After Meihui was discharged from the hospital, she lived in Zhong's house and slept on the one-meter-five-wide double bed that Zhongshan used before she got married. The mother said, "Xiaoshanzi, if you are too crowded, you can live in my house, and I will move to your father's room." ”

Zhong Shan thought that his family of three moved back to live, but it was also an unexpected gain for his parents who had lived separately for many years, so he happily agreed.

At night, the little one sucked enough milk and fell asleep peacefully. Mei Hui'an put the baby away, took her husband's hand and refused to let him go. Zhong Shan actually didn't want to leave, he didn't seem to have accepted the reality of being a first-time father, he always seemed to be wandering in a dream these days, and only by grabbing Mie's hand did he feel that all this was real.

Zhong Shan turned off the lights and lay down beside Mie, the two holding hands. After being silent for a long time, Zhong Shan said: "On the day you gave birth to the baby, did it really hurt so much that I couldn't bear it, I had never heard you scold people like that before." ”

Meihui said: "It hurts really much, the culprit is you, who don't scold you!" But now that I think about it, I seem to have forgotten how it hurts. When the pain in the delivery room was unbearable, I secretly made up my mind that I would never have a child again in my life. But now, looking at the cute baby, I want to give him another little sister. ”

Zhong Shan said: "You are typical, you forget the pain of the scar!" ”

Meihui smiled in the dark, took her husband's hand again, and said, "Zhong Shan, you say, our mother, I mean the mother who gave birth to us, wasn't she also pregnant in October back then, and she gave birth to us because of the pain, how can you be ruthless and willing to give us away?" ”

Mie's question suddenly poked the most secret sore spot in Zhong Shan's heart, and he squeezed Mie's hand fiercely, which hurt her, but he shed tears in the dark. He admired Mie's straightforwardness, and he could face his life experience so calmly, but he couldn't do it, and every time he approached this topic, he was so frightened that he quickly slipped away.

After a long time, Zhong Shan calmed down and said, "I think they should have encountered great difficulties and had to do it as a last resort." ”

This night, because their conversation touched on the most sensitive topics in their lives, because of the sympathetic closeness that arose from the common fate with Mie, or perhaps because the blood of the two merged into a wonderful little life, Zhong Shan suddenly felt that he and Mie had a kind of kinship that transcended love. He couldn't help but put Mie's head in the crook of his arm.

The more the two of them talked, they lost their sleepiness. From the first time I heard about my different life experience from my friends from others, I talked about my unremitting exploration of the mystery of my life experience in the past 20 years; From the meticulous care of the adoptive parents, to their deep emotional fear of losing their adopted child; From the first acquaintance in cram school, to the first time to hold hands in the grove, to the first kiss in this room, to the night in the Lin family in a daze she was pulled to "see the sea"......

A week later, after taking care of the old man's funeral, Meihui's parents hurried back from the countryside. Looking at the little grandson who was tender and tender, and then looking at her daughter who ate as much as a cow after giving birth, Meihui's mother actually cried, chattering while crying and expressing remorse: "My daughter gave birth to such a big thing, but I, the mother, was not around, and I didn't help at all." I have delivered thousands of babies in obstetrics and gynecology all my life, but I missed the birth of my little grandson. ”

Zhong Shan's mother persuaded: "You are really useless to be a grandmother, it is a great joy to hold your grandson, you should be happy, why are you still crying." ”

The two mothers stared at their little grandson and Sun Ai not enough to see enough, this said that the little nose was like Zhong Shan, the other said that the big eyes were like Meihui, this said that the ears were big like Zhong Shan, and the other said that the little feet were slender like Meihui, in short, try to find the genetics of their children in the little guy as much as possible. In the eyes of the two old ladies, this little grandchild is the best-looking child in the world who has absorbed all the advantages of his parents impeccably.

Seeing the two mothers dancing happily, Zhongshan and Mie glanced at each other, as if to say: You shouldn't talk about your life experience behind their backs that night, that would be a great rebellion against them.

After visiting their little grandchildren, the two fathers exited the crowded room and came to the living room to sit on the sofa. Zhong Shulin took out a teapot and made a pot of the big red robe brought by his old comrade-in-arms from Fujian for his in-law Lin Qingquan.

Zhong Shulin poured a cup of tea for his in-laws, poured another cup for himself, and said with a smile: "It's not time to eat the full moon wine yet, let's replace the wine with tea first, congratulations on our promotion to grandpa!" ”

Lin Qingquan was also very happy, and said: "At first, my wife was hesitant to have this child, for fear that the unexpected pregnancy would be unhealthy, so I resolutely voted against it." If you sit in the womb, it is a small life, how can you say don't want it. Practice has proved that he is a very good child! ”

Zhong Shulin didn't know that there was this episode, so he hurriedly raised his glass again and said, "In this way, I have to respect your brother even more, and thank him for his grandfather's rescue under the knife for my little grandson." ”

Both of them burst out laughing, and with the chatter and laughter of the women in the hut, the three-bedroom apartment of the Zhong family, which had been deserted for many years, had never been as lively as it is now.
