"What are you talking about? Huaiyi knows that the clan leader is concerned about me, his younger brother."

"Please come in, clan leader and village head!"

Su Huaiyi led the way. Except for Liu Xia and Su Yun who were busy in the kitchen, everyone else sat in the living room to discuss.

Su Yun was washing vegetables absentmindedly.

[Alas, I don't know if this division of the family will result in a huge loss. The plot has indeed reached the stage of division of the family! Although the eldest sister is not right this time, my grandparents don't know that the second uncle is not their biological son, so they will definitely give him half of the things. ]

Liu Xia paused while cutting vegetables.

The second brother is not my biological brother? Then where is my biological second brother now?

Liu Xia wanted to ask something but didn't know how to start.

It seems that I can only find an opportunity to remind my parents...

[I really want to go and see it, but how can I tell my mom? It’s not good for me to go alone, right?]

Su Yun looked up and pulled the corner of her mouth worriedly.

Liu Xia suppressed her smile and said, "Good boy, go make some tea and bring it to your uncle and the village chief." (The chief of the Su clan is Su Huaiyi's cousin.) "Okay!"

Su Yun smiled sweetly, with a small dimple at the left corner of her mouth.

[My mother is so nice, I love her the most! ]

This child, what's the point of talking about love or not, it's so embarrassing.

The tips of Liu Xia's ears slowly turned light pink.

…

"No, I don't agree! This is unfair! Why should everything be given to my eldest brother's family, leaving us with nothing? Are you bullying me because my family is far away and can't help? Damn it, you Su family are bullying me, a daughter-in-law from another place! I won't live anymore~"

Su Yun heard her second aunt crying before she even entered the main room. She stood at the door, not knowing whether to go in or not.

There was a loud "bang".

Li slammed the table.

"I'm not dead yet, why are you crying and howling like a ghost? Why? Because you, an unfilial daughter-in-law, are instigating the younger generation to demand a division of the family, and because your good daughter is slandering the elders! Why do you say that? Our Su family really married a good daughter-in-law!"

Wang Baoyi knew she was in the wrong and didn't dare to say anything more.

Su Jianan fell to his knees with a plop.

"Mother, I am unfilial! The division of the family is entirely up to you, parents."

He knew at a very young age that he was not his parents' biological child.

A nanny came to him and said that he was the son of Lord Rong, and his biological mother was an insignificant concubine. In order to protect him, she resorted to this desperate measure to exchange the child, but the real Su Jianan had already...

After knowing this secret, he has felt guilty since childhood and could only work hard and do what he could.

Now their family of four has left the house with nothing, which can be regarded as repaying the kindness of raising them!

Su Bing rolled his eyes when he saw Su Jianan's look.

His second brother is the best at pretending, making his whole family look like bad guys.

"Second brother, isn't it true that you are unfilial? If it wasn't our parents who decided to divide the family, could it be you who decided?"

"Brother, I didn't..."

Su Jianan pinched his palms, his face full of grief.

Su Bing is still so annoying...

He let go only when he felt a sticky sensation in his palms.

Wang Baoyi didn’t know what Su Jianan was thinking, she just knew that she couldn’t just let it go.

"You can leave the house with nothing, but give me back my dowry."

"shut up!"

Su Huaiyi scolded and bowed to the Su clan leader and the village head.

"My cousin, the village head. I'm sorry to have embarrassed you."

"Huai Yi must have your reasons for doing this."

Chief Su realized that Su Laoer's family was not as honest as they appeared to be.

He wouldn't believe that his daughter-in-law instigated her daughter without Su Laoer's hint.

The head of the village also waved his hand and said, "Huaiyi, if that's the case, I'll write a name for you..."

"Wait a minute, shouldn't my mother's dowry be returned? How can someone split up the family and still covet his daughter-in-law's dowry? You should know that my grandfather not only gave my mother fifty taels of silver for her survival, but also some gold and silver jewelry." Su Xiyue interrupted the head of the village.

The village head stared at Su Xiyue sharply, "Little kid, why should you speak when the elders are talking? Su Laoer, is this the good daughter you taught?"

"I'm sorry, I know I was wrong."

Even though Su Xiyue was reluctant, she had to speak obediently.

She lowered her head and said no more words, her body trembling slightly.

This village head was no simple person. Just his pair of dead eyes almost intimidated her, not to mention the invisible force of an unknown gas pressing on her heart, as if it could crush her to death in an instant.

Is this the inner strength of the ancient people?

It really can’t be underestimated!

"Hmph~" Li Zheng snorted.

He turned his head and gave Su Yun outside the door a loving smile and waved.

"When did Yun come? Come in quickly, Grandpa is thirsty."

[You already found it a long time ago! How could an old hero who has been on the battlefield not find a little kid like me? ]

Li Zheng saw a fat baby wearing a green skirt with two flower-shaped braids, holding a tray in his hands, looking at him with admiration.

The mouth did not move.

The knowledgeable head of the village knew that he was destined to be with Yun girl so that he could hear her thoughts.

Su Yun thought that the fact that he had been to the battlefield was something she heard from her grandfather.

But, hero? This was the first time someone praised him in their hearts.

The head of the village was very happy and automatically ignored the word "old" in front.

"Great grandfather, great uncle, grandpa and grandma, have some tea."

Su Yun complained but she quickly served tea to everyone except her second uncle's family.

Wang Baoyi was instantly annoyed.

Well, not only the old ones in this family bully her, but the young ones also bully her.

"What do you mean, you loser?"

"What's wrong with Second Aunt? There are only four tea sets in the house. Shouldn't they be given to the elders? Besides, didn't my father drink it either?" Su Yun said innocently.

"Second daughter-in-law, do you have a problem with me?"

The headman put down the tea heavily, and a piece of tea leaf along with the water droplets splashed high and fell into the cup intact.

"Su Lao Er, is this how you discipline your wife?"

"Baoyi, shut up." Su Jianan shouted angrily, and then wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve. "Li Zheng, I promise Baoyi and Yue'er won't say a word later, let's get down to business!"

"Well, that's better!"

The head of the village stared at Su Jianan for a long time before looking away.

"Huai Yi, do you have anything else to add?"

"Uncle, I have something to say about the dowry from the second family. Since it is divided so clearly, we have to calculate it carefully.

The second son's wife gave a dowry of fifty taels of silver, which she used for Yuansheng's studies. As for the gold and silver jewelry, she sold them herself and asked someone to buy them for Yuansheng.

That’s not all. My wife and I paid for Yuansheng’s education and even paid for his coffin, and we still owe another twenty taels of silver.

The division of the family must be calculated clearly, otherwise, wouldn't it be a disadvantage for the eldest son if we two old men followed him? The total amount of money spent on Yuansheng plus the money borrowed was 100 taels of silver. After deducting the dowry of the second son's wife, there was still 50 taels of silver, which the second son's family had to pay back."

Su Huaiyi took out the IOU and account book from his pocket and handed them to the village head and the clan leader.

The two looked through it and nodded.

"Su Lao Er, you have to return your parents' coffins!"

Chief Su now doesn't even look at Su Jianan. He knows that Huaiyi borrowed money, and the account book records it clearly.

Wang Baoyi wanted to say something else, but Su Jianan gave her a look.

He said respectfully to Chief Su.

“It’s my duty!”

He reached out his hand to Wang Baoyi again.

“Bring it here!”

"What?" Wang Baoyi pretended to be dumb.
