Life in the world of film and television

Chapter 7 Ledger
Along the way, the two chatted from time to time, and the strangeness gradually disappeared.

Soon he arrived at Ming Cheng's house. Just after entering the door, Su Daqiang saw Li Mu, as if he saw the backbone, and immediately greeted him with red eyes.

"Mingzhe, Mingzhe...you are finally back!"

Li Mu hurriedly supported him, looking like a child with red and swollen eye bags and messy hair, seeing him as if seeing Su Daqiang who was relying on him, he couldn't help but shook his head and smiled wryly.

After comforting him for a while, Su Daqiang finally felt relieved, the cloudy weather turned sunny, and he accompanied Li Mu into Ming Cheng's house.

The room is well decorated, warm and bourgeoisie, with snow-white walls, simple and exquisite furniture of several colors, the table is also clean, there are no gaudy silk flower arrangements, only a crystal bottle of white lilies is placed on the coffee table near the balcony .

The whole room looks comfortable and warm, bright and open, presumably it should be Zhu Li's handwriting, Mingcheng does not have such a high taste.

As soon as he sat down here, Su Daqiang held Li Mu's hand and didn't let go, as if he had caught the new support after Su's mother passed away, crying and saying: "Mingzhe, what should I do, your mother is gone, I don't know what to do, you can't leave me alone!"

As he said that, like a child, he sniffled again.

If you don't look at age, just listen to the tone of voice, Li Mu is the father, and Su Daqiang is the child.

He finally understands what an old child is, and this is actually not a big deal. Su Daqiang, who has completely let go of himself without the suppression of Su's mother, is really tormenting people.

Patting him on the back, he comforted him like coaxing a child: "Okay, Dad, you still have a few of us, how can we ignore you."

"Don't worry, I will definitely arrange for you next time, so that you can enjoy your old age in peace."

Hearing Li Mu's assurance, Su Daqiang stopped sobbing immediately, and glanced at him quietly again.

He whispered: "Then... I dare not go home alone, I stay at home alone, I will be your mother when I open my eyes and close my eyes, I can't stay for a moment, I want to live with you."

Mingyu, Mingcheng and Zhu Li were a little stunned when they heard the words, a little surprised that Su Daqiang said that, and said it so directly.

However, Li Mu has long been mentally prepared. Facing a wild boy who is about to let himself go, he doesn't have to have any expectations.

Let him have fun for a few days first, and then train him like Su's mother, and suppress his arrogance, which is the right way.

Li Mu smiled: "Okay! The few of us will never let you have no place to live. Where do you want to live?"

Su Daqiang glanced at Li Mu cautiously, and then at Su Mingcheng.

Then he whispered: "When your mother is here, we often come to Mingcheng's house to clean up. Look, that rattan rocking chair, your mother likes to sit there when she is tired, I can always see her when I look up."

"I'm so scared! I didn't fall asleep all night last night, as if your mother was lying on the next bed. I dare not live in Mingcheng's house."

Li Mu knew that the ultimate goal of this old boy Su Daqiang was to go abroad with him.

I have been cowardly all my life, and no one is pressing on my head anymore, so I just want to have a good time, live in a villa, spend US dollars, and earn enough face in front of neighbors, relatives, friends, and colleagues.

Furthermore, Su Daqiang's temperament of bullying the weak and fearing the strong, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, is worried about Su Mingcheng, a former gnawing old man, and feels that life with him is not safe, and he is even more afraid of Mingcheng's idea of ​​their pension funds.

Facing the domineering Mingyu, he was also uneasy. He and Su's mother had cut off ties with Mingyu long ago, promising that Mingyu would not worry about pension issues.

After all the calculations, Mingzhe is the most reliable.

Sure enough, Mingyu also said at this time: "Dad, since you don't want to go home and live in Ming Cheng's house, go live with me. Mom has never been to my place!"

Su Daqiang shook his head hastily, "No, no... You fly all over the country every day, and you can't see people. Going to your place is better than going to a nursing home."

Then he turned his head and cried to Li Mu: "Mingzhe, do you think I should live in a nursing home? Help me make up my mind."

As he spoke, he squeezed his eyes and squeezed out a few tears, which made people laugh.

Li Mu knows what Su Daqiang thinks, so it is not impossible to take him abroad to experience it. First, he can reform Su Daqiang nearby, and suppress his problems of cheating children and letting himself go. Second, Su Daqiang later got Alzheimer’s disease. The research is deeper.

You can go to some well-known foreign hospitals for check-ups. It is best to prevent them in advance.

However, this is just his plan, and he can't say it yet, and he can't be so used to him.

Deliberately said: "Why don't we rent a house for you alone, and hire a nanny to take care of you, it would be nice to be free!"

Hearing this, Su Daqiang shook his head even harder, and his eyes were red, as if he was about to cry the next moment.

"No, I don't want to. I don't want to live alone. I heard that the current nanny will abuse the elderly. Meilan, as soon as you leave, the children won't care about me..."

Su Daqiang is worthy of being a showman, and he cried on the spot.

It made several people stunned for a while.

Li Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and stepped forward to pat Su Daqiang on the back: "Okay, we won't go to a nursing home, and we won't rent a house."

"Stay at Ming Cheng's house for a while, and I'll make arrangements for the United States to pick you up after a while."

Hearing this, Su Daqiang's eyes lit up immediately, he stopped crying immediately, the light rain turned fine, he patted his thigh and said: "Okay, Mingzhe, this is a good idea..."

……

Moreover, after Su Daqiang saw his performance, Li Mu agreed readily, and his heart was surging for a while, despite the fact that Su's mother had just passed away, his face was full of joy.

As if gaining confidence, realizing his identity as the head of the Su family, he began to become more dignified.

As the only surviving elder of the Su family, he feels that what he says now has weight.

He couldn't help straightening his spine, the first time in his life he consciously straightened his spine, and felt in his heart that he was a turned serf and was the master of the house.

For more than 30 years, this was the first time he felt this feeling in his heart.This feeling is very wonderful, it expands his lung capacity, and he is full of breath between breaths.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of something, and for the first time bravely looked directly at Mingyu, and said, "Mingyu, take me home to get something."

"What are you taking?" Mingyu asked, and got up to get ready, her voice a little loud.

Unexpectedly, Su Daqiang, like a mouse seeing a cat, shrank his neck in fright at her words, and quickly turned to Li Mu, and said softly, "Just to get some change of clothes, don't you want to live in Mingcheng's house?"

Li Mu patted Su Daqiang's arm, stood up and said to Mingyu, "Let's go with Dad, I haven't seen the old house for many years, go back and have a look."

Su Daqiang was afraid that Mingyu would refuse, so he got up quickly and said, "Alright...Mingzhe, Mingyu, you two will go with me."

……

Back in the old house, Su Daqiang stretched out his hand and sneaked into the back room nimbly, and the floor of Su's mother's bed on the Fengshui treasure floor by the window twitched for a while.

Regardless of the forehead hanging a few strands of spider web.Standing up proudly, Mingyu's eyes were like lightning, and before Su Daqiang quickly tucked the things into his trouser pockets, he recognized a stack of small passbooks in his hand.

It turned out that the rush to rush here was because he was worried about getting out of the passbook under the bed.What about a change of clothes?
He directly reached out and snatched it, and when he opened it, there were only more than 4 deposits.

Su Daqiang was like a cat whose tail had been trampled on, and suddenly became anxious, reaching out to snatch it back.

"Mingyu! This is all I have, you can't steal it!"

Mingyu took a few steps back and shook the passbook: "You and my mother have saved this little money for so many years."

Su Daqiang stared at the bankbook with scorching eyes, anxious like an ant on a hot pot: "Mingyu, you can't blame me! It's all Mingcheng, half of your mother's pension and mine have been taken away by Mingcheng all these years, you can't Take even this from me."

Hearing Su Daqiang's words, Mingyu looked at Li Mu beside him.

As if to say: "See, big brother, where did the family's money go, and who spent it!"

Then he raised the passbook in his hand, and said to Su Daqiang: "Dad, I heard that you have the habit of keeping accounts, and you can remember every expense clearly since you were a child."

"Take out the account book and have a look, and the passbook will be returned to you."

Su Daqiang hesitated for a moment, saw Li Mu next to him, as if he had found support, hurriedly walked a few steps closer, pointed at Mingyu and said, "Mingzhe, look at Mingyu..."

It's like a child complaining to an adult.

Li Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Dad, Mingyu was joking with you. But since you have the account book, show it to us!"

Then she turned to look at Mingyu: "Mingyu, return the passbook to Dad first."

Mingyu behaved very obediently.

"Okay, big brother!"

As he said that, he returned the passbook, Su Daqiang found it again, it was very precious, and he immediately hid it tightly.

Then, there was another round of ups and downs in the room, and a stack of ledgers was found.

Holding the top thin book, he said, "This is Mingyu's."

Then he took out the following three or four books: "Mingzhe, this is yours."

There is still a big pile left, Su Daqiang pointed and said: "These are Mingcheng's."

Su Daqiang said with some pride: "Back then, the school encouraged keeping family books. I remember it very carefully. Every expense was not lost. I even won the first prize of the school's selection of diligent and thrifty housekeeping. The habit of keeping books has been persisted until now. "

Li Mu took out Mingzhe's and flipped through it, and it basically matched the expenses in memory, and there were some that he had forgotten.

Su Daqiang really remembered too detailedly. For example, he bought a candied haws on a certain day in a certain year, and it was recorded on it.

Then he picked up Mingcheng's account book and flipped through it casually, as expected of a gnawing old family.

Especially after he went abroad, Mingcheng was even more comfortable, almost every one or two months he had to take money from his family, and half of the two people's income over the years went to Mingcheng.

Picking up Mingyu's and looking at it, even though Li Mu was prepared, he was still surprised.

It's really too little, not to mention pocket money, even the cost of some basic learning materials is pitiful.

It can be seen that Yuchang is so big, except for food and accommodation, he basically doesn't spend much of the family's money.

Not to mention comparing with Ming Cheng, it is too far behind him.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but sighed softly, walked to Mingyu's side, and patted her on the shoulder with some pity: "Mingyu, I have wronged you!"

Hearing what elder brother said, Mingyu felt warm and relieved a lot. Although her eye circles were a little red, she still put on a nonchalant look, and said in a chic tone: "Brother, it's all over. Letting you read these books is also to let you You understand the situation, there is no other meaning."

Li Mu nodded: "I understand."

"However, there are still some things that need to be told. As a big brother, I can't let you continue to be wronged."

Mingyu was silent for a while, and finally smiled, like a hundred flowers blooming: "Thank you, brother."

……

On the other side, Su Daqiang began to arrange his clothes, but there were only a few good ones, almost all of which were old.

Mingyu said from the side: "Don't take those clothes, can you still wear them? Go buy new ones later. No one will control you in the future, don't be mean to yourself, eat better and dress better, don't make it look like the last century .”

Hearing about buying clothes, Su Daqiang covered his passbook pocket, hesitated for a moment and looked at Li Mu.

Li Mu said: "Don't take those old clothes, let's go to the mall, I will pay, you can choose whatever you want!"

Only then did Su Daqiang smile and happily agree.

Afterwards, several people came to the shopping mall, and after walking around, Su Daqiang got four sets of new vests and trousers, four sets of cotton sweater trousers, two sets of sweater trousers, two woolen trousers, a jacket, and a down jacket.

As well as new woolen socks, as well as these daily necessities such as towels, bath towels, toothbrushes and toothpaste.

For a moment, Su Daqiang blushed in joy.
