"The first one is to file a lawsuit to sever the parent-child relationship." Qin Hongfei said lightly, "I heard it just now. My father gave you a sum of money and then we didn't have any contact for more than 20 years."
"The second option is that my mother will give you alimony every month. If you want to give the money to your uncle, that's fine. But please don't bother my family anymore. It's clearly written in black and white in the contract."
Old Mrs. Xia didn't want to choose any of them.
Qin Hongfei saw through her thoughts at a glance: "Grandma, I advise you not to say anything like paying off your uncle's debts. Your uncle is your son, not my mother's son. My mother has no obligation to raise a useless person like him."
Someone muttered, "Why bother raising this? Just cut off the relationship and be done with it."
"Don't say that. After all, they are family members. It's okay to give them a few dozen yuan a month to live on."
The crowd was talking, but no one stood on Old Lady Xia's side.
Old Mrs. Xia felt a chill in her heart, "As for alimony, how much should your mother give..." If it's a thousand yuan, that's not impossible.
Qin Hongfei said directly, "One hundred yuan a month."
Old Lady Xia almost choked to death on her saliva, "One hundred yuan? How can we live with that?"
...
...
Qin Hongfei complained even more than she did: "Is one hundred yuan a little? My mother has no salary or income. She relies on my sister's income, which is one hundred yuan a month, which is twelve thousand a year. How much is the average salary in Qinhuai Street?"
In 1999, the salary for unskilled workers was mostly just a few hundred yuan.
Old Lady Xia opened her mouth and said, "No, how can we live on a hundred yuan..."
Qin Hongfei said, "Why can't you live? You two old people have your own income to buy rice and oil. Can two people eat 50 kilograms of rice in a month? With the subsidy from the neighborhood committee, it is enough for daily life. Don't even think about subsidizing your son with luxury food and fish. If you get sick, we will also pay extra medical expenses within the scope of our responsibility. By the way, my mother's money will be deposited into a designated account and supervised by the neighborhood committee. We must ensure that the money is used for you two." The implication was that Xia Shirong should not even think about getting involved.
Old Mrs. Xia said, "No, it has to be at least one thousand a month." She asked for a lot, thinking that one thousand was too high, so she might as well cut it down to five hundred.
Unfortunately, Qin Hongfei didn't even think of giving her a chance to bargain. "Okay, since grandma doesn't accept this way of support, let's go to court. All the uncles have seen what my grandma did. It's not that we don't care, it's that we can't care. If there is anything, we can communicate with a lawyer in the future. Director Zhou, my house was burned and there are still many things to clean up. I'm leaving first."
She left as soon as she said she would, without any room for maneuver.
No one else tried to persuade him. What was there to persuade? The child was so filial. He was willing to support his father even when he was treated like this. What a good child.
If I put myself in the shoes of this kind of relative, I would be so angry that I would die. Whoever wants to care about me can do so. It’s better for them to just leave.
Xia Youren was so angry that he stood up, picked up a stool and threw it out, but he missed, as Qin Hongfei had already run away, but he smashed the reporter's filming equipment.
After leaving the hospital, Qin Hongfei felt much better. She left the hospital directly and returned to the main room, and instructed Yu Chi to find someone to find the loan sharks that Xia Shirong owed and have them take over the house.
Yu Chi was puzzled.
Qin Hongfei said slowly, "You can't burn all the weeds, they will grow again in the spring breeze. Now that we have come this far, we might as well do it to the extreme."
Yu Chi understood and went to do it.
Meng Yu was cleaning up the ruins. Seeing her come back, he couldn't help but sigh, "Ms. Qin, Researcher Qin's book can't be restored."
Qin Hongfei said, "Then throw it away."
What about the making of a good sister? The 123 strategies of a good sister? She didn't even turn a page.
Meng Yu said "oh" and was about to throw it away, then said, "This seems to be the first gift given by Researcher Qin. It would be bad to throw it away. You will be sad, right?"
Qin Hongfei was surprised, "Not really, just a few books." The implication of her words was obviously sarcasm, how could she treasure them as such?
She also gave it to Qin Yan at that time. She thought Qin Yan should have thrown it away. Who would be bored enough to actually go and see it - it's impossible.
She didn't care much.
However, after hearing what Meng Yu said, she hesitated and decided not to throw it away and put it in the warehouse.
The big house burned down and could no longer be lived in, but Qin Hongfei was not too sad about it. The house was old and could be rebuilt.
The Xia family’s house was demolished by loan sharks.
Xia Shirong went to jail, and Xia Lu refused to return the money. The Xia family’s house and land were still worth some money, so they were immediately taken away.
After hearing the news, Xia Youren rushed out of the hospital, only to see the emptied house and the ruins. He fainted in excitement and woke up in the hospital. He had already shown signs of a stroke, and this shock caused him to become paralyzed. All the relatives of the Xia family came to visit him. Xia Shirong was in jail and Xia Lu was not around. Only Old Lady Xia was taking care of Xia Youren, and she was completely unable to take care of the affairs of the first wife.
After hearing the news, Grandma Qin resisted the urge to set off firecrackers, but caught a chicken in the yard, plucked its feathers and burned it. Then she put it in a basket and secretly went up the mountain to worship the ancestors of the Qin family and thank them for their blessings.
Qin Songguo found Qin Hongfei and poked her head with his finger, "Little girl, tell your uncle the truth. Grandpa's stroke has nothing to do with you, right?"
Qin Hongfei rubbed her head and moved away from this childish second uncle. "It doesn't matter. Wasn't it because the loan sharks came to her door and she got excited and had a stroke? What does it have to do with me?"
Qin Songguo looked at her doubtfully, "But how could it be such a coincidence?"
Qin Hongfei sighed, "Maybe God couldn't stand it anymore, Second Uncle, do you think I'm the kind of person who would do that?"
Qin Songguo looked at her silently, "Not like that."
Then he added: "But my sister-in-law did something similar, so I suspect it has something to do with you."
Qin Hongfei was surprised, "What?"
Qin Songguo looked around before squatting down and talking to his niece, "My eldest sister-in-law was once favored by a gangster who wanted to force her to marry him. As a result, my eldest sister-in-law and my eldest brother got together, and the gangster started to cause trouble for my eldest brother. One time, he deliberately broke down an excavator and caused my eldest brother to fall. Someone saw it, so my eldest sister-in-law went to look for him, but he refused to admit his identity and refused to pay compensation, so my eldest sister-in-law beat him up."
Qin Hongfei was puzzled, "Beat her to death? Should fighting be severely punished? Shouldn't my mother be arrested?"
Qin Songguo was speechless. What's wrong with you, kid?
He coughed and said, "Didn't he have a crush on my sister-in-law? My sister-in-law pretended to be pitiful - and then fished, and then - lured him into the trap and... well... killed him, that's it." After he finished speaking, he walked away.
Qin Hongfei just felt confused, and it took her a while to react.
Wasted, you don’t mean the third leg, right?
That guy killed my dad, so my mom used the honey trap to lure him in and then killed him. Even if that guy called the police afterwards, he was the first to attack. So my mom acted in self-defense? Is that right? Oh my god! Ms. Xia Lu, have you ever done this?
She admires him so much, it's amazing.
Qin Songguo went to his old father and said, "Hong Fei said it wasn't her who did it."
Grandpa Qin took a puff of his cigarette, his brows tinged with worry, "Then it's most likely her. Let her be paralyzed. It's good that she's paralyzed. She won't cause any trouble."
Qin Songguo looked at his old father in silence, "Why don't you ask her yourself? Why do you want me to ask her? Are you too embarrassed to admit what happened before?"
Grandpa Qin simply turned around and continued smoking, ignoring him.
It's good enough that you know it. Why speak it out loud? You are as tactless as your son.
Back to the 1990s, she became rich through scientific research
