The old lady naturally noticed the uneasy expressions on her eldest son and daughter-in-law's faces.
She looked at the two of them and said, "You two should also go out with her."
Liu Sanya's temperament has completely deteriorated. If she were released alone, who knows what she might do? Sending the main branch of the family out together would keep an eye on her.
Moreover, the other wives have a lot of opinions about the eldest wife's family, so it would be better for them to separate. She could then help ease the tensions between them.
The eldest son looked distressed. "Mom, are you really so heartless as to separate us from the family?"
The old lady was still worried about the eldest son's family, but upon hearing this, her face instantly turned cold. "It's not that I'm heartless and want to separate you all, it's your daughter who's causing trouble."
"You're just going to let her move out on her own?"
"If you get into any trouble, or even lose your chastity before marriage, can your main branch afford to lose face?"
She felt that with Liu Sanya's shameless nature, she was capable of doing something as innocent as losing her chastity before marriage.
If the family doesn't separate, the girls in the family will all have their reputations tarnished.
Old Liu was speechless, unable to bring himself to say that his daughter would never do such a thing.
Liu Sanya was displeased. "Grandma, if you want to divide the family property, just say so. What do you mean by throwing mud at me?"
The old lady gave her a cold glance. "We haven't even settled accounts with you for falsely accusing me yet."
Liu Sanya then pursed her lips and didn't retort.
Instead, he said to Boss Liu and his companion, "See? They don't care about you at all."
"Why do you people who can earn full work points every day insist on staying here?"
"Wouldn't it be better to keep the surplus grain and money for yourself?"
"And I will find a way to make your lives better. Let's split the family as they suggested."
“If you don’t separate, you won’t be able to stay in this house. The other families don’t welcome you.”
These words did indeed tempt the Liu couple.
But they have no son, and they still want to rely on their nephew to break pots in the future. If they separate their property, there will be no hope.
Liu Sanya could see her parents' dilemma and knew their weakness.
“You do so much work at home and don’t eat well. Let’s go out and eat better. My mom can have another child, maybe she’ll be able to have a boy.”
"Or I could have my sister find a husband, and the son she has will have the surname Liu."
“You have the food and money in your own hands, you can do whatever you want, how free and easy is that? Why bother suffering with these awful people?”
These words displeased the other families.
"Liu Sanya, how can you talk like that? If we're talking about top-quality women, it's you and your first wife who are the real gems."
"Exactly, he's lazy, shameless, and has the nerve to call others 'extreme'."
"Big brother, just listen to your daughter and let it be separated. We don't want to be branded as the bloodsuckers of your eldest son's family anymore."
“We dare not live with you anymore. If your daughter is unhappy one day and secretly puts some pesticide in our food, we won’t even know how we died.”
The other families were genuinely scared, and Liu Sanya's words were too harsh; they didn't want to take the blame for such a terrible person.
When the eldest Liu and his wife heard what the other family members said, their faces flushed with embarrassment and shyness.
Wu Xiaocao's mind was filled with her daughter's words, and she kicked Liu Laoda under the table.
It's really good that we can keep the leftover food and money each year.
She no longer had to put up with the temper of her sisters-in-law, nor did she have to put up with the old lady's attitude.
Just like my daughter said, if they go out and take good care of themselves, they can have another child, and maybe it will be a boy.
After being kicked by his wife, having lived together for so many years, Old Man Liu naturally understood what she meant.
After a long pause, he finally took a deep breath and said, "Fine, since you all want us to split up, then let's split up."
Qingyou discovers that some of Liu Sanya's personality traits are actually inherited from the first wife and her husband.
They clearly listened to Liu Sanya and were interested in separating from the family, but their words made it sound like their families were forcing them to do so.
So she said, "Uncle, what you're saying makes it sound like everyone's forcing you to divide the family property."
"What do you mean we want you to separate? It's your daughter who's been making a fuss about separating the family property, okay?"
“If you really don’t want to separate, then don’t separate this family. Grandma and the others won’t force you.”
The old lady now trusts Qingyou very much, and she gets angry when she hears her eldest son's words.
"That's right, we didn't force you. It was all your daughter's fault. I think you also wanted to separate."
"Since you're going to pin the blame on us, then let's not split it."
These words made Liu Sanya anxious. She glared at Qingyou resentfully. It was that wretched girl again trying to sabotage things.
Then he said, "We're separating, it's our own decision to separate, it has nothing to do with you, okay?"
The old lady scoffed, "That's just how it is."
The Liu couple dared not speak again, and both lowered their heads and pretended to be dead.
He also disliked his niece, Qingyou, from the bottom of his heart.
If it weren't for her meddling, the first wife's family wouldn't have gotten to this point.
After a while, Liu Laoliu invited the brigade leader, the village chief, and several respected elders from the village over.
After they sat down, the old lady told them about Liu Sanya's initiative to propose dividing the family property.
The captain and the others were completely speechless at Liu Sanya. She was released from detention and education at the station, but she started causing trouble again as soon as she got home. They had never seen a girl like her before.
"Okay, you guys divide it up, we'll be the witnesses!"
No one advised against separating the family; instead, they all understood the feelings of the elderly couple, Mr. and Mrs. Liu.
With such a troublemaker in the family, there's no peace until we separate.
The old lady went inside and took out all the remaining money and tickets.
"There are still 475 yuan left in the house. Although it was Liu Sanya from the first wife who was wrong, since we are going to divide the family property, I will not be biased or mistreat you."
“These money and tickets will be divided into five parts, one for my wife and me, and one for each of the other four families.”
"You can have the first share from the eldest son's family. I'll keep the shares from the other sons' families. You don't have any objections, do you?"
Even the eldest son's family had no objections.
The old lady took out forty-five yuan and pushed it in front of Wu Xiaocao, saying, "This is for your family."
Liu Sanya noticed the money was wrong. Before her mother could get it, she reached out and counted the money herself. "Grandma, the money you gave us is wrong!"
"It's only forty-five yuan here, how could you deduct fifty from our payment?"
Her actions and manner of speaking caused the captain and others to frown.
This Liu Sanya is outrageous; she has no respect for her elders and is very impolite.
The old lady remained calm. "Go ask your maternal grandmother for the other fifty yuan."
"Now that the family has separated, the money your mother's family borrowed will naturally go with your branch of the family. Do you expect us to be the ones to take the fall?"
The eldest son's wife should bear the cost of this money, no matter where it is; she wouldn't want to give people something to talk about in public.
