Chapter 51 Reselling Jobs-
Surprisingly, Xia Yaoyao and Li Yinshuang really meant what they said about leaving.
The next day, they packed their bags and prepared to leave.
Xia Mi and Huo Jinying saw the two off. After breakfast, Huo Jinying went into the room and when she came out she had an extra document in her hand.
Huo Jinying held the fist in her hand the whole time, and Li Yinshuang felt annoyed just watching.
While Huo Jinying and Xia Mi were admiring the sea view in the back, Li Yinshuang lowered her voice and talked quietly with Xia Yaoyao.
"Yaoyao, can we just leave like this?"
"Mom, can't you see that Xia Mi has changed? She won't listen to anything you say to her now. She's talking to a deaf person. We'll figure out what to do later. Anyway, Xia Mi can't go back to Suzhou now."
Li Yinshuang agreed, "It's only been a month, and this damn girl is still the same as before except for her appearance, everything else is really different!"
"Don't worry about her. Let her do whatever she wants. If she doesn't have any connections, the Huo guy won't be able to leave this island unless he retires."
This trip was not without gain. At least it was confirmed that Xia Mi could not return to Suzhou through the Yan family.
"That's good."
Li Yinshuang looked back at Huo Jinying and Xia Mi with disgust.
"Countryside peasants have no rules at all."
Huo Jinying caught a glimpse of Li Yinshuang rolling her eyes at her and sneered inwardly, wondering how long they could maintain this arrogance.
"How did you come up with the idea of a contract? When Huo Jingchen asked me to inquire, the lawyers said that contracts are generally used for business dealings. Yours is rare, almost non-existent."
"I've heard from the masters in the factory before that the factory requires signing contracts to enforce discipline, so I wanted to try and see if I could use the contract for family relationships."
The current legal system is not perfect, which means that as long as it is written in black and white and signed, it will be valid.
She had mentioned this matter to Huo Jingchen, but she didn't expect that Huo Jinying would deliver it. At first, she really thought that Huo Jinying had prepared gifts for them.
When she mentioned it before going to bed last night, she realized that the gift was actually a contract.
All the way to the dock, Xia Yaoyao and Li Yinshuang ignored Huo Jinying and Xia Mi.
When they were about to board the boat, Huo Jinying stopped them and said, "Wait, I haven't given you my things yet."
"Who wants your stuff? You should keep it for yourself."
Li Yinshuang wanted to get on the boat without looking back, but Huo Jinying coughed and the guards who had greeted them stopped the two.
Huo Jinying opened the leather bag and took out two contracts.
"This is the contract that severs your relationship with Xia Mi. Just sign it and you can leave."
"Contract?" Xia Yaoyao looked at the two handwritten contracts in Huo Jinying's hand in shock. She took one and quickly read through the contents.
The general content is that Xia Mi is not the biological daughter of the Xia family, and she has severed ties with the Xia family since the signing. The Xia family cannot borrow money in any name of Xia Mi, or seek benefits in other names.
After reading it, Xia Yaoyao felt a chill on her back, and the thought of it was terrifying.
The wind of reform has not yet started to blow, and few people know the binding nature of the contract. Even most people don’t know what a contract is.
If the contract is signed, what will happen if Xia Mi finds out about Sang Qi? In just a moment, Xia Yaoyao felt like her brain was about to explode.
She had thought about everything, and even planned out how to deal with being exposed, so why did a contract suddenly appear? "What's wrong? Is it difficult to sign it, or have you really thought about this?"
Xia Mi looked at the two hesitant people and confirmed that her idea was correct.
She looked at the two of them coldly, and urged them impatiently, "You can leave after signing. Aren't you in a hurry to go back?"
"You are an ungrateful bastard. You are just guarding against us like this. We haven't gained any benefit from you in the past 20 years. Do we think we can get any benefit from you in 20 years?"
After reading the contents of the contract, Li Yinshuang was so angry that she started cursing.
Huo Jinying frowned slightly, and when she was about to retort, Xia Mi stepped forward.
"Who can say for sure what will happen in the future? If you want to prove that you can't get anything out of me, then sign the letter."
Li Yinshuang breathed heavily and explained loudly, "I'm just disappointed. I raised you for twenty years! Now that you're married, you have to sign a contract with me, and I can't even say a few words?"
Li Yinshuang saw that Xia Yaoyao looked unhappy, so she deliberately delayed time so that she could think about how to respond.
"We can't sign this unless you pay our parents child support for all these years!" Xia Yaoyao reacted quickly and refused.
Huo Jinying was now certain that Xia Mi and Huo Jingchen's guesses were correct.
"Your parents have invested so much effort in you, training you to learn piano since you were young, and buying you so many things. Do you really think you can enjoy them for nothing? That is the life that should have belonged to me."
Xia Yaoyao couldn't bear it anymore.
"Tell me, how much do you want?" Xia Mi was unusually calm. "Tell me a number."
Xia Yaoyao and Li Yinshuang looked at each other, surprised that Xia Mi would actually agree.
"Mom, you know about this matter. Just give me a brief explanation." Xia Yaoyao threw the question to Li Yinshuang.
Li Yinshuang thought about it carefully and quickly estimated a number in her mind, but when she thought about saying it in front of so many people, she got scared.
If she said it out loud, would these people think she was blackmailing her? But if she said less, it would be a bargain for Xia Mi, and Li Yinshuang felt tormented.
"If you can't tell me the number, how about I help you tell it?"
Although Xia Mi said this with a smile, there was no trace of smile in her eyes.
“Three thousand!”
The whole audience was in an uproar, and even the people passing by couldn't help but look over when they heard the number.
Huo Jinying, who had never worried about money since she was a child, thought it was outrageous. Three thousand yuan, how many people can afford three thousand yuan now? Xia Yaoyao looked at Li Yinshuang in surprise. Three thousand yuan!
Soon, she put away her surprised expression. Considering the financial situation of the Xia family, three thousand was already a low amount.
"Are you sure?"
The reactions of people around her were too great, and Li Yinshuang, who had gone through a gray period, became extremely sensitive.
She hurriedly explained, "Three thousand is considered a small amount. You know your food, clothing, housing and transportation expenses."
Three thousand is within Xia Mi's acceptable range.
"Okay, then let's calculate the cost of Xia Yaoyao's stay in the Sang family from childhood to adulthood. Twenty years, five hundred, that's not too much, right? Then let's talk about my work at the textile factory. If I sell it to you for one thousand, do you have any objections?"
"After I graduated from technical secondary school, I never asked my family for a penny, and I gave all my wages to my family. I was a formal employee, earning 36 yuan a month, which was 664 yuan in two years. After deducting 200 yuan for living expenses, I still had 400 yuan left."
All in all, Xia Mi only needs to give eleven thousand.
"Also, when I was in technical secondary school, I took exams on behalf of others to get work quotas three times in order to do you a favor. How should these be calculated?"
The Xia family has a wide network of contacts, and many of them have access to information about factory recruitment.
The factory recruits workers who have to pass an exam and are admitted based on merit. The original owner had good grades since childhood and did a lot of favors for the Xia family.
Take the exam, then admit and finally sell it to others.
Not a penny of the money was taken, it was all used as favors.
Counting three times, it just corresponds to the work of Xia's father, Xia's mother and eldest brother, if Huo Jingchen hadn't mentioned the work that day.
Xia Mi almost forgot that the original owner had such a memory.
When the old things were brought up again, Li Yinshuang was stunned. She had almost forgotten these things.
