Chen Lian snorted coldly. “Xia Ru was in danger because she asked for it. It’s not like there are no jobs in our county. It’s wrong of her to cheat the mother of her money.”

“This account is yours. Next month, your family’s salary must be handed over, but ours doesn’t.’

Song Yan was very unconvinced. “Why should we? Your Xia Ye still needs to spend money to go to school. Our Xia Ru has worked long but never spent our family’s money. Now, she’s just looking for an opportunity to work and only spent 200 yuan. She earns more than 200 yuan for our family. What about your Xia Ye? How much does she earn?

“And your family’s Xia Yu, she always eats the most in the family. If we calculate it this way, our family is the one who suffers the most.”

Chen Lian and Song Yan were scolding each other again, which annoyed Li Jin.

In the end, Xia Jiang said, “Since you’re not satisfied with our Xia Ru’s spending, and we’re not satisfied with your family’s tuition fees, let’s just split up. We’ll take care of things from here.”

Li Jin was originally annoyed but immediately perked up when she heard Xia Jiang’s words.

“No, how can we split up? We can’t split up. Our family has already split one.”

In order to prevent them from continuing to discuss the matter of splitting up, Li Jin took the initiative to persuade them, “Alright, it’s just two hundred yuan. I think what Song Yan said makes sense. Xia Ru has made a lot of money for the family before, so let’s forget about it this time.”

With Li Jin’s words, Song Yan could not say anything else. The two families went their separate ways.

When she returned to her room, Song Yan told Xia Jiang, “I think we should split up if we have the chance.”

“Why?” Xia Jiang was puzzled.

“Think about it,” Song Yan analyzed. “When Xia Hails family was around, all the money they earned belonged to us. Yan Han was also responsible for cooking for us. But now, Xia Hai’s family has split the money. Chen Lian and I have to take turns cooking for the whole family every time. It’s been tough.

“Besides, even though our family spends, we earn a lot too. Xia Ru has also started to earn money, but look at Chen Lian’s family. Xia Ye is still studying. Not only does she not earn money, she has to spend money. Xia Yu doesn’t even want to go to school but doesn’t want to earn money.

“If we continue living with them, our family will suffer.”

Xia Jiang was silent momentarily and asked, ‘Where’s your mother? Where’s your mother? Do you want someone to cook for you? She raised us painstakingly. If we all split up, Mother will definitely be sad.”

Song Yan said, “Ahh, what’s the big deal? When the time comes, just let your mother take turns to follow us. She’ll stay at our house for seven days and Chen Lian’s house for seven days. Then, we’ll give her a portion of living expenses every month. It’s just that we can’t give her half of our monthly salary like before.

“With the money in her hands, who knows who she will spend it on.”

Although Song Yan did not say it explicitly, Xia Jiang understood that Li Jin was actually more biased toward Xia Yu.

If they had a son, Li Jin would probably like him. However, they only had Xia

After thinking about it, Xia Jiang felt that Song Yan’s suggestion was not bad.

“Alright, I’ll tell Mother tomorrow.”

The next day, Xia Wan came to the shop early to take a look. She was prepared to renovate the shop. She already had a rough idea of how to renovate it.

She observed the shop while drawing designs.

Not long after, Xia Hai rushed over with a plate of fruits in his hand. He handed it to Xia Wan and said, “Dad just washed it. Have some.”

Xia Wan took it with a smile.

Xia Hai casually glanced at the design and praised, “Wanwan, did you design this yourself? Although I haven’t been to many shops, I think it looks very luxurious.”

Xia Wan nodded. She was thrilled that her father had approved of her design.

“But according to my calculations, if we renovate it like this, it will cost about 2000 yuan.” 2000 yuan was equivalent to many years of income in this era. It was not a small amount.

Xia Hai laughed and said, “You’re worried about money. Don’t worry. I’ve done all kinds of jobs when I was working part-time. I know where to buy the materials you need at the cheapest price.

“I know a factory manager. His factory produces all the materials you need.

Why don’t I bring you over to take a look?”

Xia Wan’s interest was piqued. “Alright, then, let’s go over now..”
