Chapter 260: Splitting the Money

They were both their sons. Why should they leave them to him?
Seeing Lin Dachui and Old Madam Lin’s expressions, Lin Yuanshan suddenly panicked.
The matter of splitting up was probably inevitable.
Looking at his parents’ expressions, it was obvious that they wanted to stay with him.
Of course he didn’t dare to refuse.
His reputation was too important for him as a scholar. If he really didn’t want his parents, even if he got in, he wouldn’t be able to go far.
He might as well take advantage of his parents’ favor and fight for more things for himself when they split up.
Thinking of this, Lin Yuanshan pretended to be disappointed and looked at his brothers.
Then, he sighed.
“Alright, since this is what you want, I can’t stop you.”
“Let’s split up then!”
When they heard this, they instantly heaved a sigh of relief.
Regardless of what he said, as long as the families could be separated, it would be fine!
The two elders of the Lin family looked at Lin Yuanshan worriedly but did not say anything.
Lin Dachui and Old Madam Lin were actually smart. They knew that if they split up, they would have less money. In the future, it would be difficult to provide for Lin Yuanshan’s studies.
However, they were also afraid of the others.
They were afraid that if they continued to cause trouble, they would have a falling out.
When that happened, all their sons would probably not care about them in the future.
Although they thought Lin Yuanshan would definitely be successful, it would not be so fast.
“Then I’ll go and invite the village chief over!” Fourth Uncle Lin suddenly said. There was actually joy on his face.
“Wait!” Lin Yuanshan stopped him.
Their expressions froze. They all looked at Lin Yuanshan, afraid that he would go back on his word.
Lin Yuanshan looked helpless.
“There’s no hurry to invite the village chief. Let’s discuss the details first. This way, we won’t let outsiders see us as a joke.” Lin Yuanshan said.
They exchanged glances and agreed.
Lin Yuanshan then helped Lin Dachui and Old Madam Lin to sit on the bench.
“How should we divide the money?” Lin Yuanshan asked his parents.
As he spoke, he gave Old Madam Lin a look.
As expected, she immediately spoke.
“Your father and I are still alive. If you insist on splitting up, we’ll split the house and land! We’ll take the rest!”
Lin Yuanshan’s eyes moved slightly, and he gave her a look of approval.
The others were not convinced.
“No way! Then wouldn’t all the money in the family be given to Yuanshan?” Second Uncle Lin said.
“That’s right! We earned most of the money while Yuanshan was studying all these years. Since we are splitting up, we have to split everything!” First Uncle Lin said.
“Yes! All these years, for Yuanshan, you and father didn’t even let me marry. Now that we’re splitting up, you should give me what I’m owed,” Fourth Uncle Lin said.
When Old Madam Lin heard her three sons’ words, she stomped her walking stick in anger.
“Your father and I are not dead yet, and you want to split all the money! Are you trying to starve us to death?”
When Jiang Shi saw that she was bullying her husband again, she exploded..
