After going to several places in the town, Cao Xiangnan has become a regular customer in some shops. The shopkeepers of several shops are not unfamiliar with him and greet each other in a familiar manner. They bought what they wanted to buy and reserved what they wanted to reserve. They loaded a lot of things on the carriage and took them back.

On the way back, they asked the blind Li Banxian to go to Caojia Village and take people to see the land where the academy was to be built, and to set the date for building the academy. The nearest date is the end of this month, which happens to be the end of the month. By that time, his factory building can be built, and once the work of Master Feng is slowed down, work can start here.

When Cao Gang sent Li Banxian back to the town, he took the wine to the shopkeeper Liu.

"Husband, my father sent someone to visit." Qi Wanfeng told his husband about what happened in the compound.

After hearing what Wanfeng said, Cao Xiangnan was not surprised at all. He said, "Well, I understand. Don't worry about it. I'll do it. If they send someone to talk about something in the future, don't go over. Wait for me to come back and deal with it. Do you understand?"

They were separated, and the division of the compound would not affect them. Since his father sent someone to come, he couldn't not go.

"Well." Qi Wanfeng knew that his husband was worried that he would be bullied if he went there, and he didn't know how to deal with those things. He still had to take care of the family here, so he didn't go and waited for his husband to come back and tell him.

In the Cao family compound, Chen Li proposed to separate the family.

Since the fourth uncle's family separated, their lives have been getting better and better, and he was jealous. In the past, it was the fourth uncle who earned money and brought it back to the family, but now it is she and her husband who earn money and bring it back to the family. A family of more than ten mouths are waiting for them to support.

Am is stingy and partial. The money in the family is saved by the couple. Am gave all the money to the fifth uncle for his studies. He kept the money from his husband's work and did not give it to Am. Chen Li did not expect that Am would enter his room while he was planting vegetables in the vegetable garden and search out all the money he hid and take it away.

Chen Li asked his mother to return the money, but his mother refused to return the money with a cold face, and told him as a matter of course, "We haven't divided the family yet! You should just treat me as your mother and give me the money. Do you think it's reasonable for you to hide the money from the old family?"

The two of them quarreled in the yard. Isn't it just a division of the family? He had wanted to divide this family for a long time.

At this time, Chen Li proposed to divide the family, "Divide the family, this family must be divided today!"

"That little money was saved by my husband and I with great difficulty. The children don't even have a piece of meat to eat on weekdays. Mom, you gave all the money to the fifth uncle. We have supported the fifth uncle for so many years and it is enough. If we continue to support him, we won't even have food to eat. I can't live a day like this..." Chen Li knew that her fourth uncle was going to build a school. Who doesn't want to send their children to school? Why did they work so hard to support the fifth uncle to go to school, but their children have no school to go to?

Now the second uncle was sent to do hard labor, Wang Yan brought a few children with him, eating more land and doing less work. Everything was done by him and his husband.

"How much money did you take from the old family? Return it to the old family." Cao Adie, who had returned, also heard the whole story and asked Chen Zhu to return the money to the old family.

The money in his pocket had not even been warmed up yet, so Chen Zhu naturally refused, because the money was his.

Chen Li was now determined to divide the family, even if she didn't want the money, she would still divide the family. If the family was not divided, they would have to live like this.

"Big brother, what do you think about this?" Cao Adie was angry. Now the family was in such a state, filled with smoke and miasma all day long. He looked at the big brother and asked.

"...I, I'll listen to Ali." Cao Fugui lowered his head after he finished speaking, feeling guilty.

"No, I don't agree!" Now that Si'er is gone, the family relies on the eldest brother and Chen Li to work and grow vegetables in exchange for some money. Now that life has finally gotten better, Chen Zhu has no intention of leaving the family.

"Yes, brother, please tell me if you have anything to say. This separation of families has hurt the harmony of the whole family." Wang Yan certainly doesn't want his uncle and uncle to be separated now. How can he support himself with a few small children, and he can't rely on the help of his family, otherwise he will starve to death even his children.

"Peaceful? Did my mother think about peace when she went to search my room! It's okay if we don't divide the family, just give me the money, and we will manage my husband and I's money in the future." Chen Li knew that once the money went into his mother's pocket, it would be difficult for him to get it back. It's okay if we don't divide the family, and their money will belong to them in the future.

"Bah! Don't even think about it." Chen Zhu was so angry that her liver hurt. She wanted to get the money back, but there was no way.

"Separate the family, I must separate the family today!" Chen Li was just like her mother, she stopped crying, a fire was burning in her chest, burning more and more, "My husband, if you don't separate the family, I will take the children back to my parents' home."

"Go away, if you take the children back to your parents' home, don't come back again..." Chen Zhu was sure that Chen Li would not take the children back to her parents' home. It

was unreasonable for a married man to take the children back to her parents' home. His brothers would not welcome them if they went back. There was a huge quarrel in the yard. Cao's father asked someone to invite his fourth son to come over, but he was not at home.

He regretted more than once that he had driven the fourth son's family out. If he had been better to the fourth son's family, would things be different today? But it was useless to regret it now.

When Cao Xiangnan arrived, he saw his father sitting there with an unhappy look on his face. His mother and his eldest brother also looked unhappy. His eldest brother sat there with his head down, still looking cowardly.

There was a quarrel at home, and the group of children dared not say a word. Wang Yan was holding the younger one. When she saw his fourth uncle coming back, she said with a smile, "Fourth uncle, you are here. The eldest brothers are making a fuss about dividing the family property. No matter how I try to persuade them, they won't listen. Fourth uncle, please come and persuade the eldest brothers. How can this family be divided..."

Cao Xiangnan ignored his second brother. He had a very bad impression of Wang Yan. He walked straight to his father and called out, "Dad."

Seeing that his fourth uncle ignored him, Wang Yan's face flashed with embarrassment. Looking at his fourth uncle's back, there was a hint of hatred in her eyes. If it weren't for his fourth uncle, her husband would not have been sent to the government to do hard labor.

"No division, OK, Aunt, return the money you took from me, and I will manage my husband and I's money from now on." This money is related to their future life, Chen Li no longer forbears, if this money is not returned, he will not give her money in the future. "Don't even think about it, this money should be managed by me, Aunt, and you can't think about managing the money before I die!" Chen Zhu is also a powerful person, who is obsessed with money, how could he give the power of managing the house to the old family.

Seeing that the two were about to quarrel again, Cao Adie shouted, "Okay, both of you shut up!"

The two looked at each other and shut up.

"Silang, what do you think about this?" Cao Adie asked.

"Dad, I've already been divided out, so I shouldn't be able to interfere with the division of the family in the compound. How about this, eldest brother, you go and ask the village chief and Li Zheng to come over, and discuss how to deal with this family, whether to divide it or continue like this?" Cao Xiangnan didn't intend to interfere with the division of the family here. He had finally had a few days of peace, and it was impossible for him to fall into this pit again.

Cao Fugui heard what his fourth brother said, turned his head to look at his father, waiting for his father's instructions.

Both father and son have selfish thoughts in their hearts. Cao Fugui is a dull guy, but that doesn't mean he is stupid. In addition, his wife mentions to him every night how his fourth brother's life is, and how other people's lives are. If they work harder, they can live a good life.

Cao Adie did not force his family to return the money to the old family, thinking that this was just a quarrel and they would still be in charge of the money in the future. After all, their fifth son had to go to school and they could not afford to support him. Now the fourth son's family had been divided out, and the second son was not a good person and was sent to do hard labor. They could only live on the little income of the old family.

Seeing that this matter could not be tolerated, Cao Adie sighed and finally agreed, saying, "Go and invite the village chief and Li Zheng and others over." I'm afraid this family will also be divided.

"No, I won't allow it!" Chen Zhu shouted.

"Okay! It's settled." Cao's father had a gloomy face, waved to the eldest brother, and said, "Go, invite the village chief and Li Zheng over."

Cao Fugui took a look at his family, and still went to invite the village chief and Li Zheng over.

When they heard that the Cao family compound was going to be divided, they both came over. The village chief and Li Zheng were now disgusted with each other. On some matters concerning the division of the Cao family compound, the two still held different opinions.

The compound was finally divided again. The eldest brother's family was divided, and he got several acres of land. There were a lot more things than when Cao Silang was divided. There were several houses in the compound, and they were still the same. Although they were divided, they still lived together.

"You have divided the family, and you will also have a share in supporting your father and mother in the future." The village chief proposed that the brothers should support their father and mother.

Cao Laoda agreed to this. Even if the family was divided, he should support his father and mother.

Chen Li was very happy to be able to divide the family. Later, after hearing how much rice and grain he had to give to his father and mother every month, he also agreed. It was better than giving it all to his mother like now.

As for Cao Silang, everyone knew that when the Cao family compound was to be divided, it was clearly written in black and white that they would not interfere with each other after the division of the family, so now that it was proposed to support the two elders, no one dared to count him as a share.

At first, Chen Zhu was afraid that his fourth son would die of illness or that if he didn't die so quickly, he would come back to haunt them. He wanted to get rid of him completely, but now he has no chance to regret it.

Cao Xiangnan's mouth curled up, and there was mockery in it. When he was lying on the bed dying, this family kicked him away, but now that he is doing well, they think of him again. Now his eldest brother and eldest brother are just afraid that this will drag them down, and want to live separately. As for his mother, every penny she has goes to his fifth brother. Even his smart eldest brother has reached his limit to endure until now.

As for his father, if he wasn't selfish, this family wouldn't be in such a mess now.

No one should say that anyone is bad! A shit pit is full of shit smell, there is no fragrance.

Others did not dare to ask him to give rice and rations every month, and he treated it as if it was nothing.

People here would come back to make trouble for him every few days, maybe he would still have the rice and rations when he was in a good mood, as long as people were not starving to death here, he would rather watch the show from the side first, because his mother might have some money in her pocket.

After watching the farce, he also went back home.

"Husband." Qi Wanfeng saw her husband coming back and hurried to greet him.

"It's okay, eldest brother's family has been separated, we don't need to care about what happens there." Cao Xiangnan reached out and held Wanfeng's hand, and took his hand back home.
