My name is Xiaoli, I am 28 years old, and I was born in an ordinary rural family. Both parents are hard-working and simple farmers, although their lives are not rich, but the family is happy, and their lives are warm and happy.
Four years ago, I had an unforgettable emotional experience. At that time, I had just graduated from college and was working as a clerk in a small company, and my life was plain and comfortable. However, by chance, I met him - a severely disfigured man who was known as a "monster".
His name is Cuong, and he is about the same age as me, but he was unrecognizable by an accidental fire. The skin of his face was burned unevenly, and his eyes were extremely scary because of the burns. Even though his body was almost recovered, that face became an eternal pain to him.
At first, I was full of curiosity and compassion for Cuong. Every time I see him alone in the corner silently suffering, I can't help but feel a sour feeling in my heart. Gradually, I found myself developing an inexplicable affection for him. His strength, bravery, and optimism touched me deeply, and made me feel that he was a man worth entrusting for life.
However, my decision was met with strong opposition from my family. They feel that Cuong is not only scary to look at, but may also affect our lives and the future of our children in the future. They tried hard to persuade me to give up the relationship, but I stubbornly insisted on my choice.
In the end, despite my family's opposition, I resolutely married Ah Keung. At that moment, I felt happiness and satisfaction like never before. I feel like the luckiest woman in the world because I found someone who truly loves me and understands me.
Life after marriage was not as good as I imagined. Cuong has low self-esteem and sensitivity because of his disfigurement, and often loses his temper over trivial matters. And I also felt a lot of pressure because I had to face the talk and ridicule of the outside world. However, we did not give up on each other, but supported each other and faced difficulties together.
In order to give me a better life, Cuong worked hard to find a job and earn money to support my family. Although his job was not easy, he never complained. And I did my best to care for him, take care of him, and make him feel the warmth and happiness of home.
Gradually, we learn how to get along with each other and how to face the challenges in life. Our relationship also grew deeper and deeper in the process, becoming an integral part of each other's lives.
Four years later, we are still living a simple and happy life. Although Cuong's appearance is still scary, we no longer care about the external things. What we value more is the harmony of each other's hearts and minds, and mutual support.
Whenever I see Cuong busy for me, I feel extremely happy and satisfied. I know that's what I want to love and live. I also believe that as long as we continue to walk hand in hand, the future will be even better.
Looking back on the past four years, I am deeply glad that I did not give up on Keung in the first place. Although our road to love is full of ups and downs and hardships, it is these experiences that make us cherish each other more and walk more firmly.
I also hope that our story can bring some inspiration and encouragement to those who are facing difficult times. No matter what difficulties and challenges we encounter in life, as long as we face them bravely and work hard, we will definitely be able to find our own happiness and beauty.
