"Honey, what do you think of this house? The community is close to the business district and there is a park in front of it," Zhu Li asked.
Qian Wen and Zhu Li spent the afternoon in a house in a high-end community.
Su Daqiang also came back from a walk, but one look at the smile on his face and he knew that he must have been bragging to others. Everyone at the lottery station and square dancing place must have known that Su Daqiang was about to live in a three-bedroom apartment, and his eldest son bought it for him.
He doesn't even want it.
Evening, 6:30.
Su Daqiang, who came back humming a song, looked at the kitchen and shouted, "Mingcheng, why haven't you cooked yet?"
Qian Wen and Zhu Li looked at each other in the master bedroom. The tone sounded familiar. It was Su Daqiang letting himself go again.
Qian Wen put the phone in Zhu Li's hand, stood up and walked to the living room.
Su Daqiang wore sunglasses at night and sat on the sofa with his legs crossed.
It seems that it was Su Mingzhe's return to China that made him a little forgetful.
"Dad, what did you just say? I didn't hear clearly." Qian Wen asked.
Su Daqiang froze when he heard this, his head didn't move, and his eyes bulged. He had already noticed the tone just now.
"Uh~ Mingcheng, Dad is asking if you are hungry. Dad is cooking today." Su Daqiang smiled sarcastically.
Qian Wen glanced at him and went to the kitchen to cook.
After a simple meal, Qian Wen took tea and watched TV with Lili, while Su Daqiang sat next to him holding his mobile phone.
"Mingcheng, show me how to do this. I don't understand. This room is better." Su Daqiang said.
Qian Wen glanced at the screen and said, "Hey guys, these locations are all in the city center, with convenient transportation and various commercial circles around them."
Is this too much for Su Mingzhe?
Qian Wen didn't take the phone. He didn't really want to get involved in Su Mingzhe and Su Daqiang's house purchase.
He was afraid of making himself look sexy.
"Dad, my eldest brother mentioned that I wanted to buy this house for you. If you want to discuss it, you should discuss it with me. What should you discuss with me?" Qian Wen said.
"Isn't this asking you to help provide advice?" Su Daqiang said.
"No, I don't have time to help you with your advice. I'm also moving to a new house and I'm too busy." Qian Wen refused.
Su Daqiang turned to look at Qian Wen, "Do you want to buy a house?"
"Is it weird? You already have a three-bedroom apartment, what's wrong with me buying a house!"
"Where did you get the money?" Su Daqiang asked.
"You don't have to worry about it." Qian Wen refilled his tea and said.
Julie went to the kitchen to get some fruit and peeled it bit by bit with a knife.
"That's good for us to advise each other." Su Daqiang said.
"We can't consult each other. What I want to buy is a detached house, and what you want to buy is a building."
"What?" Su Daqiang was even more surprised.
He took a small piece of apple peeled off by Lili and stuffed it into Su Daqiang's stunned mouth.
Su Daqiang chewed the fruit in his mouth and continued to ask, "Then let me see the house you chose."
Seeing this, Qian Wen reached out and asked Lili for her cell phone.
"Here." He checked out several properties on his phone that he and Lili had been eyeing in the afternoon.
Su Daqiang looked through it little by little. It was a detached house with a small garden, a gym, a separate study room, a cloakroom, a large living room, and an open kitchen.
The more he turned over it, the more he felt itchy. This was the house in his mind.
"Mingcheng, how much does this house cost?" Su Daqiang asked.
"It's none of your business. You should just choose your three-bedroom apartment." Qian Wen took back his mobile phone.
Su Daqiang stopped watching TV and didn't choose a three-bedroom apartment. He returned to his room in a state of despair.
"Dad, are you okay?" Julie looked at the closed door of the second bedroom.
"What's the matter? It's just that the old man's heart is unbalanced." Qian Wen opened his mouth and Lili fed him a mouthful of fruit.
"Lili, as soon as you ask for leave tomorrow, we will go look at the house and finish it as soon as possible and move to a new home as soon as possible."
The two stayed in the living room for a while, and then went back to their room to spend time together.
…
When Su Daqiang returned to his room, he immediately called Su Mingzhe.
When Su Mingzhe answered the phone, he glanced at the door carefully, then covered the phone with his hand and whispered.
"Mingzhe, Mingcheng also wants to buy a house."
"What?" Su Mingzhe exclaimed.
There were a lot of surprises today.
Wu Fei, who was passing by the living room to pour water, heard Su Mingzhe shouting, "What's wrong?"
Su Mingzhe pointed to the phone and turned on the speakerphone.
"Ming Cheng, they are also going to buy a house. It will be a single-family low-rise mansion, the kind with a small garden, a fitness room, and an independent study room."
On the other end of the phone, Wu Fei and Su Mingzhe looked at each other.
"Mingzhe, please explain where you got so much money, and can I have a three-bedroom apartment..." The last sentence is the key point, he also wants to live in a big mansion.
Wu Fei, who sensed something was wrong, said hurriedly, "Dad, Mingzhe and I just got off the plane, and we are still jet-lagged. Let's not talk for now. Hang up." Then he hung up the phone.
Su Daqiang stared blankly at the mobile phone that made a blind tone.
The hotel room where Su Mingzhe’s family stayed temporarily.
"What are you doing? How could you hang up dad's phone?" Su Mingzhe said angrily.
"If you don't hang up, you will buy a single-family mansion!" Wu Fei walked away angrily.
"What are you talking about? How could dad let me buy a single-family mansion?" Su Mingzhe followed.
"Okay, let's not talk about your dad. Didn't you explain that you have no money and can't help dad buy a house? How can you have money to buy a single-family mansion?" Wu Fei asked.
Su Mingzhe scratched his head, trying hard to figure it out, "I don't know either."
"No matter how rich Mingcheng is, it just so happens that my father wants to buy a house and our family's finances are also tight. Now we can let Mingcheng contribute part of the money," Wu Fei said.
They were chatting just now. They were all the children of Su Daqiang, and they wanted Qian Wen to also contribute. However, Wu Fei had just made this request and was rejected by Su Mingzhe.
Because at the lunch table, he had already said that he was solely responsible for his father's three-bedroom apartment, and now he turned around and asked his second son to pay for it. Wasn't this asking him to go back on his word and slap him in the face? He couldn't do it.
In fact, even if Su Mingzhe really told Qian Wen that he should pay part of Su Daqiang's house purchase price, Qian Wen would refuse.
It wasn't that he was reluctant to spend money, but that he knew how much Su Daqiang was doing and he didn't want to cause trouble for himself.
The old house has always been empty, surrounded by old neighbors. Why can't Su Daqiang go back to live there? It's something he's used to.
"No, I already told you that I am fully responsible for Dad's house, how could you do this!" Su Mingzhe said.
"Then sell the old house."
"How could you do this? The old house is full of my memories, how can you sell it just as you say?" Su Mingzhe said angrily.
Wu Feijian couldn't continue the conversation, so he said, "Since you're embarrassed to say it, I'll go talk to Su Mingcheng myself tomorrow." Then he went back to his room.
Su Mingzhe immediately tried to persuade Wu Fei, but unfortunately the bedroom door was locked.
"Wu Fei, Wu Fei, open the door..." He called for a while, but no one answered.
That night, only Qian Wen and Lili slept peacefully.
Su Mingzhe, Wu Fei, Su Daqiang, and Su Mingyu all couldn't sleep all night.
The next day, I sent Julie to the company and waited for her to ask for leave downstairs.
After waiting for a while, I didn't see Julie downstairs, but I did get her call.
"Husband, I'm sorry~" Julie said pitifully.
"What's wrong with this?" Qian Wen asked.
"I may not be able to take leave."
"Why, doesn't the leader approve it?"
"The boss granted me leave, but I don't really want to take it."
Qian Wen didn't understand.
Zhu Li continued, "Didn't my boss praise me some time ago? The head of the human resources department just told me that I have hope of promotion, so during this period..."
Qian Wen understood that Zhu Li was also a workaholic and attached great importance to her career. Yesterday he told Zhu Li that he would stop working and manage the family's property.
Unexpectedly, Julie refused directly, saying that the quirky pet house was on the right track and that she would not be able to help at all, and might even be unhelpful.
Qian Wen thought about it carefully and realized that it might indeed be the case. Julie was afraid of stuffed pets and couldn't do anything in the pet house.
"Okay, then when will we take a look at the house?" Qian Wen asked.
"Honey, you go shopping first, I trust your vision." Julie blew a kiss through the phone and hung up.
Qian Wen shrugged. Lili didn't have time, and he, a grown man, didn't bother to go shopping. He went directly to the pet house to buy a single-family low-rise mansion worth tens of millions. He had to make some money.
Wang Ruirui has to buy some rare pets.
Wang Ruirui is the second batch of new employees and is now responsible for the pet acquisition business of the pet house.
Halfway through the car, Qian Wen's cell phone rang.
"Hey sister-in-law~" Qian Wen said.
"Mingcheng, are you at home? I'll go over and check on dad in a moment," said Wu Fei on the other end of the phone.
"I'm outside right now. I really don't know if dad is at home or not. You should give him a call." Qian Wen said.
Wu Fei on the other end of the phone hesitated for a while, thinking of his daughter Xiaomi, gritted his teeth and said, "Mingcheng, can you come back for a while? I have something to tell you."
"Sister-in-law, just tell me on the phone."
"Let's meet and chat tomorrow."
Looking at the hung up phone, Qian Wen thought for a while and didn't understand what Wu Fei could do to him.
He turned around and drove home. On the way back, Su Mingzhe also called and asked if he had received a call from Wu Fei.
Qian Wen told the truth, and then Su Mingzhe said "See you at home" and hung up the phone in a hurry, with Xiaomi's voice still on the phone.
"Inexplicable." Qian Wen muttered, Su Mingzhe's family was all acting strangely today.
I bought some fruits on the way and arrived home after a long journey.
Opening the door, Su Daqiang, Su Mingzhe, Wu Fei and Xiaomi were sitting in the living room.
It seems that Su Daqiang was called back by Su Mingzhe.
"Sister-in-law, what's the matter? You're in such a hurry to see me." Qian Wen hung up his coat and changed his shoes.
Before Wu Fei could say anything, Su Mingzhe rushed to answer, "It's nothing, I just missed you, so I came to take a look."
Qian Wen raised his eyebrows. He heard the problem. Why did Xiaomi think of a rough guy like me? She should think of Su Mingyu or Zhu Li.
But he didn't expose it, just wait and see what happens. As long as it has anything to do with him, sooner or later the truth will be revealed.
Wu Fei wanted to say something, but Su Mingzhe held her tightly, pleading.
Wu Fei had no choice but to put aside what was in his heart for the time being.
Su Daqiang, who had long realized something was wrong, remained silent, trying his best not to be noticed.
I went to the kitchen to wash some fruits and returned to the living room with the plate.
"Lili has gone to work, otherwise we can let her make coffee." Qian Wen said.
"Yes, Lili's hand-ground coffee is delicious." Su Daqiang whispered.
"Xiao Mi eats fruit."
"Thank you, uncle."
"So good~" Qian Wen touched Xiaomi's baby face.
They are all very good in the whole drama, Xiaomi is the most likable.
During this period, Wu Fei wanted to say something many times, but Su Mingzhe secretly held him back.
Qian Wen all saw it and wondered what they wanted to do with him to make the two of them so entangled.
I'm a little confused, is he involved in anything with Wu Fei and Su Mingzhe?
I can't understand.
"Sister-in-law, just tell me if you have something to do. I'll have something to do later, so I can't stay at home all the time." Qian Wen said.
"Mingcheng, if you have anything to do, go ahead and get busy. Feifei will come to you if nothing happens." Su Mingzhe answered first.
"Mingcheng..." Wu Fei opened his mouth to say something.
"Fei Fei!" Su Mingzhe's tone became serious.
"Brother, I can see that my sister-in-law really has something to do with me. Just let her tell me." Qian Wen said.
Su Mingzhe opened his mouth, then patted his thigh and said nothing.
Wu Fei looked at Xiaomi who was playing beside him, and all the hesitation in his eyes disappeared.
"This is why Mingcheng came to you this time.
Doesn’t your eldest brother want to buy a house for dad? Before we returned to China, we had agreed to sell the old house and buy a two-bedroom apartment for dad..."
Before Wu Fei finished speaking, Su Daqiang exclaimed, "What? You want to sell my house?"
"Mingzhe, is this true?" Su Daqiang looked at Su Mingzhe.
Wu Fei ignored Su Daqiang's question and continued, "But your eldest brother changed his two-bedroom apartment into a three-bedroom apartment. Your eldest brother and I don't have enough money at once, so I want to ask you if you can also contribute some money."
Qian Wen took a bite of the fruit and said, "Sister-in-law, you want to borrow money?"
Wu Fei was stunned and said hurriedly, "That's not what I meant."
"What do you mean?" Qian Wen was a little confused. It wasn't borrowing money or something.
"You are also my father's child. If my father wants to buy a house, you should also help me," Wu Fei said.
Su Mingzhe hurriedly lowered his head when he heard these words. His face felt a little hot. He had already said that he would take full responsibility, but now...
This embarrassed him, and the dignity of the eldest brother of the Su family was disgraced.
Hearing this, Qian Wen burst into laughter and became a little angry.
However, she looked at Xiaomi who was standing aside and did not speak. Instead, she stood up and picked up Xiaomi, "Xiaomi, there is something interesting in your second aunt's room. My second uncle will take you to see it."
Wu Fei looked at Qian Wen.
"There are some things that Xiaomi is not suitable for listening to. Wait for me." After Qian Wen finished speaking, he carried Xiaomi to the master bedroom bed, turned on his phone and played a cartoon.
After settling Xiaomi and closing the door of the master bedroom, the smile on Qian Wen's face disappeared.
Returning to the living room, Su Daqiang saw a familiar face and stood up hurriedly, "I...I'm a little tired, so I went back to the room to rest."
Su Mingzhe and Wu Fei were shocked when they saw this. It was the first time they saw Su Daqiang like this.
"Okay, everyone who has nothing to do with it has left. Now I'm going to have a good-bye with you and your wife." Qian Wen's tone was flat and there was no trace of enthusiasm anymore.
This made Su Mingzhe and Wu Fei a little unable to react. This person had changed too much.
Qian Wen took a sip of water and then asked, "Is this the house you want to buy for dad?"
Wu Fei wanted to say something, but Qian Wen stopped him, "Answer my question first, and then I'll answer yours."
Wu Fei was silent for a moment, and then said, "Yes, it was your eldest brother and I's idea to buy a house for dad."
"Then I wasn't forced to buy a three-bedroom apartment, right?" Qian Wen continued to ask.
Wu Fei glanced at Su Mingzhe. She was not in the box at that time. Su Mingzhe took a breath and said, "You didn't force me."
"Then why do you want me to take the decision when you can't make the decision yourself?" Qian Wen asked.
In fact, Qian Wen also had this question when he saw that everything was going well. It was Su Mingzhe's family's decision to buy a house for Su Daqiang, and it was Su Mingzhe's decision to buy a three-bedroom apartment.
Why don't they ask other people's opinions before making a decision? Instead, they start talking about this and that after making a decision and start dividing responsibilities.
In addition, Wu Fei actually said in the play that he sold his old house to pay the down payment for the new house, and left the remaining monthly payments to Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li. Their obligation was to pay for the nanny.
He was stunned when he saw it. Even the two-bedroom apartment they had decided on before returning to China would cost more than three million yuan in Su City. The down payment was more than one million yuan, which meant that they had to pay back more than two million yuan. For Su Mingcheng and
Will Julie pay the monthly payment?
You should know that Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li have been paying the monthly payment for their two-bedroom apartment!
This is something Wu Fei said, why can you make millions of dollars worth of decisions for others?
Just because Su Mingcheng is chewing his old age in the play, this kind of chewing his old age is also called "gnawing his old age". It is the kind of chewing his old age that Su Mingcheng does not work and has nothing to do.
Su Mingcheng has always been with the old man, and the old man is willing to let his children live a better life.
No one is qualified to say whether Su Mingcheng should accompany Su's mother or Su Daqiang, especially Su Mingzhe.
At that time, Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li were already working hard to repay the money, so what else was owed? What qualifications do you, Wu Fei, have to say that this is what Su Mingcheng should pay.
Isn't this what Su Mingzhe should pay? After all, Su Mingzhe went to the United States with his family's money and came back several times in more than ten years. The most filial piety should be you, Su Mingzhe's family, not Su Mingcheng's family.
Especially when it comes to supporting the elderly, Wu Fei said that support is the nanny's money, while Su Mingcheng's family's support is several million.
He is really 'reasonable and sensible, and he is a good person.'
"No, you are also my father's son, shouldn't you be filial?" Wu Fei said anxiously.
"My eldest brother has been abroad for more than ten years and I have always been by my parents' side.
After my mother passed away, my eldest brother returned to the United States, and I was the one who took care of my father.
My eldest brother won’t let dad go to the United States. My dad is making a lot of noise at my house, but I’m still by his side. Who do you think is unfilial, me or my eldest brother?” Qian Wen asked.
Wu Fei was speechless, and Su Mingzhe's head dropped even lower.
"Before you make your own decision, have you considered whether Lili and I agreed to buy a house for dad?
You buy a house as an investment, but in the end you can no longer afford it, but we have to willingly pay this so-called filial piety money. Are you too ignorant and take yourself too seriously?"
"Without your new house, the old man is still living well. He can go back to his old house. I can live here and my little sister can live there. I really can't rent him a three-bedroom apartment.
Just because of the decisions made by your family, your family is in chaos. Don't you think that the suffering you think is all caused by yourself?
What qualifications do you have to lecture me here and ask me to pay this money!"
Qian Wen's words were very rude. Although his questions were a bit one-sided, all this was caused by the Su Mingzhe family themselves. Why should others bear the consequences?
There are so many ways to support the elderly and take care of them. Using a house worth millions to make Su Daqiang happy is really crazy!
