Madam Liu unhappily said, "This split is unfair. My son and daughter-in-law should also get a share."
The governor said, "If your son and daughter-in-law want a share, the share should come from yours. It shouldn't come from his grandparents."
Madam Liu kicked up a big fuss and acted shamelessly.
Tian Zhuangzhu slammed the table again. "If we are going to split, then just do it. Otherwise let's forget it altogether. Whoever obstructs the separation will do the chores."
Madam Liu immediately got up, "Of course we'll split. Why wouldn't we? You're not going to have the chance to order me around like a slave! Let's split!"
Hence they split up and each family managed on their own.
As a result, Yuehong and Yuelan, who had always been pampered and lived the life of little misses, now had to work. Yuehong was getting married at the end of the year, so she stayed in her room to embroider her dowry. Therefore, only Yuelan and Madam Ma did the housework in their residence.
At this point, Yuelan saw the two girls entering the house. She didn't recognize them for a moment and said, "Who are you?"
Wunian smiled innocently and called out, "Big Sister Yuelan, I'm Wunian."
"Wunian! No, how can you be Wunian! Father, Mother, Grandpa, Grandma, come out and take a look! This girl claims herself to be Wunian!"
Yuelan retreated in fear. Madam Ma came running, asking, "What's wrong? What's wrong, Yuelan?"
Yuelan pointed at Wunian and Juxiang. Madam Ma was also shocked when she saw them. Back then, Tian Tieshan and Weixin were the ones who removed Wunian from the residence.
Everyone filed out when they heard the noise. Tian Tieshan and Tian Weixin saw Wunian and said, "That's impossible. We clearly saw you being taken away by an eagle. It's impossible that you survived."
Juxiang was infuriated. "Why? Does Second Uncle rather my little sister to have been eaten?"
Weixin pointed at Juxiang and said, "You, you're Juxiang? How did you manage to come back? You escaped, right?! You're a dead slave, you escaped slave."
Madam Wang pointed at the two sisters and said, "You two b*tches have the cheek to come back! Why didn't you die out there? The heavens seem to treat you well!"
Wunian held Juxiang's hand and said as they walked in, "That's right! The heavens treat us very well indeed. How would I be able to see you guys again otherwise! Since we're back, hurry up and prepare a room for us to stay!"
Madam Wang, Madam Liu, Madam Ma, and the others could not believe their ears. Madam Wang pointed at Wunian and scolded, "You b*tch, you've grown so bold as to dare order me to arrange accommodation for you!"
Young Madam Wang went up to Madam Wang and said, "Grandma, it's good that they're back. Look, all of us have been exhausted in the past few years. Xiaobao also needs someone to serve him. Grandma, don't you think so?!"
Only then did Madam Wang realize that indeed, it was good that they were back. It would mean two more servants at home. Madam Liu and Madam Ma also responded, gushing, "Juxiang will stay with us, family of the second son."
Madam Liu objected anxiously, "How can we do that? Juxiang is the older child and Wunian, the younger. It's only reasonable for the elder child to stay with the family of the eldest son and the younger to stay with the family of the second son."
"Alright, whatever! As long as there are people doing the chores." Madam Ma felt that she was being very magnanimous.
Wunian said nonchalantly, "Why are you allocating us? Can none of you hear what I say?"
Wunian looked at Tian Zhuangzhu and said with a smile, "Old Master, do you hear me?"
In Tian Zhuangzhu's ears, this voice was like a tsunami that made him tremble in fear.
The others did not feel anything. Madam Wang pointed at Wunian and was about to hit her for daring to speak to her elders like this.
Tian Zhuangzhu hurriedly walked forward and slapped Madam Wang. This slap stunned everyone except Wunian and Juxiang.
Didn't you hear her? Go prepare their accommodation!
"Old man, are you crazy? Give them…"
"Are you looking for another slap?"
Madam Wang reluctantly got Madam Liu and Madam Ma to get ready a room.
Wunian then added nonchalantly, "I wish to stay in the main residence."
Madam Wang was about to scold her again when Tian Zhuangzhu immediately covered her mouth.
Wunian continued, "The biggest room!"
Wasn't that Madam Wang's and Tian Zhuangzhu's room? Madam Liu found it strange that Tian Zhuangzhu had suddenly given in to that girl so much! She was about to speak when Wunian then looked at Madam Liu and Madam Ma and said, "Why, do Madam Liu and Madam Ma have objections?"
Ah! That voice sounded the same in Madam Li's and Madam Ma's ears, as it did in Tian Zhuangzhu's. They were extremely frightened, as if they were standing at the threshold of a calamity and their souls were leaving their bodies.
Madam Liu and Madam Ma obediently went to move Tian Zhuangzhu and Madam Wang's things out.
