We have separated, what does it have to do with me if my husband's family eats bran?

Zhao was even more furious. How could her good life be ruined by the second wife's family of encumbrances?

Moreover, the second son's wife is an evil woman. If we don't divide the family, won't he be tortured by her?

He could only say coldly, "Second brother, your leg is broken, your eldest brother has already taken out ten taels of silver, and he also wants to support your two nephews to study, you can't be ignorant and drag him down.

Besides, when a tree grows big, it branches out; when a child grows up, it divides into branches. You all live your own lives. How can you let your elder brother support you?"

"No, I won't split up the family property no matter what mother says. How am I going to live if I split up my leg?"

"You unfilial son, you didn't even listen to me, you deserve to break your legs and become a cripple!

You are such a cruel person. You have no hope for yourself, so you come to harm me and my elder brother. Aren’t you afraid of retribution? !”

Seeing that Chen An was not convinced, Zhao pointed at his nose and started scolding him, saying that even his own son could not stop her from living a good life!

Chen An's face was gloomy, Cheng Yue sneered and said, "The victim can't tell the truth, but the perpetrator is so arrogant, how shameless.

Since you don't care about our family's life or death, don't blame me for going to the school to talk some sense!"

Chen Ping's head buzzed. Cheng Yue's father was a scholar, so he naturally knew about the academic affairs. If he really let her make a scene, even if people didn't believe him, the two children would not be able to survive!

"Brother, sister-in-law, this is very serious. We are a family after all. If the two children become successful in the future, it will also benefit you, right? Don't dare to make such a fuss.

Mom is old and has a bad temper, so don't take it to heart.

Besides, what mother said about dividing the family is not unreasonable, and even if we divide the family, aren't we still brothers?"

When Zhao saw Chen Ping winking at her, she realized that she had been impulsive and almost ruined the situation, so she didn't dare to say anything more.

Li Manying followed up with another question: "Yes, you can't write two characters for Chen with one stroke. If your two children's reputations are ruined, won't you be ashamed?"

"Besides, think about it, sister-in-law, it would be great if the family could be divided. After the family is divided, you can be the master of your own house, and that would be a comfortable life!"

Cheng Yue nodded, "What the elder sister-in-law said makes sense. It is good to be the head of the family, but the mother-in-law still has work to do. It is really hard for the elder sister-in-law!"

Li Manying took a deep breath. Isn't this setting a trap for her? As expected, she saw Zhao staring at her viciously.

"You are wrong, sister-in-law. As the saying goes, an old person in the family is like a treasure. It is a blessing for us to have our mother-in-law with us."

If Zhao had no choice but to follow them, she would have wanted to leave her to Chen An and his wife. Who doesn't want to be the head of the family?

But after all, my mother-in-law has a lot of money in her hands. If people follow them, the money will naturally be theirs, so it is not a bad thing.

Chen Ping was also dissatisfied and said: "Our parents gave birth to us, and we should be filial to them. You can't talk like this, my brother and sister-in-law."

Zhao felt relieved, thinking that her love for the eldest son was not in vain. Then she looked at the second son, who was a good-for-nothing and unfilial. She felt that dividing the family was right.

Chen An thought for a moment, and continued, "Brother and sister-in-law are right, but how are we going to live after we split up? Sigh..."

Chen Ping heard what Chen An said, and he was delighted and said, "Second brother, as your elder brother, I naturally can't bear to see you hungry and cold, so I will definitely give you a larger share when the family property is divided.

However, please do not tell anyone about the specific reason for the separation. It will affect your nephew's reputation, which is not good. What do you think?"

With things like this in mind, Chen Ping wanted to split up the family even more. As long as he could get rid of the second brother's family, it didn't matter if he gave them more. It was better than dragging them down to death.

Li Manying had a fake smile on her face. It didn't matter if some blood bleed. It was good as long as it could be distributed.

Zhao had no choice but to nod her head even though she was unwilling. She didn't want to give away even a single stick of firewood, but now, what could she do?

The evil second brother finally changed his mind. If he changes his mind, I'm afraid they will lose more than they gain.

Chen An and Cheng Yue looked at each other and nodded, "Since big brother has said so, I, as your younger brother, will not embarrass you, so let's talk about how to divide this family!"

Chen Ping instantly perked up and said hastily, "Your sister-in-law has taken out ten taels of silver, and there is not much left in the public account. These three brick and tile houses are for your mother to live in when she is old, so they will not be shared.

The sixteen acres of good farmland can be divided into three parts. Mother has one more acre, and my share will also be given to you, which is ten acres. The remaining two hills connected to the dry land will also be given to you.

There is also our ancestral home on the top of the mountain. Although it is a little shabby, it can be lived in after repair. It is all yours."

Apart from the silver in his hands and three brick houses, Chen Ping didn't care much about the fields and hills at home.

The two hills in particular are of no use except for some trees and weeds. The dry land connected to them also doesn't grow crops well, so it's just right to give them to Chen An.

Although the Chen family's ancestral home is there, the master said that the feng shui there is not very good, otherwise they would not have come to the village to build a new house.

Most of the family property was taken away at once. Zhao felt a pang of pain in her heart, but she couldn't say anything and could only hold it in her heart.

"Brother, your sincerity is not enough. My husband has given so much money to the public over the years, why don't you share it?

The ten taels of silver you took were for your husband's medical treatment, so how can it be counted?

We have no money left after we split up, and it's hard to even buy household items. Brother, aren't you forcing me to do something dishonorable?"

Cheng Yue was embarrassed. She didn't want to live with this weird family as she didn't want to divide the house. But she couldn't divide the money. Would they treat her as a sucker?

Chen Ping didn't expect Cheng Yue to be so difficult to deal with. Then he saw that Chen An didn't say a word, and he couldn't maintain the friendly look on his face at all.

He gnashed his teeth and said, "Then let's do the math. My second brother has only brought back thirty taels of silver in the past ten years.

One part is for your mother as a filial piety, one part is for your daily needs, and the other part, ten taels of silver, is all for you!

But you must swear that you will never threaten the child's reputation again!"

Cheng Yue nodded, "Okay, but then again, big brother, you gave us your share of the property. If we get poor in the future, mother-in-law will naturally be ours to support. Then mother-in-law's share..."

"How could we be in such a state? Sister-in-law, please don't curse us!" Before Cheng Yue could finish her words, Li Manying interrupted her anxiously.

Their family was thriving, so how could they fall into such a state?

Chen Ping didn't expect that Cheng Yue was still not satisfied after dividing so much of the family property, and even coveted his mother's share? She was really poor and crazy!

"I'm the eldest son, so I'll naturally take care of Mom in her old age. Even if I really fall into poverty, I'll still have Mom to feed me. I won't push the responsibility onto you guys!"

Zhao's frown could kill a fly. If she followed the eldest brother, she could live a life of luxury, but if she followed the second brother, wouldn't she starve to death?

She is not stupid and knows how to choose.

Without even thinking, he said, "Just take care of yourselves. You don't have to give me money for filial piety in the future. Just don't bother us when you have problems. I will never live with you!"

This is exactly what Cheng Yue was waiting for. After all, an unkind and unkind elder like Zhao would affect the feng shui of the family and bring bad luck to whoever follows him.

Upon hearing this, Chen An took a deep look at Zhao and said, "In that case, please ask the head of the village to come over, write down the other details to be divided, and sign the deed at the same time."

As soon as Chen An finished speaking and Chen Ping hadn't made a move yet, Li Manying had already walked out the door before him. Thinking about dividing the family business, her steps became much lighter.
