Before the house was raided, the maidservant of the Prime Minister's residence absconded with t

After all, the two brothers had thought about this many times.

But filial piety weighed heavily on him.

Moreover, his grandparents are still alive, and if his parents were to separate from the family, they would definitely be gossiped about behind their backs.

Their custom is that the family doesn't separate while the parents are still alive, unless the parents voluntarily separate them.

"I wholeheartedly agree!"

Liu Tiechui was the first to express his opinion.

"I think only by dividing the family can our eldest son's branch have a chance to rise in status!"

I can do farm work, and I can also chop firewood to sell.

My second brother is a hunter, and he can sell his prey for money.

Dad just needs to do the farm work.

Our family will gradually find ways to make our lives enjoyable and fulfilling.

At least now that the family has separated, my mother won't be bullied by my grandparents and my aunts anymore.

Liu Tiezhu nodded, his tone steady yet firm: "I agree as well."

Grandpa and Grandma have been favoring the second wife for a long time; we're treated worse than servants in the house.

Even if it's tough and tiring to live separately, at least you'll feel more at ease.

Our eldest son's family gets up before dawn every day to work, eats the least, and does the most work.

Tao'er nodded in satisfaction; her two brothers' attitudes were even better than she had expected.

"My eldest and second eldest brothers have no objections. Father and Mother, what about you two?"

What are your thoughts?

Tao looked at her parents, but lingered on her adoptive father the longest.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhang Su'e nodded, "Tao'er, Mother has no objection."

"Your mother is just worried that your grandparents and the people from the third and fourth wives' families won't agree."

"Mother, as long as you agree, I have a way to handle the rest."

"Father, and what about you?"

Tao asked again.

Liu Tiezhu and Liu Tiechui also looked at their father.

"I……

I'll listen to you.

Liu Daniu glanced at his wife, as if he had made up his mind.

"Okay, but we can't bring up the division of the family ourselves. If we do, the Wang family will definitely not agree."

Not only will they disagree, but the other families will also disagree.

"Ah, getting Grandpa and Grandma to bring up separating the family property is probably harder than climbing to heaven!"

Liu Tiezhu shook his head and said.

"Little sister, that's simply impossible, unless the sun rises in the west."

Liu Tiechui shook his head like a rattle drum.

"Tao'er, your grandparents definitely won't bring up the idea of ​​separating the family."

Zhang Su'e felt it was very, very difficult.

"Tao'er, our eldest son's family is the main force in the work, and your second brother is the main source of income for the family."

"How could your grandparents possibly want to separate us out on their own?"

"Father, Mother, Eldest Brother, Second Brother, don't worry, I have a way to get them to bring up the idea of ​​dividing the family property."

"What method?"

Everyone asked in unison.

Tao lowered her voice, her eyes shining, "Next, we'll do this..."

Inside the house, the family sat together, heads close together, talking in hushed tones.

"It's getting dark now, eldest brother, second brother, we should go to the main room for dinner."

Tao'er looked at the sky outside, stood up and said.

"Father and Mother, stay in the house and don't go anywhere."

You can eat inside; I'll have Qingge bring it over later.

Tao'er and her two brothers walked into the courtyard. She waved and said, "Ayan, Huanhuan, come and greet your Tiezhu and Tiechui brothers."

"Hello, Brother Tiezhu!"

"Hello, Brother Hammer!"

The two children shouted in unison.

They were playing in the yard and didn't come inside.

Liu Tiezhu and Liu Tiechui were dumbfounded. Where did these two beautiful New Year picture dolls come from?

They both looked at Tao'er, "Little sister, who are these two children...?"

"Big brother, second brother, I'll explain later. Let's go have dinner now."

The two nodded. "Okay, let's eat first."

The two men each picked up a child and walked towards the main room in the front yard.

When they arrived at the main room, they found that the family was already eating.

They were divided into two tables, one for the men and one for the women and children.

When Tao'er went inside, she saw that half of the dishes had already been eaten. It was obvious that they had started eating early and had no intention of letting them have dinner at all!

Wang gave them a disdainful look and said sarcastically, "Stop looking, I didn't cook dinner for you tonight."

No work, no food; that's the Liu family's rule.

Tiezhu and Tiechui, these two wild vegetable buns are for you two. Take them and eat them in your room!

"Don't stand there, you're annoying me."

Wang handed Liu Tiechui a broken bowl, inside which were two small wild vegetable buns, each about the size of a child's fist.

"Oh, Wang, if that's how you put it, then let me explain."

Liu Sanniu and Liu Jiaojiao, as well as you two elders, Aunt Wei, and the others, did they all work today?

Besides my two older brothers and my parents, my second uncle and aunt were the only ones who did the work.

The rest of them didn't do any work, so why did they get food?

Tao'er pointed at them and asked loudly.

Wang was momentarily at a loss for words; indeed, none of them had done any work!

"I'm in charge of this household, and I can feed whoever I want!"

That's none of your business.

"Today you are disobedient and unfilial, sending your people to beat your grandmother. You still want to eat? No way!"

Wang Shi acted arrogantly, thinking that since she held the power to manage the household, she was not afraid that the eldest son's family would not submit.

"Grandpa, is that what you think too?"

My parents are still injured, and instead of providing them with some good nutrition, they're not even being fed?

And you won't even feed my granddaughter on her first day back?

Liu Laogen glared at Wang Shi. He had already said that this wouldn't work; that girl would definitely cause trouble.

Now look, as expected, this girl won't swallow her anger.

"Cough cough..."

Peach Girl, that was indeed the rule in our family before.

Your third aunt forgot to cook your rice tonight.

Otherwise, just bear with it tonight, and I'll definitely have them cook rice for you tomorrow morning.

Is this okay?

"Of course...no!"

If they won't let us, the eldest son's family, eat, then none of you will eat.

Tao'er sneered and directly ordered Qingge, "Qingge, flip the table."

"Okay, girl!"

"You little brat, how dare you?"

The next moment, Qingge walked over and overturned both tables.

Crash! Bowls and chopsticks shattered on the floor, soup splattered everywhere, accompanied by the cursing and swearing of the Wang family.

After finishing her sentence, Tao'er led her two older brothers and Qingge away.

"Little sister, give these two wild vegetable buns to the two children!"

"It's okay for us adults to skip a meal, but these two are still so young, they can't go without food."

Liu Tiezhu divided the two vegetable buns between Ayan and Huanhuan.

"Brother, Ayan and the others won't eat these wild vegetable buns."

You don't need to eat; we'll eat white rice and meat.

"When I came back this time, I bought a lot of things in the county town."

Actually, she took them all out of her spatial storage.

"But I have to cook later, otherwise it won't be good if they find out."

People in ancient times went to bed early and got up early, usually around eight o'clock.

"Second brother, secretly take the rabbit and pheasant you hunted today to the riverbank, kill them, and clean them thoroughly. Be careful not to get caught."

"Okay, it's dark now, there's no one by the river, so we won't be discovered."

When I got back, I carried my basket to the riverbank.

In the past, prey was mostly sold for money and rarely eaten.

At most, Wang would buy some fatty meat to fry into pork cracklings, but it was mostly her aunt, third and fourth brothers, and her nephews who ate it.

Back inside, Tao'er told her parents what had happened.

Then they took out two packets of mung bean cakes and gave two pieces to each person.

"Father, Mother, eldest brother, second brother, you should eat the mung bean cake first to fill your stomachs."

We'll cook later.

Everyone quickly ate the mung bean cake; it was the first time they had ever tasted such a precious pastry.

Her parents and two older brothers all had doubts, but they all tacitly refrained from asking Tao'er. They just felt that Tao'er must have had some great fortune outside, otherwise why would she still have maids taking care of her?

Just as everyone finished eating the mung bean cakes, there was a knock on the door.

Liu Tiezhu got up to open the door, and everyone immediately showed an unhappy expression.
