After a day of work, Li Daquan came home and found that dinner was not ready yet, so he was in a very bad mood.

Zhang Guilan went out to buy groceries and came back a little late.

Seeing Li Daquan coming back, he said, "I'll go cook first, and I'll talk to you about something later."

Li Daquan lit up his pipe and said, "What's the matter? Tell me now."

Zhang Guilan paused and said in a low voice, "Well...well, Xinxin owes someone one thousand yuan, and the debt collector came to him today and said that if he doesn't pay back the money in three days, he will bear the consequences."

“Bang~!”

After hearing this, Li Daquan smashed the cup in his hand.

"How come this beast owes so much money!"

"One thousand dollars, what on earth did he do!"

Listening to the man's roar, Zhang Guilan weakly replied: "Gambling!"

"Bang!"

There was another loud bang, and the stools in the living room were smashed to pieces.

Li Daquan was so angry that he was shaking all over.

"Gambling, he actually went to gamble, doesn't he know that gambling can make people lose everything?"

"How dare he!"

"This beast should just die!"

Li Daquan was so angry that he was about to die. He was still trying to find a way to pay for the hospital fees.

Now it's another huge sum of money, he is really going to be mad.

Zhang Guilan was afraid that he would get angry and cause harm, so she came over and patted him on the back and said, "Don't be angry, don't make yourself sick."

"There is always a way."

Li Daquan laughed angrily: "What can I do? That's one thousand yuan!"

"Do you think a thousand dollars came from the wind?"

"The reason why my daughter broke off relations with us was because of her sister-in-law."

"Do you think Li Qing can give you this money?"

"Don't even think about it. We were already unhappy with each other. Even if I go to her for the money, she won't give it to me."

Zhang Guilan: "How can I know if I don't ask? After all, he is my son. I don't believe she would ignore her own brother."

"Heh... You might as well go to your eldest son instead of him. Didn't you give him a lot of money before? Let him take it out first."

"We can't have the debt collectors come to our door. If the neighbors find out, we won't be able to live here anymore."

He had never been so miserable in his entire life.

Neither of his two sons is as worry-free as his daughters, but Li Qing happens to be a daughter. If it were a son, he would not be so ruthless.

Zhang Guilan heard this and replied unconfidently: "I think the money will never come out. Li Peng listens to his wife the most."

"You know his wife, unless you ask her."

Li Daquan's face darkened. "Weren't you quite happy when you gave me the money?"

"Now I know I have no money when I need it."

"I will take care of the family money from now on. Don't worry about it. If you keep going like this, we will both beg for food when we are old."

"Also, your mother borrowed 500 yuan last time. Go and ask for it back. Otherwise, don't come back."

Zhang Guilan felt a little guilty because the money was for her nephew's wedding.

Asking for it now would be a slap in her face.

"I.....may not have it there..."

"No?"

"Don't come back without you. Things are urgent now, and you are still thinking about your family."

"Your youngest son is about to die, and you still want to save face."

"Anyway, if I can't raise a thousand dollars, I'll just sell the house."

"Then you will live in the small bungalow with me."

Zhang Guilan was shocked when she heard this.

"Don't you have any private money?"

Li Daquan said, "Don't I have to socialize? Is my position better than being promoted for nothing?"

"I don't need to pay to smoke and drink?"

"If I knew you were such a good steward, I wouldn't have given you the money."

"Okay, go cook first. I'll go get the money tomorrow. I'll try to borrow some first."

Now that things have come to this, there is no point in getting angry.

We can only find a way to get through this first.

Seeing that he said so, Zhang Guilan had no choice but to go and make dinner.

Li Peng and his wife didn't know that their brother was in debt. They were eating outside at the moment.

Seeing him in a daze, Yang Miao asked, "What are you thinking about?"

Li Peng came back to his senses and said, "I was thinking that my brother is useless. Would it be a bad idea for us to separate the family now?"

"No matter what, my parents raised me so much, so much is a bit hurtful."

After hearing this, Yang Miao said, "I didn't say I don't care about your parents, but your brother is in this state now, and I don't know how much money he will have to spend in the future."

"Let's split up first and get our own things. When your parents get old, we'll take care of them."

"I don't care about your brother."

Li Peng sighed, "I know what you mean, but I'm afraid my parents don't think so."

"Li Xin is the same. He is always out teasing people. I don't know who he offended this time. The other party was too cruel."

"I went to the hospital and the doctor said it was a comminuted fracture and I would have to spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair."

Yang Miao sneered, "Your brother deserved to be beaten to death. He sold his good job because it was too tiring and just idled around all day."

"Over the years, your mother has no idea how much money she has spent on him."

"You are the eldest son in the family, so the house will only be given to you. Your younger brother won't even be able to provide for your parents in their old age. You don't even know how he will live in the future."

"Anyway, when we get back later, this family must be divided."

"We both have some savings now, and I'm thinking that with a few hundred dollars more we can buy a yard."

"I don't want to have to look at your brother's face all day long."

She had finally managed to drive her sister-in-law away, and now she had a disabled brother. She was really pissed off.

If I hadn't liked Li Peng at the beginning, I would never have married him.

Her mother was right. Things only belong to you when you hold them in your hands.

Afterwards, after they finished dinner and returned home, they brought up the matter of separation again.

Li Daquan was furious when he saw that his eldest son didn't know anything.

"Your brother is in this state now, and you are making a fuss about dividing the family property. Isn't that a bit too much?"

Yang Miao said: "Dad, we are not overdoing it. Li Peng and I are planning to have a child. You have seen Li Xin's current condition."

"I'm afraid if I continue to live at home, my child might be scared to death by him one day."

"Doesn't father want to have a grandson sooner?"

"Besides, Li Peng is the eldest son. You will definitely live with us in your old age. The separation now is just to make life better for each of you."

Li Daquan listened to his daughter-in-law's words and thought about his future retirement life.

I definitely can't rely on my younger son anymore, and my daughter has cut off ties with me. So the only one I can rely on in the future is my eldest son.

Then he sighed and said, "It's fine to split up the family, but we don't have any money to give you. We can't even pay for your brother's medical expenses, and we still have foreign debts to pay off. We're living in the house now, and you two can take the rest!"
