Chapter 59 The hurricane begins at the end of the year
"Su Mingyu really disappoints me! She can't even talk about such an important thing."
Wu Fei was attentive. During the time she spent with Su Mingyu, she found that her sister-in-law rarely mentioned things about the Su family, and her husband also told her some things. However, before Su Mingzhe went abroad, he was devoted to studying and usually paid little attention to these things.
not much.
Men and women look at problems from different angles. Even if Su Mingzhe didn't say much, Wu Fei could understand the environment in which his sister-in-law grew up. The idea of 'preferring boys over girls' is too common in China, especially among their parents' generation.
generation.
Comparing oneself with others, if she lived in the Su family, Wu Fei didn't know what she would be like, whether she could be as good as Su Mingyu. She and Su Mingzhe both got half prizes. Fortunately, her parents were more open-minded, otherwise she would
There is definitely no chance to study abroad.
"Mingzhe, something may really be wrong with Mingyu. This time has wasted a lot of time. Mingyu has just entered school not long ago and is still in the adaptation period. We were still adapting to the language at this time. Some professors' accents
But it's very heavy.
It’s not easy for Mingyu to win the full scholarship. If he loses his scholarship because he goes back this time, it’s not worth it.”
Su Mingzhe lowered his head and thought for a while, then shook his head: "I went to Palo Alto during the weekend to talk to her in person. As their brother, I have the responsibility to mediate the conflicts between them. Fei Fei, what do you think about Ming
Jade still doesn’t quite understand, what she said is because she doesn’t want to go back.”
Wu Fei nodded: "That's fine, it just so happens that we haven't been back to Stanford for a long time, so it would be good to go shopping there."
Stanford was the place where the couple got together, and they left many precious memories there. Wu Fei didn't know much about the Su family, and she felt that Su Mingyu's approach this time was biased and seemed a bit inhumane.
But if Wu Fei knew what Su Mingyu had gone through, her thoughts would probably not be what they are now.
In Palo Alto, Li Jie was very smart and could clearly hear what was said on the phone. He knew Su Mingyu’s situation very well. Recently, there were no tutors to assign her topics. Those words were just an excuse for her not to go back. Su Mingcheng
He knew very well how he bullied his sister. Su Mingyu had mentioned it to him on and off over the years.
"Your elder brother asked you to go back to attend Su Mingcheng's wedding?"
This question did not surprise Su Mingyu. The two had lived together for so long, and Su Mingyu knew more or less something special about Li Jie.
"Yes, I don't want to go back, you know the reason."
Li Jie hummed softly: "With your eldest brother's temperament, I guess he won't give up easily. Maybe he will come to persuade you again. Otherwise, if you don't go back, I will accompany you to pick out a gift later."
Let your elder brother take it back."
Seeing that Su Mingyu was about to refute, Li Jie lowered his hands slightly.
"Don't refuse in a hurry. Although you have severed ties with the Su family, after all, you are still a family. Broken bones are still connected, so you still have to do superficial work. Doing so will not only block your eldest brother.
His mouth is also polite."
Thousands of years ago, Confucius once said that ministers kill their kings and sons kill their fathers. It does not happen overnight. It happened gradually. Zhuangzi also said that the hurricane started in Pingmo. Both sentences have the same meaning.
Three feet of ice did not become cold in a day. The conflicts in the Su family were not formed overnight, and they cannot be resolved overnight either.
The reason why Li Jie put forward this suggestion was, firstly, to test Su Mingyu, and secondly, to initiate the first step of change. In the original work, Su Mingcheng was so upset that his sister failed to come to his wedding that he saw
Su Mingyu's nose is not a nose, and her eyes are not eyes.
It's not a trivial matter when all the little things come together. If Li Jie proposed to go back to attend the wedding with Su Mingyu, Su Mingyu would definitely not refuse, but Li Jie would not do this. The melon is not sweet and does not come from the heart.
What's the use of what's inside?
Su Mingyu opened her mouth to say something, but then she thought about it and did not say anything. She looked undecided and remained silent for a long time.
"Then what do you want to buy?"
Li Jie smiled slightly. Since Su Mingyu could ask this question, it meant that she was still a little shaken. Otherwise, she would not have asked. If she was unwilling, she would have asked, do you think I should buy him a gift?
"Whatever, the gift is not important. What is important is that you have this attitude. What are your thoughts?"
Su Mingyu pondered for a moment, shook her head, and said softly: "I don't know what to give."
Li Jie nodded: "Well, let's buy some gifts when we go shopping on the weekend."
The matter of Su Mingcheng's marriage was settled in this way. Su Mingyu was sensitive in her heart. In fact, she had already noticed that Li Jie had been silently trying to ease the relationship between her and her family. She was not sure at first. It was not until she went abroad that she confirmed what she had in mind.
think.
Although Su Mingyu is very satisfied with her current living situation, deep down in her heart she still longs for the warmth of her family. She does not hope that one day she will get married to Li Jie without their family's blessing.
Even if Su Mingyu guessed Li Jie's true purpose, she was not angry. He didn't do so much for himself, otherwise why would he bother.
On weekends, Su Mingzhe got up early in the morning. As the eldest son of Su, he had the responsibility to mediate the relationship within the Su family. He believed that with his efforts, the Su family would be able to return to harmony.
"Fei Fei, get up, we have to go to Stanford today."
Wu Fei opened her eyes drowsily and glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside. It was only early 6 o'clock, and she could only smile helplessly. She knew why her husband was anxious to go to Stanford. Since she chose to marry Su Mingzhe, so did she.
As a member of the Su family, who doesn’t want their family to live in harmony?
The two had a simple breakfast, and then drove to Stanford. Halfway there, Wu Fei suggested: "Mingzhe, you should call Mingyu first, in case they are not around."
Su Mingzhe reacted and quickly agreed: "Yes, yes, yes, you should give them a call."
The call ended quickly. After hanging up, Su Mingzhe's mouth showed a smile and he said to Wu Fei, the co-pilot.
"Fei Fei, thank you for reminding me, otherwise we would have missed the point this time. They are on their way here now."
Wu Fei said in surprise: "Ah? Are they coming to find us?"
Su Mingzhe smiled and shook his head: "No, they were planning to go out to buy gifts. Mingyu said that she really couldn't leave this time, so she asked me to take the gifts back and apologize to the Zhu family."
Until now, Su Mingzhe began to believe that what Su Mingyu said before was true, because if Su Mingyu really didn't care about this matter, then she wouldn't even buy the gift.
