My name is Li Hongmei, and I happen to be 50 years old this year, an ordinary middle-aged woman. My life is not as turbulent as in the TV series, but I also have my own small fortunes. I posted a notice on the bulletin board in the community: "A 50-year-old woman looking for a wife does not require the other party to have a house and money, as long as she meets my three conditions, I will marry." The notice was like a small pebble thrown into the calm surface of the lake, causing ripples in circles.
"Sister Hongmei, are you really looking for a wife?" My neighbor, Aunt Zhang, knocked on my door early in the morning, still holding the notice in her hand.
"Yes, Auntie, I think it's good to be alone, but it's also good to have a companion. I replied with a smile.
Aunt Zhang shook her head and said, "Your conditions are really fresh, how can there be such a person now!"
"Auntie, don't I just want to find someone with the same heart, nothing else matters. I said lightly.
My three conditions are very simple: first, they must have common interests and hobbies, and they can accompany me to the park for a walk and listen to old songs together; second, they should have a kind personality, be able to respect me, have their own ideas but not be stubborn; and third, they should be healthy and be able to enjoy their old age together.
The day after I posted the announcement, the community room was bustling with activity. Everyone was talking, some were in favor, some were against, and some simply applied for the job.
"Aunt Li, my name is Wang Daming, I heard that you are looking for a wife, I think I meet your conditions. An old man who looked to be about sixty years old walked up to me and said with a smile.
Wang Daming is a gardening enthusiast in the community, and he usually grows flowers and grass in the park. He was not tall, but he was in good spirits, and there was a determination in his eyes.
I was a little surprised, I didn't expect anyone to apply so quickly. I smiled and asked him, "What do you think you fit into my condition?"
Wang Daming waved his hand and said: "I also like to walk, I like old songs, personality, you ask the people in the community, I am definitely a kind person." As for the body, I exercise every day, and my body is great!"
I smiled, thinking that this Wang Daming is really a straightforward person.
Just as I was about to talk, another figure in the community, Aunt Liu, came over. Aunt Liu is a warm-hearted person and a master of gossip. She looked Wang Daming up and down, and then said to me: "Hongmei, you have to keep your eyes open, although this Wang Daming is a good person, he has a daughter, I heard that it is very difficult." You have to be careful when you get married. ”
I was a little hesitant to hear it, although I don't mind that the other party has a family, but if the family relationship is complicated, I really need to think about it. I thank Aunt Liu for the reminder and decided not to rush to make a decision first.
That afternoon
That afternoon, I sat down on a park bench, ready to think. The flowers in the park are in full bloom, and butterflies are fluttering among the flowers. Not far away, several retired old people were playing chess, and the laughter was endless.
"Aunt Li, where are you!" a crisp voice interrupted my thoughts. When I looked up, it was the elementary school teacher in the community, Ms. Yang. She is young and beautiful, always full of energy.
"Hello, Mr. Yang. I smiled in response.
Teacher Yang sat next to me, and she asked curiously, "Aunt Li, I heard that you are looking for a wife, is this true?"
I nodded and said, "Yes, I want to find someone who can spend my old age with me." ”
"Well, it's not easy. You see, now that everyone is busy with their own lives, who has the time to apply?" said Mr. Yang.
As we chatted, I told her about what happened in the morning, including Wang Daming's application and Aunt Liu's reminder.
Teacher Yang thought for a while and said, "Aunt Li, your conditions are actually quite reasonable. But you know, at our age, everyone has their own past, some people may have children, some people may have had unhappy marriages. You need to be prepared. ”
I nodded in agreement. Yes, everyone has their own story, and finding a partner is not always easy.
Just then, there was a guitar sound from the other side of the park. We walked towards the sound and saw a middle-aged man playing and singing. His guitar is well played, and his voice is hoarse but magnetic. In the crowd of onlookers, some hummed along, and some clapped their hands. The atmosphere is warm and pleasant.
"His name is Zhao Gong, and he is from our community. Teacher Yang told me.
I was deeply attracted by Zhao Gong's singing, he sang old songs from those eras, and each one was gripping.
After Zhao Gong finished singing, I mustered up the courage to step forward: "Zhao Gong, you sing so well, I like it very much." ”
Zhao Gong smiled and nodded: "Thank you, Aunt Li, I also heard about you looking for a wife." ”
I smiled a little awkwardly, "yes, I didn't expect this to spread through the community so quickly. ”
Zhao Gong looked at me seriously: "I think your idea is very good. Actually, I was also divorced, my children were older, and I lived on my own. I've always wanted to find someone I can talk to. ”
I was a little surprised, I didn't expect Zhao Gong to have such thoughts. He seems to be very independent and has his own way of life.
Zhao Gong continued: "Aunt Li, if you don't mind, we can be friends first and learn more about it." ”
I thought about it and thought it was a good idea. Instead of rushing to find a wife, it is better to start with friends and get to know each other slowly.
That
That night, I was at home looking through some old photos and reminiscing about the past. My life has always been very ordinary, there are not many magnificent stories, but every scene carries my joys, sorrows, and sorrows. I think that whether I am looking for a wife or being friends, I want to share these simple and real moments with each other.
The next day, Zhao Gong and I made an appointment at the community's teahouse. Zhao Gong arrived early, and he was sitting by the window, holding a book in his hand.
"Aunt Li, you're here!" Zhao Gong stood up and greeted me with a smile.
We ordered two cups of tea and started chatting. Zhao Gong told me about his past, he used to be an engineer, because of his love for music, he started Xi to learn guitar after retiring, and his life was simple and fulfilling.
I also share my story, my life is ordinary, but I always try to make it colorful. I told him that I love gardening, I like walking, and I like to hang out with friends.
As we chatted, we found that we had a lot in common with each other and very similar views on many things. Zhao Gong's eyes were full of understanding and respect, which made me feel very comfortable.
As time went on, our interactions became more frequent. We participate in community events together, go for walks in the park together, and sometimes go to the market to buy groceries together. Slowly, I found out that Zhao Gong was not only talented, but also very considerate and caring.
One day, we went together to climb a nearby mountain. The mountain road is winding and the scenery is pleasant. We walked and talked, talking about the little things in life. When I reached the top of the mountain, I was deeply shocked by the view in front of me, and the whole city was in full view.
"Aunt Li, look at this scenery, isn't it beautiful?" Zhao Gong asked me.
"yes, it's beautiful. I said with emotion.
We just sat on the top of the mountain, looking at the scenery in the distance, and before we knew it, it was getting late. Zhao Gong took out the snacks and fruits prepared in advance, and we simply ate something on the top of the mountain.
At that moment, I suddenly felt that life can be simple, but at the same time full of warmth and happiness. Zhao Gong is not only a friend, but also a partner who understands me and can share life with me.
One night, Zhao Gong invited me to his house for dinner. His home is warmly furnished, with paintings of his own drawings hanging on the walls, as well as some old records from his collection.
The dinner was very rich, and Zhao Gong personally cooked and made a few of his signature dishes. We ate and chatted and the atmosphere was very harmonious. After the meal, Zhao Gong took out his guitar and played and sang a few old songs for me. Those familiar melodies evoke countless memories in my heart.
Zhao Gong's singing voice is very beautiful, he
Zhao Gong's singing voice is very beautiful, and his concentration and intoxication while playing and singing made me feel an unprecedented sense of calm and satisfaction. The music wafts through the room, with a warm vibe, which makes people immerse themselves.
That night, we talked late. Zhao Gong shared his love for music, saying that music gave him a second life and allowed him to find a new direction and passion after retirement. I listened to his story with a lot of respect in my heart. I also shared my love of gardening and how to find the joy of life in caring for each plant.
As time went on, my relationship with Zhao Gong became closer and closer. We are not only friends, but also confidants. Zhao Gong was always able to give me support and comfort when I needed it, and I tried my best to understand and support him.
One day, a small concert was held in the community, and Zhao Gong was invited to perform. I also went, sat in the audience, and looked at Zhao Gong on the stage. His performance was outstanding and won a round of applause from the audience. At that moment, I felt immensely proud and happy.
After the concert, we went to a nearby café together. Zhao Gong looked at me, his eyes were full of tenderness: "Aunt Li, I think we are not just friends. I don't know about you, but I really enjoyed the feeling of being with you. ”
I was moved by his words, and I looked at him deeply: "Zhao Gong, me too." I feel very comfortable and happy with you. ”
We just sat in the café, looking at each other, our hearts filled with sweetness and anticipation.
However, the good times were short-lived. Not long after, Zhao Gong's ex-wife suddenly appeared. She approached me and said she wanted to talk to me. We made an appointment to meet at a restaurant. She looked tired, but there was a determination in her eyes.
She told me that she and Zhao Gong divorced not because of relationship problems, but because she suffered from a disease and didn't want to drag Zhao Gong down. She said that Zhao Gong was a good person, but she did not want her illness to affect his life.
After listening to her words, I was very shocked and conflicted. I didn't know what to do, my heart was full of contradictions and uneasiness.
I decided to talk to Zhao Gong, I need to know what he thinks. We met on a park bench. I told him what Zhao Gong's ex-wife said.
Zhao Gong was silent for a while after hearing this, and then sighed deeply: "I didn't expect her to find you." Actually, I have always had a good relationship with her, and our divorce was purely because of her illness. I've been taking care of her, but she's always worried about dragging me down. ”
Listening to Zhao Gong's words, I felt a sense of sadness. I know Zhao Gong is a good one
I know that Zhao Gong is a good person, and his kindness and sense of responsibility are beyond my imagination. I looked at him deeply, my heart filled with mixed emotions. I asked him, "Zhao Gong, what are your thoughts now, and can we continue between us?"
Zhao Gong looked at me, his eyes revealing pain and struggle: "Aunt Li, I really like you, and I cherish every moment with you." But I can't ignore my responsibility to her. I don't know what to choose. ”
We sat on a park bench with no one to speak, and the scenery around us seemed to be eclipsed. I knew in my heart that even if Zhao Gong liked me again, it would be impossible for him to give up taking care of his ex-wife. This sense of responsibility is one of the reasons why I like him.
After a while, I said softly, "Zhao Gong, I understand you. You don't need to make a choice for me. We can stay friends and I will always have your back. ”
Zhao Gong looked at me, and a trace of gratitude flashed in his eyes: "Aunt Li, thank you for your understanding." I don't know what the future holds, but I promise, I'll always be your friend. ”
At that moment, although I was a little disappointed in my heart, I was more relieved. I know we all made the right choice.
The days flowed peacefully. Zhao Gong and I are still in touch, and we will participate in community activities together and go for walks in the park together. Even though we didn't become a couple, this friendship also made me feel fulfilled and happy.
One day, when I was walking in the park, I ran into Wang Daming, who was recruiting. He walked over with a smile: "Aunt Li, long time no see, how are you doing?"
I responded with a slight smile: "Wang Daming, I'm fine, what about you?"
We chatted. Wang Daming told me that his daughter had married and moved to another place, and that he was now living alone. He looked more at ease than before.
Chatting and chatting, I found that Wang Daming is actually a very interesting person. He has his own unique views on many things, and his conversation reveals a profound wisdom of life.
Gradually, my relationship with Wang Daming is getting better and better. We would go to the community library to read books and play chess in the park together. Although he is different from Zhao Gong, he also has qualities that I admire and respect.
Time passed slowly. I've come to realize that life doesn't always need a romantic love story. Sometimes, plain and real friendship can also bring warmth and strength.
I began to cherish my friendship with Zhao Gong and Wang Daming even more. Although I didn't find a "partner" in the traditional sense, I gained more understanding, respect, and companionship.
At the age of 50, I didn't find a wife who met my three criteria, but I found two precious friends. Life has given me an unexpected gift and I feel very blessed and satisfied.
