hug, glared at Wang Song, and then turned and walked ten meters away.

"Wang Peng, there's something wrong with your brain."

"If you give five hundred yuan to help your younger brother go to school, won't he appreciate it in the future?"

"Your mother and I remember all the contributions you've made to the family, and we will definitely not treat you badly in the future."

Wang Song forced himself to calm down, as his main goal today was to get money, not to argue.

Wang Peng knew his true purpose and was about to refuse, but then he shut his mouth.

Since we already know their true colors, why should we still have hope?

Forget it, forget it. I might as well take this opportunity to completely sever ties with them.

Thinking of this, he stared intently at Wang Song.

"You want five hundred dollars? I can give you that."

"The condition is to sever ties. You let me start my own household, I'll be independent from your household registration, and you don't have to bother me anymore."

Upon hearing this, Wang Song was completely stunned, his mind going blank.

He always thought that Wang Peng's running away from home was just a childish tantrum, and that he would come home and beg for forgiveness once he calmed down.

How can a minor be separated from their parents?

Only now did he realize that Wang Peng was serious and determined to sever ties with the Wang family.

He stared at Wang Peng, unable to believe it was real.

A few minutes later, the shock turned into anger.

"Fine! Since you're so stubborn, I'll grant your wish."

"Remember this: it's easy to leave my household registration, but if you regret it later and want to come back in, it won't be so easy."

Wang Song still firmly believed that one day, his unfilial son would kneel before him and beg for mercy.

Wang Peng didn't know where his confidence came from.

He sneered, "Go and complete the formalities. Once I see my household registration book, I'll give you five hundred yuan."

Having said all that, there was no point in saying more, so Wang Song turned around and went to push his bicycle.

"Come here tomorrow morning and wait. I'll process your household registration tomorrow. I need to clean up the front door."

...

When Wang Song returned home, he took the household registration book to the home of Wang Peng's uncle, Wang Huai.

Wang Huai, the deputy village head of Wang Village, immediately started cursing Wang Peng after hearing Wang Song's account of the whole story.

"Just because you have a little money in your hands, you think you're all grown up? You think you can fly solo?"

"Hmph, second brother, don't take him seriously. He'll regret it someday."

“Let’s go, I’ll be your witness.”

Wang Huai brought Wang Song to the village committee and, according to Wang Song's wishes, drafted an agreement to sever ties.

He thought to himself, "Given your despicable behavior of sucking the marrow out of your bones, if I were Wang Peng, I would have broken off all ties with you long ago. The fact that Wang Peng has tolerated this long only shows that he is kind-hearted."

Then, he took Wang Song to the village party secretary and the village head to ask for an explanation.

The village party secretary was completely dumbfounded, thinking to himself, "Is there really such a good thing?"

The bloodsucking leeches of the Wang family actually took pity on Dapengzi and were willing to sever ties with him.

“I have to help Dapeng; he’s a pitiful child.”

So, while pretending to scold Wang Peng for being unfilial, he quickly issued a statement and affixed the village committee's official seal.

The four of them met at the village committee early the next morning.

While scolding Wang Peng for being ignorant, the village chief started the farm tricycle and took them to Duzhuang to find Wang Peng.

The fact that the three officials were all outwardly defending Wang Song gave him the confidence to sever ties with them.
