After eating, we went to the mall for a walk.
Mainly because Su Mingyu also felt the strange smell on his father's body.
Mingyu treated Su Daqiang quite generously, buying several sets of clothes from head to toe, inside and out, including underwear, woolen pants, thermals, and down jackets
Su Daqiang carried large and small clothes A small famous brand with an old face that looks like a flower blooming.
"Don't wear them now."
"Wait until you go back at night and take a shower before wearing new clothes."
Hearing his daughter's words, Su Daqiang nodded obediently , chuckled and said, "Okay, okay."
It tastes good and is easy to wear.
This kind of life seems to be very luxurious and unrestrained.
When he arrived at the parking spot, the wild old boy put his clothes in the trunk. He had a vague idea of having sex with Mingyu, but this idea swirled in his mind, and he suddenly He wilted back.
Su Daqiang still doesn’t dare to get along with his daughter alone.
Mingyu drove Su Daqiang back to Su Mingcheng's home, with Lu Ze sitting in the passenger seat.
"Mingzhe"
"Why don't you stay with me tonight?"
"We just want to talk about what's on our minds."< /p>
Su Daqiang, who was sitting in the back row, was thinking about how he would live in the future.
In the end, it seemed that this matter had to be discussed with the eldest son. He could not trust Mingcheng and Mingyu.
Lao Su still understands his eldest son.
Yeah, I believe it.
But Lu Ze hadn’t spoken yet. Mingyu, who was driving the car, immediately grabbed the conversation and said without looking back, "Come on, my eldest brother has been tired for a long day today." , we have to prepare for mom’s funeral later, Dad, can you just let him have a good rest for two days?"
"Brother, I have already booked a hotel for you."
"I will drive you there after I send dad back."
Lu Ze nodded slightly.
He turned to Su Daqiang and smiled, "Be good."
There was no words for the whole night.
The next morning, everyone gathered at Su Mingcheng's home again to discuss matters related to the funeral tomorrow.
The afternoon air was filled with the sweet aroma of coffee. Julie was grinding coffee in the kitchen at this time. After Su Daqiang put on brand new clothes, the old man followed his daughter-in-law silently.
Lao Su has art in his heart, and Daqiang, who works in the library, has always regarded himself as a cultural person.
This coffee is naturally an indispensable companion for modern literati.
"Lili."
"Don't give me sugar, just add some milk."
Daqiang rubbed his hands and waited eagerly for the coffee Freshly baked.
Compared with the way he looked half dead on the sofa yesterday, he looked completely different.
After the coffee was made, everyoneWe sat down to discuss the funeral arrangements.
Lu Ze, the eldest son of Su, was naturally the host, while Su Daqiang held up the steaming coffee and was obedient. The old man always said good things after everyone gave a speech.
When he was at home, his wife was suppressing him, and he never had any say.
Now that his wife is dead, Su Daqiang thought that he would be the master of the family, but it seems that he can't come up with anything decent to say.
Su Daqiang, okay, that’s fine.
Lu Ze and Mingcheng had a discussion, and Zhu Li also participated in the discussion. Only Mingyu did not interrupt, sitting far away and watching their excitement with rolling eyes.
Over the years, all Su Mingyu has been thinking about is that she will never have any contact with the Su family.
Every reunion with these relatives was regarded by her as torture.
But what her elder brother said to her last night still inevitably hit her heart.
This veteran of the Zhongcheng Group and a strong woman in the eyes of countless employees still doesn't know how to deal with these complicated family relationships in her body.
A clean break
After hearing the news of her mother's death, she immediately put down her work and hurried to the hospital.
Mingyu had a deep-seated hatred for this family.
But I hate it but I don’t hate it completely.
Mingyu tasted the bitter yet fragrant hand-ground coffee in the cup.
Just like her current mood, it is complicated and difficult to understand.
After talking to Mingcheng about the funeral, Lu Ze took out several detailed receipts from his arms. This was the entire cost of the funeral. Just buying the cemetery cost 20 yuan. More than 10,000 yuan, and the miscellaneous expenses added up to almost 400,000 yuan.
Su Mingyu naturally paid for this money.
"Mingcheng, each of us two brothers will pay half of the money."
Su Mingcheng was slightly startled by Lu Ze's words.
He glanced at Su Mingyu, who was sitting comfortably in a rattan rocking chair and drinking coffee. His wife had not said thank you when she brought her coffee just now, and now she was still so indifferent to her mother's funeral.
Mingcheng snorted disdainfully in the direction of Mingyu, turned to Lu Ze and said, "Brother, isn't Su Mingyu from the Su family? Since she has already paid, why are the two of us joining in the fun?" "
"As my mother's child, shouldn't I spend some money to raise her so big?"
"Otherwise she would not be qualified to attend her funeral. "
Mingyu placed the coffee cup on the table in the living room. She slowly stood up and came to Mingcheng's side. She looked at her nominal second brother with a smile on her face. "Why am I not qualified to be buried in my mother's grave?" I bought it, and I paid for the funeral.”
“I’m not qualified, are you?”
Yes.Su Mingyu mostly resented her dead mother.
As for the arrogant Su Mingcheng in front of her, she only felt hatred in her heart.
“Don’t you always claim to be your mother’s good son? Why don’t you feel happy when your elder brother asks you to pay some money?”
Mingyu’s words are so obvious that they don’t exist at all. Not at all polite.
Originally, she didn't care much about the money, but this was not the reason why Su Mingcheng could roll with the flow.
As soon as Su Daqiang’s eyes turned and he realized something was wrong, he quickly covered his stomach and said, “My stomach is still not used to drinking this kind of foreign stuff. I have to go to the toilet quickly. My stomach It’s so uncomfortable.”
In a flash, the wild old boy disappeared from everyone’s sight.
Juli quickly grabbed her husband who was about to get up from the sofa. The woman's eyes were full of anxiety and she whispered to Mingcheng, "Husband, we have to pay a share of the funeral money." Yes, there is no reason for Mingyu to pay for it all."
Juli is still a reasonable and good wife.
Normally, Su's mother always helped her and Mingcheng, but when it came time to fulfill her filial piety, she couldn't stand back.
"Don't you have two stinky money? What's so great about you?"
"Have you ever shed a tear since mom passed away?"
< p>Su Mingcheng's tone was filled with strong anger.What he hates most about Su Mingyu is her bad attitude towards her mother. In Mingcheng's opinion, his mother is the best mother in the world. The Su Mingyu in front of him always made her mother angry in the past.
Now that her mother has passed away, she still has such an attitude that it doesn’t matter to her.
Mingyu looked at Mingcheng's anxious look and remembered the thick account book she had read yesterday. Most of her parents' pension went into Su Mingcheng's pocket. Her tone was full of disdain, "I just have it." What's wrong with the dirty money?"
"It's a pity that you can't even come up with this dirty money. You just ask for it from your family all day long."
"You can't even ask for money from your family when you get married or buy a house. Forget it, after you get married, you are still thinking about your parents’ pension money.”
Su Mingcheng’s face instantly turned red, his eyes were as excited as seeing red bull’s eyes, and he looked away. Zhu Li's hand next to her pointed at Mingyu's nose and cursed angrily, "Who are you talking about chewing the old man?"
"Can a family's accounts be calculated so clearly?"
Ming Jade's face did not change, but he looked at the elder brother next to him, "Brother, where are those account books that dad has?"
Lu Ze had long expected that something like this would happen today.
The numerous problems that have accumulated at home over the years should be taken out, washed, aired, and sorted out.
As Lu Ze took out the three account books from his backpack, Su Mingcheng saw that the one with his name on it was very thick. The man's eyes widened. He naturally knew who made these things. masterpiece.
He came in one strideGo to the bathroom door and yell inside, "Dad, you are really good."
"Accounting, you are super high-level"
"You are so talented, you You shouldn’t stay at home, you should go to the office with Lili to be an accountant.”
At this time, Su Daqiang, who was sitting on the toilet, tightened his neck like a turtle and covered it with his hands. ear.
I don’t listen
I don’t know anything
Looking at the account books on the table, the originally noisy atmosphere suddenly became quiet.
The corner of Su Mingyu's mouth raised, "This book belongs to me, and that book belongs to my eldest brother. Our father's accounting skills are very good. He even recorded a lollipop he bought when he was a child." "Here, Su Mingcheng, why don't you read your copy?"
Zhu Li, who was shocked, picked up Mingcheng's copy and looked at it carefully.
"Second sister-in-law, you happen to be a professional accountant. Dad remembers these accounts clearly. Each one has the name and number written on it. Each account has the exact time, place and date. The reason."
"Take a good look, we'd better calculate the amount."
"Look at who has been chewing the old."
Listening to Mingyu's strange words, Su Mingcheng became excited again and cursed loudly, "Su Mingyu, what do you mean, who is so old? My parents gave me all the money voluntarily, and that's because my parents love me." "What does this have to do with you?"
Julie picked up her phone and started to calculate the detailed amounts on the ledger.
The more I continued to calculate, the more panicked I became.
Feeling this thick stack of ledgers, she had a premonition that what Mingyu said might be true.
The couple seems to have really become a family of nibbling old people without realizing it.
"Su Mingcheng, shut up"
"Go to the bedroom now and don't come out until I finish settling the account"
Ju Li Meng She slammed the table and shouted to her husband.
Su Mingcheng shrank his neck. He always obeyed his wife's words. Looking at his wife's white and tender little hands, he whispered, "Don't be excited. These hands hurt from slapping them. I'll go to the bedroom and return them." Can't you?"
After finishing speaking, Mingcheng glanced at Mingyu, and then walked towards the bedroom on his own.
Su Mingyu looked at her second brother's attitude towards her second sister-in-law, but she sneered in her heart. She didn't know how Su Mingcheng found such a good wife, who seemed to be much more reasonable.
"My book has not been recorded since I went to college."
"After my eldest brother went to the United States to work and study, he never asked for money from his family again, including getting married and buying a house. You have to rely on yourself."
"As for Su Mingcheng"
Mingyu sat back on the sofa and briefly summarized the situation of the three accounts.
She turned her head and focused her eyes on Lu Ze, with a bit of sincere kindness in her eyes. She used to admire him the most at home.Brother, even if I want to get into Tsinghua University, I am following the pace of my elder brother.
After getting along with each other for the past two days, Mingyu soon realized that his eldest brother was not the nerdy eldest brother before.
Just as she has been struggling in Zhongcheng for so many years, she is no longer the naive little Mingyu she was before.
The source of today's commotion lies in the fact that the eldest brother raised the issue of funeral expenses in order to clear up the family's accounts.
Mingyu felt indescribably moved.
Because she felt something called family and blood ties for the first time in a long time.
"Brother, thank you."
Lu Ze smiled but said nothing.
Juli on the other side is quickly summarizing Mingcheng’s expenses. She is an only child and has been pampered since she was a child. However, this does not mean that she is overbearing and ignorant. On the contrary, Zhuli is very reasonable. .
As the numbers on the calculator on the phone got higher and higher, Julie's face became redder and redder unconsciously.
She didn’t realize that she and Mingcheng had taken so much money from home without realizing it. More than half of her parents’ pensions fell into the pockets of the couple. She, Zhu Li, actually It’s also the gnawing old clan
The contents recorded in the accounts made her head slightly dizzy.
Now Zhu Li understands why Mingyu's relationship with her family is so bad, and why seeing her husband Mingcheng is like seeing an enemy. Zhuli naturally compares her family situation with Mingyu's.
She was silent for a long time as she looked at Mingyu's account book, which she stopped keeping records after entering college.
Juli walked to the bathroom with the account book and said with difficulty, "Dad, are your records in these account books accurate?"
Su Daqiang's voice sounded from inside.
“You can’t be wrong.”
“I remember that this account book won the first prize in our school’s work-study activity.”
“I really I remember correctly."
Julie knew that the thing in her hand was real.
But she couldn't accept this fact for a while. She turned around and looked at the low-key yet classy living room at home. She looked down at her exquisite dress and expensive clothes. Julie seemed to see them above. Mother Su’s smiling face.
Soon, Su Mingcheng came out of the bedroom.
The very reluctant Su Daqiang also walked out of the bathroom. The old man sat in the corner, bowing his head and saying nothing.
Ju Li was the first to speak, "Brother, Mingyu, I think we have to pay for mom's funeral expenses this time."
As soon as these words came out, Su Mingcheng was the first Someone had an opinion, "Wife, why is this?"
Zhu Li glared at her husband, "Why is it just because it's your mother, just because the two of us have taken so much money from home over the years, Su Mingcheng , How can you have the nerve to let Mingyu pay for this?"
Lu Ze stood up quickly at this time.
"Mingcheng, Zhu Li. ”
“I will bear this money together with you. ”
“That’s it for now.”
Although Julie didn’t want to get her brother involved, she didn’t feel comfortable saying anything more at this time. , only Su Mingcheng seemed to be a little irritable, and he punched the pillow next to him while sitting on the sofa.
He felt that he was now the target of criticism.
Even his wife thought he was a naughty old man, and Su Mingcheng's eyes turned red again.
He thought of his deceased mother.
Originally, he was discussing the funeral details. Today suddenly became a liquidation session. Mingyu drove away quickly. She still had a lot of things to deal with in her company. Su Daqiang quickly locked himself in the room.
There was only Lu in the living room. Brothers Ze and Mingcheng were sitting together.
"Brother, I really am not cheating. "
"That money is what mom is willing to spend on me. Mom loves me and I love her too. "
In front of his eldest brother, Mingcheng seemed to be unable to suppress his inner emotions any longer. He covered his eyes and began to cry loudly. "Mom is worried about me. She doesn't let me smoke, drink, or go out to socialize. Why? Once mom leaves, I will become a waste in your eyes."
Su Mingcheng cried very sadly.
"Lili just accused me in the room, I have What can I do?"
"You have been living abroad all year round, and you have not been able to go home for so long. Su Mingyu, the white-eyed wolf, can't find anyone. It's me who has been with my parents all these years. , I am taking care of you in your old age. "
"How come I have become a sinner?"
Lu Ze gently patted his younger brother on the back.
Of course he knew what he said
Strictly speaking, Mingcheng is not the kind of unfilial son who plunders his parents’ hard-earned money. On the contrary, he is really filial. He wants to take good care of his parents from the bottom of his heart. It’s just that he After getting married, he still did not leave the comfort zone of home.
In the original work, the biggest difference between Mingcheng and his elder brothers and sisters is that the elder brother Mingzhe is more concerned about his status as the eldest son, while the younger sister Mingzhe is more concerned about his status as the eldest son. What Yu cares about is her identity as her own.
Mingcheng completely puts his body into his identity as a son.
Is he filial?
Is he chewing on the old? gnawing on the old
Lu Ze comforted, "I know you have been with my parents all these years. Mingyu and I don't care who our parents left the money to, but just now Have you read the account book? Did Lili tell you clearly?"
Su Mingcheng nodded silently, raised his hand and wiped his tears heavily, "Lili and I will take care of all the money later. Give it back to Dad. You don’t have to worry about Dad when he is taking care of himself. Dad is living well with us. "
Looking at Mingcheng beside him, Lu Ze continued, "Later, I want to talk to you about Mingyu. ”
When Su Mingyu was mentioned, Mingcheng's attitude completely changed.
"Brother, why are you mentioning her?"
"She is not worthy of being a member of the Su family."
Lu Ze nodded slightly.
He smiled and said, "What I mean is that Mingyu should be separated from his family."
Now, it was Mingcheng's turn to be confused.
