Xie Lao Er and his wife had reasons and evidence to prove that they abused Xie Heng's three children, so naturally, their allegations could not withstand investigation.
The next day, the Xie family divided up their property under the patriarch's watchful eyes.
Xie Dazhu and Liu Pan'er would live with Xie Laoda's family from now on. Xie Lao'er and Xie Heng's families would each give them 5 yuan a month, plus 20 kilograms of grain. The same would apply to Xie Lao'er after he got married.
Finally, Liu Pan'er asked the clan leader to write a note stating that Xie Lao Da's three sons had turned 16, and Xie Heng wanted to give them a job or let them join the army.
The Xie family's money and belongings were divided into five parts, one for each of Xie Lao Da, Xie Lao Er, Xie Heng, Xie Lao Si, Liu Pan Er, and Xie Da Zhu. Xie Heng didn't take any of the belongings, only his room. Of course, the money could only be divided according to the existing wealth.
Liu Pan'er muttered, "Third brother, I've wronged you all these years. Now that the family has split up, I'm going to wrong you too. Oh, if your father knew about this, he would be furious. Third brother, why don't you and your eldest brother go see your father in a few days and let him know that our family has split up."
"Mom, I know. I'll go see Dad the day after tomorrow."
"Okay, then you and your brother will go together."
The next day, Xie Lao Da and Xie Heng looked at Xie Da Zhu, who had aged a dozen years, and choked up, "Dad, you've suffered."
"Boss? Boss, why are you here? Third brother? You're here too?"
Xie Heng exchanged pleasantries with Boss Xie for a while, and then told Boss Xie what had happened at home in the past few days.
When Boss Xie heard that the family had been divided, he was relieved. Fortunately, Liu Pan'er had some brains and helped him and the others. In addition, the fourth brother got a job as a worker in the factory, which comforted him a little.
"Third brother, kneel down." After saying that, Xie Heng knelt down directly.
"Third brother, the family will not be divided as long as our parents are alive. You are slapping your father in the face."
"Dad, I really don't know what to do. I've come this far, I can't let Lotus really ruin my future!"
Then Xie Dazhu gave Xie Heng a few more symbolic words, asking him not to forget his parents back home. Xie Lao Da also said that Xie Heng would give his three sons a job or a chance to join the army in the future.
"Third brother, Dad is old. I am sorry for you in this matter. I failed to discipline Hehua well. I am useless. When you return to the army in the future, you must work hard and don't let Dad delay you anymore."
"Dad, don't worry. Yumei and I have agreed that even if I can't stay in the capital, I will take the initiative to apply to go back to my old unit. Although my old unit may not be as good as the capital, it has more missions and more acquaintances. It may not be a bad thing for my son to stay in my old unit."
"Okay, okay, as long as you have your own plans."
Xie Lao Da's eyes lit up, "Don't worry, Lao San, I'll take care of your parents, you don't have to worry."
"Brother, I will definitely work hard in the army."
Xie Dazhu smiled and said, "Okay, Dad will wait for the day when the third child becomes successful."
That night, inside the Xie family, Boss Xie's wife looked at Boss Xie, whose face was filled with smiles, and asked in confusion, "Dad, is there any good news?"
"It's more than just a happy event, it's a huge happy event."
"What's going on?"
"I originally thought the Third Brother was done for, but now it seems he has other plans. It's better to split up the family, so that when our Zhaofeng becomes successful, we won't be tarnished by the Second Brother and Hehua."
Although Boss Xie's wife didn't understand, she still nodded obediently. After all, in her heart, Boss Xie was her heaven, and whatever he said was right.
In Xie Heng's house, Xie Heng wanted to take his three children with him this time, but Zhang Yumei was naturally unwilling to do so. She still wanted to have a son with Xie Heng as soon as possible.
"Xie Heng, you'll be reassigned next year. If you take your three children back now, they'll have to move with us next year. I'm worried that they'll have trouble adapting to the capital after all the hard work they've put into it, and then they'll have trouble returning to their original unit."
As Xie Heng pondered, Zhang Yumei continued, "Why don't we give Mom and Dad an extra ten yuan a month, like before, and let Mom take care of them back home. When you get assigned a job next year, we'll take them over, just in time for them to start school."
"Okay, let's do as you say."
Zhang Yumei hugged Xie Heng's neck and said in a sweet voice, "Xie Heng, you're so kind. Don't worry, you will definitely be better than Qin Zheng in the future."
Xie Heng wondered in his heart: Is it true?
Of course, I will be better than Qin Zheng in the future.
The next day, Xie Heng told Liu Pan'er and Boss Xie about this, and they were naturally overjoyed. They had just been lacking something that could hold Xie Heng's lifeline, and now Xie Heng had actually delivered it directly. What a joyous occasion.
After Xie Zhaochi and the others found out, Xie Zhaoshen burst into tears and said, "Brother, does Dad really have a stepmother and doesn't want us anymore? Dad didn't want to marry our mother in the first place. Now that Dad has a stepmother, and she's going to have brothers and sisters in the future, he definitely doesn't want us anymore."
"Don't cry, don't worry, Dad said he would pick us up next year, so he will keep his word."
"What if he doesn't come?"
"Then let's go find him."
"Okay, big brother. If Dad doesn't come to pick us up next year, we'll go find him."
Xie Zhaochi's eyes were deep as he pondered: Although the family had split up and no one was bullying them now, who knew if their second aunt and Xie Zhaolong would bully them after their father passed away? So he needed to put on some eye drops in front of Xie Heng.
Xie Zhaochi found Xie Heng and talked about how much he missed him and how much he admired him over the years, how hard their lives were, how they were hungry and cold, and how anyone could bully them. Tears rolled down his cheeks.
