Chapter 389: You've Noticed It Too
Village Head Chen was almost infuriated by their behavior. He pointed at them with an outstretched finger and said, "Just because of this incident, you all are scared out of your wits? Cowards." He then looked at Yuan Shanchuan and said, "You..." Yuan Shanchuan also looked at his parents with disbelief, unable to understand why they were still insisting on severing ties after everything had been explained. "Do you... really not want me as your son anymore?" The elderly Yuan couple turned their heads away, unable to look at him. Silence fell over the Yuan family courtyard, an eerie silence. Village Head Chen naturally didn't want things to escalate to this point. In his view, this was just a minor issue. How did it reach the point of complete estrangement? No one knew how long the silence lasted. Finally, the old Yuan patriarch spoke, "So be it. From now on, consider that you have no parents or brothers. Since you're married and have a wife and children, let each of us live our own lives." Yuan Laoda's eyes sparkled with excitement, while the second and third sons hesitated, seemingly wanting to persuade them but ultimately staying silent. Another long silence ensued. Just when everyone thought that there wouldn't be a conclusion today, Yuan Shanchuan lifted his head and painfully uttered a single word, "Okay." After saying that, he clearly saw his parents visibly relieved, as if... he was just a burden, someone who would bring them trouble. Yuan Shanchuan forced a bitter smile, and all the strength drained from his body in an instant. He toppled backward. "Shanchuan!" Lu Sixing exclaimed in shock. Chaos erupted within the Yuan family. When Yuan Shanchuan woke up again, he was met with the ruthless demands of the elderly Yuan couple. Yuan Laoda said, "Since we've severed ties, naturally we should take back everything we've given you. That includes the house you currently live in, which is the old ancestral home of the Yuan family. Although it was allocated to you when we split the family, now that we've severed ties, the circumstances have changed." Yuan Shanchuan sneered, "Is there anything else?" "And also, your parents have raised you for so many years. Therefore, you should provide them with their retirement money. Let's settle it all at once since we won't have any further contact. We calculated it, and it's not much. Twenty years of retirement money, one tael of silver per year. Give us twenty taels." Village Head Chen stood by with a stern face, but upon hearing this, he couldn't help but snort. "Twenty taels? Shanchuan just recently split from the family, where would he get the silver from?" Not to mention, it's not common for the elderly to live to be seventy or eighty years old. The elderly Yuan couple is already approaching fifty. Ten years of retirement money would be sufficient, but they want twenty years? And one tael of silver per year for retirement money is not a small amount. Shu Yu didn't participate in the division of family assets after the estrangement. Since they wouldn't come to blows, she didn't interfere much. Fourth Uncle wasn't a foolish person, and eldest Uncle was also present, so they could discuss it among themselves. What she found strange was Yuan Laoda's previous expression. Shu Yu slowly walked out of the Yuan family courtyard, pondering over Yuan Laoda's attitude to this matter. "Ah Yu." Da Niu, who knows when he followed her out, ran to her side and whispered, "Ah Yu, have you noticed that eldest Yuan is acting strangely?" Shu Yu turned her head. "You've noticed it too?"Become a patron to support and to Read the complete translation

The cost of raising him over years probably not even 50% of that. bfr
