Mind reading saves the whole family; I'm firmly in the role of a charlatan.

Chapter 391 The Bad Guys Get Old
"This...what is this?"

The two elders of the Cui family held the things that Du Lianshuang had thrown at them, their faces ashen, as if they were holding a death warrant.

"What is it?" Du Lianshuang sneered, "The paternity test between your son and your eldest grandson, and the court judgment that he committed bigamy, marriage fraud, and maliciously transferred marital property."

Old Master Cui's hand trembled, and he threw the documents on the ground: "Why are you giving us these things? We...we're illiterate, we can't understand them."

"It's okay if you don't understand, I can read it to you myself."

As Du Lianshuang spoke, she gave a wink to the person next to her. A bodyguard immediately stepped forward, picked up the document that had been thrown on the ground, patted it, and handed it back to Du Lianshuang.

“It says here that your son, Cui Jueyan, had a small family outside of our marriage, and used our marital property and my personal premarital property to support this small family. To compensate for my losses, we need to recover the money he spent on you and his other wife and children, totaling 57,896,700… I won’t mention the loose change after that. Let’s round it up to 58 million.”

Du Anrao and the others almost burst out laughing when they heard her words. It was the first time they had ever seen someone reduce a small amount and then increase it!

The two elders of the Cui family did not notice this; they were completely stunned by this enormous number, which they had never seen before in their lives.

Their son now owes Du Lianshuang 58 million yuan? How is that possible? How could he have spent so much money on them all these years?

Du Lianshuang saw the two people staring in disbelief, and her mockery intensified: "Originally, I thought that the guilty party should be held accountable, and since Cui Jueyan was the one who swindled me out of money, he should naturally be the one to repay it. There was no need to involve innocent people. Three or four years is nothing; I could wait that long. But now, since you've both come knocking on my door..."

As soon as Du Lianshuang finished speaking, Old Master Cui bristled like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

"No...this money has nothing to do with us. Don't come looking for us. We won't pay it back, and we don't have the money to pay it back."

"Yes, yes, we have no money. Whoever owes you this money can go find them. It has nothing to do with us."

"How can it be none of your business?" Du Anrao leaned closer to her aunt, smiling. "This Cui Jueyan is your own son. There's a saying, 'The son pays for the father's debts,' but that could also be reversed to 'The father pays for the son's debts.' However..."

"Just what?"

“In general, this situation often involves the elderly outliving their children, with the son passing away before his parents and having no wife or children. In such cases, the older generation has to inherit his estate, and the debts are also part of the estate.”

The elderly couple's faces turned deathly pale. After calming down and thinking carefully, they realized that back in the village, they had encountered unfilial children who had accumulated huge debts that their parents had to pay off.

What can be done in this situation? The child is my own flesh and blood; I can't let those debt collectors drive the child to his death.

Their son had always been a promising and sensible child, so the elderly couple never imagined that one day they would be burdened with huge debts because of their son.

"Of course, there are solutions."

Old Mrs. Cui had been completely swayed by the group's coordinated efforts and subconsciously asked, "What method?"

"Voluntarily relinquish the inheritance of this estate... oops, I mean this debt." "Then we'll voluntarily relinquish it..."

"Don't be in such a hurry. Voluntary abandonment means voluntarily giving up all the bad and all the good associated with this person. Simply put, when a person dies, he will leave behind savings and debts. The savings and debts must be inherited at the same time or abandoned at the same time. You can't choose one or the other."

Hearing this, Du Yuxi already knew her sister's plan and spoke up at the right time: "This debt belongs to your son, but because he is currently arrested and unable to repay it, it needs to be repaid by you two as parents. Similarly, the obligation to support you also belongs to your son, but because he is currently unable to support you, this responsibility falls on the two children."

If you want the two children to support you, then you'll have to take on this debt. And if you stop harassing the two children…

A bright light flashed in Old Lady Cui's eyes: "She's not going to ask us for this debt anymore?"

Du Anrao and the others exchanged glances and nodded.

Du Lianshuang hadn't originally planned to ask those two old guys for money. They were both in their seventies or eighties, and even if they worked themselves to death, they couldn't possibly pay her that much money back. If she really pushed them too far, they might just lie down on the ground and try to extort money from her instead.

She took this out to scare those two greedy old men, so they wouldn't dare to cause trouble for the children at school under the guise of their elders again. As for this debt, she would settle it with Cui Jueyan properly once he was released.

Anyway, she only said she wouldn't ask those two old men for it, but she didn't say she wouldn't ask Cui Jueyan for it.

The elderly couple were indeed intimidated, but if they could be so easily driven away, Du Lianshuang wouldn't have been fooled by them for so many years without realizing it, and wouldn't have needed Du Anrao, this "cheat code," to remind her to see their true colors.

Seeing that he was once again at a disadvantage, and that the two money trees he had set his sights on were about to be uprooted and completely cut off from them, Old Master Cui's face darkened slightly, and he secretly gave his wife a wink.

Seeing this, Old Lady Cui plopped down on the ground without saying a word and began to wail loudly: "Damn it all! This is going to drive my husband and me to our deaths! What misfortune has befallen our family to have such a daughter-in-law and to suffer such a fate? Son, if you weren't here, your father and I would have been driven to our deaths!"

It must be said that Old Mrs. Cui's acting skills are really good. She can cry on cue and she cries so pitifully. If someone who doesn't know the situation saw this scene, they would probably really think that these bright and beautiful young people are bullying these two poor old people.

Du Yunni and Du Xiuyuan were previously caught off guard and had no chance to defend themselves against this move by the old woman.

Seeing her use the same trick again, his face darkened slightly, and he subconsciously wanted to step forward and say something, but Du Yuxi stopped him first.

"Don't worry."

Before Du Yunni and her companion could ask any further questions, the reactions of the onlookers had already provided the answer.

"This old woman is definitely up to something. As soon as she can't win an argument, she starts resorting to shamelessness. Isn't that just a guilty conscience?"

"When they came to cause trouble before, I felt that there was something wrong with these two old guys. Sure enough, tsk tsk tsk... This world, it's not that old people have become bad, it's that bad people have grown old."

"I hate these old scoundrels the most. When you try to reason with them, they act like scoundrels. When you try to act like scoundrels, they just lie down on the spot. It's infuriating to watch."
