Chapter 1408: Chapter 1407: Zhang Laojiu, Are You Being Reasonable?

Chapter 1407 Zhang Laojiu, Do You Speak Reason?

Zhang Laojiu looked at Shuiyu and Shui Jun: "Then the father’s debt is repaid by the children, Shuiyu and Shui Jun each bear half. Otherwise, they follow their mom away, and who will I ask for money to support me in the future? This ten thousand yuan will be considered as their advance payment for my retirement money."

Everyone looked at Zhang Laojiu with eyes that changed from anger to disdain: A grown man, making a university student and a minor son and daughter repay his debt?

Moreover, this nearly ten thousand yuan, at a time when everyone’s salary was only tens of yuan, how heavy is this debt, does he not know?

He intends to shift the burden he should bear onto the two children.

But by framing it as retirement money, it’s hard for everyone to say anything.

Because when couples divorce, even if children follow one side, when parents are old, children are still obligated to pay for their retirement.

Lin Mei was furious: "Zhang Laojiu, do you speak reason or not?"

Zhang Laojiu shamelessly said: "They’ve all gone with you, but they’re also my children. I gave them life, raised them to this age, why can’t they bear some debt? Besides, I just said this is only their advance retirement money!"

Shui Jun’s gaze towards his father became even colder.

Everyone looked sympathetically at Shuiyu and Shui Jun, especially the still minor Shui Jun.

Shui Jun was only fourteen years old, and his father wanted him to bear this heavy burden. Even if he worked and made forty-something a month, eating only buns and saving thirty, it would take over ten years to pay off this debt!

But suddenly, Shuiyu said: "Are you saying, if we pay off this debt with this money, then we’re severed from you and have no relationship?"

No relationship?

Just saying no and it’s over?

Zhang Laojiu’s heart actually felt some dull pain.

But thinking of that nearly ten thousand yuan debt, remembering Shuangshuang’s words: "You must get back that five thousand yuan to repay the debt, otherwise, I won’t care about you."

Not caring about you means not being with you anymore.

How could he bear to let go of Xiang Shuangshuang? So he must get the money back.

He gritted his teeth and said, "That’s the idea!"

Everyone was extremely astonished, how could they say just giving up on two grown kids, and have no relationship?

If it’s just divorce, even though they follow one person, they are still the other one’s children, and must pay for the other parent’s retirement.

Furthermore, this pair of siblings, the daughter was admitted to university, the son’s grades were good too. They are capable and promising children.

Just saying you don’t want them and it’s done?

Thinking of Laojiu having another son over at Shuangshuang’s, and remembering Lin Mei said that all three years of transport income were sent to raise that child, he probably wants that son to support him?

But, that child is only over two years old, who knows when he’ll grow up, and besides, will others willingly let you take the child?

Shuiyu turned to Mengyu and said: "Elder Sister, please lend me ten thousand yuan, I’ll pay you back later."

Actually, Shuiyu herself had money, she had previously wanted to help her family live well, and collecting antiques required money, so she withdrew ten thousand yuan cash in Capital City.

Later, Dream Sky compensated her ten thousand yuan as hush money. Therefore, she had two hundred thousand cash on her.

But asking Mengyu for a loan naturally was to let Zhang Laojiu know this money was borrowed.

Mengyu also understood her intention, she discreetly took out ten thousand yuan cash from the ring using the cover of a big backpack, and cleverly packed it in a small cloth bag.
