"Alright! But I'm afraid I'll drag you into this..." Su Jingxuan looked at Luo Yunhe apologetically, his heart filled with guilt.
Hearing this, Luo Yunhe quickly wiped away her tears and said firmly, "Husband, it's alright, I'm not afraid of hardship. As long as I can get away from this family of vampires, I'll do anything!" She clenched her fists, her eyes shining with determination.
“Yes, separate the family. Once we separate, we will never have any contact with them again…” Luo Yunhe’s words made Su Jingxuan make up his mind.
After obtaining Su Jingxuan's consent, Luo Yunhe quickly wiped away her tears and had the people around her carry Su Jingxuan to the courtyard.
At this moment, the Su family was still scolding Su Shan and Su Chenshi. When they saw Su Jingxuan being carried out, they finally turned their attention to him. Seeing his body covered in wounds, none of them dared to utter a sound.
"Su Shan, Su Chenshi, today we are separating from you! Since the rest of the Su family are here, let's get this over with together!" Luo Yunhe looked at each of them with a firm gaze, her voice filled with unwavering determination.
The Su family members also looked grim, harboring resentment towards Su Shan and Su Chenshi for their ruthless actions.
I'm also annoyed that the wife I bought is so ruthless.
Especially with so many people outside, his direct proposal to split the family business was practically a slap in their face.
"Break up! Stop torturing this young couple!"
"You've already gone to such lengths to be ruthless. If this family isn't separated, I don't know what else you're planning to do!"
"That's right. If Su Chenshi assaults someone and it gets reported to the authorities, she could face a beating and imprisonment..."
"Jingxuan, what do you think?" The eldest son of the Su family looked at Su Jingxuan.
Luo Yunhe held his hand tightly, giving him strength.
Su Jingxuan glanced at everyone present, and finally fixed his gaze on Su Shan and Su Chenshi. When their eyes met Su Jingxuan's, they immediately looked away, clearly feeling guilty.
"Uncle, you taught me from a young age that I must always value relationships and be loyal, especially to be filial to my parents!"
From a young age, I have been doing what you said, but what have I gotten in return?
My parents' prejudice, curses, and harsh treatment of me. They only quieted down a little during the past month or so, when my wife was around. They cursed my wife and secretly wanted to sell her to a cripple in the next village. Even my current injuries are all because of my mother.
Human hearts are made of flesh and blood; a cold heart doesn't form in a day. Therefore, I don't expect my parents to be exceptionally good to me, but at least they shouldn't have any intention of harming me.
I agree with my wife's request to separate the family property!
I used to not have money to give to my family, but I also have a share of their land. I don't fight with them over the house either.
However, after we are separated, land, food, and silver are indispensable.
After all, he caused this injury himself, and I have witnesses. If we go to the authorities, I might have to ask for even more evidence!
"You...no way!" Upon hearing that she was being asked for money, Madam Su immediately objected, jumping out and glaring fiercely at Su Jingxuan.
"Don't even think about asking me for money. Let me tell you, even if you want to split up the family today, Su Jinxuan, I won't give you a single penny."
I raised you all these years, what's wrong with giving me some money?
If you want to separate from the family, you can get out yourself. Nobody's stopping you...
"Shut up!" After glaring fiercely at Su Chenshi with a frown, she turned her gaze to Su Jingxuan.
"How much money do you want? No matter what, your parents raised you with great difficulty, so you should be understanding of their hardships!"
Su Jingxuan gave a cold laugh, looking at the Su family members. His eyes seemed to tell them that he seemed to know everything, but the same look made each member of the Su family feel a little guilty.
“Thirty taels of silver, four mu of land, and twenty dan of grain!” Su Jingxuan said.
"You damned devil, you're practically killing me! You're such an ingrate, I've raised you for nothing all these years..."
"Brother, how could you..."
"Shut up, Su Ruyi! If you utter another word, I'll tear your mouth off right now!" Luo Yunhe glared at her.
Upon meeting Luo Yunhe's fierce gaze, Su Ruyi quickly hid in the crowd, daring not to utter another sound.
"Third brother, third sister-in-law, give it to him!"
“Brother, four mu of land, 20 dan of grain, 30 taels of silver! Where am I supposed to get all that stuff for him? I wouldn’t be worth that much even if I were sold…”
"Wife, it seems they don't want to separate the family. Since they don't want to separate, then we'll just stay here obediently."
"Then I'll have to ask my second brother's wife to move out!" Su Jingxuan didn't want to argue any further.
Luo Yunhe could tell that if she didn't act tough today, it would be difficult to get what she wanted. Her husband's calm demeanor meant he must already have a plan.
"Fine! We won't separate then. Anyway, your leg is injured now, so you can't go out to earn money. Just stay at home and I'll take care of you!"
"No, you have to get out. That's a room reserved for my son. What right do you have to stay there?"
"Su Jingxing, you're a good-for-nothing! I can't live with you anymore!" Zhang Lingling said, turning to leave.
"Wife, please stop! Father, Mother, what are you doing? My brother's leg is already like this. Give him whatever he wants."
"If that's how you're going to treat me, then I'll never come back. Just pretend you don't have a son like me!"
Upon hearing this, Madam Su immediately stopped her: "No, son, stop Lingling..."
"Sister-in-law, are we going to divide this family or not? If we're going to divide it, we'd better do it now. If not, we're leaving!" The other members of the Su family also knew that Su Shan and Su Chenshi were acting dishonestly in this matter.
They also didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing.
"Divide it up! Divide it up! They want far too much: two acres of land, ten taels of silver, and ten dan of grain. This is the most I can offer!"
“Alright, honey, let’s go inside. I heard that some people from the capital recently came to town, saying they want to investigate a robbery case from over ten years ago…”
Su Jingxuan spoke slowly, glancing at the other members of the Su family with a strange look in his eyes.
Upon hearing this, Boss Su's pupils dilated.
Su Lao Er and Su Shan didn't fare much better either.
At this moment, they were all very flustered, wondering why Su Jingxuan knew about this.
"I...I agree. Four mu of land, thirty taels of silver, and twenty dan of grain!" Su Shan's voice trembled as he said these words.
The younger generation of the Su family did not understand why their third uncle would immediately agree to the division of the family business based on just one sentence.
