Chapter 51: Eating Deliciously
Liu Sanjin’s face was deathly pale as she looked at her sons and daughters-in-law, her whole body trembling slightly and her heart somewhat shaky. Although her family had saved some money over the years and even received monthly allowances from her son Lu Zhenping, she still lived frugally because her maternal family was in dire straits and often needed her help.
"Jiahe, look around the village and see how many families are divided. Your eldest brother, influenced by that wretched woman’s pillow talk, wants to break up our family, and even uses your brother’s future to threaten me. My heart aches. How can you still be so thoughtless at this time?"
Usually, when Lu Jiahe heard her say this, he would soften, but today he did not; his attitude was very firm.
"Mom, if you don’t want to divide the family, then we won’t. You can’t force a cow to drink by pressing its head. You’re the mother-in-law, Shen Meng wouldn’t dare to criticize you. Even if she makes a fuss, it’s her reputation that will suffer. Isn’t it fine if your youngest son works as the warehouse manager at the production team?"
Liu Sanjin was choked up by his words, silently glancing at the front door. Old man, when will you come back? I’m being driven to my death by the children, it’s such a harsh fate that nobody hears my crying.
"Alright, alright, here, everything to everyone. Lao Si, go call the elders of the Lu Family, and also the village chief and Secretary, as well as your elder sister-in-law and Mingyang. Gather everyone, let’s divide the property, be clear about it, all divided. Second brother, mom is dividing for you now, if the eldest daughter-in-law wants the reserved land, then mom can’t make that decision."
Lu Jiahe frowned, not contradicting his mother, but in his mind, he was planning to get the reserved land for himself later.
Wu Xianglan was secretly delighted. She did not expect to benefit from the division of the eldest household. When looking at Lu Jiahe, she threw him a flirtatious look, tilted her head with a swagger, and pulled her two children closer, her face radiating an undeniable pleasure.
