In despair, Song Lao Er squatted on the ground, clutching his head and pulling out his hair.
I'm eyeing the money bag and about to run away!
Even Madam Gu was dumbfounded!
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Song Lao Er, and he remembered the rule of severing ties with his relatives. He was overjoyed.
"Severing ties... How do you want to sever ties? You must give me every penny of the property that is due to me."
Now that Song Zhenping has taken the initiative to sever ties with his relatives, it means that he will hand over his property to the clan for distribution!
It was all worth the trip!
Song Lizheng and Song Dekui also realized this and immediately said urgently, "No, we can't stop!"
Madam Gu then realized what was happening and beamed with joy: "Oh dear, I can get a large share of everything in Baolin Residence!"
Inside the Drunken Spring Pavilion, the utterly humiliated Young Master Lin lay sprawled on the bedding, his buttocks aching terribly, while a servant applied a cold compress to his swollen and red wound.
It's called an injury, but it's actually just a little red and swollen.
The yamen runners knew that Young Master Lin was from the prefectural city, and since Lord Jiang dared to call for a beating, they dared not actually do it.
Raise it high, then lower it gently; it only leaves a red mark, and it will heal in a day.
"I will kill them! They dared to use me as a stepping stone! They dared to step on my face to curry favor with that lowly servant..."
The thought of how he had been tricked by Song Lao Er and Song Lizheng and become the villain of the whole county made him so angry that he pounded his pillow.
The servant boy also said angrily, "Young Master, Jiang Feng is showing such disrespect to the Lin family. We should write a letter back and have the master go to Prefect Zhang at the yamen..."
"Shut up! Don't you think I've lost face enough? Give the order that this matter be kept quiet. Anyone who dares to mention going back to the manor, I'll sell them to slave traders!"
The servant's face turned pale, and he dared not speak again.
How could Young Master Lin not resent Jiang Feng? But if the news of his beating got back, the first to laugh at him would surely be his younger brothers from his own household, as well as the young masters from other families in the city.
Those people had harbored resentment towards him for a long time and were just waiting for an opportunity to kick him while he was down.
Before he could even calm down, a guard rushed over and whispered something in his ear.
The anger that had just surfaced on Young Master Lin's face froze on his expression: "You mean Song Zhenping wants to sever ties with his family?"
"Yes, Song Lao Er came to ask for your help, young master, and said he was willing to give half of his share of the property to you."
The guard spoke with a smile, knowing that his young master was extremely wealthy and would never care about such a small amount of silver.
Young Master Lin's eyes lit up. He waved for the servant who was applying a compress to his backside to leave, and said to the guard, "Have someone cooperate with that idiot, keep him hidden, find an opportunity to kill Song Liyun, and make it seem like the reason is the division of the inheritance!"
We can still make use of that idiot, Song Lao Er.
The guard nodded repeatedly and was about to leave when Young Master Lin stopped him again: "What do Huang Changsheng and the others mean now?"
The guard's face stiffened, and he lowered his head, saying, "Boss Huang said his mother in the countryside was celebrating her birthday, and she just left!"
"Damn it!" Young Master Lin slammed the teacup down again.
He had only lost face slightly, and these chefs were avoiding him like the plague.
Sever ties and divide the family property!
Song Lizheng pounded his chest: "Daping, you can't mention this! You have no relatives or friends here, you won't be able to live well here!"
Song Liyun glanced at Song Zhenping: "The village head is an old man with a rigid mind. He doesn't even realize that it was the Song family who bullied the Song siblings."
Song Zhenping said, "Village head, apart from Song Defu, no one bullies me."
Song Dekui, who was standing next to him, almost choked on his water when he heard this!
"Sigh! What will you do when you get married? You can't have no elders in your family when you get married. Who would want to marry you?"
Song, the village head, still wanted to persuade him.
Song Zhenping's face was as stiff as wood: "If you won't marry me, then I won't marry you!"
He's still resentful about being rejected by his fiancé and has no intention of getting married.
Song, the village head, was at his wit's end; this man was determined to sever ties with his relatives.
"As you know, if you want to leave the clan, you have to take back what the clan gave you..." At this point, Song Lizheng fell silent.
The three Song siblings carried only a roll of bedding and left clean.
What are the items belonging to the tribe? Three sets of clothes and a rolled-up quilt?
Others fear being separated from their clan and family because they have to return the land and houses to their clan.
These items under Da Ping's name were already in Song Lao's possession, and there was no question of them being returned.
As for Song Zhenping's businesses in Suijin Town, those need to be verified before they can be obtained.
Song Lizheng looked dejected: "So be it. A tree grows tall and branches out, a son grows up and leaves the family. It's better to sever ties."
The siblings, Da Ping and Da Ping, voluntarily became military households and refused to reveal any information, which meant they didn't want to acknowledge their kinship.
Besides, since Song Lao Er and Da Ping both ended up in court, any talk of them getting close to each other in the future is just empty words.
Unfortunately, Old Man Song married a spendthrift like Granny Gu, and in the end, he ruined his family.
Even if the agreement to sever ties is reached, it can fall apart when it comes to dividing the property.
Song Lao Er immediately demanded eight shops in Suijin Town, plus two hundred taels of silver.
When Young Master Lin was planning to target Tianxianglou, he thoroughly investigated Song Liyun's situation, including the shops, cardboard box factory, and food workshop under construction in Suijin Town.
The guards quickly informed Song Lao Er of the situation in a few words.
It was also said that of the hundred taels of silver that Tianxianglou earned each day, Song Liyun would receive half.
Song Lao Er's eyes lit up when he heard this. He immediately regretted it and felt a bit resentful towards Young Master Lin.
Since Song Liyun has so much money, why did I waste my time going to Baolin Residence to pick up those junk items when I first arrived in Suijin Town?
Why not just ask for a hundred taels of silver and give those things to her?
They'll live in Qili County again, enjoying a life of luxury thanks to their wealthy niece.
