MTL - Rebirth 1983: Starting From Taking Back the Family Property-Chapter 10 break off engagement
Chapter 10 Dissolution of Engagement
Lu Jiaguang was in a panic. When his third aunt was here, he bought hundreds of dollars worth of things for Xinxin without blinking an eye, but now he was haggling over the settlement expenses.
Lu Jiaxin didn't want to argue with Lu Hongjun. She raised her voice and said, "Two thousand yuan is enough for what? The settlement allowance is at least ten thousand."
This amount not only made Lu Hongjun break through the defense, but also frightened Lu Jiaguang and Liao Xiangmei. Ten thousand, it’s a shame this girl opened her mouth.
Ding Jing almost screamed, but luckily she controlled herself at the last moment: "Jiaxin, our family only has a total of two thousand in savings."
Lu Jiaxin sneered and said to Lu Hongjun: "The beds, wardrobes, sofas, color TVs, refrigerators, and washing machines at home were all purchased when my mother was still alive. If you don't give me the money, I will move all these things over. , and then write down the story about Zhao Siyi hooking up with Fan Yinuo and Ding Jing drugging my food to make me fail the college entrance examination and submit it to newspapers and magazines. If you hurry up, you will be able to see your name in newspapers or magazines in half a month. ”
Lu Hongjun’s face turned green: “Lu Jiaxin, are you crazy?”
If she really did this, her employer would probably ask her to take a back seat in advance, even if she would be embarrassed at her grandma's house.
Lu Jiaxin pointed at Ding Jing and said: "Yes, I am crazy, and you are driving me crazy. I was stupid before. When I was wronged, I only knew how to hide in bed and cry. Whoever wants to make it difficult for me in the future, don't even think about her. If it’s better, we’ll die together if it’s not.”
Lu Jiaguang originally thought that 10,000 yuan was too much to live in, but after hearing what Lu Jiaxin said, he felt that it would be better to order more to save money. The man named Ding said: "Third uncle, you only have a child, Jiaxin, and your things will be the same in the future." Hers. Although ten thousand yuan is a lot, you can’t afford it, so just agree to her!”
Had it not been for her sanity, Ding Jing would have rushed up and scratched Lu Jiaguang's face.
Lu Jiajie also echoed: "Yes, third uncle, your property will be left to Xinxin in a hundred years. What you give in the future will be the same as what you give now."
Ding Jing couldn't bear it anymore and said loudly: "It's easy for you to say, ten thousand yuan, how can our family have so much money?"
The Lu brothers ignored her and only looked at Lu Hongjun.
Lu Hongjun sighed and said: "I will give you five thousand first, and the rest will be given to you next year."
Lu Jiaxin couldn't let him delay for so long: "Although I don't care about anything, I still know roughly how much savings my family has. I will give you six thousand first, then two thousand before the year, and the rest before the Dragon Boat Festival next year."
She actually has Ding Jing's handle, but now she is not capable enough to take this step. Lu Hongjun has been operating in Sijiucheng for so many years, and must have accumulated a lot of contacts. She may be able to use them in the future, and it is better not to fall out with her. Of course, she wouldn't mind breaking up if she didn't give him a cent. It's not like she originally had feelings for Lu Hongjun, so she could still gain sympathy if they had a falling out. However, Lu Hongjun and Ding Jing would stink, and even Zhao Siyi might not be able to stay in school.
Lu Hongjun was silent for a while and then agreed: "Xiao Jing, go and get two thousand. Jia Xin, these two thousand will be used to buy things for you, and the remaining eight thousand will be saved as a dowry."
He did this to prevent Lu Jiaxin from squandering the money, or someone knowing about it and coaxing the money away.
Lu Jiaxin agreed.
Seeing that Ding Jing didn’t move, Lu Hongjun said, “Xiao Jing, go get the money.”
Ding Jing said with tears in her eyes: "Red Army, I have saved more than two thousand through frugality in the past four years. If you just give out ten thousand now, how will we live in the future?"
Lu Hongjun pulled her into the house, and came out after a while. He handed a dozen large groups to Lu Jiaxin: "Save some money, you can't spend money like water like before."
If you can keep two thousand in cash at home, how can you only have five thousand in savings? Lu Jiaxin felt that she would lose 10,000 yuan. It seemed that she would have to find a way to get money from Lu Hongjun in the future.
After Lu Jiaxin took the money, she looked at Ding Jing and said, "There are a cabinet full of clothes, more than 20 pairs of shoes, and two sets of skin care products. If I don't want the things, it will cost me three thousand. Give it to me within three days, or I will go The police accused Ding Wen of stealing.” Ding Jing was successful and scolded her directly: “Lu Jiaxin, are you crazy about money?”
Lu Jiaxin snorted and said: "As soon as I left Sijiu City, you couldn't wait to take away my bankbook and valuables in the house. You also gave my clothes and shoes to Ding Wen in order to eliminate traces of my existence. In addition, In addition, you also let your **** spread rumors in the family home that I was sold to a dirty place by human traffickers. Ding Jing, I just want compensation, but you put me to death so that Zhao Siyi could inherit my father's property and connections. "
Ding Jing discovered that Lu Jiaxin’s mouth is now more powerful than a knife.
A dark glint flashed in Lu Jiaguang's eyes, and he said coldly: "Don't worry, Xinxin. The Ding family won't pay any compensation. I'll go to the water bureau to get it for you."
The second-in-command of the Water Bureau is the brother-in-law of his comrade. With this kind of relationship, the Ding family dare not not lose money.
Ding Jing knew about this relationship. She suppressed her anger and said: "Three thousand is too much. Those clothes, shoes and socks are not worth that much, at most one thousand."
Lu Jiaxin said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, three thousand, not even one penny less will do."
Lu Jiajie rolled his eyes and said, "It's okay if the Ding family doesn't pay any money. Let them buy new clothes and shoes for Xinxin, and they should be exactly the same."
Ding Jing said nothing. Lu Jiaxin's clothes, shoes and socks are all brand-name products. Several winter coats and shoes were brought back from Hong Kong City. These few items cost more than a thousand. To provide her with everything, three thousand is far from enough.
Seeing her compromise, Lu Jiaguang said to Lu Jiaxin: "Just take the valuable things over and let Jiajie deliver the other things to you when the time comes."
He will call a small truck over tomorrow, but there is not enough room for all these things.
"good."
The settlement allowance and compensation have been finalized, and Lu Jiaxin also has to solve another matter. She looked at Liao Xiangmei, who had always treated her as an invisible person, and said: "Aunt Liao, Fan Yinuo has been with Zhao Siyi for more than half a year. I don't want to be such a bad person. It just so happens that my dad, eldest brother and fifth brother are both here. This engagement That’s it.”
She invited Liao Xiangmei to come over, firstly as a witness, and secondly, to take the opportunity to terminate the engagement.
When Liao Xiangmei received the call from Lu Jiaxin, she knew that the matter could no longer be concealed and the engagement could not be extended. She said sadly: "Xinxin, auntie didn't teach Yinuo well, so you were wronged."
Lu Jiaxin took out a safe silver lock from her pocket and handed it to Liao Xiangmei: "This is the token you gave when the two families were engaged, and I will give it back to you now."
Liao Xiangmei pressed Lu Jiaxin's hand and said, "Xinxin, tomorrow I will go to your mother's grave to apologize to her. You keep the silver lock and treat it as a gift from your aunt. I didn't bring the jade pendant your mother gave you today. I’ll deliver it to you tomorrow.”
Lu Jiaxin put the silver lock in Liao Xiangmei's hand and said, "Aunt Liao, this is the safety lock that Fan Yinuo wore when she was a child. I can't keep it. If you don't accept it, I will throw it away."
Liao Xiangmei sighed, took the silver lock, took Lu Jiaxin's hand and said, "Xinxin, it's his fault that Yinuo doesn't know how to cherish it. Don't let this affect our relationship."
Lu Jiaxin refused: "Aunt Liao, I have been engaged to Brother Yinuo. If we still keep in touch frequently, he and Zhao Siyi will think that I haven't let go."
