Shen Maoshan was surrounded by the eldest master and the eldest mistress, and all the children of the Shen family were around.

Standing not far away were all the servants of the Shen family.

The sharp-eyed people saw Shen Jinyao.

The first one to start crying was the eldest lady.

The eldest lady said: "You are so good, Shen Jinyao, you actually secretly divided the family. You are really heartless and have no respect for your elders."

"Who do you think you are? How dare you make such a rash decision? You don't think that just because you've been in charge for a few days, you can do whatever you want."

"Bah, you are such a piece of shit. You did such a heinous thing, and you're not afraid of dying early!"

The eldest lady was very excited and was about to hit Shen Jinyao while speaking.

Shen Zhizheng and Shen Zhiyong quickly stopped the eldest lady, but Shen Zhiyong, who had always been straightforward, didn't know how to persuade her.

One is my mother and the other is my sister.

Shen Zhizheng knew Shen Jinyao's difficulties, and also knew that today's situation was bound to happen.

So he said, "Mother, stop making a fuss. Jin'er is doing this for the good of the Shen family."

Unexpectedly, when the eldest lady heard this, she became even more excited.

"You're such a traitor, Zhizheng! When the second branch got into trouble, we suffered too. Now that we've finally settled down, you're actually going to split up the family?"

"You are well-read, but tell me if this is treasonous or not?"

"Tell me yourself, is there a woman like this who has such a big say in her family? It would be strange if she wasn't beaten to death."

The third wife, who was standing aside, looked at her husband while holding her child, and saw that there was no anger on her husband's face.

I think my husband agrees to separate the family.

So the Third Lady said, "Sister-in-law, please don't be so harsh. We have seen everything Jin Yao has done along the way..."

"Don't pretend to be a good person. How many people are there in your family? How many people are there in our family? We have three sons. If we divide the family, how will we live in the future?"

The lady was crying while she was speaking, she was crying very sadly.

For the eldest lady, the Shen family is her support.

Whether the Shen family fell, was confiscated, or even exiled, she never worried.

Because the Shen family is still there and there is still a head of the family.

Now that the Shen family has split up, who will they rely on in the future? This is like the sky falling.

Shen Zhizheng supported the eldest lady and said, "Mother, I have grown up now, and I will still be in the family in the future."

Shen Zhiyong also said: "Mother, Zhiyong will definitely have a bright future."

Shen Zhiye mustered up the courage to say, "Mom, Zhiye will definitely earn money and come back in the future."

"enough!!"

The master roared, and his face turned red.

It was the first time that anyone in the Shen family saw such an expression on the eldest master's face. He glared at Shen Maoshan and said, "Second brother, go ahead."

Shen Maoshan looked at his wife and daughter, especially Shen Jinyao.

She looked frank and didn't think she had done anything wrong.

He recalled Shen Jinyao's words and actions, trying to understand her thoughts.

Shen Maoshan: "Brother, I didn't know about this beforehand. But Jin'er also has her faults. I will ask her to admit her mistakes to you now."

The master stiffened his neck and said, "Is an apology enough? Put the houses together."

When the eldest lady heard that Shen Jinyao was about to admit her mistake, she insisted, "No, she must go."

This statement drew angry glances from everyone. The eldest lady felt somewhat regretful after she said it, so she didn't dare to mention it again.

Shen Maoshan was also a little angry. He was angry at Shen Jinyao for not discussing things with him before doing them.

What’s more, it’s such a big thing as dividing the family.

Shen Maoshan said in a deep voice: "Jin'er, speak!"

Shen Jinyao still had that neither humble nor arrogant expression. She opened her mouth and was about to speak, but was interrupted by a cough not far away.

Everyone looked up and saw that it was the old lady sitting in the carriage who came out.

She was leaning on a cane and was accompanied by several servants.

I cough more than ten times every time I take a step.

After seeing this, several people hurried to greet the old lady.

The Shen family knew more or less about the old lady's health condition.

The eldest master: "Mother, why did you come out?"

After the master finished speaking, he glared at Shen Jinyao again, as if blaming her for being ignorant.

If she hadn't taken the initiative to divide the family, how could she have alarmed the old lady?

The old lady straightened her clothes, took a deep breath and said, "Jin'er told me about the division of the family, and I agreed."

The master was stunned and didn't know what to say.

I could only mutter to myself, "Why? Mother, why?"

The old lady wanted to speak, but she started coughing violently.

Shen Jinyao walked up to the old lady, looked at everyone, and said: "After building the house, the Duke will have no money, and we will have to rely on ourselves in the future."

"Besides, uncle, have you forgotten that we are just ordinary farmers here? If the village doesn't give us land, we are not even farmers."

"You've seen what the houses in the village look like. How can we, a family whose property was confiscated and exiled, live in a large courtyard with multiple entrances and exits?"

The master opened his mouth, but in the end he could only say, "Then you have to discuss this with everyone."

Shen Jinyao: "Uncle, have you forgotten that they wanted to kick us out yesterday? Building a house is the most urgent matter."

This is only one of the reasons. Another reason is that Shen Jinyao knew that if she told it in advance, the master and the mistress would make a fuss for a while.

There is no peace when building a house.

I guess it can't go on.

The Shen family also knew what Shen Jinyao said at the village chief's door.

They all thought that Shen Jinyao had deceived the villagers of Wuhe Village into building a house for the Shen family.

Therefore, Shen Jinyao's anxiety can be understood.

Shen Jinyao said, "The money for building the house was not only earned from selling the boat last time, but also borrowed from General Xiang."

When everyone heard this, they were surprised to learn that this was actually happening.

This time, everyone's suspicions were completely dispelled.

Although Shen Jinyao always said that Zhonglili had no money, she could always take out money, so they thought that Shen Jinyao had hidden the money.

But this money was lent to Shen Jinyao by Xiang Hongxuan, so this matter is different.

They no longer suspected that Shen Jinyao had hidden the silver.

Shen Jinyao's words were so convincing that there was nothing wrong with them.

The only mistake was not discussing it with the master and others.

But so what? Shen Jinyao didn’t even tell her own father, let alone her uncle.

The situation was a bit awkward at this time. The master and the mistress just stood there, not knowing how to get down the stairs.

Finally, a clear cough broke the silence.

"Second Master Shen, come here for a moment."

It turned out to be the village chief, Uncle Li. It seemed that he had heard what happened at the Shen family just now.

Shen Maoshan followed the village chief and walked a little further away. He didn't expect that the village chief, who had ignored him last time, would become polite now.

"Second Master Shen, if there is such a girl in your family, there will be great trouble. Why don't you get rid of her?"

"If it's inconvenient for you, why don't I help you?"
