Ji Zixuan reached out and gently rubbed Ji Yuanyuanâs head, just like when he was young, âDonât take everything on yourself. This matter has nothing to do with you.â
His sisterâs words were, at most, a fuse.
The idea of splitting up was definitely something that had occurred before. They were just using this as a catalyst to support their long-standing theory.
âWhy are we splitting up? Have you had enough good days?â Li Zhiming coughed and said helplessly.
Li Leiâs attitude was very firm, âFather, Mother, I want to split.â
âWhatâs the difference between now and a branch family? You donât have to care about the greenhouse and the farmhouse. The money will be divided equally and transferred directly to your account.â Liu Guihua said.
Other than eating at the same table and having their household registration in the same household register, they were no different from splitting up.
âSince itâs no different from splitting up, then letâs just split up. Iâm different from Xiao Yong. I donât want to farm anymore. I want to do something else.â
Li Lei said as he lowered his head.
Li Xu opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, she did
not say it.
Splitting up was a big deal, so she really couldnât express her opinion.
If she said too much, it was inevitable that he would complain.
If word got out, it would probably be said that the Sister-in-law had returned to stir up trouble in her family.
She didnât want to lose such a reputation.
â â We donât have to farm now. Weâve already hired peopleâ¦â Liu Guihua wanted
to say something more.
Li Zhiming said, âThatâs enough, damn it.â
Liu Guihua looked at Li Zhiming curiously, âOld manâ¦â
Li Zhiming said, âThe two of us are about to turn seventy years old. Half of our legs are already in the coffin. When the two of us are gone, this family will have to be separated sooner or later. Itâs better to take advantage of the fact that the two of us are here to separate the family quickly.â
If both of them did not have a person in charge when they split up, there might
be a rift between the brothers.
The children were all in their thirties and had their own families and children. They were no longer the same as when they were young. It was inevitable that they had their own thoughts.
âFather, what are you talking about? You and <other are in good health. You will definitely live to a hundred years old.â Qin Xiaomin said unwillingly.
All these years, her parents-in-law had treated her well. The money that Li Yong earned had helped her family a lot, but her parents-in-law had never said anything about it.
Therefore, from the bottom of her heart, she treated her in-laws as her biological parents.
Of course, the reason why Li Yong supported her family was not because of what she said.
On the contrary, whenever Li Yong gave her family money, she would object.
However, Li Yong was a kind person and did not hold grudges.
She felt that since she had money, her family should help her out since they were not doing well.
Although Li Yong was willing, Qin Xiaomin would not take it for granted. He treated her parents well, so of course, she had to treat his parents well too.
âBut this family canât be separated just because they say so. Itâs almost the New Year. We can wait until after the New Year to talk about splitting up. Li Zhiming looked around and asked gloomily.
âNo.â Li Lei shook his head.
Although Li Yong was unwilling, he could only grit his teeth and agree when he saw his parents and elder brother agreed.
In the evening, the family had dinner together again. Li Xu brought the whole family back to the city.
They had originally planned to stay at home, but with the current atmosphere at home, they really couldnât stay any longer.
The next day, the family went to Zhang Kunâs parents house.
Compared to the Li family, the Zhang familyâs current atmosphere was not bad. Wenwen had already grown into a slender and elegant young lady. Compared to her bashful childhood, she was much livelier now.
Zhang Yao and Wei Zhenghao were still living their divorced lives. After so many years, Zhang Yao had no intention of remarrying Wei Zhenghao. Wei Zhenghao didnât have any complaints and willingly gave Zhang Yao all the money he earned.
However, the two of them did not have an easy time either.
Back then, Wei Zhenghaoâs elder brother had taken over the shed and money at home, and he had made some money.
Later, he got into gambling and owed a lot of money.
Now, the whole family was living in hiding.
When they were rich, they treated Wei Zhenghao as an outsider. Now that they had no money, they started to think about Wei Zhenghao.
He would come to Wei Zhenghao every few days to ask for money. If he didnât give it, he would act like a scoundrel.
As the saying goes, the barefoot are not afraid of the ones wearing shoes. Wei Zhenghao really couldnât do anything to him.
Occasionally, for the sake of peace and quiet, he would also give the Wei
familyâs eldest son some money.
This also caused the Elfest Wei to taste the sweetness and haunt their family.
Zhang Yao was annoyed, but there was nothing she could do.
âCall the police. Even if the police come, they will only give a few warnings. He didnât break any laws, so they couldnât really hold him tight. My parents are still here. Besides, I still have to rely on these few acres of greenhouses to earn money.â While chatting, Zhang Yao sounded very helpless.
âWeâre all people who know the law, so we canât do those violent things. So now, Eldest Wei was like a piece of meat on a knife. There was nothing he could do.â
âIf you ask me, no matter how much trouble he makes, donât give him a single cent. If he canât taste the sweetness, he probably wonât look for you in less than half a year. You two just canât put down your pride and always compromise.â Zhang Yao said helplessly, âItâs easy to say. The buyer is negotiating the price for us. Heâs not letting us off. The business would be ruined if we didnât send him away.â
Zhang Jun had tried to persuade her countless times, but Zhang Yao always said the same thing.
He was so angry that the mild-tempered Zhang Jun said, âThen what else is there to say? You can only bear it yourself.
Li Xu listened from the side and did not interrupt from the beginning to the end.
She had learned her lesson in her maiden family and did not dare to give others ideas casually.
Ji Yuanyuan hid at the side and chatted with Qin Mucheng on mobile QQ.
As the New Year approached, many people came to the Qin family to give gifts. Qin Haowen was not at home. Qin Mucheng had to stay at home to receive the guests.
Therefore, his conversation with Ji Yuanyuan was also very casual.
âMy mother thinks that February 16th is a good day and wants to get engaged to us on that day.â
Ji Yuanyuan glanced at the calendar. February 16th was the 22nd of the first month of the lunar calendar.
The lunar and solar calendars were even-numbered, so the days should be good.
âThen letâs wait for Auntie and Mom to discuss it. Iâm fine with anything. It was Monday, so I could ask for leave from the counselor.â
After waiting for a while, Qin Mucheng did not reply. He probably went to entertain the guests.
Ji Yuanyuan put down her phone and went out to play with Zhang Junâs youngest son.
After spending the New Year with the Zhang family, Li Xu and Zhang Kun brought the children back to B City.
They left with Li Miao and Gong Wenbai.
Gong Wenbai was quite busy at the company. He only returned home on the 28th of December before the new year.
After staying home for a few days, he had to return..
