After Marrying Him, the Ending Has Changed-Chapter 163 - We’re Not Dead Yet
Chapter 163: Chapter 163 We’re Not Dead Yet
Only Su Wanyu felt a surge of joy in her heart, for she too wished to divide the family assets and live independently, spending her days in whatever way she found most comfortable.
Jiang Changhai’s face displayed a seriousness never seen before as he said, “Mom, I’m serious. Although grandpa and grandma said I could have half the house before they passed, I know that Laosan and Laosi feel it’s unfair. So I don’t want this half of the house, consider it a token of my filial piety to you and dad.”
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone else’s eyes widened even further: they never imagined that Eldest, in order to get a division, was even willing to give up the family house!
The honest and simple Jiang Changhe immediately declared with a strong tone, “Eldest brother, I don’t feel that it’s unfair, nor do I feel taken advantage of.”
Their household earned more work points, but they also had the most mouths to feed, which naturally meant they consumed the most grain.
However, his Eldest brother was being too bold to bring up the division in front of their parents; it was something he had never even considered.
In her heart, Zhao Xiaojuan had thought about dividing the family. Not for anything else, but so her daughters could join them at the table and eat.
No matter if it was dry rice or porridge, they would eat whatever was available.
She and Changhe were both capable of enduring hardships and were hardworking, so even after dividing, feeding their family wouldn’t be a problem.
With some money saved up, she could even send her daughters to school.
These thoughts, though, she dared only keep to herself; she wouldn’t dare to bring it up, not for a hundred times the courage.
Jiang Changtao also said, “Eldest brother, we never spoke of wanting to divide the family.”
Eldest brother was too shrewd!
He had money and food coupons at his disposal now, naturally fearing that they would take advantage of him in return.
If it were him with that much in hand, he would want to divide the family too.

“Bullshit! Your wife mentioned dividing the family more than once,”
Jiang Changhai snorted coldly, pointing at Sun Lixia, “Just when I wanted to send Mianmian to school, she was mumbling about dividing the family, as if I was deaf and didn’t hear it.”
Sun Lixia, whose hypocrisy was exposed, hurriedly defended herself, “I, I was just not thinking straight, I didn’t really mean it.”
Back when Eldest’s family didn’t do their part and only slacked off, she certainly did want a division.
But now that Eldest’s family had such a large sum of money, she would be a fool to want to divide the family!
Eldest had no right to take all that money for himself!
Jiang Changhai didn’t care for these responses, instead, he looked straight at his parents, “Parents, as a tree grows, it branches out. It’s time for our large family to divide.”
Su Wanyu also looked on with anticipation, very much hoping that her father-in-law and mother-in-law would agree to divide the family as well.
“Your mother and I are not dead yet!”
Jiang Dashan slammed the table hard, glaring at him, “Eldest, do you think you’ve grown wings so strong that your mother and I can’t control you anymore?”
Jiang Changhai wasn’t afraid of his stern look and, with a considerate expression, responded, “Dad, don’t be angry. Look, this is for the good of our family. Otherwise, Laosan and his wife will always think you favor me. If this goes on for too long, it will definitely cause conflicts at home.”
Jiang Dashan gave him a sharp glance and said resolutely, “As long as your mother and I are alive for one more day, our family will not allow division.”
Zhang Guihua also showed her displeasure, “Your father is right. Since ancient times, families have not divided as long as parents are alive. Eldest, you always come up with your own ideas, rashly bringing up a division. Look how angry you’ve made your father.”
Now, living with her three sons, she reigned as the grand matriarch, managing the household finances and supplies, her spine straightened with authority.
But if the family were to be divided, no matter which son she ended up with, she would have to defer to her daughters-in-law.
