Back to 1995

Chapter 46

"Yeah, I know I'm busy, just like your old man Greg, who's been busy all his life and hasn't been busy for anything!"

Dana used the tone of a Latino aunt, and yelled at Gallo, and even Greg took advantage of the opportunity. The church she often goes to recently has many people who came from Mexico.

"And you, Song, you have to follow..."

On Song Yang's side, Dana didn't let her go, but when she turned around and saw what was in the jewelry box that Song Yang gave her, Dana suddenly exclaimed, "Oh, God..."

Looking at the jewelry box in front of her was a tree-shaped brooch made of platinum, with a small gem at the end of the brooch, looking at the jewelry box in front of her, Daana exclaimed, "It's too precious, it's more expensive than cloth. The brooch worn by Mrs. Li is much more beautiful!"

Although it is too expensive to say it directly, the joy in Daana’s eyes cannot be concealed. Which woman does not like shiny things? That Mrs. Brown is the wife of Dr. Brown who diagnosed Song Yang when Song Yang just arrived in America. At an important party, I saw her wearing it.

"You deserve it!" Song Yang said to Daana, and put the brooch under Daana's shoulders. Daana has taken good care of the original body for so many years, otherwise Song Yang might not be able to come here at all.

Dana touched the exquisitely shaped brooch, and muttered, "You should change into new clothes!"

"This is the best gift I've received in so many years. Except when I was just married, Greg didn't give me another gift. Gallo, you and your father, if only half as good as Song..."

Gallo, who was lying on the gun again, held back and couldn't speak. If he had Song Yang's worth, he would also give it away, but he had a poor life in a racing company a few years ago, and it would be good if he could support himself. Recently, it was because of being a logistics supervisor at Double-click Company that he had a little bit of money in his pocket.

After giving it to Dana, Song Yang found another box of gifts from the bag and threw it to Gallo.

After Gallo took it, he opened it and saw the watch inside, and immediately called out to Song Yang, "Song, I knew you wouldn't forget me!"

Gallo looked at the men's watch in his hand, which was at least worth more than three thousand dollars.

Greg, Millia, Logan and others who came back later all received gifts from Song Yang.

Song Yang gave Greg a box of high-quality Cuban cigars. Although Greg still had a sullen face, just like Daana, he said a few words to Song Yang, but when he saw that he got the cigars, he put them away. If he hides it in the study, he will know whether he likes this box or not.

For Miriam, it is a Barbie doll of the "Mattel" brand, which is said to be owned by every little girl in America, and a Disney princess toy. The scream made Song Yang's ears unbearable.

Millia, who got the Barbie doll, was almost clinging to Song Yang. She had talked about it in front of Song Yang for countless times, but she didn't expect that Song Yang really bought it for her today.

In the past, Greg and Dana didn't pay attention to her wish at all, even if they couldn't get this as a Christmas gift, it was nothing else, these two things cost hundreds of dollars, and it can only be said that girls and children get money, and sure enough is the easiest to earn.

"Logan, this is yours!"

Song Yang gave a Fender guitar to his cheap cousin. Although he was not as close to Logan as Gallo and Miria, but with Greck and Daana around, it was impossible for Song Yang to miss his gift.

Looking at the guitar that Song Yang brought over, Logan wanted to shirk it, but he couldn't say it out loud. Don't look at him, he seems to be a bit of a maverick. He is not very close to Song Yang, Gallo or even Miria, and he is focused on learning. on, but has a soft spot for the guitar.

Every weekend, Logan spends an afternoon squatting in the suburbs of Houston with a guitar he bought from a second-hand store. Song Yang's guitar is much better than his second-hand guitar.

For dinner, Song Yang, Gallo and others were finally here today, and Dana, who was in a good mood, cooked a sumptuous Italian-style dinner and set a large table full.

After serving Song Yang a large plate of pasta, Dana turned to the crowd, mainly staring at Song Yang and Gallo. After all, it was mainly because they did not come back during this time, "This Sunday, we will go to church together. I mentioned that I haven't seen you for a long time!"

After Song Yang heard this, he exchanged glances with Greg, and then at Gallo. He didn't show any expression when he saw this guy, and just buried himself in cooking. Obviously, like Song Yang, he wasn't too interested in going there.

Andrew specifically mentioned it to Dana, and it must not be for no reason. After Song Yang took a bite, he said to Dana, "I want to establish a small charitable foundation, and I want Aunt Dana to be the president of the foundation. Donate a sum of money to the church, and do some community charity activities!"

Hearing that Song Yang asked her to be the person in charge of the charitable foundation, Daana refused at first, but then she couldn't help being moved. She has also done some charitable activities for so many years, and met those who do charitable and public welfare foundations. His status is very high and he is quite popular. It would be a lie to say that he is not moved at all.

"It can be done, the charity foundation will cooperate with the church first!"

Hearing that Greg also supported it, Dana was even more moved, "Then I'll try first."

In America, the church is a very special existence, especially in the community. It can be related to almost everyone. That Pastor Andrew, who specifically mentioned Song Yang in front of Dana, actually reminded Song Yang, Donations are required.

There are countless people donating to the church in America, no matter how much they are worth, the rich donate a lot, in fact, they hope to gain some fame.

In the past, the Greck family used to donate hundreds of dollars every year, and even those families living in poverty are also donating. Apart from the pious people, there is another important reason, that is, it is profitable!

The church has huge assets in its hands. It has established church schools and hospitals. It also cooperates with the local municipal government and food companies to distribute relief food and provide medical assistance all year round. Go to the school where you teach, and those who have no money to eat can still receive free food.

This gives the church a huge influence. People like Adrian must have the endorsement of pastors when running for election. They rely on these pastors to vote for those who support them. Some priests in large dioceses can even influence the local political arena. The influence is astonishing. .

Regardless of Song Yang's belief in this thing or not, it is impossible to bypass it in America, a region where all people believe in religion.

Greg obviously thought of this, so he asked Daana to join the charity foundation established by Song Yang.

Not only churches, but there will probably be an endless stream of organizations and teams asking Song Yang for money in the future. Establishing a charitable foundation in advance will also save these troubles.

Moreover, in the future, it is inconvenient to make donations in the name of Song Yang, such as providing large amounts of funds for people like Adrian, etc., can be carried out through this charity association, and it can also be tax-free. No wonder those billionaires in America are so keen on it. Charity, this is such a top-notch business!
"I'm getting ready to buy a new property..."

"Song, are you leaving here now, leaving us?"

Before Song Yang finished speaking, Daana cried out in surprise, even shedding tears. Ever since she saw the local TV station news in Houston reporting Song Yang's worth, Daana had expected it, but she didn't expect it to happen so quickly. .

Millia, who was still holding a Barbie doll in her arms, heard that Song Yang was going to move out, and for a moment Barbie didn't care about it anymore. She got off the chair, ran to Song Yang's side, and pulled Song Yang's clothes, pitifully said, "Don't you want Miria?"

Song Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hugged Millia, "It's just a real estate, just change to a better house, you and everyone can move there, Dana!"

"There are private schools in the community over there, so that Millia and Logan can get a better education and be able to enter the famous Ivy League schools in the future!"

Parents all over the world are actually the same. Originally, Greck and Dana didn't want to go with them, but when they heard that Millia and Logan could go to a better school and receive a better education, neither of them objected anymore. , they don't want what happened to Gallo to happen again.

Both Gleick and Dana believed that when Gallo gave up going to college, it was because he got mixed up with those cronies and his brains were kicked by a donkey, so he tore up the letter of recommendation. root, you won't run into those gangsters.

"Gallo, you can run for a few days and find a suitable villa!" Song Yang said to Gallo.

Upon hearing this, Gallo patted his chest and immediately assured, "Leave this on me!"

After eating, Song Yang just returned to the room when he saw Logan coming in. Logan, who was always a bit bored, seemed to be struggling for a while, and then he said to Song Yang, "Song, that car is your new one. Is it?!"

Logan's knowledge is too shallow, and Song Yang knows what he wants to say as soon as he hears it, and his skin is too thin. If it were Gallo, he would have already reached out to ask Song Yang for the car keys at this time.

Song Yang threw the keys of the Ferrari F50 to Logan, "Slow down on the road and let Gallo follow!"

"I see!" Logan hurriedly caught the key. He originally thought that it would be great if he could sit on it and go for a drive. Unexpectedly, Song Yang threw the car key to him directly.

Looking at Logan's figure, Logan Song Yang shook his head, went back to the room and began to tidy up his things. The chances of him coming to this house will become less and less in the future.

When Song Yang was busy at Greg's house, Irene just returned home. As soon as she entered the door, a middle-aged man with an elegant and gentle temperament sat on the sofa and asked Irene, "It's getting later and later. , are you busy in the new company?"

Irene called the middle-aged man her father, and then, unlike the serious style she maintained in the company, she ran errands and sat next to the middle-aged man. She squeezed her shoulder twice, "It's a little bit, there are new projects recently!"
