The Old Village Chief's expression grew even more solemn when he heard this. "Old Lady Su! If you dare spout any more nonsense, your whole family can get out of Xiaohe Village. Don't drag the rest of Xiaohe Village into being investigated and criticized by the government."
"And hand the money over to Chunfang and her daughter at once. The land must be transferred to them immediately as well."
Su Qiao's eyes shifted as she said with a solemn, utterly serious expression, "Village Chief, their ideas are far too dangerous. I don't want to join them in their wrongdoing, so I'd like to draw up a contract severing ties with them. I hope everyone can bear witness for me."
Although the Old Village Chief was somewhat surprised, he didn't think much of it.
After all, the Su family had handled this matter terribly. They had been the ones to hurt Su Qiao and her mother first.
So after hesitating for only a moment, he nodded. "Fine. It's better if you don't have anything to do with each other from now on. That way, they won't cause trouble for everyone."

Through Su Qiao's efforts, she and her mother had finally severed all ties with the Su family.
After everyone left, Old Lady Liu counted the colorful bills on the table again and again. "Qiao'er, this... is this really true? Grandma still can't quite believe it."
Su Qiao sat beside the wooden table and slowly drank her chrysanthemum tea to cool her temper.
"Of course. Keep this money safe, and find a hidden place for the land deed too. From today onward, the three of us will have to depend on one another."
"That's right, that's right. We have to keep it safe. This is the money for your college education."
