Rebirth: The whole family travels through time together: Fubao Koi is busy eating melons

As for the Zhang family, after several days of conspiracy and planning, even the third son and his family, who rarely participated in family disputes, were specially recalled.

The family sat around the dim oil lamp in a solemn atmosphere, arguing endlessly until late at night, when they finally and reluctantly decided on a plan to divide the family.

In the plan, the distribution of benefits seems balanced, but in fact, there are hidden waves, and every word reveals calculation and reservation.

After everything was planned, the Zhang family specially sent someone to invite the respected village chief.

This elderly man usually has a headache about mediating family disputes, but out of responsibility, he still moves towards the Zhang family's gate step by step with the help of his son.

The old lady of the Zhang family spoke first, and she talked about the hardships of raising her children and grandchildren.

It was only until the village chief's ears were about to become callused from the repetitive words that she changed the subject and got straight to the point:

"Village Chief, we are really torn between the two solutions you proposed last time. We raised the second child with our own hands. Even if we didn't take good care of his children, we raised the youngest daughter until she was three years old after all..."

Before Mrs. Zhang could continue, the village chief interrupted her, "Don't mention Youniang anymore. You know all the sufferings she has endured in the Zhang family. In Zhangjia Village, which girl is thinner than her? And which girl has to shoulder the burden of the family before she grows up strong like her? There are two choices. Either we don't separate and work together, or we separate and become strangers to the second brother's family. If you are still hesitant, don't bother me again in the future."

Faced with the village chief's firm attitude, the Zhang family looked at each other, each with their own thoughts.

They had originally hoped to gain some practical benefits from the division of the family, but now they have gained nothing.

As the head of the family, Zhang Fu was unwilling but could only obey: "I will listen to the village chief. Let's divide the family today."

At this time, Hu Cuimei hurriedly interrupted, with a bit of cunning in her words: "You also agreed to divide the family before. After we divide the family, we can't let the second son's family take anything away. That big house must be kept for my parents to live on in their old age!"

Zhang Laoda echoed the words, revealing his covetousness for the family property: "Everything in the big house was earned by my parents' hard work, and belongs to the entire Zhang family. Even if the second brother and his family want to come back in the future, they can't take those items with them!"

As for the third son and his wife, they seemed rather silent.

In this division of the family, they knew very well that they had no chance of owning the big house, so they might as well go with the flow and let the big house fight for it while they watched the situation develop and perhaps could even make some small profits.

The village chief and his son Zhang Rui couldn't help but frown as they listened to the family's conversation.

They had never expected that the Zhang family could be so cruel that they were unwilling to leave even the most basic daily necessities to the second wife after the division of the family property.

"You mean we can't even touch a single piece of bedding in the house?"

This question seemed to echo in the air, leaving people chilled.

With a loud and deafening bang, the gate of the courtyard was kicked open suddenly. Along with the sudden sound, the sturdy door bolt seemed as fragile as a piece of paper and broke with a snap.

Who else but Xu Liyun could have made such a shocking opening statement!

The door was wide open, and six familiar figures came towards us. They strode into the Zhang family's yard with big strides.

For a moment, everyone in the Zhang family looked at each other with different expressions, some were stunned, some were panicked.

Old Lady Zhang's exclamation broke the brief silence: "You...were you not arrested by the government? Why didn't the officials get rid of you?"

There was disbelief and hidden worry in his words.

The corners of Xu Liyun's mouth curled up into an intriguing smile, with a hint of coldness.

Her eyes slowly swept over every member of the Zhang family, their gaze sharp and deep.

Those whose eyes touched shrank their necks involuntarily, as if their throats were strangled by invisible hands. The scenes in which they were overwhelmed by her wisdom and courage in the past came to their minds vividly, and the feeling of powerlessness surged into their hearts again.

Zhang Fu chose to remain silent and quietly hid behind his wife, as if as long as he closed his eyes, he could make himself completely invisible from the storm.

The always arrogant Boss Zhang instantly turned into a dumb gourd under Xu Liyun's gaze, and his previous arrogance disappeared without a trace.

Hu Cuimei tried to seek shelter from her husband, but found that Zhang Lao Da himself was also eager to hide, looking even more embarrassed.

As for the third son and his wife of the Zhang family, they took their children and hid in the corner of the yard. They silently thanked themselves for their wise move and were glad that they did not say too much at the critical moment.

Although she was terrified, Old Lady Zhang refused to admit defeat, and said with a powerful voice: "You guys got into trouble and just left, leaving us old people and children here. Can't we find a way to survive on our own? Besides, we are not the only ones in the village who have split up. I see that you brothers have already started your own families and have children. It's time for you to separate and live separately!"

As she got excited, Old Lady Zhang's tone became more resolute: "Now that you're back, and the village chief is here today, why not take this opportunity to divide up the family property clearly? From now on, you can each set up your own family, and stop crowding together with us and getting in the way!"

"No, mother!" Zhang Laoer was the first to stand up and object, his tone firm, "We have been hiding these days just to help Li Yun clear her name. Now that she is finally innocent, we are rushing back home, isn't it just to be filial to you two?"

As he spoke, he gently nudged his three children: "Go quickly, accompany grandpa, grandma and uncles, don't let them get angry and kick us out. If that happens, how can we live outside? Besides, we just got out of jail and may still have bad luck. Don't let this misfortune affect the two elders."

Upon hearing this, the children rushed forward and surrounded Old Lady Zhang and others. Even the young Xiao Youniang tried hard to break free from the adults' arms and staggered to get closer to her grandparents to show her filial piety.

Seeing this, Zhang Laoer would never stop his daughter's filial piety. As soon as the little girl landed on the ground, she staggered towards Grandma Zhang.

Seeing this, Old Lady Zhang was terrified and screamed, "Go away! Don't bring your bad luck to me! Get out of here, your whole family!"

At the mention of "bad luck", the Zhang family felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Everyone was trembling with fear, fearing that the invisible and intangible bad luck would haunt them. Especially Old Mrs. Zhang and her husband, who have always been the most superstitious. At this moment, they were so anxious that they even forgot their usual courtesy and etiquette.

Zhang Dawa tightly grasped the worn-out broom, with veins bulging on his arms, as if it was not a tool for sweeping up debris, but a spear to guard the territory. There was an inviolable fire burning in his eyes, and his whole body exuded a determination to drive his second uncle's family out.
