Li Xiaoyu felt relieved when her mother told her that she was not injured.
"By the way, there's something else I want to show you." Li Yunshu took out the letter of severance from his pocket.
"What's this?"
Li Xiaoyu reached out to take it, opened it and looked at it, her eyes immediately widened.
He raised his head and looked at his grandfather and mother in shock, "B-Broken the letter of kinship?"
She also has a letter of severance!
Li Yunshu nodded. "Your grandfather knew what your father did. In order to prevent him from harassing you and telling you what to do in the future under the banner of your biological father, he asked Lin Yong to offer a price and buy out the father-daughter relationship between him and you."
Li Xiaoyu lowered her head and looked at the letter of severance which said that two thousand yuan was enough to buy out the father-daughter relationship, and a trace of bitterness rose in her heart.
She knew that in her father's heart, she was just an unimportant person, so he could buy off their father-daughter relationship for money.
If it were the eldest and second brothers, I'm afraid he wouldn't agree no matter how much money they offered.
Li Xiaoyu also knew that her grandfather did this for her own good. He had bought off the relationship and no longer cared about her as a daughter. He would only suppress her, belittle her, and not trust her. Lin Yong would never again interfere in her life as a father.
It also prevented things like today from happening again. Moreover, if her father had any problems in the future, he would have no reason to ask her to take care of it, which saved her a lot of trouble.
"Thank you, Grandpa, but two thousand yuan is too much. I will pay you back when I get into college and make some money."
She was so old at the Lin family, her schoolbag was her brothers' old schoolbag, and her clothes were her brothers' old clothes that had been altered. Only when she got married did she have a new cotton-padded jacket made by her mother. How could she have spent two thousand yuan of her father's money?
Moreover, at that time, it was not only her father who earned money to support the family, but also her mother.
Old Master Li shook his head and said, "If you don't think about returning this money to Grandpa, spending two thousand yuan to buy off a father-daughter relationship is not a lot."
Anyway, it doesn't seem like much to him.
Li Yunshu took the letter of severance from Xiaoyu's hand, curled his lips and said, "Lin Yong is really lucky."
Mr. Li said, "In a couple of days, take this engagement letter and publish it in the newspaper. Also, take a photo of the one you signed with those two unfilial sons and publish it in the newspaper."
Li Yunshu nodded. Even if he signed the agreement and published it in the newspaper, from a legal perspective, it would not be possible to terminate the blood relationship and legal obligations.
But it was just a formality, a severance of social relations and emotional ties, so that everyone in the social circle knew that they had severed their relationship, and the Lin family would not do anything under their name.
This marriage agreement was signed by the Lin family themselves, so anyone with a bit of dignity would not come to them again. Even if they did, they would be considered shameless and unreasonable, and would inevitably be criticized by those they knew.
This letter of kinship was an effective proof for her and Xiaoyu to refuse the harassment from the Lin family in the future.
It was hard to say about Lin Guodong and Lin Jianshe, but based on her understanding of Lin Yong, he was a face-conscious person. After signing the engagement letter and taking the money, he probably wouldn't have the nerve to look for Xiaoyu again.
After work, Yard 18 was very lively, and everyone was talking about Li Yunshu.
"Sister Zhao and Sister Wang, you have such a good relationship with Li Shuping, but she didn't even tell you that she recognized her as your relative?" Xiaochun's mother asked Aunt Zhao and Aunt Wang.
The two looked at each other and were about to speak when Mrs. Lai said, "She definitely didn't tell me. She has a powerful family now, so she must be on guard against poor relatives and friends asking her for help!"
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Mrs. Lai said, tsk- ...
Qiao Xiangliu curled her lips and continued, "Isn't it? My mom and the others are still taking care of her business when she's old."
Zhao Wenjuan rolled her eyes at Qiao Xiangliu. "Ren Shuping's Dumpling Shop is doing so well, why should we take care of it? On the contrary, every time we go there, she either brings soup or cold dishes, and gives us a lot of dumplings. So, we're really taking advantage of her by eating dumplings there."
"That's right." Aunt Wang nodded and said, "Besides, Ren Shuping had already told us about finding her family, but she just asked us not to tell anyone else."
outsider?
Hearing these two words, Lin Guodong's heart was stabbed. In his mother's mind, he was not as good as Aunt Zhao and Aunt Wang. They all knew about her finding her relatives, but he, as a son, did not know.
"You already knew this?" Zhang Jiao looked at Aunt Wang and asked, "Then do you know what my mother-in-law did when she found my family?"
As soon as she got home from work, everyone in the yard was talking about Li Shuping, saying that the family she had found was of extraordinary status and that the director of the steel plant had to respect her.
She asked Lin Guodong, but he didn't know either, only saying that it was definitely no worse than their factory director's family.
Aunt Wang and Zhao Wenjuan exchanged glances, then taunted Zhang Jiao, "Where do you get your mother-in-law from? Lin Guodong severed his mother-son relationship a long time ago."
"That's right." Zhao Wenjuan followed up, "Ren Shuping recognizes her family. No matter how good her family is, it has nothing to do with you."
"..." Zhang Jiao choked, then said shamelessly: "How can it not be related? That's Guodong's grandparents' home, and Guodong has their blood flowing in his veins."
"Besides, this blood relationship can't be severed by a piece of paper."
"Li Shuping doesn't recognize Guodong as her son, but who knows, his grandparents might want to recognize my Guodong as their grandson, and my Junjun as their great-grandson."
Zhao Wenjuan smiled, she was really shocked by Zhang Jiao's thick skin.
Aunt Wang said, "Come on, if someone really wanted to recognize someone, they would have come to recognize your Lin Guodong long ago."
Zhang Jiao said, "That must be because my mother-in-law hid it from others. They didn't know she had a son, so they didn't come to recognize him. If they knew, they would definitely recognize him."
The old man likes his grandchildren the most, and he also likes the meaning of having many children, grandchildren and good fortune.
Li Shuping was partial to him. She took Li Xiaoyu to recognize her as her relative and changed her surname to hers without even thinking about her son.
Zhao Wenjuan rolled her eyes. It was a good thing that the Li family didn't come and beat Lin Guodong up. How could they still recognize him?
This Zhang Jiao really has no self-awareness at all.
Liu Jian listened to everyone's discussion and suddenly remembered that he had seen someone who looked like Aunt Li outside the Beijing Hotel.
He also joined in, "Sure enough, the person I saw outside the Jing Hotel before was Aunt Li!"
"When?" Everyone looked at Liu Jian.
Liu Jian thought for a moment and said, "It was around the end of July. My factory director and I went to the Beijing Hotel to meet a foreign client. When we were leaving, I saw Aunt Li standing at the door with a lot of people, seeing them off."
"My Aunt Li was so beautiful that day, wearing a purple cheongsam and adorned with jewels. She looked like a movie star in a magazine. I didn't even recognize her."
