Xiao Wenjing nodded, then sighed deeply: "Yes, let's split the family property then. I just didn't expect your grandmother to be so biased."
“Since you know she’s biased, don’t be foolish anymore. Even if Second Uncle really becomes an official, the old lady won’t let him help us. Don’t be silly anymore.” Shen Yunsheng really hoped that her father-in-law would stand up for himself as soon as possible.
“Jingchuan’s family, your...your grandmother and your second uncle are definitely not that kind of people.” Xiao Wenjing subconsciously defended his mother and brother.
"Father, please stop explaining for them. You should go back and rest!"
Shen Yunsheng didn't want to listen to her father-in-law's nonsense anymore, so she greeted him and started folding clothes for Xiao Jingchuan.
When Xiao Wenjing saw that his daughter-in-law was ignoring him, he couldn't help but mutter to himself.
“Jingchuan’s son, you really need to change your fiery temper. If it were anyone else, they would have dealt with you long ago.”
"Dad! I'd love for you to deal with me soon, so I'll have an excuse to leave your son."
Shen Yunsheng grinned mischievously. Seeing that her father-in-law still wasn't planning to leave, she couldn't help but retort a couple more times.
"Father! Instead of keeping a close eye on me, you should think about asking for more money and land when we divide the family property!"
Xiao Wenjing shook his head helplessly, glared at Chen Yunsheng, and then turned and left the room.
Shen Yunsheng watched her father-in-law's retreating figure and sighed inwardly. She hoped that her father-in-law could face reality as soon as possible and stop holding her back.
Xiao Jingchuan, who was lying in bed, sat up after his father left.
"My wife, you have suffered injustice today. I will make it up to you properly after we separate our households."
"Hey! As long as I can scold our dad awake, I don't mind suffering a little grievance."
Shen Yunsheng walked to the bedside, propped up the pillow, and let Xiao Jingchuan lean against it.
"What are your plans regarding the division of the family property?"
Shen Yunsheng made sure no one was squatting in the corner outside before she started talking to Xiao Jingchuan.
“I think dividing the family property is a good thing. As long as the old lady agrees to the division, I’m willing to leave with nothing.” Xiao Jingchuan gently held his wife’s hands. He needed her to take the lead in dividing the family property. His father was weak-willed and would definitely not dare to make any demands.
Shen Yunsheng nodded. "That's what I think too. However, we have to be wary of the old lady; she's no pushover."
“Yes, I know.” Xiao Jingchuan’s expression was very serious. “When the family is divided, you should ask the old lady for the land and try your best to fight for the benefits that your father deserves.”
“I will definitely not let them take advantage of me. I can give them the house, but I must have the land.”
Shen Yunsheng had long coveted the mountainous land near Baihua Mountain. She could do without fertile fields, but she absolutely needed the mountainous land.
Xiao Jingchuan was secretly surprised. His thoughts coincided with his wife's. Although Baihua Mountain was inconspicuous at the moment, it was rich in natural resources. In his previous life, Xiao Hongbin accidentally discovered hot springs in the mountains and built a hot spring resort on Baihua Mountain, making a lot of money.
“My lord, Baihua Mountain is a treasure land with auspicious feng shui. We want the land of Baihua Mountain.”
“If you only want the land in Baihua Mountain, my dad will definitely disagree.”
Shen Yunsheng couldn't help but retort, "Do you think your father's opinion matters?"
Xiao Jingchuan frowned slightly. His father's opinion was indeed unimportant. That old poisonous woman would only try to take advantage of him and would never listen to his advice.
"Don't worry! We definitely won't lose out by taking the mountain land. I accidentally discovered that there is hot water underground when I was doing farm work before."
Shen Yunsheng was interested in Baihua Mountain not only because it was suitable for building a summer resort, but also because it was likely to have hot springs, and she didn't want to miss the opportunity to make a fortune.
Xiao Jingchuan looked at his wife with affection, "You can decide on the division of the family property. If we only want the land in Baihua Mountain, the old lady will definitely agree."
"Since you agree with my decision, I will try my best to achieve it."
Xiao Jingchuan hummed in agreement and then said, "Mother has been out for quite a while. Go and check on her."
Shen Yunsheng had the same idea. She removed Xiao Jingchuan's hand and got up to leave.
