The two chatted in the living room, and the atmosphere seemed a little restrained. Chen Xuemei couldn't help but peek at Zhang Minghui, only to see that his expression was gentle and his eyes were firm, giving people a sense of stability and reliability. Where are you from, I heard from the agent that you are also living alone for many years, Chen Xuemei opened her mouth to break the silence. I'm from Dongcheng District, I used to work in a state-owned enterprise, and now I'm retired to take care of myself at home. I've also been living alone for years, and I haven't felt this way in a long time. Zhang Minghui sighed lightly. yes, me too. Since my husband died, I have been living alone until now. Sometimes I feel very lonely, so I will try to go on a blind date. Chen Xuemei's eyes showed a hint of loneliness. I understand how you feel. I have also been widowed for many years, and I am dependent on each other for my life. Sometimes I feel helpless, and I don't even have someone to talk to. But I thought maybe this blind date could give us new hope. Zhang Minghui reached out and gently held Chen Xuemei's hand, his eyes were full of warmth.
Just then, the doorbell rang again. Chen Xuemei got up to open the door, only to see several enthusiastic neighbors standing outside the door. Xuemei, I heard that you went on a blind date today, and we all came over to see how you were. An old man with gray hair said with a smile. Oh, is this your blind date, you look really energetic, and the other old lady looked at Zhang Minghui with eyebrows. Hello everyone, I'm Zhang Minghui. Nice to meet you. Zhang Minghui hurriedly got up to greet him. Oops, looks like you're having a good time! We won't bother, I wish you all the best on a blind date The old people rushed to say goodbye, but they still couldn't help but look back frequently.
Chen Xuemei closed the door with some embarrassment and walked back to the living room. The two fell silent again, until Zhang Minghui opened his mouth to break the atmosphere. It seems that you are very popular with everyone in this community. He said with a smile. Yes, we are all familiar with each other here, and we have a good relationship. Chen Xuemei responded a little shyly. That's great. I thought we might be able to slowly build a good relationship together here. Zhang Minghui stared at Chen Xuemei, his eyes overflowing with anticipation.
Chen Xuemei's heartbeat involuntarily accelerated, and she nodded lightly, her eyes flashing with happiness. At this moment, she seemed to feel that a new page in her life was about to be opened.
Zhang Minghui smiled slightly, solemnly held Chen Xuemei's hands Xuemei, in fact, I didn't come here today just for a blind date. I want to tell you that I have already decided in my heart that I am not going to leave today, regardless of the outcome.
Chen Xuemei was speechless for a while, and her eyes were filled with tears. For so many years, she has been alone, and she never thought that she could have such happiness again. At this moment, she felt more joy and security than she had ever felt before. I do, Minghui. She held Zhang Minghui's hand tightly and said with a smile I am willing to go through the last journey of my life with you.
The two hugged each other and cried, and the whole living room was filled with a happy atmosphere. Just then, the doorbell rang again. Oops, it's our gossipy neighbors again. Chen Xuemei smiled helplessly, stood up and went to open the door.
I saw a group of enthusiastic old people rushing in, their faces full of excitement. Xuemei, I heard that you and Minghui have decided to enter the marriage hall, so great, let's all bless you An old lady said with a bright smile. Yes, yes, we can't wait to see your wedding photos with another old man's eyes shining.
Chen Xuemei was a little embarrassed by their warm wishes, and hurriedly responded Yes, yes, Minghui and I have discussed it and are ready to get married next spring. We are all very happy to share this happiness with all of you. Oh, that's really good, the old people stepped forward to hug Chen Xuemei, their faces filled with heartfelt joy.
Zhang Minghui also walked out of the living room and greeted everyone one by one. They talked to each other and shared their life experiences and insights. You see, Minghui is really stable and considerate, and he is a good man at first glance. An old lady whispered to the people around her. Yes, Xuemei is so lucky to be able to find such a good object. The other old man nodded approvingly.
When Chen Xuemei heard their discussion, she felt very warm in her heart. Over the years, she has always felt lonely and lonely, until she met Zhang Minghui. Now, she finally has her own support and a warm family.
In the warm blessings of the neighbors, Chen Xuemei took Zhang Minghui's hand, and the two reported the good news to everyone together. Everyone stepped forward to hug and bless, full of strong human touch.
The years are merciless, but the emotions between people are indelible. Even if you have experienced a lot of sadness and loneliness, as long as you have a heart that looks forward to happiness, you will definitely be able to find your own belonging.
Over the years, Chen Xuemei has been trying to adapt to living alone, but there is always an indescribable loneliness and lack in her heart. It wasn't until today, when she met Zhang Minghui, that she found that happiness was right in front of her. Minghui, I really thank you so much. Chen Xuemei hugged Zhang Minghui tightly, and tears couldn't stop flowing, it was you who made me rediscover the meaning of life. Xuemei, I also want to thank you. Zhang Minghui kissed Chen Xuemei's forehead gently, it was you who made me regain my longing for life. We will definitely walk the last journey of life hand in hand and create a warm home together.
The two snuggled up to each other, as if they had found a long-lost sense of belonging. In the warm sun, their eyes intersected, revealing full of happiness and love for each other.
At this moment, Chen Xuemei felt as if she had been reborn, and her whole person was bathed in the light of happiness. She believes that from now on, she and Zhang Minghui will definitely work together towards a better future.
Just as the lovers embraced each other happily, cheerful singing and rhythmic music could be heard in the distance. It turned out that the elders of the community held a small celebration in the square.
Come and see, Xuemei and Minghui have finally entered the marriage hall! An old woman excitedly announced. It's great, let's have to celebrate! Another old man waved his hands excitedly.
I saw that the old people in the community joined in one after another, some were dancing cheerful square dances, some were playing harmonica accompaniment, and some were clapping their hands and singing in unison. The whole square was filled with a joyful and peaceful atmosphere, as if to send the most sincere blessings to the couple.
Chen Xuemei and Zhang Minghui walked out of the hut arm in arm and joined the lively celebration. See, everybody's happy for us. Chen Xuemei looked at the jubilant neighbors around her, and her heart was full of gratitude. Yes, we've finally found our belonging. Zhang Minghui smiled and shook Chen Xuemei's hand vigorously.
It's a very touching scene. The fact that a pair of people in their sixties were able to overcome many challenges and finally come together has undoubtedly injected a fresh breath of strength into the community.
It is not difficult for us to find that this pair of elderly people can achieve such happiness is not just their personal efforts. The support of the community and the care of the neighbours are undoubtedly the key to rekindling their passion for life.
Old people, although you are old, your hearts are still full of enthusiasm and vitality. Chen Xuemei sighed sincerely. Yes, our generation has gone through too much suffering and parting, but finally came together. Zhang Minghui looked at the old people around him, and his eyes showed deep gratitude. It is precisely because of everyone's support and encouragement that we have the courage to embark on this new journey of life.
When the old people heard these words, they nodded in agreement. Yes, we've always been helping each other and supporting each other. With everyone's concern, we will be able to get through any difficult time in life. A gray-haired old lady puffed out her chest and said in a firm tone.
That's right, it's because of this warm community that we're able to embrace happiness again. Zhang Minghui looked around and smiled slightly. I think we old men and women may be able to give some inspiration and encouragement to young people. After all, as long as there is hope and courage in the heart, anyone can be reborn. Chen Xuemei hugged Zhang Minghui's arm tightly, her eyes blazing.
Hearing these words, the old people present were all deeply touched. They all nodded in agreement, and some even couldn't help but applaud. Young people, look at us old guys, can we also find some inspiration and courage in life An old man said to the young people around him with a smile.
The young people looked at each other, some nodded, others remained silent. Perhaps in their eyes, the elderly lover is just a special case. But in fact, their stories undoubtedly contain broader social significance.
At this moment, Zhang Minghui and Chen Xuemei kissed together. The old people around erupted in warm applause and cheers, as if to send the most sincere blessings to the couple.
At this moment, the whole community is bathed in an atmosphere of happiness. However, only time will tell whether this happiness can be maintained forever.
