Su Daqiang's original plan was to force Wang Gang out of filial piety and take him to live in the United States.
As a result, Wang Gang showed him some news about gun battles in the United States, and he was frightened out of his mind.
"Is America so chaotic? Can you shoot and kill people on the street?" Su Daqiang threw Wang Gang's phone on the sofa in fear.
"Actually, it's okay. Only chaotic communities are dangerous. We live near Silicon Valley and it's quite safe. As long as we don't run around, we won't encounter gunfights." Wang Gang picked up his cell phone and explained.
"Dad, if you really want to go to the United States, I will apply for a visa for you after the funeral. If you are not used to living there, you can come back again."
Su Daqiang's face was slightly moved, but he was still afraid of death.
"I went to the United States before, didn't I apply for a visa?"
"The tourist visa you applied for at that time cannot stay for a long time. This time I will apply for a new visa for you to visit relatives. You can stay for up to ten years. You can just come back and apply for it again after ten years." Wang Gang explained.
"It's so troublesome that you can only live here for ten years?" Su Daqiang asked in confusion.
"Dad, you don't have a green card in the United States, so you can't stay there for a long time. Ten years is already a long time. It's not complicated to apply for a new visa. Just ask Mingcheng to help you apply for it." Wang Gang said.
When Su Daqiang heard that going to the United States was so troublesome and dangerous, he hesitated.
Wang Gang consoled him: "Dad, don't worry. If you don't get used to living here, just come back. If not, you have three children. If you live in each family for a while, you can relax."
Su Mingyu was fine after hearing this, but Su Mingcheng changed his face a little, but Zhu Li pulled his sleeve and asked Wang Gang to finish.
"Dad, I have another plan. I will buy a house in Suzhou and hire a nanny to take care of you, which will save you the trouble of running around." Wang Gang said.
"Buy a house!" Su Daqiang said curiously: "Houses in Su City are not cheap now. The unit price is 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. A house costs several million!"
Wang Gang smiled and said: "Isn't the old house still there? If it doesn't work, sell it and get a new one. If there is not enough money, I will make up for it."
"Selling the old house is not possible!" Su Daqiang jumped up and said: "The old house is the root of the Su family and cannot be sold!"
Wang Gang said in surprise: "You don't want to live in the old house, wouldn't it be a waste to leave it there? Then we will get a new house, a three-bedroom house. When I take Wu Fei and Xiaomi back to China, I will have a place to live."
When Su Daqiang heard this, he thought it was okay. Once the old house was sold and a new house was bought, who could the name on the house book be?
"The old house can't be sold, so I'd better accept your first plan and live in the United States for half a year first." Su Daqiang said immediately.
How could Wang Gang not guess what Su Daqiang was thinking? Although he felt uncomfortable, he didn't show it on his face. There was nothing he could do when he met such parents.
"Okay, it's settled then. I'll handle the formalities for you after the funeral. But where will you stay during this time?" Wang Gang asked.
Su Daqiang turned to look at Su Mingcheng and said, "How about I stay here for two more days?"
"No problem!" Su Mingcheng agreed immediately without looking at Zhu Li's face.
Wang Gang said to Zhu Li: "Sister-in-law, please take care of dad these two days. When I return to the United States and complete the procedures, Mingcheng will take dad to the embassy in Shanghai to apply for a visa, and then I will take dad to the United States."
"Brother, as you said, taking care of dad is what we children should do. Dad can stay here as long as he wants." Although Zhu Li was unwilling in her heart, she couldn't refute Su Ming's words in Chengdu.
Men's face.
Wang Gang nodded, and then said: "That's it for now. Let's talk about mom's funeral."
"What happened to the funeral?" Su Mingcheng glanced sideways at Su Mingyu on the balcony and said, "Didn't Su Mingyu arrange everything?"
"Yes, Mingyu has found a funeral company and arranged a cemetery, but I think so! Mom's funeral cannot be Mingyu's business alone, and she cannot pay for the funeral and cemetery alone."
Su Mingcheng said angrily: "She is rich and willing, but what do we care about her?"
Before Wang Gang could speak, Zhu Li patted Su Mingcheng on the shoulder.
"Mingcheng, you can't say that. It's right that Mingyu wants to show filial piety to our mother, but as our mother's sons, we can't just show nothing," Wang Gang said.
"Dad, what do you think?" Wang Gang turned to Su Daqiang and asked.
Su Daqiang faced the wall directly, lowered his head and said, "You brothers and sisters can discuss it among yourselves. I won't interfere."
Wang Gang had long expected that Su Daqiang would say this, and said to Su Mingcheng: "Mingcheng, our mother loved you the most before, don't you want to do something for her in the end?"
Su Mingcheng was so excited that he wanted to speak, but Zhu Li stopped him directly.
"Brother, you are right. Mingyu cannot pay for the funeral and cemetery alone. Our three families should share it equally, with each family paying one-third."
Wang Gang looked at Mingyu and asked, "Mingyu, what do you think?"
Mingyu said: "Brother, I have no objection, I will listen to you."
Wang Gang nodded and said: "That's what I think. I am the eldest son of Su and your eldest brother. I should pay the big share. I will pay half of all the funeral expenses, and Mingcheng and Mingyu will pay a quarter of the remaining half."
"Mingcheng, do you think this is fair?"
Wang Gang had already mentioned this, and it would be really unfilial for Su Mingcheng if he didn't contribute any more money.
"I don't have any objections. I just listen to big brother." Su Mingcheng finally said.
"Okay, let's settle it like this. Mingyu will go back and list the funeral expenses in detail." Wang Gang agreed.
Su Mingyu has no objection.
Wang Gang walked up to Su Daqiang, smelled the smell on his body, frowned and said: "Dad, how long has it been since you took a shower? You already smell!"
Su Daqiang said: "Since your mother's accident until now, how can I be in the mood to take a bath?"
Wang Gang frowned and said, "You can't attend Mom's funeral in this state and make your relatives and friends laugh. I'll take you to take a shower and change clothes."
Su Daqiang was very cooperative this time and nodded directly in agreement.
"Then take me back to my old house to get some clothes."
"I don't have a domestic driver's license. Mingyu, please take us back!" Wang Gang looked at Su Mingyu and said.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Brother, let me see you and dad off!" Su Mingcheng stood up and said.
"No, you and your siblings have worked hard these days taking care of dad. Take a good rest. I'll take dad outside to take a shower, have a meal by the way, and come back in the evening." Wang Gang decided.
Su Mingcheng no longer insisted, he was indeed a little tired.
When Wang Gang and Su Mingyu took Su Daqiang out, Su Mingcheng blamed Zhu Li and said, "Lili, why did you agree so readily just now? Our family doesn't have much savings."
Zhu Li was disappointed with Su Mingcheng and said: "Su Mingcheng, that's your mother's funeral! I really want my eldest brother and Mingyu to pay all the money! You have to save some face."
Su Mingcheng muttered: "My eldest brother is making money in the United States, and Su Mingyu is doing well, what's the matter with giving some money?"
Zhu Li sighed and said: "You don't think it's embarrassing, but I think it's embarrassing. How can I raise my head in front of my eldest brother and Mingyu in the future? I tell you Su Mingcheng, our family must contribute a share of this money!"
"Okay, okay, you have the final say, but how much money does our family have?" Su Mingcheng asked.
Zhu Li has always been in charge of the money in the family. Su Mingcheng turned in his monthly salary and only left some pocket money.
Julie is an accountant and is sensitive to numbers. Of course she knows how much her family has in savings.
"The family still has 230,000 yuan, which should be enough."
Su Mingcheng asked doubtfully: "Does your family have that much money?"
Zhu Li rolled her eyes and said: "Our combined salary is more than 10,000 yuan per month. After being married for so many years and having no children, the savings of 230,000 yuan is already very little."
Su Mingcheng thought about it. He and Zhu Li were both not very good at living. They didn't work together at home and ordered takeout all day long. They also had brand-name clothes and bags. It was already amazing that they could save 230,000 yuan.
"I originally wanted to pay off the mortgage in advance for this money, but now I can only postpone it until later." Zhu Li said regretfully.
"Don't worry, my wife, I will work hard in the future and get a promotion and a salary increase so that you can live a good life."
Su Mingcheng hugged his wife, turned on the sweet talk mode, and soon coaxed Julie into confusion.
On the other side, Su Mingyu drove Wang Gang and Su Daqiang to the Su family's old house. The car stopped at the entrance of the alley, and the three of them walked in slowly.
The Su family's old house was more dilapidated than Wang Gang remembered, and the surrounding walls were covered with moss.
Wang Gang asked Su Daqiang to go into the house to pack his luggage. He and Su Mingyu stood in the yard and remembered the past.
Later, Su Mingyu entered the house to see how Su Daqiang was doing, and then Wang Gang heard a strange scream from Su Mingyu.
"Dad, what are you hiding?"
As soon as Wang heard the sound and entered the room, he saw Su Mingyu snatching a bankbook from Su Daqiang and bringing it over. When he opened it, his expression changed.
"Dad, why do you and mom only have 40,000 yuan in savings?"
Su Daqiang shrank his neck, turned his face to the wall, and said nothing.
