124 Unhappy Childhood

In the evening, Su Daqiang cooked a table of dishes, including meat and vegetables. They were all home-cooked dishes. The taste was neither good nor bad.

Although Su Daqiang has a face exactly like He Daqing, his cooking skills are far inferior.

In the courtyard world, Wang Gang was not very familiar with his father-in-law, He Daqing. After he was driven away by the widow and her children, Wang Gang found a nursing home for him and did not usually visit him.

But for Su Daqiang, Wang Gang's senses were different.

Perhaps because he has the memory of Su Mingzhe, Wang Gang is very affectionate and grateful to his parents.

Although Zhao Meilan was very unfair to Su Mingyu, she had nothing to say about her two sons, Su Mingzhe and Su Mingcheng. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was doting on her.

This may be related to the fact that she was born in a rural area and has a traditional mentality of favoring sons over daughters.

If there is chicken on the dinner table, the two chicken drumsticks must belong to Su Mingzhe and Su Mingcheng. The two of them eat the chicken wings, and finally the chicken breast is Su Mingyu's turn.

Therefore, Su Mingzhe and Su Mingcheng did not suffer much when they were young and could concentrate on their studies.

Su Mingyu was much more miserable. In addition to studying, she had to do housework, wash clothes, clean the house, and even pour night fragrance since she was a child.

With such a preference for sons over daughters, it’s no wonder that she parted ways with her family as soon as she entered college.

After Wang Gang was reborn, he looked through Su Mingzhe's memories and found that his little sister's life was difficult and he had been looking for opportunities to make up for it.

After dinner, Wang Gang tried calling Su Mingyu twice more, but no one answered. He didn't know what she was doing, whether she didn't hear him or didn't want to answer.

Wang Gang saw that the time was a little late, so he stopped calling and planned to go to her school to find her tomorrow.

Early the next morning, Wang Gang got up early, then found a courier station near his home, and delivered the purchased items one by one. He was busy until noon when he had some free time.

Wang Gang took a taxi to the Teachers College. Before the car reached the school gate, Wang Gang asked the driver to stop because he saw a familiar person at the gate of a small supermarket.

After paying the fare, Wang Gang got out of the car and walked towards the supermarket. A girl handed him a flyer.

"Sir, our supermarket has a discount. With the flyers, you can enjoy higher discounts on the products." The girl mechanically handed out the flyers without seeing the person coming.

"Mingyu." Wang Gang took the flyer and called softly.

The girl then raised her head and saw Wang Gang's face clearly.

"Brother." The girl said blankly.

The girl who handed out the flyers was Su Mingyu.

Wang Gang looked at Su Mingyu with some distress. She was dressed in simple clothes, with a ponytail, a supermarket banner on her chest, and a pair of white sneakers that she had already worn in black.

"Why are you doing this?" Wang Gang asked distressedly.

Su Mingyu smiled heartily and said: "Brother, I am working on a work-study program! Don't hinder my work."

Wang Gang took Su Mingyu's hand and asked, "It's almost noon, have you eaten?"

Su Mingyu forced a smile and said, "I have half an hour left before I get off work."

Wang Gang said firmly: "I'll wait for you for half an hour, and then we'll go have dinner."

Su Mingyu said: "I have a job to do at two o'clock in the afternoon, or we can get together next time if we have time."

Wang Gang frowned and said, "How many jobs do you work a day?"

Su Mingyu said with some embarrassment: "Just two jobs."

Wang Gang said: "Then I'll wait for you to get off work. We must have a meal today."

Seeing Wang Gang's resolute attitude, Su Mingyu knew that he couldn't escape today, so he thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll talk to the supermarket owner and leave half an hour early."

Wang Gang nodded and watched Su Mingyu walk into the small supermarket and talk to a person who seemed to be the boss.

"You've only been here a few days and you want to leave early. Do you still want to work? If you don't want to work, get out of here." The boss spoke so loudly that Wang Gang could hear it standing outside the supermarket.

"Boss, I'm sorry, I really have a special situation today. My elder brother came to see me for something. I will work for you for half an hour more tomorrow, okay?" Su Mingyu said humbly.

"Your eldest brother, I think he is your boyfriend! You said that you young people are in love all the time and don't even want to work. You really want to drink enough love!" the boss said angrily.

Wang Gang stood outside and couldn't listen anymore. When he walked into the supermarket, he shouted to the boss: "Why do you boss speak so harshly? My little sister works for you, not as a slave. If something happens, I can't leave!"

The boss's face turned blue and white after being poked by Wang Gang, and he roared: "I can't afford to pay for such a young lady. Get out of here and don't come back again."

Su Mingyu panicked and said hurriedly: "No! Boss, my elder brother can't speak. I'll ask him to apologize to you. I really need this job."

Wang Gang took Su Mingyu's arm and said, "Little sister, don't beg him. We don't want to keep you here, we have our own place to keep you. We don't care about this job either."

Then Wang Gang said to the boss: "Pay my little sister's salary quickly. If she loses even a penny, I will sue you. You don't want to do business in this supermarket."

The boss was trembling with anger. He opened the cash box angrily, took out a few cents and threw them on the table.

"Take the money and get out of here, I don't want to see you for a second."

Su Mingyu wanted to plead with the boss again, but Wang Gang firmly held her wrist, grabbed the money on the table and walked out of the supermarket.

When the two of them left the supermarket, the boss was still cursing behind them, but Wang Gang ignored them, hailed a taxi and left.

Sitting in the car, Wang Gang and Su Mingyu didn't talk much. Finally, the driver, Master, took them to a big hotel.

Wang Gang entered the hotel with his sister. He didn't even look for a private room, so he found an empty seat in the lobby and asked the waiter to order five dishes, three meat and one vegetarian, plus an old hen soup.

"That's enough, that's enough. The two of us can't eat that much." Su Mingyu saw that Wang Gang was spending so much money and quickly stopped him from ordering any more.

Wang Gang sighed, returned the menu to the waiter, and urged her to quickly place the order and serve the food.

"Brother, you are living a good life in the United States. You can even invite your sister to a restaurant." Su Mingyu said with a smile.

Wang Gang was silent for a while and then said: "You should stop working part-time and concentrate on your studies. You don't have to worry about tuition and living expenses. I will pay for them."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! When Su Mingyu heard this, her eyes turned slightly red, but she held back the tears.

"I can work to support myself, I don't need you to worry about it."

Wang Gang said angrily: "I don't care about you, who cares about you, I am your big brother."

Su Mingyu chuckled and said: "Brother, you are in school now, how can you support me? Although my four-year college tuition is free, my living expenses are very expensive."

Wang Gang said: "I have found a job in the United States. Don't worry about money. Study hard, try to take the TOEFL exam, and study abroad in the United States if you have the opportunity."

Su Mingyu was stunned for a moment and said quietly: "Brother, do you still remember what you said to me before you left?"

Wang Gang said: "Of course I remember. You said you also wanted to study abroad. I have always kept this in mind."

Su Mingyu lowered his head and couldn't hold back the tears any longer.

"My parents would even sell their house for you to study abroad, but they won't even let me go to Qinghua University. Did they pick me up as their own?"

Su Mingyu seemed to want to pour out all the grievances she had suffered over the years. She kept crying and complained about Zhao Meilan and Su Daqiang while crying.

"My parents have doted on you and Su Mingcheng since they were young. They don't let you do anything, but they want me to learn to do housework. It's like a child laborer. Why?"

"In order to study abroad for you, mom sold my room without my consent, leaving me without a place to sleep."

"I clearly passed Qinghua University in the college entrance examination. Why did my mother only let me go to normal school?"

Wang Gang listened to Su Mingyu's scolding of her parents and felt that Zhao Meilan was too much towards her and Su Daqiang was too coward and had made his daughter miserable.

At this time, Goldfinger suddenly issued a task.

[An unfortunate childhood takes a lifetime to heal. As the eldest son of Su, you have the responsibility to make your sister happy. Complete the task and you will be rewarded with 1 free attribute point. 】

When Wang Gang heard about the Golden Finger mission, he murmured in his heart, what is happiness? For Su Mingyu, what is her happiness?

Su Mingyu, who was crying, naturally didn't know what was going on in Wang Gang's heart. After crying for a while, the depression in her heart became lighter and she felt much better.

The waiter also brought the dishes over at this time.

"You are crying and hungry! Eat quickly! You are much thinner than before I left." Wang Gang scooped a bowl of chicken soup for Su Mingyu and placed it in front of her.

"If you have any grievances in your heart from now on, tell me and I will help you."

Su Mingyu held the bowl with both hands, and the warm chicken soup made her feel a lot warmer.

"Brother, you seem to have changed." Su Mingyu looked at Wang Gang seriously and said:

"You seem to have become a different person. If your face hadn't changed, I would have thought you were not my eldest brother."
