The father and son walked around in the park. Su Daqiang was tired, so he went to rest on a bench by the roadside. At this time, he suddenly cried out that he was hungry and wanted to eat hot dogs. He said that in American movies... To be precise, he always said that he was hungry in Tom and Jerry. There will be hot dogs and sandwiches, he's had enough Chinese food, he wants this.
This is what happens in the world. People living in China want to eat Western food when they come abroad, while Chinese people living abroad want to eat Chinese food every day.
Since the old man wants to eat hot dogs, let's go buy them.
There were no fast food restaurants in the park. Su Daqiang was tired from walking again, so he thought there was a hot dog stall across the street, and the Grand Park was located in the city center and had good security.
Then he let the old man rest on the bench, picked up his bag and left alone.
The security in the city center is good, but just because no one is robbing, it doesn't mean there won't be any security cases.
When Su Mingzhe came back from buying hot dogs, he found two policemen taking Su Daqiang out of Grand Park and escorting him into a police car. The old man loudly said that his son was a top student who graduated from Stanford University. He bought a house and settled here, but no matter what he did, How to explain it and who can understand it?
Su Mingzhe hurriedly stopped the police to explain. The other party told him to follow the procedures and check the old man's passport and visa, so that was why he hurriedly called Lin Yue to ask for his passport and visa.
As for why the old man was arrested, the reason is really dumbfounding.
This guy has been saying in China that he cannot embarrass the Chinese people when he comes to the United States. When he was waiting for hot dogs on a park bench, a white man saw that he was a foreigner and elderly, so he sat on the bench alone. I walked over very kindly and prepared to have a chat.
He couldn't understand people talking to him, but he was so proud of it that he could only remember one thing in English after searching his mind, and that was "ok".
The other party thought he understood what he said.
Ask him if he is Chinese. There is Chinatown in Los Angeles and there are many Chinese people there. He must go there and take a look. Chinese culture is great.
He replied "ok, ok."
The other party also said that Chinese people are welcome to travel to the United States.
He replied "ok, ok."
The other party then said that he was also welcome to visit his home, so that his daughter, who likes foreign cultures and has always wanted to travel to China, could learn more about the situation there.
He continued to answer "ok, ok."
The other party also introduced his family members to him, saying that there were four people and one dog. Unfortunately, his father passed away last month.
He didn't understand this, so he nodded "ok".
When the other party heard about it, he became angry and had an argument with the old man. He didn't know English and could only yell. Someone nearby noticed this and notified the patrol. As for what happened next, Su Mingzhe had already said it.
"You said that our dad...if he can't speak English, just keep his mouth shut. Isn't that frustrating?"
"Then why didn't you remind him? Talking casually in a different cultural background and language environment will cause trouble."
"I……"
Su Mingzhe was speechless.
"Stop talking so much, brother, I'll go in with you."
Su Mingyu was unwilling to wait outside with Lin Yue and suggested that she go with him to negotiate with the police.
Lin Yue was so happy that he opened the back door of the Subaru SUV next to him, got in, closed his eyes and rested his mind.
In the past half an hour or so, the brother and sister accompanied the old man and walked out.
"Dad, the police in the United States are different from the police in China. Don't yell if you encounter this kind of thing in the future."
"You think I think so, I whispered, they have to listen."
Su Mingyu said strangely: "You can speak loudly and they will understand? Don't take the porcelain job without the diamond. As far as I know, you are the first old man to be arrested by the police on the second day after coming to the United States. "
"Mingyu, don't talk to dad like this."
"Did I say something wrong? Just shut up if you don't understand. What's the point of saying OK? Fortunately, people are not as knowledgeable as you. What if you meet a terrorist and invite you to blow up the Pentagon, and you will answer 'ok' by then?" It’s not time to go to the police station and ask questions, it’s time for the FBI to come and invite you to tea.”
"Mingyu!" Su Mingzhe was annoyed: "Don't you see that dad is already very sad? He is still making sarcastic remarks here."
"cut."
Su Mingyu gave him a look that was too lazy to pay attention to, and walked to the passenger seat of the Subaru to get in.
Su Mingzhe helped Su Daqiang into the back seat and walked to the front to start driving.
"Mingcheng, are you here too?"
Su Daqiang looked pale and was taken away by the police in a foreign country. Although he did not suffer any crime, he must have been shocked.
Lin Yue held back his laughter and said, "Who will give you your passport and visa if I don't come?"
He remembered seeing a piece of news two years ago. The general content was that an old man caught a goose in the park and took it home to make soup for his daughter. Not long after, the police came to his door. Not only did he end up in the police station, but his daughter also had to pay Fine, at least Su Daqiang didn't trick his son to that point.
"Mingcheng, please tell me, is there something wrong with this American's brain? When we first met, he told me how many people there were in his family, and also said that his father died two days ago. Is there anyone who talks like this?"
"Yes, Americans are too stupid."
Su Mingzhe glared at him through the rearview mirror.
"Mingcheng, do you think this is fun?"
Lin Yue shrugged and stopped talking.
Su Daqiang said angrily: "Mingzhe, what... do you mean? Is Mingcheng wrong?"
Su Mingzhe thought for a while and decided that it would be better to keep his mouth shut, because he had to argue with Su Daqiang about the difference between Chinese thinking logic and American thinking logic, and he couldn't explain it clearly for two days and two nights.
…
It was already dark when the SUV drove back to the front of Su's house, and Su Mingzhe's face was quite dark because he happened to bump into Wu Fei, who was carrying Xiaomi and walking towards the front door.
Sure enough, Wu Fei said angrily as soon as he got off the car: "Su Mingzhe, what time will you come back? Xiaomi's teacher has called my work, and I can't contact you. I can only go to the boss." I took an hour off to pick up the kids by myself.”
"Feifei, I really didn't hear you. I was busy with my dad at the police station, so I didn't have time to pay attention to my cell phone."
"Police station?"
"Yes, dad had an argument with a white man this afternoon and was taken away by the police."
Wu Fei glanced at Su Daqiang, who was being helped out of the car by Lin Yue: "Su Mingzhe, I don't care what method you use, just send dad back to China as soon as possible. We can't afford such trouble."
Her voice was so low that only the couple could hear her.
But for some reason, a voice sounded beside the car.
"Old man, did you hear that? Your eldest daughter-in-law gave her husband an ultimatum. She said that their family cannot withstand such a torment and asked him to send you back to the country as soon as possible."
Su Mingzhe and Wu Fei's expressions changed.
"Mingcheng, how can you say that?"
"Why can't I say that?" Lin Yue said: "Is there any fun in pretending? It will only make your wife unhappy, and the old man will not feel comfortable living here. It would be great to make the problem clear."
Wu Fei looked embarrassed: "Dad, I didn't mean to chase you away, I meant..."
Lin Yue interrupted her: "It means that the environment here is not suitable for him, the language is not accessible, the eating habits are different, the cultural differences are too big, there are many problems, right? After all, don't we still have to send him back to the country? The difference is that if you don't want to bear the stigma, you can put on the cloak of 'I'm doing this for your own good' and feel at ease not to support the elderly."
"Su Mingcheng! You!"
"What am I? I haven't held you and your wife accountable for taking care of the old man to the police station. The American police often draw their guns when enforcing the law. Fortunately, the old man didn't have any problems. What if he gets frightened and becomes seriously ill or something? What do you still do? Do you have the nerve to accuse me of speaking out?" Lin Yue smiled coldly: "Actually, I am doing this for your own good. If you don't come up with a way to support the elderly while Su Mingyu is here, you will have the nerve to kick the old man out of the house as soon as she leaves. ? Even if the old man wants to go back, if Su Mingyu, like the previous boss, says that it is temporarily inconvenient for the old man to return to the country, wouldn’t you be dumb and unable to tell the story of your suffering? "
"Mingcheng, how could you..."
Su Mingzhe was only halfway through his words when Wu Fei punched him on the lower back. When he turned around and met that threatening look, he wilted.
"Mingcheng's words make sense, Mingyu, what do you think?"
As the saying goes, don't slap someone in the face, don't expose someone's shortcomings when you scold someone, Wu Fei doesn't like this brother-in-law, but if you think about it carefully, it really makes sense. Yesterday, the old man said that he would go back to China and wait for Su Mingzhe to find a job before coming over, but he only stayed for one day. He has caused so much unhappiness and trouble. If he really wants to take care of his old age here in the future, then the good life between her and Su Mingzhe is over. So why should the boss shoulder the responsibility of supporting the old man? Doesn't Su Mingyu have any responsibility?
Su Mingyu gritted her teeth and stared at Lin Yue, wishing she could kill that scumbag: "Sister-in-law, can't you see? Su Mingcheng is sowing discord."
