Elder Daddy Xu was aware of the situation, but he declined to explain it. Instead, he just turns away and let them scold Liu Tong. And there, without saying anything, Liu Tong was focusing on picking up food for the two brothers.
Xu Ran was enraged. Despite his lack of affection for Liu Tong, the decent guy was bullied right in front of his eyes.
Xu Ran rushed from the table to the kitchen. He ran out, picking up the dead rabbit and throwing it straight onto the dinner table, knocking over an entire table of food. And the people at the table were splattered with broth right away.
The crowd was transfixed, and as they turned around, they yelled, "You son of a bitch! You don't want to live, do you? Today, I'm going to kill you."
Elder Dad Xu picked up the hoe and was about to attack Xu Ran while swearing.
Liu Tong pulled the two kids backwards, then dashed to Xu Ran's side to defend him with his own body. The hoe, on the other hand, dropped too easily. It had reached Liu Tong before Xu Ran could react.
After that, Elder Dad Xu had no hope of withdrawing and decided to attack once more. Xu Ran didn't want to be shunned any more. In any case, he was always seen as a fool by the public. He immediately grabbed a stool near the table to block his father's hoe and pushed Liu Tong aside.
Liu Tong also reacted, sprinting to the back and catching the hoe from Elder Dad Xu. Elder Dad Xu tried to slap Liu Tong but didn't have a hoe in his possession. Xu Ran charged up to Liu Tong's help, blocking the slap.
Xu Ran's mouth was immediately soaked with blood due to the force of the slap.
The entire family was terrified as Xu Ran spit a mouthful of blood onto the floor.
Elder Dad Xu also lowered his lifted fist, but he continued to stare Xu Ran and Liu Tong down. Elder Daddy Xu continued to curse beside them, while Zhang Yue and Xu Cheng mocked them.
"Ran," Liu Tong said as he drew Xu Ran into his arms. "What's going on? Where do you feel pain in your mouth? Open your mouth and show me."
He was softly coaxed by Liu Tong, who washed the blood from his mouth. Xu Ran was in severe pain and couldn't even speak. He didn't stop whining.
No one in the house was willing to go get him a doctor.
The hoe strike on Liu Tong's back was also extremely strong.
Xu Ran considered himself fortunate that his father had not yet dared to kill anyone, for the hoe he had just lost would have cost Liu Tong his life. Of course, Xu Ran isn't going to let this go too quickly today.
He had intended to wait until Liu Tong had finished preparing everything before discussing the family's separation. Over all, it took a lot of bravery to leave home empty-handed, because his family needed to survive.
However, the plan was unable to keep up with the improvements. Only for a rabbit, this family will beat people to death. His daddy was clearly aware of what was going on, but he offered little assistance in explaining what was going on. How could they possibly be his family?!
And if the previous Xu Ran knew, Xu Ran thought he would do the same, because no one could live such a life.
"Tongtong, ask the two children to go to the village head," Xu Ran said in a low voice, resting in Liu Tong's arms.
Liu Tong was taken aback when he realized Xu Ran's words, but he stayed silent. He didn't know when Ran regained consciousness, but he was relieved. Tangtang and Guoguo were waived at by Liu Tong. The two children were terrified as well, but they managed not to cry.
"Tangtang, Guoguo, you go to the village head's house to get him over here," Liu Tong said to the two kids as he supported Xu Ran. "Do you understand?"
The two kids used to go to the village chief's place, so they were familiar with the path. Tangtang and Guoguo obediently nodded. Liu Tong gently stroked the two children's heads, showing a soft smile.
When they left, both children were crying, but they tried not to make a sound.
The Xu family was unconcerned about the two children. They believed they went out only because they were afraid of being injured by accident. They despised Liu Tong and Xu Ran for being so worthless and stupid, but the two children, who shared the surname Xu, could work when they grew up as long as they were fed.
"Dad, let's split up the family!" This way of living is no longer sustainable. Big brother's family really knows how to eat rather than live. They even ask for money on a monthly basis. Our family does not have a lot of money. If things keep on like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to eat."
Xu Cheng, who had been quiet up until that moment, abruptly came up with the idea of splitting the family, and Zhang Yue, who stood next to him, agreed.
The elderly Xu couple looked at Xu Ran, Liu Tong, and then their youngest son's kin. It was obvious who they favored in their hearts.
Xu Ran intended to cause havoc. He leaned against Liu Tong and continued to moan, claiming that he was in pain. In reality, the injury was beyond his expectations, but he had to make the best of it or otherwise he would be suffering in vain.
As Liu Tong understood that Xu Ran's wound was unbearable, he attempted to console him while sneering at the pair of elderly Xu.
The old couple was startled by Liu Tong's stare, but how could they be scared of this young man when this was their family and they were the elders?
As a result, Elder Daddy Xu began swearing again, while Elder Dad Xu desired to pick up a tool with which to hit people. And instead of standing by and watching the scene, Xu Cheng and his wife told their sons to act.
Xu Hui and Xu Qiang rushed up to Xu Ran after hearing their father's words. They both grabbed Xu Ran's leg and started biting.
Xu Ran pinched Liu Tong when he tried to push these two kids away. Liu Tong then came to a halt, his heart wrenching for him.
Xu Ran was so badly bitten that he cried aloud. Besides, Elder Dad Xu had hit him all over the mouth, forcing Xu Raced to spit blood and cry. What a horrible state he was in now!
Xu Ran expected the village chief to arrive soon, so he yelled even louder.
They soon heard the sound outside the house, as Xu Ran had expected. Tangtang and Guoguo were on the move. They had just arrived at the door when they saw that Xu Ran had been bitten by Xu Hui and Xu Qiang, they hurried forward to help their father.
The village leader trailed close behind. When he saw Xu Ran's miserable look, he exclaimed, "Xu Houcai, Xu Ran is your son. Are you making fun of him because he's a fool? Let the children stop right now."
The Xu Family had not expected the arrival of the village chief. They gave Tangtang and Guoguo a cold stare before asking Zhang Yue to take their children away.
Xu Hui's mouth was soaked with blood as he loosened his grip on Xu Ran. It was possible to tell how much they bit.
When the village head saw this, he scolded them some more. They seemed, however, unchanged. They didn't seem to care one way or the other.
Xu Ran ignored them and continued to yell.
"It hurts a lot. It hurts so bad, Tongtong..."
"What are you shouting for, you jerk? Didn't you just get bitten? It's as if you're going to die. Why don't you ever die and go to hell? Go to hell!" Elder Daddy Xu was enraged when he saw the village chief arrive and help Xu Ran.
Zhang Yue and Xu Cheng shared glances at this point. "The village head, we want to divide up our family property and live separately from my big brother," Xu Cheng said.
"Do you want to split up the family? It is not up to you, Xu Cheng, to decide whether or not to split the family. In addition, Xu Ran is your older brother. You have no legal authority to do so! The village chief despised Xu Cheng, who was a slacker.
About the fact that splitting the family was their own business, they had to get the village head's permission, or they would have a miserable life in Xu Village if they kept on it. As a result, Xu Cheng was worried.
"But dad and daddy have already agreed," he said to the pair of elderly Xu. "You should ask if you don't believe me."
"You all agreed?" the village chief asked the pair of elderly Xu.
Since he was a child, the elderly Xu couple had favored Xu Cheng. They were also aware that if they didn't resolve the family separation request right away, it would be mentioned again in the future. In any case, having four fewer members will make their lives easier.
With these in mind, Xu Houcai looked at his second son and agreed without hesitation.
" Yes, we would split up the family and live separately."

Ya'll better split up, poor Xu Ran Huhu.
