Chapter 23 Dad, Xu Lin Can't Stay
Xu Lin watched Xu's father leave, a look of confusion flashing across her face.
This guy already has a weapon in his hand, why does he let the white-haired old man prepare weapons to fight her?
Doesn't he believe the white-haired old man?
Although she didn't understand, Xu Lin still entered the secret room. She waved her little hand and started to clean up. Soon, the secret room of more than ten square meters was completely cleaned up by her.
When Mr. Xu comes to get something next time, hehe, thinking about Mr. Xu's dead face, Xu Lin covers her mouth and laughs.
On the way back, Xu Lin did not continue to follow Xu's father, but turned and went to a tabloid office in the west of the city.
It only takes ten minutes by bike to get to the tabloid office from here.
When Xu Lin arrived, the staff in the newspaper office had already left work, leaving only one staff member on duty.
He was quite surprised to see Xu Lin coming to him so late.
When the staff heard that Xu Lin was here to publish a severance notice, they were not surprised at all.
In this special era, severing ties of relationship is not too common. There are various ways of severing ties of relationship, such as between father and son, between grandfather and grandson, and between husband and wife.
However, after he heard Xu Lin's life story, the staff fell silent. They didn't expect that there would be such a reason for breaking off a relationship.
They are clearly biological children, but they choose to sever the relationship in order to take care of their adopted daughter. What kind of family are they?
"This is my severance letter. Take a look. I'm not lying." Xu Lin took out two severance letters for him to review.
After reading it, the staff member felt even more sympathetic towards Xu Lin.
Look, he was abused for sixteen years in the adoptive family, and his biological parents didn't say anything at all, and they even took care of the children in the adoptive father's family.
Tsk tsk, what's wrong with the biological parents' brains to be so stupid.
If this happened to him, he would take the child to his side in a moment, and then severely retaliate against the adoptive father's family to seek justice for the child.
The staff member asked with some distress:
"Girl, our newspaper office can help you publish your divorce notice. Do you want it to be expedited or put in the next issue of the newspaper?"
In case Xu Lin didn't understand, he added, "There will be a newspaper printed tonight.
We can expedite your posting, but it will cost extra. If you are not in a hurry, you can wait for the next issue, which will be published in three days."
"I choose to expedite it." Xu Lin immediately took out a small amount of money, not knowing when Xu's father would make his move.
It would be great if we could make an announcement tomorrow, but we can't delay it any further.
"Okay, it will cost two more dollars for expedited delivery. I'll write you a receipt." The staff member said as he took out the receipt and issued an invoice.
Xu Lin took the receipt and handed over the money, then said goodbye to the staff with a smile. Seeing Xu Lin was about to leave, the staff couldn't help but ask:
"You've severed ties with both sides. How are you going to live in the future?"
"If nothing unexpected happens, I will go to the countryside as an educated youth. I believe that in this vast world, I will make a difference."
After Xu Lin finished speaking, she waved to the staff and left with ease.
When Xu Lin returned to the Xu family, Xu's father was already sitting in the main room waiting for her.
Seeing Xu Lin coming back, Xu's father didn't ask her where she had been. He just stuffed five thousand yuan into Xu Lin's pocket and went back to the house.
He didn't want to say a word more.
After receiving the money, Xu Lin went back to the house with a smile, closed the door, and then entered the space with the small change.
She wanted to check what she had gained from this trip and see how many treasures Father Xu had hidden in that secret room.
Xu Lin first opened the small suitcase and counted the small change inside. There was 53,000 yuan.
Adding the 5,000 yuan in hand, it would be 58,000 yuan, worth two or three courtyard houses.
Xu Lin put the small suitcase on the shelf with a smile and continued to open the blind box.
The last count was of boxes of all sizes and 110 large yellow croakers, each weighing 500 grams.
At the current price of 9 yuan per gram, the yellow croaker alone can fetch 495,000 yuan. If it is sold in 20 or 30 years,
Xu Lin's eyes turned into crescent-shaped ones when she smiled, but that was a string of numbers.
In addition to the big yellow croaker, there are 200 pieces of small yellow croaker, each piece is 50 grams, which is 90,000 yuan, which is a huge sum.
Xu Lin found that even without considering other things, if she exchanged the yellow croakers of various sizes that she had caught in the past few days for small amounts of money, she would be a millionaire.
Being a millionaire in the seventies is still very valuable. Xu Lin feels that she can now enter retirement mode and just let it go.
Of course, there were not only yellow croakers in the boxes, but also ancient books, calligraphy and paintings, and other cultural relics. Xu Lin did not calculate the value.
They are all placed in the cultural relics area, and they will have to be handed in later.
What concerned Xu Lin the most were a box of grenades, a box of mines, two boxes of bullets and a dozen black guns.
I don’t know where Mr. Xu got this thing. It’s a bit hot in my hand.
However, there is no good place to put it for the time being, so it can only be placed in the warehouse for now.
Suddenly Xu Lin jumped up on the spot and said, "Oh no, I forgot. I'm one bowl less than the three bowls a day. No, I have to make up for it."
Xu Lin slipped out of the space and rushed out of the room, starting the third beating of the day.
The five members of the Xu family: ...Can you please be a human being? Will you die if you are beaten less?
After stretching her muscles, Xu Lin left the five members of the Xu family in pain and returned to her room to practice refreshed.
The next day when Xu Lin got up, the house was empty. Some were at work, and some were hiding out.
That's because I was afraid of being pressed to the ground and rubbed early in the morning.
You can only avoid the first day, but can you avoid the fifteenth?
Xu Lin went into the kitchen and prepared herself a hearty breakfast. After eating and drinking her fill, she went out.
She would go to the white-haired old man to check again, and then buy a few newspapers with the severance notice for her collection.
The only good thing about this era is that you can really sever ties with someone, unlike in later times where you can’t sever ties with someone even if you want to, and it’s not supported by law.
Not long after Xu Lin left the yard, Old Mrs. Xu sneaked back home. The frightened expression on her face was really interesting.
Of course Xu Lin couldn't see all this, as she was holding a newspaper and admiring her own achievements.
After school at noon, Qin Fang met Xu's father in the grove behind the school, and learned from him the news that Xu Lin had severed the relationship with the Qin family.
But Qin Fang was very happy. She calmed down, but she felt that Xu Lin herself was a threat.
Who knows if the Qin family will suddenly think of Xu Lin one day and say to Xu's father:
"Dad, Xu Lin can't stay here. You should find a way to get rid of her. If that doesn't work, send her to the countryside."
"Don't worry, Fang'er. I've already registered her for the rural program. Of course, rural program is only her last resort. I actually want to kill her in the city."
When Xu's father mentioned Xu Lin, he couldn't hide the murderous aura in his eyes.
That little bastard had killed him last night, and he didn't recover until midnight.
In order to avoid the beating in the morning, he hid out of the house before daybreak.
Now he had not had a good rest and his whole body was in pain. Life was very difficult. He wanted Xu Lin to die more than anyone else.
Unable to hold back for a moment, Xu's father said a few more words about what Xu Lin had done in the past few days. He almost cried as he spoke. It was really hard for him.
