Chapter 257: Paying Money at Home
After Lin Yuzhu got off work, although she was anxious to go back and tell Zhao Yanshu about the Zhao family's plan, she still went to buy some pastries first.
After all, this was what Shuyao had been promised before. She did well in the final exam this time, and the pastries as a reward were also promised by Lin Yuzhu. If she didn't bring them back, the child would probably be disappointed.
Fortunately, it didn't take much time. After returning, she told Zhao Yanshu about it.
Zhao Yanshu frowned and was silent for a moment. "What do you think?"
Lin Yuzhu said directly: "I thought, since the relationship is severed, I should just return the money I earned from the division of the family to them, as a way of repaying their kindness in raising me."
Although she said so, she was still unhappy. After all, she knew that Zhao Yanshu's biological mother did give compensation.
But there is no way to prove it now, so this is the only way. Otherwise, that family will probably have to find a way to get here.
Zhao Yanshu sighed after hearing this, "Sorry, I wronged you."
Lin Yuzhu shook her head. "I don't feel wronged, nor do I feel bad about the money. I just feel bad for you. Fortunately, this is the last time. They won't have the chance or reason to come to my house again in the future."
"Okay, then let's do as you say."
Lin Yuzhu nodded. "Okay, this matter should be dealt with as soon as possible. I will send the money tomorrow, but you don't have to go over there. I can go by myself."
Otherwise, as an adopted son, others would inevitably think he is heartless.
Zhao Yanshu was a little worried at first and didn't want her to do it alone, but Lin Yuzhu insisted, and she assured him many times that everything would be fine, so Zhao Yanshu had no choice but to agree.
"Okay, I'll listen to you then."
…
The next day was a holiday, so Lin Yuzhu got up early, packed her things, took a deep breath, cheered herself up, and prepared to go out.
Seeing her like she was going to the battlefield, Zhao Yanshu was a little worried, but before he could say anything, Lin Yuzhu left in a hurry.
After she left, Zhao Yanshu arranged for the child and left the house, not telling anyone what he was doing...
Here, Lin Yuzhu did not go directly to the Zhao family, but went to the street office first, found the clerk who signed the severance certificate for them last time, and told him the purpose of his visit.
The people from the subdistrict office were surprised. "You mean, even though you broke off the relationship, you're still willing to compensate them for some child support?"
"Yes," Lin Yuzhu nodded and said earnestly: "Although the Zhao family is only my husband's adoptive parents, and my mother-in-law also gave him compensation when she raised him, it was not given by my husband after all.
So we thought, since we are no longer related, we should return the money they gave us to repay their kindness in raising us for so many years."
The people at the street office sighed after hearing this. The parents were about to break off the relationship, but the child was still willing to give money, which showed that the two were filial and kind-hearted.
When they heard that the separation fee was not small, they were actually willing to pay it all back. It was obvious that they were completely disappointed and it was also obvious that they didn't want to have any contact with the Zhao family at all.
Yes, everyone around here knows what the Zhao family has done. When they got into trouble, they, as parents, not only did not comfort them, but also stepped on them. Now that they have overcome the difficulties, the first thing they did was to cut off ties with them, even at the cost of giving them so much money.
I think they would rather lose money than have any disputes with the Zhao family.
The people from the street office thought so but didn't show it. After hearing this, they nodded and followed her to the slum where the Zhao family lived.
