"Brother, what do you think we should do?"
The second brother, Xiao Hong, exhaled a smoke ring and asked blankly.
Xiao Han was the eldest brother. He went out to work to support his younger siblings at the age of 18 so everyone was convinced.
"The biggest problem is what to do after we bring her back.”
Xiao Han spoke, feeling very annoyed. He never smoked and took a cigarette from his brother.
"Unfortunately, there aren't many records in Mom's notebook. I wonder what kind of person Dad is in real life.”Third Brother Xiao Lin said faintly.
She was a girl and had a meticulous mind. Right now, she was thinking about how her siblings would interact with each other after her father returned. It was impossible for her to ignore each other and not interact with each other until they died.
And it wasn't just the five of them. Xiao Lin's expression was slightly hesitant, and his right hand subconsciously touched his slightly bulging belly. After thinking for a while, he still didn't say that matter first.
"Do you guys think what our mom wrote in her notebook is true?”Xiao Yuan suddenly said.
Everyone was stunned.
That's right, is our deadbeat father really as outstanding as what Mother said in her notebook?
Xiao Han still remembered the surprise when he opened the notebook last night. His mother recorded many things about his father in the diary. She said that his father, Xiao Tu, was the most visionary person of the century and the most talented person she had ever seen. There was a deep admiration in her words.
For example, a random incident was recorded in his mother's diary.
In the 1990s, his father, Xiao Tu, had predicted the skyrocketing property prices. He had mentioned buying a house in advance. If he had the conditions, he could rent a few houses as a landlord. It was simply wonderful.
Another example was Xiao Tu's prediction of the development of smart phones. This was simply unbelievable. One had to know that at that time, it was still the era when mobile phones and beeper players were rampant in the world!
According to what her mother said, her father was such a visionary and talented person. If he had not gone missing, after more than 20 years of development, wouldn't her father have become a millionaire long ago?
For a moment, the brothers and sisters all had different feelings and complicated expressions.
"Sigh, actually, it's useless to say all this. Twenty-five years have passed, and our dead father has returned to modern society. Can he really integrate into it? After all, the development is too fast now!”
"What I'm most afraid of is that he can't keep up with the pace of society. As his children, we can't ignore him. At the very least, after he returns home, we have to take care of his daily life and help him settle down and find a job.”Xiao Han sighed.
"Big brother is right."
The brothers and sisters nodded.
If Xiao Tu was present, he would definitely show a gratified expression. He did not even expect Li Man to teach his children so well. Each and every one of them was cultured and had character. They did not have the thought of ignoring them just because a father appeared out of nowhere.
One had to know that all five of the Xiao siblings were not in a good financial situation. Their father's sudden appearance was a huge pressure on the five of them!
"We have to face what we have to face."
The second brother, Xiao Hong, had a calm personality and was also the most educated among his siblings. It was just that he did not encounter any opportunities. Now, he was just an ordinary employee in a private real estate company.
"In short, let's bring her home first. We'll see what happens next!”
The boss Xiao Han said.
"Let's do it this way. Youngest brother, you can empty your room. After your dead father comes back, he will stay with us for two days and help him adapt to modern society.”
"Big Brother, where should I stay?" Xiao Wanying, the youngest, asked in a wronged tone.
"You sleep with your sister-in-law, I'll sleep on the sofa!”Xiao Han didn't give her a chance to refuse and continued,"Bring him back. After he stabilizes, the few of us siblings will pool together to rent a house for him!”
Xiao Han showed a helpless expression.
There was nothing he could do about it. Out of the five siblings, he was the only one who bought a house. Unfortunately, there were only two rooms, which was not enough for him to live in.
The second son, Xiao Hong, and the fourth son, Xiao Yuan, were still living in the basement of Linhai City. They needed 2000 yuan a month. With such a small salary, when would they be able to buy a house?
The third brother, Xiao Lin, was married. Although the husband's family had a house, it was his family's business to pick him up. Xiao Han knew that his brother-in-law had always been dissatisfied with their family's economic conditions so he couldn't trouble the other party. Otherwise, his sister's life in the husband's family would be even more embarrassing.
"Alright, I agree."
Xiao Hong said happily.
"Alright, we agree too."
Everyone looked at each other and collectively agreed to this plan.
"I am the eldest brother. I will contribute more to the matter of settling my father. I will pay 20,000 yuan. As for you, each of you will pay 5000 yuan. Other than renting a house for my father, the rest will be his living expenses.”Xiao Han said in a low voice.
"Big brother…"
Xiao Hong wanted to say something but was stopped by Xiao Han's stern eyes.
"Big brother, can I pay less? I've been so poor recently. I guess…I can only take out 2000 yuan.”The younger sister, Xiao Wanying, stuck out her tongue and looked pitiful.
"Forget it, I'll help little sister pay the rest.”
Xiao Hong gritted his teeth and said.
"Wow, Second Brother is the best!" Xiao Wanying jumped up and gave her brother a kiss.
Then, Xiao Hong and his siblings looked at each other with a hint of bitterness in their eyes. They all understood that their eldest brother did not have so much money. This 20,000 yuan might be all the savings in the family.
However, there was nothing they could do to get them to fork out more money!
"Oh right, there's one more thing. They sent me a message saying that we can pick her up at Linhai Dishui Lake Hotel at 10 am tomorrow morning.”
"After all, it's the first time we're meeting that damned father of ours. Let's apply for leave together and go pick him up.”Xiao Han spoke.
“OK！”
This time, the siblings nodded happily.
The group discussed some small details and the brothers and sisters left Xiao Han's house with different expressions.
"Honey…"
After her brother and sister left, Liu Yan walked to Xiao Han's side with a complicated expression.
In the past two days, Liu Yan knew how much pressure her husband was under. Not only did he have work problems, but he also had to deal with the return of his father-in-law. It was really hard.
However, she felt that there were some things that she needed to say.
"Hubby, our dad is back. The expenses at home will definitely increase. He wondered if the country had compensated him for the flight.”Liu Yan probed.
He was still looking forward to it.
If Xiao Han's father came back with the country's compensation, it would be great if it was a few million. At the very least, it could improve the family's environment.
"Liu Yan!"
Xiao Han immediately jumped up and gritted his teeth."Let me tell you, don't have any ideas about him. Even if he has any compensation from the country, it's his business how he wants to spend it!”
"But at the very least, we're his biological children now. We siblings have to take responsibility!”
"Hey, I was just saying. Why are you so excited?”Liu Yan muttered. "Besides, even if he doesn't give us the money, he has to give it to his two grandchildren!”
Xiao Han's expression was complicated and he sighed."Now that our dead father is back, I know that the one who will have to work hard will be you. We will definitely have to take care of him for a period of time. I don't want to think about anything now. I just hope that my dead father is an easy-going person and won't cause any trouble for our family.”
"Sigh, I hope so too!"
Liu Yan muttered, and then her eyes lit up."But it's still a good thing. I saw the news. Now that our dad is back, he hasn't changed at all from 25 years ago! In other words, he was only twenty-five years old, and his body was still in good condition!”
"I think we can find a job for our dad after he gets used to it for a while. At that time, his salary will be enough to supplement his family expenses.”Liu Yan was so happy that she was blooming with joy.
"You call me that so easily. You're even calling me Dad now.”
Xiao Han looked at his wife who was calculating and smiled bitterly.
"Dad, Mom, is Grandpa coming back?”
Two small heads poked out of the room. Their eyes were filled with excitement as they asked in a happy tone.
"That's right. Mo Lin, Mobai, come over here.”Xiao Han waved at his two sons.
"When Grandpa comes home, you must be good. Don't make Grandpa angry!”Xiao Han smiled and scratched the noses of his eldest son and youngest son.
"Yes!" The two little fellows nodded their heads in a mischievous manner. They were also looking forward to it.
Our grandfather is back!
