House Dad's Literary Life

Yang Yi looked at Mo Fei with deep affection and softly recited, “I have crossed many bridges, seen many clouds, and drunk many kinds of wine, but I have only loved one person at the best age!”

The poem was short and not at all verbose, but it perfectly expressed Yang Yi’s love for Mo Fei.

In fact, this expression was profound. Mo Fei would never know that Yang Yi was referring to his experiences over two lifetimes: having walked so many roads and seen so many sceneries, but loving only the one in front of him, Mo Fei, who was in her prime and blooming at her most beautiful moment.

The poem was very beautiful, written by Shen Congwen, the great writer of “Border Town” in his previous life. This was a love letter written by Mr. Shen to his wife, Zhang Zhaohe, when he was 26 and she was still his student. To pursue Zhang Zhaohe, Mr. Shen wrote hundreds of love letters, and this was just one of them.

Not just this one, Yang Yi has also read another passage that suited his beloved Mo Fei: “I was lucky enough to see you smile once again, next to the lotus pot that was scattered by the evening breeze. There was a fragrance in this smile, which did not surprise me at all, for your smile always had something more refreshing than any fragrance!”

However, Yang Yi had hesitated before choosing this love poem he just recited as his proposal because, in reality, the love between Mr. Shen and Miss Zhang was not as perfect as portrayed in this poem.

But Yang Yi later realized that he and Mo Fei were different from Mr. Shen and Miss Zhang. He and Mo Fei had similar personalities and hobbies, and it could be said that they both perfectly match each other’s best imaginations. Their union was a match made in heaven, not just a youthful impulse sparked by a small romance.

Then what did it matter if he used this poem?

So, after reciting the poem, Yang Yi looked at Mo Fei affectionately. He took the diamond ring from the box, gently raised it, and said softly, “I don’t want to search anymore, nor do I want to wait, because with you, my life is complete! Mo Fei, will you marry me?”

Mo Fei was trying hard to hold back, but a tear still slipped from the corner of her eye. She kept her lips pressed together but finally couldn’t help but smile, revealing a few pearly white teeth, her face radiating with joy.

“Actually, I have something to say to you too.” Mo Fei didn’t nod immediately but tried to say what she had prepared in her heart.

“If I had never met you, I could have endured loneliness…” Mo Fei forgot where she had read this sentence, but she recited it softly, “But now, I find that my world cannot be without you!” ƒгeewebnovёl.com

“Yes, Yang Yi, I am willing to marry you!” Mo Fei extended her left hand, and as she spoke these words with sincerity, her emotions finally burst forth. Her voice choked with emotion, and tears of happiness blurred her beautiful eyes.

Yang Yi gently took Mo Fei’s left hand and placed the diamond ring on her ring finger. The moment the ring was on, it felt like a ceremony had been completed, and a mysterious connection was created between the two of them.

“Why are you crying?” Yang Yi pulled Mo Fei up from the sofa and hugged her in his arms, gently wiped away the tears from the corner of her eyes and cheeks, and said softly, “This is a happy event, you should smile happily!”

Mo Fei nodded vigorously, hugged Yang Yi’s waist, and smiled brightly. Her tear-filled eyes turning into crescent moons, with tears of joy sparkling in her smile!

On the side, Xixi was blinking her big eyes at her parents. The little girl couldn’t understand the flowery conversation just now, but she could feel the strong love between her parents.

However, the little girl waited for a long time, and when she saw her father and mother still standing there hugging each other, motionless, she began to feel anxious for them!

That’s not right!

Xixi couldn’t wait any longer. She walked over holding up her heavy little dress and tugged at her father’s suit jacket.

It was only at this moment that Yang Yi woke up from his sweet and tender moment with Mo Fei. He looked down at the little girl in confusion.

“Papa, you haven’t kissed yet!” Xixi looked up and said innocently.

“You can’t kiss before marriage!” Yang Yi had said this before, but Xixi got it mixed up. Proposing and getting married are two different concepts, and Xixi didn’t understand it very well at the time. So, she thought that it meant no kissing before proposing, or in other words, there should be a kiss after the ceremony…

A happy accident!

When the little girl said this, Yang Yi and Mo Fei were both stunned.

Xixi thought her father didn’t understand, so the little girl instructed seriously, “You have to kiss Mama!”

At this moment, Mo Fei couldn’t help but burst into laughter. She recovered from her earlier emotions and happiness and returned to her normal state. She patted Yang Yi’s chest and playfully scolded, “You’re terrible! You’re teaching Xixi these things!”

Yang Yi opened his mouth, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. He felt wronged as well!

……

The next day was Sunday, and the Civil Affairs Bureau was closed, so they couldn’t get their marriage certificate yet. But Yang Yi still got up early, maintaining his good routine.

However, due to the joy last night, Mo Fei, who had been tossing and turning with Yang Yi until very late, was still sleeping soundly. Yet, a happy smile still lingered at the corner of her mouth, and her smooth, fair arm rested outside the blanket, with the ring on her ring finger clearly visible.

She couldn’t bear to take it off, because she said that once she went back to work, she wouldn’t be able to wear the ring temporarily! So, while she was still at home, she wanted to wear it as much as possible! Even last night, when she reached the peak, she gazed dreamily into Yang Yi’s eyes, and the hand caressing his face still wore the ring.

Yang Yi tucked her arm back into the blanket and affectionately kissed Mo Fei’s forehead before getting dressed to go for a run and buy groceries.

Today, Yang Yi was in a great mood. While shopping for groceries, the ladies at the market noticed something was up. They playfully teased him, asking if there was some big happy event going on.

After coming back to prepare breakfast, Yang Yi was also in high spirits, humming a song while stirring with a spatula.

Xixi was awakened up by his singing. The little girl, in her pajamas and rubbing her sleepy eyes, groggily walked out of the bedroom. She first skillfully found her “missing” mother in the second bedroom, then pouted and ran to the kitchen to complain to her father.

“Papa, Mama is not being good, she’s still sleeping in!”

Yang Yi was stunned for a moment. He laughed heartily as he ruffled his daughter’s little head, saying, “It’s not that your mother is sleeping in. She was just very tired yesterday, um, from working too much! So she needs to sleep a bit longer. You should be understanding towards your mother!”

Xixi tilted her head and thought for a moment with her still sleepy mind, then nodded and said, “Okay, but I didn’t sleep in!”

“Xixi is great!” Yang Yi smiled and picked up the little girl to wash her face and brush her teeth.

Then, he came back and continued to make breakfast for Xixi and Mo Fei. Today’s breakfast was very sumptuous, with crispy fresh milk, walnut peanut porridge, and a plate of fried banana pies, so it was a bit time-consuming.

Xixi couldn’t help but drool a little as she smelled the enticing aroma.

“Papa, I want to eat!” The little girl felt hungry.

“Coming right up! It’ll be ready soon!” Yang Yi was making the walnut peanut porridge. He smiled and comforted the little girl, “How about Papa sings you a song first? After the song, you can eat!”
