Let’s split up if we want to. I have a system, so who should I be afraid of?

Shen also nodded firmly: "Yes, split the family."

"What?" Zhao was furious, pointing at Qin Youwen. She couldn't believe that her second son, who used to be timid, would dare to say such a thing. "You dare! Say it again?"

"If I say it again, it's still a family split, mother, you're going too far!" Qin Youwen did not back down.

Qin Youwen raised his voice and added, "Mom, if you continue to be so unreasonable, this family will fall apart sooner or later!"

Zhao was stunned for a moment by his roar, and then started cursing again.

At this time, Qin Youqian and Fang were standing aside, looking anxious.

They both feared that after the family split up, there would be no one to help share the burden of serving Zhao.

Qin Youqian quickly stepped forward to hold Qin Youwen back, and said, "Youwen, don't be impulsive. Let's talk it over. We can't split up."

Fang also said: "Yes, Youwen, it's so nice for the whole family to be together. How will we live after we split up? It will be so lonely!"

"Brother and sister-in-law, I have thought about this matter carefully and have made up my mind." Qin Youwen said solemnly.

Qin Youwen pulled Shen and turned to walk into the room. Seeing Linlin and Sisi hugging each other and crying, his heart ached as if it was pricked by a needle.

"Don't be afraid, Dad won't let you suffer any injustice." Qin Youwen said softly.

Shen also walked over and wiped the tears of the two children.

In the yard, Qin Lang was still standing there, the indifference on his face gradually replaced by confusion.

Qin Yanyan in the corner bit her lips, afraid that this fate would happen to her.

Qin Youwen and Shen sat in a dim corner, both of them looking tired and determined.

Qin Youwen frowned and said, "We can't live like this anymore. We have to separate as soon as possible and not let the children continue to suffer."

Shen bit her lip, tears glistening in her eyes. She nodded vigorously and said, "Yes, we can't delay any longer. Even if it gets harder in the future, it will be better than now."

The next day, Qin Youwen went out early in the morning. He walked hurriedly with a determined look on his face.

He went to find the village head first.

At the door of the village head's house, he rubbed his hands awkwardly.

When the village head came out, Qin Youwen immediately stepped forward, bowed deeply, and said anxiously, "Sir, I really can't live with my mother anymore. She wants to marry Linlin to the old cripple from the next village. You know what kind of person the old cripple is. How can my wife and I agree to this? I want to divide the family property. I beg you to be fair."

The village head looked at Qin Youwen's haggard appearance, frowned slightly, nodded, and blamed Zhao in his heart for causing trouble for him again. In the entire Huaxi Village, she was the one who had the most trouble and was always causing trouble.

Then, Qin Youwen and the village head went to find several elders in the village who had a say.

Every time Qin Youwen visited a house, he would bow respectfully and earnestly explain his conflict with the Zhao family and his request to divide the family.

When the elders heard this, some frowned slightly, while others showed sympathy.

When Qin Youwen and the village head brought several elders to the Qin family to mediate the division of the family, the news spread quickly and the villagers gradually gathered around.

Zhao heard the noise and rushed out, hands on hips, face full of anger, shouting: "What do you want to do? No one can let us split up the family."

She knew clearly that once the family was divided, the number of people working at home would decrease again.

Thinking of everything that happened after Su Panpan split up the family, she felt filled with remorse and regret.

Now her second son has proposed to separate the family business, which is like a needle piercing her heart.

But the second son had no money and wanted to divide the family property. He must have been trying to scare her because he simply didn't want Linlin to marry the old cripple from the next village.

When Zhao thought of this, she decided not to give in.

"Mom, don't you know why we're splitting up the family?" Qin Youwen said angrily. In the past, he had endured humiliation and never gained any favor from his mother, but today, he was determined to break off relations with her.

Zhao glared and cursed, spit flying, "It's her blessing that someone likes Linlin. It's better to marry him and become a young lady than to starve to death at home."

"Oh! You praise the old cripple's family like a flower, so why don't you marry into his family yourself?" Su Panpan, who was dragged by Wang Hexiang and Lin Xiu'e to join in the fun, stood in the crowd with her hands folded in front of her chest, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, and said loudly with a bit of sarcasm.

"Yes, why don't you marry him yourself?"

As soon as Su Panpan finished her sarcastic words, cheers suddenly broke out from the crowd.

Qin Youwen and Shen looked at Su Panpan with gratitude.

"You...what do you know. I like Linlin." Zhao is now frightened when he meets Su Panpan, and his fighting power drops by half.

"Oh, so what you mean is that if the old cripple takes a fancy to you, you will marry him?"

The onlookers burst into laughter, and even the village head was amused.

"You...you..." Zhao was speechless after being confronted by Panpan. Her face was full of anger. She kept pointing her finger at Su Panpan and her body was shaking with anxiety.

"Well said! Panpan's words are so satisfying." Liu Ermaizi, the most lively person in the village, had his eyes shining. He clapped his hands and said loudly:

Aunt Li nodded continuously: "Panpan, this child is really strong now."

"What Zhao did was indeed excessive." Uncle Zhao, the always steady old carpenter, stroked his beard and nodded slightly.

However, amid the cheers, some people also looked surprised.

Widow Zhou, who was usually timid, opened her eyes wide and murmured in disbelief, "Pan Pan is really bold now. She actually dared to talk back to Zhao like that."

"Not only is he brave, but he is also so eloquent. He is really impressive." The shrewd peddler Zhang Laosan was also amazed.

The young wife Cuilan pulled the person next to her and whispered, "Why didn't I realize Panpan was so powerful before? Isn't she the most timid and fearful?"

"That was in the past. Now Su Panpan is even more powerful than Zhao Cuihua. I saw it with my own eyes at the gate of her courtyard." Aunt Wang gossiped while eating melon seeds.

"Zhao Cuihua always picks on the weak, but Su Panpan has changed her mind." Aunt Liu, who was watching the fun nearby, also came over, grabbed a handful of melon seeds from Aunt Wang's hand, and started eating them.

The crowd's discussions rose one after another. Some expressed contempt for Zhao, some admired Su Panpan, and some were surprised by Su Panpan's change. The scene was lively.

The village head and the elders looked at the chaotic scene with frowns on their faces.

The village head probably understood the public opinion, cleared his throat, and said seriously, "Zhao, you should reflect on your behavior. It is really inappropriate for you to treat Youwen and his family like this."

The elders also nodded in agreement.

"What have I done wrong to him? It's only natural for a son to be filial to his mother." Zhao responded righteously. She was still resentful in her heart about Li Zheng asking her to compensate Aunt Liu last time.
