1984 days when she disappeared

"Fuck, fuck! Oh fuck! Ahhhhhhhhhhhh help me...!!"

The howling of ghosts and wolves in the kitchen lasted for a minute, Zheng Nan threw the pen away, unable to bear it any longer.

"Can you please?" Before he could finish his sentence, a dead fish with its belly ripped open flipped and flew towards him, "Damn it!" Zheng Nanfei kicked the fish back, "Ahhh!" Cen Jin Howling, she took off and turned 180 degrees on the spot when she landed on the oil stains, "Grab it, grab it!" she was still howling.

"How many times have I said not to buy living things, you can't handle it at all!" Zheng Nan growled.

"This is a resurrection creature, it jumped out of the pot, okay!!" Cen Jin slid behind Zhengnan, "Good son, grab it, mom will buy you a full set of soldiers!"

"Shut up! My mother is sleeping!" Zheng Nan lowered his voice, and the dead fish rolled over again. He dodged and the fish kicked up against Cen Jin's feet.

"Ahhh! Catch it, little bastard!" Cen Jin scrambled while clutching his head, Zheng Nan turned into the light of righteousness, "I can catch it, but I can't put a living thing into the frying pan!"

"As a man, what you should do is protect your mother instead of acting as a charity ambassador!" Cen Jin was about to die of anger at this brat, Zheng Nan lowered his voice again, "If you really want to protect my mother, don't bark, my mother Just fell asleep!"

"Are we talking about the same mother! Didn't I just cook fish soup for your mother?" Cen Jin ran all over the kitchen, and the unjust fish stared at her as if he was dying. He came in with sleepy eyes, calmly grabbed the live dead fish, rinsed it in the sink, and threw it into the pot.

Cen Jin was about to express his admiration to his wife when Siting yawned and turned away.

Zhengnan spread his hands, "Look, it's like this again, there isn't a day when you don't wake me up." After finishing speaking, he left.

Gritting his teeth, Cen Jin added water and seasonings to the pot, and said, "I must clean up this little beast today."

The first snow fell in Boston on the weekend, and Zhengnan went back to his room to continue painting.

This child is ten years old this year. He is in the fourth grade of elementary school. He looks gentle and gentle. He wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. His face is still a little pale, but he has a strong physique. He is 1.5 meters tall and looks like a big child.

Cen Jin knocked on the table, "Come, let's talk."

Zhengnan looked at the apron on her waist, and frowned speechlessly, "It really doesn't suit you to wear this."

"Ha, why isn't it suitable?" Cen Jin thought to himself that he was born with broad shoulders, narrow waist and long legs, so he couldn't handle an apron?

"You don't have enough cooking skills to get enough equipment, what do you mean?" Zheng Nan glanced at her from above his glasses and smiled slightly.

"No... Cen Zhengnan, let me ask you, do you have any objections to me?" Jin's mother was about to explode, Zhengnan raised her index finger again, "Hush—let my mother sleep for a while, I beg you."

"A Jin—" Siting dragged his voice to call out, Cen Jin stared, "Wait for me to come back and deal with you!"

In the bedroom, Si Ting stretched out her snow-white round arms, and Cen Jin went to bed to hug her, "I woke you up, go to sleep."

"I want to hug." Si Ting's voice was waxy, and he got into her arms, "I'm so sleepy, I can't open my eyes."

"Well, it's normal to have reactions during pregnancy." Cen Jin patted her lightly, feeling distressed.

Since he came to Harvard as a visiting scholar last year, Cen Jin brought Siting and Zhengnan to Boston together.In the past two years, the advertising industry was sluggish. Siting took the time to dispose of the company's shares and set up Xinsijin Investment Company, freed from the tedious daily affairs, just in time to have a child.

The mother cell was from Cen Jin, and the other cell was purchased locally.After some twists and turns, the little fertilized egg was finally conceived and formed in Siting's body. Now Siting is pregnant with Liujia, and she vomited badly in the first half, and fell asleep again this month. Cen Jin took care of the elder and younger by herself. A real life challenge.

"Let's hire a Filipino maid," Siting said, "The last one is not good, but not all of them are bad. You will get overwhelmed like this."

Cen Jin nodded, "Let's talk about it." The Filipino maid he hired before had dirty hands and feet, and he played tricks when he was caught. Cen Jin was afraid of hurting his wife and children, so he never hired another one.

"It would be great if my mother could come," Siting said, "Oh, I forgot to find the old man."

Cen Jin couldn't help laughing, Liu Qin and Lao Li's twilight love was in full swing, and after three years of marriage they were still inseparable.Originally said he would come, but Lao Li couldn't get a visa, and Liu Qin kept procrastinating.

Cen Jin touched her swollen belly, her body was still so soft and tender, due to pregnancy, she had faint freckles under her eyelids, making her look even more playful and cute, Cen Jin kissed her, Si Ting naturally shrank into her arms, and soon I fell asleep again.

Cen Jin was also sleepy, and suddenly smelled a burnt aroma, and she rushed to the kitchen, where the fire had been turned off in Zhengnan, and she was watching a pot of "fish soup" that had been boiled dry.

"As expected." Zhengnan shrugged and smiled again.

The boy's English teacher was an Englishman, and in the past year he had learned a nice Cockney accent, as well as British sarcasm.

What can Cen Jin say, dead fish won't come back to life, and there's nothing wrong with remaking a pot, so he can only order a few dishes from a Chinese restaurant - this is the third time this week, no wonder Zheng Nan doesn't like her.

"Come out with me and buy some fruit for your mother." Cen Jin said.

Zhengnan puts on his coat obediently - as long as he buys something for his mother, he never talks back, but this mother must be Siting's mother.

The mother and son went to the supermarket on the thin snow, and turned into a coffee shop on the way back. Cen Jin ordered a cup of hot chocolate for Zheng Nan.

"Let me ask you, why are you always against me?" Cen Jin asked after sitting down.

"As expected." Zheng Nan showed an unruly smile again, knowing that Jin's mother wanted to avoid his mother and teach him alone, chocolate is not free.

"You asked me to play with you, but that's not the case when I bought you something," Cen Jin said, "Your behavior is like a bird's bow."

"Toofar. At most, you can call him a rabbit dead dog." Zheng Nan laughed after finishing speaking, and Cen Jin was also angrily laughed at by him.

Strange to say, the child's temperament grew more and more like her.Loves reading, drawing, and playing chess. He can read a lot at such a young age. He is very fluent in English, ancient Chinese and Chinese. He is definitely a good seed in learning.

But when it comes to feelings, he is on Siting's side."My mother" is always on his lips all day long, and he only calls Cen Jin "Mom Jin", and more often calls him "A Jin", saying that he learned from the Americans and everyone is equal.He usually calls Jin's mother to play ball and swim with him, and when he's done playing, he yells "buy my mom a cake", "my mom loves tacos"...

"Hey, do you know what I like to eat?" Cen Jin asked.

Jeongnam blinked, "burnedfish"

Cen Jin wanted to kick him away, Zheng Nan smiled for a while, rubbed her shoulders, "I know you love celery dumplings."

This is more or less the same, alas, the son is satisfied with a sweet date, no wonder she can't get up in the ranking.

"Childish", Zheng Nan said, "Still jealous of his own wife."

Hey little brat... "I'm not jealous, I just hope you care about your parents equally." Cen Jin said.

"Who is my father?" Zhengnan asked, his eyes shining behind the lens.

Cen Jin looked at him, this was the third time that Zhengnan asked this question in a month, and she avoided it the first two times, but Zhengnan's expression at this moment showed that he didn't ask casually.

"Why do you ask that?" Cen Jin said.

Zhengnan's eyelashes drooped slightly, "The younger brother is your child, and his father is American. If I am also your child, I must also have a father."

Cen Jin silently sipped his coffee.Si Ting was pregnant with a boy, and the process of making a test-tube baby was complicated. Zheng Nan heard many things, and he didn't know what fermented in his little brain.

"Is this question important to you?" Cen Jin asked.

Zhengnan nodded.

"Have you asked your mother?" Cen Jin asked.

"I know I'm not her child," Zhengnan said, "I don't look like her at all."

Cen Jin was startled.They never disclosed Zhengnan's life experience at home, but when the child grows up, he can think for himself.

"Go home and talk to you slowly." Cen Jin said.

"Go home and make up stories with my mother?" Zhengnan smiled sarcastically, "Be careful."

Cen Jin's heart sank, but he pinched his ear and cursed, "If you talk to me like that again, do you believe I'll cut you?"

Zheng Nan was carried out of the coffee shop by her, and suddenly gave her a stumbling block, "Cut me, try!"

Cen Jin managed to stand still, and immediately fought him, thumping on the snow for a while, before walking home out of breath.

Zhengnan suddenly stretched out his small hand to hold her, his fingertips were coolly tucked into her palm, Cen Jin looked at him, his glasses were fogged up due to his panting, and he couldn't see clearly the eyes behind him.

She vaguely understands that Zhengnan is sure that Siting is not his real mother, and that his only hope rests on Jin's mother.If Jin's mother wasn't her own mother, he would be an outsider in this family—especially since the younger brother was about to be born.

He bickers with Jin's mother all day long, which is another kind of acting like a baby, trying to prove that he is just like his younger brother.

After dinner at night, Siting finally woke up from "hibernation".

Now she doesn't wake up during the day and doesn't sleep at night, she must say that the child in her stomach has inherited A Jin's genes, a typical night owl.The more powerful evidence is that she suddenly loves to drink coffee, and she can only drink low-cause coffee when she is pregnant, but no matter how late it is, she can't fall asleep without a cup.

Siting was sitting in front of the window with a cup of coffee in his hand, talking to the baby in his stomach, "Xiao Xiaojin, you are such a naughty bastard, your mother has dark circles under your eyes, can you go to bed early tonight?"

Cen Jin was by her side. For a while, she was busy with scientific research during the day, took time to take care of the house, and stayed up late with her wife at night. She was almost sleepy at this point of the day.

But she kept thinking about Zhengnan's problem today, and didn't stop talking about it until Zhengnan fell asleep.

Si stopped to think for a while, then said softly, "You can't hide it, not to mention this child is precocious."

"But you must never tell him the truth," Cen Jin said, vaguely recalling Xiaodu's tragedy. "The misfortune of the family will become a lifelong trauma for the child, not to mention the situation of his parents...you have to wait until he is an adult before we can tell."

Yes, the situation of his parents is comparable to a horror movie, Siting sighed, "Then let's say... say he is your child, you don't know how much he wants to be your child."

"Damn it, he knows how to bully me." Mama Jin felt aggrieved when she mentioned this.

Si stopped laughing, "Are you stupid? Nan Nan said that day that Jin's mother should change snow tires and asked me to call the car dealership. Also, your desk lamp is too dim, and he told me to change it after he found out. "

Jin's mother's mouth was grinning to her ears, Xiaopinan was so straight, always caring about people behind her back.

The next weekend, Si stopped for a prenatal checkup, and Cen Jin took Zhengnan along.

The baby was growing gratifyingly, and Cen Jin pointed to the sonogram and said to Zhengnan, "You were like this before you were born."

Zhengnan is woody and does not stand up to stubble.He didn't get an answer to his question, and he had been fighting with Jin's mother all week.

After returning home, Siting went to "hibernate" again, Cen Jin called Zhengnan to the study, showed him a photo, "Here, this is your dad."

The person in the photo is indeed Zhengnan's biological father, with a wide forehead, definitely not good-looking.

"This is a photo he left in the cell center. I don't know who he is, and I don't have his contact information. When I gave birth to you, it was like your mother gave birth to a younger brother. But I was too busy before you were three years old, so I had to Let your mother and grandma take you." Cen Jin said.

Zhengnan looked at the photo suspiciously. A ten-year-old child's IQ could be doubted. Any man Jin's mother could find was his father.

"Come here," Cen Jin pulled him in front of him, and opened the scanned image on the computer, "This is my photo, and this is your dad's photo. If our genes accounted for 50% each, you would look like this. "

The composite picture showed a rather handsome face, to be honest, it was prettier than Zhengnan's.

"Obviously, your dad's genes account for a higher proportion, let him be 70%, and you are like this." Cen Jin clicked the mouse again, and his face on the screen looked like Zhengnan, "Maybe you look like this at the age of 18, isn't it not bad?" ?”

Zheng Nan didn't say a word, Cen Jin said again, "Look, put a photo of him and your mother together, damn it, your mother only accounts for 30% and that's it!"

The boy on the screen is handsome and upright, and Siting's looks definitely overwhelm all layers.

Zhengnan thought for a while, then whispered, "Why are you looking for him?"

Hearing that he was not satisfied with his father's appearance, Cen Jin laughed, Zheng Nan covered her mouth, "My mother is asleep!"

"Okay," Cen Jin said in a low voice, "The domestic cell service is not perfect, so it's not bad, and besides, wouldn't it be more cost-effective to follow my IQ!"

Zhengnan looked down at the photo, then at Cen Jin, "You mean, you are like my mother... gave birth to me?"

"Yes, you were here at the time." Cen Jin pointed to his belly, "But you are more worry-free than my younger brother. I can eat and sleep when I am pregnant with you, and there is no delay in anything."

"That's because my mother took better care of you." Zhengnan was pressed into the chair by Cen Jin to tickle after finishing speaking, the little boy giggled, and Cen Jin asked, "Obviously I am your real mother, why do you always favor you?" mom?"

"It's what you said. My mother is Princess Rose. Whoever sees her loves her." Zhengnan said.

Well, Cen · There is no lower limit to pampering a wife · Jin punishes himself with three cups, and after Xiao Xiaojin is born, there will be many people who dote on Siding, how can three beating one be okay?

"A Jin—" Si Ting called again gently, "Ah, here we come!" Cen Jin hurriedly ran to the bedroom, Zheng Nan covered his mouth and snickered, since Jin's mother is her own mother, it will be more righteous to bully her in the future!

Siting asked in a low voice, "Did it succeed?"

Cen Jin nodded, "I tuned that software for a long time last night, it's safe."

Si stopped laughing, "That's good. Hey, Xiao Xiaojin kicked me just now, so hard!"

"Ha, do you blame you for not sleeping?" Cen Jin lay on Siting's stomach, listening carefully to Xiao Xiaojin's movement, and after a while, he was kicked, "Ah, he's a practitioner!" Cen Jin covered his hands Cheeks can't help but laugh.

Si Ting hugged her and lay down for a while, but couldn't fall asleep, and whispered with a red face, "I want it."

Cen Jin couldn't help biting her lip, maybe it was the effect of progesterone, Siting had a lot of appetite recently, her plump body had a certain temptation, Cen Jin poked his head, her trembling quickly ignited her, but after all, she was pregnant , Delicious dare not use too much.

"Three hundred rounds of unloading and fighting." Cen Jin sucked her reddish earlobe. It is said that it has been an itch for nearly seven years, but she is still fascinated by this woman's various appearances, and sometimes sees her on the road. The back is still throbbing.Whenever she introduces "my wife" to others, she can't help but raise the corners of her mouth. It's really itchy for seven years, and it will always be itchy for her.

Steve, the deputy director of the Harvard East Asian Institute, heard that Mrs. Cen was in labor, and organized a group of teachers to give her an AI cradle for primipara. Cen Jin was flattered.

"Cen, have you ever thought about staying at East Asia Institute?" Steve asked.

Is this an offer on behalf of the school?Cen Jin hesitated how to answer, after all, Professor Diao has been looking forward to her return to China, and has introduced her to undertake two national-level projects.

Steve said, "The study of Tang and Five Dynasties has just sprouted in the Institute of East Asia. Your joining has given us more confidence. Besides, the environment here is more friendly to your family."

Yes, foreign societies and laws are more tolerant of their special families, which is indeed worth considering.

"Thank you for your kindness. I need to ask my wife for advice." Cen Jin said.

Steve nodded, "Naturally. I'll wait for your good news."

While talking, Liu Qin's good news arrived first, and Lao Li climbed up to a Chinese-American relative who had turned eighteen corners, and finally got a visa, and he will come to take care of Siting soon.

Having not seen her mother-in-law for two years, Cen Jin was taken aback when she picked up the plane. The power of love is too evil. Liu Qin is radiant and light-handed. She has never seen her so young in her life.

Lao Li held Cen Jin's hand, "Daughter, is my daughter going to be born soon?"

Cen Jin laughed awkwardly, this old Li used to be the director of the street office, his wife died early, and he had no children.When Liu Qin first met him, she said, "My daughter married a daughter. If you agree, we will stay together. If you don't mind, you can let him down."

Old Li was overjoyed, "How are you two girls! Two little padded jackets, one for each of us!"

Lao Li is familiar with himself, and loves Zhang Luo. He has already cooked Chinese supermarkets in a few days. He eats fish porridge and squab stew at home.Cen Jin finally ate his mother-in-law's celery dumplings, and was so satisfied that he wanted to cry.

"When it comes to dumplings, chocolate filling is my favorite," Lao Li said, "It tastes like love."

Pfft... Cen Jin and Si Ting looked at Liu Qin at the same time, he smiled openly, this year's old people are very good.

During the Chinese New Year, the family had a big dinner in Chinatown. The red lanterns separated a small world, which contrasted with the western-style buildings outside, making it seem like a world away.

In the return taxi, a familiar melody echoed repeatedly, "Rouse and Les are both boys, and Rouse is a..."

"Yeah, I've heard this song before!" Si Ting laughed.

"Yeah, the song we played in school is so old." Cen Jin said.

The driver is from Cantonese, and continued, "The Chinese radio station here likes to broadcast old songs, and they don't know how to keep pace with the times."

Cen Jin smiled, "If you walk too fast, you will get tired. It's good to be nostalgic once in a while."

Just after the Spring Festival, Siting gave birth to a seven-pound boy named Cen Luran.

The crystallization of Cen Jin and Lu Siting's love is about to rise like a star.

Strictly speaking, this is a mixed-race baby who looks as cute as a doll.

Every day when Zhengnan came home, he would hang around his little brother, who was the only male in the family, and he hoped that he would grow up sooner than anyone else.

Spring is here, and Cen Jin's visiting student career will come to an end, and she still hasn't decided where to go.

One day when she came home, she saw Zhengnan talking to Aran in the nursery. Aran was holding a miniature globe, and Zhengnan told him in a serious manner, "This is Jiangcheng, see? My brother grew up in Jiangcheng. This is Shencheng, bigger than Jiangcheng, but with a short history... This is Nanjing, known as the ancient capital of six dynasties, and even more powerful than it is Xi'an, the ancient capital of thirteen dynasties..."

Cen Jin walked in and took the small globe covered with Aran's saliva. China on it was only the size of a fingernail. Where could I find so many ancient capitals?

She couldn't laugh or cry, and asked Zhengnan, "Can he understand you when you talk so much?"

Zhengnan blushed with shame, and said firmly, "I understand, but he just can't speak!"

Aran made two "woo hoo" at the right time, and Zheng Nan held his little hand, "Look, he understands everything!"

Cen Jin laughed to death, and suddenly figured out one thing, he had never been to the places that Zhengnan mentioned, if he didn't go back, the historical coordinates of his children would be nothing more than tourist spots for check-in in the future, what a pity.

The academic report in May is the most important special report in Cen Jin's current career, and it is also her curtain call at Harvard.

Siting brought the child to listen, and the institute specially allowed Aran to enter the arena—provided that he didn't cry, but fortunately, the child didn't like to cry at all.

Cen Jin was dressed in a formal shirt and trousers, and a pair of delicate low-profile glasses. He had a straight figure and a casual demeanor. His gestures were full of the calmness and confidence of an oriental scholar.Her two-year visit to Harvard added a new perspective to the study of the history of the Tang and Five Dynasties, cleared up different research ideas at home and abroad, and won rounds of applause from time to time.At the last moment, she knew she had to give Steve an answer.

"In summary, I think everyone can understand my decision better. I want to go back to the place where history happened, not only to explore the original appearance of civilization, but also for the new era that is being created. After all, all our exploration of history is to better understand into the future."

Steve smiled to express his understanding, Cen Jin looked forward, Si Ting hugged A Ran and waved to her, Zheng Nan had a faint smile on his face.

The sunshine of May shines all over the world.
