"Isn't that right, truly black-hearted people!" Aunt Tian was furious when she heard Lin Feng recount the events. If Lin Feng hadn't held her back, she would have exploded. "When Lin Feng first married Fu Zhiqing, Lin Youwei demanded a thousand yuan before he would agree to the family division. He claimed the thousand yuan was for all the expenses of raising Lin Feng. Only after Lin Youwei took the money did he sign the separation agreement, saying their families were henceforth severed!"
"Heavens, isn't that robbing him blind!" Aunt Ma was shocked to learn there was so much to this.
Fu Wenwen was hearing this for the first time, her eyes wide as she listened intently.
"I raised him to be this big, what's a thousand yuan! Isn't it deserved?" Lin's father, scrutinized by Aunt Ma and Aunt Tian, retorted in anger.
"You haven't earned a thousand yuan in thirty years! And you have the nerve to say it's deserved? Lin Feng has been earning his own work points since he was little to support himself. What did you ever raise him for!" Aunt Tian shot Lin's father a disdainful glance.
"It's none of your business how I raised him, but I did raise him!" Lin's father said coldly.
"You demanded such a large sum, a thousand yuan. Lin Feng borrowed money from people all over the village to scrape together a thousand yuan for you. You signed the severance agreement and divided the family. What kind of support fee are you demanding now?" Aunt Tian scoffed.
"That was for the family division. He still has to support me in my old age!" Lin's father declared loudly.
"Uncle Lin, just raising your voice doesn't make you right!" Fu Wenwen, seeing him nervously raise his tone, reminded him. "Since the family has been divided, you are two separate households. You are indeed not entitled to any support fees! Are you trying to take advantage of Lin Feng's absence to bully me because I'm naive? I wouldn't have known about this if Aunt Tian hadn't spoken up."
"The severance agreement is also with the village head. Don't pretend you don't know. If you dare to come here and bully Fu Zhiqing again, you can go to the village head and sort it out properly!" Aunt Tian said coldly.
"Hmph!" Lin's father, seeing Aunt Tian protect Fu Wenwen at every turn, knew he wouldn't get any money from Fu Wenwen. He shot Fu Wenwen and Aunt Tian a vicious glare and turned to leave.
After Lin's father left, Fu Wenwen thanked Aunt Tian gratefully. "Aunt Tian, I'm so indebted to you. Otherwise, I would never have known that Lin Feng actually borrowed a thousand yuan to divide the family."
"Alas, Lin Feng is such an unfortunate child. He came to our house for help back then, and we helped as much as we could. He has already sent back the money he owed us this month," Aunt Tian sighed, patting Fu Wenwen's hand.
"Although your marriage to Lin Feng was unexpected, Lin Feng is truly a good person. You will definitely not suffer if you are with him," Aunt Tian advised Fu Wenwen.
"I know," Fu Wenwen added points to Lin Feng in her heart. He had spent a thousand yuan to divide the family. Although she didn't know who he had divided the family for, she couldn't deny that Lin Feng had definitely considered her.
Otherwise, with Lin Yu and Lin Xing like that, she would have gone mad, let alone the confused Lin mother and the greedy Lin father.
"Old Tian's family, did Lin Feng really spend a thousand yuan to divide the family?" Aunt Ma walked over to Aunt Tian, her face full of shock.
"Indeed! He even borrowed ten yuan from us! I don't know where else he borrowed money from, but he must be drowning in debt!" Aunt Tian glanced at Aunt Ma and confirmed. "The village head also knows about this. He acted as a guarantor for Lin Feng and even lent Lin Feng two hundred yuan! That's how Lin Youwei signed the severance agreement, and Lin Feng is now severed from the Lin family."
