Chapter 262 Child Support
Chapter 262 Child Support
Seeing that no one supported him, Uncle Zhou turned to Secretary Zheng for help.
Secretary Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "Uncle Zhou, please don't look at me. I don't support you selling the house either."
"But……"
If I don’t sell the house, I won’t have money. If I don’t have money, I can’t move to the city. If I can’t move to the city, how can my little Jiye receive a better education?
Uncle Zhou was in a dilemma.
Zheng Qian continued, "I know what you're thinking, Uncle Zhou. You didn't come to the city to enjoy yourself, but to let your children study, right?"
He could guess that even if Zhou Zihang was found, Zhou Zihang would not keep Xiao Jiye with him.
Zheng Qian had never met Zhou Zihang, but from what happened when he left, he knew that Zhou Zihang was a selfish villain.
The fact that such a person can afford to support Xiao Jiye is already the result of bargaining among all parties. It is absolutely impossible for him to be Xiao Jiye's father.
Uncle Zhou nodded and said, "Secretary, children need to study. Although I have not lived in the village all my life and am just a rough man, I also know that children need to study."
"Our little Jiye always ranks first in his grade in every exam. He has some talent for studying. As his parents, we can't let him down, right?"
"It would be fine if we didn't have this condition, but now this child's biological father is a university professor and can arrange for the best school for him. We have to let this child go."
"No matter how confused I am, I know that the schools in the city are better than those in the village."
As he spoke, his eyes were already red.
This kind heart moved everyone present.
Uncle Zhou has no money, but the Wei family has money, and so does the Youyou family.
It's not that Youyou hasn't thought about sponsoring Xiao Jiye, but was lectured by Fang Jing.
"Uncle Zhou has always been an upright man and down-to-earth in his work. There is no way he would accept such charity."
Fang Jing is very good at judging people, and Uncle Zhou is very principled. Otherwise, he could have asked Zhou Yanran for help.
But he didn't. He knew the boundaries between relatives. It's okay to help someone in need, but you can't cling to a tree like a vine.
Hearing this, Zheng Qian thought for a moment, then said, "I have a way to help you get the money to open the fruit shop you want."
"What can we do?!"
Uncle Zhou's eyes lit up. He knew that Secretary Zheng was a very honest and resourceful person. If he said there was a way, then there was a way.
Zheng Qian continued, "Let Zhou Zihang make up the child support he has paid for all these years in one lump sum."
Now that Zhou Anran is dead, Zhou Zihang is Zhou Jieye's only legal guardian. He should pay child support to Zhou Jieye every month. Over twelve years, it will be a huge amount.
"I've read the relevant laws. Child support is based on monthly income. Zhou Zihang is now a well-known professor, so he certainly wouldn't be short of this little money. Besides, this money is what you and my aunt deserve. He should give it to Xiao Jiye. Go talk to him. If that doesn't work, I'll contact a lawyer."
Zheng Qian is out all day taking orders and selling fruit. He has some connections and legal resources.
He just hoped that Zhou Zihang would know what was happening, otherwise he would have to go to court and it would be bad if it delayed the child's schooling.
Hearing this, Uncle Zhou nodded: "Okay, I'll talk to him again."
"When do you want to talk to him? I'll pick you up."
Youyou kindly said that although there were trucks coming here every day to transport fruits, they were not going to Z University in Y City. He couldn't bear to let two elderly people and a child travel so far.
"You have such a kind heart, kid, but we can't keep bothering you."
Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou are very grateful.
Zheng Qian also said: "I can just take my uncle and aunt there. I have a car too."
After hearing this, Youyou stopped worrying about it and said goodbye to the Zhou family and went back home.
The white BMW sped away, and Zheng Qian felt suddenly empty inside.
Soon, Uncle Zhou and Aunt Zhou brought little Jiye back to the city. This time, they were sent by Zheng Qian. To thank Wei Shuqing and her family, and Youyou, they also brought a lot of fruit.
After dropping off the fruit at Wei Shuqing's house, they came to Youyou's house.
Although he could guess that Youyou's family was rich, Zheng Qian was still shocked when he actually felt how wealthy they were.
After Fang Jing retired, Youyou's family moved out of the compound and moved into the Chinese-style villa under Wang Chenchen's name.
There are rockery, a fish pond, a pomegranate tree and a pavilion in the yard.
"Your house is so beautiful."
Zheng Qian praised seriously.
Youyou just laughed: "Oh, my mom had nothing to do all day, so she just tinkered with the yard."
The two young men chatted for a few more sentences, and before leaving, Youyou asked Zheng Qian for his contact information for some unknown reason.
"We've had dinner together, so we're friends anyway," she explained. "By the way, can I show you my kitten?"
Youyou’s kitten is called Keke, a beautiful Shandong lion cat that she rescued from a university campus.
Zheng Qian was about to agree when the two elders of the Zhou family had finished their socializing with Fang Jingwang Chenchen and wanted to leave.
"Only next time."
Zheng Qian's tone was not without regret.
Youyou also felt a little regretful: "Okay, next time then."
After all, he is someone's father, so Zhou Zihang bought some clothes, toys and school supplies for Zhou Jiye.
The once poor boy can now use his power to oppress others and try to buy back his son's heart with money.
"I don't know what you like, so I just bought some random things. After all, I'm your father, so can you please stop putting on such a cold face all the time?"
His tone was half doting, half joking.
Zhou Jiye forced a smile. He was born smart and knew that he couldn't just focus on his own emotions and ignore everything his grandparents had done for him.
"This time, we're here to ask for money. We want the money we deserve."
Xiao Jiye took the initiative to speak.
He knew that his grandfather had been strong all his life and had never bowed down to anyone.
He didn't want his grandfather to be humble to Zhou Zihang.
Zhou Zihang smiled. This kid was really tough. "The money you deserve, you mean child support? How much do you want?"
He took out a wallet. The brown pattern on it looked very classy. It was a Bulgari brand, a high-end foreign product.
Zhou Zihang has indeed lived a very good life in recent years, and it is no exaggeration to say that he is doing very well.
"If you want the child support I've paid you for the past twelve years, ask a lawyer to calculate it for you."
Zhou Jiye's face flushed and he spoke loudly, he was worried that Zhou Zihang would refuse.
Zhou Zihang just stared at him for a while, then nodded: "Don't worry, I understand what you mean. I'll give you 20,000."
