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

"Mom, am I not filial enough to you?" Qin Youwen responded with a face full of grievance, tears in his eyes, and a choked voice. At the same time, he glanced at Shen.

Shen understood what was going on and fell to her knees, crying out in tears, "No matter what, I can't let Linlin marry that kind of man! My two children are my life! Mother, how can I live like this?" Shen cried so hard that her heart ached and she couldn't breathe.

"You two still dare to talk back. Now that you've grown strong, you want to split up the family. Don't you even know how much you weigh?"

"Mom, please say less. There are so many people here now. Please give Youcai some face." Qin Youqian, who was standing nearby, came over and pulled Zhao.

"You useless thing, get out of here." Zhao struggled to break free from Qin Youqian's hand.

Qin Youqian could only step aside in disappointment and stand with Fang and the children.

Linlin and Sisi were also hiding on the other side, their eyes filled with fear and anxiety. They huddled together, their hands tightly grasping each other.

At this time, the village scholar Uncle Li frowned and said with disdain: "It's okay that you throw and steal manure, but now you want to marry your granddaughter to the old cripple from the next village. You are going too far."

Li Bo usually hates evil and hates this kind of injustice the most.

When Zhao heard this, she immediately put her hands on her hips, her eyes wide open, and said, "How did I go too far? What's so bad about that old cripple's family? If Linlin marries him, she'll have a comfortable life and even receive a generous betrothal gift."

"No wonder the second branch wants to split up." Mrs. Zhang couldn't stand Zhao's arrogance and domineering look, and whispered in the crowd.

Unexpectedly, Zhao heard it.

"Divide the family? Can they live well after dividing the family? They still have to rely on me." Zhao rolled her eyes at Mrs. Zhang and shouted.

Uncle Wang, who was impatient, was furious and shouted, "This Zhao family is simply unreasonable."

Zhao glared at Uncle Wang and scolded him, "What do you know? I'm planning for everyone's future."

"It's really not easy for this family." Aunt Liu looked at Qin Youcai's family with sympathy and said softly.

The villagers were talking about it one after another.

Zhao's face turned ashen as she listened to the villagers' accusations.

She stamped her foot, pointed at the villagers and cursed, "None of your business! Stop meddling in other people's business. It's none of your business to interfere in my family affairs. I marry my granddaughter to whomever I want. What's it to you?"

"Everyone knows what kind of person the old cripple is. He was addicted to gambling and lust when he was young, and now he's old and still has no self-control. You still want to marry Linlin to him? What are you thinking?" Su Panpan came online again.

Su Panpan was confronting Zhao with fierce words. When she turned her head inadvertently in the crowd, a familiar figure suddenly came into her sight.

The figure was as tall as a pine tree, and seemed to carry a different kind of light.

He stood quietly not far away, his eyes fixed on her coldly.

Su Panpan's heart skipped a beat. It was Han Jingrui!

Her eyes lit up instantly, filled with surprise, shyness, and a hint of imperceptible panic.

The distance between them is neither far nor near, yet it seems as if there are thousands of mountains and rivers between them.

There was a subtle atmosphere in the air.

She couldn't help but wonder, "How could it be him? Why is he here? Has he been watching me?"

Thinking of this, Su Panpan's cheeks turned slightly hot and her heartbeat became more rapid.

She secretly glanced in the direction where Han Jingrui had appeared just now. However, when she hurriedly looked over again, Han Jingrui had disappeared again.

A sense of loss welled up in Su Panpan's heart.

She stared blankly at the direction where Han Jingrui seemed to have appeared just now, her thoughts in a mess.

She had no intention of arguing with Zhao anymore, nor did she want to watch the fun anymore.

At this moment, her mind was filled with the disappearing figure.

Did Han Jingrui see how she acted like a shrew just now?

Su Panpan was secretly annoyed.

Although it was only a few seconds, to her, it felt like ten thousand years!

……

"What do you know? I'm doing this for the good of this family. She'll live a happy life if she marries him." Zhao was still relentless and shouted at Su Panpan.

But Su Panpan was immersed in her own world and didn't respond at all.

"Then you can enjoy this blessing by yourself. If someone wants to divide the family property, just agree to it immediately." Wang Hexiang couldn't bear to watch it anymore and couldn't help but speak up.

"I don't want to split up the family. I don't want to split up the family. I want to see what you can do to me." But Zhao's voice at this moment seemed very weak amid the discussions of the villagers.

"We have to separate. We absolutely cannot marry Linlin to a family like that." Qin Youwen also responded firmly.

The two sides were in a stalemate and the atmosphere was extremely tense.

The villagers gathered around and accused Zhao of being tyrannical.

"Zhao Cuihua, you are going too far. How can you treat your own family like this?" said a villager with a frown.

"That's right. How can you be so cruel to push your granddaughter into the fire?" Another villager echoed.

She glanced fiercely at the villagers around her, as if trying to intimidate them all with her eyes.

However, the villagers were not scared away by her eyes. Instead, they stood more firmly on Qin Youwen's side.

Seeing that she was unable to calm the situation, Zhao was angry and anxious, but she didn't know what to do.

She could only stamp her feet in anger.

The village head stood in the middle of the crowd, looking at Zhao with a serious expression. He said, "Zhao, your actions are truly inappropriate. Family harmony and neighborhood peace are the long-term solution. You must not act so stubbornly."

Several village elders also discussed the matter. One of them, a white-haired old man, said, "Zhao, please listen to our advice and stop being so stubborn."

Zhao's face looked very ugly as she listened to everyone's accusations and persuasions.

She clenched her fists tightly, wanting to retort but not knowing where to start.

She looked around, seeing the eyes of the villagers and the serious expressions of the head of the village and the elders. Although she was extremely reluctant, she also understood that she was now in a situation of isolation and helplessness.

Zhao gritted her teeth and said unwillingly, "Hmph, all you do is help them." But her voice was clearly lacking in confidence.

Seeing that Zhao's attitude had softened, the village head continued, "Zhao, as long as you agree to split the family, everyone will still respect you as always."

Under pressure from everyone, although Zhao was extremely reluctant, he had to make concessions.

She glared at Qin Youwen fiercely and said, "Let's break up, but don't expect me to help you in the future. Just wait to suffer."

The separation procedures were completed on the spot with the witness of the villagers.

Of course, it was impossible for them to get any money, so Zhao gave them two acres of abandoned land in the east of the village, which was near Zhou Youliang's house.

Finally, Zhao turned around and walked back into the house angrily, slamming the door shut, leaving behind a group of villagers who were talking about something.
