Luo Hu, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke: "I agree to sever ties with you. Go call the village chief over."
"My dear, why did you agree?"
Wang Yumei asked in confusion.
She really couldn't bear to sever ties with her son, the one she had carried for ten months and risked her life to give birth to. How could she just sever ties with him like that, since he couldn't even walk, she had raised him bit by bit with so much hardship?
"Father and mother, how about you two come with us? We will sever ties with my brother, and I will take you to the capital to enjoy a good life."
Luo Mingkuan felt really bad seeing his parents like this.
He asked his parents to follow him and cut off ties with his brother's family.
"Asshole! Do you want us to change our last name to Gao too?"
Luo Hu said angrily.
This unfilial son should just change his own surname, but he also wants him to change his surname too.
"No, Dad, it's not..."
"Why don't you go call the village chief over?"
Luo Mingkuan was interrupted by Luo Hu before he could finish his words.
"My dear, go call Minghu and his wife back. Let's write the letter of severance today."
Luo Hu said to Wang Yumei.
Wang Yumei didn't want to break off relations with her eldest son, so under Luo Hu's angry glare, she had to reluctantly go to find Luo Minghu and bring Mei Xue back.
Luo Mingkuan had no choice but to go find the village chief.
After hearing what Luo Mingkuan meant, the village chief could understand him. After all, nothing was more important than a child's education, and his younger siblings were too fond of mischief.
The village chief followed Luo Mingkuan to Luo's house, and Wang Yumei also came back with Luo Minghu and Kong Meixue.
"Uncle wants to sever ties with our parents and give us a shop as compensation, right?"
Kong Meixue's eyes were full of smiles.
Her uncle's shop was doing really well, and she was so envious. Now that the shop was hers, how could she not be happy?
"Yes, as long as my parents agree to sever ties with me, I will have nothing to do with the Ji family in the future. From now on, you can't do anything in the name of our relationship, and you can't contact us again. That shop belongs to my parents."
Luo Mingkuan said truthfully.
"I agree, of course I agree. Dad and Mom, please agree quickly! Don't you want your second son to have a good life?"
Kong Meixue walked up to Wang Yumei and Luo Hu and whispered threateningly.
Wang Yumei was afraid of her daughter-in-law, who was arrogant, domineering, and aggressive. Otherwise, she wouldn't have turned the family into what it is now.
Seeing the threatening look of her second daughter-in-law, she had no choice but to agree.
Luo Hu is also an honest man. He knows that he has to sign the divorce letter today.
He didn't blame his eldest son, because he had done the right thing, severing ties with his family for his son's future. If his second son's family were as kind as his eldest, he certainly wouldn't have agreed. But his second daughter-in-law was a troublemaker, too capable. He feared she would exploit his eldest son's relationship with Princess Xiangyun to commit evil, harming not only his second son's family but also his eldest.
He sees things clearly.
Therefore, he was willing to sever ties with his eldest son.
Luo Mingkuan produced a letter of severance written by Gao Zhijun, stating that the shop in Taizhou would be offered as compensation for Luo Hu and Wang Yumei's upbringing. With the signing of the letter, Luo Mingkuan's family no longer had any ties with Luo Hu, Wang Yumei, Luo Minghu, Kong Meixue, and the others. If they exploited the connections of Luo Mingkuan and Gao Zhijun's family for any further wrongdoing, local officials could detain them at will.
The letter of severance of engagement bears the signatures and handprints of Luo Mingkuan, Gao Zhishan, Luo Ziqiao, and Luo Ziqi, as well as the official seal of Princess Xiangyun.
Luo Hu and Wang Yumei signed and put their fingerprints on the document, and then it was the turn of Luo Minghu, Kong Meixue, and Luo Zilan to sign and put their fingerprints on the document.
The village chief also signed his name and fingerprints, and stamped the official seal.
While Luo Minghu and Sun Meixue were back in their room, Luo Mingkuan secretly gave Wang Yumei two silver notes of one hundred taels each and fifty taels of change.
Gao Zhijun wrote a letter of severance in four copies: one for the government office, one for the village chief, one for Luo Hu, and one for Luo Mingkuan.
The village chief took the four copies of the severance agreement to the government office. Magistrate Zhang personally stamped them and kept one copy for safekeeping.
The village chief returned to Leshan Village with three copies of the severance agreement, giving one to Luo Hu, one to Luo Mingkuan, and one to himself. He then gave the house deed to Luo Hu.
This was changed back by Magistrate Zhang when he went to the government office. Now the name on it is Luo Hu.
When the village chief saw that the matter was settled, he said goodbye and went home.
Luo Mingkuan said goodbye to his parents, left Leshan Village, and went to Gao Zhijun's residence in Huojia Village to meet Ji Guansen and others.
Ji Guansen returned to Leshan Village. Ji Tianming and Cai Jiao looked out from home, wondering when their son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren would come back.
"Dad, Mom, my son is back!"
When Ji Guansen returned home and saw his parents in a daze, he called out to them happily.
Ji Tianming and Cai Jiao looked at each other. They seemed to hear their son calling them.
Following the sound, they looked up and saw the son they had been thinking about day and night.
The two elders smiled, their son came back.
"I'm back, I'm glad I'm back!"
Ji Tianming said happily.
After being away for more than two months, my son finally came back.
For more than two months, he and his wife have been thinking about them day and night, hoping that they would come back soon.
"Where are Jun'er and Miao'er? Didn't they come back with you?"
Cai Jiao didn't see her grandson and granddaughter, so she asked Ji Guansen.
"Dad, Mom, they haven't returned from the capital yet. This time, I came back to take you to the capital, and you will live there from now on."
Ji Guansen told the two elders that he was coming back to take them to the capital.
