Chapter 1074: The Family Split Is Underway

Fu Yan Cheng's parents had originally expected the second daughter-in-law to speak up first, but they never thought the third daughter-in-law would jump the gun.

Fu's mother said with a cold face, "Your father hasn't finished speaking yet; what are you in such a hurry for?"

Zhang Yurong felt a surge of regret in her heart; she had been truly foolish today.

She could only say awkwardly, "Dad, please continue."

Fu's father glanced at everyone before continuing, "The living expenses you handed over before are all here; in total, it is 1,200 yuan. Adding that together makes 4,580 yuan."

After speaking, he glanced at everyone again: "You four brothers have all formed families now. Your mother and I will keep 580 yuan, since your younger sister has reached the age for marriage. The rest will be divided into four shares; each of your families gets 1,000 yuan."

Hearing they could get 1,000 yuan, the smile on Hao Yanhong's face was impossible to hide.

After exchanging glances, the brothers all stated they had no objections.

Fu Yan Cheng had originally wanted to say he didn't want the money and would leave it for his parents.

But he saw Fu's father shake his head at him: "Don't refuse this money either. Consider it startup capital for your small families from your mother and me. After all, I said that after the family split, you must move out."

Fu's eldest son and his wife clearly did not know about this matter. Fu's eldest uncle spoke first: "Second brother, what is going on? What do you mean by those words?"

Fu's father whispered to his own elder brother, "Big brother, I will explain this to you later."

Although Fu's eldest uncle had doubts, since his younger brother had said so, he did not ask further questions; after all, at their age, he believed his brother would not act recklessly.

Just then, Hao Yanhong spoke up: "Dad, I didn't mean to cause trouble before. Besides, I have already apologized. You wouldn't really be so cruel as to kick us out, would you?"

Fu's father stared at her with cold eyes: "You are the least qualified person to bring up this matter. Since the words have already been spoken, there is no possibility of changing them, at least for now."

Hao Yanhong was somewhat unwilling: "Then what about this house? How will it be divided?"

Fu's father's face turned cold immediately: "This house was purchased by your mother and me. I have no intention of dividing it among you right now. After your mother and I pass away, you five siblings can discuss it then; it won't be too late."

As soon as these words were spoken, not only did Hao Yanhong's eyes widen, but Zhang Yurong also spoke out: "Dad, what do you mean by those words?"

Fu's father cleared his throat: "I do not plan to divide this house for the time being..."

Zhang Yurong interrupted him: "Not that sentence; the last sentence."

Fu's father paused for a moment: "The last sentence?"

He thought back to what he had just said and immediately understood the meaning: "Yes, I was referring to you five siblings. Do you have any objections?"

Zhang Yurong was truly anxious now: "Dad, do you mean that your younger daughter also has a share in this house?"

Fu's father looked at his sons: "Your sister has a share in this house. Do you have any objections to this?"

In front of their eldest uncle, the men quickly replied, "We have no objections."

But once those words were spoken, only the eldest, Fu Yanming, and the fourth, Fu Yan Cheng, were sincere.

The second and third sons actually did not quite agree with their father's approach, but since the house belonged to their parents and their younger sister was the only girl in the family, spoiled by their parents and four older brothers since childhood, giving her a share was something they could accept.

But Hao Yanhong exploded immediately: "Mom, Dad, you wanted a few days of peace after we upset you, so kicking us out, I can understand. But where is the precedent for a daughter coming back to divide her natal family's property?"

Fu Yanwan clearly did not expect this turn of events. Fearing her brothers and sisters-in-law would cause a scene over this, she quickly spoke up: "Mom, Dad, I appreciate your intentions, but I will not accept this house."
