The two wives of the Pu brothers caused a scene, rolling on the ground and threatening suicide, insisting that the house be divided. They even threatened that if it wasn't partitioned, the elderly couple would have no peace living there. Mother Pu, furious, tried to throw both daughters-in-law out, but the grandchildren clung to their mothers, crying and glaring at Mother Pu with resentment.
Pu’s eldest son, in a fit of rage, slapped his own children and then his wife, threatening to divorce her. Only then did his wife dare to stop the commotion. However, Father Pu seemed to age ten years in an instant. Weakly, he said, "Let's divide it. Your mother and I will move to the side rooms; you take this space."
"Old man!" Mother Pu tried to intervene, but Father Pu waved her off. "Forget it, let it be. We would have to divide it sooner or later. Give it all to them; we’ll move to the side rooms."
