Chapter 179: Are You Still Dissatisfied With How Chaotic the Family Is?

~4 min read 780 words

Liu's mother also felt the question she had asked was somewhat foolish: "It's all because Mom is useless, seeing how you were forced to this point, even..."

The words 'arguing with people' were simply impossible for her to say.

After all, if it weren't for her parents being useless, why would a young Miss like her have to step forward?

Liu Chuxue didn't need to think to know her mother was about to repeat the same old speech, so she quickly interrupted: "Anyway, we can't stay in the old house for many more days; this is good, saving us from them forcing their way in intentionally or unintentionally."

She had indeed been deliberate today; after all, the Liu family was now so poor they couldn't even lift the pot lid, and the old couple of the Liu family were hoping to reconcile with the Second Branch; how could she possibly give them a chance?

Seeing that the Second Branch had nothing to do with this side anymore, she said: "Let's go, you shouldn't stay here either; go over and keep my sister company, I'm not at ease leaving her alone over there."

Hearing these words, Liu's mother felt a wave of fear; fortunately, her eldest daughter had gone to the new house; if Xia Qiu had been at home just now and bumped or hurt her, she would have died of regret.

When the mother and daughter came out, they saw Qiu Shaofeng standing outside the crowd, protecting Xia Qiu.

Xia Qiu quickly stepped forward: "Mom, are you okay?"

To avoid worrying them, Liu's mother quickly waved her hand: "It's nothing; Liu Chuxue returned in time; Du Erya had just about to make a move when Liu Chuxue caught her red-handed."

Qiu Shaofeng had come back intending to intervene, but was stopped by a single look from Liu Chuxue.

He knew his sister-in-law meant well; after all, the troublemaker was a woman, and for a grown man like him to step in would truly be awkward to handle.

It was just that he hadn't expected his sister-in-law to not only be strong but also possess such remarkable skills; he couldn't help but think: when we get back, I must recount today's events to the family; not for any other reason, but to intimidate those in the family who want to bully my wife, so they don't one day have my sister-in-law storming over in a fit of anger, blaming me for not warning them.

Liu Chuxue looked at her own eldest sister: "Didn't I tell you not to come back?"

Xia Qiu knew her younger sister was worried about her: "Isn't it because I'm not at ease about you? I thought if anything happened, I could shout for Uncle Liangzi to come help."

Qiu Shaofeng walked a few quick steps: "After you threw that person out, I saw her coming over, so I've been guarding her ever since."

Liu Chuxue glanced at her brother-in-law protecting her sister; her satisfaction with this brother-in-law increased a bit more; at the very least, he was a man who doted on his wife and knew how to protect his sister.

After they left, Ge Shuanhu also felt he had lost face; the Ge family probably felt they had lost face too, and left while cursing; ironically, Liu Chuxue had indirectly helped the First Branch.

However, just as the Ge family had left, a new trouble arose from the Third Branch.

Su Hongjuan pushed Liu Shanling, who was still struggling: "You just promised; if this family isn't divided, I'll take Liu Lidong back to my maiden home; you decide."

Previously, not dividing the family was because there was profit to be gained; the household chores were mostly done by the Second Sister-in-law, and the parents-in-law held the family's money; she couldn't bear to, and couldn't refuse.

But now, the family savings had been stolen clean, the First Branch still had a mountain of troubles, and most importantly, back then to save the First Branch couple, Jian Dong borrowed five hundred yuan from the villagers; this money had nothing to do with them, so they didn't want to shoulder the First Branch's debt.

She felt that bringing up dividing the family now was the perfect opportunity.

The old couple, heartbroken that their eldest grandson had suffered today, were just cursing the Second Branch when they heard their youngest son stammer: "Dad, I want to divide the family."

The old Liu man looked up at his son with an unnatural expression, glaring at him angrily: "Are you still dissatisfied with how chaotic the family is? Or do you want to anger me to death?"
