Tao Yuwei's mouth twitched slightly.
The old woman's words sound high-sounding. Don't treat us as fools.
Everyone knew exactly what was going on.
It's just that he found out that she is quite capable of causing trouble and will bring instability to the General's Mansion.
[Mother, please agree to her request. My second uncle's affair with a prostitute is about to be exposed.]
[How could I miss such a good opportunity to split up the family?]
Mrs. Wu sat in the chair, having regained her spirits. When she heard that her mother-in-law, who had forced her own son and his family to stay in the general's mansion for many years and refused to separate the family, had finally decided to divide the family, she did not feel happy at all.
Seeing that her daughter and the General's Mansion were facing disaster, her stepmother-in-law proposed dividing the family at this time, wanting to sever ties with them and not caring about their life or death. It was obvious that she had no affection for the eldest wife at all.
No matter what Wu thought in her heart, she did not want to be caught by others, so she openly opposed it firmly.
"Mom, why are you talking about dividing the family now? If my second brother's family is separated, you should stay at home and take charge, right?"
Fang's heart choked.
At this point, the eldest son's wife is so stupid that she actually wants to drag her own son's family into the water. She is so cruel.
The division of the family is imminent. Once the troublemaker, the eldest wife, is convicted of murdering the prince, she and her own son and their entire family will be doomed.
She remembered that the young lady of the Zhuguo Mansion was of noble status and her father was a famous hero who saved the country and a great general.
It was because he murdered the prince in the palace that he was sentenced to death. Although he was the father-in-law of His Royal Highness Prince Yong, he could not stop the royal family's thundering measures, and all the people in the mansion were destroyed.
"I have enjoyed a lot of happiness with you two, my eldest brother. It is time for my second brother to take care of me in my old age. When the family is divided, I will leave the house with your second brother and his family."
[Tsk, aren't you just afraid of getting implicated by me and losing your life?]
Sun felt very uncomfortable hearing Fang's words.
The old woman was going too far. She agreed to the division of the family. After all, no matter how favored Anle was by His Majesty, she was not his biological daughter. The royal family had done things like turning against someone at any time.
But she didn't want to serve this mother-in-law who had many demands, spent a lot of money, and had many health problems.
Originally, seeing that the General's Mansion was enjoying the Emperor's favor, she and her son thought that if they planned for a few more years, the General's Mansion would fall into the hands of their second branch.
Looking at the current situation, there is no need to wait until later, as big trouble has already come to her door. Her husband and son have already found a way out, and have also met a noble person. It is just the right time to separate them.
"Sister-in-law, I'm ashamed. Before, my husband had no job, and we shamelessly lived in the mansion. Now, my husband has a salary to support the family. We can't continue to cause trouble for my brother. Let's divide this house!"
"Mother, please help me."
[He relied on us to get a job, but now, seeing us in trouble, he wants to sever ties with us immediately. What an ungrateful person.]
Fang didn't expect that her own daughter-in-law was unwilling to support her. How could she not be angry?
She must follow her own son and leave the General's Mansion as soon as possible.
I was reluctant to leave, but I couldn't risk being beheaded by staying here.
"Shut up, second brother's wife. It's your duty to support me. How can you trouble your eldest brother and his wife again?"
Fang's face turned ashen, and she scolded Sun so much that she dared not speak again.
[The old woman actually still knows how to speak decently! In the past, her sweet words could kill people!]
Tao Baichuan looked at the rich and magnificent Songming Hall and sighed inwardly that it was a pity.
He was also thinking that after he joined the Imperial Guard, he would make more friends and win over the hearts of the people in the name of the General's Mansion and do things for that nobleman.
It seems that we can no longer rely on the power of the General's Mansion.
"Uncle, I'm an adult now. I can't rely on you for my living anymore. You should divide this family up!"
Tao Baichuan acted as if he was considering the eldest wife's family entirely.
"I don't agree. As a son, I have taken care of my mother for many years. How can I watch you and my second brother suffer?" Tao Zhihong walked in from outside in a loud voice.
"Father, you're so foolish! Divide the family property quickly! When the censor accuses you of misconduct in the court, the crime of keeping a young prostitute will fall squarely on you."
Tao Yuwei remembered that someone maliciously guided the censor to send a witness before the emperor, who put all the blame on her father for the disgusting things done by her second uncle Tao Jingyu.
Before my father had the chance to defend himself, he was framed and accused of embezzling military funds from the camp outside Beijing.
Tao Zhihong's filial words instead angered Fang.
Why couldn't the eldest couple understand her polite words?
In that case, don't blame her for being so cruel.
In order to save his life, today, this family must be divided even if he doesn't want to.
Fang angrily said to Tao Yuwei, "Bah!" and spat out a mouthful of water in an uncivilized manner.
Sun was closest to her mother-in-law, so all the saliva fell on her.
The frightened Sun screamed like a frightened mouse, ran to the side quickly, took a handkerchief in her hand, and wiped the saliva marks that made her feel disgusted.
Tao Yuwei laughed out loud when she saw this.
[The old woman's bad breath could kill many mosquitoes. Sun must have known about this, which is why she reacted so strongly.]
"Boss, Yu Wei is the scourge of our family. Look at the good things she has done. She even attempted to murder the prince. This is a capital crime."
"The roots of our family cannot be cut off because of her, so we must divide this family. If you don't, you are disobeying me and it is extremely unfilial."
Fang glared at Sun fiercely, daring to despise her saliva. She said that she would deal with this unpresentable daughter-in-law after the family was divided.
[Dad, stop hesitating and agree to her. Believe me, she'll regret it once the family is divided. Cut off all ties with her before someone arrives from the palace.]
After hearing his daughter's true feelings, Tao Zhihong didn't bother to wipe the sweat from his forehead. His face turned pale and he knelt down to Fang with a helpless voice.
"Mom, if you suddenly separate from me and let my second brother raise you, it will be bad for my reputation if it gets out. I don't agree to the separation."
Sun stopped wiping and glanced at Tao Zhihong, who was determined not to split the family, with resentment in her eyes.
"Brother, Yuwei has caused a great disaster and is the source of our family's misfortune. How can you ignore the lives of mother and our second family for the sake of your own reputation?"
[It's rare for someone to speak selfish words so openly.]
Tao Baichuan was also getting impatient. He had originally thought that after separating from the first wife's family, their second wife's status in the capital would definitely plummet.
It now seems that this family must be divided immediately. Otherwise, once Xiao Yuwei captures his cousin and the charges are determined, he will also become a prisoner and his future will be ruined.
He was not afraid of the division of the family property. He would become the emperor's personal guard tomorrow, and his father also held an official position. In addition, he was secretly helping the two nobles, so he would naturally receive benefits.
"Uncle, my cousin's situation is very serious. Please think about us and divide the family quickly!"
