Blackening starts from the golden years
Chapter 397
After watching Su Mingyu leave, Su Mingzhe looked at Su Daqiang who was happily packing new clothes in the living room and said with a smile:
"Well, Dad, look at all these new clothes, do you want to try them on?"
Not only Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li felt embarrassed, Su Mingzhe also felt a little embarrassed. He was the eldest brother who had returned from the United States and the eldest son of the Su family. He originally had the intention of returning home in glory. In front of Su Daqiang, Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li, his image of returning home in glory was very stable. But when facing Su Mingyu, it was a little unstable. He could not suppress Su Mingyu at all. How could he, the eldest son of the Su family who had returned from the developed United States, feel embarrassed?
Intellectually, of course, he hopes that his brothers and sisters are capable and rich, but in his dark heart, he hopes that Su Mingyu is incapable and poor, just like Su Mingcheng, who holds him, the big brother who just returned from the United States, in high esteem, respects him in everything, listens to him, and follows his lead as the eldest son of the Su family.
Rather than saying that Su Mingzhe wants to shoulder the burden of the Su family, it is better to say that he has a problem. He loves to show off and is vain. This is a common problem for many Chinese people living abroad. Even if they are poor and destitute abroad, they still want to show off and save face when they return to China. Just like Su Mingzhe, he would rather let his wife and children suffer living abroad, and he wants to put on a brave face in China.
Closer to home.
While packing his new clothes, Su Daqiang smiled happily and said:
"I have to take a shower before trying."
"also."
"Then I'll go take a shower first."
"Hey, hey."
As he spoke, Su Mingzhe helped Su Daqiang take off his coat, watched him take a shower, and then helped him pack the new clothes that Su Mingyu had bought.
"Brother, let me do it."
"Okay, it's okay."
Su Mingcheng was still sitting there sulking, and Zhu Li came over to help Su Mingzhe put away the new clothes on the sofa.
She picked up a piece of clothing and looked at it. When she saw the price on the label was 3999, she couldn't help but exclaimed:
"Wow, this one costs 3999. Mingyu is really willing to spend money on dad. She bought such an expensive piece. My parents have never worn such nice clothes."
Su Mingcheng was very upset to hear this, and he said angrily:
"Isn't it just a little bit of money? Why is she showing off?"
"Mingcheng, stop talking."
Looking at Su Mingcheng, Su Mingzhe advised:
"Mingyu, this is good."
"She is an ungrateful person."
Su Mingcheng said angrily:
"Our mom is so nice. Has she ever bought our mom a piece of clothing in all these years?!"
Hearing Su Mingcheng say this, Zhu Li couldn't help but look at him. It seemed that her husband had never bought a piece of clothing for his parents, right?
However, her husband is very good to her parents and is very filial. He often gives them cigarettes, alcohol, and various nutritional supplements, which makes Zhu Li very satisfied. As for whether Su Mingcheng buys things for his parents in private, Zhu Li is not sure. However, since he is so filial to her parents, he should be better to his own parents, right?
At this time, Su Mingzhe frowned slightly and said:
"This time when I returned to China, I found that Mingyu has indeed changed a lot."
After saying this, he sighed softly and looked very disappointed.
"right?"
Hearing that elder brother Su Mingzhe also mentioned Su Mingyu, Su Mingcheng became even more angry:
"I know everything. She just hates our mom because she didn't let her get admitted to Tsinghua University."
Hearing Su Mingcheng say this, Su Mingzhe couldn't help but frown slightly. His mother was partial to him. Back then, he stayed at home for more than two years and failed the American university entrance exam twice. He finally got in the third time, but it cost 150,000 yuan a year. His mother sold the house to support him. The room she sold was the one where Su Mingyu lived. As a result, Su Mingyu had to sleep in the same room with her parents. She was in her third year of high school at the time, which seriously affected her studies. But even so, her grades were still among the top ten in the school.
As for Su Mingcheng, his college entrance examination score did not reach the second-tier line, but his mother still spent a lot of money to send him to college. After he graduated, she spent money to use her connections to find him a good job, and also gave him money to go on a graduation trip with his classmates.
But when it comes to Su Mingyu, her mother's heart is completely biased. She gave Su Mingyu two choices, either to go to a free teachers' college, or to follow her to the hospital to apply for a nurse job. Su Mingyu cried and begged her, but she remained indifferent. She could spend 150,000 yuan a year to let her eldest son Su Mingzhe study in the United States, and she could give money to her second son Su Mingcheng to let him go out to travel with his classmates, but she had no money for Su Mingyu to go to college.
The mother and daughter had an argument, and finally Su's mother said:
"I raised you up, you should be grateful and not be ungrateful."
Su Mingyu responded directly:
"You gave birth to me, so you have to raise me, don't just seek pleasure!"
This sentence probably touched Su's mother's sore spot, and she slapped Su Mingyu hard. From that time on, Su Mingyu left the Su family and no longer had any financial dealings with the Su family. She worked to support herself.
Su's mother is also a woman, and an "ambitious woman" who wants to settle in the United States, but why does she insist on stopping her daughter Su Mingyu from making progress?
I'm afraid this is no longer an issue of favoring boys over girls, but rather Su's mother is venting her anger and seeking revenge. She was unable to go to the United States because she was pregnant with Su Mingyu, but is this really the truth?
Su's mother ran away with another man, and later came back alone, pregnant with Su Mingyu. Could Su Mingyu be that man's daughter?
Could it be that the reason why Su’s mother didn’t go to the United States was that the man abandoned her and went to the United States alone?
Su's mother hates that man, so she also hates his daughter Su Mingyu. She wants Su Mingyu to be like her, unable to realize her dreams and only able to live the same life as she is now. Is this possible?
As for why Su Daqiang said Su Mingyu was his daughter, on the one hand it was because Su Daqiang was a coward, and on the other hand it might also be because Su Daqiang was kind in his heart and he didn't want to hurt Su Mingyu.
Only Su's mother and Su Daqiang know the truth of the matter.
Although Su Daqiang is a coward, a drama queen and has many shortcomings, at least he is not a bad person. Su's mother, Zhao Meilan, is the most vicious person. She married Su Daqiang in order to move to the city, but ran away with another man in order to go to the United States, leaving behind Su Daqiang and their two sons. Later, when she could not go to the United States, she came back alone, and she came back with a big belly.
After giving birth to Su Mingyu, she treated her three children seriously differently, especially her youngest daughter, Su Mingyu. She was not fit to be a wife or a mother. Her sudden death while playing mahjong seemed like retribution.
Closer to home.
At this time, Su Daqiang shouted in the bathroom:
"Mingzhe, come and help me."
"Hey, good."
Su Mingzhe agreed, put down the clothes in his hands, and ran to the bathroom.
Soon, the conversation between Su Mingzhe and Su Daqiang came from the bathroom:
"Dad, how long have you been wearing this dress? I think this is the dress I bought for you when I went back to China last time, right?"
"Hey, old clothes are comfortable to wear. Besides, your mom manages the family's money, so how can I afford to buy new clothes?"
"Then Mingcheng..."
The voice suddenly became quieter, obviously not wanting Su Mingcheng and Zhu Li in the living room to hear it. Su Mingcheng didn't care, but Zhu Li felt very embarrassed. She looked at Su Mingcheng who was still sitting there and said angrily in a low voice:
"Su Mingcheng, what's wrong with you? Haven't you ever bought clothes for your dad?"
"I thought my mom bought it for him, but I didn't know he always wore hand-me-downs."
Hearing Su Mingcheng say this, Zhu Li frowned and asked:
"Have you ever bought clothes for your mother?"
“Yes.”
Su Mingcheng said with some guilt.
"When did you buy it? How come I didn't know?"
"At the funeral home I didn't..."
Zhu Li opened her eyes slightly wide, she looked at Su Mingcheng, not knowing what to say. Su Mingcheng probably also felt guilty, and slowly shut up.
Looking at him, Julie said angrily:
"After I finish my mom's funeral, I'll take my dad to the mall to buy clothes."
"Why buy so many clothes?"
After taking a look at the clothes on the sofa, Su Mingcheng said:
"Su Mingyu has a lot of money. Didn't she buy so many new clothes for Dad? Besides, Dad is going to the United States soon. How much trouble will it take to buy so many clothes to take to the United States?"
After glaring at Su Mingcheng, Zhu Li said:
"Mingyu is Mingyu, and we are us. That's settled."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
……
On the other side, Su Mingyu's house.
After taking a shower, Su Mingyu walked into the study. She sat down at the desk, opened the laptop on the table with one hand, and called her assistant with the other hand.
Soon, the call was connected.
"Hello, boss."
"Xiao Xin, tell the HR department to pay Lao Ni six months' salary when he is fired."
"But the company's regulations stipulate that dismissed employees can only be paid three months' salary at most."
"I know that the salary for the other three months will be paid from my personal account."
After that, Su Mingyu hung up the phone. She put down her phone and chatted with a person nicknamed Angel on her laptop:
"When will you arrive in Suzhou tomorrow morning?"
"Can you make it to your mother's funeral at seven in the morning?"
"Yes, are you a man or a woman?"
"Female, what about you?"
"male."
Looking at the computer screen, Su Mingyu couldn't help but smile. Angel was an internet friend she met by chance on the Internet. He helped her solve many difficult problems. As time went by, they became good friends.
However, they didn't know each other's name, or whether they were a boy or a girl. Su Mingyu only knew his nickname was Angel and her nickname was Mingyu. Although Angel said he was a girl, Su Mingyu knew that the other party must be a boy. It was just that the way they chatted was so relaxed, just chatting nonsense.
They are both friends and strangers. Su Mingyu can confide some of her inner thoughts to the angel. There are some things that she has been holding in her heart and can't tell anyone. It is a rare opportunity for her to confide in the angel.
On the computer screen, Su Mingyu continued typing:
"Have you booked a hotel yet?"
"No, I plan to stay at a friend's house."
"Do you have any friends in Suzhou?"
"Yes, her name is Mingyu."
"Get lost, I'm a man."
"I know, what does it matter?"
"Why did you use the word she instead of he?"
"Because...I made a typo."
After chatting for a while, Su Mingyu smiled and typed:
"I don't want to chat with you anymore. I'm going to sleep. I'll pick you up at the airport tomorrow. Good night."
"Okay, good night." Closing the laptop, Su Mingyu smiled, got up and went to the bedroom, lay down on the bed and began to sleep. At night, she had a strange and confusing dream. In the dream, her mother did not allow her to go to college, so she ran away from home. She was an eighteen-year-old girl, handing out flyers outside, working as a promoter in a supermarket, and working as a waitress in a restaurant. She worked desperately to make money, working several jobs by herself.
The dream changed, and she went to the airport to pick up Angel, who was a handsome man. At night, Angel stayed in her house, and they drank a lot of wine. Then, naturally, she and Angel had an intimate relationship. She was pressed under Angel and tried hard to cater to him.
This dream was very real, but Su Mingyu knew clearly that it was just a dream. She didn't want to wake up from the dream because the angel was so gentle and he gently soothed her wounded heart.
"Hmm~"
In her waking dream, Su Mingyu groaned.
……
The next morning, an alarm suddenly sounded, Su Mingyu woke up, she opened her eyes and sat up from the bed. Thinking of the absurd dream last night, Su Mingyu couldn't help but ruffle her hair with both hands, muttering to herself:
"I'm really crazy. Have I been single for too long and am missing a man?"
After scratching her hair randomly again, Su Mingyu got out of bed, took a shower, put on the black skirt she had just bought, picked up her bag, left home, and drove to the airport.
……
Suzhou Airport.
Su Mingyu was standing there in a black dress, looking around. At this moment, Yuan Xudong came towards her, pushing a suitcase. When their eyes met, he smiled and said:
"Mingyu?"
"Angel?"
Looking at Yuan Xudong, who was wearing a black casual suit, Su Mingyu smiled and said:
"I knew you were a man, but I didn't expect you to be so handsome."
"is it?"
Looking at Su Mingyu, Yuan Xudong smiled and said:
"Thanks for the compliment, but I hope you can see my inner beauty. Also, you are beautiful too."
Rolling her eyes, Su Mingyu smiled and said:
"Okay, stop flattering me. I know what I look like."
As she spoke, she reached out to take Yuan Xudong's suitcase and said:
"Let me hold it for you."
"No, I can take it myself."
"Okay, this way."
Su Mingyu did not insist. She led Yuan Xudong out of the airport and walked to the parking lot. She opened the trunk and Yuan Xudong put the suitcase in.
Then, she drove Yuan Xudong straight to the funeral home. Her mother's funeral was handed over to her eldest brother, and she just had to attend.
……
funeral parlor.
Many people came to the funeral, including Su’s relatives and friends, neighbors, and people from Zhao Meilan’s mother’s family.
Yuan Xudong and Su Mingyu were naturally there too. When Su Mingzhe saw Yuan Xudong, he was obviously stunned for a moment. He walked over and said a few words to Yuan Xudong. He learned that Yuan Xudong was actually Su Mingyu's American netizen. He couldn't help but think it was really a coincidence.
Now was not the time to talk, so he spoke a few words to Yuan Xudong, and asked Su Mingyu beside him to treat Yuan Xudong well, and then he went to preside over the funeral.
First there was a memorial service, then the body was cremated. After Zhao Meilan's ashes were placed in the urn, the second son Su Mingcheng walked in front holding Zhao Meilan's portrait, and the eldest son followed him holding the urn. Behind them came Su Mingyu supporting Su Daqiang, Zhu Li supporting her mother, and Yuan Xudong walked at the end. Beside him were Zhao Meilan's younger brother Zhao Zheng and his family, and behind them came the Su family's relatives, friends, and neighbors. A group of people walked out of the funeral home.
"All family members please get on the bus in order. The eldest and second sons please stay behind. The rest of the family members can get on first. Come one by one, everyone."
The staff of the funeral home arranged for people to get on the car. Su Mingcheng and Su Mingzhe were waiting on the side. At this time, Su Mingyu's cell phone rang. She saw that it was a call from her master Lao Meng. She hurried to the side to answer the phone. Lao Meng was not only her master, benefactor, but also her boss. She could not be where she is today without Lao Meng's support. Therefore, she had to answer Lao Meng's call. Something must have happened in the company, otherwise, Lao Meng would not call her easily.
Watching Su Mingyu making the phone call, Su Mingcheng was filled with rage. Last night, his father Su Daqiang took a shower and changed into new clothes bought by Su Mingyu at home. He was extremely happy. Plus, he was grinning from ear to ear because he could go to the United States. This made Su Mingcheng extremely angry. His mother had just died, and his father was so happy?
He couldn't get angry at the old man. He had been holding back his anger all night. Now he saw Su Mingyu talking on the phone about work. Her mother died, but she was not sad at all. Su Mingcheng couldn't suppress his anger at all. He handed his mother's portrait to Zhu Li next to him and walked straight towards Su Mingyu.
"You hung up the phone!"
Su Mingcheng yelled at Su Mingyu.
"Boss Meng, I will take responsibility for this matter. I'm not in a position to answer the phone right now. I'll hang up first."
After saying that, Su Mingyu hung up the phone, put the phone in her pocket, looked at Su Mingcheng and said:
"Today is Mom's funeral, I don't want to argue with you."
After saying that, Su Mingyu was ready to get in the car, but Su Mingcheng couldn't let her go. He didn't care about the occasion and stood in front of Su Mingyu and shouted loudly:
"You still know that today is Mom's funeral? Su Mingyu, if you don't want to come, you don't have to come. Don't make trouble here. You can leave. Anyway, you are not qualified to attend Mom's funeral!"
"Why am I not qualified?"
Looking at Su Mingcheng, Su Mingyu directly said to him:
"I bought the cemetery and I paid for the funeral. You are so filial, have you ever paid a penny since Mom passed away?"
(Su Mingzhe said he would pay, but Su Mingyu had already paid.)
Hearing Su Mingyu say this, Su Mingcheng exploded. He hated it most when people talked to him about money. At this moment, he looked at Su Mingyu angrily and said:
"What's wrong with you giving a little money? Did mom raise you in vain? Shouldn't you give money? Have you shed a tear since mom passed away? Have you ever felt sad? What's wrong with giving a little money?"
Seeing Su Mingcheng, who was obviously furious, Su Mingyu directly said:
"You are a grown man in your thirties, and you spend all day squandering your parents' hard-earned money. Aren't you ashamed?"
"When did I ever plunder my parents' hard-earned money?"
"Don't you know it clearly in your heart?"
"I don't know, who told you that?"
"Why, you dare not admit it?"
"Tell me clearly, when did I ever plunder my parents' hard-earned money?"
Having said that, Su Mingcheng started fighting with Su Mingyu directly. He kept pushing and pulling Su Mingyu, just like before, he would fight when he got angry.
"Mingcheng!"
Seeing that Su Mingcheng and Su Mingyu were actually fighting, Su Mingzhe hurried over, Zhu Li followed him, Yuan Xudong also came over, and everyone else looked over here, as if they were watching a monkey show, and saw Su Mingcheng yelling at Su Mingyu.
"Su Mingyu, please explain clearly to me, when did I ever plunder my parents' hard-earned money?"
"Su Mingcheng, don't be so shameless. How did you buy that house? How did you buy that car?"
"Su Mingyu, has it been a long time since I last hit you?"
"Mingcheng, let Mingyu go."
Seeing that Su Mingcheng was about to hit Su Mingyu, Su Mingzhe quickly put the urn on Su Mingyu's car, and then hugged Su Mingcheng.
"Su Mingyu, you are not from the Su family, you are a bastard, get out of here, get out!"
"Mingcheng!"
Zhu Li also quickly pulled Su Mingcheng. Su Mingcheng was already furious at this time and started cursing at Su Mingyu. If Su Mingzhe and Zhu Li hadn't pulled him hard, he would have definitely rushed up and hit Su Mingyu.
Yuan Xudong walked to Su Mingyu's side. He knew that although Su Mingyu looked calm, she was probably furious in her heart. It was just that she was calmer than Su Mingcheng.
All the relatives, friends, and neighbors were looking at this side, and no one came to dissuade him. Su Daqiang sat silently in the bus, ignoring the discussions around him, and held the portrait of Zhao Meilan that Zhu Li gave him.
"Let's go, ignore him."
Yuan Xudong said beside Su Mingyu. After looking at Su Mingcheng, Su Mingyu said nothing and turned around to leave. But Su Mingcheng was still cursing there, and the curses became more and more nasty and vicious.
"Su Mingyu, you are just jealous that mom loves me and my elder brother. You are a bastard that no one wants. Get out of here. Get away from here. You are not a member of our Su family!"
"Mingcheng, stop talking."
Su Mingzhe pulled Su Mingcheng and tried to persuade him. He did not dare to slap his mad brother twice, so he just kept trying to persuade him. Unfortunately, it was useless. Su Mingcheng was still cursing at him, making a fool of himself among relatives, friends and neighbors.
Stimulated by Su Mingcheng's words, Su Mingyu turned around and looked at Su Mingzhe and said:
"Brother, let him go. I wonder what he dares to do to me."
As she said this, she looked at Su Mingcheng who was like a mad dog and sneered:
"You are still the same as before, you are like a mad dog who wants to hit people when you are angry. Since you have no shame, then I will say it out loud. Mom gives you money every month. With your salary, you bought a house and a Wrangler worth hundreds of thousands. Do you have any shame? Tell me, who gave you the money to buy the car? Hundreds of thousands, where did you get so much money?"
"Su Mingyu, say it again if you dare!"
"Mingyu, stop talking and leave."
Su Mingzhe said. Su Mingyu ignored him. She looked at Su Mingcheng and said:
"You dare not admit it, Su Mingcheng, what kind of man are you?"
"Su Mingyu, you're looking for death!"
Su Mingcheng was so angry that his face turned red and his neck was thick. He broke away from Su Mingzhe and Zhu Li and rushed directly towards Su Mingyu. Su Mingyu did not run away. She just stood there, looking like she was ready to be hit by Su Mingcheng.
Just when Su Mingcheng rushed to Su Mingyu, waving his fist and preparing to hit her hard in the face, Yuan Xudong couldn't help but frown. This Su Mingcheng was really ruthless. He kicked Su Mingcheng directly on the leg. Su Mingcheng rushed too fast, and his attention was all on Su Mingyu. He was caught off guard and was kicked by Yuan Xudong and fell to the ground.
As luck would have it, there was a stone on the ground, and he hit it, his mouth was full of blood, and two of his front teeth fell out. Everyone was stunned. Zhu Li quickly ran over to help Su Mingcheng up, and said with a worried look on her face:
"Husband, are you okay?"
Ignoring Zhu Li, Su Mingcheng transferred all his anger to Yuan Xudong. He roared and rushed towards Yuan Xudong.
However, Yuan Xudong had specially learned fighting skills, so he didn't take Su Mingcheng's random charge and punching seriously. Seeing Su Mingcheng rushing towards him again, he kicked him directly on the leg, and Su Mingcheng fell to the ground again.
At this time, Su Mingyu and Su Mingzhe also reacted. Su Mingzhe quickly ran forward to hold down Su Mingcheng. He looked at Su Mingyu and Yuan Xudong and said anxiously:
"Mingyu, hurry up and leave!"
"what!"
Su Mingcheng yelled:
"Assholes, don't leave!"
Su Mingyu quickly pulled Yuan Xudong into the car and drove away in a hurry.
No one noticed that Zhao Meilan's urn was still on Su Mingyu's car. When she drove away, the porcelain urn fell to the concrete floor with a bang and rolled twice on the ground due to inertia.
Everyone was stunned. The ashes in the urn were scattered on the ground. At this time, a gust of wind blew and the ashes flew away.
"mom!"
Su Mingcheng's eyes were red and he shouted loudly, hating Su Mingyu and Yuan Xudong in his heart.
At this time, Su Mingyu had already driven Yuan Xudong away from the funeral home. She had no idea that her mother's ashes had been scattered. The urn was placed on the body of her car by her eldest brother Su Mingzhe. She was completely unaware of it and was too emotional to notice it at the time. Just like that, her mother Zhao Meilan was strong and wanted to save face all her life, but after her death she lost face in front of relatives, friends, and neighbors. Her ashes were scattered. It was truly a great act of filial piety.
