Chapter 169: What does your debt have to do with us!
Chapter 169: Chapter 169: What does your debt have to do with us!
Lu Youxi laughed and joked, "Don’t we have a big family? If I can’t pay it back, I’ll just ask you all for help. If you don’t have money, I’ll turn to grandma and grandpa, and Aunt, and we can surely gather some amount together. If worse comes to worst, we can even mortgage grandma and grandpa’s house to the bank. After all, if everyone pitches in, there’s definitely a way to repay the loan. If this house isn’t enough, Uncle’s house can be mortgaged too."
Upon hearing this, Ge Guifen was furious, "It’s your loan, your debt, why should my house be mortgaged!"
Holding the contract, Lu Youxi spread her hands and said, "Aren’t we all one family? When I had money, I used it to take care of grandma and grandpa, and to show respect to my uncle and aunt. Now that I’m out of money, shouldn’t you help me? A family must support each other. You always say we’re all one family. It’s wrong if I am not dutiful to you, but if you don’t help me when I’m in trouble and only want money without wanting to contribute, watching your own granddaughter being driven to death by creditors, you too would be dishonored!"
"Grandma and grandpa can’t read, Youzhen, you can read. Come and see my contract, prove that I am not lying." Lu Youxi handed the loan contract to Lu Youzhen, "Don’t damage it, okay? If it’s damaged, I’ll have to ask you all to mortgage the house. After all, our family is under one household registration book, and at that time, the bank will only recognize the house, not the person."
Lu Youzhen was originally planning something mischievous, but got so frightened upon hearing Lu Youxi that she began to tremble.
Nervously holding the contract handed over by Lu Youxi, she carefully read the black and white print.
The Lu Family’s elders and Ge Guifen all looked at Lu Youzhen.
Youzhen, is what Da Ya (eldest child) saying true?" Old Madam Lu anxiously asked.
Having understood the document, Lu Youzhen quickly returned the hot potato of a loan contract to Lu Youxi.
Then she nodded to the Lu Family’s elders and Ge Guifen, "Yes... it’s true. Lu Youxi owes 250,000!"
"250,000!" Old Madam Lu screamed. She had never saved that much money in her lifetime.
Together, her and Old Master Lu’s pension amounted to just over fifty thousand, not even sixty thousand.
And Lu Youxi dared to borrow 250,000!
Old Madam Lu had just recalled her own pension when she saw a glint in Lu Youxi’s eyes, like a hungry wolf with green glow, "Grandpa, grandma, don’t you still have your own saved pension money?"
"I remember when you used to live at my place, besides your pension, my family had to give you additional money for living expenses," Lu Youxi calculated using her fingers, "Let me think, over these years, you never spent your own pension money. No, there was the time Lu Youbang needed money because I had a car accident, and my family couldn’t provide the funds needed, so that was from you."
Lu Youxi continued calculating while rolling her eyes, "After deducting those expenses, you should still have about fifty to almost sixty thousand."
Old Madam Lu was greatly shocked, her face even showing a flustered expression.
How does this girl’s mind work, how can she calculate money so precisely?
Old Madam Lu had tried to prevent her sons and daughters-in-law from eyeing this small amount of their pension money and kept it very close to her chest, never revealing how much she had saved.
But now, Lu Youxi had figured it out.
Old Madam Lu hurriedly observed the reactions of Lu Zhenguo and the two daughters-in-law.
Lu Zhenguo was surprised; he didn’t expect the elders had saved so much over the years.
Liu Yushu was indignant; that money came from the sweat and blood they siphoned from them!
And looking at Ge Guifen, she seemed outright greedy.
Ge Guifen hadn’t expected the elders to have so much money.
She originally thought if the elders had around twenty to thirty thousand, that would be quite good.
But it was much more than she had estimated.
Ge Guifen was already scheming about how to target the elders’ pension money.
Old Madam Lu saw Ge Guifen’s expression and knew trouble was brewing; she quickly moved closer to Old Master Lu.
"That could pay off a lot for me later," Lu Youxi also saw Ge Guifen’s look.
She didn’t believe that Ge Guifen, knowing the elders had all this money, would let them live peacefully thereafter.
Lu Zhenjia and Ge Guifen, were the jackals they nourished, so let them be properly fed.
"Your debt has nothing to do with us!" Old Master Lu was also tense now.
Lu Youxi was still burdened with a student loan and had racked up more debt.
Old Master Lu now only wished to clarify his relationship with Lu Youxi.
Just in case Lu Youxi really couldn’t repay, and the bank came for them.
That was 250,000 after all!
For Old Master Lu, who had lived his entire life in Hexing Village, this was a monumental sum.
In fact, not just for Old Master Lu.
In these times, the house prices in the Imperial Capital were still around two to three thousand per square meter, not having skyrocketed to the tens or even hundreds of thousands of later years.
250,000 at that time, was not a small amount of money for the average person.
"Lu Zhenguo, we’ve already divided our family assets!" Old Master Lu quickly said, "You best make it clear to your daughter. Her debts are her own and have nothing to do with us. Don’t think about us helping her repay. Our family has nothing to do with yours anymore. The village chief and villagers all witnessed it."
"But how can that be?" now it was Lu Youxi who was relentless, "Just earlier when you wanted money from me, you didn’t say that. You said I was your granddaughter."
"When did we ever say that! Don’t spout nonsense!" Old Madam Lu saw where this was heading and hastily added, "I’m telling you now, don’t come to us in the future!"
Finishing her speech, Old Madam Lu tugged Old Master Lu’s clothes, "Let’s go quickly, let’s not get entangled with them."
"Go!" At Old Master Lu’s command, Old Madam Lu, Ge Guifen, and Lu Youzhen hurriedly left with him.
Lu Zhenguo scoffed continually.
Just earlier, they were all one family when asking for money.
Now that they saw Lu Youxi owed so much, they quickly disowned her.
Such shamelessness, coming from his own biological parents!
Lu Youxi grinned broadly, she had anticipated that after her return, the Lu Family’s elders would come asking for money.
Lu Youbang now despised her intensely, and had lost money again in the stock market.
Lu Youxi hadn’t paid much attention to Lu Youbang, but his reputation was poor, and many at school kept her informed.
Her classmates told her that Lu Youbang had secretly inquired about the stocks they bought with Lu Youxi, and followed them.
But because he was greedy and didn’t sell in time, unlike the rest who did, he suffered a loss.
Knowing this, Lu Youxi knew Lu Youbang would definitely bring up her profit-making stock trades to the Lu Family’s elders, aiming to get money from her through them.
Thus, Lu Youxi brought the loan contract.
People like the Lu Family’s elders, self-centered and greedy, if you have money you must give it to them, but don’t expect a dime from them if you are the one in need.
