Lisco's American Life
645. Change your mouth
For the two elders, jewelry worth more than one billion is like a fantasy. Even the richest person he knows cannot achieve this level. Zhang You thought of one of his comrades, because in his early years he dared to
I went wild and plunged into the work of sand and soil engineering.
After so many years, I made some money, and then I picked up a batch of land with a keen eye. I successfully transformed and founded a real estate company. The company's current total market value is only over a billion.
Even so, they are the guests of the entire city. Sometimes they visit leaders and even the mayor will accompany them, hoping to attract some investment.
As a result, we now know that the other party's net worth, which he has worked hard for decades, is now only the price of a ring on his daughter's finger.
This really made Zhang You look a little complicated.
Li Feng on the other side also had the same look. The two elders had worked hard all their lives to raise their daughter. They lived frugally on weekdays, but their total family property was only a few million. In addition, Zhang Li gave Zhang Li a gift after graduation.
The second elder's house in Kyoto.
With more than one billion, Li Feng began to imagine what the scale would be if all this money was put together.
On weekdays, although the two elders knew that Liske had a lot of assets, and he was also a famous writer, with such a large ranch, his net worth should be quite a lot.
But I have never had a relatively intuitive concept, so I am not so reserved in speaking and doing things. Today I really saw the power of Lisko. Good guy, I bought over a billion things at once, as if I were going to the wet market to buy them.
Just like a Chinese cabbage, this really shocked the two elders.
Zhang Li looked at her mother's performance and couldn't laugh or cry. Her original idea was just to show off to her parents that Li Sko valued her, but she didn't expect that she would become a burden to her parents. This was quite the opposite.
"It's okay, Mom, take it."
Zhang Li was funny, but at the same time, he also felt a bit of sadness in his heart. Because his mother was relatively frugal in her life, she had never worn any expensive jewelry. The only collection in the family was a gold bracelet passed down from her grandma, and because the style was relatively old.
It's old and has been kept by my mother.
There were also a few silver jewelry, which were all worthless things. I bought them when I got married to my father. Because they were inconvenient to wear while doing housework, my mother also kept them.
Seeing the lack of decoration on his mother's body, Zhang Li realized at this moment that his usual concern for his mother was somewhat less than it used to be.
She forcefully handed the ring to Li Feng's hand, and then explained to him the value of the ring, such as the carat of the blue diamond and its unique craftsmanship.
Zhang You, on the other hand, had a complicated expression. He always thought that he had found a son-in-law with a good net worth, but he did not expect that the son-in-law was an invisible giant.
He looked at Liske's expression and patted him on the shoulder, expressing his approval of Liske's care for Zhang Li.
"You're interested, but you still have to be frugal in life. Just buy an ordinary one. This one is a bit too expensive and you can't take it out."
Zhang You's mouth moved, not knowing what to say. After holding it in for a long time, he finally uttered a sentence. This was the last sign of his stubbornness as the father-in-law.
"Okay, I know."
Lisko also understood what the other party was thinking, so he answered the question very respectfully, as if he was telling Zhang You in this way that he was still the son-in-law before and nothing had changed.
After saying this, Lisko tried hard twice and then spoke.
"dad,"
He had decided this matter a long time ago. According to Chinese customs, this is how a son-in-law calls his father-in-law mother-in-law. He had never changed his name before, also because he had not obtained the certificate.
The process has been completed today, so he has no excuse to refuse. In addition, he doesn't mind calling the second elder that way. After all, ever since he and Zhang Li were together, the second elder has always treated him as his nephew.
The care is also meticulous.
When Zhang You and Li Feng on the side heard Liske's change of words, they first looked at each other with complicated expressions, and then their eyes filled with tears.
Speaking of which, not having a son in this life has always been a knot between the two elders. After all, the folk tradition is such that not having a son will be despised by others in many places.
For example, they have heard ridicules such as cutting off descendants and having no way to continue the family line, etc.
However, due to work reasons, if the child was born, the two people's official positions would be gone. This was completely a loss outweighing the gain, so despite their bitterness in their hearts, they still made it this far and poured more love into Zhang Li.
And the only thing that makes Zhang You more gratified is that his younger brother has a son, so that their branch will not really disappear from the family tree.
Lisko's change of words today brought an endless sense of satisfaction to his heart. A son-in-law with half a son, even though he has no sons, but having a filial son-in-law is more promising than several other people's sons.
"Okay, okay, good boy, let's go home."
Tears were streaming down Zhang You's face, and even Li Feng on one side was in tears. Zhang Li looked at Li Sike in surprise. She had received too many surprises today, and she couldn't digest them all at once.
The other party did not discuss this matter with her. As the only daughter in the family, she naturally knew her parents' regrets all the time. When she was a child, she also resented why she was not born as a boy.
When I grew up, I felt relieved. Although my parents did not have a son, they had an extremely filial daughter. They worked extra hard to earn money, making their parents' lives much more comfortable than those who had sons.
This was also the original intention of the other party, who had been filming various commercials in school and working hard to save money.
Seeing her parents so happy, she was also very moved. The two of them had been deliberately avoiding this question before because she knew that Liske was an American and it was inappropriate to ask the other party for Chinese customs.
Although I feel regretful, as long as two people love each other, these things can be tolerated.
Unexpectedly, she had been holding it in until today, and Lisko gave her a big surprise.
After saying it for the first time, Lisko felt much more natural, so he called Li Feng again with a calm expression.
"Mom, come on in. We are both a little hungry. Please cook some rice noodles for us. I want lean meat."
"Okay, okay, I'll do it."
Li Feng held Liske's hand, her face so full of joy that Zhang Li couldn't care less and walked into the castle. At the same time, she completely forgot about the ring worth more than one billion in Liske's hand.
After all, in this atmosphere, it seems that the surprise of money is no longer enough.
