"How would I know what to do?" Wei Baidao was also anxious.
Just when things were starting to look up on my end, trouble struck at home.
No, it's all that person in Beijing's city's fault. He's been enjoying all these years of luxury, and now that he's been found out, they'll have to live in constant fear.
Why should they? They didn't get any benefits, but bad things came knocking on their door.
"I want to sever ties with the Wei family. Yes, sever ties. My parents did this before I was even born. What does it have to do with me?"
Wei Baidao's mind went blank for a moment, then suddenly a thought struck him: That's right, he could sever ties.
Once he severs ties, he and the Wei family will no longer be considered family.
When that person from Beijing returns, it will have nothing to do with him anymore; he is innocent.
Wei Baidao's words stunned everyone present, and Wei Baide's eyes lit up when he heard them.
“Yes, sever ties. I want to sever ties too. This has nothing to do with me. It was my parents who did it. We didn’t know anything about it.”
Wei Baide and Wei Baidao were united again, which was rare for them.
The two hurriedly went inside to find paper and pen, wrote a statement severing their relationship, and then gave it to Huang Xiufen, who was already paralyzed, to press her fingerprint on.
He hurriedly went to find the brigade leader.
The captain shook his head as he looked at the certificate in front of him; even a fool could tell what those two were thinking.
This is because they're afraid of taking responsibility and want to sever ties with the Wei family.
It's true what they say, no one gets up early for nothing. When there's something to gain, they fight tooth and nail; when there's a problem, they run away faster than each other.
Just now, the team members were saying that since the Wei family is in this situation, they should give up the task of repairing the bridge.
He finally managed to persuade everyone, but then the Wei family jumped in again. If they weren't afraid of something really going wrong, how could the task of repairing the bridge have fallen to their family?
"Your family is in such a state, what's the point of severing ties? Besides you two brothers, is there anyone else in your family? Who are you severing ties with?"
The captain glared at them. Wei Changgen had been arrested, and Huang Xiufen was lying in bed. What was the point of severing ties?
“We don’t care, we’re severing ties. Look, my mother has already put her fingerprint on it, Captain. We’re all doing this voluntarily, you can’t stop us, can you?”
Wei Baide and Wei Baidao now just want a legitimate reason to sever all ties with the Wei family.
The brigade leader looked at the two men and knew they were determined, so he stamped their documents with the brigade's seal.
He knew perfectly well that if they really wanted revenge, even if they severed ties, it wouldn't matter; they were just deceiving themselves.
Wei Baidao and Wei Baide happily accepted the certificate, finally relieved. Now they had nothing to do with the Wei family and no longer had to fear retaliation.
Su Nianyou, who had been waiting at home, was also very happy to hear the news.
That's good. They've severed all ties. If her husband becomes successful in the future, none of these people will be able to benefit from it.
"Now that we've severed ties, it's time to divide up the family property. We're now two separate families."
After resolving this matter, Wei Baidao turned his attention to Wei Baide.
He killed two birds with one stone, which was a well-thought-out plan. Otherwise, Wei Baide would definitely have tried to take some of the benefits he gained from building the bridge.
Now that they've severed ties and separated their businesses, they're two separate families, and he and Wei Baide will have no further connection.
"Why should I? The task of repairing the bridge was originally mine, but you used tricks to get it. You think you can just push me out the door like that?"
Wei Baide stared at the man relentlessly; it turned out he was waiting for him there, and he wouldn't back down.
The two argued again about dividing the family property, and then they fought, smashing up the house once more.
The two men only stopped fighting when the bridge repairmen arrived at Wei Baidao's house.
"Comrade Wei, what are you doing?" The group of people arrived in high spirits, but they didn't expect to see such a scene.
The two were fighting tooth and nail, while a woman sat there calmly, motionless.
A few passersby occasionally walked by outside, but they didn't even glance at them. This family was quite an oddity in the village.
"Um... um, you're here! Come in and sit down, I'm sorry you had to see this." Wei Baidao quickly stopped what he was doing and welcomed the group in.
Wei Baide glanced at the group of people and noticed that they were all holding something and smelled the aroma of meat. He wondered where Wei Baide had met these people.
After thinking it over, he decided not to cause any more trouble. He couldn't afford to mess things up when there were benefits to be had. In any case, Wei Baidao had no chance of getting rid of him.
Wei Baidao led the group into his room, and Su Nianyou, who was standing to the side, also looked excited.
Her man is really successful; he's made so many friends in such a short time.
These people looked capable, and might even be officials or have connections. Nian Yousu also warmly entertained them.
"Alright, go wherever you want, don't get in the way." Wei Baidao just felt that Su Nianyou's fawning manner was embarrassing.
They had been made to feel inferior for no reason; he was their savior, and they had come to thank him.
He should put on the proper airs.
Su Nianyou wasn't angry at Wei Baidao's impatient look; it was indeed inconvenient for a woman like her to be here while a man was discussing business.
She obediently went out; as long as Wei Baidao was successful, she would enjoy the good life with him in the future.
Several people brought a lot of wine and food and talked loudly in the house until it was completely dark before they stopped.
“Brother Wei, look, several of our brothers are drunk. Could we let them stay here for the night and then we can go back to work together tomorrow?”
Everyone was completely drunk, except for one who was still somewhat sober, but even he couldn't speak clearly.
"It's no big deal. There's a house in my backyard, but there's no bed inside. You can make do on the floor for the night."
Wei Baidao was also dizzy, but he was still somewhat lucid and didn't mind that these people slept at his house for one night.
The group of people helped each other into the back room.
Su Nianyou stayed by their side, busy with everything, until the others had fallen asleep before she returned to her room.
She was about to ask Wei Baidao about the origins of these people when she saw him lying motionless on the bed, drunk.
With no other option, she tidied up the leftover food in the room. Seeing that there were still some scraps of meat left, she didn't mind and quickly stuffed them into her mouth.
How long has it been since she ate meat? She's almost forgotten what meat tastes like.
I was satisfied and went to bed only after finishing my meal and cleaning up. I really hope I can have delicious food every day from now on.
Wei Baidao was eating meat, and she could have some soup too. Su Nianyou thought about this wonderful idea and was smiling even in her sleep.
The Yangliu Brigade was quiet at night when a few people who should have been sleeping in the backyard opened their eyes.
