Chapter 48 Reactions from Each Room

If this matter continues to escalate, there is a possibility that the family will split up.

"You're the kind of person who falls asleep the moment you lie down, why aren't you asleep yet today?"

"Shuyun, do you think that if Jiang Qi's divorce becomes a big deal, is it possible for the family to split up?"

"Separate the family? You want to separate the family?"

Jiang Shuyun hadn't thought about separating the family. One reason was that family inheritance was prevalent in ancient times, and the family would not separate while the parents were alive. Another reason was that this was his first time experiencing life in such a large family, and he found it quite novel.

I was thinking of separating the household because I felt that would reduce housework and make things easier in the future.

"Yes, I want to separate from the family. I'm not used to living in such a big family, and I find it very annoying."

"That's true. We used to live our own lives behind closed doors, and hardly anyone would come over all year round. At first, it felt novel, but after a while, I probably wouldn't be able to stand it. It's very inconvenient, especially when the place we live is crowded."

However, separating the family won't be easy. Even if they do separate, the parents will still live with the eldest son, which won't solve the problem. After Jiang Qi's divorce and return, he will live with his parents and older brother.

Jiang Shuyun felt there was no hope. If they separated, her parents couldn't possibly live alone. Even if they did, there was still Jiang Lan, who was also their child. It was unlikely that they would abandon either of them.

"I can't take it anymore, I'm so sleepy I can't keep my eyes open, my brain has stopped working. I'll go to sleep first and deal with it tomorrow, this isn't something that can be easily solved."

Mu Yi'an's eyes started to water; she was so sleepy.

"Go to sleep, I'm tired too. I'll think about it again tomorrow and see if there's a solution."

The two closed their eyes and fell asleep in no time.
