Dad, this way!

At the exit of the airport, Su Mingcheng took Zhu Li and saw Su Daqiang dragging his suitcase shouting and waving.

Hearing the noise and seeing familiar faces, Su Daqiang couldn't help but speed up his pace. When he got closer, he ignored the suitcase and hugged his second son excitedly: Mingcheng, Dad misses you...

That expression, that tone, that action, it was extremely aggrieved. Julie behind her was covered in goosebumps, and she couldn't help but shudder, it was so numb. Getting tired of being so shameless is really terrible.

Su Mingcheng patted his father's back to comfort him: Okay, okay, Dad. You are all back. If my eldest brother doesn't support you, I will.

Hey, I didn't expect your eldest brother to be unreliable... Su Daqiang let go of his second son and said in disinterest, I've been on a plane for more than ten hours, and I'm hungry and sleepy. Go back, I need to rest.

Zhu Li stepped forward and said: Dad, Mingcheng said that you must have missed the food in your hometown after staying in the United States for a month. We have already booked a hotel and will take care of you.

Have you booked a hotel?

It's the one you love most. Su Mingcheng answered.

Then let's go quickly, I'm going to starve to death. Mingcheng, Lili, to tell you the truth, this is all I'm thinking about.

Su Mingcheng pulled the suitcase: Let's go, Dad. It will take us two hours to drive back from Shanghai. You can take a rest on the way. After dinner, I will take you to a sauna and go back to have a good sleep. Have a good sleep, okay?

Okay, okay, it has to be you Mingcheng, your elder brother and Mingyu are unreliable...

Oh, it's rare to hear you say good things to me, let's go, dad. Su Mingcheng couldn't laugh or cry, dragging his luggage and taking Su Daqiang out, got in the car, and returned to Gusu.

More than two hours later, in a restaurant in Suzhou, Su Daqiang, who had been confused in the car for two hours, devoured his food.

Mingcheng, Lili, you don't know, dad was ruined during this time in the United States. He didn't do anything when he got there, and he got sick. The United States is very good, but medical treatment is too expensive here. I just couldn't get used to it. I didn't go to the hospital or even to a small clinic, which charged hundreds of dollars, which is one or two thousand Chinese coins. I lost half my life and managed to get through it.

Also, I haven't eaten anything decent there. It's not as good as the food here. Your eldest brother and Wu Fei quarreled all day long and didn't have time to pay attention to me. Hey...

Seeing his son and daughter-in-law staring at him, Su Daqiang wiped his hands clean and sighed, speaking softly. Using his best method, he distorted the facts and added fuel to the story to depict the tragic situation of this old man. If strangers were told to listen, these three brothers and sisters of the old Su family would all be unfilial children who would suffer a thousand blows.

Hearing Su Daqiang talk in more detail than before during the phone call, even though he knew it was a bit exaggerated, Su Mingcheng still felt that Su Mingzhe didn't do what he did. After all, if these things hadn't happened, how could Su Daqiang have said that, and how could he gobble it up like that? He must have been treated harshly. It was Su Mingzhe who didn't take good care of him. How could he have the nerve to call and scold him before?

It's okay, Dad, I'm different from my brother. Just stay at my place in a down-to-earth manner. Lili and I will definitely respect you.

Julie followed and assured: Yes, Dad, you can rest assured with us. Also, the money we owe you will be paid back to you as soon as possible. Oh, by the way, Dad, we gave it to you a few days ago There’s fifteen thousand in that card, have you received it?”

Really? Su Daqiang looked up at the two of them and rolled his eyes: I am abroad, how can I see it, and this card is not in my name, so I know what the use of a password is.

Zhu Li understood and smiled: Dad, after you have a rest today, I will ask Mingcheng to take you to apply for a bank card tomorrow and transfer all the money into it. There will be mobile banking by then. If the balance changes, you can check it on your mobile phone. knew.

Then the relationship is good, let's do it like this. After saying that, Su Daqiang continued to eat with his head down, squeaking, squealing, it was so delicious.

Because they knew Su Daqiang was coming back, the two of them, who had been losing their appetite recently, ate a lot more when they heard the noise...

After eating for a while, Su Daqiang suddenly said: Hey, by the way, you guys call Mingyu. You have to tell her when I come back.

When Su Mingcheng heard the words 'Su Mingyu', he immediately took a deep breath impatiently and put down his chopsticks: Dad, why are you mentioning her? Look at her like that. When did she consider herself a member of the Su family? Look Does she recognize you? Especially last time in the hospital, look at her look, and that person named Wang, they hope you die soon...

Su Mingcheng! Zhu Li quickly hit Su Mingcheng: Dad is fine now. Look at what you said.

No, I'm not, dad, that's what I meant. I didn't curse you. Su Mingcheng quickly explained: Look at them, don't they just have two stinky money? Their tails are eager to fly up to the sky, pretending what.

Su Daqiang waved his hand: Okay, Mingcheng, please stop talking. Mingyu doesn't recognize me. It's really my father's fault. But she is my daughter anyway. I can't deny her.

No, Dad, she...

Stop talking, why don't you just make a phone call? If you don't call me, I will. Zhu Li was very kind to Su Daqiang, even her own parents were nothing more than that. While talking, he picked up the mobile phone on the table, flipped to Su Mingyu's phone number and called, but hung up after not saying more than three sentences.

Su Daqiang asked: What did Mingyu say?

She said she got it.

It's over? Didn't you say anything else?

Julie shook her head: I didn't say.

Su Mingcheng slapped the table: Dad, look what I said, she doesn't regard herself as a member of the Su family.

Su Daqiang sighed and continued to devour.

Zhu Li gave Su Mingcheng another bite: Eat yours quickly.

Although she didn't like Wang Yan, in her heart she felt that the old Su family, including herself, owed Su Mingyu, so she was reasonable. But Su Mingcheng didn't know what was going on. She exploded when she mentioned it. She couldn't understand why. She had talked about Su Mingcheng before, but every time they broke up on bad terms, she didn't want to talk about it anymore, so she just left it like that.

As for the issue of supporting Su Daqiang, there is definitely no dispute, and she has no complaints. After all, they spent the most money, including Su Mingyu's money from selling her body. If Su Mingzhe couldn't support him, it would be them.

After a meal, Zhu Li took a taxi home, and Su Mingcheng took Su Daqiang to the sauna. After washing themselves and feeling comfortable, they went to the hall to sit and relax.

Su Mingcheng came back after buying water, unscrewed the cap of the bottle thoughtfully, and handed it to his father who closed his eyes to relax: Come on, Dad, I've been steaming this for a long time to replenish water.

Su Daqiang's habitual Oh! started with emotion: It's better to be at home. How could I have been so comfortable during the month I went to the United States? When he said this, he completely forgot about the more than ten posts about food and scenic spots in his circle of friends that day. , I forgot about the 60-second voice speeches made by a group of old colleagues...

Stop feeling sad, dad. From now on, we will be in China and feel comfortable every day.

Su Daqiang laughed: It's comfortable. After drinking the water, he let out a sigh of satisfaction and leaned back against the wall with his eyes closed to rest.

After a moment of silence, Su Mingcheng smiled and said: Dad, you have more than 200,000 yuan in hand now, what are you going to do?

Huh? Su Daqiang's eyes that had just been closed opened, and he sat upright again and stared at Su Mingcheng with his big eyes: These are all dad's coffin books, Mingcheng. Aren't you thinking about dad's money? If that’s the case, then Dad won’t be able to survive.”

No, Dad, how can I care about your money? Besides, I still owe you money and haven't paid it back, right?

It's good to know. You, you better hurry up and return my money to me. Su Daqiang leaned back against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.

Dad, that's right. I think all your money is wasted in the bank.

Su Daqiang didn't even bother to argue, he waved his hands and said with a smile: That's nonsense. How can we waste money in the bank? I really think I'm an old fool.

Just think about it, dad, Lili and I provide for your food and drink, and you don't have much to spend money on. Isn't that money just a pile of waste paper sitting in the bank? Su Mingzhe said, That money is here The bank gives you interest, but how much is it? Besides, why does the bank give you interest? Isn't it lending your money to other people who use money? In comparison, the little interest they give you is insignificant. , a drop in the bucket. What is this called, Dad? This is called investment.

Seeing that Su Daqiang didn't move, Su Mingcheng continued to lie: What is investment, dad? Investment is money making money. The little interest the bank gives is nothing. Let me give you an analogy, dad. , just an example. Now, our company’s manager Zhou has built a factory. As for her, she doesn’t have enough money to run it, and she doesn’t want to take the risk alone. So what should we do? We have to find people to invest, and we have to crowdfund.”

In fact, there is no big risk in this matter. Let's invest this money in her. Then we will be the shareholders, and the shareholders will be the boss, and then we will wait for the dividends. One year to return the capital, two years to make money, and then We have been paying dividends for as long as we have. And as time goes by, the factory will develop. The more it develops, the more money we will pay, so our dividends will increase year by year.

What if, Dad, I mean what if. If you invest the more than 200,000 yuan in your hand into our manager Zhou's factory. In one year, you will get back the 200,000 yuan. Then in the first year We have all divided 200,000, and in the second year there will be more, 200,000, 300,000. At that time, it will be all about eating and drinking, sweating and sweating, and having a big meal if you want.

And by that time, there is no need for us to support you. You can buy a luxury house and drive a luxury car by yourself. Then you can find seven or eight nannies, one every day, and the same one every week. Dad, think about it, think about it carefully Think about it, what kind of life it was like...

When he heard 'buy a mansion', Su Daqiang opened his eyes. After hearing the whole thing, he thought about it for a while and felt that the second son's words were still empty. He did not respond, but stood up and said: Let's go, it's getting late. , let's go back. As soon as I relax now, I feel sleepy, I have to have a good sleep... As he spoke, he slowly got up and left.

After beeping for a long time, Su Mingzhe, who had done useless work, was not discouraged. He stood up and followed: Dad, I really didn't lie to you. This is a good thing as money begets money.

Su Mingcheng went out with his manager Zhou to see the factory just like in the original drama. I saw a few people working together, and the manager told him last week that he trusted him, so he took him there. He felt that this was a sure profit, so he took the initiative to participate in the investment. So it’s still like in the original play, 300,000 yuan needs to be raised. He felt that this was God's favor for him. After all, ordinary people couldn't see this kind of money picking up.

He has been studying it for a while. After all, three hundred thousand is not small money, and he doesn't just take it. Recently, the manager called me every day to urge me, but he still had no place to borrow money. Originally, he had been studying selling the car in the past two days, but today his father came back. He knew how much money his father had. As long as he persuaded him to pay, the remaining 80,000 would be solved.

So of course he would not give up this hope. He would give hard-hearted persuasion, present facts and reason, and make a big deal out of it. But it was a pity that Su Daqiang ignored him at all along the way...

The next day, Zhu Li took Su Daqiang to apply for a bank card, transferred the money in the original card to the new card, and taught him how to use mobile banking. As for why Su Mingcheng was not with him, it was because Su Daqiang said in front of Zhu Li that Su Mingcheng was worried about his money. That makes Su Mingcheng angry...

Wang Yan, Su Mingyu and Wang Lin, a family of three, returned to Suzhou. After resting at home for an afternoon, the three of them went to a restaurant that had been arranged in advance for dinner. After traveling around for a month, Su Mingyu and the little girl really wanted to eat local food in Gusu, so this time they went to a private chef with good reviews.

Looking at the little girl who turned her grief and anger into appetite, Wang Yan rubbed her little head: Eat slowly, no one is trying to compete with you, why are you still angry?

Humph. Wang Lin slapped away her father's comforting words with her greasy hands and ignored him.

Linlin, it's not that dad said you, you are a bit unreasonable. Wang Yan said while eating: I wanted to go out to play, but without your share, my mother still wanted you to go to school. But now that you are back, you Are you going to disown your father?

Wang Lin tilted her head and thought that this was indeed what happened, but she didn't want to come back. She felt a little aggrieved: I don't want to go to kindergarten.

Aren't all your friends waiting for you in kindergarten? You forgot about your friends after going out for a month? And you and your mother bought so many souvenirs and mailed them back, weren't you just to share them with your friends?

Seeing that the little guy was loose, Wang Yan delivered a fatal blow: Also, when you go to school, share your experience this month with your friends, they will definitely envy you. By then, you will be the first person in the kindergarten The most popular kid.”

Everyone is vain. Although children don’t have many concepts, there is one thing they know, and that is ‘do I have you or not’, which is great. Of course Wang Yan is not encouraging children to show off or be vain, but in a certain aspect, this is indeed a motivation for children to grow and is beneficial to their growth. Of course, there may be children who hurt other children on the way to their own children's growth. But there is no way, this is how uneven the world is. What's more, he, Wang, has been the one who envied others since he was a child, so of course he doesn't want his child to be the one in the corner.

Of course, even if his favorable conditions may only make Wang Lin envious of others less, she will still envy other children, and there is no way around it. There is always someone better than you, not only in material aspects. Moreover, a child's perspective is always weird. Who knows what's wrong with her? She may envy others who poop faster than her...

Hearing what her biological father said, Wang Lin stopped eating and thought seriously for a long time before tentatively asking: Is it true?

Of course, when did dad lie to you? Other children will definitely envy you and want to be friends with you. But the only thing is that you have to tell your story well.

I'm the best at telling stories. Wang Lin cocked her neck and finished speaking arrogantly. She ignored Wang Yan and Su Mingyu on the side and continued to eat, which was even more delicious.

This is what he should be good at, otherwise Wang Yan would be meaningless as a Chinese teacher. Looking at the little girl like that, she is probably thinking about how to say it. It will be easier to pretend to go to school tomorrow.

Su Mingyu was quite dissatisfied with Wang Yan's statement that she was a good person and deflected the conflict by saying that she would not let her children go out to play. But after all, it was about educating children, so she reluctantly accepted it.

Rolling his eyes, he was about to speak when the phone next to him rang. Holding back her words, she picked it up and took a look. It was Wu Fei who had sent a video call from Weixin. She immediately wiped her mouth with paper and then answered the call.

Hi, sister-in-law, hello, Xiaomi. Come on, Linlin, say hello to Xiaomi. Su Mingyu greeted the other side happily.

The little girl was obedient, poked her head over and said hello, then continued eating. She is very busy and has to think about how to pretend... to share her knowledge with the children.

Hearing this greeting, Wang Yan didn't know that the caller was Wu Fei. This call came at the right time.

Wu Fei's voice came from the mobile phone: Where are we playing? I won't disturb you, right?

Why bother? I just had dinner. Su Mingyu said with a smile: This video of yours came in time. We have just returned to Suzhou.

I just thought you guys shouldn't be outside at this point.

Su Mingyu put her mobile phone on the table and chatted with Wu Fei while eating, while Wang Yan looked at the little girl.

Again, as the days get more familiar, I don’t talk so much anymore. Wang Yan is not a talkative person. Although he is a good chatter, there is really no need to talk to his wife and children. He can just say whatever he wants. After all, it is not the same as before. What we are living now is life. Even if the family is eating and there is only the sound of clinking bowls and chopsticks, there is no embarrassment of the most afraid of the sudden silence of the air. The most important thing is that it's okay occasionally, but if it beeps all day long, he'll be annoyed. Especially a woman who has already succeeded and been with him for many years.

Although he, Wang, is a trash, he is not the kind of person who likes the new and hates the old. After all, after all these years, many have followed him for decades, and many have been sent away by him. It’s just that it inevitably loses its freshness and motivation.

A long time ago, Ip Man's daughter-in-law said it very well, when two couples are together, silence is better than sound. If you have nothing to say, don't say it. Endless dealing will only hurt the relationship more and is not conducive to the harmony of husband and wife and family.

As for Wu Fei, who was fine and just called Su Mingyu, Wang Yan thought that there was probably no one left. After all, I have been abroad for so many years, and I have basically lost all my domestic friends, and I can’t even talk to them together. Relatives and friends, basically all over the world, were either making small talk or borrowing money, and she didn't say anything about it. And those classmates abroad are either doing better than him, or they are busy.

She just wants to find someone to talk to now, and doesn't want to pretend to be so-called human beings. In this case, Su Mingyu, as someone who knows the inside story, is considered a relative, is reasonable and knows the basics, and is involved in it but not outside it, has become the best person to talk to and chat with.

After talking and laughing for a while, Su Mingyu said with a smile: Sister-in-law, I told you last time, since you have nothing to do, just come to my place for a few days. It's not good to stay at home all the time. It just so happens that you It can also relax. Besides, Linlin has wanted to play with Xiaomi for a long time. You bring her over and we can go shopping in Suzhou together. You have been abroad for so many years, but you have not been to Suzhou a few times with your children. Have fun. You just came back late. If you had come back earlier, we would have gone out together this month.

Thank you, Mingyu. I won't go. It's not good to take the trouble of taking care of the child and cause trouble to you.

Su Mingyu shook her head: What's the trouble? Linlin also misses Xiaomi, right? Linlin, come and say a few words to Xiaomi and persuade her.

The little girl ate a lot. Wang Yan wiped it twice as a token of his will, but it didn't work. At this moment, he had a big face, and his whole face came to the screen: Xiao Mi, do you want to come over and play with me? ?”

Xiaomi is a few months younger than Wang Lin, and she is not as outgoing as Wang Lin. She nodded and said warmly: I want to, but if mom doesn't go, there's nothing I can do.

Oh, you can come if you want. Wang Lin frowned and thought 'hmm' for a moment. Then she had an idea and said, I'm telling you, Xiaomi, if your aunt doesn't agree, then cry, cry hard.

Su Mingyu quickly hit the girl's little head and pushed it aside: Wang Lin, how can you teach Xiaomi like this? Wang Yan, please take care of her.

Xiao Mi, if you cry loudly, it will definitely work. The little girl was pushed aside, but she did not forget to continue her instructions. She was not afraid when her biological mother was angry. Instead, she made a face of slightly slightly, turned around and was about to thrust her oily face into her biological father's arms, begging for protection.

Wang Yan quickly reached out and grabbed the little girl's face, wiped it with a wet wipe in disgust, and then gave her a few symbolic spankings as punishment for bad ideas.

He couldn't laugh or cry at Wang Lin's words. He teaches children, of course, not just by asking the children to cry, but he will be satisfied if the conditions are met. But sometimes what she cries for is a reasonable request, so very few of it will be met. So based on the child's shallow experience, there is a high probability that it is the effect of crying, although it only succeeds rarely.

In addition, children nowadays are more knowledgeable and have more avant-garde ideas. It is probably a symposium or something held in the kindergarten to discuss this situation. I came up with such a bad idea... Of course, just cry. Occasionally speaking twice can also exercise the child's lung function.

Looking at the little girl who was not ashamed but proud of it, Wang Yan shook his head with a smile: Linlin, now you can give me advice. Dad knows that you cried on purpose before. So, You should think about what to do in the future now.

Wang Lin was unhappy. For her, this was really a big problem... She was even busier. On the one hand, she had to think about how to share her knowledge with the children tomorrow, and at the same time, she had to think about how to behave like a baby and beg her biological father in the future. She was so tired. .

After hearing Wang Lin's words, Xiaomi's eyes lit up and she immediately turned to look at Wu Fei...

Su Mingyu couldn't laugh or cry because of what she was doing: Sister-in-law, just come and save Xiaomi from crying.

Let's have a look again. As he spoke, Wu Fei noticed that the child started to pout, and said quickly: Mingyu, I've been talking for so long and it's delayed your meal. I won't disturb you anymore. Goodbye. .”

Hey, sister-in-law... Su Mingyu didn't say anything. The other party had hung up the call. Just now she saw the tears in Xiaomi's eyes. Putting down the phone, he turned to look at the culprit who was frowning and shook his head in a funny way...

The next day, life is back on track, going to work, going to school, bragging and competing with others.

Su Daqiang was really tired from running for a long time, so he slept comfortably until after eight o'clock. When he came out, his son and daughter-in-law had already gone to work, and there was still breakfast bought in the morning on the table.

After Su Daqiang finished washing, he stepped forward and took a look at the simple white porridge, steamed buns, and pickles that were still warm. He didn't choose anything, so he sat at the dining table and started eating.

While eating, Su Daqiang thought about the house. When he was in the United States, his eldest son told him that he wanted to buy a house, which made him think about it. But when he returned to China, his second son also told him about investing in a luxury house. It doesn't matter whether he invests or not, the main thing is that this mansion really speaks to his heart.

After all this tossing, it’s okay if no one mentions it, but once I say it, I can’t stop thinking about it. Ever since he was thinking about the house, he felt uncomfortable staying at his son's house. Grass grew in his heart, and the kitten scratched his heart, which was very itchy. After all this trouble, the eldest son couldn't figure it out, the second son was still worried about his money, the daughter still didn't recognize him, and he didn't want to return to the old house. It's really a good way to go out and live on your own and find a nanny...

After studying and studying, Su Daqiang also finished his breakfast. I suppressed this idea for the time being, packed up and went out for a walk to eat. Walk a hundred steps after a meal and live to be ninety-nine. He doesn't expect to live to ninety-nine, but ninety-seven or eight is not enough? You can just jump around for a few more years and live a good life.

After going out for a stroll, I went to a nearby lottery station and played a lottery ticket. Afterwards, I exchanged a few words with the person selling the lottery tickets, concealing the fact that I was going back to China. I went out and continued walking in a bad mood. When he left, he was very serious. Although he had already thought of today's scene, he still felt embarrassed when he was asked about it. What could he do if his son failed to live up to his expectations. But it's still better than a bunch of provinces with people who haven't even been out a few times. No matter how long he stays, he has also traveled across the ocean...

In recent years, the national real estate market has developed rapidly, and housing prices have increased year by year, which has naturally led to a booming intermediary business. Various intermediary companies gather together. In first- and second-tier cities with high housing prices, as long as it is not too remote, there will be one agency operating near a community, and there are even two or three agencies. Anyway, around the community, there are houses within two miles. , there are at least four or five or six intermediary stores.

As the old saying goes, Susu, as a front-row city in the country, has developed quite well in the real world, and now there is the rise of Longteng in the local area, including the gathering of various top Internet and industrial companies under it, driving regional development. There is no doubt about his ability. So one can only imagine how the property market will develop as a result. The average price is 20,000, and good locations in urban areas generally cost 30,000 to 40,000. It is of course conceivable how the intermediaries got together.

Not long after Su Daqiang left, he stopped at the door of an agency store with a green background and yellow stripes and a neat storefront. Normally he wouldn't look at it, but now that he has something in mind, he will naturally pay attention. In this intermediary store, the glass facing the street also posted information on nearby housing. Su Daqiang could not move his feet even with a casual glance at each of the houses.

After looking carefully with his old eyes for a while, a young man wearing overalls, a tie and a work badge stood next to Su Daqiang in the store: Uncle, are you looking at the house?

Su Daqiang waved his hand subconsciously: I just took a look.

The agent guy smiled: Uncle, if you want to take a look, you can come in and take a look. There are many houses nearby, and the ones posted are just a few. Let's go in, sit down, have a glass of water, and I'll introduce them to you!

Ah? No, no, I'm still taking a walk... As he spoke, Su Daqiang kept glancing into the store.

No matter how stupid this intermediary guy is, he understands that he has an idea. Without saying a word, Su Daqiang was led in by the manager: Look, it doesn't cost anything. It doesn't matter if you don't buy it. I'm also good at business, so you can just do me a favor.

Although the guest on duty didn't seem to be able to make the decision, he didn't miss the opportunity. After the agency guy gave me a glass of water, he started looking for houses and building connections.

Su Daqiang heard that he didn't want to spend money, so what else could he say? I immediately expressed my little idea. I want a two- or three-bedroom apartment with a good location, convenient living, a room that can be rented, a new house, an elevator, and a good view. Finally, the agent selected a few houses and offered to take him to see them on site. There is definitely nothing wrong with this. Su Daqiang readily agreed. Firstly, he understood the situation, and secondly, it was just a walk in the park.

This time I saw five apartments. Since I didn’t travel around in the same place, I didn’t finish all five apartments until noon. Su Daqiang was extremely generous and offered to treat the agency guy to some noodles. Of course, the agency guy paid for the final payment...

After adding prestige to the agency guy and leaving his phone number, Su Daqiang thought about it in his mind and walked back slowly as he watched him walk away.

You don’t know if you don’t see it, but it looks really good. Whichever one he thinks is good and suitable for him to live in. Especially for the three-bedroom apartment, one room is for him to live in, another room is for the nanny, and the other room is used as a study. When he had nothing to do, he would write, draw, and read at home. Oh, it was so happy.

But this house is good everywhere, except that it is expensive. From the ones he looked at, the lowest was three million. Among them, his favorite one, a junior suite with an area of ​​more than 100 square meters, costs more than 4 million. He only has 200,000 in hand, which is an astronomical figure and difficult to deal with...

Thinking like this, Su Daqiang walked melancholy, researching how to make some money...

Wang Yan fanned his little wings to make things happen that didn't happen, and things that should have happened not to happen. But the butterfly effect is just a chain reaction caused by a small event, and it is not fantasy. The real thing is destiny.

It is destined that some people will eventually meet. Even if we don't meet today, we will meet tomorrow. If it doesn’t work tomorrow, it won’t work the day after tomorrow. If it doesn’t work the day after tomorrow, it won’t work the day after tomorrow. Anyway, it can be seen.

Opposite Su Daqiang, a fashionable old man wearing a cap, nose and eyes, and a casual woolen suit walked towards him. The pace is vigorous and the body is strong. When passing by Su Daqiang, he glanced at him inadvertently, then turned around and started to drift away. But suddenly, he remembered that the person he saw just now seemed to be an acquaintance. He immediately turned around and followed the absent-minded Su Daqiang. He glanced at the side a few times to identify him, and he confirmed that he knew him.

The old man immediately patted Su Daqiang on the shoulder: Hey, what are you thinking about?

Su Daqiang was thinking about how to make money when he was suddenly patted by someone, and he immediately exclaimed: Ouch. The people passing by were so frightened that they were three meters away, and they almost died on the spot.

After calming his beating heart, Su Daqiang looked at the old man in front of him unhappily: Who are you?

The old man took off his glasses and said with a smile, Don't you recognize me?

Oh~ Su Daqiang recognized the person, thought for a moment and called out his name: Old Nie, haha. After speaking, he went up to hug him and muttered: You said you should scare me. Jump, you are dressed like a young man, you really can’t recognize me without taking off your glasses.”

The two ended their embrace and stood aside so as not to block the way of others. Su Daqiang smiled and said, Old Nie, we haven't seen each other for a while.

Isn't that right? After all, it must have been... more than a year. After saying that, Old Nie was silent for a moment and looked at the smiling Su Daqiang: I heard that my brother and sister left quite suddenly?

Su Daqiang also fell silent, as if a painful memory came over him. He patted Lao Nie's arm and sighed before saying anything: It's good, it's not painful to leave...

Of course, this topic will not be continued. Lao Nie just asked casually. As he gets older, he will always think of himself when his peers pass away, and he often laments that his time is running out.

What are you doing?

Hey, I just looked at the house with the agency guy here, and I'm going back now.

Looking at a house? Lao Nie thought for a moment and looked at Su Daqiang in confusion: I met Lao He some time ago. Didn't he say you went to the United States? Why did you come back so soon?

Su Daqiang's expression remained unchanged and he said, What are you doing? Is something wrong?

I just finished eating there and wanted to go for a walk in the nearby park and bask in the sun. Why don't you tell me what's going on?

That's just right. I have nothing to do. Let's sit in the park and talk while walking. Su Daqiang followed Lao Nie as he walked on the road: I went to the United States before and stayed there for a while. After that, I'm not used to the local environment. I can't adapt to eating, drinking or anything else. And they can legally hold guns there, so I'm not used to it. It's not as good as ours over there, plus my little son shoots every day. When he called me and said he missed me, I asked my eldest son to buy me a plane ticket and send it back.

Oh, you're right. But it's not that dangerous. If you don't get close to others, it'll be fine just staying at your son's place. It's just that you're not used to the environment. There's really nothing you can do about it, but your reaction is too big. I've been here for so long and haven't recovered yet, tsk tsk. Lao Nie sighed and said, But I heard that each of your children is more capable than the other, so you are really lucky. Oh, that's right. Lao Su, which city in the United States is your eldest son in?

San Francisco! I still have a lot of photos from there on my phone. They were all taken when my son took me out to play. Let me show you. As he spoke, Su Daqiang took out his phone from his pocket and played with it.

Old Su, you don't have to work hard. I know San Francisco. Old Nie stopped him and laughed: There's the Golden Gate Bridge, Jiuquhua Street, and Fisherman's Wharf...

Su Daqiang was a little disdainful, waved his hand and said with a smile: Stop it, Lao Nie, you are talking as if you have been there.

Old Nie also laughed and said proudly: Of course I have been there. My daughter is in the United States. She took us on a self-driving tour of the United States last year, and we have been to all the bigger cities.

Upon hearing this, Su Daqiang, who was pretending to be wrong, was a little embarrassed: Ah, Xiaoping went to the United States?

Yes, I married an American husband, and my whole family is in New York, New York.

Lao Nie also emphasized that he understood what Su Daqiang meant by pretending to be competitive. Of course he couldn't get used to it. So isn't New York better than San Francisco?

People are like that. When they are young, they compare themselves across the board, such as wives, children, jobs, lives, garages, etc. When you get old, you will only be compared to children. But when I was young, I was comparing whose children studied well and whose children were sensible. Now I am comparing whose children are promising and who can make them, an old man, enjoy happiness.

After crushing Su Daqiang, Lao Nie stopped entangled and continued the previous topic: No, Lao Su, why are you looking at the house? Do you want to buy a house?

Hey, I just have nothing to do. I'm hanging around with the guy from the agency. Su Daqiang said with a smile: But I do have this idea. After all, living with my son always affects them, so I just want to inquire about the situation.

That's good. After all, the child has a future. Otherwise, if the housing prices are so high now, who can afford it?

Su Daqiang smiled reservedly: It's not that far, I just have this idea now, just take a look, just take a look. He knew this well, and now he would like to hide the little truth revealed in a low-key manner.

Lao Nie asked: Hey, we've just been chatting, have you had lunch for lunch? If not, can I eat some with you?

Eat, eat, I just had noodles with the young man from the agency. I was supposed to pay for it, but the young man paid for it. You said I was looking at a house and had a meal together, haha...
