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

Chapter 395 This is truly a loving mother
"You saw how wicked the Guo family was, which is why you just spoke up to warn her."

Du Anrao nodded: "If we don't stay away from this group of elders who are willing to hurt their own children again and again for their own selfish desires, and who wish they could kill them, it's hard to guarantee that they and their mother won't follow in their aunt's footsteps in the future."

The "following in Du Anrao's footsteps" refers to the ending of Du Lianshuang's family in the original script.

The Guo family is currently coexisting peacefully with Guo Meizhen and her daughter because they still have some value to them. But what if they lose their value in the future, or if their value can no longer satisfy their selfish desires?

Back then, they were willing to harm Guo Meizhen for their grandson who was still a child. Who can guarantee that in the near future, they won't drag this mother and son down as stepping stones for their precious son (grandson) and pave the way for that child?
The people in the car quickly understood Du Anrao's meaning, and for a moment they were all somewhat moved.

This little episode didn't last long among them. Because the evidence that Du Lianshuang had collected and submitted in the past few days was quite comprehensive and straightforward, even though Cui Jueyan's parents insisted that they were asking their own grandchildren for money, which was reasonable and legal, Du Lianshuang still used various pieces of evidence to prove that the two were trying to ask their former daughter-in-law for money by asking the children.

Furthermore, because the amount of money demanded by the individuals was quite large, and the two individuals impulsively threatened to cause trouble at the children's school and Du Lianshuang's company in front of so many people, they basically met all the elements of the crime of extortion.

After giving her statement at the police station and confirming with her lawyer, Du Lianshuang immediately returned to the Du family with the good news.

"Aren't they always the ones who use that scumbag's name to morally blackmail my child? I suppose they've missed their son quite a bit since we haven't seen him for a while. I've been in a good mood lately, so I'm taking pity on them and sending them all inside to reunite. A family should be together like this."

Du Anrao swallowed the strawberry in his mouth and gave his cousin a thumbs up.

Seeing this, Du Lianshuang immediately moved closer to Du Anrao, took her hand and said, "This time it's all thanks to you and Yuxi. These two little fools are still too green. They didn't inherit any of their aunt's intelligence. They were dragged down by that stupid and inferior gene. They usually seem quite clever, but when something happens, they just stare blankly. It's really infuriating to watch them."

Du Yunni and the other person: "..." This is really a mother, she doesn't have to be so hurtful.

"The children are young, and this is the first time they've encountered such an unpredictable old rogue. It's like a scholar encountering a soldier—they can't reason with each other. It's no wonder they can't react quickly enough. Even we adults might not have handled it as well as they have. So please don't be too harsh on them."

"I don't really blame them, I'm just so angry at their shamelessness. Today, thanks to An'an and Yuxi's clarification, the two children were cleared of all wrongdoing. Otherwise, if those two old guys had continued to make wild accusations and distort the truth, who knows what kind of rumors would have spread over time, which would have had a bad impact on the children at school."

"Besides that, I also want to thank An'an for reminding me today. If it weren't for what you said today, I might not have been able to figure it out so quickly. I realized that the two old folks' sudden trouble-making was very likely related to their grandson."

Du Anrao waved his hand, unwilling to take credit: "Even without my reminder, Aunt, you would have thought of this sooner or later."

The timing of these two's visit was strange in itself. If they really wanted to cause trouble for Du Lianshuang and resort to moral blackmail, they should have come looking for her when Cui Jueyan got into trouble.

Of course, it's also possible that things happened so fast that they didn't have time to react, and by the time they did, everything was already settled, and searching would be pointless. But since it wasn't about Cui Jueyan, it's easy to guess who their family's precious gem is now, especially since that person seems to be bedridden right now.

"It makes me angry just thinking about this. I always thought that every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor. That scumbag Cui Jueyan cheated on me, so I'll make trouble for him. Anyway, without him, those monsters in his family won't amount to much."

Of course, the main reason was that I knew Yin Bailu and her husband were also planning to take action, so I wanted to give them some room to maneuver and vent my anger.

Unexpectedly, this family, with some locked up and others paralyzed, still couldn't behave themselves!

“I’m definitely going to send those two old folks to jail. They dared to mess with my child, so don’t even think about getting away unscathed. As for their precious grandson, I just called your Aunt Yin, and she said she’ll have someone break his remaining leg later. I don’t believe he can still get up and cause trouble after that.”

Du Anrao: "..." Okay, that's very much like my aunt.

In any case, the matter concerning Du Lianshuang's family has come to an end. Du Anrao didn't ask what happened to the Cui family afterward, but seeing that Du Yunni and Du Xiuyuan hadn't returned after being taken home, it seemed that the family was completely finished and would never be able to cause any more trouble.

Du Anrao stayed at home for nearly a month, and another month passed while receiving relatives and friends visiting her. When Xi Jingyue called her again, it had been almost two months since their last meeting.

This time, Xi Jingyue still warmly invited her to his home, but the content of the visit had changed.

"You're inviting me to your family's ancestral worship ceremony?" Du Anrao almost thought he had misheard. "No, your family is worshipping your ancestors, what am I, an outsider, supposed to do there?"

"Here's the thing, the video of you angrily confronting Li Qianxi in the coffee shop has been widely circulated online. My parents and grandparents have all seen it. I found out by chance that you were the female protagonist in the video, and that you had also done a feng shui consultation for Zhaoyang Company before that. It just so happens that a lot of strange and illogical things have been happening in our family recently, so I thought I would take advantage of this ancestral worship ceremony to invite you to come and help me see if there is a problem with the feng shui of our ancestral graves."

After explaining, Xi Jingyue didn't forget to advocate for her rights: "You can rest assured about the price. We'll double the market price as compensation for your long journey. We'll also reimburse your round-trip transportation costs. What do you think?"

Du Anrao hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Where is your hometown?"

"In K City, G Province."

Du Anrao's first reaction after hearing this was: This is too far! No wonder the price has doubled; the travel expenses are indeed quite expensive.

As if anticipating Du Anrao's concerns, Xi Jingyue spoke first, "It is a bit far, but it's only once a year, and all the relatives, young and old, will be there. It's rare for the whole family to be together like this, and while it's lively, we're also worried about potential trouble, especially since it involves ancestral worship. My parents are considering this, which is why they wanted to ask you to come and help. If it's inconvenient for you..."
