Chapter 1224: who is going to pay



Old Master Zo wished he could beat this unfilial son to death but he did not dare to say anything. He seemed to have realized the crux of the situation, Zi Mu had signed a contract but the farm had been burned which meant that the contract which was in effect was now pressing heavily on the heads of his son and his son-in-law!

He turned to look at Yu Dong and pretended as if he did not understand what was going on. He said, "Miss Yu, I really don't understand why are you here, if they were the ones who signed the contract and did not hand you the fruits, then you should be looking for them and not us."

In short, he was telling Yu Dong that he was not going to pay compensation or anything of the sort to her for Zi Mu and Ye Zexian.

Yu Dong had expected this which was why she was not surprised. She only chuckled lightly and then said to Old Master Zi, " I do not care who signed the contract or who did not. I only know that your family has not separated which means that they are still members of this family.

They had caused me a loss by taking fifty taels and not bringing me any fruits, forget about three thousand catties of each fruit, they did not even bring one back."

"So who should I look for when they spent all their money? They neither have money nor fruits. If I don't look for their family who should I look for?"

She kicked off from the table against which she was leaning and then said to Old Master Zi, "I am not a charity organisation, either I get the products for what I paid for or I need to get the money back." Her smile turned into a ruthless sneer as she added, "In your case, I cannot get anything. So you better tell me how you are going to pay for this mess?

Money or fruits, either of the two things you better hand me."

Zi Mu had told her that he did not tell his family about the warehouse where he kept the fruits, this was to make sure that his family would have a decent earning as well. He did not want to starve to death which was why he kept a second warehouse where he kept most of his fruits, it was a good thing that he had done it or else he would have really suffered a loss.

As for the contract, Yu Dong had used a fake one to scare off the Zi family and sure enough when they heard Yu Dong's demands everyone in the Zi family was scared off.

Old Master Zi turned to look at his son and asked, "Where did you spend the fifty taels? How come you spent all of it?"

"We used it on Zan Zan, what were we supposed to do? Watch her die?" Ye Zexian said coldly as he watched his father-in-law question them as if they were in the wrong. "You refused to pay and the burns that Zan Zan received are severe. There are a lot of expensive medicines that we need to soothe her burns, if not then she would have died because of those burns.

Do you want us to watch our daughter die in front of our eyes?"

Ye Zexian knew that his father-in-law was going to react like this the second he heard Yu Dong's plans. Sure enough, his father-in-law did not disappoint him or his husband.

"She is already in this situation why did you have to waste money on her?" Old Master Zi felt like he was going crazy. These two spendthrifts, they actually threw fifty taels in the ditch. So what if Zi Zan died?

She was a jinx like her father, if she had gone there would have been no damage done to their family but now that he had lost those fifty taels that should have belonged to his grandson, he was really furious.

If not for the fact that he could not kill his son, he would have done it in a heartbeat!

"How could you say that? She is your granddaughter!" Zi Mu could not bear his father saying such heartless things especially not when it concerned his daughter. He looked at his father coldly and said, "Zan Zan went to work in that restaurant because of you! You were the one who said that she needed to earn money now that she was old enough.

She is four years younger than Zi Bao, yet she was forced to work by you. Now that something happened to her, how can you push her away like this?"

"What do you mean by forced by me? Did I sell her or did I threaten her? She went on her own!" Old Master Zi refused to admit but Ye Zexian did not let him off, he immediately followed by saying,

"Yes, you did not force or threaten her. But you did scold her every time she ate a meal or asked for money for something. It was as if you were the one paying, the rice and grains in this house are bought by her father, why can't she eat? If anyone deserves to be good for nothing and eat like a pig, it is your precious eldest son and his family!

Even you and the entire family are the same, my husband was fed rice gruel by you all so why should he be filial to you by feeding you fine rice?"

This was the first time Ye Zexian had fought back with his father-in-law, he usually stayed quiet because he was a 'bought' son-in-law but now that his daughter had been targeted, he was not willing to back down.

"You…" Old Master Zi was really angered, he rushed forward to slap Ye Zexian but before he could touch him, a leg shot out and kicked him in the stomach.
