. Xiao Yingchun remained silent for a long moment, looking only at her uncle and aunt, then at her grandparents. Now no one dared to look at her.
She spoke again, choking up. "My parents were in a car accident, and my uncle was involved in the aftermath from beginning to end. The truck driver couldn't afford compensation and is now in jail."
"The court awarded 950,000 yuan, but I haven't received a cent. Uncle knows about this, right?"
Her uncle nodded. "I know."
In fact, not only did he know, but he had also used his connections to investigate the family's situation over the past year.
The family's truck was financed with a loan and was seized after the accident.
The family's house was also financed with a loan. His wife was ill, and his son didn't make much money, barely making enough to get by on two or three thousand yuan a month. How
could anyone expect compensation from a family like this?
According to the Civil Code, my grandparents were also first-in-line heirs and entitled to a share of the estate.
My uncle's and aunt's families naturally hoped that the compensation would be paid, so they could also collect money from my grandparents.
Knowing that Xiao Yingchun didn't get a penny of compensation, the uncle didn't mention the inheritance.
"In order to save my parents, the family savings were used up, and I borrowed money everywhere. Everyone knows that, right?"
This time, the aunt nodded: "Yes. We all know."
Xiao Yingchun spread his hands: "So what inheritance is there to divide? Ashes?"
But Ge Chunyu said with his neck held high: "Don't you still have that building? That doesn't count as an inheritance?"
Xiao Yingchun was so angry that he laughed: "Thanks to my aunt, when my grandparents were relocated and given houses, my uncle got three, my aunt got two, and my grandparents kept one for themselves."
"When it was my mother's turn, they only gave her this piece of land."
"My father borrowed money to build the house. It's only more than 100 square meters in total. It's in an urban village on the edge of the city. It's more than 20 years old now. Can it be sold for 300,000?"
"Even if the court rules that the five of us, my grandparents, my grandparents, and my grandparents, are the first-line heirs, and if we divide it among the five of us, my grandparents will only get 120,000 at most, right?"
"If grandpa and grandma divide the land between your family, your uncle's family, and my family, you can get more than 120,000 yuan by yourself?"
Now the uncle and aunt's faces looked even uglier: in the end, it was their family that suffered the loss?
Xiao Yingchun sneered: "Also, you may not know that when the house was registered, I was already one year old. My father said that the house should be directly registered in my name to avoid paying taxes in the future."
"So, this house is in my name, it is not considered an inheritance, and it has nothing to do with your aunt."
Ge Chunyu was not convinced: "The land was given to you by your grandparents! How can it have nothing to do with you?"
Xiao Yingchun looked at his grandparents: "Speaking of inheritance, your grandparents have the most say. How did you decide on this matter?"
His grandparents looked at each other awkwardly, and his grandfather said: "If your parents' things are left to you, then they are left to you. We don't want them."
"As for the payment for the goods, you should discuss it with your aunt. It's not easy for your aunt..."
Even at this point, his grandfather was still speaking for his aunt.
Xiao Yingchun felt even colder: it turns out that favoritism is never justifiable.
She looked at Ge Chunyu: "Grandpa and grandma both said no, yet you think you deserve over 120,000? How can that be justified?"
Ge Chunyu realized by then that she couldn't make sense, so she simply played dirty: "Then I just don't have the money! If they sue me, the worst that can happen is that I go to jail!"
"Mom! If you really go to jail, I'll kill anyone!" Cousin Xie Yulin glared at Xiao Yingchun with a ferocious expression, as if to say, "If you don't help me, I'll kill you."
Ge Chunyu offered a hypocritical word of advice, but her eyes were full of calculation: "Why are you so anxious? Your sister invited us to dinner today, so she must want to discuss and resolve this matter."
Xiao Yingchun looked at her uncle and aunt, who were pretending to be dead, and then at her grandparents, who had been refusing to speak up for her, before she slowly spoke.
"Grandpa and grandma, for so many years, my mother and I have felt wronged. You favored my aunt and uncle, and when you divided up the houses, we didn't get any, and I didn't say anything."
"My parents passed away, and my aunt wanted to use my supermarket for free to run her business, and I didn't say anything."
"My aunt sold an extra 20,000 yuan worth of goods from the supermarket and didn't pay me, and I didn't say anything either."
"But my aunt wants me to pay another 120,000 yuan, but you said nothing and asked me to discuss it with my aunt. I don't want to."
"If my aunt insists on this, then we'll see you in court. Whatever happens, it's up to me."
"At worst, I won't open this supermarket. I'll leave this house empty and go out to work."
"Anyway, I'm a girl. I can feed the whole family by myself, and I don't need to spend money to find a wife."
After Xiao Yingchun finished speaking, she looked at her cousin Xie Yulin: "As for what you said about murder and arson, I don't care even more. Anyway, I have no ties and no one loves me. It's nice to have someone to bury with me when I die."
Xiao Yingchun acted like a bachelor, which stunned everyone.
Ge Chunyu gritted her teeth: "Yingchun, how about this? I really can't pay back the 120,000 yuan for the goods. I just bought a house for your cousin. I paid the down payment and I still have to pay the mortgage. I'll pay half of the money and you pay half?"
It turned out that the money taken from her was used to buy a house for her useless cousin.
Xiao Yingchun looked at Ge Chunyu, then at her uncle and aunt, and her grandparents.
They all looked at her with hope, clearly hoping she'd agree.
At this point, Xiao Yingchun had a clue. After a moment's thought, she pulled out an agreement from her bag.
"I'm feeling cold, and no one cares about me anyway. Here's an agreement. As long as my grandparents, my uncle and aunt, and my aunt and uncle sign, I'll cover half the cost."
Ge Chunyu, hearing this promise, was the first to grab the agreement.
After reading it, she looked at Xiao Yingchun in disbelief. "If you help me pay back this 60,000 yuan, your grandparents' support, medical care, and funeral expenses will have nothing to do with you
from now on?" "This 60,000 yuan is for your grandparents' support, medical care, and funeral expenses?"
"From now on, there will be no financial inheritance, support, or distribution between you and us. Even if the compensation is recovered, it will have nothing to do with us..."
"You and our family will relinquish our inheritance rights..."
"Are you completely severing ties with us?"
Xiao Yingchun twitched his lips with a forced smile. "Do I still have a share of my grandparents' house? Or if anything happens to my uncle and aunt, will they still give me a share of the family inheritance?"
"Or, can my uncle and aunt help me recover the money owed to us by the truck driver?"
The elders froze. How could that be possible?
If it could be recovered, my uncle would have found a way long ago.
The truth is, the man is in prison, his family is so poor that there's no property to be executed. It's highly likely that the money won't be recovered.
The money and property of our family are meant for our children. Who would be willing to give it to Xiao Yingchun, our niece? !
My aunt's family, who originally didn't want to sign the contract, also fell silent.
My grandparents were even more silent.
Xiao Yingchun looked at their reactions and sneered in his heart: Is it okay to make a reverse threat?
Ge Chunyu really couldn't stand it. She read it carefully twice more and handed the agreement to her uncle and aunt.
The two intellectuals looked at each other and read it carefully.
The waiter also brought the dishes to the table at this time.
Xiao Yingchun was determined in his heart and relaxed: "Come on, come on, we can't finish reading it in a while. If we wait any longer, the food will get cold. Let's eat while we read it."
The older ones were not happy and couldn't eat the dishes. The four young ones didn't care about that and picked up their chopsticks to start eating.
