Xu Yejun, the eldest son of the Xu family's main branch, understood what was going on and quietly tried to slip out the door.
After taking only two steps, Xu Ningyan said coldly, "Where are you going? Today, anyone who dares to step out of this door without my permission, if they take the left leg, I'll break the old hag's left leg! If they take the right leg, I'll break the old hag's right leg! Do you want to try?"
As he spoke, he placed one foot on Miao Cuihua's calf, as if he would break it at the slightest provocation.
Now, even if other members of the Xu family dared to try, Miao Cuihua wouldn't dare let them try.
They desperately urged Xu Yejun to come back quickly, and told no one to leave this room!
Xu Yejun had no choice but to retreat, and the family looked at each other in bewilderment.
No one dared to move.
Xu Baolai, the third son of the Xu family, is always cunning. He always smiles when he talks to anyone and is very good at saying flattering things. The younger generation of the Xu family all like him.
Feeling that Xu Siya should give him some face after he spoke, he forced a smile and said, "Siya, why are you doing this? We're all family, and there's no such thing as holding a grudge overnight. Making a scene won't do you any good, and it'll only make you a laughingstock!"
"Your third uncle knows you feel bad about your family, but your grandma is right. Every girl goes through this. What's there to feel aggrieved about?"
"But your third uncle knows you're a good child. How about this, your third uncle will plead with your grandma on your behalf, and we'll let bygones be bygones for stealing the eggs and rice. Consider it a way to help you recover! We'll also make you a new set of clothes and let you rest at home for a couple of days. That'll be the end of it! From now on, live a peaceful life! You can't disobey your elders like this again!"
As soon as the words were spoken, two voices rang out one after the other.
"Bullshit! That brat hit me, and you're just going to let her off so easily? Make her clothes? Dream on!"
"Not particularly good-looking, but surprisingly quite beautiful!"
The speakers were Miao Cuihua and Xu Ningyan.
The two exchanged a glance and both snorted.
Xu Ningyan said impatiently, "Stop playing the emotional card with me! Stop with this nonsense! Let's split up!"
"What?"
"Separate the family?"
The Xu family couldn't believe their ears.
It's common for families to separate, but it's unheard of to separate an underage girl who hasn't been married yet!
Xu Ningyan slowly tugged at Miao Cuihua's hair. "Yes, let's split up! If you agree, then we'll split up cleanly! If you don't agree, that's fine too. Whoever makes me unhappy, I'll make them unhappy too! You don't want to split up, huh? Anyway, I'm just a worthless life, and I've died once, so I'm not afraid of anything! If you don't agree, I'll take a knife and stab you all one by one, then set this house on fire! Our whole family will go down to the underworld and reunite, forever together and never separated, believe it or not?"
These words were spoken with a chilling tone, and both of Xu's granddaughters-in-law were so frightened that they huddled in a corner, clutching their children and trembling all over.
The rest of the Xu family members also broke out in a cold sweat.
Judging from Xu Siya's attitude, she must have gone mad.
Xu Jinlai and the others were actually quite tempted. Seeing that Siya had gone mad with killing, what if she went crazy and hurt people again if they left such a madwoman at home?
It would be better to separate them, sever ties, and see if that crazy girl can cause any trouble.
But Miao Cuihua disagreed. Her eyes flickered, and she was actually somewhat wavering.
But remembering her daughter Xu Zhenzhu's instructions to keep a close eye on Siya and trample her underfoot, she managed to hold back.
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Xu Jinlai is the eldest son in the family, and he has to step up in crucial moments.
Clearing his throat and about to speak, Xu Yewei burst in, shouting. Without even taking in the situation, he yelled, "Grandma, Grandma, that bitch Siya! She's hooked up with that 'Five Black Categories' element in the cowshed! She spoke up for him, and even beat me up for him! Because of him, she even chased away Li Ergou, Wang Sanpang, and Xu Dazhuang, offending everyone—"
"What?" Not to mention Xu Jin, even Miao Cuihua felt a wave of dizziness.
Everyone knows that at this time of year, anyone who dares to associate with the "Five Black Categories" is universally condemned!
Those who were lucky enough to be criticized and denounced, and those who were unlucky might be sent down to a farm.
This whole family, old and young, if they're really sent down to the farm, will they even be able to come back alive?
Xu Jinlai knew he couldn't hesitate any longer; if he hesitated any longer, his whole family would be implicated.
Without hesitation: "Separate! Separate immediately! We must separate! Not only separate the family, but also sever all ties with Siya!"
The Xu family members all nodded in agreement.
Yes, not only should we separate the family, but we should also sever all ties to be on the safe side!
Even Miao Cuihua couldn't care less about Xu Zhenzhu's instructions at this moment.
After all, if there was someone in the family who was associated with the "Five Black Categories," Xu Zhenzhu would probably be implicated, and how could she marry into the city?
The Xu family reached an agreement in an instant.
Xu Jinlai looked at Xu Ningyan: "Are you satisfied now? Separating the family is fine! But you'll have to sign a severance agreement! After the separation, you'll no longer be a member of the Xu family. Whether you live or die, whether you're good or bad, that's your own business, and it has nothing to do with the Xu family!"
Xu Ningyan rolled her eyes and said slowly, "Separating the family is fine, but severing ties with relatives is another matter—"
He deliberately stopped halfway through his sentence.
Miao Cuihua panicked: "Sever ties! Sever ties immediately! We won't separate until we're officially married!"
Xu Ningyan scoffed: "Can you keep your word? I'm not your biological child. My real parents are still in the county town! Don't sign this disownment agreement and then come back later saying my parents don't acknowledge me, and then they'll cling to me—"
Miao Cuihua said firmly, "That's absolutely impossible! Your parents made it clear when they sent you back to your hometown to be raised when you were three years old that your future life, marriage and everything else would be decided by your aunt and me! It has nothing to do with them! Even your household registration has been transferred back to our brigade and registered under your uncle's name! As long as your uncle agrees, that's all that matters!"
Xu Ningyan's eyes turned cold; she truly felt sorry for the original owner of this body.
It turns out that she was completely abandoned by her biological parents when she was three years old.
However, with these words, there's no need to worry about the original owner's biological parents coming to cause trouble later.
Nodding, he said, "In that case, go and invite the brigade leader to preside over the division of the family property! Make it clear in person, so you won't deny it later!"
The Xu family was more than happy to accept this, and indeed they wanted to invite the brigade leader to be a witness, so that if Xu Ningyan was later labeled as a member of the "Five Black Categories," they would not be implicated.
Once Xu Yejun received permission, he and his second brother, Xu Yebing, couldn't wait to run outside.
To be on the safe side, the two of them simply invited both the brigade leader and the village secretary.
On the way, they ran into Xu Zhenzhu, who was on her way home.
Xu Zhenzhu was not supposed to work in the fields, but as a high school student, she got the spot through the brigade's recommendation.
During busy farming seasons, everyone has to go back to the production brigade to help with the work.
This time, in order to save Lu Kai and bring him back to the brigade, and also to show her good character, she helped the scorekeeper record work points.
This job is easy and respectable, it couldn't be more suitable.
After work, I helped the warehouse keeper register the farm tools to be recycled for the brigade. I was busy until now before I finally got home.
Seeing Xu Yejun and his brother, along with the brigade leader and the party secretary, walking home with grim faces, my heart skipped a beat.
