Chapter 41: No Longer Related
“One of these is for your parents. You can keep one copy for yourselves. The other is for me to hand it over to the county office and be stored in the archive. This means that if anything happens in the future, it won’t be settled according to emotions. When that time comes, things will be black or white. It’s still not too late to regret now. After you put your fingerprints on it, you won’t be able to change it anymore.”

As Old Master Li wrote, he explained the effect of the letter thoroughly. He was afraid that the two sides would not understand what it meant. He made things clear and made sure both sides considered it carefully before making a decision.

Otherwise, once the papers are submitted, they wouldn’t be able to reverse the effects easily.

During this time, no one spoke. They all seemed to tacitly approve of this handling.

After the proof was written, Old Master Su and Madam Wang immediately pressed their fingerprint on it and even got Su Dalang and Su Erlang to do the same.

By the time they finished, it was Su Sanlang’s turn.

Su Sanlang did not hesitate. He pressed the red clay and put his fingerprint on the papers. He said calmly to Madam Zhao, “Darling, come and press yours on it too. Get Sanmei, Chong and Hua to come here too. Bring Simei over as well.”

Su Sanlang’s decisiveness made Grand Duke Su and Fourth Duke Su shake their heads and sigh.

The village chief, Old Master Wang, also sighed. Su Sanlang was too stubborn. He really did not want to admit his mistakes at all. Even if his parents were in the wrong, they were still his parents. What was wrong with enduring it?

How could a son be so stubborn with his parents?

Su Sanlang simply did not understand this way of thinking. Since things had already come to this, there was nothing anyone could do.

After pressing her thumbprint, Madam Wang said to Su Sanlang and his family in a vicious tone, “All of you, get lost. I’d rather give this house to a dog than to you.”

Maybe it was because she had finally vented her anger, Madam Wang felt that the inflammation in their mouths had mostly subsided.

Looking at Su Sanlang and his family, who were even more depressed than drowning dogs, Madam Wang felt relief in her heart. It was useless to have such a disobedient son. It was good to get rid of him as soon as possible.

Seeing that Su Sanlang was about to leave with his wife and children, Madam Wang rolled her eyes and shouted, “Stop right there.”

Su Sanlang and Madam Zhao’s heavy footsteps stopped.

Su Sanlang knew he shouldn’t have any more expectations, but he wasn’t willing to give up hope.

Unfortunately, just as this thought arose, it was quickly extinguished by Madam Wang’s next words.

Madam Wang said coldly, “Eldest daughter-in-law, second daughter-in-law, go and search them to see if they took anything that belongs to our Su family. They spent our Su family’s money on their clothes.”

Hearing these heartless words, Su Sanlang trembled and coughed lightly. Madam Zhao exclaimed, “Sanlang…”

Su Sanlang was so hurt that he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Madam Zhao was terrified. Tears streamed down her face as she supported Su Sanlang, not knowing what to do.

“It stands to reason that the clothes they’re wearing can be brought along with them, but not the silverware.”
