Actually, Gu Chengyu had already considered this point, so he never brought up the idea of family division.
Firstly, when he and his third brother and fourth brother were young, the family relied on the eldest and second brother, so he wanted to make up for it a bit; secondly, if he could earn silver but proposed dividing the family, he would inevitably be seen as heartless; even Mr. Gu might think so, after all, they are his own sons; thirdly, as a scholar, he had to consider his own reputation.
Therefore, no matter what, he couldn't be the one to propose the family division.
When Lin Lize mentioned it, Mr. Gu also thought about it. The second son was the one who brought up dividing the family, so Xiao Bao shouldn't take the blame for this! By this time, everyone had arrived, and Mr. Gu decided to explain the reason for the family division.
