Chapter 38:

On February 4, 2018, there was a dense layer of snow in New York City. The snowflakes were so small that they would melt when they fell on the ground and would not stay for a while.
Han Feixu took Yiyi to Han Anni's home. Her home was in the center of Manhattan, less than one kilometer away from Lincoln Center. Han Feixu picked Yiyi up and asked her to ring the doorbell.
It took about two minutes before Han Anni opened the door. Seeing Han Anni coming out, Yiyi blinked her big eyes without speaking. Knowing that she had forgotten Han Anni, Han Feixu lifted her up and asked her to sit on her arm, "Yiyi, my grandma."
Yiyi's arm moved twice, and then he called out crisply, "Good grandma."
Han Anni laughed, "I'm so old. I couldn't speak when I saw you last time. Come in. It's snowing again. The plane will definitely be delayed today."
Han Feixu walked in and walked through the door. She put Yiyi down, and the little girl ran to the most conspicuous piano beside the French window, but she didn't move, just stayed on the side of the seat, novelty Looked at this instrument which is a behemoth compared to her.
Han Feixu took a look and confirmed that she hadn’t touched it randomly, and then closed her gaze back. Han Anni was wearing a high-necked white cashmere sweater with a pair of woolen dark gray wide-leg pants. She closed the door to Han Feixu. Asked: "Why don't you just walk from Philadelphia? There was an accident at JFK Airport last month and it was such a big noise. You are still taking your children, so you are not afraid to meet again?"
"It takes a long time to transfer from Philadelphia. It's the first time Yiyi takes a plane. I'm afraid she can't stand it."
Han Anni got her a bottle of juice in the refrigerator, "What about the private jet?"
Han Feixu paused after receiving the juice, "They don't know that I'm going back yet, I only told Shen Sangluo and Ye Mingxin."
Hearing her words, Han Anni's action of closing the refrigerator door slowed by two beats, "Does she know you have made a decision."
Han Feixu leaned on the kitchen counter, her gaze drifted towards her daughter again, Yiyi was looking at the antique metronome on the piano with wide eyes, she touched it lightly, the beat slowed down, she touched it again After a while, the speed of the beat became super fast, and Yiyi became interested, and she touched the pendulum after a while, then found the rhythm she liked, and started to move her head with the pendulum.
Han Feixu rubbed the glass of the juice bottle, "I don't know, but she can guess."
Han Anni nodded, "As for you young people, you can decide by yourself. If you need help, just come to me."
"Yeah, thank you, Auntie." Han Feixu's smile was very gentle, which was somewhat similar to Ye Mingxin.
Han Anni took out her mobile phone and glanced at it, "You sit as you please. My boyfriend and I have an appointment for lunch, and I will be back in half an hour. You are on a five o'clock in the afternoon, right?"
Han Feixu answered, "Yes, aunt, don't worry, we can stay alone."
She called Han Anni temporarily last night, saying that she was going to stay for a long time, and when it was time to go to the airport, Han Anni agreed with one bite. Afterwards, she remembered that she also agreed to lunch with her boyfriend.
Han Anni put on her coat. On the contrary, Han Feixu just took off her coat. She bent down and took out a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet. When she was changing shoes, Han Anni noticed the safety buckle necklace on her neck. , "This necklace looks familiar."
Han Feixu was taken aback for a moment, and she subconsciously touched the necklace, "Oh, this, this is my mother's. She often wears it. After she passed away, I would wear it."
Han Anni showed a clear expression, "Yes, I also remember that every time I return to China, my sister-in-law wears this necklace."
She smiled, "This necklace suits you well."
After speaking, she picked up the key on the hook by the door, "I will pack it back for you for lunch, is there anything Yiyi has to avoid?"
"She doesn't eat all seafood except fish and shrimp."
Han Anni looked at her in surprise, "Don't eat crabs?"
Han Feixu shook his head, "I didn't eat. Once I forced her to eat, she vomited as soon as I put it in her mouth, and she was too resistant.
Picky eaters are not a good thing, but Han Feixu didn’t know how to correct such picky eaters. Once, she made dumplings and chopped up crab meat to make fillings, but Yiyi didn’t even taste it, but just smelled it. At a glance, she smelled crabs inside, and then she didn't eat any of them.
Han Anni felt funny, "It's weird to be able to eat fish and shrimp but not other seafood. Then I will bring you two lasagna."
Sending away Han Anni, Han Feixu walked to the living room. Han Anni is a person who pays attention to the quality of life. She never watches TV, reads a book when she is bored, or plays the piano for self-entertainment. No matter what, she goes out to have fun.
Han Feixu took out the iPad and was about to wait for Yiyi to feel bored, so he showed her a cartoon. Yiyi ran to her and looked up at her, "Mom, there are so many books at my aunt's house!"
"Because my aunt is a professor, she is a very smart and knowledgeable person. Remember what my mother told you, which type of person in this world deserves the most respect?"
Yiyi's milky answer: "Remember, my mother said that old people and scholars are most worthy of respect."
Han Feixu raised an eyebrow, "Then do you know what a scholar means?"
Yiyi told her readily, "I don't know!"
Han Feixu: "..."
The phone was shaking, Han Feixu took a look, and pushed the iPad to Yiyi, "Watch the cartoon, my aunt's home has no TV, mom will answer the phone, you are obedient."
The garden baby's music rang in the living room, Han Feixu opened the glass door next to the floor-to-ceiling window, walked outside, and answered the phone.
The temperature today is not low. The highest temperature has reached six degrees above zero. It is the warmest day in recent times. Han Feixu pulled down the sleeve of the sweater and covered his fingers.
Even if she hadn't touched the violin again for nearly eight years, she would still subconsciously protect her fingers.
It was eleven o'clock in the evening for Shen Sangluo, and she had just returned home from overtime, "When are you in Beijing?"
"Seven o'clock in the evening, if it's not late."
Shen Sangluo: "It's impossible not to be late. I'll pick you up. You can dress your child warmly. The temperature in these two days is all below zero. It was ten degrees below zero yesterday."
Han Feixu's voice was very calm, "I know, I put her down jacket. You won't use it tomorrow, I will take her back by taxi."
"Where to take a taxi?"
"Lawrence Mansion, Ye Mingxin bought a new house there, and Yiyi and I will live there first."
Shen Sangluo sat on the bay window of her house with a soft cushion under her body. She couldn't help frowning, "Aren't you going to divorce her? Why are you still living in her house."
Snow flakes were flying in front of her eyes, Han Feixu took a step outside, she stretched out her free hand, and a cold touch immediately fell on her palm, "If I don't go back to her house, where can I go? I don't have a home. ."
"Moreover, I can't deprive her of the right to get along with Yiyi."
There was silence on the phone. After a while, Shen Sangluo asked, "Why doesn't Ye Mingxin pick you up, she is busy again?"
"I just told her that I will go back soon, but I didn't say which day, even if she knew it, she wouldn't be able to pick me up. She is a star, did you forget?"
"I haven't forgotten," Shen Sangluo replied lowly. She sighed, "I'll come back when you come back. Divorce is not a trivial matter. After all the formalities are completed, one year has passed. Or, don't you go back. It’s great to stay in the country."
Han Feixu thought for a moment, "I'm thinking about it. Should you go to bed? Go to bed first. If you have anything to say, I will meet you the day after tomorrow."
Hanging up the phone, Han Feixu turned and returned to the room. She opened her suitcase, took out a wine-red ultra-thin notebook from it, and opened the mailbox. She found that the lawyer had prepared the first draft of the divorce agreement, and she looked at the big picture. Han Feixu paused for a long time without turning the page down.
There is only the music of cartoons in the living room. When Yiyi watched cartoons, she was behaving and would not move. But in such a quiet environment, Han Feixu felt that her heart was in a mess. She slammed her notebook. Cover it, then tuck it back into the suitcase.
Xiaoxue only got off for more than half an hour. Han Anni stopped when she came back. Thanks to no more snow, the plane was not late in the evening. She boarded on time and came to the first-class two-seat, Han Fei Xu put Yiyi near the window and sat next to the aisle.
When booking the air ticket, she deliberately found this kind of seat that could divide the space. She was afraid that Yiyi would make trouble, so that there would be a partition and it would be less disturbing to others.
But she was too worried. Yiyi seldom makes trouble. When she arrives on the newest plane, she will not make trouble. She returned to Beijing smoothly. Han Feixu put on her down jacket and put her on The hat covered her small face before he led her off the plane.
Walking out of the airport, Han Feixu subconsciously stopped at the airport for a moment. This was her previous habit, because before, someone would come to pick her up, either her parents or Ye Mingxin, but this time, no one came.
She didn't tell Ye Mingxin when she would arrive, just didn't want her to send someone to pick her up. Anyway, the two would have nothing to do with her. No matter where she went, no one would stand outside the airport waiting for her. From now on, she will get used to this kind of life.
Han Feixu raised a smile, lowered her head and asked if Yiyi liked Beijing or not. When Yiyi saw so many people, she was scared to death. How could she still like it here? She hugged her mother's thigh tightly for fear of being squeezed. lost.
When I got into the taxi, Yiyi was not so scared and started to get excited. She kept counting how many people there were in Mommy's family, because Han Feixu said before that they came back for the New Year, and she would see a lot Many relatives, those are her family, they will like her very much.
Regarding the likes of others, Yiyi felt that she had to be courteous, so she counted it several times. When she thought that she would like so many people in the future, Yiyi couldn't help but smile.
Bringing a girl who can only giggle to the new home, she searched for it according to the address and found that the villa they were living in was very close to the inside. After walking for a long time, they walked there, rang the doorbell, and Han Feixu hugged herself. Yiyi, dressed as a chubby Dun, smiled at her.
The door opened, and Han Feixu looked over with a smile, but it was not the aunt who opened the door, but Ye Mingxin.
The smile on Han Feixu's face condensed, and she slowly retracted it. After more than ten seconds, she asked, "Why are you here, aren't you filming in Dunhuang?"
Ye Mingxin's gaze turned back from her empty fingers, and then a very faint smile, "You said you want to come back, but you didn't tell me when to come back, so I can only wait here all the time."
"Welcome home, Xiaoxu."
