Chapter 51: Separation, Liu Xihua's family moves to a new home
Jiang Meihua and Jiang Meilan widened their eyes in disbelief, "Sister, you're moving into brother and sister-in-law's house without telling anyone, this... isn't a good idea, is it?"

Jiang Meizhi ignored them and continued moving things.

Aunt Jiang was angry with Liu Xihua and Jiang Daguo. She rolled her eyes and said unhappily, "This house belongs to me and your father. Why do we need their consent? My word is final!"

After saying that, she turned around to find an axe, and chopped down the lock on Liu Xihua and Jiang Daguo's bedroom door with great force.

With a loud bang, the lock was instantly split in two.

Jiang Meizhi walked into the room with her luggage bag in hand.

Jiang Meihua and Jiang Meilan looked at each other, pursed their lips, and dared not say a word.

After all, in this family, the two sisters have the lowest status.

"Why are you two still standing there like idiots? Why don't you come over and help? Your eldest sister has been busy all day and is exhausted. She must have a good rest." Aunt Jiang turned around and scolded her second and third daughters.

Jiang Meihua had no choice but to gently pull Jiang Meilan's arm, and the two of them walked forward together to help carry the luggage.

At this time, Uncle Jiang came back from outside.

He looked at the piles of items in the room, said nothing, and walked silently to the chair and sat down.

On his way back from the fields, he heard from the village team that his eldest daughter was getting divorced.

This daughter has had many ideas since she was young. She doesn't listen to other people's advice and likes to make her own decisions.

When other families get divorced, they always cry and feel sad, but she is completely the opposite. She happily calls other people to help her move things.

Seeing his eldest daughter move into his son and daughter-in-law's room, Grandpa Jiang could no longer hold back and asked Aunt Jiang, "Daguo's mother, Meizhi moved into Daguo's room. So where will Daguo and Xihua live after they come back?"

Aunt Jiang glanced at Uncle Jiang and snorted, "Will they come back? Humph! You know they have already moved into the Liu family."

Uncle Jiang shook his head helplessly and explained, "It's because Xihua has a baby that her parents let her stay there for a few days. She will come back naturally in a few days."

"Why did you come back? It would be better if you didn't come back!" Aunt Jiang snorted, "I lost every pregnancy I had. Who knows if this one will be born?"

Aunt Jiang made up her mind. Since her son listened to his daughter-in-law in everything and still hadn't given birth to a baby, he might as well not come back.

Anyway, she has a grandson, which is better than the girl picked up by her son and daughter-in-law.

Uncle Jiang couldn't win the argument with her and could only sigh, there was nothing he could do.

Jiang Meizhi piled her luggage in the corner of Jiang Daguo's room, asked Jiang Meilan to get her some water to wash her face, and then went to bed.

Jiang Meihua was called by Aunt Jiang to cook.

Jiang Meilan opened her book and prepared to do her homework.

She glanced into the main room and said loudly, "Mom, I forgot my Chinese homework. I'll go to my classmate's house to ask."

"You forget this and that all the time. What's the point of reading? Go away, do your own things and don't bother me." Aunt Jiang yelled angrily while holding Jiang Meizhi's child.

Jiang Meilan closed the book and ran away quickly.

But she did not go to her classmate's house, but came to Liu's house.

"Sister-in-law, brother?" Jiang Meilan shouted breathlessly as she ran to the Liu family's yard.

When Liu's mother saw her coming, she said with a sullen face, "Did your mother ask you to come? What did she say?"

"No, no, I came here by myself. I want to talk to my sister-in-law about something." Jiang Meilan smiled and waved her hand. "Your sister-in-law is in the room over there." Liu's mother didn't like the Jiang family, pointed in a direction, and went back to the kitchen to get busy.

Jiang Meilan ran to the other room and knocked on the door, "Sister-in-law, sister-in-law?"

Liu Xihua was resting in bed. When she heard Jiang Meilan's call, she got out of bed and put on her shoes. "Come here, I'll open the door."

She was anxious, but still walked slowly and opened the door.

Jiang Meilan looked back, took Liu Xihua's arm and said, "Sister-in-law, my elder sister got divorced and moved back home. She lives in your and elder brother's house. Mom agreed to it."

Liu Xihua frowned, she had expected this day to come.

[Mom, my aunt has taken our bedroom. We won’t go back to the Jiang family. Let’s live another life.]

[My aunt is a troublemaker. If I don’t live separately from her, she will harm Xiaoxiao and my brother, as well as my parents.]

When Jiang Xiaoxiao heard what Jiang Meilan said, she clenched her fists angrily.

Liu Xihua stroked her belly. She could give in on anything, but she would never give in on the matter of the child.

She was determined not to let Jiang Meizhi harm her child.

She originally didn't want to split up the family, but for the sake of her children, she agreed not to go back.

"I understand, Meilan, you can go back." Liu Xihua just smiled indifferently and was not angry.

Jiang Meilan looked at her in surprise, "Sister-in-law, you're not angry?"

"Why should I be angry? That house belongs to my parents, and she wants to let Meizhi live in it. What can I say?" Liu Xihua said lightly.

Jiang Meilan sighed, "Okay, I'll go back first."
-
After Jiang Meilan went back, Jiang Daguo returned to the Liu family.

Liu Xihua told Jiang Daguo about Jiang Meizhi's return home.

Jiang Daguo frowned, held Liu Xihua's hand and said, "I will take care of the house issue."

"How are you going to solve it? Let my sister live on the road?" Liu Changping also heard about the Jiang family's affairs, and walked over and said angrily.

"Of course not, don't worry, big brother, I won't treat Xihua badly." Jiang Daguo said, "I will go to find the team leader of our team and ask him if he can let Xihua and I live in the team house."

"What? You want my sister to live with you in the team house? It's embarrassing for you to bring my sister with you?" Liu Changping was angry and waved his hands, refusing to agree no matter what.

Liu Xihua said, "Brother, our team's house is better than the one in this team. The house over there is tall, bright and clean."

Each team had a team house, which was where the public grain was stored when the group was on a collective journey.

Nowadays, there is no need to collect and pay the public grain collectively, and the team house has become idle and has become a place for each family in the team to store large farm tools.

Liu Xihua insisted on living in the team house with Jiang Daguo, and Liu Changping and the Liu family had no choice but to agree.

But the Liu family was afraid that Aunt Jiang would cause trouble for Liu Xihua in the future, so Liu's mother said, "In my opinion, you should split up the family. Aunt Jiang actually drove her son and his wife out for her daughter. It's better to live separately. You can live your life, and your mother and your father can live theirs with your sisters. Everyone can live in peace."

Jiang Daguo nodded and said, "Mom, I think so too. I will tell my parents when I get home and we will separate."

The Liu family was somewhat surprised and relieved to see his firm tone.

"Okay, since you think so, we won't say anything. We will go back with you and divide this house." Liu Changping patted Jiang Daguo on the shoulder and said.
