Chapter 59: Half a Catty
After returning home yesterday, she went to see Yue Mingli first. Yue Mingli did know a few lawyers, but they all specialized in criminal cases.
He suggested that she ask Yue Minghui and Qin Liping, especially Qin Liping, because one of his classmates was a professor at the China University of Political Science and Law.
Shen Zhiqiu immediately called Yue Minghui and Qin Liping and made an appointment with Qin Liping to meet today.
"Brother-in-law."
When Shen Zhiqiu arrived at the gate of Guojing Business and Technology University, Qin Liping was already waiting there.
He led her to the alley next to him and said, "I have an appointment with my classmates. Let's have a meal together first. Zhiqiu, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask directly."
"Okay, thank you, brother-in-law."
"We're all family, you're welcome."
Qin Liping knew at first glance that he was an old acquaintance. After entering the door, he greeted the restaurant owner and they were taken to a private room.
After a while, another person came in and Qin Liping introduced them to each other.
"Zhiqiu, this is my classmate Cheng Gan, a professor who teaches Civil Law at the University of Political Science and Law, and also a famous lawyer."
“Cheng Gan, this is my wife’s brother’s lover, Shen Zhiqiu.”
Shen Zhiqiu took the initiative to step forward and shook hands with Cheng Gan: “Hello, Professor Cheng.”
"Hello, please sit down."
After ordering the dishes, while waiting for them to be served, Shen Zhiqiu took out a small paper bag from her bag, which was the one she took out from the gap between the floor cabinets in her room.
When he opened it, he found the land certificate that Ye Yunshuang used to buy the yard and the sales contract at that time.
This small paper bag was stuffed into her hand by her mother before she died when Shen Daqiang wasn't paying attention, and she was told to keep it safe.
After learning that the yard was actually bought by her mother, she dreamed of her mother that night and then remembered the small paper bag.
"Professor Cheng, please take a look at these two things first. Are they legally binding?" Shen Zhiqiu handed the land certificate and the sales contract to Cheng Gan.
"Of course."
Shen Zhiqiu talked about the specific situation of her family: "Professor Cheng, after my mother passed away, my father married another woman and had a daughter and a son with this woman."
"I want to ask if this yard has anything to do with this woman and her children?"
"After your father passes away, according to our country's Inheritance Law, his wife will be the first heir, followed by you children."
"But this yard was bought by my mother before she married my father. I have seen their marriage certificate, and this time is earlier than the time on their marriage certificate." Shen Zhiqiu pointed to the date written on the sales contract.
"But when your mother passes away, all her property will be inherited by your father. When your father passes away, it will be inherited by his current wife. When she passes away, you and your children will inherit it."
Shen Zhiqiu frowned, this matter was not as simple as she thought.
"Professor Cheng, under what circumstances can my father not inherit my mother's courtyard?"
Cheng Gan thought for a moment and said, "Then it can only be that your parents' marriage relationship is invalid, which means that they are not legally married, so your father has no right to inherit your mother's estate."
"You just said they have a marriage certificate, so they are a legal couple."
Shen Zhiqiu suddenly lost his appetite.
If that's the case, then the chances of her getting this yard are very slim.
No, she had to think about whether there was any other way. She must not let this courtyard fall into Shen Daqiang's hands.
It was obviously he who had wronged her mother, so why should he inherit her mother's estate?
"Old Cheng, if the other party commits bigamy, does he still have the right of inheritance?"
After Qin Liping asked Cheng Gan, he looked at Shen Zhiqiu: “Zhiqiu, Shen Liya is not your biological sister. I remember that your ages don’t seem to be very different?
In this case, your father must have committed bigamy. ”
Shen Zhiqiu’s eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly: “Yes, Shen Liya is only half a year younger than me.”
After she explained the general situation, Cheng Gan replied: "Based on your description, your father has indeed committed bigamy. You can file a complaint against your father and that woman. Bigamy is a crime and will be punished by prison."
"But bigamy, especially for something like your father's, is very troublesome to collect evidence. You have to find witnesses to prove that your father and that woman were married, and you also have to prove that your sister is indeed their biological child."
"After your father is convicted of bigamy, you can file a lawsuit to deprive him of his inheritance rights. Then you will be the only heir to your mother's yard."
Cheng Gan patted his chest and volunteered: "When you want to sue, come to me and I will help you."
"Thank you, Professor Cheng."
"Thank you, too, brother-in-law."
Shen Zhiqiu called the boss to order two more hard dishes, saying repeatedly, "This meal is on me."
"Don't worry, I definitely won't compete with you. Your sister hasn't given me this month's pocket money yet, so I can't pretend to be generous."
"Lao Qin, you really are!"
Cheng Gan nodded at Qin Liping and said with a wry smile: "We are both the same."
"Hahaha."
Qin Liping and Cheng Gan were chatting and reminiscing about the past. After Chen Zhiqiu had eaten his fill, he stood by and thought about what to do.
First, we have to find the place where Wang Fengqin and Shen Daqiang lived before she married them, and ask the neighbors around.
Next is Wang Fengqin’s family.
Of course, the most important thing is that Shen Daqiang, Wang Fengqin and Shen Liya all acknowledge Shen Liya's identity.
After dinner, the three of them went their separate ways, and Shen Zhiqiu met Yue Mingde halfway.
"Brother, what are you doing?" Shen Zhiqiu looked at the big bag on Yue Mingde's rear frame.
"I went to buy some goods and plan to set up a stall at the night market tonight."
Yue Mingde called Shen Zhiqiu: "Zhiqiu, let's go and sit at home."
On the way, Yue Mingde told him that he resigned, divorced Li Yan, worked as a maintenance worker at the University of Business and Technology, and moved here.
"Xiao Xin, Xiao Hui, your third aunt is here."
Hearing Yue Mingde's voice, Yue Youxin and Yue Youhui ran out of the house. One of them helped Yue Mingde move things down from the car, and the other came up and led Shen Zhiqiu into the house.
"Aunt San, how is Yaya?"
"Yaya is fine."
Shen Zhiqiu rubbed Yue Youhui's head and said, "Aunt San bought some stationery for you and Xiaoxin. You can go pick them up this weekend and visit Yaya by the way."
"Okay." Yue Youhui and Yue Youxin looked at each other and nodded at the same time.
They have been missing Yaya so much for a long time. They say that the child changes every day. They don't know how much Yaya has grown or whether she has gained some weight.
"Zhiqiu, do you need anything?"
Yue Mingde opened the bag and took out a handful of hairpins and hair ties.
"I went to the night market for a few days and saw that many young girls like to come here to shop. I thought I'd buy some things that you girls like to use so that they can sell well."
Shen Zhiqiu picked out about thirty of them and said, "Brother, I want all of them. I'm going to give them to my colleagues in the art troupe. Please give me a price."
