“The fields in Third’s possession naturally belonged to him while he was still alive. However, now that he’s gone, our Yan family can’t allow those fields to fall into the hands of outsiders. The Yan family’s assets belong to the Yan family.”

“…”

“You’re a good-for-nothing. You’ll have to get married in the future. If you go to someone else’s house, you won’t even be able to keep her.”

“…”

“We don’t care about the people. We can’t take the things away. Third had a total of 15 acres of fields. Bring the land deed over. I’ll be the arbiter and distribute it.”

“…”

“When the fields are distributed, we won’t leave you alone. Until you get married, our old house will take care of your food and drinks,” Old Man Yan declared forcefully.

The members of the Yan family and the allied families nodded in agreement, expressing satisfaction with this arrangement.

Gu Chaoyan sneered.

How could they not be satisfied?

Such an arrangement was nothing short of exploitation.

The three sisters were to provide for themselves until they got married.

Even Dandong and Danxia, not so young anymore, would likely marry within a few years. They could work until marriage, and afterward, the people in their old house could still accept betrothal gifts. Who wouldn’t want such a favorable deal?

“I don’t agree,” Gu Chaoyan firmly rejected the proposal.

“You wretched girl, do you think you have the right to agree or disagree?” Old Madam Yan shouted disdainfully, her face twisted with contempt.

“We’ve already divided our ways long ago. The farmland now belongs to us, so there’s no need to reclaim it. As for us three sisters, our mother is here, so you don’t have to worry about us,” Gu Chaoyan asserted straightforwardly.

“Your mother? She’s an outsider too,” Old Lady Yan retorted.

“You have no authority over outsiders. I won’t hand over the farmland. If you want to take it forcefully, involve the authorities,” Gu Chaoyan asserted firmly, maintaining a serious expression.

“Shut up!” Old Man Yan, who had been silent for a while, slammed the table angrily. “Government interference won’t be tolerated in our family matters. In the Yan family, I have the final say. If you don’t comply, we’ll wash our hands of the third branch’s affairs. No matter what challenges you face, we won’t come to your aid.”

“Then it’s settled,” Gu Chaoyan responded with satisfaction.

Old Man Yan’s face stiffened, clearly caught off guard by her unyielding response.

Old Man Yan had issued the threat assuming they would succumb. In his view, the third branch, consisting entirely of girls, would be vulnerable in the village, especially unmarried ones. He anticipated fear, but instead, he encountered defiant youths.

“Hmph!” Old Man Yan snorted angrily. “If you’re so unyielding, then I’ll invite Li Zheng to be the witness. From now on, our old house won’t involve itself in the matters of your third branch.”

“…”

“With Li Zheng as our witness, no one will question us,” Old Man Yan continued to threaten.

Gu Chaoyan couldn’t be more delighted. She had anticipated the Yan family to be challenging to deal with, but since she was here, she saw an opportunity to assert herself.

“Danxia, go fetch Li Zheng. We can get this certification done today,” Gu Chaoyan instructed Yan Danxia, who was eavesdropping at the door.

Yan Danxia made a face, surprised that her sister had noticed her.

She hurried off to bring Li Zheng to the scene.
