Chapter 616:1 Can Only Bear It

Ji Zixuan reached out and gently rubbed Ji Yuanyuan’s head, just like when he was young, “Don’t take everything on yourself. This matter has nothing to do with you.”
His sister’s 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.
“Why are we splitting up? Have you had enough good days?” Li Zhiming coughed and said helplessly.
Li Lei’s attitude was very firm, “Father, Mother, I want to split.”
“What’s the difference between now and a branch family? You don’t have to care about the greenhouse and the farmhouse. The money will be divided equally and transferred directly to your account.” 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.
“Since it’s no different from splitting up, then let’s just split up. I’m different from Xiao Yong. I don’t want to farm anymore. I want to do something else.”
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 couldn’t 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 didn’t want to lose such a reputation.
■■We don’t have to farm now. We’ve already hired people…” Liu Guihua wanted
to say something more.
Li Zhiming said, “That’s enough, damn it.”
Liu Guihua looked at Li Zhiming curiously, “Old man…”
Li Zhiming said, “The 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. It’s better to take advantage of the fact that the two of us are here to separate the family quickly.”
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.
“Father, what are you talking about? You and <other are in good health. You will definitely live to a hundred years old.” 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.
“But this family can’t be separated just because they say so. It’s almost the New Year. We can wait until after the New Year to talk about splitting up. Li Zhiming looked around and asked gloomily.
“No.” 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 couldn’t stay any longer.
The next day, the family went to Zhang Kun’s parents house.
Compared to the Li family, the Zhang family’s 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 didn’t 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 Zhenghao’s 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 didn’t 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 couldn’t do anything to him.
Occasionally, for the sake of peace and quiet, he would also give the Wei
family’s 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.
“Call the police. Even if the police come, they will only give a few warnings. He didn’t break any laws, so they couldn’t really hold him tight. My parents are still here. Besides, I still have to rely on these few acres of greenhouses to earn money.” While chatting, Zhang Yao sounded very helpless.
“We’re all people who know the law, so we can’t do those violent things. So now, Eldest Wei was like a piece of meat on a knife. There was nothing he could do.”
“If you ask me, no matter how much trouble he makes, don’t give him a single cent. If he can’t taste the sweetness, he probably won’t look for you in less than half a year. You two just can’t put down your pride and always compromise.” Zhang Yao said helplessly, “It’s easy to say. The buyer is negotiating the price for us. He’s not letting us off. The business would be ruined if we didn’t send him away.”
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, “Then 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.
“My mother thinks that February 16th is a good day and wants to get engaged to us on that day.”
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.
“Then let’s wait for Auntie and Mom to discuss it. I’m fine with anything. It was Monday, so I could ask for leave from the counselor.”
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 Jun’s 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..
