There was a long pause on the other end of the line. Li Mei held the phone in disbelief. This man, who couldn't even make a fart with three sticks, actually wanted to sue her? She was a little panicked: "Fang Zhiyi, it was you who agreed to let my daughter be mine. We had an agreement."
Fang Zhiyi smiled and said, "Yes, handwritten agreements contain a lot of unfair clauses. Let me explain to you that they are not legally binding."
"you..."
"Stop talking nonsense. I still say the same thing. Wait for the subpoena." Fang Zhiyi hung up the phone.
Li Mei felt a little uncomfortable. She walked around the house for a long time, crying and apologizing to each of her relatives. Only then did her relatives reluctantly forgive her. It was not until her grandfather suddenly asked her about her granddaughter's death that she remembered that her daughter was taken away by Fang Zhiyi.
Even after making this call, Li Mei felt a little uneasy. Her aunt beside her was cracking melon seeds. "He sued you? What right did he have to sue you? Otherwise, I'd say you're stupid. You can't even control a useless man. But then again, why are you carrying a little girl around? She's worthless. If you ask me, you might as well throw her to Fang while you can and find another man to marry. Hey, that carpenter at the east end of the village is pretty good."
The old man also said: "Listen to your sister more. We are all family and we will not harm you."
Li Mei just lowered her head silently. In her heart, everything her sister said was right, but she really didn't like the carpenter. Not only was he more than ten years older than her, but he was also blind in one eye. As for her daughter, she couldn't explain it clearly. She just didn't want to leave her ex-husband anything, including her daughter.
Seeing that she didn't say anything, Li Xue rolled her eyes: "Still being picky? I'm doing this for your own good."
Fang Zhiyi had not expected that the legal process in this world was quite different. For a dispute like this, someone quickly contacted him and asked him and Li Mei to come in for on-site mediation.
The final conclusion was that Li Mei had to keep clear records of the child support payments every month, Fang Zhiyi had the right to audit the accounts, and the laws of their country did not support their agreement. However, Fang Zhiyi had no fixed job and no house of his own, so he could now take the child away for two days a week and no one could stop him.
After the mediation was completed, Li Mei looked at Fang Zhiyi with a gloomy face. Fang Ruoruo trotted over and hugged her: "Mom!"
Li Mei looked down and saw Fang Ruoruo wearing a new dress. She bit her lip. What did Fang Zhiyi mean by this? He was the only one who knew what was good for the child? Buying a new dress and a new schoolbag was good for the child? Pah! But she didn't dare do anything. The mediator was still on the scene.
Li Mei brought Fang Ruoruo to her parents' home. Looking at the refreshed Fang Ruoruo, Li Xue was still sarcastic: "Hey, didn't you go to enjoy the good life with your father? Why are you here again?"
Fang Ruoruo's smile slowly faded. She could feel an invisible pressure enveloping her. Fang Ruoruo carefully went into the room, took off her new clothes and folded them neatly. She had to work at this point, and it would be bad if they got dirty.
The food that night was very sumptuous, at least for Fang Ruoruo, but she still sat in the corner.
"Fourth sister, you're being quite generous today," Li Xue said. "Did you win the lawsuit?"
Li Mei pursed her lips and whispered the ending.
Li Xue's eyes widened. "What? He wants to check the accounts? What does he mean? He means that we relatives are still fighting for a child's support? Huh? Do you have any conscience?"
My uncle-in-law standing by also had a grim expression on his face.
Li Mei quickly explained, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. We're all relatives, so why should we be so clear about what we are? I'll keep my tabs, and we all eat together, right, Ruoruo?"
At this time, Fang Ruoruo was staring at the braised pork far away from her. She hesitated for a moment after hearing this, but looking at her mother, she nodded.
The aunt then laughed and said, "It was not in vain, it was not in vain. I thought this little girl had turned into an ungrateful little girl after going out with her father."
Fang Ruoruo also received recognition from her mother, a piece of braised pork.
