After the divorce, I started to transfer
Chapter 1619 It’s a pity that she is not the heroine
The beef soup made by Grandma Jenny is very authentic, better than any Chen Feng had before, with a genuine southern Fujian flavor.
Chen Feng praised her sincerely, which made the old lady smile.
After eating the beef soup, everyone chatted for a while. Jenny then remembered the birthday gift that Chen Feng brought, which was the gift box of premium Longjing tea, which Chen Feng had casually placed at the door. She quickly took it and gave it to Jenny's grandfather.
Grandpa Jenny had been much quieter since he went upstairs and stayed there for more than ten minutes. He didn't say much while eating beef soup.
After receiving this birthday gift from Chen Feng, Grandpa Jenny said a few nice words.
After giving the gifts, Jenny took Chen Feng to her parents' house.
Her parents already knew that she brought her boyfriend home, and they also brought him to celebrate grandfather's birthday together. The meaning is obviously different.
Therefore, her parents took it very seriously, including Jenny's mother Leslie, who had never taken much care of her family. She also came back home specially and waited for her daughter to bring her boyfriend over.
Jenny's parents' house is indeed very close to Jenny's grandparents' house. It takes less than ten minutes for the two of them to walk there.
It is also a single-family building with a similar structure, or it can be said to be a small villa.
The door also had a fingerprint lock with facial recognition function. After the two of them entered, they saw a couple sitting in the living room on the first floor watching TV.
Jenny's father, Li Wenbai, is almost fifty years old. His hair is a little gray. He wears black-framed glasses. He is gentle and elegant. From his personal appearance and temperament, he looks like a teacher.
Jenny's mother, Leslie, looks much younger, only about forty years old, but she is actually older than that.
Leslie has blond hair and blue eyes, a slender figure, and looks to be about 1.7 meters tall. He has a gentle smile and you can tell at first glance that he is a good-natured person who is easy to get along with.
"Honey, Mommy missed you so much, come and hug me."
Seeing her baby daughter come back, Leslie immediately stood up from the sofa excitedly, like a little girl, and ran towards Jenny, hugged her, and kissed her on the face several times.
Jenny looked helpless, and after letting her mother kiss her, she pointed at Chen Feng and introduced him, "Mom, this is my boyfriend, Chen Feng. I told you about him on Green Bubble."
Leslie then let go of his precious daughter, then looked at Chen Feng with a smile, and generously opened his arms to Chen Feng and said, "Welcome, Chen."
After saying that, she stepped forward and hugged Chen Feng politely.
This kind of hugging etiquette is quite common in Europe and the United States. Although Chen Feng is a little uncomfortable with it, he can still accept it.
"Thank you, nice to meet you." Chen Feng also smiled in response.
He had a good first impression of both couples.
Jenny then pulled Chen Feng to introduce him to her father: "Dad, this is my boyfriend, Chen Feng."
"Hello, Chen Feng, welcome to our home."
Although Jenny's father Li Wenbai did not take the initiative to greet the two, he also stood up from the sofa.
The following process was similar to what happened at Jenny's grandparents' house, which was drinking tea and chatting, but the method was a little different.
Jenny's mother Leslie was like a curious baby. She asked Chen Feng all kinds of questions and soon knew everything about Chen Feng's family background and work.
However, as a Christian who is passionate about charity, she did not ask about the Chen Feng Charity Foundation.
Although Chen Feng was a little curious about why she didn't ask, he didn't bring it up.
Li Wenbai, as a father, did not ask many questions. He just chatted with Chen Feng about the customs and current affairs between the two countries.
In this way, I had a very pleasant chat with Chen Feng.
After the four of them chatted for about two hours, Jenny took Chen Feng back to the boudoir on the second floor.
In Meilijia, it doesn't make sense for a daughter to live in a separate room when she brings her boyfriend home, especially since she is already 26 years old.
"I'm really sorry to bother you today. Do you regret coming with me?"
After entering her room and closing the door, Jenny asked somewhat embarrassedly and nervously.
Chen Feng shook his head and said, "No, why would I regret it? I anticipated this situation before I came here. Generally speaking, your family members are very friendly to me."
In fact, among Jenny's family, only her grandfather gave him a slightly unfavorable look at the beginning.
This was much friendlier than some of the experiences he had had in the girl's home before.
He had met Shen Lin’s parents before, Guo Mengyao’s parents, Liu Ying’s parents and elders… He had experienced all those scenes before, so of course Jenny’s family today was just a small scene for him.
Jenny relaxed after hearing Chen Feng's answer: "That's good, I was just worried that you wouldn't be used to this way of meeting parents."
Chen Feng resisted telling her that he was experienced in meeting parents, and just smiled and said, "I'm not worried about meeting your family, but at the birthday party, if all your relatives and friends surrounded me and asked me questions, I would feel a little stressed."
Jenny quickly said, "You don't have to worry too much about this. My grandpa and grandma don't have many relatives now. The old ones are almost all dead, and the younger generation doesn't have much contact with our family. The main ones are my grandpa's sister and my grandma's brother who are still alive, as well as their respective descendants. I told you before. Most of the others are my grandpa's friends and old colleagues. They are not familiar with me, so they will definitely not ask you questions. My grandma doesn't have many friends on her side, and she doesn't have much personal contact with those old colleagues."
Jenny had introduced Chen Feng before. Her grandfather was the only son in his family. He had two older sisters and a younger sister. Only one younger sister was still alive. The other younger generations were not very close to her family. However, her grandmother's brother was still alive, and the descendants of her grandmother's brother, including her grandmother's nephews and nieces, still visited her family.
But compared to the situation in China, the relationship between relatives here is more pure, and there aren’t so many messy things.
Chen Feng was confident that he could handle it.
"Okay, I understand. When the time comes, I will sit next to you, eat more and talk less."
"Yeah, that's what I mean. I don't talk much when I'm with these relatives. I'm not that familiar with them."
"Didn't you say before that you have a good relationship with one of your uncle's granddaughters?"
"That was when I was a kid. My grandma and my uncle lived close to each other, so Heidi often came to my grandma's house to play. Especially during the winter and summer vacations, Heidi would live directly at my grandma's house. I lived with my grandma at the time, so of course I often played with Heidi. But later, when I was in my teens, her family moved to New York, which was too far away from us, and it was inconvenient to contact her.
At first we would occasionally email each other, but gradually we lost touch. Later, when I graduated from college and started working, she came from New York to celebrate her grandfather's 80th birthday. I also went, and we met again and added each other's contact information again. But after so many years, of course, the friendship we once had is no longer there. She may not come to my grandpa's birthday this time."
Chen Feng nodded in understanding. The friendship in childhood seemed very pure, but they had not seen each other for many years, and it was really difficult to renew this friendship after growing up.
"Don't worry, except for a few gossipy people, most people won't ask you any more questions. You can just not answer them at most."
"Well, I'm relieved. Let's go take a shower together now. After all, we came here by plane, so it's more comfortable to take a shower. We can also change into new clothes." "Okay, let's go take a shower together. But don't do anything rash."
"...Just don't mess around. This is your home."
"whee."
……
It took the two of them almost an hour to take a shower, and then they each wrapped themselves in a bath towel and lay down on the bed together to rest, talking and chatting.
Soon, time passed by unknowingly.
Grandpa Jenny's birthday party was scheduled for six o'clock, so they had to go there early.
So, at about 4:30 in the afternoon, Grandma Jenny called and asked them to get ready and go early to the restaurant where the birthday party was to be held, which was located in Chinatown.
After Jenny agreed, she and Chen Feng each changed into a new piece of clothing and stood in front of the dressing mirror. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, and they looked a good match.
Jenny kissed him on the face with satisfaction, took his hand and said, "Okay, let's go."
The two went downstairs together. Jenny's parents were no longer at home. They left a message for the two of them, saying that they had gone to the restaurant in advance to help with some preliminary preparations.
Jenny's grandparents have only one son, her father. Now that Jenny's grandfather is turning 80, her father will definitely help.
Jenny drove her car out of her garage, a white Chevrolet that was very common here.
In fact, the restaurant was not far from her home, but she was used to driving, so she still preferred to drive there. It only took her five or six minutes to reach the restaurant where the birthday banquet was held - Longfeng Restaurant.
There is no doubt that this is a very old Chinese restaurant with an old storefront and old signboard, but once you go inside, it is clean and hygienic.
Grandpa Jenny’s birthday party was held in the lobby on the first floor of the restaurant, with a large sign at the door.
I thought they had come early enough, but I didn't expect that quite a few people had already come. Most of them were friends and former colleagues of Grandpa Jenny. They had already sat at two tables and started drinking tea and chatting. Grandpa Jenny was there to keep them company, and the scene was very lively.
Jenny brought Chen Feng over. Some of these people knew Jenny. After greeting her from a distance, they looked at Chen Feng with some curiosity at most, but did not come forward to ask any questions.
Jenny had no intention of taking Chen Feng to their table, but instead took Chen Feng to the hotel kitchen to find Jenny's grandmother and Jenny's parents.
Jenny's grandfather used to run a restaurant, and he's friends with the father of the owner of this restaurant, so of course he gets a discount, and he can also come in to the kitchen and check the ingredients, just in case.
Grandpa Jenny went to the front to entertain the guests, while Grandma Jenny and Jenny's parents were in the back kitchen checking the ingredients and supervising the preparation work.
After all, Jenny's grandfather has run a restaurant for decades, and under the influence of his grandmother and father, they are very familiar with the food industry.
Seeing Chen Feng and Jenny also coming to the kitchen, the three elders did not stay long and quickly brought them out of the kitchen.
At this time, a few more people came. When Grandma Jenny and the others saw them, they greeted them warmly. Chen Feng naturally followed them.
It was Jenny's great uncle's family, including Jenny's great uncle and aunt, his son and daughter, and his two grandchildren.
This great uncle’s granddaughter is Heidi whom Jenny mentioned before.
"Jenny!"
"Heidi!"
When the cousins met, they both looked very happy and hugged each other.
Heidi is actually a very pure-blooded Chinese, about the same age as Jenny. She can be considered a beauty in terms of appearance, with a good figure. She is about 1.7 meters tall, wearing a decent high-end business-style outfit, a dark blue striped blazer and trousers, a cream-colored shirt underneath, and carrying a Prada bag in her hand.
However, Chinese women like her have obviously been completely westernized. The most notable feature is that when she smiles, her mouth opens wide, making her mouth look a little big, just like those white girls in the West. But she does not have the reserve and subtlety of Oriental women who smile without showing their teeth.
In terms of skin color, I prefer wheat-colored skin because according to current Western aesthetics, wheat-colored skin is the healthiest and sexiest.
In addition, Heidi probably doesn't speak Minnan dialect or Mandarin, and she spoke English to Jenny.
After the two cousins had a brief chat, Heidi looked at Chen Feng with shining eyes and asked Jenny: "Who is this handsome guy? Is he also Chinese?"
"Yes, he is Chinese, um, he is from Dragon Country..."
"Ah, is he from Long Country?" Heidi looked a little disappointed and regretful.
"Hello." Chen Feng nodded to her out of politeness.
Seeing this, Heidi smiled again and asked in English: "How is your English? Are you here for tourism?"
Chen Feng said, "I guess I'm here for tourism."
Heidi's eyes lit up again and she smiled, "Your English is pretty good, and you have a New York accent, which is very similar to mine. I live in New York now, and you have a New York accent, so you must have been to New York, right?"
"Well, I've been there a few times." Chen Feng answered perfunctorily.
Heidi was about to say something else, but Jenny couldn’t bear it anymore and interrupted, “Heidi, he’s my boyfriend, his name is Chen Feng, and he’s from Xiuzhou, Longguo.”
"Ah, he is your boyfriend?" Heidi looked surprised.
Jenny was a little speechless, so she asked, “Are you surprised?”
Heidi shrugged and said a little embarrassedly, "I thought he was a younger generation of one of your family's old friends. This time he came with the elders to wish your grandfather a happy birthday. After all, your grandfather has a lot of friends, right?"
This is true.
However, Jenny shook her head and said solemnly: "He is not a young friend of my family. I met him on the plane when I was going abroad."
"Oh, then you two are really destined to be together." Heidi nodded perfunctorily.
"Yes, we first met and got to know each other a year ago, on a plane from Los Angeles to Shanghai. Then, this time this year, we met each other twice by chance on a plane from Singapore to Los Angeles. This is God's arrangement, don't you think?"
Jenny was happy to emphasize to others how she and Chen Feng met.
When Heidi heard this, she immediately felt sad. This really sounded magical, fateful, and romantic, but it was a pity that she was not the heroine. (End of this chapter)
