Yue Jiuyue couldn't stand being hugged by such a big boy, even though they were mother and son in name.
Lin Chaobei eventually went over, gave Yue Jiuyue a big smile, said "Okay!", and carried the rabbit back to his room.
Now that the west wing has become a small-scale breeding farm, Lin Chaobei didn't want to face the stench of chicken droppings and urine for twelve hours a day. So, the day after the chicks were moved to his room, he moved them back to the room where the two brothers used to live, which was opposite Yue Jiuyue's bedroom.
Waving the other two away to go about their business, Yue Jiuyue returned to her room, sat on the edge of the bed and did a set of eye exercises before leaning against the headboard to think.
What Yue Jiuyue was thinking about was naturally the matter of "dividing the family property".
The original owner's son, out of consideration for her as his biological mother, would definitely not have any objections to her; even if he did, he would have to keep them to himself.
But what if they get married?
Take Liu Shi for example. She won't come to the front unless there's something wrong. When there is something, she will send Lin Chaodong to tell her. Even the food is brought back to their room by Lin Chaodong. Even if she wants to remind Liu Shi that it's not good to stay in bed all the time, she is afraid of being blamed if she says too much.
Lin Chaodong, when speaking now, is also protecting Liu Shi in his words. Although it may be because of the fetus in Liu Shi's belly, if Liu Shi really gives birth to a big fat son for Lin Chaodong, Lin Chaodong's mind will definitely be on Liu Shi and her son in the future. Although she is not a mother-in-law who is afraid that her daughter-in-law will take her son away, teeth and tongue will still fight, let alone "two families".
She didn't want to compromise herself to please others, nor did she want her peaceful life to be disrupted, and she certainly didn't want to be someone's maid. She just wanted to live out her life comfortably on her own, nothing more.
However, people in this era value "filial piety" and adhere to the tradition of "not separating the family while parents are alive." If she were to separate Lin Chaodong's family, it would make things difficult for that family. People who didn't know the situation might think that Lin Chaodong was "unfilial" and was kicked out by Yue Jiuyue. After all, the eldest son of the eldest son's family is supposed to inherit the family business and support his parents in their old age.
How could she reasonably separate the eldest son's family first? Yue Jiuyue prepared to use her not-so-bright brain to come up with a reasonable solution.
Otherwise, why not become a cruel mother-in-law who torments her daughter-in-law?
No, no, this will ruin her own reputation. Although she doesn't care much about her reputation, why should she ruin it just for the sake of dividing the family property? Unless that family refuses to share the family property she earned!
That's impossible. Besides, when the family property was divided, the eldest son always got the lion's share, and she couldn't bear to part with it!
Otherwise, should we wait until after Madam Liu gives birth? What if it's a girl...?
No, what if it causes Liu to develop depression? Liu is already going crazy with longing for a son, she can't do that!
Huh? Didn't she used to think that each person would have their own courtyard? Now, why not just build the courtyards all scattered around?
In that case, we wouldn't have to meet every day. It would be best if we didn't eat together regularly, and there wouldn't be any need for greetings on the first and fifteenth of the lunar month. She's not some noble ancestor; we just need to get together for a reunion dinner during holidays.
This idea is absolutely the best solution Yue Jiuyue could come up with!
Now that there are already three mountain peaks, Yue Jiuyue looked out the window and secretly made up her mind that she must buy a few more mountain peaks so that the distance between everyone would be more suitable!
