When the man died, a fruit seller who had befriended a customer inherited everything from him, including real estate worth 3.8 million rupees (about $460,000). In gratitude for the care he received from the amazing fountain in the final stages of his life, the 88-year-old decided to leave his possessions to the fruit seller and not to his family.
Ma, an old man and now deceased, bequeathed his wealth to Liu, a fruit seller in a nearby market.
It was years ago when they first met. Ma welcomed Liu and her family to stay in her apartment after noticing that Liu had a run-down place to live. After the death of Ma’s only son, Liu took on the role of primary caregiver. When Mom was injured in a fall, she took care of him and accompanied him to the hospital. The old man’s relatives did not help him in any way.
Then, in 2020, he signed a contract with the fruit seller, which his family was unaware of until after his death. Liu dragged the deceased’s family to court when they refused to hand over his assets and property.

The story is from Shanghai, China.
How did the court react?
When the notaries learned that the deceased elderly man had decided to leave his entire fortune and assets to an unrelated man, they became suspicious of his will. Despite having three sisters who lived with him, none of them received a share. His relatives also decided to challenge the deceased’s will. The fruit seller took them to court.

The Shanghai court ruled in favor of the fruit seller in the legal dispute, confirming the validity of the will despite objections from Ma’s family. They questioned the legitimacy of Ma’s will and claimed that he was mentally ill. The notaries denied this accusation.
