"Old man, we are here to buy land."

The old man looked a little frail, as if he was worrying too much.

"Come in and talk." The old man's voice was also very old and revealed a heaviness.

"Old man, you must sell those lands!" the man shouted before leaving.

Who is this person? The old man's son? Su Mu was puzzled.

The old man poured a cup of tea for Su Mu and the other man.

"Please drink tea."

"Thank you, old man. I heard you were going to sell the land?"

"Oh, I'm sorry to embarrass you, but the man outside is my son." Perhaps seeing that the two of them were a little worried, the old man explained.

"There's nothing wrong with the field. It's just that the family is unlucky."

The old man looked heartbroken.

"My children and grandchildren have been quarreling over this little bit of property, scheming against each other, causing big problems time and time again, and they even ignore me, their old father."

"When I was young, I always worked hard for my family and gave them the best. I spoiled them too much and never expected that they would develop such personalities."

The old man shook his head and sighed.

"I don't want them to continue fighting. Let's split up and let them live the rest of their lives on their own. I won't care anymore."

"That piece of land is very good, but it's a little far from the capital, so I plan to sell it. I'll keep some money to buy a small yard for myself. I won't care about them anymore."

The two of them felt uncomfortable after hearing this.

"I have 30 mu of land on the flat land, of which about 10 mu are good land, and the rest are second- and third-grade land. There are also about mu of mountainous land and sandy land on the hillside."

“How much do you need to buy?”

Su Mu and Su Dingguo looked at each other and took them all down!

"Old man, how much would it cost if we bought them all?"

The old man was also shocked. He thought they were only buying a few acres. Many people came to ask about it, and wanted to buy two or three acres. He didn't sell four or five acres either.

"Really? Buy them all?" the old man asked again in disbelief.

"Yes, old man, please name a price."

The old man was also straightforward, "If you buy all of them, it will be 150 taels for you!"

The old man thought of dividing his remaining property among his children, and living on his own with the 150 taels, so that he could spend his later years comfortably.

Su Mu also happily paid the money and went to the government office to sign a contract together.

When he opened the door, he saw several people standing outside. Among them was the man who had just brought them in, so these should be his children.

"Old man, have you sold the land?" the man said happily.

"Don't call me dad like that." A man scolded the man.

"Dad, are we going to the government office to sign the deed now?" He looked at Sumu and the other man calmly, observing whether they could afford to buy those fields.

The people behind also asked various questions.

Looking at this scene, although the old man had hardened his heart and stopped asking questions, he still felt uncomfortable.

As soon as he went out, he was only concerned about whether the fields had been sold. The old man was completely disappointed, and one idea became more and more firm.

"Let's go, let's go to the government office to sign the deed."

The old man led the way towards the government office, and his body suddenly straightened up with some determination, as if he had thrown something down.

When they arrived at the government office, they signed a deed and the ownership of the land was transferred, and the land completely belonged to Sumu and his people.

Just as Su Mu and Su Dingguo turned to leave, they heard the old man ask, "Sir, I want to sign a divorce letter."

Su Mu looked at the old man in astonishment. He didn't expect that the old man could make such a decision.

Signing the severance agreement in government offices meant that the two no longer had any relationship at all.

In Su Mu's opinion, it was a good thing for the old man to sign the contract. He had money and got rid of these people.

Judging from the faces of these people, they will not be very kind to the old man in the future. Maybe the old man will not be able to keep the money.

But in the eyes of others, this is a somewhat immoral behavior, and a letter of severance cannot stop the gossip.

It's so bold, a desperate move.

"Dad! No! How can you sign the agreement?"

Several children were crying and wailing.

"We are your children! Why do you have to do this?"

The officer was also at a loss as to what to do when he saw this scene. "How about you give it some thought, old man?"

"I figured it out."

It was not the first or second time that I heard my daughter-in-law calling me an old fool and plotting to take my property.

"Dad! You can't abandon us!"

A group of people were crying with tears and snot.

The old man looked at these people crying and was not shaken at all. He just said one sentence.

"Sign the severance agreement and we'll split up. Otherwise, I'll give my property to someone else."

Several people stopped crying immediately.

Tsk, Su Mu laughed. These people were crying so sadly just now, and I thought they still had some conscience and a trace of filial piety. I didn't expect that they had no conscience at all.

"Where is the money from selling the land?" one of them asked cautiously.

"The rest of the property will be divided among you, and the money from selling the land will belong to me."

Seeing that a few people wanted to speak, the old man interrupted them quickly, saying that he really didn't want to see them anymore.

"If you want to divide even the last bit of money, then we won't split up." The old man looked disappointed.

"Divide, divide, divide among us. Just keep Dad's money for yourself. Don't pay attention to what he says."

"Who are you talking about! Don't you want the old man's money? You are the only one with a conscience who pretends to be so." The man said disdainfully.

When the officials saw this, they all understood why the old man insisted on signing the severance letter.

After preparing the severance agreement, he asked everyone, "Are you ready to sign the severance agreement?"

The old man stepped forward to sign his name, and everyone else also stepped forward to sign their names.

The pampering in youth and the forbearance in old age are all let go at this time. Let them go and let yourself go.

The old man didn't even look at the crowd, he turned around and left resolutely.

The child looked at everyone with confused eyes, not understanding what the adults were doing.

The child secretly caught up with the old man where no one could see.

Quietly tugging at the old man's trouser leg, he looked up and asked, "Are you no longer my grandfather?"

The child had tears in his eyes. This grandfather cared about him the most.

"Can I still play with you?"

The old man burst into tears. He didn't expect that there was someone in this family who cared about him.

The old man touched the child's face with his rough hands and said, "You can come and play with me."

The child held the old man's hand with his little hand, rubbed his face against the old man's big hand, and looked happy, "Then I will come to see you secretly in the future."

The child also knew that if he came to see his grandfather, his family would definitely stop him.

"Hey! Okay, then grandpa will prepare some candy for you."

After the old man left, the child sneaked back to the adults, waved to the old man, and seemed to say, "Grandpa, you are the best!"

Su Mu couldn't help but want to cry. He didn't expect the final outcome to be like this.

It must be very difficult for this child to live in such a family. I hope he doesn't grow up to be a bad person.

Su Mu and Su Dingguo both sighed. This ending was pretty good.
