"Father-in-law, it's not that I don't want to give it, it's that I really don't have the money. Even if you kill me, I won't be able to make money again."

No matter what Zhong Meihui's parents said, Chu Shoucheng only insisted on one thing: he had no money.

Zhong Meihui's parents were furious, but they did not dare to ask for an annulment, otherwise, even the 10 yuan they received would have to be sent back.

"Even if you want money, you have to wait until the house in Guancheng is sold, otherwise I will not have the cash to give you, and there is a process for selling a house. Even if someone wants it today, it will take more than a month just to go through the process, plus It will take at least half a month to get the money during the Chinese New Year period.”

When Zhong Meihui saw her father's face turned purple with anxiety, she felt that the time was almost up. She proposed to wait until the house in Guancheng was sold before giving him the 6 yuan. Otherwise, she would really be left empty-handed. , can't get a penny out.

Zhong Meihui and Chu Shoucheng sang a double act in front of their father. The purpose was to convince the Zhong family's parents that they really had no money left. Otherwise, agreeing too happily would only make her parents think that money comes easily. , and will give her whatever she wants.

"What the child said makes sense. The house hasn't been sold yet. How can we get so much money? Why don't we let them write an IOU first and give it to them after they buy the house."

Zhong Meihui's mother saw that the stalemate continued without results, and immediately came out to smooth things over. She felt that as long as she had the IOU in hand, she would not be afraid that Zhong Meihui would not pay back the money. What's more, Chu Shoucheng was a teacher in the county after all. He could run away from the monks but not from the temple. .

Zhong Meihui's father nodded in agreement. Seeing that the matter was finally resolved, Chu Shoucheng picked up a pen and prepared to write an IOU, but was stopped by Zhong Meihui.

"Mom and Dad, aren't you doing this to embarrass me? As a family, we still have to write IOUs, are you afraid that I won't keep my words like you do!"

Zhong Meihui yelled at her parents twice, which made Zhong Meihui's father a little embarrassed, but he quickly regained his composure and emphasized plausibly that even the biological father and daughter must settle the score.

"You owe us money, so you have to write an IOU. This is a matter of course."

"Keeping promises is also a matter of course. Have you ever thought about me? Now that the wedding is approaching, you have added a betrothal gift to let my husband's family think of me in the future. Now that I have paid so much for my family, shouldn't you do the same? You have to explain to me, a hundred years from now, do I have to have a share of the family’s property?”

Zhong Meihui argued for herself. She hated those families that favored sons over daughters. When it came to fulfilling filial obligations, it was the daughter's responsibility, and when it came to property, she had to leave all her property to her sons.

Many netizens even said that parents must fulfill their support obligations to raise their children. As for their property, it is their business to whom they want to leave it to.

But those who say this must be those with vested interests in the family, because they cannot see the difficulties of these girls. When they get married, their husbands' families pay a large sum of money as gifts, and most of them have to pay off the debt after they get married and give birth to children. After that, I had to focus on taking care of my family, and there were not many opportunities to go out to work and make money.

With such an unequal distribution of benefits, the girl has no money at all. If she is asked to support her parents like the boys in the family, she will continue to ask for money from her husband's family.

Even if her husband's family can provide money, the harsh voices will continue, and in the end the girl will become the sinner of the entire husband's family.

When she was married to Han Xin in her last life, her parents kept asking her for money for various reasons, which made her always criticized by Han Xin's family. Everyone had a bad look when they saw her, and even treated her like a servant. People are shouting and drinking.

Zhong Meihui would never go back to those days of being sucked blood. Since her parents took the initiative to write an IOU, she might as well talk about the matter clearly and write down all her rights and obligations to avoid regrets from her parents later.

"How can the married daughter, the water thrown away, and the property of her mother's family be given to you? Everything in this family belongs to your brother, don't even think about it."

Zhong Meihui's father looked at her with a very incredible look. He felt that his daughter had been working outside for a long time and had become wild. She actually dared to covet her mother's family's property.

In their hometown, all property belongs to the son. This is an eternal truth. How can it set a precedent for Zhong Meihui.

He waved his hand to Zhong Meihui and asked Zhong Meihui to give up this ridiculous idea, otherwise people from all over the world would laugh at him.

"Then when you get old or sick in the future, do you need me to support you?" Zhong Meihui took the opportunity to ask, asking her parents to give a definite answer.

"As long as your brother is here, we don't need you. As the saying goes, raising children will provide for us in old age. Do we still expect you to provide for us until we die?"

Zhong Meihui’s parents take it for granted. They have their own plans in mind. If Zhong Meihui is asked to take care of her in old age at this time, she will definitely ask for her share of the family property in the future. It is better to put all the responsibility of family property and old-age care on her son. In the future, if something happens to her, she will ask Zhong Meihui for money. If she doesn’t believe her, she won’t give it.

"Okay, now that you two have decided, I won't take any money from my parents' family, but I want to explain that I have no obligation to provide for you in the future. My brother will be responsible for everything. Let's write it down clearly in black and white."

Zhong Meihui knew what her parents were really thinking and deliberately pretended to be angry and lost her temper in order to put the matter on paper.

"Okay, just write. I didn't expect you in the first place." Zhong Meihui's parents have no legal awareness, so they don't care what they sign. They just believe that Zhong Meihui is their child. No matter what they write, they will still be responsible for anything in the future. You can find her.

Zhong Meihui's goal was achieved. She asked Chu Shoucheng to write an IOU, and she wrote an agreement, which stated that when she got married, she gave her parents a total of 16 yuan together with the bride price without any dowry. A hundred years later, all the property of her parents would belong to her younger brother. So, she won't fight for a penny.

However, her younger brother will be responsible for the future life, old age, illness and death of her parents, and she has no obligation to support them.

In addition, there is a special note that if Zhong Meihui dies while her parents are still alive, then all the property in her name will be inherited by her husband and children, and the two elderly people will automatically give up the right to inherit the property in her name.

"Mei Hui, it's too unlucky to write this." When Chu Shoucheng saw the special note, his heart tightened. He would rather give up all his property than let anything happen to Zhong Meihui.

"There's nothing inappropriate. People die young every day. Since my parents want to leave everything to their son, I naturally want to leave my property to my husband and children."

Zhong Meihui still acted angry and asked her parents to sign the agreement, completely severing the financial ties between them.
