Chapter 892: 892 had been planning this for a while.
“Rong’er…” Xiao Yishan was moved, “Just now, I was rude to you, I apologize.”
She shook her head, buried in his chest, “Brother Xiao, even if we don’t care about those thirty-plus acres of fields, your third brother surely does. Think about it, Su Qingyue has already agreed to marry him, and Su Qingyue’s more than a thousand taels of silver, that would be your third brother’s. Initially, it was the three of you from the Xiao Family who bought Su Qingyue back, and even Su Qingyue said that the fields under your name should be considered the silver you paid to buy her and the expenses for her redemption. After all, she has made a fortune, and it is only right for her redemption price to be high. Even if Su Qingyue said the fields should be yours, your third brother still wants to take them from you. Those were rightly your share. He has swallowed more than a thousand taels of silver without a word, and he originally had thirty-plus acres of fields under his name, but now he even wants to swallow your share, which truly disregards brotherly affection!”
Xiao Yishan listened and found it reasonable, “But those were originally Qingyue’s…”
“You can’t think of it that way,” Li Rong’er said, “Your fields were originally yours, it’s purely that Su Qingyue’s redemption price has increased. Think about it, a woman who can earn more than two thousand taels, placed upon anyone’s head, would lift her redemption price up, wouldn’t they? Being able to give her over a thousand taels of silver, you have already done more than enough. Now, she and your third brother go as far as to bite back at you, even wanting to take away what’s fundamentally yours. You took into account the emotions, but when have they ever considered your feelings?”
“But…” Xiao Yishan still wanted to say something.
From the time the Xiao Family started talking about dividing the family, Li Rong’er had been scheming how to persuade Xiao Yishan; she had rehearsed her convincing words countless times in her heart, and now she simply spoke them out loud, “Brother Xiao, I know you have a good conscience and pity Su Qingyue. But think about it, your third brother is liked by so many women in the village, who knows how many he has been with. After he marries Su Qingyue, who knows if he will take several more wives. By then, all of Su Qingyue’s money could end up in other women’s pockets.”
“The third brother is not that kind of person, he will treat Yue’er well…” Xiao Yishan believed he understood his third brother.
Li Rong’er lifted her head from his embrace, “Brother Xiao, you can judge a person’s face but not their heart. Could you have imagined that Yuchuan would defy you over and over again?”
His voice conveyed regret again, “Me bringing you back was a mistake in itself.”
Her eyes brimmed with more tears, “I know I have caused Brother Xiao trouble. To say something unpleasant, Brother Xiao, could you have imagined things developing to where we are today?” She showed a look of grievance, “Rong’er never intended to become your woman…”
Even if she had used enchantment – no one else would know anyway.

Xiao Yishan, feeling guilty for taking her purity during a fever, apologized, “Rong’er, I’m sorry…”
“Brother Xiao, I know you are kind-hearted. People’s hearts can change. Just think of this division of the family as taking the fields for now, and consider it protecting the assets for Su Qingyue if you will. That way, even if Xiao Yuchuan marries again later and forgets about Su Qingyue, you’ve covered for her. Right?” As she persuaded him with her mouth, she was thinking, as long as the family was divided and the fields remained under Xiao Yishan’s name, one day when she was pregnant.
Even a tiger does not eat its cubs; by then, the lands under his name would naturally be inherited by his offspring, and there was no way they would be returned to Su Qingyue.
Having grown to understand Xiao Yishan a bit, she knew he was easily swayed, and with a few more pleas from her, why would he not do as she said?
