Chapter 9 Win or Lose, We Are In This Together

the inn.Ginger wasn't gossipy by nature, but when her gaze landed on the person across from her, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.Because she never expected the leading lady, Hua Xiao, to not s...Song Daniu's mocking laughter: "You have used my child for so many years, and now that he is worthless, you want him to die. How cruel..."

She laughed and laughed until tears streamed down her face, her appearance particularly pitiful. Jiang Wan swatted Shen Qian away and supported the unsteady Song Damo.

At this time, Song Jiuli also reacted and, along with Jiang Wan, supported Song's mother on either side.

The second mistress and everyone in her household were shocked speechless. Their mother had actually been a concubine

No wonder, no wonder when Dad died he still held onto his older brother, begging him for forgiveness and to treat their mother well.

And the noblewoman, Sanniang Xu, closed her eyes in pain. A woman of high status, she had actually married a son born out of wedlock. It served her right! Everything was her own doing!

Besides them, some other exiles also curiously looked over. The old Madame Song, whose secret was exposed, trembled and fainted with a roll of her eyelids.

"Mother!"

"Grandma!"

People with two or three rooms crowded around, none of them dared to hit Jiang Wan. Shen Qian's eyes glinted as if she had grasped something again.

"Ginger, look what you've done to your grandmother!"

This made the people from the second and third houses resent Ginger Wan again. Ginger Wan, however, remained unfazed and stepped forward. In the dimly lit cave, Ginger Wan noticed that the old woman's fingertips were trembling slightly.

"Hmm~"

She chuckled softly, “Since I’m the one who made things this way, I have to take responsibility.”

Everyone was confused by her words, but Jiang Wan had already walked up to the old mistress and pressed her fingertip onto her person's center, pinching it hard.

"Ah!"

Old Madam Song yelped in pain, and if one looked closely, they would see that the tip of ginger had pricked her center with a sharp nail, drawing blood.

"Ginger, are you trying to kill me"

Mrs. Song took the lead, but Ginger remained calm and collected. "Mistress, you've misunderstood. I did this to save you. If not for my actions just now, you would still be unconscious."

Old Madam: !!!

It's like hitting yourself in the foot with a stone, you'll eventually be driven mad by ginger.

"Mother, what do you plan to do about Yuan'er"

Lady Song's heart pounded with anxiety, her gaze fixed on Madam Song, obviously expecting an explanation.

What can I do.

Mrs. Song's heart ached with anger, and she wouldn't even save those descendants if she had the money!

"I want to borrow money."

Song Daniu gazed at the people present, her eyes sending a chill down their spines.

The people in the big house are really crazy!

"Grandma, let's not dwell on past grievances. Since the Song family remains united, my husband's matters are everyone's concern."

I sincerely hope that all the elders will not refuse. Otherwise, if I get really mad, I might even forget my own mother.

Ginger's face turned pale as she spoke the words that shocked everyone. In fact, when Miss Song came over first, she had quietly given Young Master Song some fever-reducing medicine.

Compared to Song's worries, she cared more about whether she could achieve her goal.

Upon hearing this, Song Er Niang's eyes suddenly turned to the old madam and said:

"Mother, now that Father is gone and eldest brother has been missing for a year, our family has fallen apart. It would be better to split the household, don't you think"

Song Ernizi kept winking at the old madam. She was the old madam's niece, and the two had always been best friends.

Hearing her words, Old Mrs. Song's heart moved. She had previously been unwilling to split the family because her grandchildren needed to rely on the bastard's grandchildren.

Instead, the result of this conviction has led to her grandchildren having silver. Even if they reach desolate lands, they will inevitably live better than Song Jiubian and his companions.

So why don't they just split up cleanly

Elder Mrs. Song was about to speak, but the eldest daughter-in-law stubbornly said, "I disagree with the division of property, you must save my Yu'er!"

Since Ginger had fed medicine to Song Jiubian before, she wasn't too worried, but Madam Song, driven by maternal love, was unaware of this. Now, the one she felt most sorry for was still Song Jiubian.

Song Jiuli also cried and said, "Grandmother, Li'er doesn't want to separate the family. Li'er's most beloved grandmother is only you."

She had been close to the old lady since she was young, truly treating her as a grandmother. This made Jiang Wan's brow furrow slightly.

It seems that even if they split up in the future, she still has to guard against Song Jiu Li. She doesn't seem very bright and can't distinguish between close and distant relationships.

Song Daniu also felt a pain in her chest at Song Jiuli's words. If her true mother-in-law knew about this, she would probably blame her for failing to raise her son properly.

Song Jiuchi stubbornly raised his head, "I don't agree to the split either, I want to save my elder brother!"

The little boy's eyes were misty with tears. Too many things had happened in one day. The family members who once cared for him now seemed hateful, and he couldn't accept it.

They couldn't accept that they abandoned their big brother when he was in need. He was the one who brought them wealth and glory!

"No!"

Old Mrs. Song looked at her two sons and said in a firm tone, “This family won’t be divided without being divided!”

Her children must never be held back by Song Jiubian and his associates again!

"Poo... poo... I'm gonna poop!"

Sanyazi Xu, with a missing front tooth, was the first to agree. She no longer wanted anything to do with Jiang Wan and the others, she was furious!

Since the mistress spoke so, Song Ren naturally agreed. Song Lao Er had no objections either, so there was no need to consult the elder wife at all. Thus, the family was forcibly divided by the old madam.

At the end, the old madam said very pompously, “Now we don’t have much property dispute, just live our own lives. I’ll follow the second son and don’t need you to support me.”

As for your son, Yuan'er, whether he lives or dies is his fate. I'm just an old woman, powerless to do anything about it.”

This made Madam Song's whole body feel cold, and she suddenly felt that all the respect she had given before was thrown to the dogs. She trembled as she spoke.

"You... you're so cruel, all of you are so cruel."

“Mother…”

Suddenly, a faint voice came. Everyone followed the sound and saw that it was Song Jiubian, who had been in a coma.

He woke up, his voice still a little raspy. Jiang Wan ran over in quick strides.

"Husband."

She seemed quite anxious, even going so far as to feel his forehead for a fever. Song Jiubian couldn't help but find himself increasingly unable to read the woman before him.

But at this time, both Song Daniu and Song Jiuchili rushed over, "Yuan'er."

Song Daniu held onto Song Jiubian's hand, tears of distress streaming down her face like beads broken from a string.

Song Jiuchi, this half-grown boy, also shed tears, while Song Jiuli, this clueless one, was still by the old lady's side.

"Grandmother, Lili doesn't want to separate from the family. Lili still wants to be with Grandmother."

This girl was crying with pear blossoms raining down, completely forgetting her older brother who had just woken up at home. She was really heartless.

"Song Jiuli!"

Song Daniu gritted her teeth and let out a shout, only then did Song Jiuli react, stammering as she took slow steps towards her.

Song Jiubian glanced at Song Jiri with a veiled look in his eyes, took a deep breath, and then expressed his opinion.

"I... agree to the split!"help out outside. I'll call you if I need anything.""Okay."Pan Hongyan was very obedient. Hearing this, he turned and left the room, also thoughtfully closing the door for them.Ginger glanced at the n...
