Although she didn't want to admit it, she was called into the office by Qian Heng to teach her. Over the past few days, Cheng Yao felt that her whole body was relaxed, and even the coriander-flavored chocolate showed a little aftertaste.
Is this the fabled physique of Shaking M? ? ? Knowing that it is highly toxic, prefer to go to the source of the poison? ? ? Is it still addictive to knock poison? Can't it? Cheng Yao felt that she must have thought too much...
"My mother, have you watched the news?" Just as Cheng Yao's thoughts were flying around, Tan Ying held her mobile phone in shock, "Since the prohibition of alcohol has forced a lot of alcohol to be taken off the shelves in India, many people have actually Use the method of drinking cobra venom instead. Drink it once for the first month. In addition to drinking, it can also be used for bibimbap! Drinking poison can be addictive!"
"..."
But in any case, Chen Qingmei was very satisfied with the result of the first instance in the case of Dongshan's inheritance dispute. To Chengyao's expectation, Jiang Wenxiu and Dong Min did not choose to appeal any more. They accepted the result of the first instance. The judgment of the first instance came into effect.
Cheng Yao originally thought that she would have to face the wrangling of the second instance, but the case came to an end so easily. Apart from a sigh of relief, she was also a little surprised.
However, standing in the position of Jiang Wenxiu and Dong Min think about it, this is not a relief for them. The parent-child relationship is already an ironclad fact, and wrangling over the amount of inheritance is a kind of exhaustion of time and energy for everyone.
Instead of wasting time on this kind of thing, it is better to let go of the past and welcome the new life.
Dong Shan is dead, love and marriage are gone, but his daughter is still there, closer to him than ever, the original arrogant character gradually receded after this incident, began to mature, and began to learn to grow.
There are losses and gains.
He saw some people and things clearly, and became more brave and determined.
Cheng Yao remembered Jiang Wenxiu's appearance at the end of the final trial, and her straight back lingered in her impression.
If it is her, no matter what kind of life it is, you can live a wonderful life.
Whether a person is happy or not is not determined by money, nor is it dependent on others to get it, but by oneself.
"People are responsible for their own decisions."
For some reason, Cheng Yao kept playing back the last words Jiang Wenxiu said in her mind.
What does she want to express?
Are you responsible for the decision that you chose Dong Shan but was derailed? Or was he responsible for the result that he trusted Dong Shan's father and let Chen Qingmei take advantage of the loopholes and accepted the verdict?
Cheng Yao didn't know. But she always felt that not only Jiang Wenxiu was responsible for her own decisions, but Chen Qingmei was also responsible for everything she had done. Every behavior of everyone will have corresponding consequences.
Of course, apart from thinking, Cheng Yao continues to uphold her own good habits. Every time she finishes a case, she will make a summary analysis of the case and make a review of her performance.
At the beginning, this case was just a case in which Dong Shan sought a divorce at any price. Cheng Yao was even a little frustrated and disappointed with such a simple case at first, with a somewhat impetuous mentality, but a simple case may eventually become complicated. Family cases are complicated in details and even changeable. At any time, no case can be underestimated.
At the same time, the most important thing in family cases is communication. Lawyers not only need to exercise their professional legal skills, but also need to have strong communication skills to be able to communicate well with their clients and the other parties.
In any case, because of Qian Heng's words, Cheng Yao is no longer confused, and she is full of energy again.
The lawyer profession is not as noble as imagined, but it is also not as unbearable as imagined.
Law and ethics, fairness and justice, procedures and entities, how to balance these relationships in one's own profession may be the meaning of being a lawyer.
Lawyers are a career that feeds the family, but is it not an art and game to achieve the ultimate in lawyer work?
Just halfway through his own summary analysis, Bao Rui suddenly spoke up.
"Chen Qingmei was born."
Cheng Yao was very surprised: "This is more than a month away from the due date, why is it already born?"
"She was walking on the road that day. It had just rained and the road was slippery. She didn't care and fell. Fortunately, she was lucky. There was no one passing by on that road. An enthusiastic truck driver happened to pass by. She rushed to the hospital."
Bao Rui's face was mysterious: "But what I want to say is not this, the most unexpected thing, do you know, Chen Qingmei's son, there is a problem."
"what?"
"She probably won the lawsuit and was in a good mood. She didn't control her diet. Didn't you see that she was a lap older than before? It is said that she has gained more than ten kilograms of weight recently, and the baby is bigger than expected. However, she insisted on having a normal delivery in order not to leave a scar on her belly. As a result, the pregnancy check-up predicted that it was no problem at the beginning. Unfortunately, she didn't know what happened when she was born. In the middle of her birth, she was unable to give birth to a cesarean section. After a long delay, the child was hypoxic and choked on amniotic fluid."
"Was the child alive when it was born?"
Whether the child is alive at the moment of birth is of vital importance to inheritance.
If it was a stillbirth at birth, it means that the child does not exist and the heir does not exist. The preserved estate will be returned to the rest of Dong Shan's estate and divided equally among the other three legal heirs: Jiang as the spouse. Wenxiu, Dong Min as a child, Dong Shan's father as a parent.
If the child is alive at the moment of birth and has survived, the inheritance share will naturally belong to him and be managed by his guardian Chen Qingmei. However, this part of the property shall not be arbitrarily disposed of except to protect the rights of children.
And if the child was alive at the moment of birth, but cried a few times, and failed to survive due to various problems, then Dong Shan’s inheritance will still be inherited by him, but after his inheritance, because of death, he immediately triggers a new inheritance. After the child's death, this part of Dong Shan's inheritance will automatically become the child's inheritance and will be inherited by his legal heir, which is his biological mother, Chen Qingmei.
"Alive." Bao Rui added, "I'm still alive now, alive well."
While Cheng Yao breathed a sigh of relief, she also sighed unknownly.
But her sigh was not over yet, Bao Rui spoke again.
"But this child is not normal and can't milk on her own. He was diagnosed with cerebral palsy just now." Bao Rui used the statement, "It should be because of the lack of oxygen for too long during dystocia."
Cheng Yao opened her mouth and suddenly didn't know what to say.
"But this is not the most reversal. The climax is that when he heard that Mr. Dong had given birth to a grandson with cerebral palsy, he almost fainted." Bao Rui shook his head. "I heard that the man asked someone to go to the obstetrics and gynecology hospital. , I don’t recognize this grandson..."
As a result, before Bao Rui's gossip was finished, Cheng Yao received a call from Mr. Dong.
"Lawyer Xiaocheng?" The old man's voice trembled, "I want to see you..."
Because of the old man’s health, Cheng Yao and him had an appointment in a coffee shop not far from his nursing hospital. The nurse pushed a wheelchair. Father Dong was sitting in the wheelchair with a gray face. He knew that he would have one. The ecstatic state of grandson.
"Lawyer Xiaocheng, I regret it. We won't count this case anymore." Father Dong said anxiously, "You help me withdraw the paternity test that I have done. I will not do it. I don't admit it. For this grandson, I just need our Minmin, and all of our property will be given to Minmin."
"Mr. Dong, the result of this judgment has already taken effect." Cheng Yao tried to explain in simple and understandable language, "What's more, even if this judgment has not yet taken effect, you agreed to perform a paternity test and have already cooperated with the extraction. The blood sample has confirmed that the child in Chen Qingmei’s stomach is related to you and is the biological son of your son Dong Shan. This is an indisputable fact."
"I...I don't know, I don't know how the child born has a problem, I must have known, I would never do that kind of identification!" Old man Dong almost got out of control, "Now Minmin doesn't come to see me. Moon Soo doesn’t come to see me anymore. They only send me money every month. When I call them, they ignore me. At first they don’t answer the phone. I heard that Moon Soo will take Minmin to study abroad for a while. , Then...what can I do? Foreign countries are so far away, will I not see Minmin anymore?"
The old man babbled with a look of despair: "But what's the use of having money? I don't need money. I just want a family and a beautiful child. I thought I would take this child. , That woman doesn’t need to enter the house. I will take care of the child’s inheritance, and the woman can’t get a cent. So there’s no shortage of money in the family, and multiple children are just a pair of chopsticks. I think Moon Soo and Min Min will always accept..."
Cheng Yao was a little bit dumbfounded: "Mr., the child’s biological mother is alive, and she is the legal guardian. You want to take this child over to be raised by you, and the inheritance plan is impossible to implement from the beginning... …"
...
Until Cheng Yao left in the end, Father Dong could not accept or understand why the relationship between his granddaughter and daughter-in-law for so many decades was gone. They just made a mistake by accident, and they just did it, too. Absolutely. Even if they get less inheritance because of their actions, can family affection be measured by money?
But Father Dong might never understand that when he turned the balance to Chen Qingmei because of the of the fetus, he personally cut off this relationship and trust, and he personally pushed away his granddaughter and daughter-in-law. Jiang Wenxiu and Dong Min were not disappointed because of money...
Maybe everything, in the dark, has a certainty.
A few days later, Cheng Yao heard Bao Rui talk about the latest development of the incident. Elder Dong asked someone to go to Chen Qingmei's place to make trouble a few times. Chen Qingmei did not recover well after giving birth. Coming with a high fever.
Elder Dong also had other distant relatives who gave him ideas. Right now Dong Min has decided to change his mother's surname. Although this child has cerebral palsy, it can be regarded as the last Dong family's bloodline. Elder Dong probably was afraid that Chen Qingmei would secretly kill her child for the inheritance. Under the influence of these distant relatives, he sent a bunch of relatives like three aunts and six wives to keep an eye on Chen Qingmei, and those distant relatives took the money and naturally did their best.
As a result, Chen Qingmei not only has to worry about the newborn baby with cerebral palsy every day, but also has to deal with a bunch of bad-hearted distant relatives.
"Of course, these relatives will not let Chen Qingmei have the opportunity to let the children'accidentally' cause some'accidents'. After all, the children are gone, and where they are going to find an excuse to ask Elder Dong for money. Now they are justified. Mr. Dong takes care of his grandson and takes a lot of money."
A group of people with their own ghosts, they even reached a balance with each other in this way.
For Chen Qingmei, letting her children inherit the inheritance smoothly, she has achieved her goal. However, such a life, I don't know if it is fortunate or unfortunate. The future of a baby with cerebral palsy is not so easy, even if she has money. As a guardian, she is probably going to make such a legacy for her life.
And Xie Ming, whether Xie Ming can take on the future of this cerebral palsy baby together is a question mark. If it is a healthy baby, he may be able to persist... But a baby with cerebral palsy, even his biological father, may choose to give up. There are so many things in life that can cool love...
Everyone is responsible for their actions.
What Jiang Wenxiu said was right.
Life is not a sprint, but a long-distance running. People who are proud to lead at the beginning may not be able to travel smoothly.
No matter how sad, the Dongshan inheritance case was completely closed, and Cheng Yao received a lot of money.
That night, in her room, Cheng Yao couldn't hold back, and called her parents to announce the good news.
As a result, the old married couple didn't care about Cheng Yao's work at all, they only cared about Cheng Yao's private life.
"I heard your mother say you have a boyfriend recently?"
"amount……"
"Little money, right?" Dad Cheng had a headache, "but I heard that this little money is not only in a bad family situation, but he is not very motivated, except for a face to see..."
Cheng Yao was about to push the boat along the water and said that she had broken up, but she heard her father directly change the subject: "By the way, your mother and I will come to City A next Sunday to attend the reunion of former high school classmates, and take a look. You, what do you want us to bring?"
"Yes!" Cheng Yao immediately forgot about Qian Heng, "I want to eat the beef chili sauce made by my mother, and braised pig's trotters! Sauce duck! Spicy rabbit legs! ... and charcoal grilled lamb chops!"
Dad Cheng scolded Cheng Yao a few words with a smile, saying that he did his best. When he hung up the phone, he probably thought of Qian Heng, but he didn’t get up quickly: "You said, how is this person so different from other people, you know Dad? There used to be a classmate whose surname was Qian, right?"
Here comes again...
Upon hearing this classmate with the surname Qian, Cheng Yao knew it was going to be bad.
Since childhood, Cheng Yao has not known how many times Cheng Yao heard Cheng Yao's father scold "the surname Qian". Probably because he hated the other person too much, in order to show his contempt and disdain, this classmate could not have a name in the mouth of Cheng's father, and always used "the surname Qian" instead.
Sure enough, Dad Cheng said angrily: "This surname is Qian. I used to be at the same table, a man, but he drew 38 lines all the time! He also signed a sentence with me, if I exceed a little bit, he will lose money; Although the grades are good, people are not on the road. One time, I served him with delicious food and drink for the final exam for a month, begging him to give me a peek at the end of the term, so I almost knelt down and called him his father. The result! White-eyed wolf, wiped his mouth, didn’t recognize anything, and didn’t even show me a multiple choice question! I failed your dad! I was 3 points short of it! I almost got a handicapped parking space when I went home to your grandpa. Up."
...
Dad Cheng babbled and cursed for a while before finally entering the section of concluding the statement: "As a result, this kind of wonderful work is very moisturizing. It is said that there are private jets! Fortunately, he will not go to this high school reunion! I really don’t want to see him!" He sighed sorrowfully, "Anyway, this society is unfair. To tell you, I was superstitious at first. I always thought that he could make a fortune like this because of his surname Qian. This surname is destined that he will never be short of money in his life, but now I don’t believe this."
Dad Cheng sighed again: "Let's take a look. The same surname is Qian. My tablemate is rich and poor, but I am poor. Do you think this is reasonable!"
"..."
Dad, actually the surname is Qian, they are indeed very rich...
Cheng Yao listened to Cheng Yao's father nagging for a while, how the world is going down, and the current ills have attacked the society for a while, and he completely forgot to talk about Qian Heng, and he finally hung up the phone with unsuccessful intentions.
It's also a coincidence that Qian Heng, who had stayed at the law firm and worked overtime, returned after the call did not last long.
Cheng Yao didn't delay for a minute, and hurried out of the room with a flat face, and took Qian Heng's bag like a snatch: "Hey, boss, I'll carry me!"
As soon as Qian Heng took off his coat, Cheng Yao quickly snatched it over: "I'll hang it for you, I'll hang it for you." While holding Qian Heng's coat, she praised, "Is the boss the boss? Others can't keep up with this style. Look, you wear this trench coat. This temperament, this style is so unique!"
Qian Heng glanced at Cheng Yao: "Unique? Cheng Yao, are you blind?" Qian Heng snorted, with undisguised dissatisfaction in his voice, "Now the streets are full of imitations of Burberry trench coats. Among ten men Nine dresses. I just took the elevator upstairs and hit my shirt with someone. I was still bald and had a bad color. Don't hang up this dress and throw it away for me."
"..."
This flattery was a bit embarrassing, and it was on the horse's feet...
But will this stump Cheng Yao?
impossible!
Cheng Yao said anxiously, "Boss, I don't think these clothes can be thrown away!"
Qian Heng frowned as expected, and looked at Cheng Yao with some trouble: "Why?"
"Although this dress is seriously hitting the shirt, it is precisely because of this that it shows your uniqueness! Let people know what it means to be imitated and never surpassed!"
"..."
Cheng Yao held Qian Heng's playful eyes and continued: "I'll blanch you later. You drink a cup of hot water to warm it up, and it’s cold outside..." She poured Qian Heng a cup of hot tea while talking. .
Qian Heng didn't answer. He glanced at Cheng Yao and his voice was calm: "Let's talk, I have something to ask."
Cheng Yao immediately waved her hand and denied: "No, no, I just thought, Dong Shan's case is also over, the boss is going to move away, I bathe the boss's advanced thinking baptism, the opportunity to accept the boss's professional elite guidance, more and more opportunities Less, I want to show something too!"
Qian Henghao spent his free time: "So what?"
Cheng Yao bit her scalp: "I'll just ask when you're leaving. I can help you pack it. I have lived for so long, and there must be a lot of things. I can help with storage and cleaning."
Qian Heng sneered, "Cheng Yao, dare you to drive me away."
"No, no, how dare I!" Cheng Yao rubbed her hands and explained: "No, my parents are coming next Sunday. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, I will tell them when I think about it. The two have broken up. In order to verify this, should I take advantage of the free time recently and I will help you move the house?"
In order to testify to what she said, Cheng Yao added: "To be honest, I still miss our shared life. The boss is really going to leave. I will...I will miss you! Even though I only share a rent together. For a few months, but for me, the boss is like my family’s kindness, and I feel very reluctant, but I can’t let the boss abandon the luxurious villa and stay with me because of my selfishness. I live in such a place without style!"
Qian Heng sat on the sofa with his hands folded on his legs, looking at Cheng Yao, noncommittal.
Cheng Yao swallowed, and then kept on saying: "But there is a good saying, tell me to go home and have a look. Boss, you are gone, I welcome you here anytime, and you can treat this as your second home. Up!"
Qian Heng smiled slightly: "In other words, in your own heart, you really want me to continue living?"
"Why not!" Cheng Yao subconsciously flattered, "It is my honor to live in the same room with the boss!"
"Then I will reluctantly continue to live."
Cheng Yao:? ? ?
Wait, why is this different from the said script? ? ? The boss is sick and can't live in the big villa, but can he continue to tolerate this mid-range (low-end) community? ? ? What happened to Qian Heng? I'm afraid it's not sick!
Qian Heng admired the complex expressions on Yao's face, and then slowly took out his mobile phone and held it in front of Cheng Yao: "It's just you who explain this rental information to me."
Cheng Yao's scalp was numb, and she felt bad...
Probably for the convenience of Cheng Yao, Qian Heng enlarged the font very "kindly"
At the moment, there was a line of big characters on his phone screen.
"A good house is for rent! The only condition: I can repair the water pipe myself! Not the best!"
"..."
Qian Heng pursed his lips and smiled: "I need to move down to show you the pictures of the room in this post to prove that you sent it?"
Cheng Yao quibbly said: "This room layout and the hardcover room may be decorated in the same style, boss, this is really not me!"
It's not that Cheng Yao brags. When she posted a post on the Internet forum in City A, she did a bit of work. The photos of the house she took were careful to avoid the recognizable parts. It has been three days since this post was posted. In response to many people who wanted to see the house, Cheng Yao was gearing up to wait for Qian Heng to move out. When new tenants come in, they can share the rent on the one hand and some housework on the other hand. It can't be more perfect.
Facing Cheng Yao's sophistry, Qian Heng didn't speak either. He just took a cell phone, found one of the photos of the listing, and zoomed in on a corner of the photo.
Cheng Yao squinted her eyes for a long time before finally discovering the problem.
The corner where Qian Heng zoomed in was a dining table leg with almost negligible small characters engraved on it
"Dora I love you"
Cheng Yao calmly looked on the legs of the table, and she saw the same words in the same position...
At this moment, there was only one voice in Cheng Yao's heart-Fuck Dora!
Quality too! How can you write letters on the table legs casually! I wish you all love! Die fast!
However, this battlefield without gunpowder smoke, this iron proof is like a mountain of fighting, Cheng Yao has only one thought at the moment-I am defeated...
Cheng Yao's face was ashamed: "Boss, listen to me. I'm just a poor little lawyer. You moved away. I really can't afford the rent. I don't want to find someone to sublet early..."
Qian Heng was in a good mood today. He didn't even delve into Cheng Yao's rent request. He said calmly: "Don't worry, I will pay the rent. There are some things that don't need to be packed."
"Hey?"
"My room is just as it is." Qian Heng smiled, "This house is really close to Junheng. One day I have to work overtime in the office too late, and if I need to get up early the next day, I live here. It's also very convenient. Besides, don't you let me go home often?"
"..."
That's really just a polite remark! ! ! And the boss who comes back to live from time to time sounds more scary than the boss who lives in. This is even more terrifying to the class teacher who makes surprise checks from time to time than the class teacher who checks regularly every day! ! !
