Despite the pressure of filial piety, under the upheaval of the three brothers Fu Ankang, Qiao Qinghe made the final decision: to divide the family.
A separation agreement was produced: each family should contribute one hundred wen each month, half as a token of respect to the elders, and the other half for Sun Junyan's education.
Now, Qiao Xiaomai was reluctant to give this money. Considering this, Sun Junyan uttered those words.
Qiao Xiaomai sneered, "Uncle Five, you should ask if your brothers and their wives agree."
It was ridiculous to even suggest such a thing.
Zhu Cuiying, Zhao Shufen, and Wu Yinfeng's eyes darted around nervously. Zhu Cuiying subtly nudged Qiao Changfu, who softly coughed, trying to mediate, "Junyan, if Xiaomai doesn't want to give the money, let her be."
Although he was still living with Qiao Qinghe and the Sun family, his small family only had to contribute one hundred wen per month, the rest was theirs.
