Seeing the two troublemakers coming to make trouble again, Wen Qingcheng took two steps at a time and ran out.

"What are you doing? Are you jealous of others who have meat to eat? If you have the ability, go and get a camphor tree. There are more than one on the mountain. And you are still going out and saying that you can't tell the difference between inside and outside. Do you think others are laughing at you or at us?"

As soon as Wen Qingcheng finished speaking, the Wen family members were stunned and looked at Wen Qingcheng in disbelief, wondering if the strange and sharp voice just now came from Wen Qingcheng, the mute who had been unable to fart since childhood?

"You...you can speak now?" Zhang Sufen was so surprised that her eyes almost popped out. It was as rare for a mute to speak as it was for a cast-iron tree to bloom.

Wen Yufeng also frowned and stared at Wen Qingcheng, thinking: How is it possible that this money-losing guy can be so lucky?

"You're becoming a robber just for a few bites of meat. You're robbing in broad daylight." Wen Qingcheng protected Zicheng behind her.

"We are not greedy for your little piece of meat. You are the younger generation. Now that you have something good, don't you know how to respect your elders? Even if you don't take us aunts seriously, it was not easy for your grandma to raise your father and marry him off. She took care of you from head to toe." Zhao Chunhua was quick-witted, and she spoke a lot like frying beans.

"Over the years, my mother has been doing laundry and sewing for others, and she has always given all her earnings to the old lady. She only keeps two out of ten cents, and she eats leftovers. You are so filial, why don't you take out your private money to honor the old lady?"

"Oh, how dare you shamelessly come here to ask for things? I've never seen such a shameless person."

Zhao Chunhua and Zhang Sufen's faces turned red with anger. Zhao Chunhua thought to herself: What a sharp tongue! I didn't expect that this dumb man, who couldn't even fart when beaten with three sticks, could speak like a knife.

"You little bitch, who are you calling shameless? Who are you calling shameless?" Zhang Sufen was devastated and jumped in anger.

Ye Xiuying really didn't want to be hurt by such mean words. She was originally timid and taciturn, but she shouted loudly for the first time: "Sister-in-law, Qingcheng is a child. If you have anything to say, come to me. All this time, you complained that my husband was a burden to you because of his studies, as if my husband was responsible for our poverty."

"Those people in the village who studied, what did they learn? They were so poor that they couldn't even afford to eat, and they still refused to work in the fields. The second brother was just lazy, and now, all those people who studied have become useless." Zhao Chunhua knew how to poke at people's sore spots.

Ye Xiuying thought of her husband's whereabouts being unknown, and perhaps even his body being untraceable after his death. Her nose suddenly felt sore and tears welled up in her eyes.

Wen Qingcheng stepped forward and said coldly, "Wait until uncle and uncle come back, and we will solve the problem together and separate. This way, you won't feel that we are a burden to you. Whether we are rich or poor in the future has nothing to do with you."

"Yes, let's split up!" In fact, Ye Xiuying had had the idea of ​​splitting up the family since the day Wen Qingcheng was sold to Feng Tuzi. However, she considered that they would have no house to live in after the split up, and she was terminally ill and powerless. Now that she has recovered from her illness and Qingcheng can speak, they can earn money with their own hands, and Chuyi is also strong enough, so it is no problem for him to support the family.

Zhao Chunhua and Zhang Sufen exchanged glances, and Zhao Chunhua said, "Second sister-in-law, you'd better think it over. Whether you split the property or not, we two have no say in it."

In fact, they didn't want the second family to be separated. They saw that Ye Xiuying was dying and couldn't do any work, so she couldn't make money for them. In addition, Wen Zicheng was only six years old and couldn't even be considered a half-labor force. They had to support him, and in the future the old lady would have to buy him a house and marry him off, which was a big expense.

Wen Qingcheng, this money-loser, finally sold three taels of silver, but ran away. Not only did they not make any money, they even lost money. It was really unlucky.

Now that Ye Xiuying has recovered from her illness, if things could be like in the early years, with her earning money outside and Wen Qingcheng cooking at home, doing all the dirty and tiring work at home, and with a silly Chuyi who could be used like an animal, it would be better for them not to separate the family.

"If you can't make the decision, then find someone who can." After Wen Qingcheng said this, he helped Ye Xiuying back to the room.

In the afternoon, Wen Lao Da and Wen Lao San came back. As soon as they entered the door, Zhao Chunhua twisted her butt and ran to Wen Lao San and whispered in his ear.

After hearing this, Wen Lao San glanced at Wen Qingcheng's room and said, "Just divide it."

Boss Wen also heard what Zhao Chunhua said. He wiped the sweat off his face and said, "Did Zicheng's mother say that herself?"

Zhao Chunhua whispered, "From what she said, I'm afraid it's not a real division, she's just trying to scare people. The fool went to cut down the camphor tree and made them so proud that they thought they could eat it forever."

Over the years, Ye Xiuying has been weak-willed and has always been bullied by Old Lady Wen and her two sisters-in-law. I remember that once the sisters-in-law had a fight, Zhang Sufen held Ye Xiuying down and Zhao Chunhua hit her, but she didn't dare to fight back. Why would she be so tough and want to divide the family business now?

"Given her cowardly look, I don't believe she dares to divide the family. Even if she divides the family, what can her stupid son-in-law earn for her to eat? She still has a child to support." Boss Wen's face was full of disdain.

"Hmph, when the time comes, she will still have to pester us to build a house for her son and get him a wife. Just think about it, it's a bottomless pit." When Zhao Chunhua heard this, she felt like their flesh was being cut, and her face was full of disgust.

"Doesn't he always say that he goes out to do laundry and mending to support the family? Let her go and earn money to build a house for her son. I want to see how capable she is." After saying this, Wen Laosan handed the farm tools to Zhao Chunhua and walked to the well to fetch water for a shower.

Ye Xiuying heard them whispering at the door and knew that the two brothers of the Wen family knew about it. After leaving the door, she said coldly: "Brother, you are back at the right time. Chunhua should have told you everything just now. Don't delay this matter. Wait for mother to come back and ask the elders and brothers in the clan to be witnesses, so that the family can be divided up as soon as possible."

Boss Wen and others saw that Ye Xiuying did not seem to be acting on impulse and looked determined. They wondered if this woman was crazy.

The eldest and third sons of the Wen family exchanged glances, and the elder Wen said, "Second son's wife, if you insist on dividing the family, you'd better think it over carefully. After the family is divided, we won't be responsible for your food and drink. Don't let the people in the clan and village think that we drove you away, an orphan and a widow, because you don't have food to eat."

"Don't worry, you can't even beg for food at your doorstep. What's more, our lives will get better and better. Just don't ask you to beg us." Wen Qingcheng walked out of the house and snorted coldly.

When Wen Lao Da and Wen Lao San saw that Wen Qingcheng was actually talking, they stood there in shock as if struck by lightning. Zhao Chunhua saw the two people's shocked expressions and curled her lips and said, "The iron tree has blossomed."

"Just don't come back crying and beg us when the time comes." Zhao Chunhua sneered and looked at Wen Qingcheng with contempt. She believed in her heart that Ye Xiuying and Wen Qingcheng would regret it after they separated.
