Chapter 127: Deciding to Divide the Family

Mrs. Wang, on the other hand, was somewhat conflicted. She knew her own man well enough; Han Lin was a good-for-nothing, idle and lazy. Without a division of the household, they could still mooch off the home, but if they separated, what would they live on? Yet, there were benefits to dividing the property. Right now, she endured the disdain of her father-in-law and mother-in-law, and no one in the Han family was fond of her. If they split, she could have some freedom, no longer having to face others' moods every day, which was suffocatingly oppressive.

"Big sister-in-law is right," she asserted. "If father has proposed the division, he must have his reasons. Big brother, you should stop obstructing it. I know you're the eldest among us and remaining undivided is to your advantage, but you also have to consider us younger brothers. You can't just think of your benefits and block our futures, right?"
