Hua Jiujiu glanced at Elder Madam Xu coldly. How could she not know what this family was up to?
"Grandpa, I don't want much. Just give us the money my father has handed over over the years. Give us the West Room, give us three acres of land, and give us a set of pots and pans. I also want one-sixth of the rice and noodles. Most importantly, give me my mother's indenture."
The more Hua Jiujiu spoke, the more the family's faces fell. This wretched girl wasn't splitting up, she was robbing them!
Actually, what Hua Jiujiu said was fair, but this family could not accept it.
After all, this was not a small sum.
"Eldest, as long as the main house is here, we're not splitting up. Don't mention splitting up again!" Old Hua immediately changed his attitude.
Hua Jiujiu sneered. She knew this would happen.
It was fine. She would find a good time!
"But Grandmother said that she wants to sell my mother." Hua Jiujiu looked like she was giving in.
Old Master Hua glared at Elder Madam Xu before smiling at Hua Jiujiu. "She was just saying it casually. It's impossible for her to really sell your mother out. Since she's our Hua family's daughter-in-law, she'll always be a member of our Hua family."
What a nice way of putting it. When did these people treat them as family?
"But my mother is sick," Hua Jiujiu continued.
Old Hua gritted his teeth. "Meili, give that bowl of rice to your second aunt-in-law."
"No!" How could Hua Meili be willing?
Old Hua glared at Elder Madam Xu. Elder Madam Xu pursed her lips. Even if she didn't accept it, she had to.
"Eat, eat, eat. All you know is to eat. Isn't a sickly person afraid of being stuffed to death?"
Then, she moved the rice in front of her to Hua Meimei. Clearly, she could not bear to see her daughter eat so little.
Then, she took the food from Third Brother's two daughters and poured more into her own bowl.
The two daughters of the Hua family did not dare to make a sound. They lowered their heads and silently held the almost empty bowl.
Third Brother Hua's wife's heart ached, but she did not dare to say anything. She just elbowed her husband, who was eating happily.
In the end, this silly man did not understand his wife's thoughts at all and kept eating.
He had done too much work today and was already starving.
Sigh, it was indeed more comfortable with Second Brother around. At least they could slack off.
It was all that woman's fault. She was so greedy that she caused Second Brother to fall to his death on the mountain!
This matter was temporarily over, but Hua Jiujiu could not really let it go.
She had to find a way to get his mother's indenture back!
However, she didn't know where Elder Madam Xu had hidden her mother's indenture.
Hua Jiujiu was thinking about something while eating, completely ignoring the strange atmosphere at the table.
After dinner, the three sisters carried their mother's food back to their room.
Elder Madam Xu kept cursing behind them.
Hua Jiujiu and the rest did not even listen.
"Sis, I'm not full yet," Hua Youyou said pitifully.
They were clearly not full yet, so why did Grandma still scold them?
"Be good. We'll eat when we get back to the house." Hua Jiujiu ruffled Youyou's long hair.
Hua Youyou's beautiful eyes immediately lit up.
After the few of them entered the house, Bai Zhi asked what had happened just now and Hua Jiujiu roughly told her.
Bai Zhi's eyes were filled with worry.
In the past, when her husband was still around, he was still protecting her… But now, she was afraid that she would really be sold at any time.
