The villagers sat around them while eating, waiting to see if they could finally split up the family business. Some even knelt down and begged Wang Ping to stop bullying Tian Xiaolan.
Eight hundred is not a small amount. The cabbage they sell is only 2.7 cents per pound. If you buy pork, you can buy 100 pounds! It is considered a huge amount for them!
"Wang Ping, you're obsessed with money. Even though she's not your child, she doesn't eat at your house. But when it's time to work, you bring her home and let her work for you for free! You're the most evil-hearted one!"
"It's not like I didn't feed her. Now I'm talking to her. I told you to take it and go but she refused. Now you act like a big shot! She's your child and you're talking nonsense! You gossip!" Wang Ping would not be influenced by them. She mentioned this amount because she was sure she couldn't come up with that much money right now. She would not let Tian Xiaolan, this cash cow, get out of her control.
"If I say eight hundred, it's eight hundred. If you can't pay it, then I'll owe you ten yuan a month in interest. When you pay it back, we'll split up!"
Seeing Wang Ping's condescending attitude, as if dividing the family property with her was alms, Tian Xiaolan's heart sank. She didn't want to feed her appetite any more, otherwise it would be difficult to get rid of her in the future. "I have no money, but I have my life. It's your choice!"
"At least six hundred. Write the IOU first." Wang Ping breathed a sigh of relief. It would be best if she couldn't come up with the money now. If she could, the price wouldn't be this high.
"Okay, seven hundred is seven hundred." Tian Xiaolan believed that with her own ability, she would be able to earn it in no time, so it would be impossible for her to keep giving her money.
After hearing her promise, everyone had all kinds of thoughts in mind.
Xing Yifei was also watching, and for some reason he felt an inexplicable urge to help Tian Xiaolan. He asked Chen Shaohui to find the captain and ask him to notarize the document.
Captain Lei Zhong had been working with them and was still holding a basin of rice. Chen Shaohui walked over to him and started chatting with him.
Tian Xiaolan had obviously thought of this problem as well. The division of property should be notarized by a relatively authoritative person in the village. There was no sign of the village chief, so the team leader Lei Zhong was more reliable because he worked diligently and always took the lead.
Tian Xiaolan said to Lei Zhong, who was still eating, "Captain Lei, can you come over and help us notarize it?"
"Of course, we can. We don't have pen and paper!" Lei Zhong didn't want to refuse her. She had always had a hard life, and it would be best if she could split up the family business. But this was the situation. How could they have these things while working?
"I have it!" Zhou Qiaoqiao took out a piece of paper and a pen from her pocket. It was her habit to carry a pen and paper with her to be prepared for any problems.
She handed the rice spoon to others, took the pen and paper and handed them to Lei Zhong.
Lei Zhong was still eating his meal when a pen was handed to him. He was so shocked that he put the basin on the ground, wiped the sweat on his hands on his clothes several times, and then took the pen from her.
"What are your requirements for dividing the family property? How do you want to divide it? Why doesn't your husband come out and say something?" Lei Zhong felt that she was being too frivolous and didn't even ask Tian Tiezhu.
A voice came from the corner, accompanied by streams of smoke. "Just listen to her. I have no objection."
Wang Ping couldn't wait any longer, as if a lot of money would flow into her pocket in the next second. "He doesn't have any objections, so hurry up and divide it up! You can't take anything from the house, and you don't get a share of the house either. It's all ours!"
Tian Xiaotong saw that she couldn't stop Wang Ping's decision, and the coward Tian Tiezhu didn't even say a word, but insisted on watching the family being divided up!
"Okay, go ahead and write!" Tian Xiaolan felt that what she said had no impact on her. This home was full of painful memories, and it was boring for her to stay here. She might as well go out and see the vast world.
Lei Zhong was a little confused. Why did Tian Xiaolan, the smart girl, act so stupid now? She didn't want anything, which was not a division of the family at all. It was simply a kick out of the house. Although he thought so, he still wrote the terms of division of the family. It was not the first time he did this. He finished it in a few strokes and waited for someone to sign.
After Tian Xiaolan finished signing, Wang Ping was still thinking about her IOU. What would she do if the little bitch refused to acknowledge her signature? "Print the IOU for me first, and then I'll sign it!"
While eating, Lei Zhong also heard their conversation, so he turned over another page and wrote the two big words "IOU" on it. He finished it in a few strokes. Wang Ping was watching by the side. As soon as he finished writing, the ink was not dry yet, so she pulled it over and looked at it against the sunlight. She found that the number was 700. Although she was illiterate, she could still recognize the numbers on the RMB. She looked at it but still couldn't understand it, so she asked Tian Xiao to look at it again, and handed it to Tian Xiaolan. The IOU would only take effect after she got it.
Tian Xiaolan took a closer look and saw that it was just an ordinary IOU. After she signed it, she passed it to Lei Zhong and said, "Give it to them after we sign the separation agreement!"
She didn't trust Wang Ping. She believed that Wang Ping would definitely take the paper and act like a rogue, saying that she would not split the family business. This was not something she could do.
Wang Ping took the paper and wanted to write, but she was stunned for several minutes and couldn't write anything. "Do you have to let me sign it?" She couldn't change someone else, she really couldn't write.
"You can ask your man to sign." Lei Zhong also saw her embarrassment and took the initiative to suggest.
Not to mention Tian Tiezhu, who has never been to school since he was a child and only knows how to smoke and drink. When he hears his name being called, he wishes he could find a piece of paper to stick in his head and never come out.
Tian Tiezhu looked around, hoping someone could help him, "I can't write!"
Lei Zhong said to him, "We don't have a seal either. You can use blood to get the same effect!"
Tian Tiezhu took his hand to his mouth and bit it, but there was no bleeding. Wang Ping couldn't wait any longer and didn't know what he was hesitating about. He still had a sickle in his hand for work, so he could just use it to cut it.
Wang Ping did it right away. Without warning, she slashed the back of Tian Tiezhu's hand with a sickle in her hand. A red line instantly appeared on the skin, and then blood beads seemed to be impatient to gushed out of the wound, one, two... Soon they gathered into a small stream, slowly flowing down the back of the hand, and formed a small pool of blood at the wrist.
He looked at his bleeding hand, his eyes widening instantly, and the muscles on his face twitched slightly in pain. A chill surged from the bottom of his heart. He could clearly feel the blood flowing on his hand, and the warm and sticky feeling made him feel dizzy.
He tried to cover the wound with his other hand, but blood continued to seep out from between his fingers and drip onto the ground, making a slight "tick-tick" sound. Every drop of blood seemed to be hitting his nerves.
He didn't expect that she would go to such lengths to divide the family business, and she kept pressing his bloody hand on the paper of division.
