The number one scholar is a piece of shit that everyone wants
Chapter 13 IOU Settlement
"Fifty taels!" Ye Laosan said gloomily, holding his pipe.
Ye Wencai was really afraid that his father's words would be misunderstood and that fifty taels would buy out their family ties, so he added, "Xing'er, don't get me wrong. Dad meant fifty taels every ten years."
In the crowd, someone who was dissatisfied with the Ye family sneered and said, "I have never seen such a shameless person. He asked for fifty taels right away, and it's for ten years. The relationship is so close that your whole family will have to lie on Xing Ge'er to suck his blood and eat his flesh!"
"Everyone in the surrounding villages knows about the troubles of Old Third Ye's family. Although fifty taels of silver is a lot, it can save a life. If the relationship had not been severed, maybe Brother Xing would have been with his mother who fled here..."
One of them was smart and quickly stopped the person who was talking, and whispered: "You have a stinky mouth, talking nonsense all day long, be careful that the old Ye family will also hate you!"
The two of them exchanged glances. Although they didn't say anything, their meaning was very clear.
Although there is no coincidence in the world, there are such coincidences in the world. Ye Fanxing then realized that her biological mother was not Xu Yingdi!
"Where was I talking about?"
Ye Fanxing paused deliberately, whetting everyone's appetite, and then continued: "Look at my memory, I remember now, I said a total of thirty taels for ten years."
"Xing'er, Dad wants fifty taels!" Ye Wencai emphasized on purpose.
"Well, I know, but you should listen to what I have to say first, right?"
"Father and mother, you have a son and a daughter. As the saying goes, raising a son is a way to prepare for old age, so the support of my brother Wencai takes up the majority of your money. I will calculate it based on the festival gifts that married daughters give to their parents when they return home. Of the thirty taels, I will take up 20%, or six taels."
"you……"
Xu Wencai suddenly became anxious, but Ye Fanxing didn't want to pay attention to him. He still looked as if it was a matter of course and continued to talk about his calculations.
"Also, before I got married, I was given more money to support myself. If you count it as one new piece of clothing a year, let's say it's 200 coins per piece, then after 15 years, it would be only three taels of silver."
"As for rice, for the sake of convenience, let's calculate it as half of Dad's ration. After fifteen years, it will be nine taels. Adding up the food and clothing, the total is twelve taels."
"The ten years of filial piety after the severance of the relationship, and the fifteen years of upbringing before the severance, add up to a total of eighteen taels of silver."
"Dad, Mom, do you think this is right?"
Ye Fanxing looked as if he had suffered a great loss, but his attitude seemed to be saying, if you dare to say no, the eighteen taels will be much less.
Ye Laosan's face immediately turned red when Xing Ge'er revealed the bill.
He wanted to say no, but he didn't dare. He was afraid that after he said it, he would be drowned in spit by everyone.
He glared at Ye Fanxing, as if to say, you are really great!
"Okay, but you have to pay the filial piety money for twenty years at a time. You have severed your relationship and exiled your clan. Who can I and your mother ask for the remaining ten years of filial piety money?"
As Ye Laosan spoke, he calculated in his mind. This way he would have twenty-four taels of silver, which was one tael less than the deposit that Wencai got back. Anyway, all of this was free, so he didn't lose out.
"Okay. But I'll give you ten years first. I'll keep the other ten years in the clan. When the time comes, please come to the clan and withdraw them directly."
"Xing'er, you..."
Ye Fanxing doesn’t care about the ten taels of silver. Whether the clan can give it to the Ye family in the end, it has nothing to do with him, right?
Maybe we’ll see a dog-eat-dog scene in the future!
So, he interrupted what Ye Lao San was about to say, bowed deeply to the head of the village and the elders of the clan, and said, "Please ask the head of the village and the uncles to write the document so that I can go to the town government office to file it tomorrow."
A moment later, at Ye Fanxing's request, he wrote four copies of a detailed letter of extermination from the clan and severance of ties under the watchful eyes of many people, and completed his final mission - signing and sealing it.
Ye Fanxing first looked to see if he had left anything behind. Seeing that he hadn't, he took out his own document and approached Song Haoming as if he was offering a treasure. "Here, keep it for me."
Song Haoming looked at Ye Fanxing, whose eyes and face seemed to be filled with the expression "Praise me, praise me!" and couldn't help but curl his lips.
Looking at the dazzling Ye Fanxing, he didn't even know how he should face him in the future.
"Xing'er, since we've signed the contract, give us the money quickly. We don't feel safe leaving it with you!"
What he meant was that he was worried that Xing Ge'er would run away with the money overnight!
Qian Lizheng finally saw Ye Laosan's true face, which was that he was an honest man but had no shame and was not even a human being!
Just when he was about to scold him, he saw Ye Fanxing quickly took out a stack of notes from his sleeve pocket and handed them to him.
Qian Lizheng looked at the note in front of him with a bewildered look. He had already signed the matters of expelling the clan and dividing the family. Did he have to sign and seal this note as well?
"Uncle Lizheng, what I have in my hand is the IOU that my parents and my brother Ye Wencai wrote to our family. Look, there are their signatures and fingerprints on it."
Ye Fanxing sighed in embarrassment, unfolded the slips of paper in his hand one by one, and handed them to Qian Lizheng to read: "I can't read a few words, can you take a look at these to see if they are IOUs?"
When Qian Lizheng heard this, he took the top one and looked at it carefully.
There were two big words "IOU" written on it in a strong and powerful handwriting. You could tell at a glance that it was written by the scholar Song Haoming.
Qian Lizheng took the IOUs with interest. It seemed that every step was planned by Xing Ge'er. It seemed that the Ye family would not be able to gain any advantage in today's incident.
He also glanced at Song Haoming deliberately. At first, he thought that he was the one who brought up this matter, but seeing the shocked look on his face, it was obvious that he didn't know about this matter.
Ye Fanxing let out a long breath. Seeing the head of the village take the IOU, it meant that there was more to come.
He knew how much the head of the village protected Song Haoming, but he really couldn't understand how the guy with expressionless face caught the head of the village. Could it be because of his good academic performance?
"It is indeed an IOU."
Qian Lizheng looked at Ye Fanxing calmly and felt that this Xing Ge'er was not the same as his impression of him, but he quite admired this kind of Xing Ge'er.
"Xing'er, tell me, what are you going to do with this IOU?"
Ye Fanxing was delighted and said quickly, "Uncle Lizheng, you know my family's situation. We are so poor that we can't even afford to pay for the funeral. I can't even afford to pay a penny to my relatives. Let's use this IOU to pay off the debt. Please help me calculate it. If it's not enough, I... I can only collect it slowly in the future."
Qian Lizheng looked at the stack of IOUs in his hand and twitched his lips unnaturally. He thought that the things on these notes were probably too much.
