After listening to the little sister's seemingly understated and calm words, Su Mingzhe was unable to say anything to refute.
Yes, he had been thinking about this issue on the way back to China, and he was indeed angry. He wanted to know why neither Mingcheng nor Mingyu was with his mother when something happened.
But considering the matter, he found that he could not answer the question now.
After all, I have been abroad for a long time, and the only concern I have for my parents is the phone call, so how can I blame my younger siblings?
Therefore, Su Mingzhe looked sad and could not speak at all.
Su Mingyu did not continue talking aggressively, but gave him a concerned look and said: "Brother, you have worked hard all the way, why don't you lie down for a while. There is still a distance from here to the funeral parlor, and there must be something to discuss at night.
, I guess I won’t be able to rest that early.”
"No, at this time, how can I sleep?" Su Mingzhe shook his head and asked, "By the way, how did you arrange Mom's funeral?"
Hearing him ask about this, Lin Li, who was driving, said: "As for the ceremony, the funeral home has its own set of procedures. Mingyu and I have already arranged it. Everything will be done according to the highest standards. Brother Mingzhe, you don't have to worry.
.”
"Thank you so much, Xiaoshi!"
Su Mingzhe solemnly thanked Lin Li again. Although he didn't know the specific price at the funeral home, he also knew that the highest standard would cost a lot of money.
Even if the other party drives such an expensive car, he should not be short of money, but it does not mean that he can accept it with peace of mind.
"Brother Mingzhe is too polite." Lin Li replied lightly, but said nothing more and continued to concentrate on driving his car.
Afterwards, he was sent to the funeral home to see Zhao Meilan for the last time. Seeing Su Mingzhe crying in front of his mother's body, Lin Li did not speak during the whole process.
During this time, Su Mingyu contacted her father and learned that he had finally chosen a cemetery and had now gone home.
So after Su Mingzhe said goodbye to his mother, Lin Li took them and drove directly to Su Mingcheng's home.
When he saw his father, Su Mingzhe once again shed tears without saying a word. He just called out "Dad" and hugged Su Daqiang in tears.
Su Mingcheng and Su Daqiang also burst into tears. The father and son held their heads together at the door and sobbed.
Only Lin Li, Su Mingyu, and Zhu Li looked at each other in confusion and did not join them in crying.
It's okay to say that Lin Li and Zhu Li are not completely Su family members after all. Su Mingyu has no eyesight to see them at all. In her heart, relatives are just symbols with no special symbolic meaning. Naturally, there is no way to be like Su Mingyu.
The three men in the family felt the same way.
"Dad, I know you are sad, but you must also take care of your health. Mom is gone and nothing will happen to you again."
After a while, Su Mingzhe helped his father into the house and sat down on the sofa.
"Hey, Mingyu, and this is Xiaoshi, right? Come in and sit down!"
Then, Zhu Li quickly welcomed Su Mingyu and Lin Li outside the door.
It was the first time for both of them to come to Su Mingcheng's house. After entering the house, Lin Li looked up and looked around. He saw that the interior of the room was quite exquisitely decorated, with snow-white walls and simple but not simple furniture.
It was neatly tidied, and there was a crystal vase of white lilies placed on the coffee table. The whole house looked comfortable, warm, bright and open. I think this must have been Julie's vision.
Walking past the sofa, Lin Li was about to sit down when he suddenly smelled an unpleasant body odor in his nose. Not surprisingly, this must have come from Su Daqiang.
This time, Lin Li instantly remembered that Su Daqiang had a bad habit of not liking to take a bath.
Frowning, he calmly pulled Su Mingyu and sat on the stool by the window, away from the sofa circle where Su Daqiang was.
Su Mingyu was very familiar with Lin Li, and when she looked at his face, she probably realized something, so she gave him a look to signal him to be patient.
At this time, a burst of sweet smell diluted the smell of Su Daqiang. It turned out that Zhu Li came over with two cups of freshly ground coffee. She smiled at Lin Li and Su Mingyu with some restraint and said: "Mingyu, Xiaoshi, this is also
This is our first official meeting. You didn’t come when Mingcheng and I got married, but it doesn’t matter. We are all a family after all. We should keep in touch and move around more in the future."
She said this out of politeness on the one hand, but also sincerely on the other.
After all, her mother-in-law had just passed away, and as far as she knew, the relationship between the two siblings, Mingcheng and Mingyu, was not very good. As a member of the Su family, she wanted to try to change this situation.
Out of politeness, Lin Li smiled and nodded: "Okay, Sister Zhu Li, please contact me often in the future."
However, Su Mingyu was indifferent to her words and did not answer her question. She just took a sip of coffee and said calmly: "The coffee is good."
Su Mingcheng had been paying attention to the situation on his wife's side. Seeing that Su Mingyu didn't give Zhu Li any face, he couldn't help but sniffed and said with an ugly face: "That's your second sister-in-law! Su Mingyu, what's your attitude?"
Hearing this, Lin Li raised his brows and was about to say something, but before he could say anything, Zhu Li immediately acted as a peacemaker: "It's okay, husband, you see, the eldest brother just got off the plane, and dad and Xiaoshi are also busy.
It’s been a day, why don’t you go down and buy them some food.”
She knew her husband's temperament, and if he continued talking, the two siblings might quarrel, so she had to get rid of him quickly.
Although Su Mingcheng was very dissatisfied, he did not want to quarrel with Su Mingyu at this moment, so he immediately went out with a dark face.
Not long after he left, Su Mingzhe suddenly talked about his destination while chatting with his father.
When Su Daqiang mentioned this matter, he immediately held his eldest son's hand and cried nonchalantly: "Mingzhe, what should I do? Your mother is gone, and I don't know what to do. You can't ignore me...
"
When Su Mingzhe saw his father crying again, he quickly comforted him in a soft voice: "Dad, don't worry, don't cry. Mom is gone, but there are still our three brothers and sisters. We will take good care of you in the future."
.”
Su Daqiang first raised his head and glanced at him secretly, then lowered his head and feigned sobs: "Old house...I don't want to go back to live now. You said that I will stay there alone in the future, and it will be your mother who opens and closes my eyes. I...
I'm scared, everywhere I look...it seems like your mother is there."
At this time, he had made up his mind that he didn't want to go back to his old house no matter what.
