When Tian Yuqiao had just arrived at her house, she immediately saw that the Tian Family Old Residence Courtyard was bustling with noise and excitement, dark figures gathering around.

Tian Yuqiao pushed her way through the crowd on both sides.

"Sis, we're going to chase all three of us out, wuu …

"What, your father left you three girls at home and didn't care about it. Does he still want us two old men to help him feed his wife and children?" Madame Lee said angrily.

"Exactly, there is no one in the second house who can do heavy work, and they are all being supported by us. Isn't this a bit too unfair?" "I say, Village Head, since we have already decided on this, you should just agree to it. After all, isn't this just a piece of paper belonging to a branch family?"

Wang Heng glared at Madame Gao and ignored her. He then turned around and looked at the dumbstruck Madame Wang.

"Village Chief, my mother was so agitated by them that she didn't speak anymore. She spent quite a lot of money to pay for the soup these days. They want us to split up. Alright, let my mother settle the bill first."

Tian Yuqiao raised her face and looked straight into the Village Head's eyes.

"That's right, Qiao Er is right. It's fine if they want to split their families, but you have to pay all the soup fees that they should pay before splitting the profits."

"That's right, this Tian family is too outrageous. They kicked out the orphans and widows like that. Aren't they afraid that Lao Er of the Tian family might have done something to them, so they came to settle the score with her in the middle of the night?"

When Madame Lee heard that, the flesh on her face jumped a few times. She was still full of reverence towards ghosts and gods, and she was really worried that Er'er would come find her.

"Little Four is about to take the Elementary Scholar examination. The three of them are making a ruckus in the yard all day, affecting the career of Lao Si. Which one of you can afford to take it?"

"No one said anything about disagreeing with your division, but Qiao Er was right. Previously, Qiao Erniang borrowed some silver from me for a total of one to two to eight silver taels. You can return the silver taels first." Dr Lin had a serious expression.

Madame Lee was enraged that she had spent so much money on it.

"These are all borrowed from that bastard, Yutang, in private. I didn't go to borrow them, so I have to return the money to him."

"Oh? Is there anyone that unreasonable? "That money should have been yours to begin with. After all, you did not split up. Daughter-in-law was sick, and as a mother-in-law, you should have taken the money to give her medicine." Tian Juhua said angrily.

"Pfft, they secretly borrowed money from me to repay the debt. Then, why don't you ask them how many sons of mine Madame Wang gave me?"

Hearing her words, the surrounding people began to waver.

"I didn't expect Madame Wang to be so honest as to buy private property."

"Of course, since everyone is living together, the money she earns should be given to Grandma."

Seeing that things were not going well, Tian Yuqiao hurriedly interjected, "Milk, you said that my mother was saving for her private property. Do you have any evidence? If you can't provide any proof, then you are slandering my mother and tarnishing her reputation. "

"You damn girl, when adults talk, how can you interrupt? Get out of my way. " Madame Gao instantly assumed the posture of an elder.

"That's right, last time I saw your mother have a handkerchief, they were all able to be exchanged with money at the embroidery workshop."

Madame Gao's second son, Tian Yushang, hid behind his mother and dragged Tian Guihua into this mess.

"Yo, this osmanthus flower really owes me a lot."

"That's right. Her ten fingers are not stained with the Yang Spring Water, so she doesn't even care if someone else is embroidering something or not."

"She's already so young, yet she's already stirring up a family. If anyone marries her in the future …"

Seeing the spearhead suddenly pointing at her, Tian Guihua was so angry that she almost died. She slammed the door and returned to her room.

"Yes, the money must be in Lao Er's house."

Tian Yuqiao's eyes flickered as she thought to herself, Luckily she went to the town today and took away all of the embroidery work that Madame Wang had secretly received. Otherwise, it would have been hard to explain.

It was likely that Madame Wang occasionally used her embroidery skills to earn money in order to prevent the two siblings from starving to death.

Madame Lee greeted Madame Gao and Madame Jiang. Even Tian Dajiang was called in by her.

The thatched cottage could only fit so many people into it. After all, this was the place where one would turn and hit one's buttocks.

He rummaged through the entire house, and even Madame Wang's marriage case was opened, but there wasn't even a single copper coin.

"Where did that damn girl go just now?"

"Mother, she seems to have returned with the pillar. There's no doubt that she has money hidden on her body."

"Search."

"I forbid you to touch my sister." Tian Yutang came over to protect Tian Yuqiao while crying.

Tian Yuqiao winked at him. She wasn't worried. When she saw the large number of people at the back of the house, she had already secretly thrown in the Emptiness Realm.

Madame Gao roughly searched her body, but didn't find anything. She immediately became angry, "Mother, I'm guessing that this girl hid the silver coins away, maybe she hid them in a wolf's nest."

"Enough, Madame Gao. You're also a wife, don't go overboard in your actions." The Village Chief could no longer bear to watch and finally spoke.

Turning around, he said to Madame Lee, "Now that the house has been searched and the people have been searched by you, what else do you have to say for yourself?"

Madame Lee was scared stiff by the Village Head's cold gaze. She immediately turned to Old Master Tian and said, "Old man, you're the head of the family. What do you think we should do about this?"

Old Master Tian had gotten used to it. Every time his wife made things difficult for him, he would drag her out to wipe her butt.

"Village Chief, as I see it, we should split up this residence." We'll pay for Qiao Er's mother's medical fees. It's just that we don't know whether Lao Er is dead or alive, if we give her our family's land, she might marry into someone else with our Old Tian Family's property, and I will have to keep it for my son. "

"Then how are you going to divide it?"

Old Master Tian thought about it and said, "How about this, we continue to give them the room they live in. This house has a total of six hens laying eggs, so we give two to them." He would not give them the fields. He would wait for Lao Er to come back and see what he could say. As for the money, our situation isn't too good either. We can barely help them pay a couple of dollars, so we won't split the money with them. "

When Madame Lee heard this, she actually wanted to share two hens with them, which made her immediately seethe with anger. However, when she received the Old Man's warning gaze, she did not dare to say much.

"Master, if the land is not given to us, what about the food? It can't be that you don't want to share it with us, right? " Tian Yuqiao blinked innocently with her big eyes.

"This... He had just farmed in the autumn, so his harvest this year was mediocre. Your family has a small population and no strong men. The work in the fields is of no help to you. "Just divide it according to the number of people. Your mother will divide it into ten catties of sorghum rice and twenty catties of corn flour. The two of you will divide it into ten catties of black flour and ten catties of corn flour."
