CHAPTER 877: CHAPTER 853: TAKING THE MONEY

The four brothers entered, seeing the spacious living room, they all felt a bit envious and jealous.

Looks like they underestimated this younger sister in front of them.

Yesterday, they were only focusing on the secret recipe issue.

They completely forgot to catch up with this sister.

They didn’t even know her background.

But seeing the neatly arranged cash on the table immediately caught their eyes.

That’s money!

Jiang Xiaoxiao saw them, "Brothers, have a seat. Since you have arrived, this is the lawyer I invited. The contract is ready, you just need to sign and seal it. Right here is one million, and it’s already divided according to everyone’s share.

Each family gets 200,000 once you sign and seal it, then you can take away your portion."

Jiang Xiaoxiao knew they were here for the money.

She wanted to settle this once and for all.

To avoid trouble.

Uncle Hao was a bit unhappy when he heard the 200,000.

"Sister, your division isn’t right. There are only four of us brothers, so it should be 250,000 each."

Jiang Xiaoxiao glanced slyly at Uncle Hao, "Big Brother! Zhigang may be young, but since his parents have passed away, his share should naturally come to him."

Is this an open robbery?

Hao Zhigang puffed up his chest, "Second Uncle, what do you mean by four brothers? It should be five brothers, and if you include my aunt, it should be at least divided into six parts. Why shouldn’t my aunt have a share?

We must know that the money was made from selling the Hao family secret recipe, and everyone is entitled to a share."

He really couldn’t stand the older generation’s greed for money, wishing they could swallow it all by themselves.

Uncle Hao glared, "A married daughter is like spilled water. Even if you find your aunt, she’s just a woman. Besides, she married out long ago, what does she have to do with the Hao family?

She hasn’t eaten the Hao family’s food nor contributed to the Hao family. Why should she get a share of the money from the secret recipe? And you, with your parents gone, you’re used to spending freely, I can’t let you have your share.

If we give it to you, it surely won’t be saved. Second Uncle will keep it for you until you’re ready to start a family and career, then you can come ask Second Uncle for it."

Hao Zhigang was both angry and amused, how shameless.

"Second Uncle, whether or not I can save that money has nothing to do with you. Even if I never marry, I’ll save it to take care of Great-Grandmother, and it has nothing to do with you. I don’t need you to keep it for me.

So I don’t end up asking you for money, only to be told it all went to my brothers. Taking care of Great-Grandmother is expected, but taking care of my brothers isn’t my responsibility, that’s up to the two of you elders.

Not a penny should be missing from my share, even without my aunt’s share. And Great-Grandmother’s share too, so it should be divided into six parts. Are you really planning to sell the recipe and not care about Great-Grandmother?"

Hao Zhigang originally didn’t want to bicker with Uncle Hao and the others, but seeing their attitude, he couldn’t hold back his temper.

He had to fight for it.

Uncle Hao and the others really hadn’t planned for Great-Grandmother. All these years, it had been Hao Zhigang taking care of her. In their minds, they hadn’t considered Great-Grandmother part of the equation.

So they hadn’t counted her share.

Being called out by Hao Zhigang, they couldn’t help but feel a bit embarrassed.

"Zhigang, what you’re saying isn’t reasonable. You still have a shop in my name. That shop can be for your Great-Grandmother’s retirement. Even if it’s rented out, it brings in some rent.

So these funds don’t include Great-Grandmother’s share, even if it includes your share, it’s still divided into five parts, each with 200,000."

Uncle Hao made a quick decision; that shop rents for at most two hundred a month, it’s in a bad location and the storefront is small.

Not worth much.

Uncle Hao couldn’t let the money slip away.

"Uncle, since you value that shop so much, then you can keep the shop, and you won’t need to take your share."

Hao Zhigang retorted.

Originally, Great-Grandmother didn’t want a share of this money. For her, selling the secret recipe wasn’t her intention.

But now he had to fight for her, this is downright unfilial, dismissing her with a small shop.

Doesn’t he feel ashamed saying that at his age of over fifty?

Rarely feeling shame, Uncle Hao knew he was out of line when he said it.

As expected, he was caught by this brat.

Angrily said, "Fine, fine, then split a share for your Great-Grandmother, and sell the shop, splitting it together."

Uncle Hao thought that if they gave a share to Great-Grandmother, it wasn’t just his money, everyone’s share would be less. But if he disagreed, this brat could trade the shop for his share, why should he?

The shop wasn’t worth much anyway.

If there’s a loss, everyone should share the loss together!

His statement made, the other brothers wanted to argue more.

But seeing Hao Zhigang’s determined face, they knew they couldn’t reasonably deny Great-Grandmother a share.

After all, she was their grandmother.

Even with their parents gone, following duty and inheritance rights, this property also belonged to Great-Grandmother.

Policy-wise, a large portion should belong to Great-Grandmother. Her willingly allowing them to split it was a huge favor.

If they continued to fuss, Hao Zhigang might just bring out the inheritance laws.

At that point, it would truly be a loss.

Helplessly, they agreed, and under the lawyer’s witness, the property was distributed, and everyone signed and sealed it. The secret recipe was sold to Jiang Xiaoxiao.

Leaving with their shares of the money.

Uncle Hao and the others were somewhat smug.

They secretly felt pleased, mainly because the secret recipe was sold to their own sister.

After all, she was their sister, a member of the Hao family, which meant the meat fell into their pot.

Now that they have the money, who knows, they might get the secret recipe back from their sister and sell it again someday.

Each of them left cheerfully.

Uncle Hao glanced back at the small villa as he was leaving, feeling hesitant. It seemed his sister, despite not returning for many years, was doing quite well outside.

What if his sister had some wealth?

But no matter how he thought about it, this was already settled.

Seeing the relationship with his sister might not recover, Uncle Hao shook his head, perceiving it best to accept what’s on hand.

They took the money and went straight back home by car.

Meanwhile, the old lady watched her ungrateful grandchildren leave with the money, without a backward glance.

Feeling a bit sad, this was the Hao family, the descendants of the Hao family.

If her husband saw the Hao family divided and falling apart, reaching this state, he would probably be heartbroken.
