"Father, mother!"

Only then did Wei Sixian realize the seriousness of the matter.

She knelt in front of the two elders.

"I was wrong. I really didn't mean to force Qingya to go to a nunnery. I just... I just didn't want to affect the reputation of the He family because there were four girls in the He family who hadn't talked about marriage yet. I really didn't mean to force her, and I didn't want to be the boss of the He family."

Old Mrs. He narrowed her eyes.

"You didn't think about it? But you didn't even think about it, and you bypassed me and the second brother and became the master of Qingya. This is enough to prove that you are used to it. Separating you is also a way to fulfill your wishes. You don't have to worry about the He family affecting the reputation of the eldest brother and Daya. So let's do this."

He Huaizhang suddenly burst into tears.

"I get it. You just despise me for having no future and for not knowing that my brother-in-law is gone. Father, mother, do you think highly of the second, fifth, and sixth sons? Dividing the family at this critical moment, isn't that like someone stabbing me in the back?"

Mr. He sighed.

"Boss, we both know how the He family treated you and how you gave back to the He family over the years. If we really want to make it clear, you know who is the one who is embarrassed. Since your mother wants to separate you and live your own lives, I advise you to listen to your mother."

He Huaizhang understood the last sentence.

If they refused to split up and refused to leave, then He Huaizhang was not being split up but being driven away.

After He Huaizhang glanced at He Qiudi, his gaze fell on Old Lady He.

"Mother, is this really your idea?"

Old Lady He said, "Don't look down on your little sister. It was my idea to split up the family. Wei was afraid that Erya would affect the reputation of Daya and you, and you always felt that living in Shiliu Village would be inconvenient for you to go to the government office. So I simply separated you and let you live alone. The He family gave you up. You are a teacher, and for so many years, I have never asked you to give back to the He family. I am doing you a favor."

He Huaizhang sighed.

"My son knows."

It's better to separate and move out.

The West is not safe.

He went to the yamen every day and had to come back to Shiliu Village. He was terrified every day, fearing that the Xirong people would attack him.

Mr. He said, "Since you have agreed to divide the family, then it's easy to talk about. Over the years, you have never brought your salary home, and you still have the money earned from the He family's grocery store. I won't ask you for money, and you can't share the He family's money."

"In the old house of the He family, the rooms you usually live in will be left for you. When your mother and I grow old, this row of the main house will be divided among you. As for the other rooms of the He family house, they will be left to your four brothers. When they divide the family, they will be divided separately. Do you have any objections? As for the pension for me and your mother, you and your wife can each give five taels per year. I don't ask you to take care of other things."

He Huaizhang: "You won't give me any of the money in the family?"

Mr. He: "Did you earn even one tael of the He family's money? You want a share of the money? Sure. Take out all the salary you should have paid back to the He family over the years. Also, settle the grocery store accounts and make up for the money you didn't pay back. Only then will you be qualified to share the current money of the He family. If you have a conscience, you shouldn't mention it."

He Huaizhang wanted to say something but was stopped by Wei Sixian.

At this point, there is nothing Wei Sixian doesn't understand.

The He family had long harbored resentment against the couple.

I didn't have a quarrel with them before, but it was because He Huaijin and He Huaibi hadn't passed the imperial examinations, and He Huaiping hadn't become an official.

Now that the He family has other things to rely on, there is no room for them.

Even if she wasn't targeting He Qingya, she would kick everyone out of their house tomorrow for other reasons.

Generally, elderly people live with the eldest child in the family.

My mother-in-law made this decision because she must have been fed up.

Wei Sixian suddenly realized that she really shouldn't have been fooled by He Qiudi and took the He family's soap to Wei County in order to make money.

The reason why her mother-in-law was so dissatisfied with her was probably because of this matter.

She gathered all her thoughts and said, "Father, mother, the master has always been filial. Since you two elders suggest that our family of four go their separate ways, we will not argue with you on how to divide the family. But... we have no place to live in the city now, mother, what do you think?"

Old Lady He said, "You can save up enough money to buy a big house, so why don't you have a way out? There are grocery stores and real estate in Wei County, right? Sell the ones in Wei County and buy this one."

Wei Sixian subconsciously said, "Wei County was destroyed, and everyone in the city ran to Ningyuan County. The properties there can't be sold."

Speaking of the latter part, Wei Sixian hurriedly stopped the car and changed the subject, saying: "Besides, my daughter-in-law is in Wei County and has no property."

"You don't have any property, but you're reluctant to come back? The fifth and sixth sons passed the imperial examinations and both asked you not to come back. What do you want to do by staying in Wei County? Do you really want me to write to Huai Ping and ask him to check? Now that your brother is gone, I think Huai Ping can find out whether you have any property in Wei County."

Wei Sixian didn't dare to say anything.

Although the real estate in Wei County cannot be sold now.

But if He Huaiping were to investigate, he would find out that she had bought a grocery store and a house in Wei County over the years.

It cost more than three hundred taels of silver.

This money was all earned by the He family grocery store.

If the He family asked her for the more than three hundred taels of silver, she would really be in tears.

He Huaizhang said, "The properties in Ningyuan County are cheap now, let's buy one ourselves. Xianniang, take Daya to pack up. Tomorrow, we will go back to the city together."

After saying that, he kowtowed to Mr. He and Mrs. He.

"Father, mother, please take care of yourselves. It's my son's fault that he made you sad."

Old Mrs. He turned her eyes away and didn't look at him again.

Grandma He didn't want to see her eldest son, whom she loved so much, end up in such a situation.

While the three brothers Huaizhang, Huaiping and Huai'an have not yet fallen out, separate Huaizhang first.

Maybe, we can still preserve that little bit of brotherhood.

In the room, He Qingshu followed Wei Sixian to pack their luggage.

He Qingshu was unwilling to accept it: "Mother, are we really going to leave the He family like this? When we were relying on the eldest wife, everyone came to curry favor with us. Now that my second uncle has become an official, he can't wait to kick us out."

Wei Sixian smiled sadly and said, "People are gone and tea is forgotten, isn't that the truth? Without your uncle, the He family dares to bully us. In the past, let alone He Qingya entering a brothel, I would decide to send her to a nunnery, even if she made me unhappy and sold her, your grandma would not say a word."

After that, she hugged He Qingshu and said, "Qingshu, you must remember the insult the He family gave us today. You must work hard and marry His Royal Highness. This is our only way out."

He Qingshu lowered her head in disappointment: "But, I..."

"There's nothing to say but. Qingshu, you're no worse than your aunt. If she can do it, why can't you? After all, the Crown Prince is just a young boy who has just begun to fall in love. It's not difficult to win him over. The women of the He family are just good-looking. You have to make good use of your beauty, don't you understand? Even if the family is divided, it will make it easier for you to get close to him."
