After divorce, I can hear the voice of the future

Chapter 46 Siblings
"That car costs 300 million?"

My mother felt like she was going to faint again, so Lu Ya showed her excellent ability to rescue her on the spot: "Aliang came back from the Magic City at noon, so he probably hasn't had dinner yet, right?"

Lu Liang nodded quickly, complaining: "I just went to your house, and you didn't even plan to invite me in for a bite."

Lu Ya glared at him fiercely: "We've finished eating, there are only some leftovers, do you want any?"

"Have I eaten your leftovers since I was a child?"

With Lu Liang's cooperation, the siblings once again successfully diverted their mother's attention.

"It's already past eight o'clock, why haven't you had dinner yet?"

My mother didn't care about anything else and hurried to the kitchen, scolding me non-stop: "You didn't even tell me you were coming back, there's not much food in the fridge, I'll make you a bowl of noodles and fry an egg."

"It's all right."

Lu Liang saw his father take out the white sand from his pocket, and hurriedly took out the soft middle: "Dad, let's smoke this in the future."

He also opened the gift bag on the ground, which contained five soft drinks and five bottles of Moutai.

"This is Cordyceps sinensis. You can make tea or soup with it. This is Codonopsis pilosula. Mom's blood pressure is a little high. Let her take two tablets a day from now on."

Lu Liang introduced the gifts while his father smoked a cigarette. He was silent as usual, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, betraying his inner joy.

Parents all say that they don’t ask their children to be rich and powerful, they just want them to be safe and healthy. But who doesn’t want their sons to become successful?

Finally, Lu Liang took out a bank card and said, "Here's some money. Let's find some time to fix up our house."

"How much?" Dad asked.

"300."

Dad's eyes widened: "So many, you are going to build a palace, and your company doesn't need money."

"The company is the company, and I am me. It's complicated to explain, but generally speaking, there is no direct relationship between the two, and I don't have any place to spend money for the time being."

Lu Liang glanced at Lu Ya who was helping in the kitchen and said, "It will cost about 200 million to build a three or four-story house with all fine decoration. You can keep a few hundred thousand for yourself for the remaining 100 million. If my brother-in-law wants to start a business, you can help him."

My sister's marriage was neither good nor bad. My brother-in-law's family background was average, not as good as the rich, but better than the poor.

Previously, the couple had been running a small shop, but in recent years, with the birth of their second child and their first child reaching elementary school age, the financial pressure has visibly increased.

Whenever he has free time, my brother-in-law will go out to attract customers and transport goods, while my sister will do some handicrafts to supplement the family income while taking care of the store.

Now that Lu Liang has become prosperous, he also wants to make their lives a little better, but since he is the brother-in-law, it is not convenient for him to show up.

Lu Jiancheng is the father-in-law, so he doesn't have such concerns. It is a tradition since ancient times for a father-in-law to support his son-in-law.

In this way, his brother-in-law would pay more attention to their family affairs, after all, Lu Liang couldn't stay at home all the time.

“Now I’m really grown up.”

Dad let out a long sigh, his eyes full of relief.

At this time, Lu Ya came over with a bowl of noodles: "Egg and vegetable noodles, mom and dad, you too, why is there not even a little stock in the refrigerator?"

"On weekdays, there are only two of us at home. We buy too much and can't finish it. If it's left for too long, it won't be fresh anymore."

Lu Jiancheng pointed at the bank card and did not try to hide it from his daughter: "Your brother took some money and wanted to tear down this old house and rebuild it."

"That's a good thing. Just leave a room for me."

Lu Ya suddenly added, "By the way, don't look for acquaintances this time. They are always so treacherous."

"The last time I renovated my house, my father asked my cousin to help me with the paint. But after a few years, the paint started to fall off."

Dad was surprised: "When did this happen? Why didn't you tell me?"

"It's in the past. What's the point of talking about it? Besides, he's my uncle after all. I can't scold him, and I can't compensate him."

Lu Ya put her arm around Lu Liang's shoulders and said earnestly, "Aliang, you must find professionals to build the house this time, preferably people you are not familiar with. That way, if there are any problems, you can tell them what you need to say and scold them when you need to. You don't have to serve them with good cigarettes and tea on weekdays. It's not like we haven't paid them."

Lu Ya had already suffered a loss at the hands of a so-called acquaintance once, and she didn’t want Lu Liang to repeat her mistake.

"Sister, you are always very careful with your budget. Why don't you help me with the arrangements? I will be at home for a few days and will be back on Thursday."

Hearing Lu Liang's words, Lu Ya hesitated. A daughter who is married off is like water spilled out. She didn't want to be gossiped about. Lu Liang understood her concerns and deliberately provoked her: "Is my sister someone who is so easily influenced by rumors?"

"Don't provoke me. Eat quickly and send me home after you're done. I'll think about it." Lu Ya glared at him unhappily.

Lu Liang quickly finished his noodles and picked up the car keys: "Mom and Dad, I'm going to take my sister home first."

"Be careful on the road. If you are going to drink with friends later, don't drive."

"understood."

On the way back, Lu Liang said, "Sister, you know that my parents are easily influenced. If we let them take charge, who knows where some relative will come from to undertake the project. It doesn't matter if we spend more money, but the key is that we will not get the job done even if we spend the money."

"So, you want me to be the bad guy."

Lu Ya looked helpless and sighed, "If you want me to help you, that's fine. Don't leave the money for building a new house with my parents. Leave it with you. I'll take as much as I want from you."

She is not afraid of rumors, but she is afraid that her parents will be influenced by them and look at her with tinted glasses.

Lu Liang is her younger brother, so she won't have such concerns. The relationship between siblings is much deeper than that between parents.

"I'll listen to you. I didn't think it through just now." Lu Liang looked ashamed. He didn't expect there was such a conflict of interest.

He paused and said, "Before returning to Shanghai, I will leave some money with my parents. If my brother-in-law wants to start a business in the future, he can go to my parents."

Lu Ya's face changed slightly. Before she could speak, Lu Liang said hurriedly, "You are my sister, my only sister. I am really rich now. Hundreds of millions are nothing to me. I want to make your lives better.

Look at Huang Er from the next village. He made money and later brought his brother-in-law to work with him. Both families lived a very good life.

Even if not for yourself, you should consider your first and second child. They are getting older and will have a lot of money to spend in the future."

After hearing this, Lu Ya fell silent.

After a long time, Lu Liang asked in a low voice: "Sister?"

Lu Ya smiled in relief: "You have already said everything, what else can I say? I'll tell you when you have something to say."

Lu Liang breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "It's my dad's birthday next Wednesday, I plan to set up a few tables at Zhenhailou."

Zhenhailou is the largest restaurant in the town, specializing in hosting large banquets such as wedding banquets, birthday banquets, etc.

"Dad is not too old, so we don't need to have several tables. Just one table. Invite grandpa and grandma, and we can just eat together."

Lu Ya said as she transferred 800 yuan to Lu Liang: "I know you have money, but I, your father, also have a share."

"All right, whatever you say."

Lu Liang sent his sister home. He wanted to contact his childhood friends, have a midnight snack, have a few drinks, and reminisce about their youth.

As a result, when I call, I either have to go to work tomorrow, or send the kids to school tomorrow, or my wife won't let me go out.

Lu Liang sighed. It was extremely difficult to ask those housewives to come out without any festival or holiday.

He simply drove home.

After returning home, Lu Liang briefly told his parents about the arrangements for building a new house.

He held the money, while Lu Ya was responsible for the overall planning. In the end, he left one million for the family in case of emergency.

My mother cried with joy when she heard this: "I feel relieved that you two siblings have both started families and have such a good relationship."

"Sisters and brothers fight together, and fathers and sons fight together in battle."

Lu Liang was tired after driving for half a day, so he took a shower and returned to his room.

The furnishings inside and outside his old house were all very old, only his room was new.

When I got married a few years ago, even though I didn’t live at home anymore, I spent tens of thousands of dollars on redecorating the house and bought some furniture and appliances.

Now things have changed. Lu Liang took down the wedding photo from the bedside, took out the photos inside, tore them to pieces, and stuffed the frame under the bed.

He checked again and destroyed all the photos before he lay down on the bed with peace of mind.
