"Are you willing to acknowledge him as your grandson?" Tang Yulan snorted. "That's fine. Since you're willing to acknowledge him as your grandson, you have to give Xiao Lin living expenses when he returns to the countryside, right?"
Xiao Aiguo's expression became even uglier. He gritted his teeth and said, "Of course."
Tang Yulan nodded, and quickly added: "Everyone has heard that Mr. Xiao still recognizes Xiao Lin as his grandson and is willing to give Xiao Lin living expenses.
But I think this matter must be made clear today. Everyone has seen that Xiao Lin is still a child, he is only six years old this year, and he has no ability to earn money to support himself.
So I have to help him find out about the living expenses. Otherwise, if the living expenses are cut off, what will he do in the countryside? "
Du Yue'e said unhappily, "If he has no living expenses, he can come back to Longjing to find us."
Tang Yulan immediately demanded, "If you cut off even his living expenses, how can he expect to have a good life if he comes back to you? I'm worried about this, so I'm putting my face on the line and helping him get to the bottom of this!"
Tang Yulan spoke in a loud voice, and directly retorted Du Yue'e so that she couldn't say anything back.
She quickly added, "Regarding Xiao Lin's living expenses, how much do you plan to give him per month? For how long? Also, where do you plan to let him live?
Although you used to live in the cowshed, now that you are back, Xiao Lin definitely cannot continue to live in the cowshed. It is not safe for him to live there alone.
There are no extra empty houses in our village. After Xiao Lin returns, he can only live in someone else's house. He moves in and occupies someone else's house, so he has to pay rent, right?
Housing in the countryside is not very spacious, and everyone lives in a crowded space. Even if we consider Xiao Lin's pity for being alone and give him the cheapest place, the monthly rent would still be at least one dollar.
And the food expenses, can he cook for himself when he is so young? If he wants to cook for himself, he needs a stove and firewood, right? Even if he can collect firewood by himself, what about the stove?
It's okay for him to borrow someone else's stove once or twice, but if he keeps borrowing it, it would be inappropriate not to pay. For three meals a day, the rent for the stove alone should be at least one dollar, right?
And how do you calculate the food he eats? I don't know how much he can eat three times a day, but you should at least prepare ten yuan for his food expenses, right?
What if he gets sick again, such as having a headache or fever and needs medicine, which costs money? You must prepare the money for him. You can't let the villagers pay for it first, right?
Unlike you city dwellers, who have fixed salaries, country folks don't have much money. If the child gets sick and there's no money to treat him, it will be a big waste of time.
What if something unexpected happens? What will happen to Xiao Lin? Who will take the responsibility? Most importantly, how long do you plan to let him stay in the countryside? If he can't find his biological parents, does he have to stay in the countryside forever?
Tang Yulan asked all the key questions, which made Xiao Aiguo so angry that he almost vomited blood.
This woman is really brave!
The food expenses and rent alone were twelve dollars a month, and they also had to prepare money for Xiao Lin's medical treatment.
How bold of you to say that!
"So I figured you'd have to give him at least fifteen dollars a month. That's a hundred and fifty dollars a year. If you give him more than a few years, it'll be several hundred dollars."
Tang Yulan said this and looked straight at Xiao Aiguo: "So, Mr. Xiao, you have to think it over carefully."
