Chapter 1597 Thanksgiving

On the morning of Thanksgiving, Huang Jingping was woken up by Amanda in her pajamas, "Mom, mom, get up quickly,"

"Yeah," she glanced at the alarm clock on the bedside, it was only 6:15!

Feng Yiping was not around, and an extra benefit for her was that she could sleep in in the morning, and she didn't have to get up with him at 6 o'clock, or accompany him for "morning exercises."

"Baby, stay asleep with mom for a while," today is a grand festival for the American people, but for her, it is just a day to prepare a turkey dinner.

Moreover, on such a day, Feng Yiping was not around, and it was really difficult for her to create a festive atmosphere at home.

Amanda was not impatient at all when she was forced to go to bed. "No, no, I want to see the big balloon,"

"Mom, watch the big balloon with me,"

"Okay, okay," she came to the living room on the first floor in her pajamas, holding Amanda, and turned on the TV with sleepy eyes. She changed a few channels and just saw the yellow balloon with the words "Macy's" flying away in the sky. The largest Thanksgiving parade in the United States, the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade, has already begun.

"Squirrel," Amanda pointed at the big balloon flying in the sky on TV and shouted. It was the funny squirrel that was chasing pine cones in "Ice Age".

Just like the Big Big Wolf in the popular "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" in China, who kept catching sheep but never ate them, even in such a parade, this little guy was chasing his pine cones miserably.

The big pine cone was just a few meters in front of it. It looked very close, but it was always out of reach.

Huang Jingping couldn't help wondering, what was he doing at this time?

The grandest parade in New York on TV was her best lullaby. She looked at her daughter sitting on the carpet and the Labrador dog lying beside her, yawning one after another and soon fell asleep again.

…………

Ma Ling woke up at six o'clock in the morning on this day. This was a habit she had kept since she and Feng Yiping got together. It was as if she could always agree with him on something no matter where he was.

But after getting up, she was a little confused. What should she do?

She didn't have to go to work, nor did she have to prepare for the Thanksgiving dinner now - it wasn't a big family, just her and her son, and it would be a waste to prepare too much food.

What would she do at home at this time? Oh, Dad and Mom would dress up neatly and take her and her sister Annie to the church.

But now she has no such intention. Apart from getting married or attending other people's weddings, how many young people in their twenties would take the initiative to go to church?

But this is always one of the most important festivals every year. Even if she doesn't care, she must let her son feel this atmosphere. She went to the bathroom and wiped her face with cold water, and walked into her son's room with full emotions, "Vincent, get up, let's watch the parade together."

…………

At nine o'clock in the morning, Wu Xinyang rang Zheng Jiayi's doorbell. Zheng Jiayi, wearing an apron, smiled and opened the door for her, "Xinyang, please come in,"

He looked behind her and joked, "Hey, why don't you bring that person too?"

"What is that person? What about you, do you have someone hidden at home? Hi, hello," Wu Xinyang shouted into the room with a smile, as if there was really a man hidden inside.

Although the two rarely get together, Wu Xinyang knows very well that Zheng Jiayi has not had a boyfriend for a long time in the United States.

She herself has had several relationships, both Chinese and Americans, but without exception, they all ended before the relationship was officially clear.

She couldn't explain why.

When it comes to dating, her level is not low. When she was in high school, she had already accepted the pursuit of several boys. Of course, she was always the absolute protagonist in those pink memories, and she was in control of everything with ease.

On the contrary, when everyone was busy dating in college, she had no experience because she had a deeper understanding of life.

When many other girls were happy or distressed about being pursued or being pursued, and when many classmates tasted the sweetness and sadness of love for the first time, she was very calm and objective. She scored her admirers and pursuers in her heart based on their current conditions and future development potential, and used the professional knowledge learned in class to select the people she could date.

Therefore, she has always been very reserved, and has always maintained a distance from many admirers and pursuers. She has not explicitly accepted anyone's pursuit, nor has she directly rejected anyone's pursuit.

It is better to look at the long-term situation. It is just a freshman. How can you tell who has more potential and who has less stamina?

In her heart, she was somewhat disdainful of those girls who gave themselves up so quickly. The future was so long, why were they in such a hurry?

But soon, Feng Yiping, who was not only good-looking and well-dressed, but always wandered outside the class and was not interested in almost all activities in the class except for attending classes, gradually became the object of her most attention.

It turns out that he drives one of the most expensive cars in the entire school, and the car is said to have been purchased in high school; it turns out that he has never lived on campus, but in a high-end villa near the airport; it turns out that the city Youjia convenience stores that we often see are his family's business, as well as Jiasheng Decoration, which has a booming business in many cities in China. It turns out that the entire Jiasheng Group is also owned by his family...

After that, even more shocking news came out. The head of the Jiasheng Group was not his parents, but himself...

In the second grade, after he published the monograph "Blue Ocean Strategy" through Harvard Business School Press, the few classmates in the class who had vaguely heard about it and had a great background and background, who were always interested in everything In front of the indifferent Feng Yiping, they all consciously put away all their arrogance.

Wu Xinyang soon lost interest in continuing to improve the list he made. Compared with Feng Yiping, is it necessary to analyze the people inside and outside the list?

However, Feng Yiping was also not interested in her...

"The craftsmanship is really good." Wu Xinyang looked at the scrambled eggs, bread, fruit salad, and cherry pie on the table. "If your parents knew that you were such a good cook, they would be satisfied but also heartbroken."

It's true. The last time Director Fang and Zheng Bofan came to the United States and saw their daughter's craftsmanship, they felt the same as Wu Xinyang said.

"That's good, but there's no food to go with the wine." She took out two bottles of red wine from the box she was carrying. "The ones given by others are the signature wines of well-known wineries in Napa."

"It's morning, you just want to drink?" Zheng Jiayi said.

"What does it matter? We can drink slowly until noon. Could it be that what are your plans next?" Wu Xinyang looked at Zheng Jiayi jokingly.

"What arrangements can I make? I'm worried about delaying you," Zheng Jiayi smiled, "You should be good at making crabs. There are some in the refrigerator."

The crab season in San Francisco starts every year in November, and the price is very affordable, far less expensive than hairy crabs in China.

"This is good, I've done it all,"

Half an hour later, the two of them were sitting in the living room, eating a large plate of crabs and drinking red wine.

"You think, wouldn't it be quite sad if people knew that we could only keep each other company during such a festival," Wu Xinyang laughed at herself.

"The Tony you had last time seemed pretty good," Zheng Jiayi said. "He's quite handsome and has a sense of humor. He's a middle-level employee at HP and has a bright future. Why do you think he's divided?"

"I don't know either," Wu Xinyang shook his head blankly, "Maybe you don't feel anything, or you still can't get used to their rhythm?"

"Miss, aren't you? Are you still pursuing perfection?"

"Why not?" Wu Xinyang asked, "Isn't that the case for you?"

"I, I can't tell," Zheng Jiayi pointed to the crabs on the plate, "Just tell me, is this Dungeness crab better than hairy crabs, objectively speaking?"

"Yes, so much crab roe," Wu Xinyang said, looking at the large spoonful of crab roe he dug out.

"But I just feel that no matter how much you eat crabs like this, or all other delicacies, there will always be an empty place in your stomach, like, like, how should I put it," she gestured and repeated, But I just can’t seem to find the right words to describe it.

"I understand, I understand," Wu Xinyang pointed at Zheng Jiayi and smiled, "Girl, you are saying that these things never get to your heart, right?"

"Haha, because you have what you think is the most delicious, many times you naturally feel that other delicacies are boring." She got a little closer to Zheng Jiayi, pointed at her chest and said, "It's because you have something in your heart. Alone, right?”

Wu Xinyang suddenly hit home what she was thinking, but Zheng Jiayi didn't panic at all. This is a quality that a qualified spokesperson must possess. Not only did she not panic, she also took the initiative, "Isn't that true of you?" she asked Wu Xinyang. .

This time, it was Wu Xinyang's turn to be speechless.

Yes, if that wasn't the case, why can't we see the best people now?

But, what's the use?

How could he look at himself now?

"drink wine,"

"Yes, drink," the two wine glasses slammed together...

…………

At 10 o'clock, Huang Jingping, whose eyes were a little swollen from sleep, led the beautifully dressed Amanda to the garage. "Shall we drive daddy's car?" she said, pointing to Feng Yiping's Yajun.

"Okay," Amanda was still a little uninterested.

"I tell you, Chinatown will be very lively today, there will be a lot of delicious food, and there will definitely be a lot of children,"

Hearing about the children, Amanda finally became somewhat interested.

Almost at the same time, Ma Ling was getting dressed with Vincent, "Do you miss daddy?"

"Think," Vincent said aloud.

"Then let's go to a place today where there are many people from dad's hometown, okay?"
