My name is Zhang Yu, I am 25 years old and I come from an ordinary rural family. The family was not wealthy, but our parents always tried their best to meet our needs. I have a beautiful and kind girlfriend named Li Xue. We've been in love for a long time, and our feelings for each other have grown deeper.
When we were getting married, there was a bizarre rumor in the village: there was a girl named Xiaoxia, who was born beautiful but was born blind. I heard that her parents died early, and all the brothers and sisters in the family were married, and she was the only one left. I felt pity for her, and offered to take her as a wife and to be her dependent.
There was a lot of talk in the village, some called me kind, others thought I was crazy. But I don't care what other people think, because I firmly believe that love is selfless, and I am willing to use my love to warm the soul that has lost its light.
Finally, we had a grand wedding. On the night of the cave room, I sat silently on the edge of my bed, holding an oil lamp in my hand, wondering whether to light it or not. Xiaoxia sat quietly on the side, her face full of smiles, as if she could see my anxiety.
"Zhang Yu, what are you hesitating about?" her voice was clear and soft.
I looked up into her eyes, which were full of wisdom and innocence. "I wondered if I should light an oil lamp. ”
Xiaoxia smiled, "What do you think?"
I was silent for a moment, "I thought, if I light the oil lamp, you can't see, will you feel lonely?"
Her smile widened, "No, because I've never relied on my eyes to feel the world." I can perceive you with my heart and feel your presence. ”
My heart was shocked, it turned out that she didn't need light, because her heart already had a lamp that would never be extinguished. I gently lit the oil lamp, and the room suddenly lit up.
"Thank you, Zhang Yu. She whispered, "Thank you for giving me a home." ”
I squeezed her hand, "Xiaoxia, from now on, I will always be by your side, protect you, and take care of you forever." ”
That night, nothing special happened to us, just quietly snuggled up to each other and enjoyed each other's warmth. I understand that love is not built on the outside and light, but on the connection and tolerance that comes from the heart.
Since then, Xiaoxia and I have lived happily ever after. Although she can't see the beauty of this world, her heart is brighter than anyone else's, because she has love. And I, because of her, have become more complete and happy.
