"Besides, why did she only give the money she earned to the eldest brother, and not to the second and third brothers? She is so partial to the eldest brother, if the second, third, and fourth brothers knew about this, they would be so disappointed."

I heard Li Hongyan calculate so clearly whether her parents would divorce and how to divide their property.

Her husband Zhao Faliang was frightened when he heard this, and stared at Li Hongyan with wide eyes, as if he had just recognized his wife today.

Li Pingwang, who was worried about not having enough money to pay his debts, heard this and his eyes lit up. He couldn't help but slap his thigh and said, "That's right. Half of the money she earns belongs to me. She hasn't given me a dime in the past few years. I guess she has saved a lot. I'll go ask her for it now."

Now that I have money in hand, I can pay off those debts quickly.

Seeing that she had finally made her father clear, Li Hongyan breathed a sigh of relief and warned her father Li Pingwang with a serious face: "Dad, you must remember that you are just trying to scare my mom, not really wanting to divorce her."

Getting divorced is like killing the hen that lays eggs.

Not getting divorced is the only way to have a long-lasting relationship, and eating eggs is the only way to have a long-lasting relationship.

Li Pingwang was now confident and more resolute to ask his wife Chen Xiaoying for money: "No, I have to ask her for money now. Maybe the loan shark will come to my door."

Li Pingwang told Li Hongyan how the people from the public security brigade arrested two loan sharks yesterday.

Li Hongyan was a little scared when she heard this: "My mother is really something. Isn't she afraid of people taking revenge on her?"

Li Pingwang complained a few more times: "She is a woman and she doesn't know anything, so she acted so recklessly." After saying that, he stood up.

"Dad, eat first before you leave." Li Hongyan called him.

Li Pingwang was in a hurry to find his wife Chen Xiaoying: "No, I'm going to eat at a small restaurant."

In the past, he thought that small restaurants were run by old women, so he felt uncomfortable sitting there. But now he thinks clearly that he is also the owner of a small restaurant, so why should he be polite?

After sending her father away, Li Hongyan turned around and started eating: "It's getting cold, eat quickly."

Zhao Faliang picked up the chopsticks and looked at Li Hongyan. He wanted to say something but didn't know what to say.

Anyway, he doesn't care about her family's affairs.

It’s none of my business.

Today is Monday and Li Yutong went to school.

The restaurant was open as usual. Early in the morning, starting from six o'clock, their restaurant was full of people eating. Those who didn't have seats many brought their own rice bowls to get their meals.

Li Pingwang rode his bicycle in the freezing cold weather, panting and sweating profusely. It was past ten o'clock when he finally arrived at the restaurant.

"I'm starving. Hurry up and give me a bun." He sat on a stool and asked Chen Xiaoying for food.

"The buns are sold out." Chen Xiaoying frowned. Why did he come again today?

Li Pingwang took a look at the big pot outside. There was still some vegetables left at the bottom of the pot. Because it had been cooked for a long time, the vegetables had become a little soft.

But Li Pingwang was a villager who had grown up in hardship, so he didn't despise her: "Xueyan, give me a bowl of the big pot of food and a steamed bun."

Zhao Xueyan looked at her mother-in-law Chen Xiaoying, and seeing that she did not refuse, she quickly served a large bowl and brought up the steamed buns.

Li Pingwang ate the food in big mouthfuls and said as he ate, "Mm-m-m, it's delicious. No wonder your business is so successful."

Chen Xiaoying ignored him and kept clearing away the dishes and chopsticks left by the guests on the table. When she was done, she was surprised to find that Li Pingwang, who used to require her to hand him the chopsticks when they ate at home, was now helping to wipe the table.

"What are you doing?"

"It's nothing. There is so much work to do. I'm just helping out," said Li Pingwang.

Chen Xiaoying didn't care about him anymore. Who knew what was wrong with him?

At this time, it was already past breakfast time. The employees hired by the store were cleaning the floor in front of the door and stacked up the stools and moved them in. Zhao Xueyan was sweeping the floor in the store, and Hao Cailing and the hourly workers were washing dishes and cleaning up in the kitchen.

Without the diners, the restaurant was so small that it was cleaned up quickly.

The two hourly workers went off work, and Zhao Xueyan and Hao Cailing continued to clean the kitchen.

Li Pingwang then sat on a stool to rest: "Doing business is tiring."

Hearing the tone of his voice, as if he treated this place as his own home, as if he was the boss here, Chen Xiaoying felt strange: "What are you doing here today?"

Li Pingwang felt that if he mentioned divorce right away, Chen Xiaoying might be scared, so he simply talked about the money first: "I just came to discuss something with you. I calculated that you have made a lot of money in the past few years of running a restaurant. Did you forget something?"

Chen Xiaoying was confused: "Forgot? What did I forget?"

She is only in her fifties now, with sharp ears, eyes and mind.

It was not the Alzheimer's disease that he contracted when he was in his sixties after falling a few times while feeding sheep, and he was always forgetting things.

"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't keep me in suspense."

Li Pingwang glanced towards the kitchen, then asked seriously, "Don't you always tell me about marital property, marital property? My marital property is all yours, and you asked me for it. Then why don't you give me half of your marital property?"

Chen Xiaoying was stunned. She looked at Li Pingwang several times with a surprised look before suddenly asking, "Did Li Hongyan teach you?"

Li Pingwang almost said his daughter Li Hongyan's name, and said impatiently: "Don't worry about who told me this, just tell me, isn't this the truth? You should give me half of the marital property."

For the first time, Chen Xiaoying felt that Li Pingwang could be so shameless.

"You want to divide the marital property with me?"

Li Pingwang nodded naturally: "Of course, you asked me for it at that time, have you forgotten?"

She thought that Chen Xiaoying, an old woman, had forgotten about the marital property. He looked at the small restaurant and said, "Speaking of which, I am also the owner of this small restaurant. I see that you are too busy here. Why not just fire the outsider in the kitchen and call Hongyan over to do the job."

"This way, we get the work done and get paid to our own people. It's the best of both worlds."

Li Pingwang never forgets to help his eldest daughter, and he himself thinks this is a very good idea.

Chen Xiaoying suddenly asked a completely irrelevant question: "Is Li Hongyan my biological daughter?"

Li Pingwang rolled his eyes when she asked him, "If he's not your biological child, then whose biological child could he be? Why are you asking this?"

"Since she is my biological daughter, people say that daughters usually side with their biological mothers. Why doesn't Li Hongyan side with me?" Chen Xiaoying didn't know how she felt right now.

The daughter she gave birth to was simply her enemy from her previous life, who came specifically to seek revenge on her in this life.
