The excitement of the trip was ruined, and Shen Mengxi simply bought a ticket to New York and went to find Ah Huan.

Huan's wife is a Chinese Indonesian named Han Shanni, and her father is a businessman in the mineral and oil business. They are alumni, the process of meeting and falling in love, Shen Mengxi is not very clear, she was in Chongqing in those years, and it was very rare to receive letters from A Huan. When Ah Huan returned to Shanghai after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, they had been married for a year, and Shen Mengxi did not show displeasure, after all, his son was already old and had reached the marriageable age, and in such a war years, he could not be demanding. But to be honest, I still feel a little uncomfortable in my heart, and the baby who worked hard to raise has become someone's husband.

Ah Huan explained twice, and her daughter-in-law also apologized, and Shen Mengxi said with great sincerity every time, "You are better than anything else!" She has experience, and after this time, Ah Huan's closest relatives have become the women around him.

"Sanny, how are you doing?" Shen Mengxi let go of Sunny's hand, hesitated for a moment, but still asked.

"Mom, I'm in good health." Sanny replied with a smile.

"I think you're having a baby, less than two months old."

Ah Huan and Sunny were stunned and looked at each other, they had been married for two years and had no children.

"Sanny, Mom is a doctor, very powerful!" Ah Huan said proudly, he had no doubt about Shen Mengxi's words, "Mom said that you are pregnant, you must be pregnant!" ”

After saying that, he picked up Sanny and turned around excitedly.

Sunny looked surprised, covered her mouth, and cried and laughed.

The next day, Sunny wanted to go to the hospital for a check-up, but was stopped by Ah Huan, who looked at his mother hesitantly, worried that such an act would make her sad. Shen Mengxi didn't mind, let them feel free. She put on her backpack and went shopping.

Flat shoes, wide-legged pants, sports cap and sunglasses, Shen Mengxi was very comfortable, and he didn't come back until dark, and when he entered the door, he saw his son and daughter-in-law sitting relatively dry, and after asking, he knew that the hospital had not given a definitive conclusion.

"Oh, the days are too shallow, it's normal that you can't find out, wait for another half a month, and you'll almost have a reaction. Just be careful not to exercise vigorously lately. Shen Mengxi finished speaking and went back to the room.

"Is Mom angry?" Shanni asked Huan in a whisper.

Ah Huan shook her head, "Mom is not so stingy, she is not angry." But you have to trust her more in the future. ”

Sannie looked at her husband with a wrinkled nose, "You're so nice to your mother. ”

"I'll be good to you in the future."

Shen Mengxi cooked a few meals with her own hands and gave them to her son and daughter-in-law, to be honest, she made it for Ah Huan, and by the way, let Shanni eat it, no matter how generous and rational her mother-in-law is, it is like that, unless she doesn't love her son.

Ah Huan and Sunny Niang ate very well, the last time they went back to Shanghai, they all ate the food cooked by Sister-in-law Lin, this time Shen Mengxi did it himself, and they ate happily.

This night, they barbecued in the yard, they skewered meat skewers, vegetables, sausages, chicken wings, the aroma spread, attracting the surrounding neighbors, all Chinese, speaking accents from all over the country to greet, Ah Huan is usually busy with work, and they are not very familiar with them, Shen Mengxi came for a few days, and they mingled, everyone sat down to eat and drink, very happy.

Two weeks later, Sunny gained about two pounds, she smiled helplessly at Ah Huan, Ah Huan said that it was good to have meat, and she immediately laughed again. Shen Mengxi couldn't help but roll his eyes.

Sunny's menstrual period was still delayed, they went to the hospital again for a checkup, this time they came back with good news, the two smiled, Sunny hugged Shen Mengxi's arm and said, "Mom, you are amazing!" I believe what you say in the future! ”

Then she jumped up and down to send a telegram to her parents with the good news. Ah Huan couldn't help shouting, "Shanny, don't jump!" Don't jump! ”

Shen Mengxi rolled his eyes again.

Ah Huan ran back excitedly, hugged her mother, and buried her head in her shoulder, which soon became wet. Shen Mengxi gently patted his back and shook his body slowly.

When Wang Shouqing finally came to New York, Shanni was almost about to give birth, and Shen Mengxi also met more Chinese friends, she contributed to Huamei Weekly, wrote some words every day, and made some delicious food for the children in her spare time, or gathered with neighbors, drank tea, and played mahjong.

Wang Shouqing saw his radiant wife, his heart was so sour, for most of the past half a year, she just sent a routine telegram to greet him three times, and she didn't urge him a word, as if he was a dispensable ornament.

Due to identity restrictions, he was not allowed to leave the country after resigning at the beginning of the year, and it was not until the war situation was tense that he found an opportunity to go to Hong Kong and transfer to New York via Europe. Mr. and Mrs. Zhang Xinhuai and Mr. Zhang went to San Francisco a few months ago, and they will come to New York to visit them once they have settled down.

Ah Huan hugged him, "Uncle Wang!" You're here! ”

Ah Huan was as close to him as he was a child, which made him very happy. Seeing that Xiao Ahuan was about to become a father, he was very emotional. Shen Mengxi thought that he probably didn't have a biological child, so he couldn't help but soften his heart and hugged him, "Why did you come?" ”

Wang Shouqing immediately became even more happy, "Alas, I can't help myself, isn't this coming!" ”

Shen Mengxi made hand-rolled noodles by himself, and made fried sauce with the recipe of Master Fan of Beiping, and several people ate it happily.

In the evening, Wang Shouqing hugged Shen Mengxi and said, "Eat the noodles you made, I know that I won't have any nostalgia, you are there, there is home, it is hometown." ”

"Yo, who trained this, it's like smearing bee feces on your mouth." Shen Mengxi pretended to be sour.

"Hahaha!" Wang Shouqing laughed.

In the other bedroom, Shanni leaned on Ah Huan, "Only the Chinese in China can show the extraordinary Chinese, we bamboo students are already four different, you see Uncle Lin, Uncle Wang, they are all such stylish people!" Moreover, I can feel that Uncle Wang really cares about his mother. ”

"I know. Mom will be very happy in the future. ”

Shanni hummed and put her head on Huan's chest.

Two months later, a little life was added to the family, it was a girl, Ah Huan said that the child looked like a grandmother, and Shen Mengxi himself did not agree very much. But she really likes this child very much, and it doesn't make sense that the blood connection is like this. As long as you see her, you will unconsciously open the corners of your mouth and squint your eyes.

Shanni was a little apprehensive, she knew that Ah Huan was the third generation of the family, for fear that her mother-in-law would not like it, Shen Mengxi had to tell her very clearly, "Shanni, I prefer girls!" ”

Sanny bowed her head and said, "Mom, in a few years, I will have another life." Shen Mengxi didn't know how to answer.

There are two nannies at home, the child is very healthy, very easy to bring, every day the little face changes the same look, more and more moist and full, Wang Shouqing loves it very much, but he doesn't dare to hug her, just when his wife is holding her, he is teasing the child next to him.

Ah Huan asked the mother to name the child, Shen Mengxi thought for a while and said, you should choose it yourself, I will give it a nickname.

In the end, the child was named Xu Jiahui, Shen Mengxi covered his face when he heard it, Xu Jiahui?

She gave the child a nickname called Lele, and only hoped that she would be happy and happy.

Three months later, Zhang Jiaxuan and Zhang Xinhuai arrived in New York, just in time for the 100th day of Lele, and their relatives were reunited in a foreign country, and they were very excited. Especially Zhang Xinhuai and his wife, when they saw Ah Huan, they couldn't help but think of Xu Shizhe, Han Xiangmei drank an extra glass at dinner at night, and even cried and sprinkled the wine on the ground, "Shizhe, you left so early, look, you are a grandfather!" ”

Zhang Xinhuai smiled a little embarrassedly, and Shen Mengxi and Wang Shouqing also laughed, indicating that they didn't mind.

Ah Huan was in tears.

The two families gave Lele a meeting gift, stayed for a few days, and Shen Mengxi and his wife returned to San Francisco with them.

Han Shanni doesn't work, and the family has hired three maids, and this family does not need two hostesses, so although Ah Huan is very reluctant, Shen Mengxi still left enough dollars for Ah Huan and went to San Francisco to support the elderly with old friends and relatives in style.
