Yin Yunjie glanced at each family member and said, "Supporting parents is the common responsibility of all children. I am willing to pay ten yuan for each person, including my eldest and second brothers."
"Why!" These three words, like thunder, broke the brief calm.
Xie Di's emotions exploded like a lit firecracker, completely disregarding the decency and reserve she had maintained in the past.
"Yin Yunjie, you're truly capable! Why should we be implicated in the division of the family? You've been away from home for years, and we've taken care of our parents' daily needs, big and small. If you want to pay us, you should owe us!"
Zhou Yuan struggled to break free from Yin Lin's obstruction and joined the heated exchange of words. "Yes, Third Brother, you're promising and well-off, able to come up with so much money, but you also have to consider our situation! Your Second Brother isn't as capable as you, and your revealing of your hand now is truly chilling!"
Xu Qinghe, who was watching the situation from the side, saw that both sisters-in-law had already made their positions clear, and it seemed inappropriate for him to remain silent.
So, she spoke cautiously, "Sisters-in-law, we're not being unreasonable. This was clearly the old man's idea. The five dollars a month we agreed on was reasonable. It was the old man himself who was dissatisfied. How can he put the blame on us?"
As she spoke, she secretly cast a meaningful glance at Mr. Yin.
The meaning in that look was obvious - the root of the problem did not lie with them.
Old Man Yin's face was gloomy and uncertain: "Why are you, a woman, butting in when I'm talking? You don't have the right to speak here."
Xu Qinghe was so frightened by this sudden scolding that her body froze. Tears quickly filled her eyes, glittering and clear as if they would burst out at any moment. "But...but Auntie and Second Auntie were talking just now. I really can't stand seeing Yin Yunjie being treated like this..."
Before he could finish his words, tears of grievance began to roll down his face like pearls from a broken string.
Rugged men like Ni Yuan standing nearby witnessed this scene.
Everyone couldn't help but feel that Old Man Yin's approach was too harsh.
The new siblings are being bullied like this. If this continues and the family is not divided, won’t they suffer in the future?
Yin Yunjie knew exactly what Xu Qinghe was up to. Although he found it amusing, he still stood firmly in front of her and said sternly to his father, Old Man Yin, "Dad, don't talk about anything else. All I can give you is five dollars a month. If you want more, my eldest brother and I should share the burden. There are three sons in the family, why do I have to shoulder the burden of support alone?"
Qin Xunfu took advantage of the opportunity and agreed, "Yeah, that's not right!"
Old man Yin was so angry that he couldn't speak for a moment.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Xie Di quickly looked for help to Old Lady Yin who was not far away.
But Old Lady Yin remained silent, feeling helpless.
Xie Di had no choice but to take charge herself: "Then it's five dollars a month, but you have to promise to take care of our Xiangyang in the future. You are his uncle, and taking care of your nephew is your responsibility, a lifelong responsibility!"
Xu Qinghe was surprised when he heard this, and his face was full of disbelief.
This request is really unheard of!
Before she could express her opinion, the crowd of onlookers had already started whispering, "Oh, Xie Di is so shameless! How can she let her brother-in-law help raise the child?"
"That's right, this face is thicker than the city wall!"
Xu Qinghe pretended to be confused and turned to ask Yin Yunjie, "You...Xiangyang is...you and your sister-in-law's child?"
Yin Yunjie laughed in his heart, this girl is really brave, but he did not respond.
There was just a playful smile on the corner of his mouth.
"What nonsense are you talking about! I'm going to tear your mouth apart today!"
When Xie Di heard this, she immediately flew into a rage and was about to rush forward to teach Xu Qinghe a lesson.
But Qin Xunfu stepped in between them and sternly warned them, "Don't act rashly. If you dare to touch me, it will be an assault on a police officer. You will bear the consequences yourself. You can't afford it!"
This time, the situation became even more tense and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
As soon as Xie Di heard these words, her body wanted to resist instinctively, but it was as if she had been electrocuted and she froze in place.
Xie Di, who was being held down tightly, saw that Xu Qinghe's momentum was becoming more and more fierce.
The other party's voice was like a sharp dagger, piercing the most sensitive soft spot in the Yin family's hearts.
"Since Yin Xiangyang is not Yin Yunjie's biological son, why should Yin Yunjie be asked to take on the responsibility of raising him? Big brother and sister-in-law, you are both strong and healthy, how can you just give birth to a child without raising it?"
Xu Qinghe spoke rapidly, "Sister-in-law, you may not understand. During Yin Yunjie's time in the army, every penny he sent home was earned at the risk of his life... Alas, even if I tell you, you might not understand. The heartache I feel for my man is just like how you feel for my brother. You don't want to see him overworked to support his own children. I feel the same way. I feel bad that my man has to raise a child for someone else! I sincerely hope you can put yourself in his shoes and understand."
The crowd fell into silence, with waves of turmoil surging in everyone's heart. When did Xu Qinghe become so eloquent?
Her little mouth is like a machine gun, smooth and sharp.
She was not shy at all, and every word she said was about her love for the man, which made the listeners blush involuntarily, and they felt both envious and a little embarrassed!
And Yin Yunjie's lips curled up slightly, and a barely perceptible smile quietly blossomed.
In the end, despite the Yin family's reluctance, the fate of the family separation was irreversible.
Yin Yunjie seemed extremely determined and not only voluntarily gave up everything of the Yin family.
He also claimed that he could leave tonight and move to Xu Qinghe's home.
Xu Qinghe was surprised, but at the same time, a warm feeling surged in his heart. It turned out that he had been preparing for this silently for a long time.
Those daily necessities had already been quietly purchased at her residence, and only a few simple furnishings in his bedroom remained at Yin's house.
Everyone was stunned by Yin Yunjie's resolute decision.
He wanted to persuade him to stay, but then he thought about how the Yin family had relied on Yin Yunjie's hard work to support it for many years.
Especially since Xie Di and his wife had nothing to do and wanted Yin Yunjie to raise the mentally retarded child.
He usually relied on Yin Yunjie's ability to act tyrannically in the village and offended many people.
At this moment, no one dared to speak first to persuade.
"It's really unfortunate for our family to have raised such a rebellious son!"
Old man Yin looked around and saw that no one responded, so he could only sigh heavily to himself.
He sat down on the dusty ground, his whole body emitting a strong sense of loneliness and fatigue.
There was silence at the scene, and Old Lady Yin quickly wiped the corners of her eyes.
Trying hard to act pitiful in an attempt to gain sympathy.
