"You can give it to me, but you have to write an IOU and pay interest, otherwise we won't lend it to you." Old Mrs. Shen didn't have the time to beat around the bush with them, so she was the first to express her attitude.
Old Mrs. Lin was even more unhappy. "IOU? Why do you need an IOU? Do you have to write an IOU when you give money to your family members?"
"My family is my family, I know what kind of people they are. But we all know why your son wants to borrow money. I can't guarantee that your son will pay it back. He might even gamble with it. So if he wants to borrow money, he has to write this IOU."
"We are relatives, family!" Old Mrs. Lin emphasized. She knew that Lin Hai owed a lot of money, and it was good enough that he could pay off his gambling debts. How could he have the money to pay back the Shen family?
So no matter what, you can't write an IOU.
"Didn't you hear what Fubao said just now? Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that we are not related by blood, but are in-laws, so we have to be more clear about it."
Seeing that Mrs. Lin looked reluctant, Mrs. Shen said in a colder voice, "If you don't want to write an IOU, just leave and don't come to my house anymore."
As she spoke, she suddenly looked at Lin Xiujuan and said coldly, "Xiujuan, when you used money to help your mother's family before, didn't you say that it was the last time and that you would not help your brother pay off his debts and would not indulge them anymore? Why are they coming to you again? You also said that if they come to borrow money again, you will divorce Jianlin and leave the house! Have you forgotten?"
When Lin Xiujuan heard this, she knew that Mrs. Shen was trying to scare the Lin family.
As expected, Mrs. Lin and Lin Hai's expressions changed immediately.
"Xiujuan, you...you said this? Why are you so stupid? Why did you say it so harshly? We come to borrow money and you leave the house with nothing? Are you stupid?" Old Mrs. Lin wailed.
"That's what she said. So, if you want to borrow money, in addition to writing an IOU, you also have to let Xiujuan divorce Jianlin, and then you take her back. She will no longer have any relationship with our Shen family."
Old Mrs. Shen spoke in a serious and firm manner.
In order to cooperate with her, Lin Xiujuan's eyes suddenly turned red, and she choked up and said, "Mom, you can't let Jianlin and I divorce. I'm pregnant, right? What should I do if we get divorced? I didn't ask them to come to my house. They came on their own. It has nothing to do with me."
Old Mrs. Lin thought, divorce is not an option. Once divorced, she will have nothing to do with the Shen family. It will only bring immediate benefits, which is not worthwhile in the long run.
She absolutely didn't want Lin Xiujuan and Shen Jianlin to divorce.
And Old Lady Shen said this only to stop the Lin family from having any evil intentions. There would be no good things if they came to their house.
Every time they took the money and never returned it, she had seen through this group of people, so she simply blocked the road and put on a determined and fierce look, scaring Old Lady Lin and Lin Hai opposite so much that they didn't know what to do.
Old Mrs. Lin could never imagine that her in-law would do such a ruthless thing. She immediately opened her voice and yelled, "Oh my God, my daughter has given birth to five children for you since she married into your Shen family. Now she is pregnant with another one. Even if you don't think well of her, you can't keep asking for divorce. Do you think that the people in our Lin family are dead? If you divorce, how will she live? What about the children? Wouldn't that mean she will be motherless?"
