Chapter 12



Hearing this, Lao Liu suddenly shuddered.

I didn't expect that Li 녊 would speak up for that bitch Jian Xiu like this.

Thinking of the dozens of taels he had saved, Old Liu looked at Jian Xiu hatefully again.

Seeing that Old Man Zhang didn't speak, Zhang Wenyuan continued, "Just talking about your Zhang family's fertile land, there are already more than ten acres. What's more, you have chickens, ducks, pigs, and other things, as well as the money you saved. These should all be gone!"

"How can I save any money? Datou is studying in the county school. You know that your grandson is also studying there. It's not enough to pay more than ten or twenty taels every year. There are also pens, ink, paper and inkstone. They are all expenses."

"Yes, yes, look at our family. Some are old, some are sick, and we have to spend a lot every day. Do you think we have any money left? If Zirong is in this state, I don't know where to find the money to go to the county town."

Old Liu wiped away his tears and said pitifully.

Hearing this, Fang Xiao, who was squatting beside Zhang Zirong, added fuel to the fire and said, "Mom, what should we do here, Zirong? If there is no money, it will be useless even if I go to the county town."

Zhang Wenyuan: “….” It is true that even an honest judge cannot judge family affairs.

Jian Xiu, who had just finished eating the duck, also knew that Zhang Wenyuan was in trouble, and was even more aware of her own situation. It was impossible for her to get a penny from Old Liu.

So he wiped his mouth and said to Li, "Uncle Li, I don't ask them to give me much money. I just want the thatched cottage at the end of the village and the land. How about that?"

Jian Xiu calculated that the end of the village was the most suitable place for her family of five.

The most important thing is that the piece of paper is worthless in the eyes of everyone.

It's nothing but empty talk. To put it bluntly, it's just given away for free and there's nothing much to it from others.

But she is different. She has a supermarket, which makes things much more convenient for her.

The most important thing is that the place is quiet and spacious.

She has always liked quietness, and she really doesn't like the hustle and bustle in the village.

As the saying goes, live by the mountain and eat by the mountain. Living at the end of the village is closer to the bottom of the mountain, so it is much more convenient for her to go up or down the mountain.

The most important thing is that the land there is worthless, and it is just a shabby house built by the Zhang family.

But no one had lived there for many years, and it was in a dilapidated state.

But it doesn't matter. With a little bit of renovation, it will be at least ten or a hundred times better than this small dark room.

After hearing Jian Xiu's words, Zhang Wenyuan felt even more distressed.

He knew very well what the end of the village was. Ordinary people would not want to live there.

"Wife Zixuan, that place is remote. If you, a woman, take Zixuan with you, nothing will happen to you and no one will know." Zhang Wenyuan said distressedly.

"Don't worry, Uncle Li. If I stay here, I will be a nuisance to my father and mother. Now that we have separated, they should be more relieved."

Having said that, Jian Xiu seemed to remember something and continued:

"If anything happens, I can come back to see my parents. Besides, we can't live without any money as a family of five!"

Hearing this, Lao Liu was immediately shocked.

He turned his head to look at Old Man Zhang, only to see that after hearing what Jian Xiu said, Old Man Zhang was also in deep thought.

Looking at his expression, Lao Liu knew that his thoughts were the same as his own.

Thinking of this, Lao Liu was completely relieved.

After waiting for a while and seeing that his wife hadn't spoken, Lao Liu finally couldn't help but speak:

"While I'm here, I might as well make it clear. It was your fourth room who first proposed the separation of the family. Whatever happens in the future has nothing to do with us. Don't accuse us of being heartless and ungrateful. Think about what you have done in the past few days. Which one of them is human? Even if we forgive your fourth room, when Zirong wakes up, he will not let you go."

"Old Liu, what do you mean by this?" Zhang Wenyuan was the first to ask.

"My meaning is very clear. Since the family has been divided, then the fourth branch of the family naturally has nothing to do with our Zhang family. In the future, whether the fourth branch of the family is rich or poor, it has nothing to do with us."

Hearing this, Zhang Wenyuan pointed his index finger at Lao Liu and said, "You...you..."

But for a moment, he really didn't know what to say.

I was so angry that I couldn't speak.

Then he turned his head to look at the old man Zhang who was holding a pipe in his mouth and said, "Old Zhang, tell me, do you mean the same thing?"

Hearing this, Old Man Zhang put down the pipe in his hand and said:

"It was indeed the fourth family who first proposed the separation, and we did not force them. In the past two days, Jian Xiu not only injured her mother-in-law, but also injured the eldest brother. The chickens, ducks and pigs at home were all messed up. Tell me, do I, Zhang Dashan, dare to accept such a daughter-in-law?"

"If you don't want your daughter-in-law, what about Zixuan? That child is your own child, how can you not want him?" Li asked again.

"Zixuan? Is he embarrassed? He didn't say a word when his wife hit her mother-in-law. These past two days I saw him eating the food his wife made with gusto. Ask him if he ever thought about us parents at that time?"

Old man Zhang said in an orderly manner.

The implication is that he said it was obvious to all.

After hearing this, Zhang Wenyuan was speechless.

Seeing this, Jian Xiu, who had been silent the whole time, pretended to be stupid and asked, "Dad, what do you mean by that? Don't you want anyone from our fourth room anymore?"

"Weren't you the one who first proposed the separation? Why are you not agreeing now?"

"I just said to divide the family, I didn't say anything else, but from what Dad and Mom said just now, it seems that they don't want to separate our four rooms."

Jian Xiu said with an anxious look on her face.

"You did such a treasonous thing, and you still want to get our forgiveness. Do you really think our Zhang family is so easy to bully?"

"Dad, since you said so, I, Jian Xiu, am not the kind of person who would shamelessly flatter others. As long as you give me the land behind the village, my fourth branch will never bother your Zhang family in the future. Even if we die there, it has nothing to do with you."

Jian Xiu said in an angry tone. In fact, my heart was already blossoming with joy.

"There is no evidence without words!" Old man Zhang pondered for a moment and spoke again.

"Dad, what do you mean?"

"It's easy to say things, but if something happens and they come to me again, it will be bad if everyone in the village knows about it. I don't want to be the target of any gossip."
