Chapter 8 Preliminary Reconciliation Between Brother and Sister
Chapter 8 Initial reconciliation between brother and sister
With five hundred US dollars in benefits on the line, Su Daqiang acted quickly. He returned the call that night and told Zhao Ye the contact information of Su Mingyu.
When I got here, it was time to hang up the phone, but this old guy was so shameless that he hinted that Zhao Ye must not forget to send him money.
Zhao Ye rolled his eyes after hearing those words, and had to suppress the desire to complain. After giving another assurance, Su Daqiang, an old boy, ended the call with satisfaction.
Around six o'clock in the morning the next day, Zhao Yechen ran back, calculated the time and called Su Mingyu's dormitory.
The person who answered the phone was Su Mingyu's roommate. Hearing that he was looking for Su Mingyu, he called Su Mingyu over.
Su Mingyu had just returned from the supermarket where she worked, and was washing up alone in the bathroom. When she heard her phone call, and then thought of her father Su Daqiang whom she had met before, she suddenly had some guesses in her heart. She picked up the phone and asked softly: "Brother, is it?
You?"
Zhao Ye, who was far away in San Francisco, felt filled with emotions after hearing Su Mingyu's voice on the phone.
Whether it's in the TV series or the original novel, there may be something wrong with what Su Mingyu did, but if you compare yourself to yourself and live in a family like that, you really can't blame them.
After all, as the old saying goes, don’t persuade others to do good without suffering others’ suffering!
From Su Mingyu's perspective, Su Daqiang and his wife did give birth to her and raised her until she was eighteen years old.
But everything is afraid of comparison. With the example of Su Mingzhe's two brothers in front, and her own experience in the background, Su Mingyu will inevitably feel unbalanced. After all, she has never felt the care from her parents and brothers since she was a child.
Su Mingyu's rejection did not surprise Zhao Ye. After all, it is easy to see from the TV plot that this is a very independent girl.
After hearing these heart-warming words, Su Mingyu couldn't bear it anymore, her tears burst like a dam, and she cried silently.
Therefore, after hearing Su Mingyu's question, Zhao Ye tried his best to answer in the kindest tone:
"You silly girl, you are my sister, shouldn't I care about you? And it's not just me, my parents actually care about you too. They just have unavoidable difficulties, so you should be more considerate."
Big brother can't do anything about what has happened. But things are different now. Big brother is barely independent now, so while apologizing to you, I also want to compensate you again. Are you willing to give big brother this chance?"
Big brother believes that with your intelligence, you can definitely get into a famous foreign university. As for the cost of studying abroad, big brother will cover all the expenses, and I promise not to let you down."
After she finished crying her grievances, her mood finally stabilized, and she said emotionally in a hoarse voice:
Immediately, the circles under his eyes turned red, but he still said firmly: "Everything is fine with me, thank you for your concern, brother."
This is what Zhao Ye was waiting for. Hearing this, he immediately advised:
Su Mingyu was only a 19-year-old hairy girl at this time, and she had not experienced social experience. When she heard that her elder brother, who was always busy with his own affairs in the past, suddenly called to care about her younger sister, she felt surprised in her heart.
At the same time, I can't help but think of the injustice I suffered these days.
"Brother, thank you for remembering my sister. Today is the happiest day in my life. You let me know that I still have relatives who care about me."
Regarding the relationship between mother and daughter, Zhao Ye was powerless for the time being and could only try to persuade them.
Zhao Ye knew that a three-foot freeze was not a day's cold, so he stopped trying to persuade him and just followed Su Mingyu's words and vividly described the situation at Stanford University.
Of course Zhao Ye heard the insincerity and subtext in Su Mingyu's words. If she said she didn't blame Su Mingzhe, she must be blaming Zhao Meilan.
"There is no tuition fee, but what about your living expenses?"
Su Mingyu had long been in trouble. She was not willing to listen to Zhao Ye's defense for Su Daqiang and his wife, especially Zhao Meilan. After hearing this, he immediately changed the subject and said, "Brother, how are you in the United States? Are you still used to life there?"
Before he finished speaking, Su Mingyu interrupted: "Brother, there's no need for this! Don't forget, I went to normal school for free."
By the time Zhao Ye finished speaking these words, more than ten minutes had passed. Su Mingyu inadvertently saw the call time on the phone and hurriedly proposed to stop talking today for fear of burdening her brother's life.
"Mingyu, you don't need to say these polite words. Although my eldest brother didn't care enough about you in the past, after all, we are brothers and sisters whose blood is thicker than water, and we are a family that can never be separated.
"You don't have to say these words to me. I only know that you are my sister. Is it wrong for a brother to care about his sister?
You give me your bank card number, and starting from next month, I will pay you $500 on time at the end of the month until you graduate from college."
Zhao Ye sighed on the phone and said bluntly: "Mingyu, I know you have been wronged. With your grades, you could have gone to a better university. If it weren't for the fact that you had to support your eldest brother to study abroad, your family's financial situation would be worse.
Even if you are short of money, I won't delay you. It's my brother who feels sorry for you."
"Mingyu, it's me, eldest brother. I thought it was time for you to go to college, so I'm going to call you to ask if you're still getting used to college life. Is there anything you need help from?"
But no matter what excuse Su Mingyu found to refuse, Zhao Ye also had reasons why he couldn't give up casually.
Such emotional words made Zhao Ye, a grown man, feel soft in his heart. At this moment, he seemed to have really replaced Su Mingzhe when talking to his sister.
"Mingyu, it's like this. My eldest brother has found a job here in San Francisco. From now on, he can make money while going to school. So I think, all the expenses for your four years of college..."
When Su Mingyu heard this, she turned her head first and deliberately turned her back to her roommates to prevent them from seeing her embarrassment. Then she replied: "What does this have to do with eldest brother? If eldest brother can get into Stanford, that's your own fault. Really?"
Yes, I don’t blame you, besides, Normal University is not bad either.”
"Mingyu, your most important task at this stage is to study hard and don't waste time on other things. Don't be discouraged just because you are studying in a normal university. As long as you are willing to study hard, you can still go abroad like your elder brother.
Study abroad.
Therefore, whether it was for system tasks or whether it was for Su Mingzhe's identity, Zhao Ye believed that he had the responsibility and obligation to heal the trauma in Su Mingyu's heart.
Zhao Ye stopped her move and talked about the real purpose of today's call.
"My dad gives me living expenses every month, and like my eldest brother, I have also found a job and am currently working and studying in my spare time. With this money, I have more than enough to support myself, and I don't have to worry about my eldest brother at all."
"Brother, my sister appreciates your thoughts, but it's even more difficult for you to be alone. I can't drag you down anymore."
To do all this, the first step is to improve the senses of Su Mingzhe, the brother, in Su Mingyu's heart.
Su Mingyu didn't know that this was the first time she had been touched today. At this moment, she felt unprecedented family affection from Zhao Ye, but being strong and independent by nature, she still rejected the kindness.
Su Mingyu was not willing to say anything, but Zhao Ye took the next step and said: "If you don't tell me your number, then I can only use a more troublesome method and directly use remittance. You can figure it out!"
"Oh, brother, why are you like this!" Su Mingyu really didn't expect that her usually introverted brother would have such a rogue side. In the end, she had no choice but to reveal her bank card number.
Seeing that he had achieved his goal, Zhao Ye was immediately satisfied. Before hanging up the phone, he did not forget to tell Su Mingyu once again to quit his job in the supermarket tomorrow, study hard from now on, and not be distracted by other things.
Su Mingyu couldn't resist Zhao Ye, so she had to agree with her words, but she made up her mind. Since her eldest brother was far away in the United States and couldn't keep an eye on her in person, she should continue to do what she should do. As for the money sent by her eldest brother, she would keep it temporarily.
Will return it in the future.
