Chapter Eighty-Eight: Madame's Abilities

Mrs. Kang's shingles gradually improved, and she was very grateful to Shen Mengxi for her treatment.

"Alas, chanting Buddha is not a complete elimination of all diseases."

"A calm mind can cure fifty diseases." Shen Mengxi smiled and amused.

The two often chat while busy, you must know that the orphanage has dozens of mouths, large and small, all waiting to eat, the daily consumption of rice and grain is a sum, and the government has a certain amount of food subsidies every month, but the Kang family does not have it, and the rent they paid is far from enough for food.

Her feelings about Shen Mengxi are very complicated, on the one hand, Shen Mengxi is a friend of her daughter-in-law, her junior, and on the other hand, she is the benefactor of the whole family, and she can't repay the kindness in her life. What is rare is that this Miss Zhang never takes credit, she does everything properly, and gives her enough face as an old lady.

After Mrs. Kang's illness recovered, she began to follow Shen Mengxi behind the children, doing intermittent exercises once in the morning and afternoon. Shen Mengxi said that her immunity has decreased because of her eating disorders and emotional stress over the years, which has led to a decline in her physique. The old lady didn't expect to improve her diet, so she exercised more.

Shen Mengxi admires Mrs. Kang's tenacity very much, a person can enjoy happiness, endure hardships, and not be shocked by humiliation, only then can he really live and understand.

"There is a certain amount of blessing a person can enjoy." Mrs. Kang sighed and said, "People like me enjoy happiness first, and only endure hardships when they are old, but in the end, they are still unlucky." ”

"The encounters in the past few years have indeed reminded us that we should cherish our blessings. However, this is not the final end, your grandchildren are all smart and clever, and your blessings will be in them in the future. Shen Mengxi said with a smile.

Mrs. Kang was very happy to hear her praise of her grandson, "I borrowed your auspicious words!" Miss Zhang, your child"

"My son is now in the United States, and now he is working, he is an engineer, we haven't been in touch for a long time, and the last letter was received for a long time last year, and I don't know if he received my letter or not." Shen Mengxi missed Ah Huan a little, and he said in his letter that he had a Malaysian girlfriend and was a very good girl.

Li Ruoyun was still depressed, and Shen Mengxi had the heart to find her some antidepressant drugs, but she was very resistant and had to give up.

On this day, Lin Huiya whispered a word in Shen Mengxi's ear.

"Jiayu, I'm pregnant."

Shen Mengxi opened his mouth wide and looked at Lin Huiya with blinking eyes.

"Hey, as for it?"

Shen Mengxi came back to his senses and hugged her, "Great, great!" Your body is now fully recovered, and having a healthy baby is no problem at all! Congratulations! Huiya! ”

Lin Huiya pursed her lips and smiled, "Thank you!" ”

Shen Mengxi smiled and waved her hands indiscriminately, thinking in her heart that everything is not unchangeable, and Lin Huiya is a ready-made example.

The bombing by Japanese planes sometimes comes once every half a month, sometimes once every three days, and the time period is uncertain, sometimes in the morning, sometimes in the middle of the night. For the sake of safety, Lin Huiya asked for leave to raise the baby at home, and Liang Cheng worked as usual.

Shen Mengxi took on the heavy responsibility of taking care of pregnant women, and she had a full schedule of work every day, and she had no time to write, nor did she have time to miss and worry about Wang Shouqing. Mrs. Kang told her that worry is a curse, as long as she always thinks about her family getting better and better, she will really get better and better, and said to Shen Mengxi with mixed feelings, "The children and grandchildren I care about the most are gone, and my favorite eldest daughter-in-law is gone." The remaining two, not afraid of your jokes, I didn't think much of them before. Shengyi is too strong and not gentle and humble enough, but now it seems that when it comes to major events, at least one of the women in the family must have such a temperament. Without her, this home would have been over a long time ago. After speaking, he glanced at his second daughter-in-law with hatred.

Shen Mengxi became more and more convinced that there was an old man in the family, and there was a treasure. Everyone who has experienced the baptism of the years has their own wisdom of life and merits, although Shen Mengxi himself has feelings, he is still willing to listen to the experience of others.

"Just listen to you, I think about it every day, and all of us will get better and better!" This is not blind believing, but years of experience that have made Shen Mengxi believe that all beliefs, prayers and curses are powerful, just as people have a magnetic field.

Wang Shouqing once brought back two letters, saying that there were winners and losers in the war, that he was not injured, that everything was fine, and that he should not read it.

In the straight man's letter, there was not a single decent thought, only that she should take good care of herself and not be too tired.

Shen Mengxi was influenced by Mrs. Kang, no longer considering the meaning behind the words, and sincerely thought that everything was fine, and whoever asked answered that he was not injured, everything was fine!

At the end of November, Shen Mengxi read the news in the "Central Daily", "Mrs. Jiang arrived in New York for medical treatment and became a guest of the White House", she remembered that last time Song Ziwen had inadvertently mentioned that Mrs. Jiang suffered from urticaria, which could not be cured for a long time, and she had serious stomach problems, and she was very distressed.

Shen Mengxi only knew that Mrs. Jiang's speech in the United States attracted a lot of "sponsorship", and it turned out that she went to the United States so early in advance for treatment.

Hives and stomach problems have a common feature that they are affected by emotions, and in general, anxiety can lead to skin problems, stomach ulcers, and even low immunity. Come to think of it, Mrs. Jiang's psychological pressure has also been very great over the years.

In the new year, the newspaper said that Mrs. Jiang gave a speech in the US Congress, causing a great sensation. Since then, she has given many speeches in Boston, Chicago, San Francisco, Los Angeles and other major cities, and her speeches are always packed, and hundreds of people shed tears for her speeches. She also returned to her alma mater and was warmly welcomed.

After eight months, Mrs. Jiang returned with honors, and Chairman Jiang praised her abilities, which were worthy of 20 army divisions.

Mrs. Jiang's visit to the United States enabled China to receive tens of millions of support, and Chairman Jiang was also invited to attend the Cairo Conference, and because of her visit, the United States repealed the "Chinese Exclusion Act," which had lasted for 60 years.

Shen Mengxi does not think that the United States' support for China is all due to Mrs. Jiang's personal charm, and the most practical Americans will not casually pay for it just because of a few outstanding speeches, probably because the biggest enemy of the United States at present is Germany, and they want to use China to contain Japan to avoid fighting with Japan, and Mrs. Jiang's visit to the United States happened to be a period when Americans were full of respect and sympathy for China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, so she was courteous everywhere.

But Shen Mengxi knew that Mrs. Jiang's route to the United States was a hump route known for its danger, and countless planes had crashed on this route.

After Mrs. Jiang returned to Chongqing, she visited the front-line officers and soldiers, organized women's activities, and visited all the public orphanages.

Fortunately, Mrs. Jiang learned that Shen Mengxi had remarried, and specially blessed her, and when she saw the big belly and slightly swollen face of Lin Huiya, a talented woman in the Republic of China, she also asked about her health with special concern.

Shen Mengxi observed that her skin and stomach problems seemed to be cured, and her whole person was good and her spirit was flying.

I guess my mood is better, and my body is better.
