"Gu Youcai! Your brother is back. He's not Gu Youde from the county town. You're your fifth brother Gu Siming who fled to other places to escape famine!"

The people who were watching the fun at the door of Gu Youcai's house saw Gu Youcai coming back and shouted to him with a smile.

Seeing that Gu Youcai remained silent, someone else shouted:

"Your fifth brother, Gu Siming is back! Oh my, that's too tragic!"

The person who was speaking added a sentence when he thought of the son-in-law of the Gu family who was chopped into eight pieces and died as Yang had just said!

After hearing this, Gu Youcai felt a sinking feeling in his heart. Is Lao Wu's family living a miserable life now?

This fifth brother won't come back to fight with him for the family property, right? It's all Dad's fault that he was afraid of the village chief and didn't go to the village chief for notarization.

The division of the family was just a verbal statement at the beginning. Over the years, he has been cursing Lao Wu's family to die outside. Lao Wu has not come back for so many years, and he thought his curse had worked!

I didn't expect him to come back today.

No! Those prime fields are all his!

Gu Youcai walked into the room with a gloomy face, took a look at Gu Xiucai and confirmed that he was really his biological brother.

Looking at their tattered clothes, the crying Yang and Gu Yingxue, and the sickly Gu Yuze, his heart sank to the bottom. He pulled the corner of his mouth and said sullenly:

"Old Five is back."

Gu Xiucai sneered in his heart when he saw his elder brother's indifferent and even a little cold look. This is his elder brother!

When he was young, the eldest brother was worried that he would steal his parents' love. When he grew up, he was worried that he would steal the family property.

Anyway, he never treats me well.

However, he did not have much brotherly affection for this eldest brother. The reason why he was willing to follow Gu Daniu to the old house this time was that he wanted to take advantage of his downtrodden appearance just after returning to draw a clear line with them.

Otherwise, if they find out that I still have some wealth, they will stick to me like a dog-skin plaster and I won’t be able to get rid of them!

When Xia saw Gu Youcai coming back, she quickly pulled him into the inner room and whispered for a while before coming out.

"Fifth brother, what are your plans for coming back this time? Are you going to leave or not?"

As soon as Gu Youcai came out after discussing with Xia Shi, he asked Gu Xiucai in a muffled voice, without any excitement of brothers meeting again after a long separation on his face.

"Why would he leave? This is Gujia Village, it's his roots! Why would he leave? If he wants to leave, go ahead!"

When Gu Dechang saw his good brother being bullied, his beard trembled with anger and he spoke to Gu Youcai in a bad mood.

After hearing this, Gu Youcai shrank his neck, squatted in the corner and said nothing more.

"Old Five, you're back just in time. We split up the family business in a hurry and didn't have time to go to the village chief to sign and seal. Today is just the right time to complete the formalities!"

After saying this, Xia looked at Gu Xiucai who had no expression on his face and shrank her neck. Why does this Old Five look scarier now than in the past?

However, she still had to say what needed to be said. This family was divided in the first place, and now that they were back, it was just the right time to complete the formalities!

After saying that, she glanced at Gu Dechang cautiously, then shrank to one side and said nothing more.

"Dad sold your acre of land during the disaster year, so I can't give it back to you."

Gu Youcai squatted in the corner and continued speaking in a muffled voice.

His three sons, the eldest Gu Dazhuang and the second oldest Gu Qingxi, squatted in the corner with their father with expressionless faces, neither calling out to anyone nor speaking a word.

Only Gu Youcai's third son, Gu Shugen, looked at Gu Xiucai and called him "Fifth Uncle". When he saw Gu Youcai and Xia glaring at him, he quickly lowered his head and dared not say anything more.

Gu Qingxi's wife Li Cuicui carefully observed the expressions of the people in the room. Her eyes kept moving around, and it was obvious that she was experiencing a lot of psychological activities.

But she knew that in this family, only the eldest sister-in-law was not scolded for speaking. If she spoke to the taciturn man in the third sister's family, she would be scolded by her mother-in-law.

So, I just kept rolling my eyes but didn't dare to say a word.

Gu Shugen's wife was trembling as she held her daughter and hid behind Gu Shugen, not daring to say a word.

She could see that her mother-in-law was in a bad mood today, so she must not take it out on her daughter anymore!

The mother-in-law always blamed herself for giving birth to a money-losing girl, instead of giving birth to a son like the eldest and second sisters-in-law to carry on the Gu family's bloodline. Whenever she was unhappy, she would yell that she wanted to strangle her daughter to death to avoid wasting the Gu family's food!

"You are so good, Gu Youcai. As soon as your brother came home, you mentioned the division of the family. I think you are...!"

Gu Dechang looked at Gu Youcai with a sullen face and just as he was about to talk about opening the ancestral hall, he was stopped by Gu Xiucai.

"Okay! I can see that you don't want to acknowledge me as your brother, so let's write the paperwork to sever our relationship together, so that your family won't have to worry all day about our family taking advantage of you!"

Gu Xiucai sneered and glanced at Old Lady Liu. Seeing that she quickly lowered her head and didn't look at him, the sarcasm on her face became even more intense.

Very good! Even his own mother was afraid that he would be a burden to her, so she didn’t dare to acknowledge this son who had fled from famine!

Mr. Gu no longer asked about Mrs. Liu's whereabouts. Since she loved her eldest son so much, she should live a good life with him.

Anyway, when the family was divided, she was determined to let the eldest son live with her. She shouldn't be sad even if I cut off ties with them now. My mother's heart is biased. How could she be sad for losing such an unlovable son!

Xia originally wanted to use Old Lady Liu to live with her family and extort some money to buy out Old Lady Zhang's pension, but when she took one look at Mr. Gu and the others, whose clothes were tattered, she swallowed the words back.

Forget it! Let’s not mention it! Otherwise, they will be unwilling to sign the separation documents again!

Besides, it would be better to sever the relationship. My eldest grandson is the God of Literature. He will become a high-ranking official sooner or later. I can't let the fifth brother's family benefit from my eldest grandson!

Gu Dechang sent someone to the county town to find Gu Laosi to discuss today's events, but Gu Laosi never came back.

He only brought back one message, saying that the family had been divided a long time ago, and as for severing ties, since the brotherhood was not strong enough, he should just follow the eldest brother's wishes.

Because Gu Dechang was there, the documents for dividing the family and severing ties were quickly written, and all he had to do was to go to the county government office tomorrow to stamp them with the official seal.

"Well... Lao Wu, your family just returned to the village, and you must have a lot of things to do, so I won't keep you here."

Xia spoke to Gu Xiucai with a kind face, as if she was afraid of delaying Gu Xiucai's important matter!

"Auntie from the Gu family, my father is a scholar. Please call him Scholar Gu when we meet in the future. Also, you are not my father's sister-in-law. My father has nothing to do with your family. Don't flatter your bumpy face!"

Yang endured for a long time. She knew that her father-in-law had important things to do, so she didn't dare to speak. But now that everything was done, she couldn't help but speak to Xia with a sarcastic look on her face.

“Hahahaha~!”

"Don't mention it. After hearing what Gu Laowu's daughter-in-law said, I realized that Xia Shi really does look a bit like a toad!"

The person who was eavesdropping at the door couldn't help but burst out laughing after hearing what Yang said!

Some people even looked at Xia carefully, and suddenly felt that she really looked a bit like a toad!

"You bitch, I'm going to tear your mouth apart!"

With her unique skills of pulling hair and scolding people, Xia has always been unrivaled in Gujia Village. Now, she is being treated so humiliatingly by Yang that she is so angry that her whole body is on fire!

Hearing the laughter of the villagers outside the door, Xia rushed towards Yang in anger and wanted to use her special skills of pulling hair and tearing mouth. However, before she got close to Yang, she was kicked away by Gu Yu'an!

"Ouch! Ouch! My waist is broken! Pay for my medical expenses!"

Xia covered her waist and sweated profusely, grimacing and crying!
