Sanniu looked at Yuntao with admiration and said, "Mom, you are really amazing. I never thought that such smelly grass could be sold for money."

Erniu: "Yeah, mother, I didn't expect that either. How much silver did you get from selling it?"

After Erniu finished speaking, the little ones all looked at Yuntao.

Yun Tao said embarrassedly: "There is not much Houttuynia cordata, I only bought a few dozen coins."

After hearing this, Sanniu looked at Yuntao with a smile and said, "Mom, I told you that this thing is worthless. You didn't believe it yet, but now you go to sell it, you will believe it. You carried this stinky grass and swaggered around, and even went to the town to sell it. It made me laugh to death, and you sold it for more than ten coins."

The little ones couldn't help laughing when they heard this.

Yun Tao looked at them and said, "That's because you don't know how to appreciate it. It does smell pungent, but it tastes delicious. When mom makes it cold for you to eat one day, you will definitely fall in love with the taste. It's really intoxicating after eating it."

When they heard that their mother wanted to prepare some cold dishes for them, the beehive immediately dispersed.

A week later, Wang Dali finally came back.

Before Wang Dali could reach his own room and enter his front door, he heard Wang Erli's voice saying, "Brother, you still remember to come back."

Wang Dali: "I was wondering who was talking, it turned out to be my second brother. I was so scared, how come you walked like a cat without making any sound."

Wang Erli: "Does this mean that Big Brother has something wrong? I was just walking along the road, but you thought there was no sound. You must be scared to death."

Wang Dali: "What's wrong with me? I just came back to see my father."

Wang Erli was shocked and said, "Brother, do you really not know or are you pretending not to know? Dad died after you came back that day. I don't know what you did or what you said to him. After you left, we went in to see Dad, but he was already dead. I think when we went in to see Dad, he was already gone."

"Brother, what did you say to Dad that made him die without even being able to catch his breath?"

Wang Dali was panicking. He just took the money and didn't do anything or say anything. But he pretended to be calm and said, "He is my father. What can I do? What else can I say? I can only ask Dad to take good care of himself. When I make a lot of money, I will let him enjoy his life."

Wang Erli: "But Dad died right after you left. The doctor said before that if Dad had taken good care of himself, he would have no problem living for a few more years. But now Dad is gone, and it was so sudden. Brother, you said this had nothing to do with you. I don't believe it at all, so don't quibble."

Wang Dali: "Erli, you need evidence for what you say. I am your biological brother. You can't talk nonsense. Isn't it normal for Dad to be gone? After Mom's accident, Dad has been in poor health. He is always lying in bed. Can I be blamed for this? It's your fault. Aren't you always at home? How did you take good care of Dad? Isn't it your responsibility that Dad is like this now? Can you blame me? I have been out making money recently. I just want my family to live a better life."

Wang Erli was speechless. He had never seen such a shameless person.

"Have you ever managed the fields at home? Big brother, have you ever been to the fields? It's always the two of us working in the fields. Even your three precious sons are idlers in our eyes, a bunch of gluttons. They eat a lot but do little."

Wang Dali said confidently, "It's your own fault that you are incompetent and can't give birth to a son. Who do you blame? I am Wang Dali, who is capable enough to give birth to three sons. I am awesome. It's okay for three of us to eat free meals. If you are capable, you can also give birth to three sons and eat free meals. I, your eldest brother, will never say anything to you. If your parents were still alive, they wouldn't say anything to you either."

Wang Erli was speechless. Not having a son has always been Wang Erli's pain. In the village, not having a son means being gossiped about, and no one will take care of you in your old age. He didn't know how many people gossiped about him behind his back.

Wang Erli: "Brother, we won't talk about this matter anymore. Mom is in jail now and won't be out for a while. Dad is gone too, so we should take care of his funeral. Then we should divide the land and money in the family between our two families, and we will live our own lives in the future."

"You are the first wife, and we, the second wife, cannot afford to marry you. Even if you become rich in the future, we, the second wife, will not shamelessly follow you. We all live our lives based on our own abilities. You go your way, and I go mine."

Wang Dali was about to agree, but then he changed his mind. If the family is divided, who will farm the land? What will happen to my three sons? Now they can eat for free with my second brother without doing anything. If the family is divided, they will definitely have to work on their own, and they will have to get some money or land. After all, my second brother has been working hard for so many years. It is really unreasonable not to give them any money, and it will also be unreasonable for the village chief to come to him.

Wang Dali said gently, "Second brother, what nonsense are you talking about? Dad just left, why should we two brothers divide the family property? Our two families should still live well as before. You have to believe in your eldest brother, he will definitely make money and let you live a good life."

"As for this family, let's not divide it. You guys still farm the fields, and I'll still work hard outside."

Wang Erli said firmly, "Brother, it's too late for you to say anything. I insist on dividing the family. Dad should have the family's silver on him. There should be dozens or even hundreds of taels. Your sister-in-law and I have searched everywhere but didn't find a single copper coin. Did you take the silver? Brother, do you not want to share the silver with us? That's why you don't want to divide the family."

"Then there are the family lands. The deeds are in your possession. Shouldn't you give some of them out? I, Wang Erli, also have a share. I can't let you manage it forever."

Wang Dali was furious. He said in a sharp voice, "Erli, you wish for nothing. I tell you, these all belong to me, Wang Dali. I am the eldest son and you are the second son. How can you, the second son, have a share of these things? Let me tell you. When mom and dad were still alive, it was Xiaomei and I who took care of them. You two have been working on the Dali farm, but we have also provided food and clothing for your family. We don't owe you the share you want. You can divide the family. You can leave the same way you came."

Wang Erli was also very angry. "Brother, you are going too far. We are brothers after all. I wanted to talk to you nicely, but with your attitude now, it seems that we can't have a good discussion. Then let's find the village chief or a respected person to come and judge how to divide this family. Let them decide. I will accept whatever they say."

Wang Dali also shouted, "You wish for it. I'll tell you, Erli. The silver is not with me. I didn't take a single copper coin, but the land deed is with me. I admit that I will not give you a piece of land. You want land and silver, you are daydreaming."

When Wang Erli heard this, he was so angry that he couldn't speak. He just turned around and left.

Wang Dali saw Wang Erli walking towards the village chief's house and said, "It's no use for you to go to the village chief. All your money is gone. I don't have any money now, and I sold my land. We only have a small piece of land, which is worthless. The only valuable thing is this old house."
