"But this will cost a lot of money." Mrs. Lu still felt a little distressed. "The backyard at home is quite big. If it's not enough, we can get some money outside."

The old lady still felt that it was not cost-effective to rebuild the house. Besides, the old house was built by her and her old man with great effort, and she was reluctant to give it all to the eldest son all at once.

Lu Qianqian stepped forward and hugged Old Lady Lu's wrist, saying coquettishly, "Mom, my daughter can make money now, so I want to honor you. You were always good to me before, and now that I have the ability, I want you to live well and eat well. Later, I will buy a few maids to serve you and let you live a good life."

Old Mrs. Lu was so happy to be coaxed by Lu Qianqian that she couldn't help herself. Old Man Lu beside her was also very happy.

"Old lady, listen to Qianqian. If you want to rebuild the house, then build a new one. This old house will be given to the eldest wife. When the family is divided, take out some money from the eldest wife's share and use it as the money to build a house for us two old people."

Old Man Lu had just thought a lot. Originally, they lived with the old family and could ask them to help with some things, but after thinking about it, it didn't make sense.

If the family is divided up, it is each family's business. If the head of the family has the intention, they can help even if they don't live together, and not living together can also make many things more convenient.

He also didn't want the same kind of thing that happened in his second brother's family to happen again. His daughter was capable, and he didn't want the brothers to become unhappy over trivial matters.

Old man Lu from the second son's family has given up. The eldest son is an honest and simple man, and his wife is usually hardworking and taciturn. If she treats Qianqian well, Qianqian will not treat them unfairly.

As for the third son's family, Old Man Lu didn't need to think too much. The third son would definitely take the imperial examination. With his knowledge, it should not be difficult for him to pass the examination and become a juren. With the help of the Chen family, entering an official career was an inevitable result.

After hearing what Old Man Lu said, Old Lady Lu stopped talking and was still thinking about how to get some money from her sons tomorrow.

Even after the family split up, Old Lady Lu still sided with Lu Qianqian, thinking about how to prevent her from suffering any loss.

The Lu family was in complete silence because of this incident, and no one dared to speak during meals.

Lu Zhenghui was still thinking about talking to his parents about the division of the family property during the meal, but seeing his parents' attitude of not wanting to talk to him, he could only eat in silence.

The next day, after breakfast, Old Man Lu asked Lu Zhengguo to invite the village chief and Li Zheng over.

In Xinghua Village, the Lu family is a big family, and basically everyone has relatives of varying degrees.

Lu Yong, the village chief of Xinghua Village, is Old Man Lu’s cousin. Li Zheng Lu Jun is the grandson of Old Man Lu’s third uncle, and it can be said that he grew up playing with Old Man Lu.

It’s just that Mr. Lu embarked on a career in officialdom, while Old Man Lu became a servant in a wealthy family.

When Lu Yong and Lu Jun arrived, both of them looked unhappy.

I learned from Lu Zhengguo that old man Lu's family was going to split up. Nowadays, people rarely split up their families while their parents are still alive, so when they knew that the Lu family was going to split up, they all disagreed.

Along the way, Lu Yong talked to Lu Zhengguo all the way. Lu Zhengguo listened with his head down and did not dare to say anything.

"Two elder brothers are here, please come in and sit down." When Old Mrs. Lu saw them coming, she hurriedly greeted them.

The two of them entered the main room, and almost everyone in the Lu family was already in the room.

Lu Yong looked around and sat down with a sullen face.

"Agen, what are you doing? Why are you dividing the family property?"

Lu Jun also disagreed, "Brother Yong is right. You are living a good life, and you are talking about dividing the family. Look at your sons, they have all started families and are waiting to enjoy the good life. What's the point of dividing them?"

As soon as the two came in, they started talking to Old Man Lu without any further ado.

Old Man Lu sighed and did not hide it. Lu Yong and Lu Jun were not outsiders, and there was no such thing as a family disgrace that should not be made public.

"Brother, Jun, it's not that I want to split up the family, but there's really no other way. The children are all grown up and have their own ideas. It would be troublesome to live together again."

When Lu Yong and Lu Jun heard this, they were shocked. Aren’t Lu Zhengguo’s children very filial? Of course, except for Lu Qianqian, the troublesome daughter.

"Are they the ones who treat you badly? There is no need to split up. Just tell me and I will help you teach them a lesson." Lu Yong said.

Before Old Man Lu could say anything, Old Lady Lu spoke first.

"Brother, you don't know. Our family is so unlucky that we married such an ungrateful daughter-in-law. Now our son won't listen to us and doesn't want to divorce his wife. Then we can separate the family. We don't want to live with a thief every day."

Old Mrs. Lu spoke the truth without any politeness. Liu Zhaodi had already reduced her presence, and when she heard what her mother-in-law said, her face turned pale.

Thief?

Lu Yong and Lu Jun had different expressions. No family likes a daughter-in-law who is on the side of her parents. However, Lu Yong and Lu Jun did not think it was that bad. They would not say anything if the daughter-in-law sometimes went back to her parents' home to bring some things.

But as Old Mrs. Lu said, it is not okay to steal things and bring them to your parents' home without telling your in-laws.

Lu Jun frowned. People in the village knew a little about the daughters-in-law of the Lu family. Chen Xin was a newly married bride, and the Chen family was a wealthy family, so they would definitely not be interested in anything from the Lu family.

Then there are only the other two. Since Lin Gui married into the Lu family, she has always been quiet and hardworking, and she has a good reputation in the village. Only the one from the second family is lazy and likes to eat.

"What's wrong with Zhengjun? Did your wife really do this?" Lu Yong spoke directly to Lu Zhengjun.

When asked this by the village chief, Lu Zhengjun lowered his head even lower, but in his heart he felt a little resentful towards his parents.

It's just a small matter. Zhaodi already knows she was wrong. Why do her parents keep harping on this matter?

Seeing Lu Zhengjun lowering his head and not speaking, Mrs. Lu snorted coldly, "I said at the beginning that I don't agree with this marriage. You chose this woman yourself. Now that she has done something wrong, you should bear the consequences yourself. Your father and I gave you a choice. You chose Liu Zhaodi yourself, so let's separate. I don't want my daughter's hard-earned research to go to an ungrateful person."

Speaking of this matter, Lu Jun remembered what his wife told him yesterday when she came back.

Or it can be said that the entire Xinghua Village now knows that Lu Qianqian from the Lu Gen family has become a master gardener.

"Agen, has your Qianqian really become a gardener?" Lu Jun asked in disbelief.

At this time, Old Man Lu's expression improved. Now Lu Qianqian was his pride, and telling others about it would only be a matter of face.

"Yes, Qianqian awakened her talent a few days ago. Old man, go get some mangoes and guavas for the village chief and Li Zheng to taste."
