"Mother, what do you an by saying our second branch can just move out if we want to split?" Zhao Shi was stunned.
From the bottom of her heart, she hoped that what He Shi ant was not what she feared.
However, she wasn’t far off. He Shi spoke again, "Our family was already divided cleanly back when we were in the village. What do you an by not moving out?
This house and the title were all given by the Emperor to the Fourth. The family’s money was all earned by the Fourth and also from Xiaojiu’s filial piety to the two of us old ones.
You from the second branch have been eating and living here for years, and your father and I have decided that the Fourth will take a loss, and you won’t need to pay.
Wenyu also has his own house, so you don’t have to worry about not having a place to stay, just move your things out."
He Shi arranged everything with those words, leaving Zhao Shi utterly speechless.
"No... mother, you can’t be so biased..."
"I’m biased, yes, but I’m biased towards you. Tell , which part of what I said wasn’t fair? Isn’t the Fourth taking a loss in this matter?" He Shi retorted.
"No...but..."
He Shi’s words were true, but such a large house, worth tens of thousands of taels of silver, couldn’t all belong to the Fourth alone!
And just moving out like that without gaining anything in return, why should she have to agree?
The mindset of so people is sothing normal people can never understand.
Even Ye Qingzhi outside the door couldn’t listen any longer.
Stepping inside, Ye Qingzhi said, "Grandma is right, this family is supported by Fourth Uncle. The second branch has been freeloading for years, and you still want to split sothing?"
"I’m your mother, you ungrateful girl, whose side are you on?" Zhao Shi wanted to act out, but didn’t dare in front of He Shi.
Ye Qingzhi stubbornly turned her head, walked over, and grabbed Ye Jiu’s arm.
"Enough, there’s nothing more to say. If you want to move, then go ahead and do it now, and don’t bother notifying . This old lady has no patience to waste words with you right now," He Shi said.
"Move? I’m not moving." Zhao Shi left with a wave of her sleeve.
Wenyu, that boy, might have made sothing of himself, but he isn’t filial. I don’t know what’s wrong with him, he wasn’t like this when he was younger. He never listens to now and insists I’m causing trouble.
And that Liu Shi is no good either. I’m her mother-in-law, but just because I looked a few extra tis at her things, I get insulted by a maid for being ignorant.
Of course, Liu Shi didn’t say it to her face; Zhao Shi accidentally overheard it from the maid by Liu Shi’s side. Although Liu Shi scolded the maid on the spot, she didn’t punish her, which left Zhao Shi resentful.
Still, she wasn’t foolish enough to confront Liu Shi directly. Won raised in the capital city are cunning; she really wasn’t their match.
After Zhao Shi left, He Shi sighed, "This Zhao Shi will never change her greedy ways in this lifeti. She’ll suffer enough when she’s old!"
Ye Jiu had t Ye Wenyu’s wife, and she seed pretty docile. That’s all he knew.
However, hearing He Shi talk like that, he felt this Liu Shi wasn’t simple.
It doesn’t matter if she’s simple or not, as long as she harbors no ill will towards the Ye Family, it’s fine.
At the War Prince Residence, Sikong Yunshi was listening to the report from his subordinates, feeling like he was about to explode.
"What, the person was rescued, you bunch of useless fools, you caught them and now you let them be rescued..."
Bam!
The door shattered under Sikong Mo’s palm.
With the sound of heavy footsteps, those few people who were being berated by Sikong Yunshi were all restrained by the people Sikong Mo brought.
