Chapter 553

And by relying on her son to be able to support her now that he was grown up, she directly challenged her authority.

“She is trying to beat me to death with a bowl, but you are still protecting her. Old Three, you are the Director of the Public Security Bureau, so why don’t you just arrest her and put her in a labour camp and shoot her?” Old Lady Han was furious and resentful.

Han Qingsong, “Mother, calm down and don’t say harsh words.”

Old Lady Han banged her crutches loudly and said bitterly, “You want to separate the families? Fine then, separate it.”

Haotian let out a sigh of relief.

The old lady stared at Haotian viciously. They could split up if they wanted to, but they weren’t going to live a good life without her.

She gritted her teeth and said, “We have to keep a son by our side since it’s impossible for us to live on our own. Old Four is not at home, and since Old Two is unable to help provide for us, they should move out. We will stay with the First Family.”

Lin Lan was speechless listening to the old lady’s words in the main room. Everytime she thought that this old lady was really selfish, the woman in question always managed to take it to the next level.

In order to make everyone unhappy, even if she was going to cause trouble every day, the two who absolutely hate each other insisted on staying together.

Second Brother Han was anxious, “Mother, why are you dividing our family?”

The old lady said angrily, “It’s fine for your Eldest Brother to take care of the elderly, so you don’t need to support us. Instead, you should go out to earn food by yourself.”

She stared at Haotian gloomyly in a blink of an eye, “You heard me. It is okay to divide the family, but we will live with our eldest son. So, either your mother divorces him and leaves or she stays and tends to us elderly.”

Haotian froze suddenly. Looking in disbelief at the old lady who was covered in smoke, it felt like he never truly recognised her.

Generally speaking, rural people had certain rules when it came to dividing the family. If the parents died before the separation, then the uncle and the cadres would be asked to preside over the family or the brothers would divide responsibility equally.

If the parents were still alive, they would basically be with the youngest son if they had one. When the older sons get married one by one, they could break off from the main family. However, the youngest son would stay by their sides even after marrying.

Then again, there were also some elderly who would wait until all their sons got married before separating the family together. This ensured that the elderly couple could select which daughter-in-law was the better one to take care of them.

Generally, the youngest son would be spoiled and the youngest daughter-in-law would be more aggressive. Since the eldest daughter-in-law had suffered for so long, she would normally be the one who was easier to talk to and control. Hence, some of the elderly would go with the eldest daughter-in-law even if it went against tradition.

It was clear that Old Lady Han was trying to do the same and rely on the First Family.

Weren’t you the ones who wanted to separate the house?

Fine.

But I want to follow the First Family.

Haotian was a straightforward person and his brain didn’t process things all that quickly, so he didn’t know what he could do for a bit.

He turned his head to look at Han Qingsong, his father and Lin Lan in the main room. He didn’t know who was able to help him.

He was at a loss because he didn’t know how to fight back against the old lady.

His mother didn’t want a divorce, but if she didn’t get one, she would be forced by the old lady anyways and the whole idea of separating the families would be useless.

Haotian’s expression twisted in pain as he turned and ran out, but bumped into someone at the gate of the courtyard.

It was Dawang who came to look for Lin Lan.
